A Beautiful Kumbakonam Oppiliappan Calendar 2009

A Beautiful Kumbakonam Oppiliappan Calendar 2009

I came to learn about a beautiful calendar on Kumbakonam Oppiliappan temple for the year 2009 from Srirangasri Yahoogroups posting over here. Since it had two parts of the calendar, I just thought I would try merging the PDFs into a single one. With the help of MergePDF, I chose to combine them into a single PDF. In this process, I found a few quirks in MergePDF where the upload was getting aborted because the server was unable to take continuous two five mega bytes file though there was a mention about the size being permitted. When I wrote to the webmaster, they corrected the anomalies and wrote me back too.

I sent the calendar as a single file to Sadagopan Mama who posted the message in SrirangaSri and he immediately announced the single file version to everyone. When I suggested him about sharing it in Scribd, he was glad too. With his blessings, I have shared the same in Scribd and you can get the calendar from Scribd here.

A Sloka to get the blessings of Sri Mahalakshmi Thayar to get good marks in examinations

A Sloka to get the blessings of Sri Mahalakshmi Thayar to get good marks in examinations

I got the following sloka from some one in Satyanarayana Perumal Yahoogroups. It is advised for the students to recite this sloka every friday before 0630 hours during the Viswaroopa Seva of Sri Sathyanarayana Perumal, West Mambalam in His Mahalakshmi Sannidhi. The sloka needs to be recited twelve times, a quick archana to be performed and then the devotee should come around (circumambulate) the shrine.
