Sree lakshmi hayagreeva parabrahmaNe namaH Sreemate raamanujaya namaH Thooppul thiruvenkatam udayaan thiruvadigaLE saraNam Sri brahmatatra swatantra parakala mahadesikaaya namaH Dear bhaktas: It is neither common, nor expected of AchAryas to personally respond to the requests by shishyas/well-wishers - regarding matters such as delays in sponsoring sevais during their own thirunakshatram!! It is however, testimonly to the vatsalyam and humility of prakritam Swami Srimad Abhinava vageesha parakala desikan, that Jeer kindly agreed to allow 5 more days for bhaktas to confirm their sponsorship of homams and annadaanam (the original cut-off date being 15 April). In a telephone conversation with AchAryan, my father requested additional time solely in order to make it possible for bhaktas who were abroad, or had been otherwise unable to act by April 15 - to still participate in such kainkaryams. Jeer has graciously agreed to accept confirmation from sponsors until the morning of 20th. April (Friday, IST). Bhaktas in the USA therefore, have until the evening of 19th. April (Thursday) to pledge their contributions to one of different sevais described in the URL (below) [Sponsorship in Rupees is given at the bottom ] ************* IMPORTANT: ************* Regardless of contribution MODE (creditcard, cheque, or Indian Rupees), please email: jeeyar@parakalamutt.org and provide your full name, address, gothram/nakshatram information + the amount contributed and the particular sevai you wish to sponsor. This is necessary due to the shortage of time - it is the only way in which we can submit the list of participants to the Mysore matham by Friday morning IST. For payment information, see: http://www.parakalamutt.org/festivals/jeeyartn.shtml RUPEE Contributions by cheque/DD shall be made out to: Sri Brahmatantra Prakala mutt, Mysore [All contributions are exempted from the Income Tax deduction under Section 80-G of India's I.T. act] and sent to: President and Secretary, Sri. Brahmatantra Swatantra Parakala Mutt, Krishnavilasa Rd, Devaraja mohalla, Mysore-570024. Your devotion and support towards this ancient institution named after Kaliyan - thirumangai Azhwar's iSTha-devatA (Sri. parakaalan) is very much appreciated. A few devotees have already contributed towards the sponsorship of anna daanam and 3-day homams, and our list of names/gotrams will continue to be collected until this Thursday (19th. April) evening, when they will be emailed to India. If any questions please email Sri. Rajeev Karamchedu (rkaramchedu@hotmail.com) or Smt. Nagu Satyan (satyan@worldnet.att.net). adiyEn -Srinath C. -------------------------------------------------------------- - SrImate rAmAnujAya namaH - To Post a message, send it to: bhakti-list@yahoogroups.com Archives: http://ramanuja.org/sv/bhakti/archives/ Your use of Yahoo!
