Sri Jaganath has pointed this out and I wholeheartedly concur. This theme of support for our Achaaryaas is preferrable compared to individual action was earlier expressed by Sri. Sumanth Kaushik. I am in complete agreement with this. There is no better way to do this than support the fund raising drive that is in full swing in India for the 71st thirunakshathram of the Sri Lakshminrusimha Dhivya Paadhukaa sEvaka srivaN satakOpa sri naaraayaNa yatheendhra maHAdhEsikan. The current issue of Sri Nrusimhapriyaa highlights the contribution of Rs. 1 lakh by Sri Sellappa of Nungambaakkam and a house he jointly owns with his brother. The magazine also notes that such a contribution by a middle-class individual is actually worth several crores. Let us draw inspiration from such great souls and participate in this unique opportunity to serve our achaaryaa. Like Thirumangai AzhvAr says, "kulam tharum selvam thandhitum," it is our Lord Sriman Narayana who has given us the dollars and provides us the opportunity to serve our Acharya. Let us make use of this opportunity. If you are persuaded, make your tax-deductible check to to Sri Ahobila Mutt, and mail it to Sri. Jaganath Bharadwaj, 5539 Columbia, Arlington, VA 22204. BTW, the magazine also reports the award of 4 Gold Medals and a cash award for Sri. K. Muralidaran, by University of Madras. Sri. Muralidaran is a 93-94 Siromani graduate from the Sri Mutt's Sanskrit College at Madhurandhagam. Our Acharya, Srimad Azhagiya Singar, has announced that He is taking up direct management control of this college. Srimadhazhagiya Singar has also expressed His committment for expanding the campus to include an Arts College and a Polytechnique Institute. Needless to say that all these require a tremendous amount of financial resources. srimadhazhagiya singar thiruvadigaLE saraNam dhaasan Parthasarati Dileepan
