There was a dilapilated old tiled house, which was dismantled and the imposing new complex with all facilities for Ashramam activities as well as Veda Patasalai. This is a 78th Tirunakshatra samarpanam to H H.

On this Saturday 26th May DivyaDesa Perumal Sri Vaikunta Perumal will be received in the new Ashramam Complex, during his Sancharam in Chinna Kanchipuram.

Further we have developed the other areas adjacent to this place, which houses the Perumal Sannathi, Srimath Therazhundur Andavan's Brindavanam, as well as Ashramam and Srimath Andavan Madappallis Every thing has been renovated, Sthapathi works are done, Sannathis sporting refurbished vimanams etc.

Kanchipuram Andavan Ashramam report

Sreemathe RangaRamanuja Mahadesikaya Namaha
Kanchipuram is in Srimath Andavan's thoughts always. Yes, a new Ashramam building has come up, with attached Veda patasalai, Perumal and Achryan Sannathis at Ashramam complex are renovated, entire Ashramam building in the old are is fully repaired, Additional facilities are provided in Apara and Sradha karyam areas.

All of you know already, with the blessings of H H. the Saalakkinaru area was spruced with a new compound wall, Kinaru itself was desilted and replastered, a dedicated person was nominated to bring Saalakkinaru theertham everyday on his shoulders by walk of 7 KMs to Sri Deva perumal Tiruvaaraadanam.
After all these, Swamy Desikan Adiyars made a request for a new silver bell for Swamy Desikan sannathi at Sri Deva Perumal Temple.This was also done now by an Ashramam sishya, who was particular in presenting it on behalf of H H Srimushnam Andavan . Thsi silver bell with inscription of H H Srimushnam Andavan was presented to H H first in Chennai ashramam, then was carried to Sri Deva perumal Temple on Kadai Velli day, presented to Sri Perundevi Thayar  and with Her anugraham, the bell was carried to Swamy Desikan sannathi on Chithirai- Sravanam day,12/05/2012 and presented to Swamy Desikan by Aaraadakar Srivathsan.

At that time I was told thatin Sri Deva Perumal Sannathi, ther is a silver bell presented by Srimath Therazhundur Andavan. We now have a similar silver bell with Srimushanm andavan's name inscribed in Swamy Desikan sannathi in Sri Deva Perumal Temple. This is another landmark in our Ashramam's history.
The silver bell presentation ceremony, I have taken small video clip and giving you the you tube link of that for you to enjoy
I have a few more to add about our Ashramam activity in Kanchipuram, which I will do it in the next posting. I now give the youtube links of the events happened in Kanchipuram on 11th and 12 may 2012

During Krishnaavatara He played and swam with his cowherd friends and sported in the waters of Yamuna with the beautiful Gopikas.

Let us relive the life of cowherds and Gopikas and engage in the service of Sri Krishna and his followers for a day on June 9 at Lake Jordan.

On Jun 9, we have a private beach area booked in Lake Jordan(near Raleigh area) for Sri Krishna in the form of Sri Venugopala (Sri Krishna wielding the flute) along with Sri Rukmini and Sri Sathyabhama

to sail on a float and for us to immerse ourselves in joy and service to the Lord.

Bhagavat Ramanuja will be there to witness all this fun.


There will be fun filled events to keep adults and kids immersed in Krishnanubhavam in the sands and waters of Lake Jordan.
