Dear Anand
Adiyen have been blessed with a chance for the last few weeks to learn  few
Sampradayam Kalakshebams from Sri.MathiSrinivasan swamy who was a Professor
at Univ of Madras,( during his visit to US) and also Adiyen came to know
that (also seen) Swamy has written a 3-4 vol of Books written in Tamil along
with vYakyAnam for Divya Prabhandhams, Swamy has wriiten the book based on
Sri.PerivAchan Pillai's commentaries but it will be simple tamil not in
ManiPravalam, its available at
Sri vRahi Printers
150 Alwarpettai St
Alwar Pettai - Ch -18
Ph 433 5524

Pl tell them that you have been informed by Author (SriMathiSrinivasan) to
buy the books to get some discount on the Price.
Hope this helps

Adiyen Ramanuja Dasan

Namaskarams.

I would like to know of publications on 4000 Divya prapandam with
explanation/commentary according to Sri Vaishnava sampradayam.
I already have a nice book from Lifco containing only the pasurams but no
commentary.
I came across 2 ads from Tamil magazines this week, here are the details :

1) Title : 4000 Divya Prapandam with explanation
 Author : Dr. R. V. Kamalakannan PhD
  9 volumes - 4736 pages, Rs. 675 by VPP
Publisher: Vardhamanan Publications,
	15, Sarojini Street, T. Nagar,
	Chennai - 600017, ph 435 0561

2)Title : Sri Vaishnavism and Alwars
       ( sri mukam by Sri Sriperumbudur Jeer Swamy)
Author: Nallan Chakravarthi R. Devarajan
Rs. 350
Publisher : Sri Senbaga Publications,
	Old # 24, Krishna Street,
	T. Nagar, Chennai 600017
	ph 433 1510

Not sure whether the above will be authentic. I am interested in the
sampradaya meanings,Sri Alwars' bhakthi than the Tamil literal/grammar
beauties.
Can anyone suggest of any other good commentary works(if any by Sri Mukkur
Swamy, Sri Krishna Premi, Dr. MAV swamy...etc)?

adiyen,
Anand.
