Dear SrI Rajagopalan Narayanan:
You are right .It was an oversight . There
are
only 44 PaadhukAs as of now. May our current Jeeyar
live to be one hundred and beyond
!
You are welcome to consider supporting this
Kaimakryam .
The PaadhukAs of the 42nd , 43rd and 44th Jeeyar
has been
protected with the silver Kavacham as of
now.
As of today , Three AchArya PaadhukAs have
sponsors .
These are the 1st , 2nd and 6th Azhagiya Singars .
Therefore , we have ony 38 PaadhukAs to take care of now
for posterity .
I request all bhakthAs to consider support for the
project
YathA Sakthi.

Lakshmi Nrusimha ParabrahmaNE Nama :
Dear AaasthikAs and AchArya
AbhimAnis :
Sri Ahobila Matam owes its origin to Ahobila MalOlan
, who initiated directly SrI Aadhi VaNN SaThakOpan as the FIRST
Jeeyar of the revered Matam in the year 1398 C.E . It was a BahudhAnya (
BahudhA + anya ) year , which is different (anya) in many ways (bahudhA
) than other years .
Since the appointment of SrI Aadhi VaNN
SathakOpa Jeeyar to become the MalOla PaadhukA Sevakan , the Jeeyar
observed 60 ChAthur Maasyams and fulfilled the wishes of the Lord by
travelling with the Lord's archA Moorthy to bless one and all with Pacha
SamskAram and SaraNAgathy/Prapatthi. This celebrated Matam and
their 45 PeetAdhipathis have now completed 608 years of
continous service to MalOlan as His Dhivya PaadhukA SEvakAs
.
Each one of the 45 AchAryAs of the Ahobila Matam have
been blessed with SrI Nrusimha SaakshAthkAram and are avathAra
PurushAs . Their Manthra siddhi , Pravachana Sakthi , AchAram and
anushtAnam are matched only with their ability to intercede on our
(SamsAris' ) behalf with SrI Lakshmi Nrusimhan to accept our aathma
nivEdhanam/SamarpaNam . MalOlan listens to them and we are saved from the
reentry into this SamsAra BhUmi at the end of our physical
existence .
Such is the glory of the 45 AchAryAs , who have
adorned the throne of SrI Matam and performed wonders with the power
delegated to Them by Their AarAdhana Moorthy , SrI MalOlan .
The
PaadhukAs of all the 45 AchAryAs are worshipped every day at the SrI
matam and on special days , the Paadhukais recive special AarAdhanam and
AbhishEkam and we are blessed with the PaadhukA theerttham for our
internal purification .
Fourty of the PaadhukAs over time have worn
out and need reconstruction over the existing form . This is the
JeerNOtthAraNa Kaimkaryam that is about to be launched now .
This
PaadhukA JeerNotthara Kaimakryam project has been approved personally by
the Revered 45th Jeeyar ( Prakrutham Azhagiya Singar ) , SrI NaarAyaNa
YathIndhra MahA Desikan today during His KaalkshEpam on
ThirunedumthANDakam .
AdiyEn invites you all to select a particular
AchArya Paadhukai as Your own to be linked with in this MahA Kaimkaryam .
AdiyEn has sought the permission of my AchAryan and the Current
Jeeyar to sponsor the reinforcement and consecration of the
Silver PadhukA of SrI Adhi VaNN SaThakOpa Jeeyar . adiyEn is blessed to
learn that Prakrutham Azhagiya Singar has conferred on adiyEn the
BhAgyam of being linked with Adhi VaNN SathakOpa Jeeyar's Paadhukai to
start the project in a systematic way .
AdiyEn invites all SrI
Nrusimha BhakthAs to join in and create the new set of PaadhukAs and
have them consecrated during this year . Each set of Silver
PaadhukAs would need 900$ for exclusive sponsorship. The
individual AchArya Paadhukais can also be collectively sponsored by
Family and friends .
The samarpaNams are totally Tax free as long as
they are routed thru either Ahobila Matam of North America or through
SrI RanganAtha Temple of Pomona , NY .
We need 39 full sponsors
or 200 partial sponsors to raise the funds to complete this PaadhukA
Kaimkaryam , which will last for many , many years .
At this
time , adiyen is only seeking pledges and reserving the individual
AchArya PaadhukAs of interest to the aasthikAs ( From 2nd Pattam to
the 41st Pattam SrImath Azhagiya Singars ).
Please let adiyEn know of
your interests and special choices among the Paadhukais that you wish
your Family to be associated with in the context of this Kaimkaryam
.
Your choice may depend on the links to their Thiru
nakshathrams , AvathAra Sthalams , SrI Sookthis and number of other
unique things such as many anniversaries in your personal lives (
Birth of a Baby , Yaj~nOpaveetham , VivAham , Shasthi abdha Poorthy ,
SathAbhishEkam , career growth , business succes et al ).
adiyEn
will write briefly on the sacred AchAryAs and high lihgt their Vaibhavams
in the subsequent postings related to this specail project
.
