Dear BhakthAs around the World:

It is a joyous day . The glorious celebrations of
the 75th Birth day of a a great MahAthmaa and avathAra 
Purushan is being celebrated at Selayur , Tamil Nadu .
This great soul , whom adiyEn is priveleged to revere as
asmath AchAryan is also celebrating His first decade as 
the Head of the Sri Matam , whose AarAdhana Moorthy is 
Sri Lakshmi Narasimhan .

It is adiyEn's prayer to Sri Lakshmi Narasimhan to
bless this MahAchAryan arOgha dhrita gaathra Sareeram 
and Veda PrAyam to bless us and guide us .

AdiyEn's Achaaryans' name chosen as He entered 
SanyAsAsramam is Sriman NaarAyaNa YathIndhra 
MahA Desiknan. Among the 45 Azhagiya Singars 
of Sri matam , this Azhagiya Singar is the 8th one
to choose the NaarAyaNa Naamam for His reign .
He is thus the embodiment of AshtAkshari .

this sacred AchAryan residing in my heart lotus
