Sri Parthasarathi thunai
Srimathe rAmAnujaya Namaha
Sri Vara Vara MunayE Namaha

Dear bhagavatas,

All of us know that our sampradayam stands on two main legs, the pramanam (the 
source or the vedas) and the prameyam (emperuman, the ultimate to be attained). 
The great mahans who has got to our knowlegde the prameyam with the help of the 
pramanams are called as the pramAthas. The twelve azhvars are considered as the 
pramAthas who through their prabhandams (arulicheyals) showed us the prameyam. 
The vedas are otherwise called as "marai" as it hides the inner meaning which 
it actually intends to convey. But due to their divine mercy on all of us the 
azhvars without hiding or leaving any doubt clearly shows us the parathathvam. 
Not stopping with talking about the greatness of emperuman they also tell us 
about his sowlabhyam (quality to be easily attainable) and further shows us 
that the paramathma who took rama or krishna 
avatara can be easily seen today even by agnAnis like us - "anjuvai amudhu 
andru aliththAnai thiruvallikeni kandEnE" says thirumangai azhvar (If you want 
to have darshan of the emperuman who blessed the devas with amrutham go now to 
thiruvallikeni and see him). If you want to see that beautiful chakravarthi 
thirumagan now run to thiruvallikeni, if you want to have darshan of that 
narasimhan who came to rescue prahladan visit 
thiruvallikeni at once. 

Can anyone bless us with any other better gift? We should all be very very 
grateful to the azhvars, who have blessed us with the divine 4000 paasurams 
which are sweet to hear, recite and enjoy. On top of everything the paasurams 
give peace to our minds and enlighten us with a cult of knowledge. It is our 
duty to show our gratefulness towards them. How to do it? Learn, recite, listen 
to the sweet prabhandams and make others 
do the same which will give happiness to all including the azhvars and 
emperuman himself. Whatelse can we do for the great works of the azhvars.

The Thennacharya Srivaishnava Sri pAdam ThAngigal Sabhai in thiruvallikeni, the 
great people who do the service of lifting the lord with the simple aim of 
doing kainkaryam to the almighty all through the year, every year arrange for 
the recitation of the nAlayira divya prabhandam of the divine azhvars in a 
single day. It might be surprising to many who havent had the bhakyam to grace 
this occassion. Can all the 4000 be recited 
in a single day? Yes. To enjoy the same visit thiruvallikeni on Sept.14 2003.

The grand ghosti will start at 6.00 A.M on Sept.14th starting with 
thiruppallandu the arulicheyal ghosti will go on till 10.00 in the night 
without any halt. The volunteers from the Sri pAda thAngigal sabhai fill not 
only the ears of those who visit but also their stomach with a number of 
prasadams distributed at various times (this will be in accord with the 
paasurams). This is one day and a very rare day. 

Postpone all your other engagements and make yourself present in "yedugiri 
yethirAjeeyar matam, East Tank-Square street,Thiruvallikeni" for 
the grand "Ekadina nAlayira divya prabhanda vAkyagnam"

DONT MISS IT AND LATER FEEL FOR THE SAME.

On behalf of the SripAda thAngigal sabhai, thiruvallikeni adiyen welcomes all 
of you to grace the rare but divine occasion happening under the divine feet of 
parthasarathi emperuman. If you are interested to join this divine kainkaryam 
by sending your contributions please mail adiyen at sumivaradan@xxxx or you can 
send the amount to the following address personally,
