Mantralaya-89

(The importance of Tulasi and Dwaadashi Purusha)

Date : 17 Nov 2005

Background

The importance of Tulasi and Karteeka Shuddha Dwaadashi and the attitude of Mantralaya Rayaru not accepting Moksha(Mukti) by Sri Hari are described in Mantralaya(89).
 

Meaning

Kaarteeka Shuddha Dwaadashi is popularly called as Utthhaana Dwaadashi. All the religious,cultured houses will perform the Pooja of TULASI and pronounce Sri Radha Karteeka Damodhara Prasanna : upholding Hari Sarvottamatva,Tulasi Wedding with the branch of Aavala
thinking and feeling the  Aavaasa of Sri Hari- Tulasi as Lakshmi.  Decoration  of Tulasi Brindavana worshipping and praying have attained all the happiness in life. Mantralaya Rayaru is very fond of Tulasi. Our Dasaru Abhinav Janardhana Vithala has described in one of the songs :TungaTeeradi Ninta Su Yativara Naare  Paelammayya-Jalajamaniyu Koralalli. Tulasi Manis looked like the lotus flowers to Rayaru. Dasarayas  have  satisfied whole heartedly.

The sanctity of Tulasi is inaccordance with our Hari Mata i.e. Hari Sarvottamatva and Vayu Jeevottama-the philosophy of our Sri Madhwacharya. Worshipping the Tulasi the Satvikas will get all the good things in life.Tulasi is the only means of goodness through out the life.In Mantralaya we can find the Sacred Tulasi Garden behind Sri Matha situated on the bank of Tungabhadra River,always fresh and ready.

We ordinary human beings how can we perform the marriages of gods and goddesses.It is possible for us? It is only the day of remembrance and celebrations of those sacred incidents. Sri Hari is all in all. Sri Hari is the creator, protector and the main inspirer of all the actions and deeds.We have honour and obey with gratitude.

Surrender the entire thing with Samarpana Bhaava i.e. Dasoham and believe in Hari Sarvottama and Vayu Jeevottama. The Miracle of Mantralaya Rayaru is to shape the betterment of the Devotees. This is the Essence of  Bhaagavata.When Sri Hari became PRATYAKSHA
 several have asked several things several Boons(Varas). It is only Sri Raghavendrateertharu who did not ask anything. Rayaru prayed to Sri Hari to Bestow such a Boon that he did not desire for any Boons. Then Sri Hari asked to come along with him and get MOKSHA(MUKTI). Mantralaya Rayaru expressed the unwillingness to join Mukti as he cannot leave the poor sufferers  suffering several problems. Wished to solve the problems to the maximum extent.

During Prahlad Avatara,P rahlada was the only competent to pacify,cooldown and please the fearful Narasimha Roopa,through Stotras with great Devotion.Rayaru is very obedient,meek, submissive and sincere to Sri Hari.

Thus our Mantralaya Rayaru is Brindavana Mandira with Yoga Mudra.By the Grace of  Sri Hari Mantralaya Rayaru is doing several Miracles to the needy and true Devotees. Mantralaya Rayaru is the Architect of Manukula  Showering Divya Anugraha. This Divine Light has spread through out the world and Blessing the Satvikas and Sajjanas.
