The Jagadgurus will commence the Chaturmasya Vrata with Vyasa Puja and Sankalpa on Sunday, the 5^th of July 2020.

With the Blessings and guidance of the Jagadgurus, the Guru Saparya program of the Sharvari Samvatsara will commence on the auspicious Guru Poornima Day – July 05^th 2020. The program will begin on July 5^th 2020 evening at 5 pm and will be telecast live on Sri Sankara TV to enable all the devotees to actively participate in this.

Because of the prevailing pandemic situation, it is still unfavorable to undertake yatra to Sringeri.

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
