The Naga Sadhus who had been invited to take part in the rituals conducted in Banavara, Arasikere taluk to bring rain to the land had expressed to the organisers in Banavara about their intense desire to have Darshan of the Jagadguru Shankaracharya of the Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham, Sringeri.

Members of the Sadguru Dattatreya Vishwas Mandali in Banavara (one amongst the organisers hosting the Naga Sadhus) accompanied the Naga Sadhus to Sringeri and briefed the Jagadguru that the rituals as part of the weeklong meet of the Naga Sadhus were over and heavy rains had occurred for several hours in Banavara and adjacent areas (a region which had not witnessed good rain for one-and -a-half decades).

Jagadguru Mahaswamiji blessed the Naga Sadhus with an Anugraha Bhashanam, Phala and Tirtha Prasadam. In the Anugraha Bhashanam, the Jagadguru said “Bhagavatpada Adi Shankaracharya incarnated to revive Sanatana Dharma. Sanatana Dharma thrives today because of Sri Adi Shankaracharya. So it is imperative for us to have total devotion and faith on Sri Shankaracharya. Sri Shankaracharya established four Peethams in the four directions of Bharata for the propagation of Sanatana Dharma. Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham was established by Sri Shankaracharya in the south with the first Peethadhipati as Sri Sureshwaracharya. Since then the propagation of Sanatana Dharma has been continuing without any break. You all have
dedicated yourself for the same cause of propagation of Sanatana Dharma by teaching the righteous path to the masses and making them aware of the greatness of Sri Shankaracharya. So We are delighted to see you, who have come all the way here with a firm determination that this is your Gurupeetham and you need to have Darshan of the Jagadguru. I am very pleased with you all and convey my wholehearted blessings to you. May you all continue the propagation of Dharma and let the Grace of Bhagavan Shankaracharya ji and Bhagavati Sharadamba be on you all.”
