Jai Srimannarayana..!

Krishna Pushkaralu is the festival of the river Krishna. The main significance of this Krishna Pushkaralu is that it occurs once in every 12 years in other words called it as Pushakaram.

Earlier, only Godavari pushkarams were conducted. But, now we are celebrating pushkarams for all rivers – Krushna, Tungabhadra and Kaveri.  HH Pedda Jeeyar Swamiji was a pioneer who initiated celebrating the pushkarams for these rivers. HH Pedda Jeeyar Swamiji celebrated the Krushna pushkarams twice. We are very fortunate to have the Krushna pushkaram at this time of the year.

During pushkarams, we are going to perform Bramha Yajna in NRI  college. As part of Ramanuja millinnium birth celebrations, we are doing a program – Samatha Snanam on Aug 19th, 2016.

Great philosophers and social reformers wished to have a loving and compassionate heart as Bhagavad Ramanuja. There can be differences in size, shape, forms, cost, from a sand grain to an airplane but all sink in the same way in an ocean. Similarly everyone irrespective of their cadre, right from Sri Lakshmi devi, Adishesha to us mortals, animals, plants, insects – all are equally qualified to get the grace of God and be part of God’s service. This was spread by Ramanujacharya Swamy.  He is Samatha Murthy.

Today, 1000 years have passed. We are celebrating big programs like Krushna Pushkarams but it is very unfortunate to see that the downtrodden and backward classes are being neglected and not brought on par with the main stream of the society. They are still being out casted and not allowed into the temples which is very shameful.

There are still a few families who proudly practice Ramanuja sampradaya by wearing namam on their foreheads, having gothra namas such as Parasara, Ramanuja and addressing each other as Adiyen ( I am the servant of God ) and practicing what has been passed on through their lineage.  It is so unfortunate to listen to instances where such people are still prevented from entering temples. 

Appreciating their efforts in continuing the practices that were passed down to them 1000 years ago, it is our duty to reinstate that we are all EQUAL. Hence the program –  Samatha Snanam. We are inviting everyone who follow Ramanuja sampradaya, who follow Vishista Advaitha to come and participate in Samatha snanam in Krushna river on Aug 19th and listen to messages from 10am to 4pm from various scholars.

WE WELCOME EVERYONE TO JOIN THIS UNIQUE AND HOLY BATH.

JAI SRIMANNARAYANA!!!
