(The grandeur of Bhakti Vaibhava in Mantralaya)

Date : Feb 28 2013

Background

Dear Devotees: Namaskara.

Happy to be with you all today with Mantralaya(501).

Gururaat Raghavendrasya Ekaikasmin Pradakshine
Sapta Dweepa Mahee YaatraPhalam Vindati Maanavaha

Our Gururaat Yatiraat Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu is so great Punyavantaru that Sri Krishnavadhootaru has described in Sri RaghavendraTantra that Devotees performing the Pradkshina of  Sri Raghavendrateertharu in Mantralaya with great devotion will yield the benefit of  all the Yatras of this world (Sapta Dweepa Mahee Yaatra Phala).

The continuation of Mantralaya (1008) Series began on this day of Maagha Shukla Pournima with Mantralaya(501).The grandeur of Bhakti Vaibhava in Mantralaya and the devotees Samarpana Bhaava (Complete Surrendering) are described in Mantralaya(501).


Meaning

Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru is too kind and affectionate to continue the Mantralaya Series. Maagha Shukla Chaturdashi Rayaru  happily accepted the humble Seva, Performed Sri Raghavendra Ashtakasharee Japa Homa at the  most Siddhi Kshetra  Bichali Japadakatti on the Sacred bank of Tungabhadra. On the day of  Pournima Gururayaru accepted the Suvarna Pallakki Seva in the morning at about 9.30. By the Paramaanugraha of Mantralaya Rayaru Mantralaya series reached to the world devotees every Thursday without any brake, non stop from Feb2004 and thus reached 500th. Now Rayaru continued Mantralaya(501) the holy Mantralaya Yaatra for 1008  Tulasi Dala Maala. I have completely surrendered  Kaayaa Vaachaa Manasaaa and bent with gratitude to the holy environment of the bank of SacredTungabhadra.

Tunga Teera Viraajam Bhaja Mana
Raghavendra Gururajam Bhaja Mana

Tunga Teera Viraajam Bhaja Mana
Karadhhruta Danda Kamandala Maalam

Mangalakara Mantralaya Vaasam
ungaaRamana Raajita Haasam

The devotees of Rayaru and the Dasas have sang and  actually danced joyfully with devotional ecstasy on the bank of Tungabhadra. Today the Vaibhava of Mantralaya is equal to the Vaibhava of Indradeva's Amaravati. We are amazed to experience the Shreekaara of Bhakti Saakaara and Siddhi Sampada in our Mantralaya. Extensive amenities of comfort to the devotees provided by our Rayaru expresses the kind concern to the devotees. To bless and protect all of us Brindavana Mandira Rayaru is engaged in Deergha Akhanda Japa of Sri Hari.

Mouna Vruta Priyo Mounee Mantralaya Krutaalayaha
Maangalya Beeja Mahima Mandito Mangalapradaha

Our Kind Yatiraat Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu is in Mounavruta, observing silence. Always engaged in the Akhanda Deergha Japa of Sri Hari to do the best possible to the devotees. For the sake of this Noble Task only sitting below the Bhavya Divya Neela Brindavana in Mantralaya and made Mantralaya as His own house:Mantralaya Krutaalayaha to bless and impart success in all our endeavours. Daily we find a large number of devotees performing  Urulu Seva, Hejje Namaskara, Pradakshina Seva both in the morning and in the evening.

Gururaat Raghavendrasya Ekaikasmin Pradakshine
Sapta Dweepa Mahee YaatraPhalam Vindati Maanavaha

Our Gururaat Yatiraat Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu is so great Punyavantaru that Sri Krishnavadhootaru has described in Sri RaghavendraTantra that devotees performing the Pradkshina of  Sri Raghavendrateertharu in Mantralaya with great devotion will yield the benefit of  all the Yatras of this world ,Sapta Dweepa Mahee Yaatra Phala.Utsavas and the Sevas in  Mantralaya are performed as per the schedule without delay.

Sri Raghavendraha Sakala Pradaata Swapaadakanjadwaya Bhaktimadbhyaha
Aghaadri Sambhedanadrushtivajraha Kshamasurendro Avatu Maam Sadaayam

Sri Raghavendrateertharu Blesses everything to the Devotees who are surrendered to the Lotus feet of Rayaru with complete devotion. Such devotees mere Darshana will simply vanish all our paapas, though it may be huge like a mountain, the Krupa Drushti of Rayara devotees will cut that mountain ;oke a diamond. Sri Raghavendrateertharu is too kind excuses  the follies of the repented devotees. Appanacharyaru said KshamaSurendra  is our Rayaru in excusing and protecting. Gururaya Please take care of me :Avatu Maam Sadaayam. So the world devotees attention is always towards Mantralaya. At the same time our Samarpana must also be:

Paapeenaam Agraganyoham Dayaloonaam Tvamaagraneehee
Tvaam Vinaa Nahi Jaanena Anyam Mama Aadya Uddhaarakaranam

Mantralaya Gururaya I am the top in the list of sinners and you are top in the list of Kindest Chetanas. yourself I do not know anybody except yourself. I know that you are my prme Uddhaarakaru. So please protect me. I am completely surrendered to you .

Now the Urulu Seva, means complete surrendering Sampurna Samarpita, We submit all our requirements,  admitting and repenting for the mistakes committed so far, request with intense prayer to our Mantralaya Rayaru to fulfill our desires Ishtaarthha. At that time all our feelings will become soft, a  great metamorphosis change by this Uruluseva. Many devotees have practically experienced this.Four days back I was in Mantralaya. A devotee from Gujarat was performing the Uruluseva, his wife was at the front she went on cleaning the Praakaara floor with a cloth. I pitied myself that they are not aware of the the importance of Uruluseva. I said please do not wipe off the floor, on this floor all the Punya Chetanas, Dasarus, Bhaktas including Rayaru have walked on this sacred yard , Tungeyangala Mangalakara Mantralaya. All the particles of that Punya will touch our body, we become pure and sacred, acquire the Siddhi and the Punya. When I said all this they stopped cleaning the floor. Now the smooth marble floor, but in those days only sand floor round the Praakaara. Devotees never took a bath after UruluSeva, though the sand particles were still on the body. By Urulu Seva all our feelings of love and affection will be blossomed, we simply become Samarpita to Rayaru and pray whole heartedly. So all are desirous of Uruluseva. When all the Punya  and the Siddhi are easily available. So the Dasasa have sang:

Munche Maadiri Neevu Manchale Yaatre

This time in Mantralaya two special incidents have won my heart. Suvarna Pallakki Utsava will be at 9.30 am. Really heavy glittering with gold. Two Sevakartas at the front two Sevakartas at the back have to  take the Pallkki on their shoulders and take a Pradakshina of Praakaara of Rayara Brindavana. Amidst the Mangala Vaadyas devotees peform the pathhana of Gurustotra with great devotion. One devotee actually Pronounced the Shloka of Sri Raghavendra Tantra:

Mantram Tae Mantralaya Dhaaman Bhuvi Japtuhu
Paatu Paadambho Laghu Nashyati Ati Dukhkham
Swamin Bhooman Bho Gururaja Sakalam Kurvanukoolam.

As a Mantra the world devotees are chanting the name of Sri Raghavendrateertharu with devotion. By doing this the devotees acquire the Anugraha of our Mantralaya Rayaru and all the miseries and the sorrows will be vanished soon. Swami Guru Raghavendra will make everything favourable and comfort in all the spheres of our family life and his son a young boy of 9years Chanting  Gurustotra with Padachcheda,  frequently touching the Pallakki and chasing his father, just as the calf follows the Cow was really heart touchy. Without my knowledge tears rolled on my cheeks. Famous shloka of Avadhootaru reminded me.

Smrutimaatrena Santushtam Prasiddha Karuna Nidhe
Prasanno Bhava Tae Poojaam Yathha Shakti Karomyaham.

Sri Raghavendrateertharu is very famous as Prasiddha Karunanidhe to Bless the Devotees by just remembering Rayaru in our heart and mind with complete devotion. Our Prayer is constant.Mantralaya Karunaalu cares only the real bhakti - True Bhakti, not any show nor Aadambara. Bhakti Purassara Samarpana is the main source to acquire the Anugraha of our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

The Samaaropa of day's Pooja Utsava concludes with the Maha Mangalarati in the evening at about 8.45pm. All the devotees will be waiting for that great occasion. It is proper time to submit our Prayer - Request to Rayaru. Archakas with great devotion perform Maha Mangalarati. We witness Bhakti Paraakaashthe Devotional Ecstasy. Akhanda Deergha Japa Nirata Gururaya accepts Mangalarati after the acceptance by 702 Sri Laxminarayana Saligrama, Sri Narahari - Rama - Krishna - Vedavyasa and Vayudevaru including all  the Alankara Seva Naivedya. To witness the Nitya Pooja Vaibhava of Sri Hari Sri Vayu Sri Gurugalu in one place Devotees please come to the sacred of Tungeyangala Mangalakara Mantralaya. Slowly the MahaMangalarati reaches the climax of Bhakti, all the devotees forget themselves and pronounce their desires to Protect:

Avatu Tvam (Avatvam) Sadaa Sri Guro Raghavendra
Prabho Mae Shirasyaasu Hastam Nidehi

At last the prayer of Archaka doing the MahaMangalarati will be really superb.ALL WILL BE PRAYING IN ONE VOICE.

Recently Sri Madhwa Navaratri Sri Madhwa Navami Celebrated in Mantralaya.Now Mantralaya Nava Mantralaya is getting ready meticulously for Guru Bhakti Utsava from March 13th  to March19th Sri Raghavendra Saptaaha. We remember the wordings of

Cheekalaparavi Sri Vijayadasaru-Uttanooru SriGopaladasaru-Manvi SriJagannathadasaru

A Great Divine Chetana descended from Heaven for our Uddhaara. Strictly followed Manudharma and Yatidharma. By the Special Anugraha of Sri Vayudevaru  Rayaru is engaged in Akhanda Deergha Japa in Mantralaya below the Brindavana for the sake of the Uddhaara of the world devotees.
