||    A tribute to His Holiness , the 44th Jeeyar of Sri Matam    ||

MukkUr Muni Pungavar ( Sri Vaikunta Vasi SrivaNN SatakOpa Sri VedAntha Desika YathIsvarar )

Yesterday was AvaNI hastham , the birth day of one of the greatest yathisvarALs , who sat on the throne of AhObila Mata Peetam as the 44th SthAnAdhoathi Of Sri matam .

He is the great AchAryA , who built the southern Gopuram for Sri RanganAthA . His parent's name in this world was Sri RanganAthan and Srimathi RanganAyaki. He performed the loftiest Kaimkaryam to Sriranga Divya Dampathis , Sri RanganAyaki SamEtha Sri RanganAthan at a ripe age as Kaimkaryam by a vayOvruddhar to another vayOvruddhar . His unlimited mercy and dayA are well documented. At our house in ThiruviNNagar, our family had the great BhAgyam of receiving his Ponnadi, when he stayed twice for a few days . It is my great bhAgyam to dedicate a small samashti Kruthi in Raagam Hamsadhvani for this Parama hamsa MahA Purushar , a Vaazhi ThirunAmam and Vandhanam . May this Sri Vaikunta Vaasi continue to bless us all for all times to come !

AdiyEn places at the sacred feet of this Azhagiya Singar my humble salutations. AdiyEn will have another posting to cover the meanings of these salutations.
