Pontiff ParamaGuru of our VidyaMutt, Avatari of Sri Vibudhendrateertharu the  master of all the 64 Kalas and the author of 104 books, brought up and studied under the kind  and the able guidance of our Great Sri Vyasarajaru. Headquarters Kumbhakonam impressed a lot through His Knowledge and Divine Power as he took  the Avatara again to worship  our Sri MoolaRamadevaru.

The grandeur of Aaradhana Celebrations of Sri Vijayeendrateertharu  at Kumbhakonam we say the  Anugraha of Sri Hari.

Vijayeendra Karaabjothha Sudheendra Varaputrakaha

Our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

Raghavendra Gurum Raja Sarvabhouma Pada Sthhitam
Ramachandra Priyam Vande Rama Beeja Pratipaaditam

Sri Krishnavadhootaru described in Sri RaghavendraTantra that our Rayaru is very dear to Sri Ramahandra.

Sri Rama Seeta and Laxmana abandoned the Royal Dress and wore the Taapasa Rushi Muni dress as Kaikayee already presented Naarude( the saree and the dhotis were made of jute yarn). When Kaikayee placed and tabled her desire before Dasharathha, prior to that Manthhara purchased the same. It is really pity and shocking that how the wicked persons do the brain wash and spoil the whole entire cordial relationship of love and happiness. While accepting they never felt sorry nor grumbled. On the contrary Sri Ramachandra was cheerful and calm. As per the dress of Rushi Munis changed the hair style and tied like  Jataas. Guha the Great Bhakta of Sri Ramachandra gladly worshipped Sri Rama and requested all the three to Sit in his boat and  crossed the Pavitra Ganga. They visited the holy Asahrama of Sri Bharadwajamuni, the son of Sri Bruhaspatiacharya. They  felt  extremely happy to have the Darshana of Sri Bharadwajamuni. Moved further and crossed the holy  rivers of Krishna and Yamuna. Sri Rama offered his sincere r gards to the Mother Nature and then reached the abode of CHITRAKOOTA.

Teertwaa Krishnaam Prayaato Avatu Nijam Amalam Chitrarakoota Prapannam
SwaambaabhiBrhaataramtam Shruta Janaka Gatihi Saantvayan Vyuptateerthhaha

It seems in Sri Ramachaaritramanjari we are witnessing the scenes after scenes and the holy incidents of Ramayana, that too in a very precise way with all meanings. When they reached Chitrakoota Parvata full of greenery completely forgot the incidents happened so far in the Palace of Ayodhya.
Never remembered nor  felt sorry that he did not become the king of Ayodhya nor the cruel act of Kaikayee his step mother. They completely enjoyed the cool soothing effect of  Chitrakoota. The affectionate treatment Seva of brother Laxmana blossomed the hearts of Seeta Ramadeva and spent the days happily. Never felt boredom in the thick forest.

It is interesting to know that our Rayaru a great Vairaagi has described the Vairaagya of Sri Rama and the principle of Ati Sarvatra Varjayaet pertaining to  the worldly life, the kind concern and the cordial attitude towards the Sajjanas and the Satvikas. Ramachandra Priya Guru Raghavendrateertharu is the sublime of Vairaagya. Attained Sanyasa that too during the peak of his prime youth of 26years, leaving his beautiful life partner and young Son Laxminarayana who has not even completed 8years. We are amazed to know that Lord Sri Rama himself desired the Worship from Sri Raghavendrateertharu. After the Sanyasa and acquiring the Hamsanaamaka Peetha Sri Sudheendrateertharu named in the name of Raghava Rama RAGHAVENDRA. As Rayaru spoke did the same. Just like Rama We say the wordings of Rama were full of action, followed practically the path of truth, justice, affection and the Uddhaara of Manukula. So also is our Mantralaya Rayaru even to this day  though Sri Raghavendrateertharu is engaged  in the Deergha  khanda Japa in Mantralaya  sitting below the MoolaBrindavana:

Vidvadraaja\Shirahkireetakhachitaanarghyoruratnaprabhaa-
RaagaghaughahaPaadukaadvayacharaha PadmaakshaMaaladharaha |
BhaasvaddandaKamandalojvalakaro Raktaambaraadambaraha
ShrimadsadguruRaghavendrayatiraat Kuryaaddhruvam mangalam ||

Sri Ramachandra Sri Hari found the same similarity of Vaikunthha in Ayodhya and also in Chitrakoota. Vanavaasa - Aranyavaasa - Living in Forest is protect the Satvikas and the Rushi Munis and to Punish the wicked Asuras in those days. The noble duty of Dushta Shikshe Shista Paripaalane of Sri Hari is not at all changed. The routine of life started in Chitrakoota to Sri Rama Seeta and Laxmana. Happily they accepted and adjusted to the new life and  the new routine in Chitrakoota.

King Dasharathha Maharaja loved his sons too much. Sri Rama and Laxmana means Panchapraana - highly affectionate. When Dasharathha heard that Sri Rama  Seeta and Laxmana left Ayodhya and crossed  Ganga marching towards the Chitrakoota his grief knew no bonds. Simply Cried and wept soon he passed away owing to the heart fail. Then Kula Guru Vasishthha called Bharata and Shatrughna who were in Kakeya. Completed the formalities of Pitru Karya and Pitru Runa. Bharata did not agree to be the successor. The right person is Sri Ramahandra. The calculations of  Kaikeyee turned futile. Bharata got angry and upset that why his mother  Kaikayee is behaving in this way and spoilt the whole Happiness of Ayodhya yielded to the brain wash of Manthhara.

Dear Devotees even to this day women like Manthhara are still in several families to break the family and destruct the  Cordial Relations of affection and love. So we have to be careful in listening.  Assess and Judge properly do noit be carried away by others sayings.

Bharata along with Kousalydevi decided to go to the forest and request Sri Rama to return to Ayodhya. So moved towards Chitrakoota.Avatu Nijam Amalam Chitrarakoota Prapannam

Avatu Nijam Amalam Chitrarakoota Prapannam
SwaambaabhiBrhaataramtam Shruta Janaka Gatihi Saantvayan Vyuptateerthhaha

Conveyed the sad demise of Father Dasharathha. The grief Shoka of Rama Seeta and Laxmana Cannot be desribed in words. Even under such condition Sri Ramachandra consoled each and every body and offered Pitru Tarpana and Prayed for his father's soul to rest in  heaven with peace. Here we notice one thing that under any circumstances Sri Rama did duty properly. The duty mindedness Kartvya Paraayanate, never hesitated to perform his duty. So even after thousands and thousands of year we say Ramarajya, remember Ramarajya,Ramakarya, Ramavakya, Ramabaana. We say Ajaramara means always alive. Rama Pitru Vakya Paripaalaka, obeyed the order of his father.
Explained to Bharata that he will return only after the completion of 14 Years. Till that asked Bharata to rule Ayodhya. But the affectionate brother said, he will rule Ayodhya on behalf of Rama and will not sit on the throne Simhaasana. So requested Sri Rama to give his Padukas, he will keep the Paadukas on  the throne and he will look after the kingdom as the representative of Rama. Rama agreed and gave his Padukas to Bharata.

The broad outlook, affection and determination of Bharata is a model to the world. Kaikayee repented a lot for listening to the wordings of Manthhara. She never knew that so many things and consequences will arise in Ayodhya and the whole family will be broken into pieces and will be immersed in grief. For 14 years day in and day out only repentance and repentance. This incident is a caution to the world to think before you act and look before you leap. Sri Laxminarayanaharyaru has described in the Vyakhyana that our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru has prayed that such a noble Dheerodatta Dheera Prashanta Sri Rama protect all of us. With this universal prayer Rayaru performed the Seva of Sri MoolaRamadevaru for a period of five decades , Fifty  years.  Never left the Pranava Japa of ONE LAKH TIMES. That is the Siddhi of our Yatis rather than accepting the Paadapooja and indulging in Pravachana. These programmes  are also a part of  Bhaktaroddhaara. But the Pranava Japa of one lakh is absolutely necessary as per Yati Dharma. Our Mantralaya Rayaru not only fulfilled, but even now performing the Akhanda Japa always more than the requirement. So is the Punya of our Rayaru which is equal to the Himalayan height and reached the highest peak of Siddhi to protect the Manukula. This Punya is  increasing and growing considerably day by day.

Mounavruta Priyo Mounee Mantralaya Krutaalayaha
Maangalya Beeja Mahima Mandito Mangala Pradaha

Mantralaya Yatiraat is Mounee Mouna Vruta Priya, residing in Mantralaya to Bless and always do the good to the devotees in many ways. This a Boon Vara to us. We are grateful and bent with gratitude to our MANTRALAYA RAYARU.
