Sri:
Srimathe Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namah:

Dear Srivaishnavas,

Sri. C. Seshadri Swamin of Chennai, as per the command of H.H Srimad
PaRavaakkOttai Andavan of Srimad Poundarikapuram Andavan AshramamAshramam, has
been quite successfully organising a Swamy Desikan sthOthra paada thittam for
children, called "OronRu thaanE amaiyAdhO?"- from the most popular verse
composed by Sri Pillai Lokacharyar on Swamy Desikan:

seeronRu thooppul ThiruvEmkatamudaiyaan/
paar onRach chonna pazhamozhiyuL/
OronRu thaanE amaiyAdhO dhAraNiyil vaazhvaarkku/
vAnERap pOmaLavum vaazhuvu.

Even a single sloka/prabhandham of Thoopul ThiruvEmakatamudiayaan's (Swamy
Desikan's) is adequate for getting salvation and blessed with the eternal world.

1. All children from the age of 5 upto 25 are eligible to participate in this. A
mere recitation of one sloka or prabhandham of Swamy Desikan is enough for
getting a certificate from Srimad Poundarikapuram Andavan Ashramam
(asmadhAchAryan).

2. If a child can recite five complete sthOtharm (without referring to book), he
/she will be given a "gaNTA maNi".

3. Recitaters of all 28 sthOthras of Swamy Desikan will be blessed with a
"saaLagraamam".

adiyEn's request: Please organise such recitation competition during NAMA events
at your centers. Please furnish the list of names, age, sloka no. and /or how
many slokas. Please contact Sri Vijaykumar (e-mail: vkumar@ncs.com.sg); he will
contact Sri C. Sehsadri Swamin and send certificates.

Same child can recite other slokas in next events and get more certs. There is
NO END. This will keep our children be aware of our traditions and slokas. will
keep us alfo be aware of.

Regards
Narayana Narayana
