Read Coverting Letter – Rama’s squirrel calling ….. February 2024
Dear Friends,
Recently, we came across a very educative audio visual with a title – “Nature, earth and life on earth are based on principles of alliances, partnership and collaborations”. We at Rameswaram are trying to have such alliances and partnership with the local community as well as with the flora and fauna of Rameswaram Island which in turn will help in creating “Green Resilient Rameswaram”.
This month’s newsletter has the following highlights:
- Dr.Sanjay Banerji in his blog writes the final article on “Financial Accounting”
- Shri.Rangarajan, translates a few shlokas from the rare book on Ramanathaswami Temple

A Rare book – Dhevaiula on Ramanathaswami
This classical work on Sri Ramanatha Swami of Rameswaram was composed by “Palapattadai Chokkanatha Pillai”. This work was discovered by Sri U.Ve. Saminatha Iyer after comparing multiple versions. He also wrote a commentary on this rare text.
With the blessings of Lord Ramanatha Swami, Mother Parvathavardhini & Lord Rama, here is an attempt to provide a reasonable translation of this work, in English. Any error can be ascribed to me.
Social Capital
Teertha Pooja
Our work of involving community in doing Teertha poojas is going on smoothly. SHG members, E-auto drivers and Yoga participants are trying to take the ownership of the programme. In this month, we could carry out Teertha poojas at 23 Traditional water bodies with 214 volunteers participating in the activity.
