The Aho Raatri( Day and Night) Akhanda Japa of Sri Hari, the remembrance of previous births(Purva Janma Samskaara Samsarane), the Punya Sanchaya of our Gururayaru is protecting the Manukula and thus our welfare is enhanced by leaps and bounds.

Raghavendra Gururayara Sevisiro    Neev Soukhyadi Jeevisiro

Sri Shreedavithalaru has clearly described in the song. Mantralaya Sri Rayara Seva is really Punyaprada to the devotees of Mantralaya and to all. Thursday January 2012 Pushya Shuddha Ekadashi is the most Holy and the Sacred is Vaikunthha Ekadashi. This is also famous as Putrada Ekadashi. Hari Dina. On Bahula Dwiteeya the day of Pravesha to Brindavana Mandira for the Deergha Akhanda Jaapa of Sri Hari our Sri Raghavendrateertharu described the importance of Ekadashi and with great concern advised to observe fasting on the day of Ekadashi and indulge in Pooja Bhajan and Satsanga. This is VAIKUNTHHA EKADASHI. The doors of the Heaven will be opened on this day. In Tirupati Tirumala on the day of Vaikunthha Ekadashi there is a special and unique Decration of Flowers PUSHPAALANKARA to the temple of Sri Srinivasadevaru the complete ANANDANILAYA is fully decorated with various types of flowers. Hundreds of trucks of flowers are supplied for the same. We cannot find an inch of space without the flowers. Inside and outside the wall, the Prakaara. Abundant flowers participate in this Punyakarya and the blossomed flowers are really Saarthhaka and really Blessed by Sri Hari. It is a scene of worth seeing. In Mantralaya the devotees gathering is large owing to the Dhanurmaasa, we are at the fag end of Dakshinaayana and Uttaraayana is about to enter shortly. Elaborate preparations are in progress to welcome the Punya Parvakaala Uttaraayana Parvakaala. Mantralaya Devotees are desirous of taking the holy dip in the Tungabhadra on this day.

Rangottunga Taranga Mangalakara Sri Tungabhadra
Tungambodhi Tarangasya Vaatena Parishobhitae

On the day of Banadahunnime the Car Festival - Rathhotsava to Sri Banashankaridevi in Banashakari Badami. Special Pooja and Nandadeepa to MantralayaAmma Manchalemma on this day. The Kuladevata of Sri Prahladarajaru residing in Manchale for the sake of our Rayaru. Manchalemma is Shaambhavi - Saraswati - Laxmi - Annapurneshwari and Sarvswa to Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru and thus always Protecting. The Divinity - Daivata Saamarthhya of our Rayaru is Blossomed by the Vara and the Anugraha of Sri Manchalemma and Sri Hari.

Mantralaya Paramahamsacharya, Yatiraat Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru is always in   the Chintana of Uddhaara of Manukula. Saint Santa Hitachintaka Samraat JAGADGURU in the real sense. Several auspicious eves come, among them Vaikunthha Ekadashi is also one and unique.

In Hyderabad our Senior Mantralaya Devotee we call as Hiri Bhaktaru , celebrates this most auspicious Vaikunthha Ekadashi along with the likeminded Satvika Devotees who are always in cordial compliance to the devotional values of Mantralaya:

Sri Hari Sarvottama Sri Hara Vaishanavottama Sri Vayu Jeevottama and
Sri Guru Raghavendra Sarvottkrushta.

Our Senior Devotee has not taken any coaching of music etc. A Great lover of Music. Sings beautifully, meticulously composed more than thousand five hundred songs along with the group of likeminded devotees of Jaya Raghavendra Samiti. About hundred songs are composed by our Senior Devotee only, the contribution is always remembered in the hearts of our Mantralaya Devotees. On Vaikunthha Ekadashi they assemble in a house perform Pooja, Bhajan, Senior Devotee sings melodiously playing with the Veena. Completely forget the world and through inward eyes and the outward eyes the Darshana of BaalaGopala Sri Yantroddhaara Swami Sri Raghavendrateertharu. Mantralaya Rayaru affectionately with a smile Blesses our Senior Devotee. All these Devotional Experiences will be continued through out the Satsanga. The whole day programme of Vaikunthha Ekadashi is quite amazing. Our Senior Devotee is so Cordial and Harmony with all the   likeminded devotees. Senior Devotee is full of magnanimity Oudaarya. Heart is wide and broad. No Madi Myailige etc. The Senior Devotees Satsanga on Vaikunthha Ekadashi resembles Shweta Dweepa - Ksheera Samudra - Vaikunthha. Only the able Chetanas Yogya Jeevis are allowed to enter. Sanakaadi Rushis are allowed all the time. No Madi No Myalige. Everything is pure and holy there. We are making a show of purity and jump saying we are in Madi.In the Eyes of Swami Sri Hari only the good will be taken into the consideration and not Madi. Tirupati Tirumala is Bhoo Vaikunthha. There no Madi. All will be in the lines, day in and day out, not bothered whether they have taken bath or not? Stand in the Q and have the Darshana of Lord Sri Srinivasadevaru. At the exit the devotees will receive the Prasada the Prasada. That Prasada is the Naivedya offered to the Lord Sri Venkateshwara. We have to accept and should not think Madi etc.

In Aaditya Puranaantargata Sri Venkateshwara Purana we are amazed to know:

Venkataadrow Shuchi Kshetre Ashuchi Dosho Na Vidyate
Tasmaat Venkatanathhasya Bhuk Shesho Graahya Uttamaha
Tena Kshemam Prajaanaam Hi Vipareete Viparyaha

Hyderabad Senior Mantralaya Devotee's Satsanga along with the other likeminded devotees on Vaikunthha Ekadashi a record of Real Anugraha of Bhaktaanugraha Premi Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateerth Gurusarvabhoumaru. A mistake committed by a jeevi will be given a chance again to rectify, that is our rebirth Punarjanma. So we have to seek the advice of such noble selfless senior devotees and select the right path and lead the life properly.

Satsanga on Vaikunthha Ekadashi is the worship of Sri Hari through Bhaktipurassara Sangeeta Seva, Maanasollaasa and the Gunagaana of Sri Hari Vayu GuruRaghavendraru. As the Senior Devotee never desired Prachaara, nor eatables nor demanded money. Only the Selfless Seva and Complete Surrendering to Mantralaya Rayaru. Let us all seek the guidelines of such Rayaru's Devotees enlighten ourselves on this day of Vaikunthha Ekadashi. This is the highest ambition of mine - HARIDINADA HEBBAYAKE. More than this what can we aspire?
