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.

  • 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
