जातस्य हि ध्रुवो मृत्यु:ध्रुवों जन्म मृतस्य च।
तस्माद् अपरिहार्येऽर्थे न त्वं शोचितुम् अर्हति।।

SPB Sir in his house at Nellore. Jagadguru Sankaracharya Swamigal of KanchiMutt visited the house that was said to be used by his late father who was himself a great Harikatha exponent in AP.

Unheard anecdote.When Jagadguru Jayendra periyava was upset with uncontrollable religious conversion he witnessed in odisha in early 1980s,he wanted to dedicate himself fully to stop it by relinquishing headship of Matham&concentrate on consolidating Hindu unity. Hence he brought
his successor 70th Jagadguru in 1983. But his Guru Mahaperiyava didn't allow him to quit Matham. But in 1987 he left Matham to perform tapas at Talakaveri. But Mahaperiyava brought him again to Matham & told him. Whatever happens around us will happen due to various reasons. We
Can't prevent them. But our duty is to perform our own duty of serving the society the way we are required to as practised by our purvacharyas. Do Chandramouliswara puja with great care.HE'll do what you may want to do for this society.
Since then Acharyas intensified thier tapas
एकसप्ततितम-श्रीकामकोटीश-स्वागत-स्तुतिः.எழுபத்தோராவது ஶ்ரீ காமகோடீஶரின் ஸ்வாகத ஸ்துதி
Stuti to welcome the seventy-first Shri Kamakotisha
वेदरूपे वसुन्यस्मद्-
विश्वासं परिरक्षितुम्।
विश्वावसौ समुद्भूतं
कामकोटीशमाश्रये॥१॥
வேதமெனும் வஸு அதாவது செல்வத்தில் நமது விஶ்வாஸத்தை ரக்ஷிக்க
விஶ்வாவஸு வருடத்தில் வந்த காமகோடீஶரை ஆஶ்ரயிக்கிறேன்.
I devote myself to the Kamakotisha who came in the Vishvavasu year to protect our vishvasa in the vasu or wealth that is the Veda.
अक्षयं फलमादेष्टुम्
अक्षयातिथिसम्भवम्।
क्षयिष्णुवस्तुविमुखं
कामकोटीशमाश्रये॥२॥
க்ஷயமாகும்
வஸ்துக்களில் விருப்பமற்று, அக்ஷயமான பலனை அடையும் வழி போதிக்க அக்ஷயா திதியில் வந்த காமகோடீஶரை ஆஶ்ரயிக்கிறேன்.
I devote myself to the Kamakotisha disinterested in impermanent objects, who came on Akshaya Tithi to teach the way of attaining the akshaya goal.
The long expected announcement from the Jagadguru Sankaracharya Swamigal of Sri @KanchiMatham that he has found his successor to lead the followers of Sanatanadharma through the Srimatham. Vidwan Ganesh Dravida from Annavaram, AP would receive Sanyasashrama deeksha&be trained🙏🙏
Being a Sankaracharya in @KanchiMatham is not a showy position but tremendous responsibilities. He needs to perform 3kala puja lasting for 6-7hrs everyday besides looking after the adminstrn of the organztn. Needs to give patient hearing to all devotees &offer dharmik solutions.
@KanchiMatham He can't even let someone to keep his danda while on move. He has to carry by himslf on his person wherever he goes both in public&pvt places. Rigorous routines will be there in his daily life. It's really a much taxing task to maintain that routine w/o compromising on yatidharma
300days ago when Ramjanmabhumi kumbhabhishekam happened on 22nd Jan24, Jagadguru Shankaracharya Swamigal of @KanchiMatham organized a 'danda' krama parayanam (1of the 8vikrti pathas of Rigveda) as a ShrutiSamarpana to Kodandarama. Vidyarthis of Pazhur patadinamalar.com/news/tamil-nad…
sala who all are ghanapatigals chanted the entire Rigveda in dandakrama method lasted for 300days. On completion of parayanam they were honoured with Sambhavana & title Vikrtijna thru a certificate.
Gurus were honoured with 1 lakh.
Today we've 150 ghanapatigals in Rigveda.
40years back there were hardly 10 ghanapatigals & today it's a min 150.
In Yajurveda there were 30-40 in 1980s, today it's more than 300.
In Samveda it was 15-20. Today it's more than 150.
All this was due to the efforts of @KanchiMatham&it's tireless Acharyas.
Vedas wl live here
#Vivekananda_rock_memorial at Kanyakumari was built by @RSSorg headed by late.Eknath Ranade ji.
My father late. R.Sankaran (elder bro of late Rama.Gopalan ji of @hindumunnani_tn) was the joint secretary of the committee that built it.
Appa then was involved with everything there
Can anyone get me the list of office bearers of the trust that built the memorial then in 60s?
I want to see my father's name there.
Please get me an image of the page if any is available in any of the souvenir published after inauguration of the memorial.
Thanks to @Kakipillakaki for sharing the letter written by Eknath ji to my father in 1963.
Appa had very high respect for Eknathji as Guruji, the then sarsanghachalak of @RSSorg personally asked him to stand by Eknathji till d end of the project.
Both Guruji&Eknath ji visited us
When Jagadguru Sri.Jayendra Saraswathi Sankaracharya Swamigal was arrested in 2004, he was kept in Vellore Jail. Strict restrictions were laid by Govt for his visitors & many were denied permission to visit Acharya.
One morning Dr.SSB came to jail& waited for 2hrs for permission
To meet Acharya. He got it at last &was with Achaya for 1hr&came out. I asked him how did he feel then?
Many of devotees had changed their ideas on Acharya influenced by the Govts version. But Dr had unflinching faith on Acharya & said "My Guru couldn't be a wrong doer as I know
Him thoroughly since many years".
Yes. Dr B was behind several eye health initiatives of @KanchiMatham. Our Gauhati Sankaradeva netralaya, Chennai,Coimbatore, Bhubaneswar centres of Sankara Eye hospitals happened due to inspirations from his services on this area. Sraddhanjalih🙏
