శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ స్మరణ మహిమ 

శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల దయవలన నేను విచిత్రపురం నుండి బయలుదేరితిని. నా మనస్సు చిదంబరము నందలి పరమేశ్వరుని దర్శించుటకు ఉవ్విళ్లూరుచుండెను. మూడురోజులు ప్రయాణము ఆనందకరముగా జరిగెను. నాకు అయాచితముగా భోజనము లభించుచుండెను. నాలుగవ దినమున ఒక గ్రామమునందు ఒక బ్రాహ్మణ గృహద్వారమున నిలబడి భిక్ష యాచించితిని. లోపలి నుండి మహా రౌద్రాకారముతో గృహ యజమాని భార్య వచ్చి అన్నమూ లేదు, సున్నమూ లేదు, అని కసురుకొనెను. నేను గృహము బైటనే కొంతసేపు వేచి యుంటిని. గృహ యజమాని బయటకు వచ్చి, "అయ్యా! అతిథి అభ్యాగతి సేవలకు నేను నోచుకొనలేదు. నా భార్య పరమగయ్యాళి. ఆమెకు కోపము వచ్చిన యెడల నా నెత్తి మీద కుండలను పగులగొట్టును. ఈ విషయమున మాత్రము మా గురుదేవుల ధర్మపత్నియు, యీమెయు సమానము. అయితే నా భార్య మాత్రము తను పగులగొట్టిన కుండల యొక్క మూల్యమును తెమ్మని నన్ను బాధించును.మా గురుదేవుల ధర్మపత్ని మాత్రము భాండమూల్యమును తెమ్మని బాధింపదు. ఇప్పుడే నా నెత్తిమీద కుండలు పగులగొట్టబడినవి. మా యింట అన్నోదకములకు లోటు లేదు. నేను భాండమూల్యమును మాత్రము విధిగా సత్వరమే చెల్లింపవలెను. అది నాకు సంకటముగా ఉన్నది. ఈ రోజున సంభావన దొరకు అవకాశమున్న యెడల ఇబ్బంది ఉండదు. లేని యెడల ఎవరి దగ్గరో అప్పో సొప్పో చేయవలెను. తిరిగి సంభావనలు దొరికినప్పుడు ఆ అప్పు తీర్చవలెను. నేను సంభావనలో దొరికిన ద్రవ్యములో కొంత భాగమును అప్పులు తీర్చుటకు వినియోగించి, మిగిలిన భాగమును ఆమెకు ఇచ్చుచుందును.

 ఈ పధ్ధతి కొంతకాలము వరకు సాగెను. ఈ మధ్యన సంభావనలో దొరకు యావత్తు ద్రవ్యమును ఆమెయే తీసుకోనుచుండెను. అందువలన అప్పు తీర్చుటకు దారి కనబడుటలేదు. నా పరిస్థితి తెలిసినవారు ఎవ్వరునూ అప్పు ఇచ్చుటకు ముందుకు వచ్చుట లేదు. లోకులు 'నీకు అప్పు యిచ్చిన యెడల ఏ విధముగా తీర్చెదవు? మున్ముందు సంభావనలు వచ్చునపుడు తీర్చెదమనుకొందువా? ఆ దారియును యిప్పుడు మూసుకొని పోయెను.' అని అనుచుండిరి. స్థితిపరుడనయిన నాకు ఎవ్వరునూ దానము కూడా చేయుటలేదు. పైగా ఎగతాళి చేయుచుండిరి. ఇప్పుడు నేను భాండమూల్యమును చెల్లింపవలెను. నా భార్య నిన్ను కసురుకొనిన పిదప నన్ను లోనికి పిలచి, 'వీధిలో ఒక తీర్థయాత్రికుడు ఉన్నాడు. నీవు అతనితో పోయి ఎచ్చటయినా ఎవరయినా దానమిచ్చిన యెడల తీసుకురావలసినది. అప్పుడు మాత్రమే యింటిలో నీకు అన్నము లభించును.' అని అన్నది. అంతట భార్యా విధేయుడనై నేను నీతో బయలుదేరి వచ్చెదను. ఈ గ్రామములోని బ్రాహ్మణ్యము యొక్క గృహములన్నియును నాకు బాగుగా తెలియును. మనకు భోజనముతో పాటు దక్షిణ రూపమున కూడా ధనము లభించవచ్చును." అని ఆ బ్రాహ్మణుడు పలికెను. నేను నివ్వెరపోతిని. శ్రీపాదా! శ్రీవల్లభా! ఏమి యీ విషమ పరీక్ష! అనుకోని ఆ బ్రాహ్మణునితో కలిసి ఆ అగ్రహారములోని ప్రతి గృహస్థు యింటికిని పోయితిని. ధనసహాయము మాట అటుంచి ఒక్కరునూ పట్టెడు అన్నమును పెట్టువారే కరువయిరి. నాతో వచ్చిన బ్రాహ్మణుడు యిట్లు పలికెను. "అయ్యా! ఇప్పటివరకు నేను మాత్రమే దురదృష్టవంతుడను. నాతో కలియుట వలన నీ అదృష్టము కూడా హరించి నీకు కూడా దురదృష్టవంతుడవయితివి." అప్పుడు నేను యిట్లంటిని. "అయ్యా! సమస్త జీవులకును ఆహారమును సమకూర్చువాడు సర్వసమర్థుడైన శ్రీదత్త ప్రభువే! వారు ఈ కలియుగములో శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ నామరూపములతో కురువపురమున ఉన్నారు. నేను వారి దర్శనార్థమే పోవుచుంటిని. వారి నామస్మరణ చేసుకొనుచూ ఆ కనిపించుచున్న రావిచెట్టు మొదటలో కూర్చొనెదము. ఆపైన శ్రీదత్త ప్రభుని అనుగ్రహము". అని పలికితిని.

దానికి ఆ బ్రాహ్మణుడు వల్లెయనెను. కడుపులో ఆకలి దహించుచున్నది. నీరసముతో కూడిన స్వరముతో శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల నామస్మరణము చేయుచుంటిని. నామస్మరణ కొనసాగుచుండగా విచిత్రపుర రాజభటులు మా వద్దకు వచ్చి, "అయ్యా! యువరాజుల వారికి మాట వచ్చినది. మూగతనము పోయినది. సత్వరమే మిమ్ములను తీసుకొని రమ్మని రాజాజ్ఞ అయినది. అందుచేత మీరు వెంటనే మాతో రావలసినదని" విన్నవించిరి. మా దురవస్థను రాజభటులకు చెప్పక నేనిట్లంటిని. "నేను ఒంటరిగా రాజాలను. నాతోపాటు యీ బ్రాహ్మణుని కూడా తీసుకుని వెళ్లవలెనని చెప్పితిని." దానికి రాజభటులు వల్లెయనిరి. మమ్ములను గుఱ్ఱములపై కూర్చుండబెట్టుకొని సగౌరవముగా తీసుకొని పోవుటను అగ్రహారీకులందరు గమనించి ముక్కుమీద వ్రేలు వేసికొనిరి.

మహారాజు ఇట్లు పలికెను. "అయ్యా! మహాత్మా! మీరు మహాపండితులని తెలిసి కూడా మిమ్ము సత్కరించకుండగా వట్టి చేతులతో పంపించితిమి. మీరు వెళ్ళిన తదుపరి యువరాజు స్పృహ తప్పి పడిపోయెను. అనేక ఉపచారములను చేసితిమి. చాలా సేపటికి కనులు తెరచి శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ దిగంబరా! శ్రీదత్త దేవా దిగంబరా! అని పలుకసాగెను. యువరాజునకు ఆజానుబాహుడు, అత్యంత సుందరాకారుడయిన 16 సంవత్సరముల యతి దర్శనమిచ్చి, నోటిలో విభూతిని వేసెనని యువరాజుల వారు చెప్పిరి. ఆ యతి ఎవరు? ఎచ్చటనుందురు? శ్రీదత్తప్రభువులకును, ఆ యోగికిని గల సంబంధమేమి?" దయ ఉంచి తెలుపవలసినదని కోరెను.

"శ్రీపాదుల శ్రీపాదుకా మహిమను నేనేమి వర్ణించగలను? వారు సాక్షాత్తు దత్త ప్రభువుల అవతారము. శ్రీకృష్ణావతారము వలె అత్యంత విశిష్టమైన అవతార స్వరూపము వారిది. వారిని గూర్చి నేను విన్నది కూడా స్వల్పము మాత్రమే! వారిని దర్శించుకొను నిమిత్తమే నేను కురువపురమునకు పోవుచుంటిని. మధ్యలో గల పుణ్యస్థలములను, పుణ్యపురుషులను దర్శించుకొనుచుంటిని." అని సవినయముగా పలికితిని.

విచిత్రపురము నందలి పండితులు కూడా ఈ విచిత్ర సంఘటనకు ఆశ్చర్యపోయిరి. తమ మండల దీక్ష ఫలితముగా, రాజునకు సద్బుద్ధి ఏర్పడి, తమకు విమోచనము కలుగుటయే గాక యువరాజునకు మూగతనము పోయినందులకు వారు వేనోళ్ళ శ్రీవల్లభస్వామిని కీర్తించిరి.

రాజు నన్ను స్వర్ణదానముతో సత్కరించెను. రాజగురువు ఇట్లనెను. "అయ్యా! యిన్ని రోజులకు మాకు జ్ఞానోదయమైనది. శైవులు విష్ణుదూషణ చేయుట వలననూ, వైష్ణవులు శివదూషణ చేయుట వలననూ పాపము మూటగట్టుకొనుట తప్ప మరేమీ ప్రయోజనము లేదని గ్రహించితిమి. మా దైవదూషణలకు ప్రతిఫలముగా కష్టములను అనుభవించితిమి. తెలిసో తెలియకో మా మాధవ నంబూద్రి పుణ్యమా అని దత్తప్రభుని మండల దీక్షలో నుంటిమి. మీకు మేమెంతయునూ ఋణపడి యున్నాము." అని పలికెను.

మేము వారి నుండి శెలవు పుచ్చుకుని వచ్చునపుడు మాధవనంబూద్రి కూడా మాతో పాటు వచ్చెదనని పట్టుబట్టెను. మేము సరేనంటిమి. మేము ముగ్గురమూ అగ్రహారము చేరితిమి. రాజు మాకు దానముగా యిచ్చిన స్వర్ణమును అగ్రహార బ్రాహ్మణ్యమునకు యిచ్చితిని. అతని గయ్యాళి భార్య స్వర్ణమును గ్రహించిన తదుపరి మాకు భోజనము పెట్టెను. తదుపరి ఆమె కూడా శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల భక్తురాలిగా మారెను. మునుపటి గయ్యాళితనము పోయి ఆమె సాధువర్తనురాలాయెను.

నేనూ, మాధవ నంబూద్రి కలిసి చిదంబరం వైపునాకు ప్రయాణము సాగించితిమి. ధర్మశాస్త అయ్యప్పదేవుని పూజార్థము గోదావరి మండలాంతర్గతమగు ర్యాలి గ్రామ నివాసులయిన పరబ్రహ్మశాస్త్రిని అగస్త్య మహర్షి తీసుకొని వెళ్ళెను. కాలక్రమమున గర్తపురీ(గుంటూరు) మండలాంతర్గతమైన నంబూరు గ్రామము నందలి వేదపండితులులను, మళయాళదేశము నేలు రాజవంశమువారు ఆహ్వానించగా చాలామంది బ్రాహ్మణులు నంబూరు విడిచి మళయాళదేశము చేరి వేదవిద్యను ప్రకాశింపజేసిరి. వారినే నంబూద్రి బ్రాహ్మణులని వ్యవహరించుట కద్దు. ఆదిశంకరుల వారి పూర్వీకులు కూడా నంబూరు అగ్రహారీకులే! నంబూద్రి బ్రాహ్మణులు ఆచార వ్యవహారములలోను, నియమ నిష్టలలోను, మంత్ర తంత్ర యంత్ర విద్యలలోను చాల ప్రసిద్ధులు. అయితే మాధవనంబూద్రి మాత్రము నిరక్షర కుక్షి. బ్రాహ్మణ గృహముల వంట జేసుకొని జీవించుచుండెను. పసితనముననే తల్లిదండ్రులను పోగొట్టుకొనెను. అయినవారు ఆదరింపరైరి. దత్తప్రభువునందు అతడు అచంచల భక్తి కలవాడు. శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల అవతారమును గురించి విన్న మీదట వారిని ఎప్పుడు దర్శించెదనా యని తహతహలాడుచున్నాడు.

మేము చిదంబరం దాపులలో సిద్ధ మహాత్ములు ఒకరున్నారని విని, కొండకోనలలో ఏకాంతముగా ఉన్న వృద్ధ తపస్వి అయిన శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి వారిని దర్శించితిమి. మేము గుహ ద్వారమునకు వచ్చినప్పటికి శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి మమ్ములను చూచి, "మాధవశంకరులు యిద్దరూ కలిసి వచ్చుచున్నారే ? ఏమి భాగ్యము!" అని పలికెను. మేము మా పరిచయమును తెలుపకుండగనే మమ్ము పేరుతో పిలువగల వీరు సిద్ధ పురుషులని గ్రహించితిమి. కరుణాంతరంగులయిన శ్రీస్వామి "నాయనా! శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల వారి ఆజ్ఞానుసారము నేను దేహమును త్యజించి వేరొక యవ్వనవంతమైన దేహములోనికి ప్రవేశించు సమయము ఆసన్నమైనది. ప్రస్తుత ఈ శరీరము యొక్క వయస్సు 300 సంవత్సరములు. శిథిలమైన ఈ దేహమును త్యజించి నూతన శరీరములో మరొక 300 సంవత్సరములు ఉండవలెనని శ్రీపాదుల వారి ఆజ్ఞ. జీవన్ముక్తులయిన వారు, జనన మరణ రూప సృష్టిక్రమమును దాటిన వారు కూడా శ్రీపాదుల వారు తిరిగి రమ్మని ఆజ్ఞాపించిన వచ్చి తీరవలసినదే ! సమస్త సృష్టిని నడిపించు మహాసంకల్పమే శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ రూపమున అవతరించినది. వారి అవతరణము ఉన్నతములయిన సూక్ష్మ లోకములలో ఎల్లప్పుడూ జరుగుచునే యుండును. నరరూపధారియై వచ్చుట సకృత్తు. వారిది యోగ సంపూర్ణ అవతారము. వారి అంశావతారములు ఎల్లపుడునూ యీ భూమి మీద  భక్తి రక్షనర్థము అవతరించుచునే యుండును. నాయనా! శంకరా! నీవు విచిత్ర పురమున కాణాద మహర్షి గురించి వారి కాన సిద్ధాంతమును గురించి వచించితివే, కాస్త వివరింపుము." అని పలికిరి.

కాణాద మహర్షి కణ సిద్ధాంతము

                                                                కాణాద మహర్షి 



"స్వామీ! నన్ను క్షమింపుడు. కాణాదమహర్షి గురించి, వారి కణసిద్ధాంతము గురించి నాకు తెలిసినది బహు స్వల్పము. నేను వచించినది కూడా అప్రయత్నముగా నా నోట పలికించబడినదని స్వామికి తెలియని విషయము కాదు." అని అంటిని.

కరుణాస్వరూపులైన శ్రీ పలనిస్వామి యిట్లు వచించిరి. సమస్త సృష్టియును కూడా పరమములయిన అణువులచే నిర్మింపబడినది. అటువంటి పరమాణువుల కంటే కూడా సూక్ష్మమైన కణముల ఉనికి వలన విద్యుల్లతలు ఉద్భవించును. సూర్యుని చుట్టూ కేంద్ర బిన్డువుననుసరించి మహా వేగములతో తమ తమ కక్ష్యలలో పరిభ్రమించుచుండును. ఇటువంటి సూక్ష్మ కణముల కంటెను సూక్ష్మమైన స్థితిలో ప్రాణుల యొక్క సమస్త భావోద్వేగాముల స్పందనలు ఉండును. స్పందనశీలమైన యీ జగత్తులో ఏదీ స్థిరముగా ఉండజాలదు. చంచలత్వమే దీని స్వభావము. క్షనక్షము మార్పులు చెందుటయే దీని స్వభావము. ఈ స్పందనల కంటెను కూడా సూక్ష్మ స్థితిలో దత్త ప్రభువుల వారి చైతన్యముండును. వారి అనుగ్రహము పొందుట ఎంత సులభాసధ్యమో అంత కష్ట సాధ్యము కూడా. ప్రతీ కణమును అనంత భాగములుగా విభజిస్తూ పోయిన యెడల ఒక్కొక్క కణ భాగము శూన్య సమానమగుచుండెను. అనంతములైన మహా శూన్యముల సంయోగ ఫలితమే యీ చరాచర సృష్టి, పదార్థము సృష్టి అయినట్లే పూర్తిగా దీనికి భిన్నమైన వ్యతిరేక పదార్థము కూడా ఉందును. ఇవి రెండునూ కలిసినపుడు వ్యతిరేకపదార్థము నశించును. పదార్థము తన గుణగణములను మార్పు చేసుకొనును. అర్చావతారములలో ప్రాణ ప్రతిష్ట జరిగినపుడు ఆ విగ్రహమూర్తులు చైతన్యవంతముగనే యుండి భక్తుల మనోభీష్టములను తీర్చుటకు సమర్థ  వంతమగును. సర్వమంత్రములును కుండలిని యందే కలుగును. దాని యందే గాయత్రీ కూడా కలిగినది. గాయత్రి మంత్రము నందు మూడు పాదములు కలవని అందరూ భావింతురు. అయితే గాయత్రీ మంత్రము నందలి నాలుగవ పాదము 'పరోరజసి సావదోమ్' అని ఉన్నది. చతుష్పాద గాయత్రి నిర్గుణ బ్రహ్మమును సూచించునది అయి ఉన్నది. కుండలినీశక్తి 24 తత్త్వములలో యీ జగత్తులు సృష్టి చేయును. గాయత్రీ యందు కూడా 24 అక్షరములు కలవు. 24 అను సంఖ్యకు గోకులము అని కూడా పేరు కలదు.'గో' అనగా 2. కులము అనగా 4 . బ్రహ్మస్వరూపము మార్పులకు అతీతము కనుక తొమ్మిది సంఖ్యచే సూచితము. ఎనిమిది అనునది మహామాయా స్వరూపము. శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభులు తనకు యిష్టమైన వారి నుండి "దో చౌపాతీ దేవ్ లక్ష్మీ" అని అనుచుండెడివారు. జీవులందరికీ పాటి స్వరూపము పరబ్రహ్మమే కనుక పతిదేవ్ అనునది తొమ్మిది సంఖ్యను, లక్ష్మీ అనునది ఎనిమిది సంఖ్యను, 'దో' అనునది రెండు సంఖ్యను 'చౌ' అనునది నాలుగు సంఖ్యను సూచించునవి అయి ఉన్నవి. 'దో చపాతీ దేవ్ లక్ష్మీ' అనుటకు మారుగా అపభ్రంశముగా, విచిత్రముగా 'దో చౌపాతీ దేవ్ లక్ష్మీ' అని పిలుచుచూ 2498 సంఖ్యను జీవులకు గుర్తుచేయు చుండిరి. గోకులము నందలి పరబ్రహ్మము, పరాశక్తి శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ రూపముననే ఉన్నవి. శ్రీ కృష్ణ పరమాత్మయే శ్రీవల్లభులని తెలియుము. గాయత్రీ మంత్ర స్వరూపము వారి నిర్గుణ పాదుకలని గుర్తించెదము.

                                                      శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ నిర్గుణ పాదుకలు


"నాయనా! శంకరా! స్థూల మానవ శరీరము నందు 12 రకముల భేదములు కలవు. అందరికినీ అనుభవైక వేద్యమగు స్థూల శరీరము స్థూల సూర్యుని ప్రభావమునకు లోనగునది. ఒకదాని కంటెను మరియొకటి సూక్ష్మ స్పందనలతో కూడిన శరీరములు ద్వాదశాదిత్యుల ప్రభావమునకు లోనగుచుండును.అయితే శ్రీవల్లభులు ద్వాదశ ఆదిత్యుల కంటెను కూడా అతీతమైన వారు గనుక వారి యొక్క దివ్య స్థూల శరీరము చిత్ర విచిత్రములైన దివ్య స్పందనలను కలిగి ఉండును.

మానవ శరీరముతో శ్రీ పీఠికాపురమున అవతరించుటకు ముందే అనగా 108 సంవత్సరములకు ముందే శ్రీవల్లభులు యీ ప్రదేశమునకు విచ్చేసిరి. నన్ను అనుగ్రహించిరి. ఇప్పుడు కురువపురమున ఏ రూపముతో నున్నారో అదే రూపముతో వారు యిచ్చతకు విచ్చేసిరి. వారి దివ్యలీలలకు అంతెక్కడిది? శ్రీవల్లభులు యిచ్చతకు విచ్చేసిన తదుపరి కొంతసేపటికి హిమాలయమునందలి మహాయోగులు బదరీ మహాక్షేత్రములో శ్రీ బదరీ నారాయణుని బ్రహ్మకమలములతో పూజించిరి. ఆ బ్రహ్మకమలము లన్నియు ఇచ్చట శ్రీ చరణముల కదా పడుచుండుట గమనించితిని. వారు దేశ కాలములకు అతీతులు." అని వచించెను.

నేను శ్రీ పళని స్వామి వారి దివ్య వచనములతో అనిర్వచనీయ అనుభూతిని పొందితిని. "స్వామీ! బ్రహ్మ కమలములనగా నేమి? అవి ఎచ్చట లభించును? వానిచే పూజించిన శ్రీదత్త ప్రభువు సంప్రీతులగుదురని మీ వచనముల వలన తెలియుచున్నది. దయచేసి నా సందేహము తీర్చగోరెదను." అని కోరితిని.

బ్రహ్మ కమలముల స్వరూపము

నాయనా! శంకరా! నేను దశదిన దీక్షతో తపస్సమాధిలో ఉండదలచితిని. ఆర్తులైన మానవులు ఎవరయినా వచ్చిన యెడల తపస్సమాధికి భంగము కలుగకుండ నీవును, మాధవుడును దర్శనము చేయించవలసినది. పాము కాటుచే చనిపోయిన వారు ఎవరయినా వచ్చిన యెడల స్వామి యోగసమాధిలో ఉన్దేననియు, అందుచేత శాస్త్రప్రకారము చనిపోయినవారి శరీరమును నదీ ప్రవాహములో విడిచివేయుట గాని, లేదా పూడ్చి పెట్టుట గాని చేయవలసినదని నా ఆజ్ఞగా వారికి తెలుపుదు." అని వచించెను.


శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి తన ఆసనమునందే కూర్చుని తపస్సమాదిలోనికి పోయెను. నేనును, మాధవుడును ఆర్తులైన భక్తులు వచ్చినపుడు ప్రశాంతముగా దర్శనము చేయించుచుంటిమి. వచ్చిన భక్తులలో కొందరు మాకు భోజన సంభారములను సమకూర్చిరి. మాధవుడు వంట చేయు ప్రయత్నములో దాపులనున్న కొబ్బరి చెట్టు నుండి మట్ట రాలిపడుటచే అచ్చటకు పోయి ఆ కొబ్బతి మట్టను తెచ్చి వంట ప్రారంభించెదనని పలికెను. నేను వల్లెయుంటిని. మాధవునితో మరియొకడు బయలుదేరెను. విధి వైపరీత్యము! మాధవుడు కొబ్బరి మట్టను ఎత్తబోవునంతలో కొబ్బరి మట్ట చాటున నున్న త్రాచు పాము మాధవుని కరచెను. ముగ్గురు మనుష్యులు పోయి మాధవుని గుహ దరిదాపులకు తీసుకొని వచ్చిరి.

శ్రీ స్వామిది అనుల్లంఘనీయమైన శాసనమగుటచే మాధవుని నేను పాతిపెట్టితిని. ఖనన సందర్భములో నాకు అచ్చట నున్న భక్త జనులు సహకరించిరి. నేను వెక్కి వెక్కి ఏడ్చితిని. మాధవుని నిష్కల్మష హృదయము, వాని నిర్మల భక్తీ, శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల యందు వానికి గల అచంచల విశ్వాసము గుర్తుకు వచ్చి నా మనస్సంతయును కకావికలమయ్యెను. విధి అనుల్లంఘనీయమని సరిపెట్టుకొంతిని. ఈ దుస్సంఘటన తరువాత మరియొక దుస్సంఘటన చూచితిని. ఏడ్పులు పెడబొబ్బలు పెడుతూ 18 సంవత్సరముల ప్రాయము గల ఒక యువకుని శరీరమును వాని సంబంధీకులు తీసుకుని వచ్చిరి. అతడు కూడా పాము కాటు చేతనే మరణించెను. శ్రీస్వామి యోగసమాధిలో నున్నారనియు, వారి ఆజ్ఞ ప్రకారము ఖననము చేయవలసినదనియు తెలిపితిని. అచ్చటనున్న భక్తజనులు, యితని సహచరుడు కూడా ఈ విధముగానే మరణించెననియు, శ్రీస్వామి వారి ఆజ్ఞ ప్రకారము వాని ఖననము కూడ జరిగెననియు తెలిపిరి. వారు విషణ్ణవదనులై గత్యంతరము లేక దుర్విధిని పరిపరివిధములుగా నిందించుకొనుచూ ఆ నవయువకుని ఖననము చేసిరి.

ప్రతీరోజూ ముగ్గురో నలుగురో స్వామివారి దర్శనమునకు వచ్చేదివారు. వారు ప్రశాంతముగా సమాధి స్థితిలోనున్న స్వామివారి దర్శనము చేసుకొని వెళ్ళిపోయెడివారు. ఈ విధముగా పదిరోజులు గడచిపోయెను. పదకొండవ రోజున శ్రీ పళనిస్వామిలో చైతన్యము రాసాగెను. బ్రాహ్మీముహూర్త సమయమున శ్రీ స్వామి చైతన్యస్థులై "మాధవా!" అని పిలిచెను. నేను వెక్కి వెక్కి ఏడ్చుచూ జరిగినదంతయూ వివరించితిని.

అప్పుడు స్వామి నన్ను ఓదార్చి, యోగ దృష్టిని నా వైపు ప్రసరింపచేసెను. ఆ యోగ దృష్టికి నా వెనుబాములో ఏదో సంచలనము కలిగి భరించరాని బాధ కలుగ సాగెను. శ్రీ స్వామి తిరిగి ప్రసన్న దృష్టితో నా వైపు చూసిరి. నా బాధ మటుమాయమయ్యెను. "నాయనా! మాధవునకు శ్రీవల్లభుల దర్శన ప్రాప్తి స్థూల శరీరముతో లేదు. వాని సూక్ష్మ శరీరము యీ పదిరోజులనుండి కురువపురములో నున్న శ్రీ చరనుల సన్నిధిలో ఉన్నది. ఏది ఏమయినను వాని కోర్కె తీరెను. శ్రీవల్లభుల లీలలు అనూహ్యములు. కాల కర్మ కారణ రహస్యములు ఎవ్వరునూ గ్రహింపజాలరు. అది శ్రీపాదుల వారికి మాత్రమే సాధ్యము. మాధవుని స్థూల శరీరములోనికి ప్రవేశింపజేయవలసిన బాధ్యతను శ్రీపాదులవారు నాకు అప్పగించిరి. మనము ఆ పనిని సత్వరమే నేరవేర్పవలెను." అని శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి సెలవిచ్చెను.

నాకు ఇంతకు ముందు ఉన్న విచారమంతయును క్షణములో మాయమయ్యెను. మాధవుడు పునరుజ్జీవితుడు అగుట కంటె నాకు కావలసినది ఏమున్నది? మాధవుని పాతిపెట్టిన చోటికి వచ్చితిమి. శవము బైటకు తీయబడినది. నాకు సహాయకులుగా మరి ఇద్దరు ఉండిరి. స్వామి మమ్ములను దక్షిణదిక్కుగా నున్న తాటిచెట్ల గుంపు వద్దకు పోయి, "మాధవుని కరచిన ఓ నాగరాజమా! శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభుల ఆజ్ఞ ప్రకారము నీవు శ్రీపళనిస్వామి సన్నిధికి రావలసినదని ఆజ్ఞాపించడమైనది." అని చెప్పమన్న మేము ఆ విధముగనే చేసితిమి.


శ్రీ పళని స్వామి తన కౌపీనము నుండి నాలుగు చిన్ని గవ్వలను తీసెను. వాటిని శవము యొక్క నాలుగు దిక్కులా వద్ద ఉంచిరి. అవి కొంతసేపటికి కొద్దిపాటి ఎత్తునకు ఎగిరినవి. ఆ పిదప రివ్వుమని ధ్వని చేయుచూ ఆకాశములోనికి నాలుగు దిక్కులలోనికి పోయినవి. మరి కొంతసేపటికి బుసలు కొట్టుచూ వచ్చుచున్న నాగుపామును చూచితిమి. అది ఉత్తరదిక్కు నుండి వచ్చుచుండెను. ఆ పాము చాలా అసహనముగా ఉండెను. శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి యొక్క నాలుగు చిన్ని గవ్వలు దాని పాడగా మీద గ్రుచ్చినట్లుగా అంటుకొనిపోయి ఉండెను. శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి ఆ పామును మాధవుని శరీరము నుండి విషమును తీసివేయమని చెప్పెను. పాము ఎచ్చట కరచినదో అచ్చటి నుండియే విషము గ్రహించబడెను. శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి శ్రీపాద శ్రీవల్లభ నామమును స్మరిస్తూ ఆ పాముపై మంత్రోదకమును చల్లిరి. ఆ పాము పళనిస్వామి పాదములను ముద్దుపెట్టుకొని, శ్రీ స్వామికి ముమ్మారు ప్రక్షినము చేసి ప్రశాంతముగా నిష్క్రమించెను.

దత్తభక్తులకు అన్నము పెట్టుట వలన కలుగు ఫలము

శ్రీ పళనిస్వామి యీ విధముగా సెలవిచ్చిరి. "ఈ పాము గత జన్మము నందు స్త్రీ. ఆమె వృద్ధురాలయ్యెను. ఆమె కొంత పాపమును, కొంత పుణ్యమును చేసి యుండెను. ఒక పర్యాయము దత్త భక్తుడైన ఒక బ్రాహ్మణునకు ఆమె అన్నము పెట్టెను. దత్తుడు చాలా సులభముగా ప్రసంనమగు తత్త్వము గలవాడు. ఈమె మరణించిన తరువాత యమలోకమునకు పోయెను. యమధర్మమునకు పోయెను. యమధర్మరాజు యీమెనిట్లు ప్రశ్నించెను.

Shankar Bhatt reaches Tirupathi Meets Tirumala Das in Kanipakam

Removal of Sani effect on Shankar Bhatt by the grace of Sripada

During my journey I came to the most sacred Tirupathi kshetram. I experienced some unknown peace in my mind. I took bath in ‘Pushkarini’ and had darshan of Sri Venkateswara. I was immersed in dhyana in the temple premises. In dhyana I found Sri Venkateswara was in a female form. That form looked like Bala Tripura Sundari and it changed into ‘Parameswara’ form in a few seconds. After some time it changed into the form of ‘Maha Vishnu’. After doing dhyana for some time, that deity took the form of an extremely beautiful 16 years old ‘child monk’. His looks were nectarine. From his two eyes affection of crores of mothers was emanating. 

Sripada Srivallabha Swamy At Tirupati

Meanwhile one black ugly person came to that young monk and said, ‘Sripada Srivallabha Prabhu! You are the controller of the universe. ‘Elinati Sani’ (the effect of planet Saturn) has started from today for your devotee ‘Shankar Bhatt’. I will make him suffer from all sorts of difficulties in this world. I am waiting for  your orders.’ Sripada Prabhu who is most graceful in heart said, ‘Shaneeswar! You make people do karmas (actions). Making them experience the effect of karma, you are liberating them from ‘karmas’. 

You proceed according to your dharma. My promise is to protect devotees who surrender to me. You will see how I will come to his rescue and liberate him from the troubles you create.’ After they talked like this, both Sripada and Saneeswara disappeared from my ‘dhyana’. After that, I could not concentrate on Bhagawan. I understood that my bad period had started and Sripada would sail me across those difficulties. From Tirumala, I came down to Tirupathi.

                            Sripada and Saneeswara

I was moving in Tirupathi streets as I liked. My mind was disturbed. One barber forcibly stopped me and said fiercely, ‘Are you Subbaiah, who ran from the house twenty years ago? Your parents are worried. Your wife became mature. You live with her and be happy with children.’ Then I said, ‘Sir! I am Shankar Bhatt and a Brahmin belonging to Kannada region. I am a traveller. I have been going to sacred places. I am a devotee of Datta. Having heard that Datta Prabhu has manifested as Sripada Srivallabha, I am going to Kurungadda for His darshan. I am promising on the most sacred Gayathri. I am a ‘Brahmachari’. I am not the barber Subbaiah as you think.’

He was not listening to me. Many people gathered there. Every one was blaming me in a different way. I was taken to Subbaiah’s house. Subbaiah’s parents thought that I was Subbaiah only and requested me in a number of ways and told me not to leave them and it was a great sin to leave wife who had become mature. One of them said, ‘Subbaiah has become dirty with moustache and beard. If we shave him his old shining comes.’ Even though I told them a number of times that I

was not Subbaiah, they forcibly tonsured me. They shaved my hair on the head neatly and removed my moustache and beard also. They removed my sacred thread (yajnopaveetham) also. They brought one sorcerer for my sake. He was dressed in a very strange and peculiar way. I was feeling as if there was a cut in my heart seeing his fierce looks. They tied me and made a cut on my head with knife. They poured lime juice and other juices on the cut wound. I was suffering with unbearable pain. They came to a conclusion that, after I left the house I was possessed by a Brahmin ghost and that was the reason why I was wearing the sacred thread and chanting mantras. The Brahmin community in Tirupathi also did not come to my rescue. 

They also thought that the traveler who came to the town was Subbaiah only and he was possessed by a Brahma Rakshasa. When I was taken to the Brahmin elders in the town, I told them that I was a smarta Brahmin from Kannada region, I belonged to Bharadwaja gothra, I also knew Namakam and Chamakam, and I did ‘Sandhya Vandan’ daily. Those Brahmin elders did not believe what I said and told them that one Kannada Brahmin became a ghost and possessed him and so they should give him proper treatment and make him normal.

I became unconscious with pain due to the wounds. My wailing became a wailing in the jungle. When I became conscious, I saw a black ugly person resembling me exactly and sitting in front of me. Without speaking anything, he merged into me and became one with me. I realized in my mind that my fate was disturbed under the influence of ‘Elinati Sani’, that the next 7-1/2 years would be very difficult and only Sripada Srivallabha would be able to save me.

Even with that great pain, I was chanting Sripada Srivallabha’s name. As I was chanting, my pain was coming down. The sorcerer was continuing to sacrifice chicken and goats and was doing strange worships. I was being given a special restricted diet. The sorcerer decided that I should be given only vegetarian diet as Subbaiah was possessed by a Brahmin ghost. I was afraid that they might force me to eat meat. But by the grace of Sripada I was given only vegetarian diet, so I was consoled in my mind to some extent. I suffered intense pain for three days. As I did not forget to chant Sricharana’s name even in that hell like pain, I was not feeling the experience of pain from fourth day onwards.

 Many different and strange experiments were being done on my body. The sorcerer was hitting me with a whip. I trembled and cried ‘Srivallabha! Save me! Save me! How can one suffer the hell like pains when surrendered to Sri Datta Prabhu with stable devotion?’ At that moment, some wonderful thing happened. Even when the whip was beating me, I was not experiencing any pain. But the sorcerer trembled. He could not understand why he was feeling the pain of whip lashes when he was hitting me. He was looking at me with horror. I smiled noticing Sri Charana’s divine ‘leela’.

 Even though I was eating restricted salt free diet, it was very tasty to me. I started eating to my full satisfaction. I was eating the food thinking that it was the graceful ‘prasad’ of Sripada. But the sorcerer, though he was eating chicken and mutton, saw it as poisonous food. His health was deteriorating. Then he stopped hurting me and was spending time with ‘mantras’ and

‘worships’. On the fifth day of starting the treatment to me, his house got burnt. Though they did  not start the fire, it got created on its own and within no time, the house was burnt to ashes. On the sixth day he came to Subbaiah’s house with a pitiful face and said, ‘The Brahmin ghost, which has possessed Subbaiah, is a sorcerer. Because I tried to treat him, he burnt my house by using mantras. So to propitiate ‘Bhetala’ and many kshudra shaktis, we have to do many rituals and for that we need a lot of money.’ I knew that by doing treatment, there was no use and the sorcerer was suggesting many rituals with a desire for money. I thought ‘If I bow to the fate and accept Subbaiah’s wife as my wife, that will be most unfortunate and there is no worse deceit than that.’ I was feeling as if my heart was being cut with a saw, not knowing why the fate was playing with my life in such a cruel way. 

I told the parents of Subbaiah, ‘Father and Mother! Don’t come under the illusive influence of that sorcerer selling away all your movable and immovable properties. My health is alright. I am thinking you as my parents only.’ Then I was released from the torture of the sorcerer. Subbaiah’s parents were extremely happy. Seeing the happiness in them, my eyes became wet. Because any woman is equal to mother, I prayed to Sripada in my mind pitifully to save me from falling from the path of dharma.

On the seventh day after my treatment started, I looked at the wife of Subbaiah who was serving me and said, ‘what do you think about me? Do you believe that I am really Subbaiah?’ She said, ‘I was married to him when I was two years old. Now my age is 22. Only ‘Parameswar’ knows whether you are my husband or not. No man can be quiet seeing his wife in youth. Even though you suffered so much, you did not treat me as your wife. You did not even touch me. This is possible only for people with ‘high’ samskaara. I do not have any opinion about you. I want to live according to dharma in accordance with the tradition of our caste. If you are my husband, don’t leave this servant of your feet. Otherwise, as 20 years elapsed after my husband left the house and as I was married at an age when I did not know anything, you can accept me as your wife. I will follow your foot-steps. Who is Sripada Vallabha whom you always remember? If he is a sadguru, I will also pray to him to show a righteous solution to this difficult problem.’

It appeared that her argument was genuine. I said ‘Sripada Srivallabha is indeed Sri Dattatreya. He is born in this ‘kali yugam’. At present he is staying at Kuruvapuram. He behaves according to our feelings. If we think He is a sadguru, He will give us the feeling of sadguru. If we think Him as ‘Paramatma’ he will prove Himself as Paramatma. It is better if you also chant the name of Sripada Srivallabha. Definitely a way will be shown and a solution will be found acceptable to all.’

On that day a ‘Mala Jangama’ had come there. He had treatises written on palm leaves. Within a short time, he became dear to all people in that locality. He was telling the past, present and future of all people coming to him wonderfully. He was telling them that the palm leaf treatises

he had were known as ‘Nadee Grandhas’ and it was also called Ramala Shastram and the things written in that would happen without fail. On the request of Subbaiah’s parents he came to their house also. He gave me few shells and asked me to drop them on the floor. He did some calculations and took out one leaf from the palm leaf book and read. ‘The person who put the question is a Kannada Brahmin called Shankar Bhatt. He will write ‘charitra’ of Sripada Srivallabha who is manifestation of Lord Datta. In his previous birth, he and another person were born in a village called Mogalicherla, near Kandukur town. They were interested very much in betting. There was a famous ‘self manifested Datta’ temple in that village. This man was born as the brother of the priest in that temple. He used to do the worship in temple when his elder brother was not in the village. In the premises of Datta temple, he used to play betting plays. 

This was a very bad thing. One day he played with his friend with a strange betting rule. If his friend won, he would give him the money promised. If he himself won, his friend should surrender his wife to him. Datta Prabhu was the witness for this. They took oath to that affect and played.

Datta Prabhu was watching those extremely objectionable things that were happening in His presence. Shankar Bhatt won the game. His friend refused to give his wife to him. The quarrel was brought to the elders in the village. The caste elders assembled and decided that it was an unpardonable act that was done in the presence of Datta Prabhu. They ruled ‘As this man tried to possess his friend’s wife in this way, hot oil should be poured on his head. As his friend put his wife as bet in this play, he should be made impotent by cutting of his genital organs. After giving punishment to them, both should be thrown out of that village.’ Then they implemented their resolution. Shankar Bhatt will be reborn and become a devotee because he did Datta worship for some time in his previous birth.

 His friend will be born in Tirupathi in a barber’s house with in the name Subbaiah and with a disturbed mind, he will become mad and after marriage he will run away. As Subbaiah’s wife is innocent, her devotion towards her husband is strong and with that effect, Subbaiah’s disturbed mind will cool down and he will come back one day after hearing this ‘Ramala Sastram’. On that day Shankar Bhatt will be released.

Ramala sastram

‘By the grace of Sripada Srivallabha, the ‘Elinati Sani’ influencing Shankar Bhatt will be over in 7-1/2 days after suffering some physical pains. People who say untruth and resort to ‘adharma’ taking oath in the name of God, will be severely punished by Datta Prabhu. To annul the mind disturbance of Subbaiah, some merit was debited from Shankar Bhatt’s account by Chitra Gupta. Jeevas should understand the truth that the effect of karma will be working subtly and they should do only good acts and avoid doing bad acts. Sripada Srivallabha’s horoscope will come to Peethikapuram by a Jain named Akshay Kumar from Tripura desam some centuries after His avathar ends.’ Before that, a book named Sripada Srivallabha Charithamrutham which tells about the leelas of Srivallabha will come into light.

How can I describe the grace of Sripada Srivallabha? On the next day Subbaiah came to his house. His mind had become quiet and he became healthy. I treated Subbaiah’s wife as my sister. I took leave from Subbaiah’s parents and reached a village named ‘Kanipakam’ in Chittoor mandalam. The Kanipakam village is not far from Chittoor. There are Sri Varadaraja Swami temple, Sri Manikantheswar temple and Sri Varasiddhi Vinayaka temple in that village. 

I had darshan of Varasiddhi Vinayaka and came out. There was a tall dog standing there. I was afraid and went back into the temple. For sometime, I meditated on God and came out. There was one more dog of the same size with that first dog. I was afraid that it was certain that I would be bitten by those ‘Kala Bhiravas’ on that day. Again I went inside the Varasiddhi Vinayak temple. The temple priest saw my strange behavior and asked me, ‘Sir! You are repeatedly going out and coming in. What’s the matter?’ I told him about my fear. 

Then the priest said, ‘they will not harm anyone without reason. They are the dogs that stay with a washerman. That washerman is a Datta devotee. He says that Datta Prabhu has manifested on earth as Sripada Srivallabha. Though there is no restriction for entry of washermen into the temple, he will not come into the temple. He will send his dogs. I will tie swami’s ‘prasad’ in a cloth and give it to them. They take it and give it to the washerman.

 You said you saw two dogs. Only when four dogs come, I will give ‘prasad’. Let us see if the other two dogs also have come.’ When we came out, there were four dogs. The priest gave the bundle of ‘prasad’ to them. Those four dogs surrounded me on my four sides. The priest said, ‘In accordance with the wish of those dogs, you go to that washerman. You will have auspiciousness.’

I learnt that the incidents in my life were happening on the direction of Srivallabha. By the happenings at Subbaiah’s house, I felt that one should not give much importance to the differences in caste and religion. A ‘chandala’ can be born as a Brahmin in the next birth. A Brahmin can be born as ‘chandala’. I learnt that a ‘jeeva’ will be carrying his sins and merits along with him and will be falling in to the stream of karma for endless births.

The talk between Shankar Bhatt and Tirumala Das

As told by the priest I went to the place where that washerman lived. That washerman whose name was Tirumala Das was a seventy year old man. He came out of his hut and with due respect made me sit on a cot. Most of my ego of birth as a Brahmin, perished. All devotees of Sripada Srivallabha appeared to me as my own people. Tirumala Das gave me the ‘prasad’ of Varasiddhi Vinayaka. I took it as the ‘Prasad’ of Sripada Srivallabha and ate it. Tirumala Das started telling me like this.

Manifestation of Ayinavilli Ganapathi as Sripada Srivallabha

“Sir, Today is an auspicious day. I have the fortune of your darshan. I was very much eager when you would come here and when I would be telling you the special incidents that happened in Malyadripuram and Peethikapuram. My Dear! Shankar Bhatt! You ate the ‘prasad’ of Varasiddi

                        Ayinavilli Ganapathi

Vinayaka. You start writing ‘Sripada Srivallabha Charitamrutham’. You will get the blessings of Srivallabha in Kuruvapuram. I was a great Vedic pundit in my previous birth. I was a great miser also. At the time of death I saw one newly born calf of cow eating a small soiled cloth piece and told my sons to take it from the calf and keep it in safe. Because I kept my looks on a soiled cloth at the time of death, I got birth as a washerman. On whatever thing the mind gets concentrated at the time of death, one will get the next birth accordingly. 

Because of the merit in my previous birth I was born in a village called Malyadripuram of Palanadu area in Garthapuri (Guntur) Mandalam. The same Malyadripuram had become Malladi village in due course. There were two houses in that village whose surname was Malladi. One was a great pundit by name Malladi Bapannavadhanulu. He belonged to ‘Harithasa’ gothram. The second one was another great pundit by name Malladi Sridhara Avadhanulu. He belonged to ‘Kousikasa’ gothram.

Sridhara avadhani’s sister Rajamamba was given in marriage to Bapannavadhanulu. Both of them were great pundits. Both came to Ayinavilli village in Godavari Mandalam to perform ‘swarna ganapathi maha yajnam’. Some pundits argued that Ganapati should manifest with golden glow at the end and take the ‘poorna ahuthi’ (the last offering in yajna) with his trunk. Both the great pundits who were performing that Maha Yajna took oath that they would perform the yajna in accordance with Vedic guidelines and they would make Ganapathi manifest. At the end of the ‘yajnam’, Ganapathi manifested Himself with golden glow, took the poorna ahuthi with his trunk, and promised that he would be soon born as Sripada Srivallabha with all kalaas on the day of Ganesh Chaturdhi. Everybody who attended the ‘yajnam’, was stunned. There were three atheists in the crowd. They said that whatever appeared was only a great magic but it was not Ganapthi. If He was Ganapathi, He should give darshan again.

The greatness of Kanipakam Vinayaka

Then the homa bhasmam in the Homagundam took the form of a man. Then it changed into the form of Maha Ganapathi. That Mana Ganapathi form said, ‘Fools! Siva before killing Tripurasura, Vishnu Murthi before conquering Bali Chakravarthi, Parvathi Devi before killing Mahisasura, Adi Sesha before bearing the weight of earth, Sidda Munis before getting all Siddhis, Manmadha for the purpose of conquering the whole world, and Gods to fulfill their desires, worshipped me. I am the one source of all powers. I am the most powerful. All the powers of Gods and demons are in me. I am the one who creates all obstacles. I am the one who removes all obstacles. Who do you think Dattatreya is? He is the Dharma Sasta, the son of Hari and Hara. 

That was the Datta form where Brahma and Rudra merged in Vishnu. Ganapathi and Shanmukha also merged in the Dharma Sasta form. Know that Datta is all the three murthis merged. As an indication that Mahaganapathi is there in Sripada Srivallabha, He will be born on the day of Ganesh Chaturdhi. Because of the Subrahmanya tatwam, know that His manifestation is ‘Jnanaavatharam’. Because of Dharma Sasta

tatwam, know that it is the beginning and source of all righteous acts. His manifestation will not be the result of union of mother and father. Jyothi will take the form of a man.

Now I am giving you a curse. Even though you have seen the truth, you lied. So one of you will be born as a blind person. Instead of praising the truth with words, you rediculed it. So another one of you will be born as a dumb fellow. Even though many truthful people were talking about ‘truth’, you did not hear it. So the third one will be born as a deaf person. All three of you will be born as brothers and after seeing my ‘Swayambhu Murthi’, you become sinless.’

‘My Dear! Those three people were born in Kanipuram as brothers. Many misfortunes will come, if one scolds Trimurthis and Sri Datta who is embodiment of Thrimurthis. Those three  brothers were tilling the soil bought with a ‘kani’ (a denomination of currency equal to 1/64th part of a rupee). In that field, there was a stepped well. They used to draw water from the well with the help of a lever and a bucket attached to it and wet the fields. One year there was a severe draught. The ground water receded. One day when the whole water was exhausted, they started digging the soil with a spade. The spade hit a stone under the water and blood spilled. When his hand touched the blood, the dumb fellow started talking. Water was filling the well as usual. With the touch of water the sin of the deaf person vanished and he started hearing. The third person who was blind touched the stone under the water and he gained his vision. That stone was the “Murthi of Swayambhu Vinayaka”. Because the spade hit the stone idol, blood started coming from the place of dent in the idol.

To install Varasiddhi Vinayaka, Bapannavadhanulu also known as ‘Satya Risheeswara’ and his brother-in-law Sridhara Avadhanulu came to this village. Varasiddhi Vinayaka told them, ‘I have come from Maha Bhumi into this world. I have manifested in ‘Pridhwi Tatwam’ (earth). This ‘Tatwam’ will have many changes in course of time. My manifestation in Jala Tatwam (water), Agni Tatwam (fire), Vayu Tatwam (air), and Akasa Tatwam (sky) had already come previously. The homa bhasmam from the maha yajnam which you did in ‘Ayinavilli’ has taken this form. I am telling you what is to be done next. The ‘Kalaas’ in Srisailam have been reduced. You have to do the ‘Shaktipaatham’ from the ‘Tejas’ present in Surya Mandalam. At the same time, because of my special grace, Shaktipaatham will be done in Kasi, Badri and Kedaram also. The time is nearing for the manifestation of Sripada Srivallabha. Sridhara! I am changing your surname as ‘Sripada’. Your descendents belonging to ‘Kousikasa’ gothram will be known with ‘Sripada’ surname.’

The washerman Tirumala Das told Shankar Bhatt! ‘My Dear! Shankar! Bapannavadhanulu and Sridhara Avadhanulu migrated from Malyadripuram to Peethikapuram. I had seen Sripada Srivallabha childhood leelas in plenty. Tomorrow I will tell you all of them in detail. I had a son from my first wife. He is Ravidas and lives in Kuruvapuram only. He is serving Sripada appropriately. On

the orders of Sripada, I remained in Kanipuram with my second wife and children and am living by doing my caste vocation.

“You will meet many great people in Sri Peethikapuram. You will know many great things, if you meet Venkatappayya Shreshti, a great vysya. Sripada used to call him in a different name Venkayyappa Shreshti. Sripada’s benediction hand protects the family of Shreshti. You also meet Narasimha Varma with surname Vatsavayi. He has a great attachment to Sripada. Sricharana will bless the ‘Sripada Srivallabha Charithra’ that you will write. Except the book you write, none other thing will tell Sripada’s story comprehensively. This is the order of Sricharana.”

Sripada srivallabha

Darshan of Vasavambika to Palani Swami in Kuruvapuram
According to the orders of Palaniswami, all three of us decided to do ‘dhyana’. Palaniswami said, “My Dear Madhav! My Dear Shankar! All three of us will go into ‘dhyana’. Later we will discuss about the dhyana experiences. As this is the order of Srivallabha, we will definitely have the experience of some spiritual turning point in future. In future, the Christian calender will be in use. According to Christian calender, today is 25-5-1336, Friday. This is a great day with complete auspicious good fortune. This day is very important in our life. I will keep my gross body here and go to Kuruvapuram with subtle body. It is a childhood play for me to roam at four or five different places at the same time with my subtle body. Let us be all in ‘dhyana’ contemplating on Sripada Srivallabha. Once I receive His permission, I will go to Kuruvapuram with my subtle body.”

The way of receiving Swami’s Grace

After hearing Panaliswami’s words, I felt strange and asked, ‘Swami, Madhav had seen the divine auspicious form of Sripada Srivallabha. You always have contact with Him in subtle planes. But I know His name only but have not seen His form. How can I contemplate on Him?’ Palaniswami replied, ‘My Dear! If one has devotion in Sripada every thing will be accomplished. The tortoise will protect its offspring with the vibrations of its thoughts, however far it may be from it. The cat will shift its offspring from one house to the other holding in its month. It keeps them in a place which it thinks is the safest. Similarly Sripada will rule His devotees with the ‘Tortoise-offspring’ justice. 

After advancing to some extent, He will rule them with ‘cat-offspring’ justice. Later they will be ruled with ‘monkey-offspring’ justice initially. Here there is the necessity of the offspring to hold on to its mother with effort. After some more advancement, the devotees behave like the small fish which roam freely behind their mother wherever it goes. When you sit for ‘dhyana’, He Himself will give you the fortune of His darshan. 

    small fish which roam freely behind their mother 

Srivallabha decided on a very important matter related to the future on this great day and asked me to come to Kuruvapuram in subtle form. I will go to Kuruvapuram the moment when I get His order. Some great event is going to happen there. Sri Datta Prabhu gave me the great opportunity to witness that. Saying so, he got immersed in ‘dhyana’. Then myself and Madhav also went into ‘dhyana’.
The dhyana went on for ten hours. 

All of us strangely became conscious of external surroundings at the same time. After dhyana, Palani Swami looked very much happy. Myself and Madhav prayed him to tell us his ‘dhyana experience’. Smiling, he said like this.
Siva Sharma’s Story – The result of thinking of Sripada Srivallabha

“How much fortunate are the people in this kali yugam? The village Kuruvapuram is a small one. Even then, noticing the greatness of Sripada one pious Brahmin and Veda Pundit by name Siva Sarma was living with his wife Ambika in Kuruvapuram only. Theirs was the only Brahmin family in Kuruvapuram. Every day he used to cross the river from the island, earn money by doing things suitable for Brahmins and come back to Kuruvapuram. He was from the ‘kasyapa’ lineage (gothra). He was a great scholar and an austere Brahmin and followed Yajurveda. Siva Sharma’s children used to die immediately after birth. 

At last, one son survived. Unfortunately he became a dull headed person with poor intellect. Siva Sharma became emaciated thinking of that useless child. One day in the presence of Srivallabha he chanted Veda and stood there silently. Sri Swami noticing the cause for his sorrow, smiled and said, ‘Siva Sharma! Forgetting other things, if anybody contemplates on me, I will become his servant. Tell me if you have any desire. Siva Sharma said, ‘Swami, My son became a dull headed person. Being omnipotent, it is not difficult for you to make him a pundit and a useful person. Then it is your wish.‘Sripada said, ‘My Dear! Nobody can escape the fruits of his past deeds. The whole creation is running in accordance with an insurmountable law. A woman will get a husband as the fruit of her worship. She gets children as a fruit of ‘donation’. Always donation should be given to an eligible person. By donating to unsuitable people one will get bad results. 

If a person with a good nature is given food, part of the merit coming from his good deeds will go to the person giving food. If a person with a bad nature is given food, a part of the sin coming from his bad deeds will go to the person giving food. While donating, one should not have any ego. Then only it gives good results.

 As a result of your deeds in the past birth, you had a dull headed son. You, wife and husband asked for a son having full life term and not one having a short span of life. To make him a suitable scholar by destroying his previous life sins, you will have to sacrifice your life according to the rule of karma. Then I will make him a worthy scholar.’ Siva Sharma said, ‘Swami, I have entered the old age. I am ready to sacrifice my life. What else do I want if my son becomes a pundit like Brihaspathi and an orator’? Then the omnipotent Sricharana told him. You will die soon. After death, you will go with subtle body to Dheesila Nagaram and stay in ‘tapas’ in the underground cave at the foot of Neem tree for some time. After that, you will be born in meritorious Maratha land. Do not let your wife know all this’.
Revealing of Sripada Srivallabha’s future birth

Siva Sharma died soon. Ambika used to beg along with his son and live. There was no dearth of ridicule from the neighbours. That useless Brahmin boy could not tolerate the insults and started running towards the river to commit suicide. His helpless mother also ran behind him to commit suicide. As a fruit of their previous birth’s merit, Sripada appeared to them on the way and saved them from committing suicide. By mere will, He made that foolish boy a great scholar. He told

Ambika to spend the rest of her life in ‘Siva’ worship. He told her the result of doing Siva worship in the pradosha time (at the time of sunset) on Saturdays. He gave her a boon that she would have a child equal to Him in her next birth. As there was no one who was equal to Him, He decided to take birth as their son. My Dear! This Sri Charana’s wonderful leela happened in my presence on 25-5- 1336 Friday.
Vasavi’s manifestation and Her Story

Fortunately, I took to bath in Krishna River along with Sripada Prabhu. After bath, Sripada created ‘yogagni’ with his Atma shakthi. In that yogagni, Kanyakamba manifested with a wonderful Agni like complexion. For many days I tried to have darshan of Vasavi Kanyakamba, the sister of Sripada Srivallabha. 

But for some unknown reason, she was not giving me darshan. I prostrated myself at the feat of Amika. A smiling Srivallabha was looking very pleased. Sri Vasavi matha resembled exactly Srivallabha. Anyone who sees them will think that they both are twins.

Vasavi mata & virupaksha

‘In that great ‘kshetra’ (a sacred place) of Kuruvapuram, Sripada, Vasavee matha and myself were there. Srivallabha’s ‘yoga leelas’ are endless. I was wondering in my mind where the Dhee Sila Nagaram was and how it was possible for the dead Siva Sharma to do ‘Tapas’ with only subtle body. Srivallabha said, “There is no limit for ‘Yoga Shakti’. The yogic paths of Datta Prabhu are very strange, ever new, unheard of before and unthinkable.’

After some time, a couple manifested with divine glow from that ‘yogagni’. Sri Vallabha told me that they were the father and mother of Sri Vasavi matha named Kusuma Shreshti and Kousumbi. Sri Vasavi matha was in dhyana mudra for some time. From the yogagni generated by Sripada Srivallabha, Sri Nagareswara Swami manifested. After that, the brother of Sri Vasavi matha ‘Viroopaksha’ and the ‘Gomathas’ belonging to 102 Gothras, who did ‘agni pravesham’, emerged from yogagni. Srivallabha said pleasingly, ‘Viroopaksha was born with the ‘amsa’ of Nandeeswar and I put my ‘amsa’ also in him.

‘My maternal grandfather Sri Bapannavadhanulu, who invoked the power from ‘surya mandalam’ into the Srisaila Mallikharjuna Lingam, lived in his previous birth in Brihat sila Nagaram as Raja guru with the name of ‘Bhaskara’. He was born as ‘amsa’ of Brahmadeva. On the day of pournima (full moon day) in the month of Shravan, I will definitely come to Brihat sila Nagaram. My sister Sri Vasavi Kanyakamba will tie ‘Rakhee’ to my hand. 

Vasavi maa  tied Rakhi to sripada srivallabha

My Dear Palani! My deeds, plays and great events cannot be done by anybody. Nobody can imitate them. Nobody can get My power. As the fruit of your intense penance, you could have the darshan of siddha vysyas, Vasavi matha and our parents Kusuma Shreshti and Kousumbi. Now this Kuruvapuram is going to become a big  palace, Look!’

Wonderful! Surprising! A great King’s palace was created by mere will. We were all seated in simhasanas studded with diamonds.

Sri Charana said, ‘Gomathas belong to 714 gothras. The couple who entered ‘agni’ along with Ambika belonged to 102 gothras only, In the times of Swarochisha Manu, there were 18 towns devoted to Lord Eswar, the most important one being Brihit Sila Nagaram. If anyone of you who are devotees of Datta, has darshan of Ambika, Nagareswar and other Gods in Brihat Sila Nagaram, you will get special merit. Wherever Datta’s name is chanted, Vasavee Matha will live there incongnito. She will fulfill the desires. 

Wherever Vasavee Kanyakamba’s name is remembered, there Datta will live incognito. With small effort great merit is granted. In Kruta Yugam, people were following truth and were siddhas. In Treta Yugam sacrifies like yajnas and yagas were in vogue. In Dwapara  yugam, Mantra shastram was prevalent. In this Kali yugam, Tantra shastram is given special importance ‘Tantram’ means spreading the chaitanyam (dynamism). The root cause of this entire creation is My self.

 All the thirty three crore Gods, all the living beings, and endless crores of worlds are within Me and because of Myself they become dynamic and because of My presence, will have different kinds of powers. The ultimate refuge of all the rivers is the ocean. Whichever God is worshipped, the worship reaches Me. If I am worshipped, one will get the fruit of worshipping all Gods. The worlds which manifest coming out of My ‘Parabrahma’ tatwam, are My images only. The thing, coming out of My ‘Parabrahma tatwam’ as universe, is My image only. There is no difference between me and my image. The thing in the form of Adi Parashakti is Myself only. The ‘Paratatwam’ is beyond the male/female forms. When I am in the form of man, I am called Datta. When I am in the form of woman, I am called ‘Adi Para Shakti’. That is why the Vedic scholars said, ‘Srikrishna Syamala Devi and Sri Ramo Lalithambika’. The rays emanating from My gross form will make sacred the places where I move. My subtle body will be pervading the whole earth. My casual body will be pervading crores and crores of universes. My Maha casual body is in the form of ‘Sat-Chit-Ananda’. It remains in rest immersed in ‘Brahmananda’. In all these four states, My consciousness works at the same time. No one can get Me through any type of Japa and Tapa or Yogic practices or any  other method. One can get Me only through My special grace. Those sacred people also, who had merged in me, will have to take birth with gross bodies on different occasions according to My will and perform My tasks.

The Nature of Parabrahma

Anagha Laxmi, who is the combined form of three Shakti’s (Maha Kaali, Maha Lakshmi, and Maha Saraswathi) is My ‘shakti’ form. She is in the left half of My body. And in the right half of My body, My Trimurthi form is there, which is the combined form of the three ‘gunas’ (qualities). All this creation is present inside Me. Creation, protection, amalgamation, retreat and gracefulness all keep happening relentlessly. Every particle is the solidified form of letters. All the letters have vibrations

and they are all ‘mantras’. This form of ‘sound’, which has vibration, is the form of Maha Saraswathi. The power solidified is the form of Maha Lakshmi. The power embedded in that is the form of Maha Kali. If I am ‘Shakti’ (power) now, I will be the ‘Shakta’ (the bearer of Shakti) the next moment. Jaganmatha is the symbol of endless compassion and Jagatpitha is the symbol of divine justice  which is very hard. My fatherly form decides and strictly implements the inevitable consequences of ‘karmas’. My motherly form will show compassion and pity on devotees who have surrendered to me. Even if the child does a great mistake, mother takes it as a small one. Even if a small good deed is done, mother will give great fruit in return. Learn that I am the father, mother and guru for all this creation. I decided to remove the doubt lingering in your mind. You are doubting, how Vasavi has become My sister.

 Previously when I was born to Atri and Anasuya, while Anasuya was swinging me in the swing, she thought, “all are male children only. Not even one girl child was born with the cute features of Datta.’ As she was a great ‘pathi vratha’ (one who follows her husband by mind, word and deed) and her desire was very intense, it materialized immediately. When the swing moved to one side, the form of Datta was seen and when the swing returned, the form of Vasavi was seen by her. While she was wondering whether it was a dream or Vaishnava maya, Atri Maharshi came and said, “Anasuya! After doing hard ‘Tapas’ to know the real form which was the source of Thri Murthis with the three qualities, we could have Datta as our child. I realized that this was the ‘Guru’ form which was the source of the three Murthis. This indeed is the form of ‘Srimannarayana’. When the same form takes the female form, it becomes ‘Kanyaka’ form which is Adiparashakti. 

They both had been brother and sister from the beginning of creation.” Oh! What a wonder? Then he was immersed in dhyana and saw my form as the ‘concentrated consciousness’. He also saw that was the form of Ambika also. He also understood that, it was decided by me that before manifesting as Sripada Srivallabha, I should come as ‘yoga maya’ and take the form of Vasavi Kanyaka. On the request of Atri and Anasuya, our forms got separated and Ambika tied ‘Rakhee’ to me. The form which was born as Datta to Atri and Anasuya is the same Sripada Srivallabha in Kali Yugam. 

This form, existing before the manifestation of all the other forms of Datta, will be hidden. The form of Adipara Shakti existing before all her other manifestations, is the same as Vasavi Kanyakamba form. So that form also is hidden in ‘Agnitatwam’. The dharma of man and the dharma of God are different. To see this auspicious form of Ambika, one should earn great (maha) merit. There is a reason to call all of you here today. My form, being endless supreme consciousness is not bound in any form or name. I decided to stay in a still form like the limitless dynamic ocean having no waves. There is no difference to me whether I am in a form or without form. So, I decided to hide this form today itself. Amma! Vasavee! Let me know your wish and opinion.’ I felt unhappy to see Sripada’s form being hidden so early. Vasavee Matha in the divine auspicious form looked at Srivallabha with praying looks and said, “My most revered brother! As there is no difference in being formless or with dynamic vibrant form, you remain in this Sripada Srivallabha form for some more time and then you

can hide it. Have mercy on real sadhakas so that they will be able to see this divine auspicious form. Without having differences between places and times, keep this form hidden from the gross looks. If you want to take avathar again you can take a new form and body. In that case, if you wish, you can show grace on your devotees from samadhi when that body rests in samadhi.’ For that Sripada replied like this.
The decision to take birth as Nrisimha Saraswathi

“Oh! Vasavambica! The embodiment of all auspicious qualities! Let your desire become true. I will remain in this Sripada Srivallabha form for 14 more years i.e. when this body comes to 30 years of age and then I will hide this form. Again, to uplift the ‘Sanyasa dharma’, I will take the name of Nrisimha Saraswathi and be in that avathar upto 80 years of age. Later I will be in ‘Taponishta’ in ‘kadalivanam’ for three hundred years and manifest in ‘prajna puram’ with the name of ‘Swami Samardha’ and end my avathar. I will make people follow the righteous path by showing leelas and mahimas (great acts) in the form of Avadhootas and sidha purushas with my divine ‘kalaas’.”

Naming of a foreigner by Swami and His grace on him

After remaining in dhyana for some moments, He called Virupaksha and said “My Dear ! Virupaksha! One white man from Germany reached Kurungadda overcoming many difficulties for my darshan. This golden divine palace cannot be seen by others. So he is searching for me. You go and bring him here.” I wondered how a white man could come to this difficult place. Virupaksha brought that white man. He became extremely happy with the darshan of Sripada Srivallabha. He held Sricharana’s feet and cried heavily. Sripada lifted him up. The nectar of grace was showering from His eyes. Sricharana’s form had in it the limitless power and limitless love. His heart had the love of one crore mothers. Srivallabha addressed him as ‘John’. He looked into John’s eyes with piercing looks. It appeared that He was giving him initiation through eyes. After sometime, He touched  John’s forehead between the eye brows. With that sacred touch, he had a divine ecstatic pleasure. 

Sripada Srivallbha

Then Swami told all those present there to look into the sky. In the sky one big number appeared with divine glow in ‘Dev Nagara’ type. He said that it was the ‘Jnana Number’ of Sri Chitra Gupta. Sri Charana said that the number would become most important in the future centuries. The number is 170141183460469231731687303715884105727. Sripada said ‘This is the number of the universe. The meaning and the inner meaning of this number will be understood by people who try to understand the nature of ‘padartha’ (the matter) according to the levels of their intellectual state.’

Sripada was talking in Telugu. But John understood it. John was questioning in German language. Sripada was answering him in Telugu. What a wonderful thing! In the vicinity of Sripada, every moment was filled with His ‘leelas’ and ‘mahimas’.

All the knowledge and scholarship are at the feet of Sricharana. Sricharana said “when I was speaking in ‘Trilinga language’ (telugu), John understood it in ‘German language’. Each word I spoke was being translated into German and John was able to hear. There is nothing which I cannot do for the sake of my devotees. There is nothing, which I cannot lift or there is no problem which I cannot solve for them. People, who believe me by mind, action and speech, leaving all other dharmas behind, are really blessed people. When my grace is flowing on you, all the other Shaktis in this nature give positive auspicious vibrations. You can take it as my promise. There is nothing which I cannot get in all these fourteen ‘Bhuvanas’. Even if you are following your own righteous path, if you remember My name, I will protect you like the eye lid to the eye. I am the embodiment of love. You will know Me through love only.

Druva Star

The star Dhruva is important for the constellation of sapta rishis. Leant how Dhruva got Dhruva ‘padam’ (position). He did ‘Tapas’ for Srimannarayana with a wish to sit in his father’s lap. After having darshan of Srimannarayana, he lost the desire to sit in the lap of his mortal father. Srimannarayana gave him the place of ‘Dhruva Padam’. He also made him sit in His lap. Jagat Prabhu (The Lord of Universe) graced him by giving His lap to sit when the child actually desired deeply to sit in his mortal father’s lap.
In Kaliyugam, Dhruva is Yesu Prabhu

In Kaliyugam, Dhruva took birth as ‘Yesu Prabhu’. He believed that God was his father. I will grace you in the same thought in which you worship me. Sri Vasavi Kanyakamba gave Her power to ‘Marie’ the ‘sacred soul’ (pavitra atma). Dhruva was born as ‘Yesu prabhu’ to ‘Marie’ even when she was a virgin. Jesus Christ was not born by the union of father and mother. Learn that Jesus Christ called Srimannarayana only as his father repeatedly. 

Jesus Christ

Srimannarayana is none other than Sripada Srivallabha, who is present in front of you. Oh! Siddha Vysya Munis! Chant the Vedas in the presence of My sister Vasavambika. With the sound of your sacred chanting of Vedas, the result of bad deeds of people in the coming centuries can be destroyed. Sri Nagareswara, along with Vasavambika likes the chanting of Vedas very much. The white man, who is in our presence by chance, will be born in the next birth in the house of good Brahmins, who are Veda scholars in Himalaya region. He becomes a yogi and reach ‘Shambala’ village. You drive away the evil powers present in the polluted air with the sound of sacred Vedas.” Thus Sripada told them.
Siddha Vysya Munis’ ‘veda ghosha’ was completed. Sri Vasavi Kanyakambica, Sri Nagareswara, Virupaksha, the Kusuma Shreshti couple and Siddha Vysya Munis entered the ‘agni’ and disappeared. Sripada Vallabha blessed John. John said, ‘It is good to have a book on Sricharana’s life history’. Swami said, “In the coming centuries in accordance with your wish, ‘Sripada Srivallabha Charitamrutham’ will come in German language also.” He assured John and sent

him. He ordered me to enter the gross body again. Saying so, He went to take bath in ‘prayag’ confluence of waters. He disappeared.

‘My Dear! Today i.e. 25-5-1336 Friday, is a sacred day. Shankar! Tell me the experience you had in Dhyana’.
The speciality of Shiridi Saibaba’s manifestation

I said, ‘Oh! Most respected Swami! When I was meditating I saw a sanyasi (monk) in the attire of a Muslim. He was often uttering ‘Allah Malik’. He was sitting under a neem tree. He must be of 16 years age. He told an old person who came for his darshan, ‘I am a Nanak Pandhee Musalman’. To a different person, he said, ‘I am a good Brahmin born in Bharadwaj Gothra.’ He told another person, ‘This is my ‘Gurusthan’ and people who worship here on Thursdays and Fridays will get good luck.’ Swami! Throughout my meditation, I had the darshan of that young sanyasi only. I did not get the darshan of Sripada Srivallabha. Some people came and started digging at a place under the neem tree where that young sanyasi sat. There was a small cave inside. Inside that, four lamps were glowing intensely on the four sides. After some time, that young sanyasi came there,  got the cave opening closed and said, ‘This is my Gurusthan. Nobody should open it.’ Swami! I did not understand the wish of Srivallabha in granting me this type of darshan in meditation.

The Story of Yavanas

Palani Swami said, ‘My Dear disciples! The nature of Srivallabha cannot be imagined. One cannot say that his ‘leelas’ (plays) will be like this or like that. His wish is to coordinate all the dharmas and traditions in the world and merge them in sanatana dharma. He only will establish the sanathana dharma in the whole universe at the end of ‘Kaliyugam’. Sricharana told John, ‘Yahova’ means ‘I am’. That is the form of Parabrahma. All the consciousness reflecting in the universe is the consciousness of Jesus Christ who is popular as the son of ‘God’. The consciousness purified is the same as sacred flowing grace which gives peace and happiness. All those three forms are mine. As a result of your pure love you could get my darshan which is very difficult to get otherwise.’ Similarly the ‘Yavana Dharma’ also is an inherent part of Datta Tatwam. A mahatma by name ‘Maha Mathi’ was a devotee of formless Makkheswar. He used to call God as ‘Allah’. He saw all the seven heavens. He wanted to see ‘Allah’. But he saw only his reflection. The yavana sanyasi you saw was a Brahmin who was born in Bharadwaja gothra. He lost his parents in child hood. He was brought up by a Muslim phakir and learnt Muslim dharmas. He learnt Hindu dharmas by staying with a Hindu Mahatma. He learnt ‘kriya yogam’ from a great yogi in Varanasi. He met a Datta avadhoota and asked for silver coins. As his ‘tin’ was not filling, that Avadhuta put two ‘khajur fruits’ in it. Then he was satisfied. With that the chaitanyam of Datta flowed into him. Later, he came to Dhee Silanagaram. That was a small village present in a forest area. When it was a thick forest, Sripada Srivallabha sat on a stone there and meditated. If anyone does meditation sitting on it, he would get

wonderful results. In the underground house you saw under the neem tree, Sripada Srivallabha did ‘tapas’ for 12 years. During those twelve years, he got the power of tapas of 12,000 years. Srivallabha’s body got transformed into a 12 thousand years old one. The whole cave was occupied by his jatajutam (hair). His eyebrows also became thick. To see his eyes, one should lift the eye brows with difficulty. Sri Charana gave that fruit of ‘tapas’ to that young sanyasi. When that young monk was about 4 years old, Sricharana started ‘tapas’ in that cave in his hidden form. When that sanyasi became 16 years old, He completed twelve years of Tapas. My Dear! These incidents which I am telling are going to happen in the coming centuries. They are not the present incidents. Sripada will manifest with the name of Narasimha Saraswathi and will be there for 80 years with that name and form. Later he will be in ‘taponishta’ incognito in kadalivanam for 300 years. Later he will take the name of Swami Samardha in ‘Prajna puram’, and merge in the Mallikarjuna Lingam in Srisailam. But the ‘yavana’ (Muslim) sanyasi whom you saw will also be in an old aged form. He will put His chaitanyam in the sanyasi and make him equal to Him.

‘My Dear Shankar! Sripada Srivallabha did intense penance (tapas) for 12 years in the middle of those four ‘Nanda deepams’. He divided the whole universe into 16 parts and showed the four parts of Brahman like this. As symbols of the four parts of Brahman, he lighted those four Nanda deepams with His Yogagni, and he remained in ‘tapas’. The sides East, West, South and North are the ‘kalaas’ of the first part. People who worship them will get divine glow. The ‘kalaas’ in the second part are Earth, Space, Sky, and Ocean. Those who worship them will become ‘endless’ (ananta) and conquer the worlds. The ‘kalaas’ in the third part of Brahman are Fire, Sun, Moon and Electricity. Those who workship them will become lustrous and conquer worlds. The kalaas in the fourth part are life, eye, ear and mind. Those who worship them will become established in them. Moreover, one gets ‘jnana’ if the north side is conquered. 

If the south is conquered, he will not have problems from ‘bhoota, preta and pisachams’. If East is conquered, one gets wealth, and if West is conquered, the king becomes favourable. If one conquers all the four sides, he will get ‘Digvijayam’. Sripada Vallabha  has the ‘sides’ as clothes. He has spread to the endlessness of all the sides. So He is called ‘Digambara’. Sri Datta Digambara is the same as Sripada Srivallabha Digambara. From the gross, subtle and casual bodies of Sri Charana, thousands of rays and kalaas will be emanating. Some rays come as amsa avathars (partial manifestations). After completing the tasks given to them, they will be merging into the root chaitanyam (consciousness) of Sripada Srivallabha. 

He would do creation, protection, annihilation, retrogression and graceful acts simultaneously. The vibrations seen in the creation of worlds are called ‘Srishti Tatwam’. Their preservation and protection is called ‘sthithi tatwam’. Their annihilation is called ‘Laya Tatwam’. The reaching of those vibrations into the parent root ‘tatwam’ is called ‘tiro dhanam’ (retrogression). The vibrations related to compassion and pity on the ‘jeevas’ are called ‘anugraham’ (graceful act).

‘As the ‘yugas’ change, the people become less and less powerful. So the ‘Para tatwam’ (Supreme Being) on the request of rishis come down to the lower levels. The prabhu manifesting with a human body is indication of His complete grace. As a result of the Prabhu Tatwam coming down to a lower level, people can get highest benefit out of small acts. So the people in ‘Kaliyugam’ are blessed. By merely remembering Datta Prabhu, His grace will be obtained. There are many ways by which a man can degenerate, but there are double as many opportunities to get Sricharana’s grace. This is the hard truth. By doing acts like ‘smarana’ (remembering) and ‘archana’ (worshipping), one gets close to Sripada Prabhu. With this, the sinful acts, the undesirable tendencies, and samskaras of the devotees will enter the ‘chaitanyam’ of Sripada Prabhu and from Him, auspicious beneficial vibrations will enter the devotees.

Dattatreya

‘Sricharana will annihilate the collective sins and black glows reaching His ‘Chaitanyam’, with one dip in a holy river or he may burn them to ashes in His ‘yogagni’. He Himself does penance and will transfer the fruit of penance to His devotees. In this way, He protects the devotees without transgressing the rule of ‘karma’. If He thinks it necessary, he will over rule the ‘karma tatwam’ which is static (jadam) and grant liberation to his devotees. Every moment, he does the destruction of karma in a huge way for the sake of His devotees.”

After Palani Swami said all this, I dared to ask this question revealing the doubt in my mind, ‘Swami! I heard that when Elinati Sani (the influence of planet Saturn) was possessing, even Lord Shankar could not escape it. I pray you to reveal to me how ‘Sri Guru Sarvabhouma’ will drive away the difficulties related to planets.’

Palani Swami said, ‘My Dear! The planets in the solar orbit will not have friendship or enemity against the ‘jeevas’. Man takes birth in accordance with his ‘prarabda karma’ when the planets are in a particular position. He will get auspicious or inauspicious vibrations from the planets according to their movements. When the subtle rays coming from the planets are inauspicious, one can resort to ‘Mantra’, ‘Tantra’ and ‘Yantras’ to ward off their evil effects. If they do not show any result, one should do ‘japam, tapam and homam’. If they also do not give relief, only the ‘Guru Padukas’ are the refuge. Sricharana is omnipotent. There are two types of powers good and bad. The vibrations from those powers would be auspicious and inauspicious respectively. Every planet has got authority on some special parts in the man’s body. When planetary difficulties happen, the parts in the body on which they have authority will become ill. While receiving those subtle vibrations flowing from the ‘viswa chaitanyam’, untoward results occur. Differences will happen in attractions and repulsions caused by the vibrations. A person, who was having good friends so far, will go for bad company, live with dirty people, have baseless quarrels, lose relatives, quarrel with family members and lose the capacity of attracting people. The vibrations caused by the

universal powers will be continuously created. They work on the respective persons. This is ‘Stithi’ (the maintenance and protection of creation). Time is the form of power. After sometime, those vibrations leave that person and reach the body of another person who is supposed to be influenced in accordance with fate. It again gives results in accordance with ‘kaala chakra’. If men have devotion towards God and do ‘japam, tapam’ their intensity will come down to a certain extent. Maharshis do different types of yajnas (sacrifices) praying for the welfare of the universe. They transfer the fruit of those sacrifices. With this act, the undesirable vibrations originating in the universe, will go back to where they have originated instead of teasing one man after the other. That means they reach the root point of origin. This is called ‘Tirodhanam’ (retrogression). By doing a small good act, one may get a great good result. This is called ‘Anugraham’ i.e. grace. My Dear! According to the philosophy of ‘kriya yoga’ , I explained to you the Srishti, Stithi, Laya, Tirodhanam and Anugraham. In future, Sripada Srivallabha’s power will be flowing specially in the Muslim sadhu you saw in meditation. You could see the four ‘Nanda Deepams’ present in the underground cave under the neem tree. This is not an ordinary thing. Sripada Srivallabha gave this experience to you keeping some great aim in mind. He only knows the inner meaning of it. His ‘leelas’ are great and have highly secretive purpose. Moreover they should not be revealed to others. They could be divine secrets. I can explain to you only as much as permitted. All this creation behaves under the glances of Sripada Srivallabha. He is the authority for Himself He is the standard for Himself. The forms, expressions and yoga siddhis of universal authority cannot be surpassed. They can not be understood by quantifications or limitations.’
