Sri Nandha Pathangi swami of TiruEvvuL is trying to bring together a 1000 SriVaishnavas to undergo Vedanta Deepam kalakshepam to celebrate SriBashyakarar’s 1000th Thirunakshatram. His idea is to bring people, who are otherwise in loukeeka life, into formal education on SriRamanuja Darsanam, so that we can be appreciative of the Philosophical foundation of our glorious Sampradayam.
The details of the programme are given below. The classes are primarily online for a period of 2 years, with textual material circulated, and a couple of books distrubuted to the enrolled.
Pathangi Swami has requested SriAhobilaMutt’s Asthana Vidwan Sri U.Ve. Mannargudi Rajagopalachar Swami to conduct the oral sessions and supervise this programme.
The programme commenced on Vijayadasami day (06 October 2011) with AzhwAn’s SriVaradarajaStavam, and classes on Deepam are expected to begin in Nov/Dec 2011.
The current gathering of people are associated with a group in Facebook

The fees include the study material and Acharya Sambavanai. Enrollment of atleast a 100 people is needed for this programme to go through the length. The first installment that is required, is expected to cover printing charges for Uttamur Swami’s Tamil Vyakyanam to Vedanta Deepam.
