Dear Members, With the enormous kindness and grace of Sri Maha Periva, we have been publishing free ebooks each month focused on spreading the message of Hindu Tradition & Culture, embellished with Periva's thoughts on each subject that we publish about. We are continuing with the special series we commenced from July 2013 - an ebook series which would get published on every Anusham. As we are closer to the Anusham day of December 2013 (Monday 02 Dec 2013), we would like to dedicate this Volume 6 at the divine feet of Sri Maha Periva, and distribute this to you all as His prasaadam. This series is a special collectors' edition and a treasure for the future generations, as we are going to bring in lot of information about Sri Maha Periva and the wonderful things He has done throughout the time the God lived amidst us. The ebook also contains few rare images of Periva, and has been compiled with painstaking efforts by our respected moderator Sri subi24 supported by our respected moderator Smt Sumi on the Quiz part. We also invite you to regularly visit our parent website www.periva.org which has a rich treasure of information, articles and a large collection of direct audio files of Periva's Upanyasams. Link to download the ebook: drive.google.com/file/d/0BwuDCferB6sJZkVmdjJlc0VVV3c/edit?usp=sharingThose who missed the earlier volumes can download them from the below links: Volume 1: periva.proboards.com/thread/4764/special-series-glimpses-perivas-historyVolume 2: periva.proboards.com/thread/4919/special-series-glimpses-perivas-historyVolume 3: periva.proboards.com/thread/5124/special-series-glimpses-perivas-historyVolume 4: periva.proboards.com/thread/5425/special-series-glimpses-perivas-historyVolume 5: periva.proboards.com/thread/5680/special-series-glimpses-perivas-historyNote that once the file opens up in Google, you can save it to your local drive (Ctrl+S works in most browsers) and view it at leisure.

Hari OM ! A brief history of RAJA VEDA KAVYA PATASALA--KUMBAKONAM. Raja Veda Patasala was founded in the year 1542 A.D. by Illustrious Statesman and Chief Minister for 3 Nayak kings of Thanjavur - Advaitha Vidyacharya Maharaja Saheb Sri Govinda Deekshithar. It was a well known center of higher learning of Vedas and allied subjects, but owing to the vagaries of time it slowly declined in eminence. In the year 1972, HIS Holiness and the then Kanchi Sage Jagadguru Sri. Chandrasekarendra Saraswathi Swamigal formed a Society to manage and nurture this ancient institution. This society was named as Advaitha Vidyacharya Maharaja Saheb Sri Govinda Deekshithar Punya Smarana Samithi and registered under the Societies Act as Serial No.38 in the year 1972. The work was entrusted to Brahmasri Dr. V.R. Lakshmikantha Sarma an eminent scholar, Trivedi, Nithyagnihothri and Ayurveda Siromani and also an eminent practicing Ayurvedic physician of repute. Under his guidance and able administration the Patasala regained its pristine glory. Now we find the number of aspirants for Vedic studies are increasing, we get around 40 to 45 new applications every year. In order to cater to their needs and for the enrichment of Vedic studies a new building just across the 462 year old building with 13,000 Sq.ft. area is built and inaugurated by Their Holinesses Jagadguru Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal and Sri Sankara Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal of Kanchi Kamakoti Mutt on 21.06.2004. Under the advise of the present Kanchi Kamakoti Peedathipathi H.H.Sri.Sankara Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal, we will be teaching Sanskrit to all aspirants without distinction of Religion, Caste, Sex, or creed on a regular basis. On the social side youngsters who are drop outs in the elementary education and are above the permitted age of admission in regular Veda Patasala will be accommodated separately in villages and will be taught Vedas and prayogas with special attention to social skills like drawing, painting, gardening, cooking, etc as per their natural talents. This in brief is the history and activities of Advaitha Vidyacharya Maharaja Saheb Sri Govinda Deekshithar Punya Smarana Samithi. Aasthikas are requested to bestow their benevolence to this ancient Vedic institution. Dr. (late) V.R. Lakshmikantha Sarma was President and Treasurer of this Society till his demise in the year 1996. Under the guidance of Maha Periyaval Sri. Chandrasekarendra Saraswathi Swamigal (1907 - 1994), Dr. V.R.L. Sarma registered the Raja Veda Patasala under the name Raja Veda Kavya Patasala under the Societies Act in the year 1969. Each Society has 7 independent members and one Member as President & Treasurer for both. Raja Veda Kavya Patasala Society looks after the admission of students, forming of syllabus for the course studies, appointment of Adhyapakas for Vedic courses, appointment of part time teachers for elementary education of the Vedic students, etc. The Advaitha Vidyacharya Maharaja Saheb Sri Govinda Deekshithar Punya Smarana Samithi looks after the expenses for the maintenance of Patasala building, food, clothing, medical expenses, traveling expenses of the students, examination expenses, seed money for the course completed students by way of accumulated stipend, awards, etc. The first donor to the Advaitha Vidyacharya Maharaja Saheb Sri Govinda Deekshithar Punya Smarana Samithi were Sri. T. Sadavsivam and Mrs. M.S. Subbalaskhmi couple. They donated one third of their Magsaysay Award to this institution. Students who complete Pada - Krama patas are encouraged to go for higher studies by giving them Rs.4000/= as stipend on completion of the course like Ghana, etc. Source:- WWW.rajavedapatasala.orgSRI KANCHI MAHA PERIVA THIRUVADIGAL CHARANAM. |
