-Dear Kripa, Thanks. I shall post a synopsis on RR within a week.
Dear Pavithra, Welcome back. Last time you desired to know the contributions of Cholas to Vaishnavism. Gokul and others also voiced. This (Sunday) morning, I had a detailed discussion with Sri VaishnavaSri Krishnamachariyar of Srirangam at Srirangam. He is author of Panjasanyam Monthly. He is an authority in Srirangam temple inscriptions. Guided Shankar Dayal Sharma when he was the President of India at the request of Rashtrapathi Bhawan. Ardent reader of Kalki. Specialised in Ponniyinselvan. Like certain people who can tell 133th to 1st Chapter of Thirukkural, he can criss-cross and narrate each and every incident / character in PS. We all are going to find him to be very informative and useful.
Rajamahendra Thiruchutru of Srirangam is named after Rajendra's son. Like Thiruvanaikka, there was water found underneath Rangaraja Karbagraham. It is Rajendra's son who relaid the stones and arrested the seepage of water.
He is specialising on Cholas' contribution to Vaishnavism.
Pandya's contribution to Hinduism. He says one Mr. Gopalji, French Institute, Pondichery, is very much learned,revered and is authoritative in History and Kalki Liternature.

Oh wow. Thanks so much. This is really great - getting first-hand information from people who're an authority on the subject. We're really indebted to you, sir. Do please continue...
Personally, I envy the numerous trips you take through the length and breadth of TN. Wish we could, too.:-).
