His Holiness Sri: Sri: Sri: Tridandi Chinna Jeeyar Swami ji has conceptualized a unique way of getting the benefit of chanting and increasing the memory power through Sri: Vishnu Sahasrana:ma Avadha:nam. Avadha:naṃ originated as a Sanskrit literary process and is revived by Telugu poets in modern times. It involves the partial improvisation of poems using specific themes, meters, forms, or words given by the audience or pundits. The performer is called Avadha:ni who answers through poems. It requires immense memory power and tests a person's capability of performing multiple tasks simultaneously.
His Holiness Sri: Sri: Sri: Chinna Jeeyar swami ji wanted to teach kids from a young age to develop these cognitive skills. So, Swami ji has applied the Avadha:na prakriya to Sri: Vishnu Sahasrana:mam so that anyone can master cognitive capabilities - of observation, memory, multitasking, task switching, retrieval, reasoning, and creativity in multiple modes of intelligence.
