Sringeri September 20, 2021

Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahasannidhanam and Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam completed their Chaturmasya Vrata and undertook Seemollanghanam (lit. crossing of border) early in the evening of Bhadrapada Purnima at around 4:45 PM. Crossing over from Narasimha Vanam to the northern banks of the Tungabhadra, the Jagadgurus had Darshan at the temple of Goddess Sharadamba and other temples in the Math premises. The Jagadgurus also had Darshan at the hillock temple of Lord Malahanikareshwara.

Earlier, Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahasannidhanam performed Sri Uma Maheshwara Vrata. Special puja was offered to Lord Sri Uma Maheshwara to the sonorous chanting of Vedic Mantras by the Pandits of the Sri Math and students of the Sadvidya Sanjeevini Samskrita Maha Pathashala. The Puja culminated with the Maha-Mangalaratrika. Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam was present throughout the puja.

 
  • 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
