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

The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb.

It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
