Guest guest Posted September 17, 1996 Report Share Posted September 17, 1996 Sri Ranganatha Shatogopa Yateendra Drishtam Lakshmi Nrisimha Shatajit Karunaika Patram Sri Ranga vira Raghurat Satagopa Hridyam Vedanta Desika Yatindram Aham Prapadye Shrimate Sreevan Satagopa Sri Vedanta Desika Yateendra maha desikaya namaha. I was really touched by the posts by Dileepan and Satagopan. I was sort of pressurised at work and could not celibrate - " Acharyar Tirunakshatram" the usual way - like Venkat and others in New York used to do. It is said in the sastras that "Mantram yatnena Gopayet... Gurum Prakashayet Dhimaan". "The mantras should be protected with care so that people with less interest do not get initiated and misuse or insult or abuse them. However, One should widely publish one's allegiance to an Acharya". I would like to use this email network to express my deep indebtedness to my Acharya : 44th Jeer of Ahobila Mutt. All I can say is that words, emotions or any form of expressions fail completely in expressing my indebtedness to him; like how vedas say : yato vaacho nivartante, aprapya manasa saha - (summary: words & thoughts return back failing to explain Brahman )- taittiriya upanisad". This is no mere eulogy but a heartfelt feeling. If vedas themseleves, which are the only guiding light to human beings to reach beyond this mundane existence, give up and fail to describe that "God"; Such a God was made reachable through prapatti by our acharya; That too to a consistently sinning person like me. This indebtedness is unbearable.
