 RAJA THATHA , THE GIFT  TO MANKIND..   --  J K SIVAN  

It is very rare to come across  in life, giants and great men., especially  a  person  blessed and recognized by Maha Periyava  for  translating  sanskrit sthothras and slokas.  Such books  authored by PRR were published  at  most economic and  comfortable price  to reach many people with the aim of spreading knowledge and discipline in life. 

i have been lucky in that respect to know and learn about Sri PUDUCCODE  RAMA IYER  RAMACHANDER though we have not met yet.  PRR  is an embodiment of  love &  affection towards  his friends,  a tower house of  deep and sound knowledge , Master of  many languages and an epitome of  humility and simplicity.  He may be younger  than me  by a few months in age but is  ages and aeons beyond me  in knowledge of all vedhas, sasthras, and scripts in many languages.  I wish I achieve  1/10000000000th of his knowledge which will make me a  complete human.  Here  are  some  facts about this human wonder.

PRR  has no time to waste even a second and if he has any  spare time it is devoted to  Astrology, matching of horoscopes over internet, Historical studies, Writing English poems, Translating Sthothrams in to english  which made me  know him and admire him for ever.  He  is Master of  languages such as English, Tamil , Malayalam, Hindi and Sanskrit  besides  Telugu and Kannada.  He lives in Bengaluru now.
