  Sri VijayaDasaru ( Ondu chintane) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HLVYN-MEI_OhG3u88jOnVjbCDTEmjT0-/view?usp=sharing Sri Vijaya Dasaru is respected and adored as one of the greatest Haridasas this land has seen. He is credited with the revival of the Haridasa movement in the eighteenth century. He not only composed thousands of devaranamas himself, but also personally sought and trained several disciples to ensure that the movement endured for a long time. He was a junior contemporary of Sri Vadeendra Teertha and visited Mantralaya several times. He is supposed to have seen and conversed with Rayaru personally several times.  Some of the devaranamas composed by him reveal insights that ordinary people would never get. In one song (“noDide gurugaLa noDide ..”), he talks of seeing Lord Narasimha, Rama, Vedavyasa and Krishna on the four sides of the Vrindavana, all the Gurus from Acharya Madhva down to his own guru present within the Vrindavana, and Lord Lakshminarayana in the ...

RAGHAVENRA is a unique & matchless heritage...

Had Prahlada Raayaru been selfish and returned back to Vaikunta when he was called by none other Bhagavantha in the form of Lord Narasimha what would have happened?   पूज्याय राघवेंद्राय सत्यधर्मरताय च। भजतां कल्पवृक्षाय नमतां कामधेनवे॥ But, Prahlada Raayaru didn't do that. He politely refused and instead preferred to stay back on earth propagating the divine culture and bhakti of ParamaAtma SriManNarayana. Sri Prahlada Rayaru is Bhakti-Vibhootiroopa of Bhagavanta; Sri Krishna says in Bhagawadgita that He is Prahlada among the devoted; He is one of the greatest devotees of Vishnu; Parama Bhaagavatottama; He (Shankukarna) is Vishnu Parivaara Devata having visesha Vaayu aavesha. Sri Guru Raayaru is an incarnation of Bhakta Prahlada (Prahlada Raayaru) whose Apratima Vishnu Bhakti has been mentioned by Sri Madhvacharya in his scripts; ShankukarNaakhyadevastu  bramhashapaachcha bhootale | Prahlaad  iti vikhyaato bhoobhaar kshapaNE ratah | sa eva  R...

Moola Brundavana of Sri Thrivikrama Panditacharya & Sri Narayana Panditacharya (Kasargod)

Image
If Sri ThrivikramaPanditacharya [perhaps, only one who could see the three incarnations of Lord Vayu (Hanuma-Bheema-Madhva)] wrote SarvaSiddhipradha Sri VaayuStuti , His son Sri NarayanaPanditacharya wrote Sri MadhvaVijaya extolling the glory & accomplishments of Sri MadhvacharyaRu A glorious and commendable service by Father & Son to the devout society in general and Madhva fraternity in particular, who have shown saadhana maarga for saadhakas, the two are nitya parayana Granthas for Mumukshu including Madhva Yatis. Vayustuti came out spontaneously/extempore from Sri ThrivikramaPanditacharya astounded when he saw Sri Madhvacharya in three forms as, Hanuma worshipping SriRama ; Bheemasena worshipping SriKrishna and Madhvacharya worshipping SriVedavyasaru , (Hanuma-Bheema-Madhva); As VayuStuti only extols Lord Vayu (Hanuma-Bheema-Madhva); Sri MadhvacharyaRu added two slokas (composed by HIm) called NakhaStuti glorifying the supreme God HariSarvottama Vishnu i...
