Mantralaya-307

( Rayaru Teertha Yatra - 26)

Date : July 22 2009

Background

The  Pratyaksha Darshana - Saakshaatkaara of Manthaana Krishna at Udupi, inspired Rayaru to have Golden Sri BaalaGopala Murty a permanent record of the divine incident and the importance of the Upaasya Murty of  Sri Krishna and also the Mahima of  Sarva  Siddhi are described in Mantralaya(307).
 
 

Meaning

Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhouma Udupi Sanchara - Yaatra is very significant in the sacred history of Dwaita Peetha. It is interesting to know that the fifteenth pontiff of our  Vidya Mutt - Rayara Mutt Sri Vijayeendrateertharu - Sri Vibudhendrateertha Avataari and Sri Vadirajaswamigalu of Sode were in very  good cordial relation.

Sri Vadirajaru  showered abundant regard, respect and affection towards Sri Vijayeendrateertharu. So when Sri Vijayeendrateertharu came to the sanctum of Udupi Sri Vadirajaswamiji offered a Mutt permanently to reside that too in front of Kanakana Kindi in Udupi. From that day onwards our Rayara Mutt Swamijis reside in that Mutt only when ever they go to Udupi. So our Sri Raghavendrateertharu also stayed as per the request of Paryaaya Swamiji of Sri Vadirajaswami Sode Mutt and honoured immensely. In Udupi Sri Krishna Darshana to Rayaru - Pratyaksha Darshana of Sri Hari - Krishna  SriManNarayana actually talked with Sri Krishna. Sri Krishna danced in front of Rayaru played the flute, quite satisfied to the Veena of Bhairavee Raaga of Rayaru. Finally Sri Krishna sat with love and affection on the  lap of Rayaru and embraced. What more is required than this? It is the divine fortune of Sri Raghavendrateertharu the devotional ecstasy, Vairaagya and the  Aparokshagnyana are beyond our imagination. The world devotees are highly amazed to know all this. All this total sum is  for the welfare of the Manukula - Uddhaara of the satvikas.

As a mark of this divine incident Rayaru prepared the golden  pratima of Manthhaana Krishna Baala Roopa. Daily Aavaahana by Rayaru and thus became one among the pooja Murtys of Rayara Mutt along with Sri Moola Ramadevaru. Rayaru made this as his Upaasya Murty and attained Siddhi. In our SRS Mutt we say as SantanaGopalakrishna. Right from Rayaru the sacred tradition of  distributing Santaana Yantra, Bheeti Yantra and Sarva Siddhi Yantra started. Now the Yantras are filled with Sri Rayara  Moola Brindavana Mruttika of Mantralaya. Placed in a big silver vessel on the top of the Mantrakshate and will get the divine touch of SantaanaGopalaKrishna by the Swamiji and Swamiji will also shower the Siddhi by Abhi Mantra. Devotees are eager to receive and are Blessed immensely. There will be a long Que to receive before the Swamiji. I myself wear SarvaSiddhi Yantra and greatly Blessed by Rayaru : Sarvatra Sarva Karyeshu Jaya Pradaata. So we devotees say :

Tvameva Sarwaswa Mama Dehi Karaavalambam

Sri Mantralaya GuruRaghavendra. The Siddhi and the Saakshaatkaara of Sri Krishna Swami, Sri Raghavendrateertharu  is distributing liberally  to the masses of devotees and caring each and every one. We simply surrender our heart  to the great Siddhi of Rayaru. The mere utterance of  Mantralaya will purify our heart and mind. We choose the right path of life and living. Dear Devotees I have already said that all the Yantras are :

Sri Raghavendra GuruPaadaJalam Kashyaayam
MaatrottamaamGuruShirogata Mruttikaancha
Seve Sadaa Sakala Roga NvrattiHetum
SampraapyaSadgunaNidhimGuruRaghavendram

This shloka itself describes the importance of Rayara Mruttika.

Our Shreedavithalaru has said: Mruttika Jala Paana Muktige Sopaana !

Mix a little Mruttika in a teaspoonful of water and drink saying:

Om Sri Raghavendraya Namaha
                 and

Bichali Sri Appanacharya Priya Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurubhyo Namaha

We will be  free from all the worries, diseases and attain the Anugraha of Sri Raghavendra  Yatiraat. That much of Siddhi is in the Mruttika Brindavana Guru Shirogata Mruttika. Fear will ran away, all the efforts of wicked and evil forces will become futile and failure. Santanaapekshi will get SatSantana and above all what all you aspire in life will be fulfilled by Rayaru. Sarvatra Sarva Karyeshu Jaya Pradaata.

World devotees we devotees have no words to describe the magnanimity of our Rayaru. The Udupi Yaatra of Sri Raghavendrateertharu is beneficial in manifolds to all of us. Kind Yatiraat succeeded in acquiring the Boon(Vara) from Sri Krishna that He will be with Rayaru imparting all the Siddhi whatever Rayaru asks for the sake of the devotees. What a strange ? Rayaru did not ask anything for himself, but asked for the sake of the devotees. Swami said I will be with Raghavendra and making success of all your miracles. Your performance of Mahima Miracles is for the Uddhaara of Bhaktas. This is your last Janma.

Such an extraordinary Yatiraat is sitting below the Brindavana in the long Japa of Sri Hari in Mantralaya where Sri Prahladarajaru(Rayaru in the previous janma) performed Yaaga, So Rayaru is sitting in this Siddhi Kshetra. Rayaru has not given up his body. Rayaru  became invisible from our sight. Sitting in the Brindavana through our inward eyes we are able to see our Rayaru and always receive the Divyanugraha.

This much of staunch, strong Anusandhaana our Mantralaya devotees are having and they are experiencing the Siddhi and distributing the same to the others. Why to worry when Rayaru is for us and always protecting. Sri Raghavendrateertharu greatest devotee Bichali Sri Appanacharyaru has said in all the shlokas of :

Sri Raghavendrate Mangalashtaka:

Sri Mat Sat GuruRaghavendra Yatiraat Kuryaat Dhruvam Mangalam

(SriMatSadGuruRaghavendra Yatiraat Kuryaat Dhruvam Mangalam.

Sri Appanacharyaru has said with confidence. See the Bhakti of Sri Appanacharyaru. The author of Sri RaghavendraTantra  Sondur Sri Krishnavadhootaru has made it clear to all of us that we will attain Siddhi of Sri Raghavendrateertharu when we pronounce the name of Sri Appanacharya:

Japet Paschaat Appanarya Naama Mantram Japet Yathhaa
Sri Appanaryaaya Namaha Ityashtaksharo Manuhu

And also proclaimed to the world the importance of Sri Raghavendrateetrha Gurustotra composed by Bichali Sri Appanacharya that too spontaneous - through AshuKavitva:

Agnyaata Sri Gurustotropyetaat Prabhrati Vishwasan
Gurustotraarthha Mehaavam Pathhan Gurum Poojayam

Sri Krishnavadhootaru has said  honestly that previously he was not knowing Sri Gurustotra. By the Pathhana of Sri Gurustotra only gained the divine experience, faith and belief in Rayaru.  So appealed to the devotees to chant Sri Gurustotra knowing the real meaning of the shlokas.

For the convenience of the devotees : Learn Sri Raghavendra Gurustotra audio facility is provided in the website:www.patwari.org. English meaning of all the shlokas and Mangalashtakas are for ready reference.

Devotees  Sri Raghavendrateerthas 338th Aradhana is fast approaching. Kindly think of Mantralaya - Manchali and  Bhikshaalaya - Bichali and our  Sri Raghavendrateertharu - Sri Appanacharyaru.

Believed are benefitted and at the same time  do not hurt the feelings, insult and talk  lightly about  our Mantralaya GuruRayaru’s Devotees. Do not say what Siddhi he has attained? If some body thinks like this means he is not satvika and has no room either in Iha Loka or Para Loka. So respect, regard, be affectionate and courteous to the Rayara Devotees as Rayaru is   always residing  happily in the heart of his devotees. Rayaru is Bhaktaanugraha Premi.
