Jagadguru Graces Gudivada
Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji arrived at Gudivada on 3rd February 2013.
On 4th February, the Jagadguru visited Pranavashramam in Gudivada and blessed the residents of the Ashram and the devotees. In His Anugraha Bhashanam, the Jagadguru said that it has become a tradition of the Sringeri Jagadgurus when in Gudivada, to visit the Ashram where the torch of the Vedantic teaching, expounded by Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada, has been shining for many decades. The Jagadguru then visited the Bethavolu village, near Gudivada, had Darshan of Anandeshwara Swamy, gave an Anugraha Bhashanam to the devotees and performed Sharada Chandramoulishwara Puja.
The following morning the Jagadguru blessed the devotees with Darshan and Phala Mantrakshata. Starting from Gudivada towards Bantumilli, the Jagadguru stopped at Kautaram and had Darshan at the Gautameshwara and Parvati Temple and blessed the devotees. The Jagadguru then graced the Nadupuru Agrahara where devotees received the Jagadguru’s blessings. The Jagadguru also visited Ganga Parvati Sameta Ramalingeshwara Swamy temple at Guraja, Mudinepalli and had Darshan.
