Near Hyderabad. E.mail : [email protected] Visit us: www.sriramanujasahasrabdi.org During the period when the Sacred Mantra was considered indispensible to one and all – Bhagavad Ramanuja, said to His Guru - “Gurudev! If my act of disclosing the sacred Mantra redeems the sins and sufferings of the entire world, and I, as a result, deemed to rot in the worst of hells, am willing”. Startled Guru of Ramanujacharya embraced him at once proclaiming “em-perum- ana:re:”, which means “You have surpassed us” by carrying such a magnanimous selfless attitude towards welfare of the world. The scholars of that day thus declared Ramanuja as Emberuma:na:r. “Why not humans, when every creature is the child of God, despite their caste, creed, colour race or gender? Every man has the right to receive the Blessings of God. Declaring thus, for the first time in human history, Ramanujacharya escorted Harijans, the down trodden, into the temple, at Melkote, Karnataka. Exemplifying himself, Sri Ramanujacharya instructed the lineage of Acharyas not to discriminate or deny any sincere truth seeker from the mantra. The Decree of Lord Venkateswara - The Lord of Seven Hills Himself having accepted Ramanujacharya as His Guru, instructed the then King Ya:dava Ra:ja, “Let the divine commandent of Acharya Ramanuja, be sung in all corners of the world for all times to come” by His own words, “Ra:ma:nuja:rya Divya:jna: Vardhatha:m Abhivardhatha:m”. Gurum Praka:saye:th Dhi:ma:n! ‘A wise should glorify his Guru’, is the fiat from Vedic Scriptures. The Lord Himself followed this celebrated Vedic decree by glorifying His Guru Acharya Ramanuja. This speaks volumes about Sri Ramanujacharya Swamy. Thus it becomes the minimum duty of every devotee to celebrate the millennium year of Ramanujacharya Swamy’s avathara, fast approaching during 2016-17. Shall we do the best as a token of our gratitude? If yes... Then, Come on! Here is a chance for us……... The approximate cost of this unique project is Rs.400 crores.

  • Temple-Mystery-India.Pdf
    Newsletter Archives www.dollsofindia.com Five Hindu Temples Shrouded in Mystery Copyright © 2017, DollsofIndia India is a land of myriad temples and other sacred places of worship. According to experts, Hindu temples did not exist before or during the Vedic period (1500-500 BC). The concept of idol worship came into existence only after this era - this in turn gave rise to the construction of shrines and temples of all shapes and sizes. Most of the major Hindu temples are truly amazing, jaw-dropping creations, which inspire a sense of awe and wonder in us. Yet others give rise to a totally different sensation in us - that of being in a mystical; sort of magical and surreal location. In this post, we bring you a feature on five major Hindu temples, which seem unusually numinous and are shrouded in mystery and mysticism. Konark Sun Temple The Konark Sun Temple, also referred to as Konarak Sun Temple and Surya Deula, was built in 13th century CE. Located about 35 kilometers northeast of Puri, it lies along the coastline of Odisha. This temple is attributed to King Narasimhadeva of the Eastern Ganga Dynasty (around 1250 CE). Dedicated to Surya (the Sun God), this structure is presently a 100-foot high chariot with huge wheels and horses; all carved from stone. Today, much of the temple is in ruins. A large shikhara, which rose high above the present mandapa, has unfortunately fallen off. The surviving structure is famed for its intricate sculpture, artwork and themes including the erotic Kama and Mithuna scenes. Built in the typical Oriyan style of temple architecture, it stood over 200 feet high before the start of its ruin.

  • Chola Temples of Tamil Nadu
    Chola Temples Of Tamil Nadu- UPSC Arts & Culture Notes Recently, ‘Kumbhabishekam’ ceremony was held at the ‘Brihadeeswara temple’ in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu after 23 years. Kumbhabhishekham is a part of the consecration ceremony of Hindu temples. ‘Kumbha’ means the Head and denotes the Shikhara* or Crown of the Temple and abhishekam is ritual bathing. Relevance of the Topic This topic was in the news and hence, is important for the UPSC exam. Read our Issues in News segment for insights into topics that make headlines and are important for the IAS exam. *In Dravida style temples the spire/deul or tower which surmounts the sanctum sanctorum (Garbhagriha) is pyramidal in shape and together are known as the ‘Vimana’.The top end of the vimana is called ‘Shikhara’, whereas in Nagara style temples the spire on top of the garbhagriha is itself called the ‘Shikhara’. Introduction The Cholas of the Tanjore line, also known as the Imperial Cholas ruled over most of South India for about four centuries ie, 875 -1175 AD. The political and ceremonial centre of the Cholas was Thanjavur (Tanjai). The Cholas linked themselves to the Solar dynasty. The Cholas conquered parts of the Gujarat, Malwa, Deccan and Indonesia, Lakshadweep, Maldives and Sri Lanka in entirety. Bay of Bengal came to be known as the ‘Chola Lake’ as they dominated the area with their powerful navy. The entire coast from Kanyakumari to Bengal came to be captioned ‘Cholamandalam’. Coramandal is the anglicised name of Cholamandalam. It is also noteworthy that they dominated the other two seas. Owing to the Chola rule, during this period, there was remarkable political stability in South India.

    Issue 7 A Quarterly Student Journal Samvit Knowledge beyond time ...... visit us @ www.amrita.edu/samvit February 2014 Samskriti, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri Campus Editorial In today’s modern world, we are caught up by the illusion that the external world is the only source of happiness contrary to the fact that real happiness or bliss lies within ourselves. So how are we as Indians and citizens of the modern world going to establish this truth? This is when we should go back and draw upon the treasure trove of wisdom we have inherited from our ancestors and see how they lived, our ancestors were not mere people “The curse upon our society is ignorance about our traditions and the basic spiritual they were rishis, kings, people with principles. This needs to change. Amma has visited so many countries around the world wisdom who had accomplished and personally met so many people there. All of them, including the indigenous people and truly laid down and practiced of Australia, Africa and America, take pride in their heritage and traditions. But here a systematic way of life. But most in India, many among us neither have understanding nor pride. In fact some of us even importantly they taught us to ridicule our culture. Only if we first lay a strong foundation can we hope to erect a tall love and it can be done practicing building. Similarly only if we have knowledge and pride in our forefathers and heritage, non attachment and nonviolence. can we create a radiant present and future”. Education was an intertwined essence of both worldly and spiritual knowledge, which resulted in good leaders and quality citizens.
