Vijaya Yatra Website Update: The Power of the Mere Glance of Mahatmas

August 22, 2013

The Jagadguru’s Anugraha Bhashanam entitled “The Power of the Mere Glance of Mahatmas” delivered at Karur (Tamil Nadu) on June 6, 2012 has been added to the Vijaya Yatra website. http://vijayayatra.sringeri.net/karur-june-6-2012/

Karur is close to Nerur, the Samadhi place of the saint, Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra, who is held in the highest esteem by the Jagadgurus of Sringeri. The Jagadguru mentioned that the association with Sringeri Jagadgurus began when the 33rd Jagadguru of Sringeri, Sri Sri Sacchidananda Shivabhinava Narasimha Bharati Mahaswamiji came to Nerur, had Darshan of the Adhishtanam of Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra and composed hymns on Sri Brahmendra and gave a Anugraha Bhashanam.

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
