Veda Patashalas needing our help!
=========================
Here is a list of Veda Patashalas which are in need of financial assistance. Please do call
the Srowthigals at the numbers mentioned to get more details. My acquaintance has
reached out to me to help spread the word. Please do your might to help out.
1) Sama Vedha patasalai
Saraboji Agraharam,
Thiruvenkadu
Adhyapakar: Sri Sundara Srowthigal,
Mobile No. +91 9489825418
This Veda Patashala was earlier located in Pazhaya Gudalur, near Kuttalam, Mayuram and
recently shifted to Thiruvenkadu. Has about 10 vidhyarthis.
Spoke to Shri Sundara Srowthigal just a few minutes back. He said he was blessed in the
sense that his Vedas test was administered by Swamigal Himself in the year 1981 when He
was camping in Gulbarga, Karnataka in His Satara Vijaya Yatra. Swamigal had given him
some reward on that occasion! Sri Sundara Srowthigal's online transfer details:

2) Sri Sankara Gurukulam Acharya Vidhya Vidhya Peetam,
79, North Street, Melattur - 614 301
Tanjore District.
Adhyapakar: Sri Thiagaraja Sharma
Mobile: +91 9003428845
About 20 vidhyarthis are studying here. Both Sama and Yajur vedams are taught here. It
seems that a donor who was taking care of the grocery needs of the Patashala to the tune
of Rs.14,000/- a month, has suddenly stopped contributing.
I spoke to Shri Thygaraja Sharma just a few minutes back. He said after he completed his
Veda Adhyayanam at the age of 15, his guru took him to Kanchi Swamigal and told Him
proudly, "Only this boy in my class has agreed to teach Vedas!"
To which Swamigal replied, " I am very proud of you! Mother Veda will take care of you,
you do not worry! You have my complete blessings!"
And he started to teach Vedas at the age of 17 to a first batch of 3 boys!
He told me that checks can be drawn in the name of ' Sri Sankara Gurukulam Acharya
Vidhya Peetam'.

3) Thogur Veda Patashala
I just spoke to Shri Makarabhushanam Mama #2 in the list. He told me that Mahaswamigal blessed him to go to his guru's place and start the Veda Patashala, without seeking out money. And that he will be in 'Parama Kshemam'! He has been doing it from 1978.

Spoke to Shri Sabapathi Dikshidar. He mentioned that they started the Patashala in June 2012 and have 9 students now. He said when he went to Mahaswamigal to get His blessings for his Upanayanam, Swamigal showered His grace by giving him a Poorrnaphalam Matta Thengai and told him, "do your Adhyayanam properly and you will be blessed!".

He maintains 11 cows - 7 of which are milk-yielding, in a traditional Goshaala. He uses the milk, dung etc. obtained from the cows tended in the Goshaala only, for all the Gurukulam's needs and doesn't procure them from outside. The cost of feeding these cows averages Rs. 12k per month."
