SrI:
 
Dear Swamy  Desika BhakthAs:
 
On November 13 , 2003 ,  the 150th anniversary of the birth of one of
the greatest Sholars/AchAryAs and authorities of Swamy Desikan's
and AchArya RaamAnujA SrI Sookthis will be celebrated at Kaanchipuram .
This great AchArya of blessed memory was born in Thirupputkkuzhi
dhivya dEsam .He belonged to the Taata Desika Vamsam.
 
Dr.SaTakOpa TatachAr Swamy , who has devoted his life to
NithyArAdhana Kaimakryam at ThUppul Swamy Desikan and
Lord DhIpa PrakAsan Sannidhis is taking the initiative to have
Veda PaarAyaNam for four days, Sadas and TadhIyAradhanam to
celebrate the blessed memory of this great AchArya , who
devoted His life to the advancement  Bhagavath RaamAnuja Darsanam
in general and Swamy Desikan's contributions in particular to
this Darsanam .
 
Thirupputkkuzhi Swamy took control of Swamy Desikan's sannidhi
at Thuppul and restored it back to its former glory after an unfortunate
period of confusion there. His vamsatthAr are carrying on that important
work all the way down to today .
 
The traditions behind the MangaLaasAsanam of
Swamy Desikan at Lord VaradarAjan's temple that
I wrote about last year and this year is linked
with this MahAn . This year on October 5 (PurattAsi
SravaNam day ) , that celebrated MangaLAsAsanam
took place and the SrI Sookthis of Swamy Desikan
selected by HIM for recitation at the appropriate
Sannidhis and on top of Hasthi Giri were recited .
 
Thirupputtkkuzhi ( Thirupuukkuzhi) is the dhivya dEsam with
SrI Maragathavalli SamEtha SrI Vijayya Raghavan presiding over
as the dhivya dampathis . They reside on the banks of
JaDAyu PushkaraNi .AchArya RaamAnuja studied under
Yaadhava PrakAsar here ; later YahdavprakAsar became
the sishya of AchArya RaamAnujA. Swamy  Desikan's ParamArTa Sthuthi
saluting Lord Vijaya Raghavan as " RaNa Pungavan , Aahava Pungavan
was born here  .SudarsanAshtakam of Swamy Desikan also took its
origin here . Thirumangai's two Paasurams perform MangaLAsAsanam
for the dhivya Dampathis here . Sudarsana Soori , the student of
NadAthUr AmmAL and the author of Srutha PrakAsika is said to have
resided at Thiruppukkuzhi. All amAvAsyais in general and Adi AmAvasyais
in particular are celebrated grandly here .There is a separate sannidhi
for JadAyu here. The maNDapam where Yaadhava PrakAsar and
AchArya RaamAnujA had VedAntha VichAram is near the ANDAL 
Sannidhi in the South West corner of the temple. This KshEthram is
few kilometers from Kaanchi VaradarAjar Temple.
