Nayaka Samaj has Guru Darshan

May 9, 2016

On May 9 2016, many hundreds of members of the Gangadagara Nayaka Samaj spread over Karnataka and Maharashtra had Darshan of Goddess Sharadamba and the Jagadgurus at Sringeri. The ancestors of the members of the community had always revered the Sringeri Jagadgurus. However, it was the first time that members of the community were coming along as a group to offer their respects at Sringeri. Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam graced the devotees with an Anugraha Bhashanam signifying the importance of the Guru and later blessed them with Phala Mantrakshatas.

For the protection of the righteous ones (committed to dharma), for the destruction of the unrighteous ones (follow adharma), and for the establishment of dharma I take birth in every age. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
O devotee, (with the mind) fixed upon the lotus feet of the Guru! May you soon be free from Samsara. Through the control of the senses and the mind, you shall behold the Lord indwelling in your heart! Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Mohamudgara
Have firm faith in God, his words and his servants. Have staunch belief in your religion and in dharma. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
An ideal disciple will indeed act as per the Guru’s instructions and not give place to thoughts as “Is it possible for me to do as he says? Shall I try something else?” If we follow our Guru’s instructions, it does not mean that we are unintelligent. It only implies that we have surrendered for our own good to a power superior to us. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
If we poke our nose into matters that do not concern us, it is we who lose our precious time. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
