===Note from HH Narayana Ramanuja Jeeyar Swami==

Priya Sriman Venkatji!
Jai Srimannarayana!
It is quite interesting to note your question, which is genuine. 
Sri Ramanujacharya Swamy sanctified this Earth with His divine present for 120
years. He purified this in 1017 to left to His divine abode in 1137, according
to English calander. His Avathara star is A:rdra in Me:sharasi,which usually
come during Vaisakha. ( This year it came in Chaitram only, but it is rare) 
His Thi:rtham Na:l is not observed, for, A:charya's thi:rtham na:l should be
observed only by the direct disciples, during their days. so most of the
people forgot the Thi;rtham Na:l of Sri Ramanuja. 
There is a slo:ka in Guruparampara about this it is written here;

Sakabde: thu u:na shashtyuthha raika sa:hasrike: thattha:, 
Maghe: sukla dasamya:m sad va:sare: guru na:make: |
nabho; madhhyam gathe: su:rye: pradi:ptha:gni sama prabhe:
sri:mad yathipathis se:shadhamani antharadhhavisath ||

It says "saka year 1059, magha month, sukla paksham, dasami thitthi, 
Thursday, noon" Sri ramanuja entered his own abode as Adi Sesha.
