(Malkhed Jayateertharu)

Background

The sanctity of Malkhed Jayateertharu and the composition of commentary of SUDHA of Jayateertharu by Sri Mantralaya Prabhu and the immense praise and appreciation of Rayaru are all described in the form of a poem
 

Meaning

Sri Jayateertharu is the sixth saint of Dvaita Peetha of Sri Madhwacharyaru.The very rememberance and pronouncing the name of Sri Jayateertharu, one will acquire devotion,knowledge and punya-our Manchale Rayaru has said like this.

Malkhed is situated in Karnataka in the Gulbarga district,Taluka sedam,on the bank of the river Kagina.Sri Rama’s son Kusha has performed tapasya here.After all the completion of the famous writings of Sri Madhwacharya-Sri Jayateertharu entered the brindavana and asked the shishyas to construct brindavana.The credit of establishing the victory pillar of Madhwa Siddhanta goes to Malkhed Jayarayaru. So famous place is our Malkhed.

Malkhed is only twenty five miles from Gulbarga. Santana Gopalakrishna,Malayadri Madhava,Kottala PranaDevaru are all inspired Sri Jayateertharu to stay in Malkhed.Daily pooja,Hastodaka, Sarva Seva-Poorna Seva are  going on to this VAIRAGYAMURTY JAYATEERTHA.Jayateertharu of Malkhed a great vairagymurthy,lover of profound silence ,calm and peace.He never takes SEVA,If we intend to perform SEVA, Jayateertharu directs us to Mantralaya. Though He discourages-people come in streams,take a holy dip in Kagina-take Darshana-Pooja Seva and get Phala Mantrakshatae and Shesha Vastra.They will get sumptuous food as prasada and then return to their places for their daily routine.

Malkhed is attracting the devotees like anything.The big hall now in front of Jayateertharu was only an open yard previously.There our Mantralaya Rayaru sat before Jayateertharu and received all the inspiration for the commentary of famous SUDHA.That yard now hall is very popularly called as SUDHAMANTAPA.

Mantralaya Rayaru wrote in appreciation of SUDHA are true and meaningful:
PRATYAKSHARAM PRATIPADAM
ANEKA KOOTI GARBHITA
PRATIBHATI SUDHATHAPI
GRANTHALPA TWAYA NOCHYATE.

Each and every word of Sudha is full of Pratibha(imagination) and meaning is as sweet as the voice of the cuckoo and this SUDHA is really Great.

Our Gururaya highly satisfied with the sanctity of Sri Jayateertharu and by dream he has occupied a place in Malkhed. Daily pooja –Hastodaka are all concluded with JAYATEERTH STUTI and Appanacharya’s Sri Raghavendrara Guru Stotra at the time of
Mahamangalarati.The entire proceedings are all of punya and Mangala to the devotees.
Karteeka Deepostava to Jayateertharu imparts Knowledge and Bhakti.The heart always feels and throbs for Malkhed.
