"This book is a compilation of English translations of a select series of 16 epistles written in Tamil by "Srimadh Azhagiyasingar", a renowned religious Acharya, His Holiness, Sri Ranganatha Yatheendra (1895-1992 CE), the 44th Pontiff of Sri Ahobila Matham and also popularly known as "Mukkur Swamy". The epistles cover a broad array of topics of spiritualism, philosophy and social ethics of Sri Vaishnavism, one of the oldest and most authentic Vedantic traditions of India propounded by Sri Ramanujacharya (1017-1137 CE) and further developed by his tutelage of preceptors who came in a long lineage after him from 13th century CE right up to the present day. Every epistle in this book is a lucid, elegant discourse on matters of lofty Sri Vaishnava religious thought and doctrine as delivered so powerfully by "Mukkur Swamy" to his vast audiences that consisted of both the erudite and the layman. This book is sure to whet and enlighten the curiosity of any reader who is interested in Hindu philosophy, religion and ethics."
This book is an expansive outline of history which, at the same time, is also a very comprehensive history of the Sri Vaishnava community of Tamil Nadu, India. It spans a period of 1000 years — from the 11th century CE to the present day. It is The historical narrative is woven around a “tale of two cities” i.e. Sri Rangam and Kanchipuram, the two towns in South India from where a titanic struggle for ownership, power, legitimacy and control over not only temples but also for the very self-identity of the Sri Vaishnava identity was waged for over seven centuries by two major sects, the Tenkalais and Vadakalais. The struggle continues to this day, having been dragged deeply into and getting increasingly embroiled in the larger issues and dynamics of the Tamil State socio-politics viz. language, ethnology, demography and culture. The “tale of two cities” is a historical narrative about grievous loss of religious legacy, debility of cultural identity and decline of economic prosperity arising from social alienation… This book is an absorbing tale of human frailties.... of ambition, greed, deceit, envy, malice and betrayal.
