dear bhaktas

sri ramajayam,

"tasmimstajjanY bhYdAbhAvAt"

 

i have gone through some of our past bhakti-list archives of sriman

k.srinivasan, sadagopan and sriman krishna tatachari with regard to SaTamarShaNa

gotra lineage, right from sri nathamuni onwards, and ankiras,purugutsaar and

trasadasyu, the three Rushi pravara of the gotra. it was mentioned in the

arichives that SaTamarShaNar was the son of ankiras. on the otherhand according

to late c. rajagopalachar's book on mahabharata, the sage angiras was the father

of brihaspati, the guiding spirit of devatas and preeminent in the knowledge of

the vedas and grand father of kacha. so whether the sage ankiras was the same

angiras(spelling mistake?) of mahabharata and ShaTamarshanar born is a question

that needs to be addressed.

 

Sriman kotikanyadhan sri krishna tatachariar kindly gave us a true version

about SaTamarShaNar and extracted out the summary of his family line. Where can

I get a Copy of his father's book on "shatamarshana anjana sidda mahime" and the

monograph of "shatamarshana gotra prabhavam" of sriman p.a. ranganatha tatachari

to go into further details.

 

i have a manuscript of the srimat tirumala family tree(tengalai converted

family lines migrated to andhra) rewritten on a paper in the year 1946 from

talapatra grandha of one of his ancestors and from sri desikar's book on

'Rahasya trayaNam..' etc. it was stated in the manuscript that sri SaTamarSaNar

was originally rajarshi(kSHetriya) who later become brahmarshi on rigorious

tapasya(penance). the ancestors of SaTamarSaNar were all vaishanava bhaktars.

 

till sri nathamunulu time they were following Rushi ashrama sampradayam and

from then onwards they followed and preached visTadwaitam. The manuscript

further states that the SaTamarShaNa gotra familes in other castes might be

possible but remote. the information given in 'narasimha puranam' written by a

famous niyogi kavi by name paidipatu venketa narasimha kavi was that he was

residing in garikipadu village in nellore dt., and his gotram was

SaTamarshanmam.

 

the Second instance was, there used to be mahabhasyam bhattarkar, the teacher

and guru for the sons of sri AlWandar. one of his offspring migrated during

cheduva and early nizam times to andhra with initial as 'kanchi bhattar'. They

were srivaishnavites with SaTamarSaNa gotram. I have heard that

the nathella families of niyOgi brahmins are saTamarSaNars. at present there

are instances to show that some vaishnava bhakatas in other castes too have

their gotra as SaTamarShaNa by means of samasriyanam and updesam by the acharya

purushals of this gotra.

 

now coming to the earlier lineage of tatachari families, we know that the nepew

conjeevaram tatachari (also known as panchamata bhanjanam tatachari) of

ShsTaparAnkusa swamy of ahobila peetam, was invited by him. but we donot know

about their tanians clearly except that of srikrishna tatachari's lineage.

details are yet to be known with regard to the various family lines and links of

siriya tirumala nambi for those settled in addanki and tirupati and of

kurusheshulu tatachari tanians and their family lines other than kotikanyadan

tatachari, like bukkaptnam tirumala, tirumala kumara?, bellari(raghavachari),

tanjavoor, gadval, and other family lines belonging to swayamacharyas (tholappa

acharis). we are yet to know the lineage of gandikota tirumala vaishanavites

like kuntimadhi, peddinti etc of SaTamarSaNa tirumala families. i would

appreciate if any one can explain this famous SaTamarSaNa family heritage and

their tanians of earlier period.

Shree Jairam,

 

Thanks for providing interesting information about ShaTamaharshhaNa gotra.

 

I know you mentioned our family in the list. Actually Puttaparthi

Trimala, Nagasamudram Tirumala, Bukkapatnam Tirumala, Kuntimadhi

Tirumala, ballari Tirumala- Most of them are cousins and as I know

are from VaDahalai sampradaayam. 'Saraswati Putra', Puttaparti

Narayana Char, the famous Telugu poet is from this puTTaparthi

Tirumala family. Ballari Raghavachar hails from the same linage.

Most of them dropped the tirumala once they settled in different

parts of Anantapur District. Lineage to Tirumala Nambi is one

connection. It is also mentioned that Tirumala toTachaarya, the guru

of ShreeKrishnadevaraya is from the same lineage. Most of them

belong to parakaala Mutt.

 

My father had collected information upto my 9th great great great

grand father. In fact, he inserted this family tree in his poetry at

the end of the text 'Indiraa vanadanam' - sloka-s on Mahalakshmi.

In fact he passed on to us to publish yet unpublished work of this

great grand father on 'Shree stuti'. It is a great classic literary

work of 130 slokas in talapatra-s that my father discovered in an

attic of Nagasamudram Tirumalai family. The sloka-s are full with

alakarara-s . My father had revised it filling in several missing

words and lines due to damage of the talapatra-s by insects and

writing a brief commentary on it. We are yet to publish that. This

Great grand father was settled in Tirumalai and called himself -

vr^ishagiri Narasimhachar - vR^ishagiri standing for Tirumala hills.

 

It is a news to me that there are tengalai families in the

ShaTamaharshhaNa gootra.

 

Hari Om!

Sadananda

Dear Brothers,

 

I am also from Shatamarshana Lineage and my Grand father used the title Kotikanyadhan Thathachar. My father did not use this title. Since I am keen to develop my knowledge on my lineage, I am eager to read all the materials available on this subject. I shall be much obliged if any of you can send me the books, such as: "shatamarshana anjana sidda mahime" and the

monograph of "shatamarshana gotra prabhavam" of sriman p.a. ranganatha tatachari and such other books available on this subject.

 

I look forward to the response from all.

I am ramanujabhattar with surname as korkondabhattar. i belong to bhattar's of satamarshana gothram and i have the taniyans written down by my grandfather late Sriman Alaha Singaracharyulu of GOSAVEEDU in Khammam Dist. A.P These were written by him in Telugu and copied down many times. I have the paper written by him where the writing abruptly stopped . However these taniyans reveal quite a many facts. I request fellow bhattar's as well as people interested in Satamarshana gothra lineage, to read these carefully. Significance can be noted in Bhattar's at S.No.1 Mahabashya Bhattar, No.3- Siruppulli Devaraja Bhattar and at S,NO 12 and 13 where gradsons from KURESA LINEAGE have been adopted and these two taniyans reveal that these are people who were in KORKONDA (20 kms from Rajamundry) at that time and probably the people who were responsible for the construction of the Lord Narasimha swamy temple.
