Description

Through conscious and unconscious misdeeds men slip down into the morass of world problems.  At these times, there is always a descent of seers upon the earth who boldly declare the glorious truth of the omnipesent Godhood in infinite majesty.  One such great luminary of our time is His Holiness Jagadguru Schankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji, who adorns the throne of transedental wisdom is the 36th Pontiff of Dakshinamnya Sri Sharada Peetham, Sringeri for the past 17 years.

His Holiness is known for His great spiritual eminence and is widely considered as one of the greatest traditional scholars of all time.  Inspite of thongs of devotees around Him, His Holiness is equally well known for living all alone in meditation and revelling in Himself in a transcedental state.  As a Jnani par excellence, He can come down to the level of the common mand and lucidly explain the intricacies of the Shastras and essentials of Vedanta.  His Anugraha Bhashanas crystalise the laws of our Sanatana Dharma and help us understand in a very simple and direct way as to why leading a dharmic life is our only key to permanent happiness.

For the benefit of astikas we have begun a video series of selected Anugraha Bhashanam of His Holiness.  This video is the first of this series.

Sample

 
  • 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
