Sriman Koil Kandadai Vadhoola Desika Annavillappan Kumara Ramanujacharya Swami Sri U. Ve. …………………………………………………………… Swami Mangalasasanam

Swami Ramanuja made the most significant contribution to the development and propagation of the Visishtadvaita Philosophy and Srivaishnavism Religion. Being a Philosopher and Scientific thinker, Swami Ramanuja systematized the system of thought of Srivaishnavism religion and the Azhwars pasurams and to propagate it among the masses. He had established the Seventy Four (74) Simhasanadhipathis all over and Swami himself had toured extensively throughout the country and had visited all the Srivaishnava Divya Desams where the presiding deities are copiously praised by the mystic saints, the Azhwars. The foremost among the Seventy Four Simhasanadhipathis instituted by Swami Ramanuja is the Vadhoolakula Tilaka Sri Mudaliandan Swami, the priya Bagineyar (sister’s son) of Swami Ramanuja. It is learnt from our Thirumaligai Thirumudivarga Vaibhava Prakasikai, that Swami Mudaliandan is born to his parents Sri Ananthanarayana Diskshithar and Nachiyarammal as “Daasarathi” on the Chaithra Punarvasu Nakshatra day as the Amsa of Lord Sri Himself. Swami Ramanuja had a very intimate attachment for Swami Mudaliandan which was expressed by Swami Ramanuja himself many times and even at the time when he embraced Sanyasasrama, Swami Ramanuja renounced everything except Swami Mudaliandan. Swami Mudaliandan is known to be the Tridhandam and Paduka of Swami Ramanuja. Sri Koorathazhvan, known to be the Pavithram of Swami Ramanuja, has also expressed the greatness of Swami Mudaliandan by saying as,

“Padakku Atma Sambandham Irundhalum, Uzhakku Deha Sambandham Illaye”, Meaning: “Though I have the Atma Sambandham with Swami Ramanuja, I am not bodily related to him as Swami Mudaliandan is related to Swami Ramanuja”. Such is the greatness of Sri Mudaliandan Swami.

Appachiaranna is the direct descendant of Sri Mudaliandan Swami and occupies the ninth (9) positions in the order. Swami Appachiaranna was addressed by Swami Manavala Mamunigal as “Nam Appachiarannao” and Mamunigal also gave him Sri Ramanujan Thirukkaipathram to make two similar vigrahas of Mamunigal, one for the worship of Sri Appachiaranna Swamy himself and the other for Sri Vanamamalai Jeer Swami, the acharya of Appachiaranna. Sri Manavala Mamunigal also gave Appachiaranna the idol of “Sri Theemanam Keduthar”, the Perumal worshipped by Sri Atkondavilli Jeer. As directed by Swami Manaval Mamunigal, Appachiaranna lived at Kancheepuram in the Thirumaligai of Kandhadai Thozhapper performing Nithya Thiruvaradhanam to “Sri Azhaithu Vazhvithavar” one among the shad bheras of Kanchi Perarulalan. In the footsteps of Swami Ramanuja, Appachiaranna also spent his life time doing the Salaikinaru Kanikaryam for the thirumanjanam of Perarulalan and Perundevi Thayar. Such is the Mahatvam of Sri Appachiaranna Swami, the ninth descendant in the Vadhoola race.

Swami Annavillappan, son of Appachiaranna Swami lived in Singaperumal koil in the service of Sri Pataladhri Perumal as ordained by Lord Narasimha. The Lord of Singaperumal Koil Pataladhri Narasimha, appeared in the dream of Swami Annavillappan and ordered him to set right his abode which was covered under sand dunes and establish a place with agraharam and kainkaryaparas and to live ever in his service. Accordingly, Swami Annavillappan followed the divine order and lived his full life time in the service of the Lord of Singaperumal Koil.

Such great acharya Sri Annavillappan Swami Thiru Maasikettai Thirunakshatra Mahotsavam (Star Birthday Celebration) will be celebrated at Sri Mudaliandan Swami Thirumaligai (Singaperumal Koil) between 22nd of February (Monday) and 2nd of March 2016 (Wednesday).
