anadhyayana kAlam for vedams and ubhaya vedams

by "SrI nrsimha seva rasikan" Oppiliappan kOil SrI VaradAccAri SaThakopan --Anadhyayanam originated when Swamy NammAzhwAr's dhivya MangaLa vigraham was brought from AzhwAr Thirunahari for adhyayana uthsavam at Srirangam and returned back at the end of this uthsavam, a period of two months(approximately). Since AzhwAr was away, there was no recitation at the dhivya dEsam temples and at homes. There are some people who say that the Anadhyana Kalam commences with the thirunakshatram of Thirumangai Mannan (Aazhwar) and concludes with the end of the holy month of Maargazhi. I am in favor of anadhyayana observance from Thirumangai Mannan's Thirunakshathram to KurEsar's Thirunakshathram (thai hastham). There may be different observances by different Matams & SvayamAchAryAs. As Srimath Azhagiya Singar's Thiruvadi, I follow the Sri Matam observances in Anadhyayana Kaalam. This is the anusanthAna Kramam at Sri Matam during Anadhyayana Kaalam: The observancs are different for the Mornings and the evenings at Sri Matam. The Prabhandha anusanthAnam and SaRRUmuRais are also different for the entire month of Marghazhi and for days outside Marghazhi during this anadhyayanam period at Sri Matam. Here they are:

A.
