Meaning

Let us go into the details of the Mahima and the greatness of Mahabhaarata’s  Dharmakshetra  Kurukshetra. The holy and the sacred land of Yagnya Yaaga the Yaagabhoomi of Sri Brahmadevaru. Kuru Maharaja performed the Seva of all the Sri Hari Hara Brahmaadi! Gods highly pleased and as a gift gave this vast area consisting of 7 forests, 7 rivers, the total area of 130 Kilometers 35 Kilometers breadth. Full of sanctity. Kurumaharaja desired to build a Vidyapeethha – Vidyakendra – Adhyatma Vidyakendra on the sacred bank of Saraswathee river.  Center of Adhytma i.e. the Adhyatma Vidyakendra. So began the work of cleaning and ploughing the land with all the agricultural instruments completely made of gold. 48 miles of vast area was made ready at the rate of 7 miles per day for the agricultural purpose. The remaining land for sports and the other cultural activities. Dharmakshetra was renovated by Kururaja so it is called as Kurukshetra! Prateeparajana had three sons by name:  Devaapi, Baahleekarajaru and Shantanu

By birth Devaapi was weak and diseased. So could not rule the kingdom. Baahleekaru ruled the Baahleeka kingdom, as the Prateeparaja’s father-in-law had no sons, so adopted Baahleekaru. Now I wish to draw the attention of all the Mantralaya Rayaru’s devotees that Baahleekaru became very popular and famous by his noble personality BAAHLEEKO MAHABALASAOTTAMAHA. Quite liberal and magnanimous just like DAANASHOORA KARNA. Shantanu the third son of Prateeparaja ruled and became the Moolapurusha of KURU PANDAVAS.  Bheeshmacharya was born as son to the cursed Shaapagrasta Samudraraja ocean king Shantanu and Gangadevi. Even Gangadevi was also cursed.

Sri Baahleekarajaru, the eldest uncle – DODDAPPA to  Bheeshmacharyaru. THE EIGHTEEN DAYS GREAT WAR OF MAHABHAARATA BETWEEN KOURAVAS AND PANDAVAS TOOK PLACE HERE ONLY ON THIS SACRED DHARMAKSHETRA KURUKSHETRA.

It is interesting to know that Sri Baahleekarajaru practically participated in this great war. Karmaja Devatha Sri  Shankukarnaru Parama Bhagavadbhkta Bhaagavatottama Sri Prahaladarajaru took avataara as   Sri Baahleekarajaru quite brightened with strength, valour and courage. The bliss of divinity was always shining on the face of Sri Baahleekarajaru! It seems this divine punya chetana was completely  fed up with Daityakula and Kshatriyakula  desired to attain Viprakula and Paramahamsatva. Longed to meet his end in the hands of Sri Vayudevaravataari Sri Bheemasenaru. Mahabhaarata war offered the best opportunity to Sri Baahleekarajaru to acquire: 

SRI VYASARAJATEERTHAAVATAARA   SRI RAGHAVENDRTEERTHAAVATAARA!

The greatness and the Mahima of Gouthamagotra is quite model and the whole universe is Regarding and respecting. Sri Hamsanaamaka Paramatma’s  Saakshaat Parampara Jagadguru Bhagavatpada Acharya Sri MannMadhwacharyaru’s   Moolmahasamsthhaana Vidyamatha’s 17th  Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathi Sri Raghavendrateertharu became world famous, the name and the fame of Mantralaya Rayaramatha soread throughout the universe.

Sri Vijayeendrateertha Sri Sudheendrateertharus  Parmshishyaru Sri Raghavvendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru are the Ratnatraya Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathees of our Rayaramatha. 

SRI VIJAYYENDRATEERTHA KARAABJOTTHAA SRI SUDHEENDRATEERTHA  VARAPUTRAKAHA
MANTRALAYA SRI RAGHVENDRATEERTHA GURUSARVABHOUMAHA

Rayara Vamsha Paramahamsaryara Peethhaadhipathees are the model of real Bhakti  Gnyana Paanditya  and Pratibha. Not only preached and advised though Swamijees, never aspired canvassing fame and name. Always participated in the socio facet activities of Manukuloddhaara of this universe without any discrimination. I AM NOT ONLY RESTRICTED TO PREACH RELIGION BUT RESERVED TO SERVE THE DEVOTEES AND LEAD ON THE RIGHT PATH. Practically followed VASUDHAIVA KUTUMBAKAM and worked honestly and sincerely. Became the eyes and the heart of world devotees. Mantralaya Rayaramatha Peethhaadhipathees are active from H.H. Sri Vibudhendrateertharu to our present Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathi H.H. Sri Subudhendrateertharu.

Sri Vaadeendrateertharu’s  Purvashrama younger brother Sri Venugoplacharyaru had three sons namely  Sri Purushottamacharya Sri Balaramacharya and Sri Laxminarayanacharya. All the three sons serially became the Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathee  Sri Vasudhendrateertharu 23rd  Peethhaadhiathi Sri Varadendrateertharu 24th  Peethhaadhipathi and Sri Bhuvanendrateertharu 26th Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathees of Rayaramatha proved their best to upheld the greatness and the Mahima of ourictoriousv Rayaramatha. Sri Vaadeendrateerthara Purvashrama son  Sri Jayaramacharyaru Sachchhastra Sadaacharee a great scholar and highly knowledgeable in all the shastras, Vedas and Dwaitha Siddhanta. Always interested keenly in participating the debates of Dwaita Adwaita. Always victorious the title of VAADEEBHAKANTHHEERAVA is quite appropriate to Sri Jayaramacharyaru. Once Sri Varadendrateertharu had been to Pune. Peshwe’s Rajaguru a great scholar Adwaita Shiromani by name Sri Ramashastri  Dwaita Sri Varadendrateertharu to the debate of Dwaita Adwaita! Somehow the Sankalpa and the Anugraha of Mantralaya Rayaru impelled  Sri Jayaramacharyaru to join the debate n Pune and participate! Quickly reached Pune and Sri Jayaramacharyaru joined the debate with Swamiji and started arguing. Sri Jayaramacharyaru became victorious in the debate, the happiness and the joy of H.H. Sri Varadendrateertharu knew no bonds! Sri  Ramashastri accepted his defeat and as per the condition offered his spacious palace like house to Sri Varadendrateertharu! Vradeshavithalru’s wordings are quite befitting.

RAMANA GRUHAVEERAMAGAAYETU AA RAMAGE VIRAAMVAAYETU
RAAMANEEYAKAPURADI MEREDU MUNI SHREEMANTHAGE SANUMATAVAYETU

Sri Ramashastri’s big house was presented to Sri MannmoolaRamadevaru in the beautiful city of Pune. With all pomp and show Rayaramatha Swamijee Sri Varadendrateertharu accepted the valuable gift. Swamijees, Scholars contributions of our Vidyamatha Rayaramatha are unforgettable.  The will and the wish of his purvashrama father  Sri Vaadeendrateertharuyaru  always reminding to Sri Jayaramachar. A complete man is one who accepts Sanyasa. So straight  went to Kumbhkonam at the holy sannidhaana of H.H. Sri Vijayeendrateertharu accepted Hamsaashrama as Sri Dheerendrateertharu. As soon as the news reached to H. H. Sri Bhuvanendrateertharu rushed to Kumbhakonam along with the Pooja box of Moolamahasamsthhaana idols and Sri MannmoolaRamadevaru. Sri Dheerendrateertharu was so Vairaagyapurnaru that after worshipping  Sri MoolaRamadevaru  and all the idols of Mantralaya Rayaramathacocluded the  Moolamahasamsthhaana Pooja,  returned the whole to Sri Bhuvanendraru and said that he is interested in Japa Tapa and Anushthhaana. So went to Hosaritti  on the bank of the sacred Varada river. Thus H. H. Sri Dheerendrateertharu the 25th Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathi is unique and special in all respects. Our Mantralaya Rayaramatha Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathees are all noble and dedicated to Sri Mannmoolaramadevau’s Seva! Cannot be excelled by others.

Parama Poojya Sri Subudhendrateertharu is really Mahimavantha Paramahamsa Peethhaadhipathi. The devotees of this universe like our Peethhaadhipathi very much. Simply worshipping as their Aaraadhya AdhiDevaru. Blesses with a divine smile for our welfare in all spheres of our  day to day undrtakings without any discrimination.
