Date : Jan 10 2008

Background

Ibharamapura’s Appa a great devotee of Mantralayaru who has blessed Narasamma the daughter of Koppara Narasimhadevaru’s Archaka and the kindness of Appa are described here in the sacred series of Mantralaya(216) Ibharamapura’ Darshana 16.

Meaning

Mantralaya Rayaru’s great devotee Ibharamapura Krishnacharya popularly well known as Appa has practically did the propagation (prachaara) of Sri Harisarvottama and Vayujeevottama. Copmpletely attained the Siddhi of Rayaru and blessed by Sri Ashwathamacharya Chiranjeevi. Lead the noble life with divine light and always delighted the satvikas. This great scholar,bhakta,aparokshagnyani performing the pooja of Sri Panchamukhi Praanadevaru has fully understood the essence of Bichali Bhikshalaya, Manchali Mantralaya and Gaanadhaalu. There was not a single day in the routine of Appa without performing the pooja of Panchamukhi Praanadevaru. At the same time attained the Sugnyana fragrance by the paaraayana of Sudha of our Malakhed Sri Jaiteertharu. Spent the most important part of his life at the sanctum of Yergol in writing the Teekas Tippanis in the rock cave of Yergol. For this great task I say actually did the the Tapasya for writing the Teekas for the works of Sri Madhwacharyaru. Ibharamapura’s Appa went for sanchara and showed the greatness of the bank of Tungabhadra. Always carried the idol of Sri Panchamukhi with all the bag and the baggage accompanied and associated by his dear Sri Yogi Narayanacharya.

Once Appa came to the famous sanctum of Koppara (previously it was called as Karpara Kshetra).Here Sri Ashwath Narasimhadevaru is very promising Jaagruta. In front of Sri Narasimhadevaru Appa saw a stone Mantapa.There Appa found a Vrushabha(Basavanna). Appa’s memory went back and felt that this Vrushabha was none but Arjuna and SriMadacharya was none but Sri Bheemasena. This Vrushabha was listening the teachings of SriMadacharya prior to the janma of Sri Jaiteertharu all that scene came to the mind and heart of Appa after seeing the Vrushabha in Koppara. Sacred Krishna river’s bank attracted Appa to stay and perform Anushthana for a few days. In Koppara the daughter of the Archaka Narasamma she did not have Santana for a long time. Daily Narasamma was indulged in the seva of Sri Ashwath Narasimhadevaru. After the seva daily Narasamma was doing Namaskara with devotion to Appa. Once Archaka noticed this and said to his daughter Narasamma do the Namaskara to God and not to this uncultured ordinary villager.

Next day as usual Narasamma after the seva bowed to Appa. Along with Narasamma the Archaka also bowed to Appa.After the Namaskara the Archaka and Narasamma saw a huge serpent with open hood in place of Appa. Archaka and Narasamma frightened and trembled. Requested to excuse his blunder. Immediately Appa took his Roopa and said, Archaka I am ordinary uncultured villager, why do you respect me and regard me. After hearing the wordings Archaka came to know that Appa is a great Aparokshagnyani.

Then Appa asked Narasamma to receive two coconuts. While receiving the coconuts she could not hold and receive the first coconut properly. But Narasamma received the second coconut properly. Appa said you have two Santana phalas, the first Santana will not remain, but the second Santana will shine and perform the pooja of Sri Narasimhadevaru in Koppara and in future the sacred pooja will be continued by the second Santana of Narasamma.Tha second Santana was Sri Bheemasenacharya Archaka his Santana continued the Archaka vrutti.

Dear devotees we are really surprised to know the sacred and the noble personality of Ibharamapura’s Appa. All our Yatis, Gnyanis stress the parayana of Sudha and Parimala.What a great achievement and Siddhi in life Appa had obtained by the parayana of Sudha and Parimala. Koppara Sri Narasimhadevaru’s Archakas are greatly blessed by Appa. Sri Giriyacharya the great grand son’s son of  Sri Bheemasenacharya has written with the Ankita of KarparaNarasimha as below:
