This sloka is #charama sloka on Sri Guru #RaAghavendra Theertharu composed by His disciple and successor Sri #YogeEndra Theertharu;

Meaning...++

like Sun dispels darkness, #GuruRaAyaru destroys ignorance, wrong tenets; doctrines/vipareeta jnaana born out of negative tendencies, He is like Moon in granting boons to devotees of Vishnu who believe in Hari-Sarvottamatva; (contd...+)

My obeisance & salutations to the utmost compassionate, kind & merciful Guru Sri #Raaghavendra🙏🙏🙏

One should clearly understand frm scholars D glory, merits & significance of Sri #GuruRayaru, have #TRUST in Him. When once U Trust Sri Rayaru there's no room for a wavering mind. What is that Sri GuruRayaru not capable of? It's only ignorance R Vipareeta jnaana R lack of trust.+

As long as one follows Hari Sarvottamatva-Vayu Jeevottamatva there is nothing 2 fear in any Yuga. As long as one follows Sri GuruRaAyaru nothing 2 fear in Kaliyuga. Only those who follow Mantralaya Guru Sarvabhouma Sri Raghavendra Swamy will get anugraha frm Sri LakshmiNarasimha+
