SrI: SrImathE NigamAntha MahAdESikAya namah: Dearest Srivaishnavas, Sri U Ve Seva Swamy has attained AChAryan Thiruvadi. I was not fortunate to see him. But I am blessed to have read many of his articles- all on Swamy Dsikan and his granthas.. His bhakti for Swamy Desikan is unmatched and used to breathe only Swamy Desikan's granthas. Smt Praveena had written 108 posts about two years ago for Swamny Desikan Thirunakshathram (one post a day), and when I asked her as to how on earth she is able to get such depths of material and that too everyday, she simply replied, "it is all due to Sri Seva Swamy's great book on Swamy Desikan.." Our list member Sri Damal Patthani KaNNan Swamin (who is at Singaproe now with his daughter) had written the following on Sri Seva Swamy: ============================= SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA: SRIMATHE NIGAMNTHA MAHA DESIKAYA NAMAHA; Deeply shocked to know about the sad news of the passing away of Sri Seva Swamy.He was one of the illustrious torch bearers of of Sri Desika Sathsampradhayam.He did yeo men service to our Sampradhayam and notably during the 700th birth anniversary year of Swamy Desikan in 1967 when he used to publish one grantha of The Great Acharyan every day and started the Sravana uthsavam at chennai.His Acharya bhakthi is matchless. He was a tireless publisher of Swamy Desikan's Divya Srisukthis .He had done lot of kainkaryams to our Sath Sampradhyam and a notable one is the publication of yearly Desika Dharsana Diary .Apart from being a Diary it is a veritable treasure house of information regarding naimithika, nithyakarmaunushatnams for the SriVaishnavites including Sandhyavandanam , Bhaghavath Thiruvaradhanam and Amavasya darsa Sradhams and the procedure for doing these. He was very practical in his day to day life and was one of the guiding spirits behind the Desika Darsanam. His loss is irrepairable and our deepfelt condolonces to his family and ardent followers like adien,may kindly be conveyed.
