Parayana on Guru Poornima

July 15, 2016

Bhagavan Sri Vedavyasa

With the blessings and guidance of Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahasannidhanam and Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam, a program has been conceived to conduct Parayana on the occasion of the very auspicious Guru Poornima to obtain the compassionate grace of the Acharyas. A small compendium published by the Peetham, contains shlokas for Parayana, and the Ashtottara Shatanamavalis. The compendium is titled Guru-Saparyaa, meaning worship of the Guru and is available online.

The Parayana event will take place in Sringeri on Guru Poornima at 6:30 PM at Pravachana Mandiram. The Parayana event is also being organized by devotee groups in their respective areas. Every follower of Sanatana Dharma may wholeheartedly perform this Parayana on the sacred day of Guru Poornima and obtain the blessings of the Guru.

More Details On Guru Poornima Parayana

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
Today God is altogether ignored and this is the cause of all our suffering and misery. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
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
