Sri Raghavendra - The Path to the ultimate

Image
  👉 The Path to the Ultimate: From Desires to Moksha Why disturb Prabhu Sri Ramachandra for fleeting materialistic desires? Seek Him for the ultimate gift—Moksha—the liberation that only He can bestow. If it is worldly support you seek, the great RaamaBhakta Hanuman is more than capable. There is nothing beyond His reach for His devotees. Yet, even then, why ask Him for the temporary? Ask Hanuman Ji for the greatest treasure: Raama Bhakti, the bridge to salvation. For us, Mantralaya Guru Saarvabhouma Sri Raghavendra Swamy is our refuge. As the Kamadhenu and Kalpavriksha of this age, He fulfills every earnest prayer. As the saying goes: "Apekshita pradata anyo raghavendra na vidyate" (There is no giver of desired boons like Raghavendra.) न विष्णु सदृशो देवो न गुरुर्वायुना समः | कोवा सर्वेश्टदाता हि राघवेन्द्रान्न महीतले || ನ ವಿಷ್ಣು ಸದೃಶೋ ದೇವೋ ನ ಗುರುರ್ವಾಯುನಾ ಸಮಃ | ಕೋವಾ ಸರ್ವೇಶ್ಟದಾತಾ ಹಿ ರಾಘವೇನ್ದ್ರಾನ್ನ ಮಹೀತಲೇ || న విష్ణు సదృశో దేవో న గురుర్వాయునా సమః | కోవా సర్వేశ్టదాతా హి రాఘవేన...

Raksha Bandhan (RAAKHI) - Concept & Significance

Image
What is RaAkhi? Rakhi is a popular festival celebrated across the country especially in North India, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Maharashtra. Like Holi and Diwali, Rakhi is also celebrated as a national festival. It is celebrated on the full moon day (Sravana Poornima) of the lunar Month Sravana which also coincide with Upakarma and Hayagreeva Jayanthi. This festival is also called as Rakhi Poornima, Nariyal Poornima, Kajari Poornima, and Sravana Poornima according to the celebrations held in different states. On the occasion of this festival generally we observe sisters tie a sacred thread called Rakhi to the wrist of their brothers, in turn brothers give gifts to their sisters and exchange sweets to mark the occasion. While etymology of the word Rakhi could not be traced, the word Raka in Sanskrit is referred to as a woman, full moon day, sentiment, affection etc. Perhaps, women tying the sacred thread (Rakhi) on the full Moon-day on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan out of sentimental affe...
