Tapasvi Kuteera at Sringeri inaugurated

February 11, 2010

Over the centuries, it has been the practice of many Mathadhipatis and Dandi Sannyasis to come to Sringeri for Darshan of Goddess Sharada and the Sringeri Jagadguru and seek guidance from the Jagadguru on various spiritual and religious matters.

As per the directions of Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji, a new Tapasvi Kuteera has been constructed for the comfortable stay of visiting Mathadhipatis and Sannyasis in a serene setting on the banks of the Tunga inside Narasimha Vanam at Sringeri. The Mahaswamiji inaugurated the Tapasvi Kuteera on 11th February 2010 and performed a special Chandramoulishwara Puja. CEO & Administrator, Sri V R Gowrishankar and Dr. Yegnasubramanian, Chairman, Sringeri Vidya Bharati Foundation, USA were present on the occasion.

For the protection of the righteous ones (committed to dharma), for the destruction of the unrighteous ones (follow adharma), and for the establishment of dharma I take birth in every age. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
O devotee, (with the mind) fixed upon the lotus feet of the Guru! May you soon be free from Samsara. Through the control of the senses and the mind, you shall behold the Lord indwelling in your heart! Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Mohamudgara
Have firm faith in God, his words and his servants. Have staunch belief in your religion and in dharma. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
An ideal disciple will indeed act as per the Guru’s instructions and not give place to thoughts as “Is it possible for me to do as he says? Shall I try something else?” If we follow our Guru’s instructions, it does not mean that we are unintelligent. It only implies that we have surrendered for our own good to a power superior to us. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
If we poke our nose into matters that do not concern us, it is we who lose our precious time. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
