Vijaya Yatra Website: Karur

 

July 17, 2012

The events at Karur and nearby Nerur (the Samadhi place of Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra) has been added to the Vijay Yatra website. The importance and significance of this visit is crystallized in the following quote from the Anugraha Bhashanam of the Jagadguru.

“Sri Sadasiva Brahmendra is a perfect example of a Mahayogi and a Maha Vedantin. He led his life in such a way that it was astonishing that such an ideal could be seen even in this Kali Yuga. Traditionally, the Acharyas of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham offer prostrations only at the Adhishtanams (Samadhi Shrines) of their Gurus. They do not offer prostrations at other Adhishtanams. However, our Parameshti Guru, Jagadguru Sri Sri Sacchidananda Shivabhinava Narasimha Bharati Mahaswamiji created an exception to this rule at the Adhishtanam of Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra.”

  • Just as in this body, the embodied one passes through boyhood, youth, and old age, so does one pass into another body. With reference to this (birth, aging and death), the wise man is not disturbed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • An object continues to be dear as long as one derives pleasure from it and it is detested for the duration that it causes pain. The same object cannot be always liked or disliked. Sometimes, that which is not dear may become dear. Moreover, that which was loveable can turn unpleasant. The Atma, towards which affection never wanes, is always the most beloved. Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Shatashloki
  • Blessings are the monopoly of God and we must all pray for his gracious blessings. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is pitiful that when many of us are asked, “who are you?”, The first thought that arises is “I am a Keralite”, or “I am a Punjabi”, etc. The thought that should immediately stem is “I am an Indian”. If people first feel that they are Indians and only then think of divisions, the nation will have great prosperity and the divisive forces will not be operative as they are today. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Instead of using the tongue for speaking futile issues, use it to chant the names of God. God shall then guide you along the right and beneficial path. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
