On 29th November morning, the Jagadguru graced Karki Daivajna Math, where Sri Sacchidananda Jnaneshwara Bharati Swamiji gave a respectful welcome and performed Padapuja. The Swamiji then spoke expressing his gratitude to the Jagadguru and prayed for the Jagadguru’s blessings for all devotees assembled there and for the developmental activities in the Math. The Jagadguru blessed the assembled devotees with an Anugraha Bhashanam and elaborated on the greatness of Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada and His works. The Jagadguru added that if we follow even a single Upadesha given by Bhagavatpada, we will be benefitted. The Jagadguru then explained the shloka “अविनयमपनय विष्णो” from Vishnu Shatpadi Stotram.

The Guruvashtaka Stotram by Bhagavatpada was recited. Then Sri Vamanashrama Swamiji delivered a speech in Konkani welcoming the Jagadguru and expressed that similar to God taking the Avatara of Sri Rama, Sri Krishna and Adi Shankaracharya, God has taken the form of the Sringeri Jagadguru and has come to the Math to bless all.
