Mantralaya-420

( Sri Ramacharitramanjaree)

Date : Aug 31 2011

Background

Wish You All Happy Sri Ganesha Chaturthhi from Hampi Sri Yantroddharaaka Swami, Anegundi Navavrundavana,  Mantralaya and Bichali.

Sacred Proshthhapadi has already begun on Bhaadrapada Shukla Pratipada. Bhaagavata Purana is going on  in all the Temples, Mutts and in the houses of Mantralaya Devotees through out the world. 

The fifth shloka's Vyakhyana of Sri Ramachaaritramanjaree  by our Shreepada Putra Vidwat Chakra Choodamani Sri Laxminarayanacharyaru and the importance of  our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru's Seva Kaaya Vaachaa Manasaa are described in Mantralaya(420).


Meaning

The Concise and the Precise Grandeur of literary perfection and the efficiency of our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu cannot be compared with others. A unique imaginative power Pratibha Sampattu in Sri Ramachaaritramanjari is really wonderful. The fifth shloka's  only two lines are sufficient:

DashaVadana Hrutaam Aakrutim BhoomiJaayahaa
Anvishan Aarta Gradhram Swagatim Nayan Naamavet Ghnan Kambandham

Attractive Golden colour deer(Maareecha) simply took rounds to attract Seetadevi. Seetadevi wanted that deer. Sri Rama with his bows and arrows chased the deer. It took Sri Rama too far from the Ashrama of Panchavati. At last Sri Rama tired too much and did Baana Prayoga. Sri Rama Baana will never go invain! The deer took its real form of Maareecha and at the time of death cried loudly in the voice of Sri Rama saying Haa Seete ! Haa Laxmana ! It is a known fact that under any circumstances the wicked always do the wicked things. Maareecha is an example for this. Even at the last minute of his life, he did the crooked things and helped Raavana. When Sri Rama and Laxmana were not in Ashrama treacherously Carried Seeta. It is very important to know that Seeta Maata is Laxmi Sri Mahalaxmi. Always with Sri Hari in His heart. So Seeta Maata when Raavana entered the Ashrama She prepared her own Prati Roopa - same to same and went to Kailasa. Shiva and Parvati  became extremely happy to welcome Seeta Maata. They worshipped  and Seetadevi indulged in the Dhyaana of Sri Rama Sri Hari. This description is in accordance with our Dwaita Siddhanta Tatva.

Sri Hariyanagali Aragalige Taaniralu Sri Laxmidevi.

Raavana Carried the Pratikruti of Seeta, thinking that She is the real Seeta. and took her to Lanka.

DashaVadana Hrutaam Aakrutim BhoomiJaayahaa

What a beautiful sentence with appropriate meaning. Our Jagadoddhaara Sri Hari knew everything fully. For Loka Vidambana lamented over the separation of Seeta and started the search to find where  is Seeta?

On their way Sri Rama and Laxmana saw Jataayu.Garuda Pakshiraja. He was terribly hurt by Raavana. When Raavana was taking Seeta in his chariot through Antariksha Jataayu objected this injustice. Jataayu was sufficiently old. A close and dear friend of Ayodhya Maharaja Dasharathha. Dear World Devotees see the magnanimity and the affection of those days. How friendly they were, irrespective of status and Janma. Friendship between an emperor and the Garuda Pakshiraja. Jataayu simply obstructed the way and shouted you fool, coward, treacherously stealing Seeta when RamaLaxmana are not in the Ashrama. How dare you are to steal my friend's  daughter-in-law. Perched and pierced with his long wings to Raavana. Cruel Raavana cut off the two wings with his sword. Immediately Jataayu fell on the ground. Jataayu was almost about to leave his Praana. But to submit the report to Sri Rama he was simply holding his Praana. When Rama came detailed the whole thing. Rama knew the friendship of Jataayu and his dear father. So Rama always loved Jataayu. Sri Rama poured water in the mouth of Jataayu and gave Moksha.

Anvishan Aarta Gradhram Swagatim Nayan Maam Aavet Ghnan Kambandham

On the way of searching Seeta found the aged old Jataayu who was suffering with terrible heavy wounds.  Aarta Gradhram  Sri Ramadeva imparted Moksha to Jataayu. Killed Rakkasa Kabandha. Such a great Sri Rama  Maam Aavet. The Concise style of description of  our Mantralaya Yatiraat  Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru is really Superb. Everything is within the  divine frame work  of our Sadaachaara of our Acharya Sri MatAnandateertha Bhagavatpadacharyaru.

We Madhwas never even think that Sri Ramachandra and Seetadevi are separated. If we think in that way we will get Naraka. Sri Hari is always with Sri Mahalaxmi. Sri Rama is always with Seeta. In the heart of Sri MoolaRamadevaru Sri Moola Seeta is residing. This Abhedya Anusandhaana is the Cream of our Acharya Philosophy. So we have to  Regard and Respect and be Careful about such delicate matters of our Divine Culture

Dear Devotees  we are in the Seva of our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu. Now it is absolutely necessary to understand the importance of  three basic points in the Seva KAAYA  VAACHAA MANASAA. It is also described as Trikarana Poorvaka.

In Mantralaya we perform Pradakshina Seva and Saashtanga Namaskara in all the eight directions(Ashta Dikku) with complete devotion Bhakti Purassara. We have to Surrender Completely to our Gururayru. The whole body heart and mind are all Samarpita to our Yatiraat in the Pradakshina Seva and Saashtanga Namaskara. This is really  the symbol of KAAYAA.

While we are performing the Seva of  we have to speak about our Rayaru and not anything else. Let us perform the Pathhana of  Gurustotra Stotraraja of Bichali Japadakatti Sri Appanarya. Our likes this Stotra. A STOTRA OF ALL THE TIMES. We have to Pronounce properly understanding the meaning of  all the shlokas of  Sri Raghavendra Gurustotra and thus acquire the Punya and the Siddhi in life. No room should be given to talk anything except GURUSTOTRA. This is VAACHAA.

Sri Raghavendrateertharu is sitting with Padmasana  below the Bhavya Divya Neela  Brindavana in Mantralaya in the long Japa of Sri Hari Akhanda Deergha Japa. Blessing the Devotees with a smile. We have to think and feel. This Divine Picture is to be printed permanently in our heart. Our inward eyes must be seeing Sri Gururayaru always.When we are performing the Seva of our Mantralaya Rayaru. This is VAACHAA.

Let us be in the Seva of our Mantralaya Rayaru with KAAYA VAACHAA MANASAA. By Pradakshina Seva we will be getting:

Sarva Yaatraa Phalaavaaptai Yathha Shakti Pradakshinam

We have to witness the Abhisheka of Rayaru Chanting Sri Raghavendra Stotra. We have to be in the Dhyaana of Rayaru and apply the Sacred Punyakara Mruttika to our face and Uttamanga. Let us do this with complete concentration and Bhakti. By doing this we will acquire Chaturvidha Purushaarthha opine the Gnyanis of all the four Lokas.

One day  evening Sri Appanacharyaru  was sitting at the  Bichali Japadakatti  at the Sanctum of Ek Shila Brindavana.  The lullaby of Tungabhadra was constant as usual. Suddenly Appanacharyaru Composed the Mangalashtaka. In the Shloka the Seva of Rayaru KAAYA  VAACHAA  MANASAA is described beautifully.

YadVrindaavanaSapradakshinaNamaskaaraAbhishhekaStuti-
DhyaanaAraadhana MrittVilepanaMukaanAnekopachaaraan Sadaa
KaarankaaramAbhiprayaanti Chaturo Lokaha Pumarthaan Sadaa

To attain the Affection and the Anugraha of Rayaru money is not required but only Pure Bhakti that too KAAYA  VAACHAA  MANASAA IS REQUIRED.

Mantram Tae Mantralaya Dhaaman Bhuvi Japtuhu
Paatu Paadambho Laghu Nashyati Ati Dukhkham Swamin
Mantralaya Swamin.

Sri Krishnavadhootaru has said in SRI RAGHAVENDRATANTRA. The whole world is chanting as Mantra of our Mantralaya Dhaaman Sri Raghavendrateertharu. By doing this we will acquire the Anugraha of Rayaru and all the miseries and sorrows will be vanished soon. Let us all be in the Seva of Mantralaya Rayaru Trikaranapoorvaka:

KAAYAA   VAACHAA     MANASAA.

As Rayaru is Bhaktaanugraha Premi. Devotees I am again and again emphasizing on the above mentioned  intense style of Seva as our Rayaru is a Special Paramahamsaru with extraordinary qualities.He is the only Saint who is able to Vanish and  root out our Ill Fate. Sri Krishnavadhootaru has said in SRI RAGHAVENDRA TANTRA:

Yasya Yasyaasti Durdaiva Moola Nirnaashana Arhataa
Tasya Tasmyaiva Tantre Asmin Aasthhaasteetya Braveet Guruhu

Devotees who Believe that Rayaru is Capable of Vanishing  our Durdaiva Completely, only Such Devotees will Devotees are eligible to follow Sri RaghavendraTantra. This is told by Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu to Sri Krishnavadhootaru at the Shambhunatha Cave in Hampi on the bank of Tungabhadra. So we have to be in the Seva not by mere saying but by KAAYAA VAACHAA  MANASAA.
