Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham, Sringeri

Kadur


The thick relationship beetween the Ithihasa of Kadur and the World Famous Sri Sringeri Shankara Math is traced back to centuries of years. It had been the profound prayer of the populace of Kadur to establish a branch of Sri Sharada Peetah. This fervent wish and the dreams turned into reality on the 28th November 2001. The branch had been inaugurated on the Shubha muhurtha of karthika Shukla Thrayodhasi (in Asvini Nakshtra)

Temple

There are three Shrines. In conformity with the rules laid down in Shastras the Prathishtapana was consecreated by H.H.Jagadguru Sri Sri Bhathi Theertha Swamigal amidst a sea of devotees .

Deities

Sanskrita Shiromanies of ester years recall with deep reverence of the memorable days when the Jagadguru Sri Sri Chandrasekhara Bharathi Swamigal the 34th pontiff of Sri Sharada Mutt had practised Shastra Adhyayana under the guidance of Shri K. Shankara Sastri before he was crowned as Matathipathi.  There was also a Samskrita Vidya peetah which functioned at Narayanapura Agrahara which was very near to the Sri Math permises.

In the 19th century, due to non availaibility of motorable road, vehicles for travel and postal arrangements, people had to trek by foot if they want to visit Sringeri.

  • Just as in this body, the embodied one passes through boyhood, youth, and old age, so does one pass into another body. With reference to this (birth, aging and death), the wise man is not disturbed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • An object continues to be dear as long as one derives pleasure from it and it is detested for the duration that it causes pain. The same object cannot be always liked or disliked. Sometimes, that which is not dear may become dear. Moreover, that which was loveable can turn unpleasant. The Atma, towards which affection never wanes, is always the most beloved. Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Shatashloki
  • Blessings are the monopoly of God and we must all pray for his gracious blessings. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is pitiful that when many of us are asked, “who are you?”, The first thought that arises is “I am a Keralite”, or “I am a Punjabi”, etc. The thought that should immediately stem is “I am an Indian”. If people first feel that they are Indians and only then think of divisions, the nation will have great prosperity and the divisive forces will not be operative as they are today. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Instead of using the tongue for speaking futile issues, use it to chant the names of God. God shall then guide you along the right and beneficial path. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
