Sri Mahasannidhanam blesses Archaka of Rameswaram with Deeksha

Sringeri July 1, 2021

It is well known that the Jyotirlinga Kshetram of Rameswaram is the Kshetram for the Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham, as ordained by Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankaracharya in the Mathamnaya. The religious activities of Sri Ramanatha Swamy temple at Rameswaram are guided by the Jagadguru of Sringeri.

As per centuries old tradition established by Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankaracharya, Maharashtra Brahmins offer regular worship to Sri Ramanatha Swamy and Goddess Parvata Vardhini in Rameswaram. It is noteworthy that these Archakas of the Rameswaram temple first receive Deeksha from the Sringeri Jagadguru, and only then enter the sanctum sanctorum of Sri Ramanatha Swamy and Goddess Parvata Vardhini to perform Puja.

On July 1, 2021, Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahasannidhanam blessed the Archaka, Sri Sharavanan Ranade of Rameswaram, with the Deeksha and a Srimukha. In the forenoon, the preparatory rituals of the elaborate Deeksha ceremony took place in the precincts of the Adhishthanams in Narasimha Vanam, Sringeri.

 
  • The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
  • If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
