MadhvarAyara karune padeyadava dhareyolage iddarenu illaddidarenu.....Madhwa siddhAntada paddathi bidabyAdi, bittu kedabyAdi......In the seva of Shri Hari,Vayu,Gurugalu,For SVBM/VMS,Sathya©: (408)887-0473*************************************************************************Excerpts from the posting by Sri G.R.Raghunatha Rao"<grrrao on dvaita list**************************************************************************************************************************************************SHREE MADHWA NAVAMI.The day on which Sri Madawacharya entered BadariAt Udipi at Shree Ananateshwara temple, Sri

Acharyawas performing "Upadesha" to learned disciples on "IthareyaUpanishad". Rudraadhi Devathas, who heard his upadesha and pleased,withecstasy poured "Parijaatha" flowers on him and Acharya became"Adrushya". A board could be seen even now indicating the place ofAdrushya with his idol at the top of the place at Shree Ananteshwar temple.Sumadhwa Vijaya ManagaLa., Abhisheka, Rathotstava areperformed at various places.- Brahmins are fed- One should listen fromPundits the History of Shree SarvaJnachar.Dhyaana Sloka:Abramam Bhangarahitham Aajadam Vimalam Sadaa|Aananada Theertha Mathulam Bhaje tapatrayaaapahaM||Sumadhwa Vijaya Managala.It is said that Sri Hari out of his own will createdthis world. But without any benefit to Him whatsoever. But he sustainsit also. Why?. This question is often asked.The purpose of creation is to bring out and establishthe very hidden

individuality of Jivas. Although every Jiva isendowed with "swaroopa anananda" to taste, it is to be born in this world,go through the mill ofmiseries, do saadhana, and perform attendant duties.Thus to make every Jiva, according to its own deservedness, express itsindividuality is the very purpose of this crweation. This idea is expressedby sri madhwacharya in Tatparya NiRNaya as "Thanumruthu SwaBhaavasamBhoothaye" The all compassionate Lord makes every Jiva enjoy its naturalbliss through creation. Only to cater to this, God creates andsustains.(Courtesy-Editor, Sri Madhwacharya seva Sangha,, KKnagar Chennai-78,News letter Feb 2002.)**************************************************************************************************************************************************
