Haradanahalli: FEBRUARY 27, 2012
Prathishta of Deveshwara at Haradanahalli
On the morning of 27th February, Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji proceeded from Belur to Haradanahalli, where He performed the Prathishta Kumbhabhisheka of Deveshwara temple. In His Anugraha Bhashanam, the Jagadguru said that it is natural for everyone to strive for happiness and the removal of one’s suffering. However we find that not all achieve success in this endeavor. The Shastras declare that it is hence essential to have faith in the existence of the Supreme Lord and act in accordance to Dharma. While those who resort to Adharma and adopt unrighteous means may seem to accomplish their immediate objectives, their fall is definite. Hence even in the midst of suffering, one should not forsake Dharma. The Jagadguru blessed the devotees, led by former Prime Minister Sri Deve Gowda and his son Sri Revanna who constructed the temple.
