Every year, most of you celebrate birthdays. Even if you choose not to celebrate, your near and dear choose your birthday to show their love and gratitude for having you in their lives. So, one day for one year is considered good enough to convey that kind of wishes for your loved one, isn’t it? Now, how about for someone who gave us the best gifts anyone can give, the real wisdom about Life and the eternal truths of the Supreme!
Ramanujacharya is that one great acharya who was born 1000 years ago. So, we should celebrate his millennium birthday for at least 3 years [considering the 1 day for year that we do for ourselves], right? The celebrations started in 2017, we are entering the third year of celebration!
Let’s take deeper dive at the wisdom he shared and continue to make everyone we know a part of the celebration.
– From Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji
– Continued Millennium Birth Year Celebrations of Ramanujacharya!
Here’s a quick update on the progress of Statue of Equality Project for our dear readers, please share and spread the news! We cannot let anyone miss out on this project. Why? Because it is a project that reflects the work of great soul who had an extremely tender heart supported by a strong intellectual foundation as recommended by Vedas. He passed onto us the time-tested way of life coming from rushis, acharyas, and alwars from aeons. What else can make this world better, free from chaos or unclear direction to life? Let’s all be inspired by such personality!
