The 26th anniversary of the Pattabhisheka day (marking the day of the ascendance to the Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham at Sringeri) of Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji was celebrated on November 1st 2015. On this auspicious day, a Sahasra Narikela Homa was performed and Poornahuti took place in the Divine Presence of Sri Mahasannidhanam and Sri Sannidhanam (Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam). Earlier, the Jagadgurus had Darshan at all the temples in the premises of the Math. In the evening, a function was held in the presence of the Ubhaya Jagadgurus to recognize the efforts of the Sevaks who are serving the Math. Sri V R Gowrishankar, CEO & Administrator of the Peetham, read out the report of the Navaratri celebrations and mentioned that this year’s Navaratri was historic in that the Ubhaya Jagadgurus graced the Durbar, the first after the Shishya Sweekara in January 2015. The Ubhaya Jagadgurus then blessed all the staff of the Peetham and the assembled devotees.

On 8th November, Sannyasa Sweekara day of Sri Mahasannidhanam was observed. The Ubhaya Jagadgurus had Darshan at all the temples in the Math.

 
  • 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
