We are blessed to have upanyasam on "svAmi koorattAzhvAn Vaibhavam" on Sunday Feb 08, by srI parAsara badrinArAyaNa bhattar svAmi of srIrangam who comes from the great lineage of svAmi koorattAzhvAn . Date and Time: Sunday , Feb 08, 2004 9AM CST. For those of you who have not heard Sri Parasara Badri Bhattar before, here is a brief introduction to swami: ========================================================= srI badrinArAyaNa parAsara bhattar svAmi comes from the great lineage of svAmi koorattAzhvAn and svAmi parAsara bhattar. svAmi koorattAzhvAn and svAmi parAsara bhattar are known to everyone, and their immeasurable contributions to the rAmAnuja sampradAyam is very well known. srI badrinArAyaNa bhattar continues the service to the rAmAnuja sampradAyam as one of the current descendants of svAmi koorattAzhvAn. He has undergone kAlakshEpam for many years (and is continuing to undergo kAlakshEpam in advanced topics) from great scholars in srIrangam (such as vaikuNTavAsi "kOrukoNda" parAsara bhattar, srIrangam srIbhAshya vidwAn srI narasimhAchAriAr, srI vELukkudi krishNan svAmi). Even at a young age, he has been running a pATasAla "bhattar kuzhAm" in srIrangam, where he teaches nAlAyira divya prabhandham, stOtras and rahasyAs to more than 50 students every day. These students range from young children to retired people. svami also runs a library "gnAna pirAn" which houses the treasures our sampradaya in the form of books. srI badri nArAyaNa bhattar's upanyAsams are of the utmost brilliance and simplicity. His renditions of svAmi parAsara bhattar's thirumanjana kattiyams are said to be very wonderful by learned scholars. In fact, recently an elder of the sampradAyam said "If one was wondering how the child-genius svAmi parAsara bhattar would have looked like in his years, one need to look no further than srI badri svAmi!". In spite of his extremely busy schedule on vaikuNTa EkAdasi dAy, svAmi has agreed to spend an hour and a half with us in sharing the anubhavam of Sri Vaikunda Ekadasi. We urge everyone to attend this upanyAsam and immerse themselves in the nectar of bhavad guNa anubhaavam and bhAgavatha guNa anubhavam. =============================================================== azhvAr emberumAnAr jeeyar thiruvadigale saranam jeeyar thiruvadigale saranam irAmanusan adiyArgal. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
