Sringeri June 5, 2020

Following is the Anugraha Sandesha in Kannada delivered by Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam on the occasion of completion of over one crore japa of Durga Parameshwari Stotram by devotees around the world.

At the onset of the global pandemic termed “Covid-19”, the Jagadguru Shankaracharya of Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham, Sri Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji, under Divine inspiration, directed one and all Sanatana Dharma Anuyâyîs to recite the Durga Parameshwari Stotram, seeking succour at the feet of the Divine Mother, and as a prayer to the Divine Mother to rid the world of the pandemic. Obeying the words of the Guru, many devotees religiously practiced the ritual parayana of this divine stotra and within a few weeks, collectively completed over a crore japa of the stotra.

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
