Translated by

(Vedantha Desika who is considered as the incarnation of the temple bell in Thirupathi  and  is one of the greatest Vaishnavite scholars  in the post Ramanuja period.He was the son born to in around 1248 AD to Ananta Suri and Thotakamba and belonged to the Viswamithra Gothram. He was taught Sastras by his own uncle KIdambi Appullalar  and became recognized as a great  expert in Vaishnavism by the time he  was 20 years of age. Some of the very great gems  of Vaishnavism were authored by him . The  author of this Mangalam  , Kumara Varada was his own son and disciple. Being a novice in Vaishnavism, I have taken the help of  a translation of this great work  by Vilambakkam Sri Govinda Rajan and Oppiliappan  koil  sri Varadachari SAtakopan, which is available on line .My purpose would be served  , if those who happen to read my translation, would read that great translation which is available in www.ibiblio.org/sadagopan/ahobilavalli/dm.pdf  )
