Swami Desikan was conferred the title of Sarva Tantra Swatantra (master of all arts, one with the capacity for independent thinking and originality in any field), by Ranganayaki thayar Herself, and Swami was adorned with the title Vedantachariar by the Lord of Srirangam Sri Ranganatha. Swami Desikan has contributed immensely to the Sri Vaishanva Sampradayam. Swami Desikan has done enormous kainkaryam to Sri Ranganatha and Sri Ranganayaki Thayar including His works of Sri Ranganatha Paduka Sahasram and Sri Abhithi Stavam.
Astikaas are requested to be present in large numbers for the Mahotsavam and receive the blessings of Swami Desikan, Sri Ranganayaki Thayar and Lord Ranganatha.

Indeed you are doing the greatest service to the sishyaas of Swami Desikan through the portal.
ஆசார்யாள் பெருமாள் எல்லாரையும் தினமும் மனசு அதைர்யபடரப்பல்லாம் கண்ணார மனசார சேவிக்க முடியரதுங்கறது பெரிய குடுப்பனை. அப்பிடிப்பட்ட குடுப்பனைய பக்தாளுகெல்லாம் ஏற்படுத்திக் கொடுக்கற அனுதினம் சைட்டுக்கும் அதை நிர்வாகம் பண்றவாளுக்கும் கோடி பிரனாமங்கள்
Anudhinam.org is a boon for all the Vaishnavites and others at large. It presents the Uthsavams of all Divyadesams on the digital screen. Those who deprived off visitig the Divyadesams, Abhimanasthalams and temples at hitherto unkown Villages are benifited. Further it arouses interest to view them again and again and thereby instill Bhakthimargam of our revered Acharyas.
