On the holy occasion of the 102nd Jayanti of the 35th Acharya of the Peetham, Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamiji, Sri Vidyatheertha Foundation is pleased to offer the e-book, ‘Divine Discourses’ for free download.

The e-book, ‘Divine Discourses’, contains the English translations of 11 benedictory discourses of the Jagadguru delivered extempore in the period 1986-1989. Nine of these sacred discourses were in Kannada and two in Tamil. A special feature of this book is the inclusion of the six holy speeches delivered by His Holiness that provide the most authoritative account of His Guru’s (Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamiji) life and achievements.

They also give a thorough account of the nature and role of a Sadguru, a knower of the Truth; all that a spiritual aspirant needs to know about a Sadguru is contained in the book. Download the book at svfonline.net/divinediscourses/.

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
