Collecting all alwar and acharya thaniyans.
From the Bhakti List Archives
• March 22, 1997
Dear Sri Rangarajan Sudarsan : Regarding your posting on collection of all the Taniyans and their meanings in one place , it is a very good idea. It is however a huge task given there are more than one taniyan by our AcharyAs and poets like Kamban .Further , The Taniyans might probably fit together as an inseparable unit with the Subject matter of their salutation (Viz )., AzhwAr's AruLiccheyalgaL and sthothrams . I will illustrate the size of the effort that one has to be prepared to undertake as one gets into this project . This is not to say that such an effort is not to be attempted , but it will take a long time to complete by any one person . Even then , we may wish to appreciate the Taniyans in their context of the AruLiccheyalgaL and sthothrams , which will add more to the time it takes to complete this laudable task.I guess we ahve to go slowly. Finally , There have been one or more postings on selcted Taniyans that are archived in Sri MaNI's wonderful data Base . The classification there by date , author and threads is extremely impressive .

I would deeply apprciate if somebody in the group could write about all the thaniyans with their meanings. If it has been already posted to the group or available in the archives online , i would appreciate if somebody could let me know. Iam also intersted in establishing contacts with bhagavathas in this group who are living in Phoneix/(ASU) Tempe area in Arizona.
