( Immense Bhakti of Rayaru  towards Sri MoolaRamadevaru,9th.Shloka of Sri Ramachaaritramanjari)

Date : Nov 17 2011

Background

The  immense Bhakti of Sri Raghavendrateertharu  towards Sri MoolaRamadevaru, the importance of the  9th.Shloka of Sri Ramachaaritramanjari and the superb style of our Yatiraat Gururaat Sri Raghavendrateertharu  are described in Mantralaya(431).

Meaning

Mayaa Mohita Chittanaam Bhaktanaam Gnyanadaayine
Namaha Sri Hanumat Bheema Madhwaatmaka Hari Priya

Sri Krishnavadhootaru has rightly said in Sri RaghavendraTantra that our Rayaru is protecting the Bhaktas, imparting the right knowledge who are fully drowned in this worldly life. Avadhootaru said that I here by perform Saashtaanga Namaskara to our Sri Hanumat Bheema Madhwatmaka Haripriya  Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu. The world devotees are today overwhelmed with joy to read Sri Ramachaaritramanjari. Our Rayaru's Literature is fully blossomed with Paanditya and Pratibha We are fortunate to enjoy  the same quality in all the Kavyas.

In all the 12 shlokas of Sri Ramachaaritramajari the cream and the essence of Bhakti - Devotional values described is really amazing. The Saakshaatkara of Sri Hari Bhakti - Sri Rama Bhakti is Sarvswa to Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu.
 
In the Eighth shloka we have seen when Indrajit, the son of Raavana tried to hurt the entire Kapiveeraru with Naaga Paasha, Sri Ramachandradevaru simply asked to bring the mountain Gandhamaadan to Sri Hanumadevaru and saved all the brave and the courageous Kapis from the jaws of death. How kind is our Swami Sri Rama. The arrogance of Indrajit is simply increasing, Laxmana put an end to the  war with Indrajit, go attack and kill him. Laxmana obeyed the order of his brother Sri Rama and killed Indrajit. In Ramayana Sri Rama is patiently waiting for the opportunity to kill Raavana. Before that the Asuras one by one disappeared by RamaBaana. Sri Hari - Sri Rama is now happy that Kumbhakarna and Indrajit have given room to Raavana Samhaara.

Kravyadaan Ghnana Sankhyanapi Dashavadanam Brahmapurvaihi Sureshaihi
Pushpaihi Aakeeryamaano Hutavaha Vimalaapya Seetam Vidhaaya
Raksho Naathham Swabhaktam Swapuram Athhagataha PushpakasthhaSamastaihi
Samrajye Cha Abhishikto Nija Janam Akhilam Maanayan Mae Gatihi Syaat

In this single shloka the details and the description of hundreds of pages are covered. Though Concise the style is marvelous, amazing, appropriate with full of original thoughts and facts. This is possible only to:

Sri Vijayeendrateertha  Karabjothha Sudheendrateertha  Varaputrakaha
Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaha

Not possible to others. Sri Ramachandradevaru killed abundant Asuras Raakshas with RamaBaana and also the Lankadhipati Raavana.

Kravyadaan Ghnana Sankhyanapi Dashavadanam

Described only in one sentence. The extraordinary Concise Creativity  of our Gururayaru is the Anugraha of Sri Hari and Sri Vaagdevi.

Brahmapurvaihi Sureshaihi  Pushpaihi Aakeeryamaano

Brahmadeva and the Devatas  felt extremely happy towards the deed and the action of  our Sri Rama. They simply showered flowers on Rama. Pushpavrushti.

Pushpaihi Aakeeryamaano.  Happily accepted the Pushpavrushti. What a beautiful word, the Pada Prayoga of our Gururaat Sri Raghavendrateertharu is a challenge to the Saaraswataloka for the Concise and the Precise Creative Capability. Mantralaya Rayaru delighted with gratitude to the versatile noble task of Dushta Shikshe and Shishta Paripaalane of Sri Hari - Sri Rama.Swami resided in our Rayaru's heart and went on seeing through the inward eyes daily during the Pooja of Sri MoolaRamadevaru.

We can say Rayaru is Sampurna Samarpitaru to Sri MoolaRamadevaru:

Brahma Madhwa Jayaaryaadi Poojya Paado Viraajite
Sri Raghunandana Sampraapto MoolaRamastu ManMathhe

Seetadevi was under arrest of Raavana in the Ashokavana of Lanka. Always indulged in the Japa of Rama Mantra:

Raama Raameti Raameti Rame Raame Manorame
Sahasra Naama Tattulyam Sri RaamaNaama Varaanane

One day Parvati asked Lord Shiva that which is the Best Mantra to Chant. Then Lord Shiva said to Parvatidevi ( Varaanane) to Chant  Raama Mantra which is equal to the Pathhana of SahasraNaama VISHNUSAHASRANAAMA. RAAMA MANTRA IS THE SUPERB MANTRA. Seetadevi Chanted RaamaMantra  as a  Japa, Her stay in Ashokavana  was Tapa and became pure by the Japa of RaamaNaama.Agnideva proved the purity of Seeta, when Raama asked Seeta to prove her Purity  Seeta simply walkedthrough the Agni and became successful in Agnipareeksha.Agnideva did not hurt  Seeta. Though Sri Ramachandra had great faith and firm belief, he did it because let the world know the Purity of Seeta Maata. Ramayana is conveying  that such suspicious weak minded people were there even in those days. It means what is the precarious condition of today, we cannot even imagine?

So Our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu described the whole matter in a sentence:

Hutavaha Vimalaam Became Pure by entering Agni and  Proved the Purity . Sri Rama accepted the pure Seeta: Aapyam Seeta. Really crores and rores of Saashtanga Namaskara to Rayaru for the appropriate writing. Then Sri Ramadeva made Pattabhisheka to Satvika Vibheeshana as the king of Lanka and thus protected his Bhaktas - Paramabhaktas.

Vidhaaya  Raksho Naathham Swabhaktam

Raksho Naathham Swabhaktam. We are happy that Rayaru said  and clarified that those who believed Sri MoolaRamadeva are always benefitted. Never leaves the hands of his devotees.

In this way Sri Ramachandra completed the noble task one by one and then moved to Ayodhya by Pushpaka Vimaana along with his people.

PushpakasthhaSsmastaihi Samrajye Cha Abhishikto

And the Pattabhisheka of Sri Rama took place with grandeur. The citizens of Ayodhya welcomed with great honour and joy. The happiness and joy of the citizens of Ayodhya and Mithhila knew no bonds. The decoration of the palace of Ayodhya spoke the satisfaction of  the sajjanas and the satvikas of Ayodhya. Thus the Scene of Vaddolaga, Pattabhisheka of Sri Rama actually witnessed by the Devatas. Sri Rama and Seeta were sitting on the throne Simhaasana. Laxmana - Bharata - Shatrughna always accompanied. Sri Hanumadevaru was in the kind Seva of Sri Rama with folded hands.

Sri Rama took the charge of the administration of Ayodhya as the Emperor of Ayodhya. Blossomed the hearts of all through fair and fine administration and tried to impart the maximum justice to all.Mantralaya Rayaru is praying that such a great Sri Ramadeva Protect me and all the devotees. .

Mae Gatihi Syaat. Let Sri Rama - Sri MoolaRama fulfill all our Ishtaarthha Sarvabheeshta dear Devotees here it is very important to know that Sri Rama (Sri Hari) felt as though he is in Vaikunthha with all his dears. There is no limit and end to describe the  Bhakti - Gnyana - Vairagya - Pratibhaa Pandityya of our Gururayaru.

The finest concise and the precise form Rayaru introduced to the Saaraswataloka is ;

SRI RAMACHAARITRAMANJARI. So Bichali Japadakatti Appanarya amazed and highly impressed. At the beginning of Gurustotra only mentioned that too while crossing the Tungabhadra on the day of Shraavana Bahula Dwiteeya:

OM Sripurnabodha Guruteertha PayobdhiPaara
KaamaarimaakshaVishamaakshaShirahaSprushantee
Poorva UttaraAmita TarangaCharatsuHamsa
DevaaliSevitaparaanghriPayojalagnaa
Jeeva EeshaBhedaGunapoorti Jagatsu Satva
NeechochchaBhaava MukhaNakraGanaihi Sametaa
DurvaadyajaaPatirgilaihi GuruRaghavendra
VaagdevataaSaridamum Vimaleekarotu

Such is the Pratibha - Paanditya - Gnyana of our Yatiraataru
