The Aaradhana of Parama Bhaagavatottama Dhruva Avatari  Sri Shreepadarajaru Mulabagilu was held on Sunday on Jyeshthha Sukla Chaturdashi June03.2012 with devotion and grandeur by all the followers of Dwaita Siddhantis

Namaha Sri Shreepadarajaaya   Namaste  Sri Vyasayogine
Namaha Sri Purandaraarya  Sri Vijayarajaayate Namaha.

This is a popular prayer shloka of all the Mantralaya Devotees. Today the world is echoing of Sri Raghavendra Gurustotra composed by the greatest devotee that too spontaneously who has actually lived together and performed the intense  Seva of our Gururayaru. Sri Appanacharyaru's Karmabhoomi Punyabhoomi Bichali Japadakatti situated on the Sacred bank of Tungabhadra. Sri Vibudhendrateertharu  the 11th.Pontiff who took Sanyasa by Sri Ramachandrateertharu the 10th. Pontiff of our Acharya Peethha, performed Japa and Tapa at this Bichali Japadakatti. Owing to the Ashwath Vruksha at the Bichali Japadakatti Sri Shreepadarajaru did the Pratishthhaapana of Sri Narahari and performed Japa Tapa, also installed at the back of Sri Narasimhadevaru Suryanarayana and at the bottom Ushapratyoosha. This is a great contribution of Sri Shreepadarajaru to our world devotees of Mantralaya. As already described when Sri Raghavendrateertharu visited Bichali Japadakatti  Sri  UgraNarasimhadevaru  the remembrance of Prahlada Avatara  ame at once fully involved and expressed gratitude to Sri Hari. How kind and affectionate to Him in all the Avataras. Rayaru remembered the reply given on that day:

Naitaan Vihaaya Krupanaan Vimuksha Yeko Naanyam

And the Abhaya of Sri Narahari echoed in the heart of Rayaru:

Madbhaktaahaa Tvaam Anuvrutaahaa

After a day or two got the the Divya Darshana of Sri Krisahnadwaipayanaru that too in the sky prasthhaana to Vaikunthha in Pushpaka Vimaana. Then Called Diwan Venkanna to Bichali and expressed the desire to be in Brindavana Mandira for the Akhanda Deergha Japa of Sri Hari in the Vara Siddhi Kshetra Mantralaya and to make all the necessary arrangements in the Village Manchali. Manchali became Mantralaya by Rayaru.Thus the cordial affectionate relations of our VidyaMutt and Sri Shreepadarajaru is a great record in the history of Dwaita Yativarenyas.

Sri Shreepadarajaru was born in the village Abbur of Karnatka, Mysore district,Taluka Chennapatna to a sober and satvika Brahmin by name Sheshagiriyappa and Giriyamma. Parents named the child as Laxminarayana. As per the Sankalpa of Sri Hari  in Abbur only Sri Swarnavarnateertharu met the young boy Laxminarayana, very much attracted and Aparokshagnyani Sri Swaranavarnateertharu decided that Laxminarayana will be his successor in future. Called the Parents and magnanimously requested them to stay in the Mutt. Performed the Upanayana in the cave of Sri Purushottamateertharu, made his successor and named as Sri Laxminarayanamunigalu. Sri Swarnavarnateertharu slowly taught everything and handed over the charge of the Mutt and introduced the  Protocol of Pooja Vidhi Vidhaana.Sri Vibudhendrateertharu who took Sanyasa Ashrama by  the 10th. Pontiff Sri Ramachandrateertharu  inYergol and  Sri Laxminarayanamuni together performed the Sankalpa of Chaaturmaasa at  the Punya Siddhi Kshetra of Koppara (situated on the Sac ed bank of Krishna, in Karnataka, District Raichur, Taluka Devadurga) the Sannidhaana of Sri Narasimhadevaru. It is quite surprising  to know the deep, cordial, affectionate relationship between   Baala Sanyasi Sri Laxminarayanamuni and our Sri Vibudhendrateertharu  a senior pontiff who was much elder in age, experience etc. It is the Sankalpa of Sri Hari and the Baandhavya of our VidyMutt and Mulabaagilu Sri Shreepadarajaru. Both the yativarenyas performing the pooja of the Adhidaiva Aradhya of their respective mutts, religious discourses, Pravachana, Manukuloddhaara and so on went on smoothly at the Sanctum of Koppara.

Sri Ramachandrateertharu the 10th.Pontiff of Acharya Peethha first gave Sanyasa Ashrama  to Sri Vibudhendrateertharu, later gave the Ashrama to Sri Vidyanidhiteertharu and later succeeded by  Sri Raghunathateertharu the 12th.Pontiff of Uttaradimutt came to Koppara. Respected and Regarded  Sri Vibudhendrateertharu as Ashrama Jyeshthharu. Surprised to see Baala Sanyasi Sri Laxminarayanamunigalu, simply quoted a difficult and confusing sentence of Sudha Granthha.Sri Laxminarayanamuni Parama Bhaagavataru, Daivee Chetanaru   Dhruva Avatari, Aparokshagnyani,  though too young, described Sudha Granthha meticulously and covered completely and cleared  all the doubts in front of Sri Vibudhendrateertharu. 

Sri Raghunathateertharu really stunned to listen.  Amazed to know the Paanditya Praised whole heartedly. Sri Laxminarayanamuni said  I am  only a BaalaSanyasi, you are the Peethhadhipati of Uttaradimutt, a great Sudha Pandit. What little I know I have honestly put my efforts to describe the Sudha in the simplest way. Now the Swamiji Sri Raghunathateertharu realized that unnecessarily I have tested the knowledge of Sri Laxminarayanamuni, thinking that he will not reply to my question. Again and again praised the Shishya of Sri Swarnavarnateertha Sri Laxminarayanamuni and in praise said, I am  only the Pontiff of the Uttaradimutt. You are not only a Muni, Yogi,Swami, Pontiff, Paramahamsa  but  you are Shreepadarajaru Shreepaadangalavaru  means  Swamiji. Shreepaadangalavaru's king SHREEPADARAJARU. Honoured with this title to Sri Laxminarayanamuni. Sri Vibudhendrateertharu who was present at that time, happily said in future you will be called as Sri  Shreepadarajaru and will earn name and fame in the coming day . Sri Vibudhendrateertharu's wordings became true.

Sri Shreepadarajaru and Vidya Mutt are cordial and affectionate. We are happy to know that  Mulabaagilu  Sri Shreepadarajaru  was  the Vidya Guru of Sri Vyasarajaru. It is quite interesting to know that Sri Vibudhendrateertharu was  born in  Naagalapura near Hampi as Vishnuteertharu, studied under the able guidance of Sri Vyasarajaru. When the 14th Pontiff of our Vidya Mutt  Sri Surendrateertharu  Maanasapooja Mahamahimaru visited  Hampi Sri Vyasarajaru met and detailed the whole thing about the Avatara of the pioneer of Vidya Mutt  Sri Vibudhendrateertharu, Sri Jitamitraru and also Himself to worship Sri MoolaRamadevaru as Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

Describing all in detail handed over His dearest and the most beloved Sri Vishnuteertha to Sri Surendrateertharu to accept as his successor and name as Sri Vijayeendrateertharu. Thus became the Paramaguru and became the founder of VidyaPeethha in Kumbhakonam and geared up top the noble cause of Dwaita Matoddhaara and Manukuloddhaara.

Dear devotees the Ashwathhvruksha at the Bichali Japadakatti, affection towards Mantralaya Mutt  Vidya Peethha and the Saakshatkara of  Sri UgraNarasimhadevaru are the prime features of Sri Shreepadarajaru.  The Daivee Saakshaatkara of Mantralaya Bhaktaanugrahapremi Sri Raghavendrateertha  Gurusarvabhoumaru is  Blessing the Devotees of this Universe for all times.

Divaa Prabhaate Nishi Cha Pradoshe Madhyam Dinae Avyaan Mama Jaagarookaha
Sarveshu Kaaryeshu Cha Sarvadaa Maam Paayaat Guruhu MatKruta Sannidhaanaha
