On 1st November 2007, the Jagadguru performed the Pratishta Kumbhabhisheka of Goddess Sharada, and Sri Adi Shankara at the Nasik Sringeri Shankara Math.

It may be noted that while the Adi Shankara icon has been in existence for long, the Nasik Math did not have a shrine for Goddess Sharada, the presiding deity of the Peetham. The decision to renovate the Math and consecrate Goddess Sharada was a boon for all devotees of the holy town and saw fructification at the Divine hands of the Jagadguru on this auspicious day.

Sri Sri Sannidhanam also worshiped at the Adhistanams of the 28th and 29th Jagadgurus of the Peetham – Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Sacchidanda Bharati Mahaswamigal and Jagadguru Sri Nrisimha Bharati Mahaswamigal. The Jagadguru also graced a number of Dharmic functions in Nasik.

  • The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
  • If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
