Bichali Sri Appanacharyaru the greatest devotee of Rayaru, Antarangabhakta knew the kind heart, sankalpa siddhi has composed Sri Raghavendra Stotra with pure perfection of devotion affection and ecstasy through Aashukavitva when he thought that he cannot see his beloved guru Rayaru from shraavana bahula dwiteeya onwards.Bichali devotee Appanacharya cannot control his grief. Dear world devotees here we have to remember one thing that Bichali Sri Appanacharya was very close,dear,affectionate and Aapta, but he has never said any where his greatness and boasted. Actually lived with Rayaru and pleased the great chetana with his selfless pleasing seva,derived the maximum satisfaction and contentment,for this we say Rayaru and Appanacharya spent the most important part of their life in Bhikshaalaya -Bichali. Appanacharya samsaari - family man - gruhasta,chaturveda pandit,a great orator,a great commentator,a critic,gnyani,poet,imaginative poet,Varakavi, who has attained the complete blessings of Goddess araswati.A great scholar professor,dean and the vice chancellor of the open university- JAPADAKATTI situated amidst the nature's abundant beauty on the sacred bank of Tungabhadra which is always murmuring in Bichali :
BICHALI SRI APPANACHARYA PRIYA MANTRALAYA
SRI RAGHAVENDRATEERTHA GURUBHYO NAMAHA.
Uddhaara of his students was the main aim and thus always indulged in Adhyayana and Adhyaapana - Taddhitat Tapaha, Taddhitat Tapaha. During this time only Sri Appanacharya met Sri Raghavendrateertharu who came to Bichali. All the finest qualities efficiency of knowledge and perfection surrendered to Rayaru. Became a great devotee and above all today we know, regard Bichali Sri Appanacharya as the greatest devotee of Rayaru. Though Sri Appanacharya has attained the siddhi, the miraculous power, but never used for his personal benefit. He only used to prepare the prasaada for his large students by the divine grace of Sri Annapurneshwari. Appanacharya has never exhibited his mahima. Lived a gruhasta through out his life. Made his life meaningful saarthaka by the seva of Sri Raghavendrateertharu. A polite Vinayasheela bhakta.
Sri Krishnavadhootaru the author of Sri Raghavendra Tantra has openly admitted:
Sri Raghavendra GurvaranghrisamasaktaDhishanaagraniheehi
Appanarya Gurur Bhooyaat Asmaat Ishtaarthha
Siddhayae
Sri Krishnaavadhootaru had great faith - belief
-regard affection and bhakti towards Rayaru. Because Bichali Sri
Appanacharyaru was mainly responsible for the famous Siddhi
grantha:
SRI RAGHAVENDRATANTRA. When Sri Krishnaavadhootaru
wrote all this at that time Bichali Sri Appanacharya was not alive.
It is Mantralaya Rayaru who asked asked Appanacharya to wake up Sri
Krishnaavadhootaru through Gurustotra and enlighten him to Rayara Bhakti
and made possible for the famous book of all times Sri Raghavendra Tantra
just like Sri Gurustotra. It is Bichali Sri Appanacharya appeared
in the dream of Sondur Sri Krishnaavadhootaru and asked to chant Gurustotra
to acquire faith in Rayaru and and gain the complete Anugraha of Rayaru.
Through Krishnaavadhootaru we have come to know all these details and bow
to this great personality. Devotees look at the shloka of Krishnaavadhootaru
in Raghavendra Tantra:
AgnyaatGurustotropyaetaat Prabhrati Vishwasan GurustotrarthhamevaahamPathanGurumPoojayam
As per the guidelines of Rayaru Appanacharyaru did all this.
Bichali Appanacharyaru described the importance of Gurustotra pathana Guru pooja and the mahima, Krishnaavadhootaru has said that Gurustotra Pathana itself is Guru pooja Worship of Rayaru. We are amazed to know the bhakti of Rayaru and the importance of Gurustotra pathana. So today we find in Bichali:
Sri Teerthakshetra Japadakatti Bichali Sri Appanacharya
Ashtottara Shata Seva Welfare Trust.
A global project Seva to help the devotees of Mantralaya Rayaru by the Vamshashtharu of Sri Bichali Appanacharyaru in Bichali.Now the sixth head i.e.generation of Sri Appanacharya is Sri Badadha Ramacharya is looking after all this and he is the Archaka of Japadakatti of Bichali. The sixth generation satvika ,astika chetana Sri Ramacharya is always in Bichali at the Japadakatti welcoming the world devotees to Bichali and describing all the details with complete involvement. We are grateful to Sondur Sri Krishnaavadhootaru who has said as Sri Appanacharyaaya Namaha, then only Rayaru accepts our seva pathana.
Today satvika chetana vamshashtharu of Appanacharyaru's life and living are meaningful. Quite appreciable. Ramacharyaru is in Bichali and detailing all this, distributing the punya and enriching our knowledge and devotion to Rayaru. So world devotees please chant :
