Jagadguru graces Alaligudda in Nemmar


 


Jagadguru Mahaswamiji Performing Kalashabhabhisheka of Vinayaka Devasthana at ALaligudda in Nemmar

On 19th May 2014 morning, the Jagadguru arrived at Sri Lakshmi Vinayaka Temple at Alaligudda. The Jagadguru performed elaborate Puja, Kalashabhisheka and PunaH Pratishtha of Lord Lakshmi Vinayaka. The devotees of that place performed Padapuja and in the Guruvandanam Sabha held after the Kumbhabhisheka, the president and members of the committee submitted an Abhinandana Patra. Then the Jagadguru blessed the assembled devotees with an Anugraha Bhashanam. In that, the Jagadguru mentioned that Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpadacharya has blessed mankind with numerous Devata Stotras. In the first one on Lord Ganapati, Sri Shankara Bhagavatpadacharya uses an adjective “समस्तलोकशङ्करम्” to Lord Ganapati. That means one who bestows auspiciousness on all. One need not have even a pinch of doubt in the writings of Jagadguru Sri Shankara Bhagavatpadacharya. So let all worship the Lord Ganapati with steadfast devotion and faith to attain Shreyas.

 
  • 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

  • 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
