Dear AastikAs :

Akshaya Triteeyai is the third day of Sukla Paksham . It falls on May 16 ( 2nd Day of VaikAsi )this year . It is a day sacred for worship of Mahaa VishNu . PuNya karmAs done on this sacred day multiply many fold . It is an ideal day for receiving upadEsams on Mahaa mantrams by sincere saadhakAs . It is a perfect day for making new beginnings to ensure undiminishing returns . SambhAvanai to one's AchAryan , who opened one's spiritual eye is highly recommended on this sacred day . It is an ideal day for performing PuNya KarmAs like Mantra Japam , dhaanam , VishNu Sahasra Naama PaarAyaNam and the darsanam of Sriman NarayaNan on Garuda Vaahanam . The 12 Garuda Sevai at KumbakONam Big Street takes place on this day . Lord SarangapANi , ChakrapANi , Raaman , Varaahan and other sacred archAs from the city and suburbs of KumbakONam can be seen on Garuda Vaahanam under a big pandal at Periya Theru of Thirukkudanthai ( KumbakONam).
 
Akshaya means that which never diminishes .  The Sula Paksha Triteeyai is considered to be the auspicious day , when Lord Krishna blessed the Paandavas with the Akshaya Paatram that was the source of undiminishing food . It is also considered as the day in which Veda VyAsar dictated MahA Bhaaratam to Lord Vigneswara . In Kerala and elsewhere , this day is recognized as the avatAra dinam of the sixth avatAram of ParaSu Raamar ( Parasu Raama Jayanti). In northern India , KubhEra Poojai is done for increase in their wealth . On this day , mercantile interests push the sale of precious metals and Jewelery . Gold's golden run takes place in India on this day and many rush "religiously " to purchase gold instead of  turning inward to Bhagavad AarAdhanam , Mantra Japam and DhAnams . VidhyA dhAnam through support of Veda PaatasaalAs  Akshaya Trutheeyai is one of the best thing to do on this day . It is one of the most sacred Muhurtams of the Year . The other two days are YugAdhi and Vijaya Dasami .   
 
On this Akshaya Triteeyai day , adiyEn recommends the following priority activities :
 
1) Support of Your AchAryans during the upcoming ChAthur Maasya Vratam ( July 25- Sep 22, 2010). There  is nothing more important than supporting one's AchAryan and His Kaimakryams through this mode of annual support . Your samarpaNams can be whatever you can afford .
 
2) VishNu Sahasra Naama PaarAyanam and recital of Sri Raghuveera Gadhyam and Garuda DaNDakam .
 
3) Bhagavad AarAdhanam ( Laghu or dheergam)
 
4) Receiving Mantra UpadEsam from a SadaachAryan or a qualified upaasakar 
 
5) Supporting Veda PaatasAlAs , Colleges of Arts and Sciences established by the AchAryans .
 
6) Visiting VishNu Temples near you and performing PradakshiNams with the recital of appropriate StOtrams ( AchArya Sri Sooktis) .
 
7) Not buying Gold and precious metals  and deflecting those expenses towards an AchArya or a dhivya dEsa Kaimkaryam .
 
NamO SrI NrisimhAya,
V.Sadagopan
