Kumbhabhisheka at Prachina Shankara Math

 

April 30, 2007

The Prachina Sringeri Shankara Math is the oldest branch of the Peetham in Bangalore, located at Kashi Vishweshwara temple Street, Sultanpet. The 32nd Jagadguru Sri Nrisimha Bharati Mahaswamigal had visited the Math in 1874. Now, a Vimana Gopuram over the Sanctum Sanctorum and a welcome arch have been built with the Jagadguru’s Blessings. On 29th April 2007, the Jagadguru went to the Math and performed the Puja to Mahaganapati, Lord Chandramoulishwara and Goddess Bhavani followed by the Kumbhabhisheka.

 
  • Weapons do not cut This (Atma); nor does fire does burn It. Water does not wet (nor drown) nor does wind dry It. This (Atma) cannot be slain, nor burnt, nor wetted, nor dried up. It is changeless, all-pervading, stable, immovable and eternal. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • Do not be proud of wealth, people (relations and friends), and youth. All these are snatched by Time in the blink of an eye. Giving up this illusory world, know and attain the Supreme. Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Mohamudgara
  • Today God is altogether ignored and this is the cause of all our suffering and misery. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • By God’s grace, we have obtained a human birth, the power of discrimination and someone to teach us about the ultimate, truth. If we still remain lazy, we will be wasting a marvelous opportunity. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • No man is omniscient. Hence man should not have the ego that he knows all. It is ego that leads man astray and drives him to commit sins. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
