Sringeri Taluk Brahmana Sabha


 

Sringeri March 5, 2017

Sri Sannidhanam graced an event organised by the Sringeri Taluk Brahmana Sabha on March 5, 2017 at the Vidya Bharati Kalyana Mandapam of the Sabha. Poornahuti of the  Navachandi Homa conducted on the occasion took place in the divine presence of Sri Sannidhanam. In the public function held on the occasion, the Brahmana Sabha members offered their Pranams to the Sringeri Jagadgurus and thanked the Math for assistance in various activities of the Sabha including the construction of the Kalyana Mandapam. The members of the Sabha honoured the CEO of the Sringeri Math, Dr. VR Gowrishankar.

In His Anugraha Bhashanam, Sri Sannidhanam spoke on the importance of retaining the noble qualities and good conduct of being a Brahmana. Sri Sannidhanam also underlined the importance of leading a disciplined life. He further added that one must cultivate the practice of eating at the respective times of the day only after having completed the performance of the Sandhyavandana of that time period (Pratah-Sandhya or Maadhyahnika or Saayam-Sandhya). Sri Sannidhanam also underscored the importance of the study of the Vedas and said that a student who has studied the Vedas will have the ability to grasp any subject in any field.

 
  • 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
