Mantralaya-246

( Grantha Rachana of our Yatiraat Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru - 2)

Date : July 16 2008

Background

Ashaadha Bahula Chaturthi the poorvaradhana of Sri Jaiteertharu, the most powerful saint, Avatara chetana the sixth pontiff of our Acharya peetha will be celebrated at the sanctum of Yergol at the rock cave which is in the shape of Shankha, where the great yati composed the most valuable Teekas to our Sri  SriMadacharya’s writings.
Ashaadha Bahula Panchami Sri Jaiteertharu entered the Brindavana Sa Shareera on the bank of the Kagina river, near the Brindavana of Sri Akshobhyateertharu his guru the fifth pontiff of our Acharya Madhwaru at Malkheda, the 643rd years Aradhana celebration took place. It is highly appropriate to remember Sri Jaiteertharu while introducing the works of Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

The details of Grantha Rachana of Sri Raghavendrateertharu and the divine power and the pratibha of Mantralaya are described in the  series of Mantralaya(246)
 

Meaning

Sri Raghavendrateertharu continuously day in and day out performed the seva kainkarya of Sri Vidyalaksmi - Grantha Rachana  in the meticulously way, words fall short to describe the grandeur and the involvement of Sri Gurusarvabhoumaru. For our Sri  SriMadacharyaa's Dashaprakarna Sri Jaiteertharu has composed teekas in Yergol.Rayaru composed the Tippanis to all the teekas of  Sri Jaiteertharuaa's Dashaprakarana and became highly contented with gratitude. We say krutakrutya.

Then Sri Raghavendrateertharu took the Dashopanishadas one by one:
 

To all these Dashopanishadas  Sri Gururaya composed the granthas called as Khandaartha in accordance with the original opinion of our great Sri Jaiteertharu. All the Yatis are highly and sincerely offered their gratitude to Sri Jaiteertharu, the world will never forget Malkheda Yativarya   for this great task. In the most appropriate and convincing manner Sri Rayaru’s   Khandaarthas are the real masterpieces of all the times. Rayaru has composed   Vykhyaana to the sacred Pancha Suktas, full of divinity where in we find the complete description of Sri Hari in the scholarly style with Pratibhapurna:

Dear Devotees of the world, we are very proud to say that these Teekas, Tippanis and Vykhyaana have really simplified the gist of the philosophy of our Sri Anandateertha Bhagavatpaadacharyaru to the devotees and the sajjanas and a great noble task by our Divine  Yati Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu. Sri Jaiteertharu, Sri Vyasarajaru and Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu’s  writings simply recorded permanently the original gist of Sri Acharya Madhwaru.

We feel and say actually that this is Yati Dharma. It means Grantha Rachanas. Very sincerely, honestly with great interest Gururaya has completed this creativity.A great Puny Chetana is our Rayaru.I have used the present tense, as our Rayaru is amidst us in the  Neela Brindavana of Mantralaya. Ramayana and Mahabharata are our basic values of culture and humanity. Sri Raghavendrateertharu composed a beautiful poetry (Kavya) with devotion, inspired by our Acharya Madhwaruaa's Mahabharata Taatparya Nirnaya and named as:

"Bhaava Sangraha."

A Divine Gift to the Saaraswata Loka by our Rayaru.

The emotional ecstasy of Rayaru regarding  Rama and Krishna  cannot be described in words. There are certain devotees even to this day that without reading Mahabharata and Ramayana even a single page they will not take their food. Rayaru is highly concerned to his devotees, always thinks for them and for their welfare. Such a great kind Karunaalu Rayaru is our Mantralaya Rayaru. Having in the mind of such devotees, our Gururayaru has written the following books:
 


These two are the independent books just like Bhaava Sangraha. These books are the divine contribution of Sri Rayaru to Sri Hari. Witness the highest imaginative power ( Pratibha Satva) of Rayaru.    Sri Ramacharitrya Manjari is composed only in twelve shlokas,  that covers the vast and the  entire subject matter of Ramayana. The knowledge of précis covering all the points only in twelve shlokas, the world is simply amazed to see this. To describe the meaning of 12 shlokas today 12,000 pages are not sufficient. See the greatness of Rayaru. We can say it is like an elephant in the small mirror. But even this example is also not accurate. Thus in 12 shlokas we find the complete darshana of  Ramayana in Sri Ramacharitrya Manjari. The art of expanding and précising precis in the most appropriate style of Rayaru is highly praise worthy and also commendable in the whole world in general; and our Madhwa Philosophy in particular.

Rayaru was very much attracted by the   Bhaagavata’s Dashama Skandha. So in Sri Krisnha Charitrya Manjari the wide and vast subject of Mahabharata was composed only in twenty nine29 shlokas.The world scholars have simply amazed for the grandeur of the pratibha of our Rayaru. So far no one has done this credibility which Rayaru has done in the field of literature with epical approach in the most pleasant style. Thus the three works:

Bhaava Sangraha
Sri Ramacharitrya Manjari
Sri Krishna Chaaritrya Manjari

All the three are the independent works swatantra kruti, Maha Kavya. Great  contribution of Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

Devotees please see the 12th.shloka of Sri Ramacharitrya Manjari:

Iti Shree Ramacharitrya MnajareeLeshatahaKrutaa
RaghavendraenaYatinaaBhooyadRamaPrasadadaa
 

Again in the last 29th. Shloka  of  SriKrishnaCharitrya Manjari :

ItiShreeKrishnaCharitryaManjareeLeshatahaKrutaa
RaghavendraenaYUatinaaBhooyat KrishnaPrasadadaa

Sri Raghavendrateertharu how humbly prayed to Sri Hari at the end of the granthas exhibits the polite and honest feeling towards the devotees. By reading and listening this granthas the devotees will definitely obtain the Anugraha of Sri Krishna and Sri Rama.
