May we become free of all virtues despicable, may we be affluent with infinite bliss and may we become the virtuous on the steadfast path. May those noble souls, who have imbibed the scriptural ocean by placing it in their fist, who have distanced themselves from the deplorable duals and who have a penchant for the dual lotus feet of Sri Lakshmi Hayagriva alone, be dear to me. The samarpanam of this work commemorating the 121st Avatara mahotsava of our Acharya sarvabhouma, Srimadabhinava Srinivasa Brahmatantra Swatantra Parakala Swamy, has been possible only due to the divine grace of Purvacharyas. It is only due to the anugraha vishesham of the glories of our Acharya parampara, that this samarpanam has attained its purnatvam. This work is placed at the lotus feet of our Sri Lakshmi Hayavadana, Sri Lakshmi Narayana and Sri Venugopala, who beam resplendently owing to the brilliance of the anupama-anavarata-ananya-anitarasadharana bhakti of the Acharya paramparai that has been adulating and worshipping Him for so many centuries now. The purpose of this samarpanam will be served even if one infinitesimal amount of our Acharya Sarvabhouma’s glories has been celebrated. With great pride we can say that it is indeed our greatest fortune that we all have been blessed to celebrate the 121st avatara mahotsavam of our Achaarya sarvabhouma Srimadabhinava Srinivasa Brahmatantra Swatantra Parakala Swamy. Let us pray to be recipients of his kataaksham and anugraham which is indeed the fruit of all our penances. As Swamy Deshikan says in his Subhashita Nivi, “An artist can paint the picture of the Sun, but can he give it the same radiance?” Similarly our Swamy has infinite auspicious attributes like Paraman himself. It would be impossible for any work on this earth to fully exemplify his kalyaana gunams. Let us plead at the feet of divya-dampathis for the glories of our Acharya parampara to reach everlastingness. jy jy inTysUi´llnami[maEilm[e jy jy É´s
