Sri Mattapallinatham Pranatosmi Nityam Namaha

Late Sri KSR Aarudra Iyengar was an authority in the field of Astrology. He had  been into Vedic Astrological Research and Consultation for over 40 years.

KSR Aarudra Iyengar was fortunate to be guided by Guru’s (Acharyas) who were stalwarts in the field of Vedic Astrology like Late Sri B V Raman, Sri, Kotikanikadhanam Tirukkudandai Agnihotram Ramanuja Thathacharyar Swami, Late Sri Mukkur Lakshminarasimhachariar, Late Sri G S Rau, Late Sri Nallanchakravarthy Sundaravaradachariar, Late Sri Shanmughasundaram, Sri Sundaram, Late Bala Josier Vidwan Lakshmanan and Sri Vijay of Vijaywada.

Late Sri KSR Aarudra Iyengar was a Sanskrit Scholar and well versed in Astrological Interpretations. He had read countless ancient Sanskrit & Tamil texts and scriptures on various topics related to astrology and life. In his forty years of consulting experience, he analysed & interpreted over 100,000 horoscopes. 

Late Sri KSR Aarudra Iyengar was an ardent follower of Lord Nrusimha, the ferocious avatar of Lord Vishnu, being half man and half lion but at the same time very kind at heart. He was specifically attached to Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami Temple at Mattapalli and was a regular visitor there. This is an ancient temple in a cave where it is believed Maharishi Bharadwaja used to pray to the Lord. Lord Nrusimha here is a “Swayambhu” which in Sanskrit means “self-manifested”.

Late Sri KSR Aarudra left for heavenly abode on the 2nd of July 2022. He was a man of tremendous mental strength and positivity. In his lifetime he had touched millions of lives positively, giving them direction and purpose. Though he is not with us anymore physically, he continues to live in us in our memories. 

May his soul Rest In Peace!

Om Shanti!
