The meaning of this Shloka of SRI RAGHAVENDRATANTRA by the greatest Devotee Sri Krishnavadhhotaru is that our Kind Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru will always Protect and take care everywhere and in all our undertakings. In the morning and in the day time, in the night and in the evening and the afternoon, during our sleep and awake - Jaagruti and Sushupti. In all my works and always Protect us.

Rayaru listens the call of the devotees carefully and affectionately.

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

I always Pray to our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru:

Ava Tvam Sadaa Sri Guro Raghavendra
Prabho Mae Shirasyaasu Hastam Nidehi

Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhouma you have to Protect me always and Prabho your Blessing Hand should always be on my head

The fourth Shloka of Sri Krishnachaaritramanjaree, the Sankalpa of Adhikamaasa and the grandeur of Dharma Karya with Naija Bhakti are described in Mantralaya(472).

Meaning

Each Shloka of Sri Krishnachaaritramanjari is full of Pratibhapurna and Pratibha Sampanna. This Mahakavya is a Mirror (RatnaGannadi - RannaGannadi) to the Gnyana Vaibhava and the Bhakti Vaibhava of our Yatiraat Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru. The Concise form is so meticulous that not even left a single incident, carefully covered and described in 29 Shlokas. We the world devotees are really amazed to know the style and the description of Sri Harisarvottamatva. Each word is representing the same Tatva and the kind concern of Uddhaara of our Rayaru cannot be excelled by any one.

The Daityas - Rakshasas and the Asuras after attaining several Boons( Varaas), they thought they have become powerful, became too indifferent and arrogant. Giving lot of troubles and nuisance to the Sajjanas and the Satvikas. Swami Sri Hari to Protect the Sajjanas and to Punish the wicked and the cruel ( Shishta Rakshjane Dushta Shikshe) took KRISHNAVATARA.For this kind act Swami is always active and ready round the clock of the whole year. Gokula is lucky and fortunate to have Sri Krishna Swami Leela Baala Leela, really superb.

Rakshan Vatsaanvayasaihi Bakamabhinadathho TigmaTunde Gruheetvaa
Preetim Kartum Sakheenaam Kharamapi Balato Ghaatayan Kaaliyaahim
Unmathhyodwaasya KrishnaamatiVimalaJalaam Yo Vyadhaaddaavavahnim
Suptaanavrutya Goshthhe Sthhitamapi BadasowDushtavrukshachchhidavyaat

The fourth Shloka not only describes bravery, chivalry of Lord Krishna, it describes the way in which Swami killed the deadly Asuras that too while playing with his friends of his age is a matter of Pride and honour to the Devotees of Mantralaya. All the useless unwanted demons became too heavy and the Mother Earth felt most uncomfortable with their weight. So Swami Sri took an oath to minimize the weight of Bhoo Maata.

So Paramatma Deva Shikhamani Sri Hari Sarvottama - SriMannNarayana took the Avatara of Sri Krishna and decided to spend the Baalaleela in Gokula. All these things are beautifully depicted, described with Bhaktipurassara by Mantralaya Rayaru. All the Mahimas Vyakhyana is beautifully made by Shreepadaputra Sri Laxminarayanacharyaru, Vidwatkulashreshthha Vidwat Chakra Choodamani. Each Vyakhyana is liked, cherished and nourished DAIVATVA DIVYATVA. Sri Krishna happily wandering with his friends of his age - Vatsaanvayasaihi along with the dear cows and the calves. They have actually forgotten the whole world when they were playing with complete involvement. Heart and mind fully engaged in the children's Play. The situation was like a climax. For Such an opportunity the Daitya by name Baka was awaiting anxiously to fall on Sri Krishna and finish off as per the advice of Kamsa. Baka thought this is the right time for him to finish off ! All may forget but Swami Sri Krishna always active, Jaagruti, never forgotten in His duties. Always acted promptly. We have to understand that though no body is looking at us, no one is there, we can do that. But Swami Sri Narayana will be watching carefully, HE WILL SEE, VERIFY and KEEP A RECORD OF THAT WHETHER OT IS GOOD OR BAD. So if we are not afraid of people, we have to be afraid of God, GOD FEARING.

ANU RENU TRUNA KAASHTHHA PARIPURNA SARVATRA SARVATANTRA
SWATANTRA SRI HARI PARAMATMA.

We cannot escape from his eyes which are always alert. So the Elders, Yativarenyas, Rushi Munis always impress on us THAT GOD IS THERE.BELIEVE HIM.

At this juncture when the Friends of BaalaGopala were busy in play, Baka immediately plunged on Krishna like a lion pouncing on the deer. Swami Sri Krishna never perturbed, Swami was extra cautious at that time than of Baka. Baka opened his mouth to kill, Swami immediately entered his mouth, burnt the throat, came out opened the mouth of Baka holding the two beaks separately, cut off the Baka's mouth and killed him.

Rakshan Vatsaanvayasaihi Bakamabhinadathho TigmaTunde Gruheetvaa

When we read this sentence of Shloka of our Sri Raghavendrateertharu, the whole incident comes before our eyes. Pratyaksha Darshana of Sahaja Sookshma Vichaara. We Hats off to our Mantralaya Rayaru for the great Rachana.

Dear Devotees today we are now in the middle of Adhikamaasa owing to the arrival of Pournima. We are quite happy to see the Dharma Jaagruti It is a very good augury. Along with this let us add Naija Bhakti Anusandhaana Anusarana to acquire Complete Punya and Purna Phala. We actively participate in all the programmes from the morning, when ever we go to the Sanctums, Mutts and the Temples. With patience and devotion participate in Pooja, Alankara, Naivedya, Hastodaka and also the Maha Mangalarati. Immediately after that we disperse and join the Mass or the Que for Mahaprasada. After Maha Mangalarati it is absolutely and most essential to offer our Prayer and Receive PhalaSamarpane of Swami.Praying whole heartedly we have to receive opening our two palms and joining them together with Bhakti this is PHALASAMARPANE. There is every possibility of missing this golden opportunity and straight way enter the Bhojanashaala and find our seat for meals. Meals will be there, it will not go anywhere, waiting for us. But the moment of PhalaSamarpane will not wait for us.

So we have to care this most significant time, which will Bless Paripurna Sampurna Phala easily. So let us not avail this Suvarna Avakasha with all care and caution.Because we have come from far off places to the Siddhi Mantralaya, let us make full use of our presence there, let us attain acquire what all is Blessed by Rayaru and remain grateful . On the Sacred bank of Tungabhadra Parama Vairagya Shiromani Sri Raghavendrateertha Yatiraataru is always Pratyaksha for the sake of His Devotees. For the sake of us Rayaru is in Mantralaya. I still remember the incident of my Maternal Uncle. He was an Acharya, Purohit - Rajpurohit. Well versed in Vedadhyana and Yaagnika. Always spent his time in the Pathhana of Stotra one by one. He was A GREAT DEVOTEE OF MANTRALAYA RAYARU. He had a Strong Desire, THAT He has to See Rayaru Pratyaksha - if not at least in dream. He never asked anything, neither wealth nor house. For the sake of this he left sleeping on the soft bed and slept on Shataranj(Jamakhane). He lived in the illage Gunhal. Years passed but no signs of dream. He was cleaning the Hanuman Temple every day since many years just like our Uttanooru Sri Gopaladasaru. At last one day he made up in his mind, that today morning I have cleaned the entire hall of the temple, now it is afternoon, the Sun is blazing, no one will come to the temple. Two times I will sweep the temple, after that I have to get a Coin if at all Rayara Anugraha is on me. So he did the same. For his great surprise in the centre of the temple that too in front of Praanadevaru he got a Coin. His joy knew no bonds ! Gururaya Your Anugraha is always with me, I have unnecessarily asked ! But I want to See you ! That night Rayaru appeared in his dream and said I am here only with you, though you can't see me.This incident happened 64 years back. So Devotees Rayaru is engaged in the Akhanda Deergha Japa below the Bhavya Divya Neela Brindavana in Mantralaya for the sake of Devotees:

BHAKUTARIGAAGI IRUTIRUVA RAYA GURURAYA MANTRANIKETANA
VARA MANTRALADALI.

My maternal uncle went home and placed the Coin in the Sampushta and worshipped till his last breath.

So on this auspicious Adhikamaasa along with our Dharma Jaagruti Paalana with grandeur and Vaibhava to acquire the Complete Punya Phala Purna Phala Siddhi Phala during this Adhikamaasa we have follow the Anusandhaana Anusarana of Bhakti without fail. As our Sri Hari Purushoittama is the Lord of this Adhikamaasa.

Dear Devotees as already described our Mantralaya Devotees are experiencing the Mahima of our Rayaru daily in one way or the other.They Siddha Sankalparu by the Anugraha of our Mantralaya Rayaru. Take a handful of Tulasi Dalasa in our hand, with devotion take the name of Rayaru and say the Tulasi are 21. Count the . What more is required in life?

AMALAA BHAKTIHI CHA SAADHANAM
MUKTIHI NAIJA SUKHAANUBHOOTIHI

We have to follow and practice in all our undertakings with firm faith and constant belief, We will definitely acquire the Anugraha of Sri Hari - Sri Vayudevaru - Sri Guru Madhwacharyaru and Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

Yemba Tatva Tilida Bhaktanige Atma Vishwasa Nambike Herala Pushkala ! Naavu Pratiyondu Karya Manasittu Maadidare Swamiya Anugraha Nishcita Sulabha

EKENA TULASI MAATRA DALENAAPI NAROTTAMAHA
POOJAYET BHAKTI BHAAVENA TAM RAKSHAAMI ITI MAT PANAHA

With pure heart and mind we have to Worship with intense bhakti if not with thousands of flowers at least with a Tulasi Dala, Sri Hari Vayu Gururayaru will accept happily.

Adake Yene Vaibhava Addhoori Aacharaneyaadaroo Bhakti Shakti Satya Satvapurnake Naavu Belekode Namage Dakkuvadu

ADHIKA MAASADA ADHIKA PUNYA
ADHIKASYA ADHIKA PHALAM.
