Srimathe Ramanujaye namaha
Dear Srivaishnavas
Adiyen wish to convey my special Thanks to Varadhan in this reg and also at
the same time wish to bring to your notice that the magazine earlier
published by Swamy is now getting reprinted by SriVaishanava Sri ,
Krishnamachariar and its getting a new look.
At this time I wish to inform you that I have subscribed initially 4 copies
for myself and others at US and got the first package from him also.
So, now if any one wants to subscribe for that magazine pl let me know. The
articles from Swamy are so beautiful even Adiyen can understand and learn
progressively.

Our initial aim is to learn through the various Upanyasam tele-lectures, I
am sure that US Srivaishnavas are more fortunate than any one else to hear
such wide variety and knowledgeful Upanyasams from great Acharyas who are
taking so much of strains(though they never feel so) in explaining to us
including QA session at late hours, I could see His Nerhethuva Kripa in this
reg., nothing more can suit this case.
After doing so much of home work , I think we should progress further and
should read monthly magazines and get ourselves clarified with all
information and knowledge. Any clarification that we need while reading can
be posted to mailing list or raise during QA sessions.


Sorry for the detailed message, Adiyen wish to inform US resident
Srivaishnavas to just mail me if they are interested in getting the
follwoing magazines

Ramanujan- The magazine getting republished by SriVaishnava Sri

PanchaSanyam and Thiruvarangan Nagar Ula
- Monthly magazine from SriVaishnavaSri

YathirajaPaduka- By Dr.VV Ramanujam (publishing for last 2 decades)

Pl note that I am also talking to Dr.MA VenkataKrishnan Swamy to get
Geethacharyan magazines here.

By subscribing, we are not only getting enriched but also serving various
SriVaishnava Kaimkaryam which I will mail later.

I would request feedback from Srivaishnavas residing in US in this reg.

Thanks to Varadhan for laying a good platform for me.



Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan
