The Shankaracharyas of Bharat

Shankaracharya (शङ्कराचार्य) is title of heads of dharma mathas in th Advaita Vedanta tradition.
Jagath Guru Shree Adi Shankaracharya set up 4 peetas in India (East West North & South). Peetas take th dharma forward & guide people for spiritually.
Adi Guru has introduced the Guru Shishya parampara across India. These peetas have main gurus who take the responsibility of dharma samrakshan and paripalan. They pass on the responsibility to next most eligible and shishya who is ready to take the vows.
This tradition passing on to the generations is called Amnaya (Tradition). This sampradaya has given immense spiritual richness of knowledge & wisdom to all the mankind on #SanatanaDharma.The 4 amnayas together are called CHATURAMNAYAS.

एकं नित्यं विमलमचलं सर्वधीसाक्षिभूतं
भावातीतं त्रिगुणरहितं सद्गुरुं तं नमामि ||
He who has attained the Bliss of Brahman, the Supreme Joy, He who is pure (free from delusion), embodiment of Wisdom

Beyond the duality of the world, sky high in spirituality, He whose attention is on "I am that"
One with divinity, Eternal, Without impurities, immovably established in truth, He who is witness to everything (from his omniscience.)

Beyond the mind(emotions), without the three Gunas (of Sattva, Rajas, Tamas), Salutations o that Holy Guru.

Pitra Dosh– In contrast to the misconception of it being the curse from forefathers, Pitra Dosh is actually a karmic debt of the ancestors. It is reflected in the Kundli in a form of malefic planetary combinations and is to be paid by the person having Pitra dosha in his Kundli.
To put it simply, Pitra dosh is formed in a person’s horoscope, when his/her ancestors have committed some sin or mistake. So, in exchange for that, the native is held accountable to pay for the wrongdoings of their forefather’s past deeds by going through various punishments.
Presence of Pitra Dosha in one’s horoscope may bring about some inevitable and unexpected hardships in the native’s life. It causes severe ups and downs in one’s lifespan. The native tends to suffer from a lack of mental decisiveness and money.
