Sri: Sri MalOla Dhivya PaadhukAbhyAm nama: Dear BhakthAs of Sriman NaarAyaNa PaadhukAs (Swamy NammAzhwAr) : adiyEn would like to share with you recent communication between adiyEn and Sri Sriram SrinivAsan , the creator of Sripedia archives to house the postings of Oppiliappan , Raama Bhakthi and Sri Ranga Sri (http://www.ibiblio.org/sripedia ) and Microsites on Yajur SaakhA SandhyA Vandhanam , Sri VenkatEswara AshtOttharam et al ( What is New section in the above URL ) . Sri Sriram SrinivAsan has been exceptionally generous with his time and computer expertise to help archive source material for the aasthikA community . It is my bhAgyam to work with him and benefit from his significant experience with " Know How " to serve our community of AasthikAs through Computer (Emerging Internet ) Technologies . Sri Sriram and adiyEn concur now that the release of a Monograph to bring out the genius of Swamy Desikan as a poet in creating Chithra Paddhathi for Lord RanganAtha with its matchless Syllabic and Geometric Mastery would be a valuable Kaimkaryam . The current postings on Sei RanganAtha PaadhukA sahasrams 1008 slOkams including the FOUTY SLOKAMS of CHITHRA PADDHATHI are already there in the Sripedia archives : http://www.ibiblio.org/sripedia/ebooks/vdesikan/rps We plan to add to the current content of Chithra Paddhathi there with AchArya anugraha BhAshaNams, detailed comments on the brilliant (audacious) geometrical matrix frame work behind the words of the 40 slOkams of the Chitra Paddhathi : http://www.ibiblio.org/sripedia/ebooks/vdesikan/rps/chitra.html The leaps of poetic imagination and the incomparable skills in constructing the slOkams in different kinds of Chithra paddhathi by Swamy Desikan would be of interest not only to our SampradhAyins but also to modern day Scientists and Engineers as well . We need help in three specific areas to execute this project : 1. A skilled Graphic artist in India or overseas with Photoshop skills to construct the Chitrams (Yanthrams) . 2. An Editor in India with excelent editing skills and knowledge of Sanskrit to edit the prepared texts , fix any errors in writing , spelling and syntax . 3. An India-based aasthika familiar with the publishing world , who could present proof read galleys to appropriate publisher and get them published in the book form . Please let me know of your interests to take part in this kaimkaryam in any one of the above three areas to bring this book out . Your financial support for realize this book would also be welcome .
