Mantralaya-890

(The significance of Dakshinaayana and the desire of Hastodaka)

Date : July 16, 2020

Background

Dear Devotees:Namaskara,
YAA DEVI SARVA BHOOTHESHU MAATRU ROOPENA SAMSTHHITA
NAMAHA TASMAI NAMAHA TASMAI NAMAHA TASMAI NAMO NAMAHA

I have given my heart to this above shloka attracted me and impressed me a lot. Our Adhidaiva Kuladaiva Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu completely resembles like the above shloka. Affectionate  Rayaru is our mother, father, friend, close relative, Guru - teacher  Rayaru grants, fulfills and Blesses the devotees of this universe everything like a king and the guardian, takes care and  Protects the devotees as His own children. Such a kind affectionate Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurursarvabhoma Prabho kindly Protect – PAAHI  MAAM SRI RAGHAVENDRARYA!

Sri Krishnavadhootaru has rightly said in SRI RAGHAVENDRA TANTRA:

TVAM MAE MAATHAA TVAM PITHAA TVAM SAKHAA CHA
TVAM MAE BANDHUHU TVAM CHA DAATHAA DAYALUHU
TVAM MAE RAJA PALAKAHA TVAM GURUHU CHA
PUTRO AHAM TAE PAAHI MAAM!

This is nothing but the GURUSATVARAJA. We the Mantralaya devotees of this universe are completely surrendered to the lotus feet of our Mantraniketana Brindavana Mandira Sri Raghavendrateertharu

The significance of Dakshinaayana and the desire of Hastodaka of our Mantralaya devotees of this universe are described in Mantralaya(890).

Meaning:

It is quite heartening to welcome arrival of Bhaageerathhi to our sacred Tungabhadra on Thursday  Aashaadha Bahula  Ekadashi popular as Kaamaada Ekadshi. The devotional grandeur in Mantralaya is really exceptional. On this day from morning 10.30 to the Sunset is very auspicious and sacred. We say Punya Kaala Prava Kaala Night at about 10.30 Dakshinaayana begins. Sadaachaari Mantralaya devotees of this universe engage themselves in the Archana of Sri Hari Sri Vayu Kulaguru Sri Madhwaryararu with devotion and affection. Precious days to our Mantralaya devotees. First six months are of  Uttarayaana and then the next six months are Dakshinaayana. We have completed the Uttaraayana on this Thursday giving room to Dakshinaayana. Our first six months of Uttaraayana are one the day time to Gods and the Goddesses, which began on Pushya Shukla Pratipada. Dakshinaayana is the night time to our Gods and the Goddesses!

UTTARAAYANA DAKSINAAYANA DEVATEGALA VANDU HAGALU VANDU RAATRI
YERADOO SERI VAND DINA! NAMMA VANDU VARSHA DEVATEGALIGE VANDU DINA

The boon of Sri Hari to Raatri devi (Goddesses of Night) is that during this Dakshinaayana preference is given to Archana, Upaasana, Paaraayana, Stotra Japa,Pathhana, Bhajana, to follow certain Vrutaas during this time including certain rules and regulations of food restrictions. These rules and regulations will safe guard our health. Thus through all this we will become eligible to the affection and the Paramaanugraha of our Sri Hari. Our Sri Haridasas have rightly said Devotion, Strength and Easy method, plan is required.

BHAKTI BEKU SHAKTI BEKU BHAKTARIGE YUKTIBEKU

Mantralaya devotees of this universe follow all these rules and regulations of Chaaturmaasya Vruta to acquire the Anugraha of Sri Hari.

Practicing of Vrutas will minimize and wash out our Raajasa – Taamasa and purify to become a satvika. I will describe in the next series the Chaaturmaasya Deeksha of H. H. Sri Subudhendrateertharu!

Let me describe the significance of  holy Hastodaka Samarpana to our Adhidaiva Univerasal Divine Saint Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru in Mantralaya by our beloved Peethhaadhipati Parama Poojya Sri Subudhendrateertharu to  Rayaru’s Bhavya  Divya Neela  Moola Brindavana Sannidhaana. Offers  Gandha, Akshate, Tulasi and Teerthha and perform the Hastodaka withaffection and devotion. The Hstodaka Shloka is quite meaningful.

YATI HASTE JALAM DADYAAT BHAIKSHAM DADYAAT PUNAR JALAM
TADANNAM MERUNAATULYAM TATJALAM SAAGAROPAMAM
YATRA YATI BHUNKTE TATRA HARIHI BHUNKTE SWAYA
HARIHI YATRA BHUNKTE TATRA BHUNKTE JAGAT TRAYAM

The Samarpana of Hastodaka with devotion and affection first we offer water and then food and again offer water. Request to accept. That  water is equal to the water of the vast and the wide ocean. The offered food is equal to the height of Meru Parvata. Where Yati accepts and eats Sri Hari will also accept gladly. Where Sri Hari accepts all the Devaanu Devatas of all the three lokas will accept that Hastodaka.

This is the Mahima and the greatness of Hastodaka is really amazing.

AA ANNA UDAKA! ADAKAGI HASTODAKAKE ASHTONDU MAHATVA!

Bichali Japadakatti Sri Appanacharyaru the greatest devotee of our Mantralaya Rayaru was fortunate enough to perform the seva of Rayaru in all the three Janmas, as Lachamaari Sri Benakappa, Karajagi Shreedavithaladasaru and Kosigi Kowtal Sri GuruJagannathadasaru. Acquired the Purnaanugraha of our Rayaru. The Shatpadee of Sri GuruJagannathadasaru is simply superb. Full of devotional ecstasy.

TVANNAMAGEETHAM VADANE MADEEYE
TVAT SOUMYA ROOPAM HRUDAYE MAMA ASTU
TVAT PAADA PADMODAKAMASTU SHEERSHE
TVADARPITAANNAM JATHHARE BHAVAAN MAE
TVAT BHAKTA SANGAHA PRABHAVEN MAMAIYAVA
TVAT SANNIDHAANASYA MAMA SARVABHOUMA

My mouth should always Pronounce the Naama Japa Naama Pathhana of OM SRI RAGHAVENDRAAYA NAMAHA! The sober divine smiling face of our Rayaru should be permanent in my heart always. My head must receive the holy Paadodaka of our Mantralaya Prabhu Sri Raghavendrateertharu. My stomach has to receive Rayaru’s Hastodaka. Must be in the company of Sajjana Sadaachaaree devotees of our Rayaru and to be greatly impressed by them. This is the desire of  our greatest devotee Kosigi Kowtal Sri GuruJagannatharu. We are much impressed to know all these important things of our Rayaru by Sri GuruJagannathadasaru. Remembering the Punya Divya Siddhi Sannidhaana of our Rayaru through the sacred Anusandhaana through our inward eyes we are  able to see and enjoy the Sannidhaana of our VaraMantralaya - Mantraniketana - Mantrasiddhi  Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertharu! Today the Mantralaya devotees of this whole universe have completely Samarpitaru to

RAYARU’S  PAADODAKA  HASTODAKA MAHIMA PARAMAANUGRAHAANUGRAHA.

It is paining to all our Mantralaya devotees that certain Sudha Pandits refuse to accept Hastodaka and say that this is  UCHCHISHASTHA A ANNA! EVEN TIRUMALA SWAMI’S PRASADA AFTER DARSHANA ALSO DO NOT ACCEPT. This type of hardcore mentality is not wise and sane.
