Dear Bhagavathas,

We are delighted to publish the very first stotram book at this website in 28 languages. This is none other than the most sacred and divine Shri ANdAL ThiruppAvai (“vEdam anaithukkum viththAgum”) with chitra kolams by Smt. Madhumathi Kasturi. We are truly blessed to release it at the beginning of the auspicious Margazhi month this year. The book is titled “Chitra Thiruppavai Kolam” and the link to the 28 pdf books is given below.

Chitra Thiruppavai Kolam (28 pdf docs)

Please note you that you can also access the book from the “stOtram” page accessible from the menu bar at the top of any page.

In the Margazhi month of 2016-2017, Madhu drew a kolam each and and every day for the “pAsuram of the day”. Each evening would start off with prayers and then while listening to Thiruppavai discourses by U. Ve. Shri Velukkudi Krishnan Swamy and U. Ve. Shri Dushyanth Sridhar Swamy, she would draw the kolam inspired by a word in the pAsuram. The kolams became increasingly complex as the month progressed and the kainkaryam would stretch through many hours into the night. Shown below is a sequence of photos while Madhu was working on the kolam for pAsuram 28 (karavaigaL pinsendru …). Madhu is profusely thankful and remembers her late mother Smt. Karpagam Rangachari for her training and inspiration.

We are blessed to have collected the photos of all the kolams and make them part of this book release after 2 long years! We thank Smt. Latha Narasimhan and Sri. Narasimhan Iyengar for posting the kolam photos near Shri ANdAL Sannidhi at the Austin Hindu Temple during the Margazhi month last year.

Please enjoy the ‘e-gift’ from Madhu. Wish you all a Very Happy and Spiritually-filled Margazhi month.
