These Karyakramas are being held under the gracious presidentship of Pujya Sri Pt. Vidyasimhacharya Mahuli , the present Kulapati of Satyadhyana Vidyapeetha, Mumbai. He provides free food, lodging to over 200 students and teaches them everyday. He has shaped the personality and character of hundreds of Pundits. He has been the Preraka behind every good deed, the source of knowledge and inspiration of all religious acts. He graces the ocassion with his special discourse. Satkarmas performed in Adhika Masa bring infinite punya, benefits and pleases Masa Niyamaka Lord Sri Purushottama immensely. Hence it has been proposed to perform Pravachana, Parayana, Homa, Laksha Deepotsava, Laksha Archana, Bhajana, Brahmana Pooja etc. for the welfare of one and all. Sampoorna 'Srimad Bhagavata' Pravachana: A Special Discourse is being organised for 3 Days in which several scholars cover entire 'Srimad Bhagavata'. Pravachanas on several 'Dasara Kritis', to highlight their meaning, are also being held. 33 'Bruhati Sahasra Homa's: The Bruhati Sahasra Mantras -the 1000 Mantras composed in 'Bruhati' Chandas ( a metre comprising 36 syllables)- are very dear to Lord Sri Hari. The 72,000 forms of the Lord extolled in these Mantras are also present in our body (36,000 masculine forms of the Lord in the right side 'Nadi's and 36,000 feminine forms of the Lord in the left side 'Nadi's) and they control the days and nights of our 100 years of living. Performing Homa by chanting these Bruhati Sahasra Mantras brings great punya. Thus in the Adhika Masa, 33 "Bruhati Sahasra Homas" are being performed. 33 'Pavamana Homa's: Lord Sri Hari and Sri Vayudeva are referred to as "Pavamana" - because they remove our sins, eliminate our worldly distresses, provide us punya as well as gnana, and take us to Moksha. Pavamana sukta itself is the Neerajana - the Mangala Aarathi to Lord Sri Hari. Performing Homa by chanting this Pavamana Sukta is even more beneficial: it removes all sins accumulated in one year and makes one to be born as a learned Brahmana for the next seven births. 33 Other Homas: Worship of Devatas is also essential. For every activity of our lives, our body, its organs and senses like eyes, ears, hands etc are very crucial. Devatas are the controllers for these senses and limbs as well as for the air, water, food grains, light etc. that are absolutely essential for our very existence. Thus one has to offer worship in many ways to the Devatas who extend their grace and assistance to us in so many different ways. Espescially during Adhika Masa Homa, Japa are to be performed to please these Devatas. Hence we are performing these Homas for Navagraha and other deities. 'Veda, Sarva Moola, Sudha' Parayana: The Apaurusheya (authorless) Vedas are Stotras of Lord Sri Hari. The Supreme qualities of the Lord are praised and proclaimed to us by the Vedas. It is to reveal the real meaning of these Vedas that Brahma Sutras, Mahabharata, Bhagavata etc. have been composed. To make us easily understand the meaning of these, Sriman Madhvacharya has composed the Sarva Moola Granthas. Sarva Moola Granthas give us the 'true knowledge about the Supreme Being' (i.e. Bhagavat Tattva Gnana), by narrating to us His great qualities. The inner meaning and grandeur of Sarva Moola Granthas are brilliantly illuminated by Sri Jayatirtha in his treatises. Sriman Nyayasudha is regarded as the greatest of his treatises. Thus, to extol Sri Hari and for gaining Tatva Gnana as well as all- round prosperity, the Parayana of Veda, Sarva Moola Grantha & Sriman Nyaya Sudha is being performed. Bhajana : 'Dasarapada's are Stotras composed by our great Sages and Sants in the Prakruta Bhasha (or regional language) - just like the Stotras in Sanskrit. Thus offering praise by reciting the words of the divine composers that reveal the glories of Sri Hari and Gurugalu, undoubtedly bestows great punya. Hence Bhajana by 33 Bhajana Mandalis. Brahmana Pooja: Lord Sri Hari is to be worshipped in various Adhistanas (abodes) like Saligrama, Agni, Surya, Water, idol etc. Worshipping Him in living beings is considered better. That too, worshipping Him in human beings, Brahmanas, Pandits are considered increasingly superior. Contemplating the the 72,000 forms of the Lord (which are present in a Brahmana and extolled in the Bruhati Sahasra Mantras) while performing Brahmana Pooja is considered very special and rewarding. Hence in Adhika Masa, Pooja to Lord Sri Hari in learned Brahmanas. Laksha Archana & Laksha Deepotsava : Performing Archana to Lord Sri Hari provides one with plenty of food and bestows honours as well. One who Lights a lamp in front of Lord surely begets Gnana, and good children. In this Adhika Masa, Laksha Pushpa Archana as well as Deepotsava by lighting one Lakh Deepas are being performed.
