Mantralaya-2

(Selection of stone by Sri Raghavendraswami)

Background

This week  regarding the selection of stone by Sri Raghavendraswami of Mantralaya.
 

Meaning

Godly,divinely saint Sri Guru Raghavendraru desired to distribute His PUNYA to the people and enter the Brindavana in Mantralaya on ShravanaKrishnapaksha Dwiteeya, Thursday as per the will of Sri Hari.

The Diwan Venkanna of Adoni arranged Mantralaya village with Brahmins and Temples,shined Mantralaya with BrahmaTeja.For the sake of Rayaru Venkannapanth ordered and made Brindavana from a special stone. Sri Rayaru did not approve that Brindavana and said reserve this for the next Saint in Mantralaya. Later this was used for Sri Vadeendrateertharu. Asked Venkanna to make Brindavana from the stone which was in Madhavaram. Venkanna asked why to have that particular stone?. Sri Rayaru said during VANAVAASA:Sri Ramachandra devaru,Sita,Laxman have sat on that Holy Stone,so Brindavana and Praanadevaru are to made from that Holy Stone.

In that Holy Brindavana Sri Raghavendrateertharu entered yoga samadhi for uplifting the people at large , who so ever pray and remember Him.The Stotra Raja of our Sri Appanacharya that is Gurustotra is really Sanjeevini to all of us.

The three Brahmins who came to test Rayaru to get their desired dishes,they became Archakas from that day.Archana,Aradhana,Pooja are all of full of PAAVANA to the devotees.

Reciting GuruStotra the Abhisheka Jala Prokshana of Brindavana has yielded SARVASIDDHI. Archakas with this divine routine have become great.THE GADYA (Prose) of Sri Vedavyasacharya,Sri Raghavendracharya,Sri Rangacharya are still in the minds and hearts of the people of older generation. Now their sons and grandsons are continuing that pooja system with devotion.

The credit goes to the Tungabhadra Railway station, now called Mantralayam road , to have the first Brindavana of MOOLAMRUTTIKA of Sri RAYARU. Mantralayam Road is as sanctity as Mantralaya to the devotees of SRIRAYARU.
