Thirukkacchi Nambi birthday : Feb 29 , 2004: MaasiRohiNi Nakshathram :here is an article from an earlier posting :Dear Members of the Prapatti Group: Today , we will be celebrating the birthday of one of the greatest Vaishnavite Acharyas , Sri Thirukkacchi Nambi. I will send the translations and commentaries on Sri DEvarAjAshtakam of Thirukkacchi Nampi , which is beautiful to reflect on. V.Sadagopan THIRUKKACCHI NAMBI Thirukkacchi Nambi (Kanchi Poorna Muni)
is known for his Thiruvaalavatta (Fan) Kainkaryam for
Sri Varadaraja(Devaraja) Perumal of Kanchipuram. He
had the great and unique honor to have the conversations
with Sri Varadaraja . His role as a mentor for Sri Ramanuja
has been well-chronicled in the Guru Parambhara Prabhavam.
He got the answers from Sri Varadaraja for the questions
of Sri Ramanuja which start with "Ahameva Param Tatvam ".
( Other devotees are requested to follow this thread .)
This great soul was successful in persuading Sri Varadaraja
to break His Archa Samaadhi and speak to him in this Kali Yuga.
His devotion for Sri Varadaraja and his uninterrupted service for the
Lord is legendary. His great Bhakti for the Lord of Kanchi and his
concern for the struggling Samsaaris joined together and led to
his moving composition known as Sri Devarajaashtakam .
Azhwaar AchaaryaaL thiruvadigaleh Saranam,
