adiyEn was thrilled
to know that Throukkudanthai Desikan ( Srimad GopAlArya Mahaa Desikan ) was
born at
" Selvam malkudi
ThiruviNNagar "
( Oppiliappan
Sannidhi ) as a result of the anugraham of Sri BhUmi DEvi SamEtha Sri
ThiruviNNagarappan as the avathAram of the Lord's GanDai ( Thiru MaNi/Swamy
Desikan) three hundred plus years ago . The parents from nearby RaayampEttai
arrived at ThiruviNNagar on a PurattAsi SravaNam day and worshipped the Lord and
recieved from the hands of the Lord Milk PrasAdham held in a golden Vattil
during their dream .Next PurattAsi PoorAdam
,a
male child was born to the elated parents as the amsam of Lord
Oppiliappan's ( SrinivAsan's) KOil MaNi .
Due to the
collective anugraham of the ArchA Murthys of VyOma Puri , Thirukkudanthai
(AarAvamudhan) and
Srirangam
(RanganAthan) , this blessed child became " VaiNavam Tazhaikka
vantha Maamuni " and became the KooDastar for the lofty Sri Munitraya
SampradhAyam .
Illustrious
sucessors to Thirukkudanthai Desikan after He attained Parama Pdham at the age
of 83 in the year 1782 C.E ( Plava Kaartikai Poosam) are : Srimath VazhutthUr
Andavan , Srimath ThirutthuRai PooNDi Andavan , Srimad PeriyANDavan from
Kaanchi ,who observed 55 ChAthur-mAsyams , Srimath ChinnANDavan

from Thirukkudanthai Azhagiyasingar
in the year 1905
C.E. ; Srimad KadanthEthti Andavan in turn was succeeded
by Srimad ThErazhundhUr Andavan , who gave Kaashayam to Mannargudi
Srimad Azhagiya Singar . Srimad ThErazhundhUr Andavan was succeeded by Srimad
AakkUr ANDavan , Srimad Tenpirai Andavan ,Srimad

Sriranga RaamAnuja MahA Desikan ascended the Peetam in 1989 after Srimad Mysore
Andavan during His 54th Thrunakshatram and has blessed immensely His
Sishya Paramparai as well as all Sri VaishNavAs .
Our Prayers are
for the
