Mantralaya-505

(Grandeur of Mantralaya and the manifold writings of Sri Sudheendrateertharu)

Date : March 27 2013

Background

Asmat Guroonaam Aadhikyam Kavihi Kovaa Anuvarnayet
Tathhaapi Tat Prasadena Bhaktya Kinchit Vadaamyaham

Our Guru Adhidaiva Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu is so great and extraordinary that it is not  fully possible to describe anybody in this universe.

Asmat Guroonaam Aadhikyam Kavihi Kovaa Anuvarnayet

But even then I am going to describe something about our Rayaru with devotion by the Paramaanugraha of Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

Tathhaapi Tat Prasadena Bhaktya Kinchit Vadaamyaham

These are the wordings of  Pandit Sri Narayanacharyaru's MAHAKAVYA  MAHAAN  KAVYA  SRI RAGHAVENDRA VIJAYA.

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

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

The importance of Sri Vijayeendrakaraabjothha Sri Sudheendravaraputakaha, the grandeur of Mantralaya and the manifold writings of Sri Sudheendrateertharu are described here in Mantralaya(505).

Meaning

Mantralaya Vaibhava reminds the Raja Vaibhava, so it is appropriate to remember, Regard and offer our Bhakti Samarpane to the Avataras of Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

A few devotees asked me why there is a large mass in Mantralaya in all the 365 days of the year. Here is the answer.

Devamasha Sri Shankukarna - Sri Prahlada- Sri Bahleeka - Sri Vyasateertharu ( Sri Vyasarajaru - Sri Vyasarayaru ) Avatari Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru is sitting below the Brindavana in Mantralaya and Performing the Deergha Akhanda Japa of Sri Hari for our Uddhaara and  always Protecting, Blessing in many ways. So the devotees are in the Seva of Sri Raghavendrateertharu in Mantralaya and surrendered completely. So there is always a large mass of devotees in Mantralaya.

Sri Krishnavadhootaru The greatest Devotee of Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu has described in Sri RaghavendraTantra that:
 
Hatwaa Cha Dushtaan Krimi Vruschikaanda Jaataan Mama Avyaat Gururaja Dandam
Bhindyaat Pishachaasura Yaksha Raksho Bhoota Gruhaadeen GuruPaada Renuhu

Rayaru will punish the wicked, the crooked and the poisonous creatures with Yati Danda and Protect us. We will be free from the danger  Bhoota -Preta - Pishaacha - Vaamaachaara - Vasheekarana  (Yaksha) and Rayara Mruttika will take care of all the Gruha Peeda. The wicked and the crooked people are too dangerous and poisonous, as the whole body and the heart will be full of poison.The wicked - the evil forces - the dushtas are highly venomous than these creatures mentioned below:

Vruschikasya Visham Puchchhe
Makshikaayaa Mukhe Visham
Takshakasya Visham Dante
SARVAANGE DURJANASYA TAT

Scorpio has poison in its tail, the fly has poison in its mouth, but the poison is filled in all the parts of the  wicked and the crooked people. MANTRALAYA RAYARU WILL DEFINITELY CARE AND PROTECT THE DEVOTEES. ALWAYS IMPARTS SUCCESS IN A MIRACULOUS WAY.

AGAMY MAHIMA LOKE RAGHAVENDRO MAHA YASHAAHAA
SRI MADHWAMATA DUGDHABDHI CHANDRO AVATU SADAA ANAGHAHA

The Phalguna maasa is the most auspicious and Punyaprada maasa to the devotees of Mantralaya. A series of Utsavas and celebrations one after the other follow automatically. The celebration of Sri Raghavendra Sapthaha held in Mantralaya, the grandeur and the joy of celebration with  Bhaktipurassara is a great record in the history of our Vidya Matha Mantralaya. On this occasion NAVARATNA RATHHA SAMARPANA to our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu by our present pontiff H.H.Sri Suyateendrateertha Swamiji. All this grandeur reminds the Royal Honour of :

SRI PRAHLADA - SRI BAHLEEKA - SRI VYASARAJARU.

We are amazed to the Drudha Sankalpa - Siddha Sankalpa and the Creative Capability-  (Krutushakti). This is the Sacred Yard of Tungabhadra( Mangalada Tungeyangala ) and the  Mansion of Siddhi and Victory (Maha Mane). We are overwhelmed to witness  the devotional ecstasy of Mantralaya devotees and the grandeur.

Sarva Tantra SwatantroAsow Sri Madhwa Mata Vardhanaha
Vijayeendra Karaabjothha Sudheendra VaraPutrakaha

Bichali Japadakatti Sri Appanaryaru has described in Gurustotra as our Sri Hari  is Sarvatantra Swatantra, Sarvashakta, Sarvatra Paripurna, Super and Superb, in the same way our Hari Mata Acharya Sri Madhwaru's Madhwa Mata and the great Yatitrayas of our Matha Vidya Matha:

Sri Vijayeendrateertharu-Sri Sudheendrateertharu-Sri Raghavendrateertharu

All the three Shined as Mahamahimas, great scholars,Haribhaktas and Avatarachetanas. We are really lucky and fortunate to have such Paramahamsas.

Sri Raghavendrateertharu's Pattabhisheka, Janma Dinotsava, the Aaradhana of : Sri Dheerendrateertharu-Sri Sudheendrateertharu-Sri Vadirajateertharu and Sri Vyasaraja Yativarenyas, a series of important puny kara events in this Phalgunamaasa.

RakshaShikshaika Dakshow RaghuTanaya Surendrow Jayeendram Sudheendram
Shreshthham Sri Raghavendram Sakalagunanidhim.

The 14th Pontiff Maanasapoojasakta Sri Surendrateertharu highly fortunate to have

Sri Vijayeendrateertharu and Sri Sudheendrateertharu as his shishyas and successors and also to know the details of our 17th. Pontiff as Avatara Chetanaru by Sri Vyasarajaru  in Hampi on  sacred the bank of  Tungabhadra. Now worshipping Sri Krishna desirous of worshipping Sri MoolaRamadevaru is none but Shankukarna-Prahlada- Bahleekaru is now Sri Vyasarajaru will take the Avatara as Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

SHRESHTHHAM SRI RAGHAVENDRAM SAKALA GUNA NIDHIM

The 11th Pontiff Sri Vibudhendrateertharu desirous of Sri Moola Rama Pooja, took rebirth in Nagalapura a village near Hampi as Vithala and named as  Sri Vishnuteertharu by Sri  Vyasarajaru, presented to Sri Surendrateertharu and named as Sri Vijayeendrateertharu. The 12th. Pontiff Sri Jitamitrateertharu Rudramsharu - Sri MoolaRama Poojasaktaru again born as Sri Ramachandracharya took the the Shishyatva  of Sri Surendrateertharu and Sri Vijayeendrateertharu  and took Ashrama as Sri Sudheendrateertharu  great scholar efficient of 4 Vedas, 6 Shastras, 18 Puranas and 64 Kalas written granthas of literary values. Sri Sudheendrateertharu made it clear that in the Adhyatmaloka  even the Paramahamsas are capable of Sahitya Rachana.

The role of Sri Surendrateertharu is of great importance in getting the Ratna Trayas - Paramahamsa Trayas to our Hamsanaamaka Paramatma's Saakshat Parampara of Jagadguru Sri Madhwacharyaru's Moola MahaSamsthhana - most important Dwaita Peetha. We opine that this is the Essence of  selfless sober life of Yativarenya:

PHALAVIDU SATVIKA BADUKINA VRUTTI HARI BHAKTI PRAVRUTTIGE

We are lucky enough to acquire the incarnation Punya and Anugraha in the form of YatiTrayas:

Sarva Tantra SwatantroAsow Sri Madhwa Mata Vardhanaha
Vijayeendra Karaabjothha Sudheendra VaraPutrakaha

All the three Efficient Paramahamsas of Acharya Tatvas Desired Manukuloddhaara, Madhwa Mata earned world fame and name.

Our Dasas have sang : SURAPANAALAYADANTE MANTRALAYA

Really true. Again we are amazed to look at the Sadhana - Siddhi Sankalpa - Bhaktaanugraha Prema - Lokoddhaara and the desire of extending the facilities and comforts to the world devotees who so ever are undertaking Mantralaya Yatra.

Mantralaya developed meticulously. The unforgettable contribution of our great Paramahamsas:

Sri Sujayeendrateertharu - Sri Sushameendrateertharu - Sri Suyateendrateertharu is a record in the history of Dwaita Peethha Vidya Matha Mantralaya. A warm Welcome, Divya Darshana of Rayaru - Seva Bhaagya, sumptuous food that to for two times, afternoon and night, what more we require than this in Mantralaya? Bent with gratitude to receive the Angara - Paramaanugraha of Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

It appears that as though Sri Sudheendrateertharu decided to attain the Lotus Feet of Sri Hari on the bank of Tungabhadra amidst the immense profound silence of  Anegundi island (Navavrundana)the Hampi Sanchara of Sri Sudheendrateertharu along with Sri Raghavendrateertharu was the last Sanchara. Sri Sudheendrateertharu Brindavanasthharu on Phalguna Bahula Dwiteeya. Sri Raghavendrateertharu immersed in grief by the departure of his beloved Guru. Experienced the feeling of an orphan. A great Sthhitapragnya decided to act according to the will and the wish of his Guru and seriously engaged in Granthha Rachana.

Sri Sudheendrateertharu was the Avatara of Rudramsha Sri Jitamitrateertharu, Shishya and the Successor of Sri Vijayeendrateertharu. Guru of  Mantralaya Mahaan Yatiraat  Gururaat Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

PARAMAHAMSARU TRIKAALA SMARANEEYARU.
