This is in response to a couple of mails - I was out of town and could not

reply earlier.

 

One was on the info Arun wanted - I guess he has gone to India already, but for

those interested: No Math has to the best of my knowledge its hqrs in Madras.

There is a Ahobila Math running on a skimpy budget in Car Street in Triplicane.

The celebrtae grandly Sri Vedantha Desikan function coinciding with his

Janma nakshathram for 10 days. There are a couple of other days celebrated,

but I don't remember which ones - definitely Nrisimha Jayanthi. The daily

pooja goes on, but otherwise except on some special days, you don't even

see Vedaparayana Goshti there. At any given day though a few of them gather at

its footsteps. Must have seen grander days - have special vahanams gathering

dust.

dust. Mainly run by the efforts of one persons family - he must be atleast

75 now. My grandparents house shares its front wall with the back wall of this

math and we used to come into it or commute through it to Car Street! The

saththumurai and rendering is done very loudly and great unison during the

10 day festival. Gets special attention when Jeer or Andavan visit Trip.

 

Has no book stall.

 

There is a Yathugiri Yethirajar Mandap across the temple by the side of the

Hanuman Temple. has more funds and a lot more active. I believe it has a

book stall, not completely regulated though. Used v often as a Kalayan Mandap.

 

 

Here's is Sri Nrisimhashtakam. When I saw the mail, I realized I had not

recited in a very long time. Since I only recite them silently, I had to

try several times before I could write down the words. I cannot guarantee

that it is without errors- but this is what I know:

(I counted 9 stanzas apart from palasruthi - so I don't know whether this

is indeed called nNrisimhashtakam - but that's my best recollection)

 

If someone has time please post the meaning.

 

Om Sri Lakshmi nNrisimha parasmai brahmaNE nNama:
