One should not resort to dosha chintana, helana, avahelana. Sri Guru Raayaru should always be adored with utmost reverence; devotion; faith; obeisance and gratitude. He is Kaliyuga Kaamadhenu – Kalpavriksha; His glory is everlasting;
👉Worshiping Sri Guru RaAyaru is Hari Preeti;
Apparently, Raksha Bandhan symbolizes the unmatched bondage of love, care and respect between a brother and a sister which is renewed through the Rakhi festival.
Raksha Bandhan escalates the need for both men and women, young and old to cultivate pious feelings for each other and live in a harmonious co-existence as brothers and sisters in the society.
Above sloka is one of the most popular, meritorious and meaningful sloka on Mantralaya Guru SaArvabhouma Sri Raaghavendra Swamy; It is not an exaggeration that there is no devout Hindu household who doesn't know or recite this simple but powerful sloka; +++
It will B more devotional if this sloka is recited knowing its meaning/significance. For a common man it's a remedy, for a Vedanti (scholar) it speaks volumes about glory of GuruRayaru. Let's try to make novice understanding of this beautiful sloka yatha-shakti, yatha yogyata. ++
Well within the ambit of Dvaita siddhantha #RAGHAVENDRA is a unique & matchless heritage
🙏🙏🙏
Had #Prahlada#Raayaru been selfish and returned back to Vaikunta when he was called by none other Bhagavantha in the form of Lord Narasimha what would have happened? +++
But, Prahlada Raayaru didn't do that. He politely refused and instead preferred to stay back on earth propagating the divine culture and bhakti of ParamaAtma SriManNarayana. +++
#SriEsHa = Sri + Eesha = #SriEesha;
Sri means Goddess Lakshmi and Eesha means the Lord and SriEesha means the Lord of Goddess Lakshmi the Goddess of fortune and wealth. ++..
