Aradhana of Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamiji

October 9, 2009

The 55th Aradhana of the renowned Jivanmukta Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamiji was reverentially observed on the Mahalaya Amavasya day which fell on the 18th of September this year. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji offered special Aradhana Puja at the Adhishthanam of His Paramaguru, who lead a life of intense Tapas culminating in Jivanmukti, and also authored an invaluble commentary on Sri Adi Shankaracharya’s famous Prakarana Grantha, The Vivekachoodmani.

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
