DATTA| SRIPADA SRIVALLABHA CHARITAMRUTAM - 6

 

             SRIPADA SRIVALLABHA CHARITRA CHAPTER - 6



  Birth of Sreepada Sreevallabha:




On a Mahaalaya Amaavaasya day Raja Sarma(  father of sripada srivallabha swamy )was making arrangements for the ceremony of his ancestors. Then a cry of supplication “Bhavati! Bhikshaam Dehi” was heard at the entrance of the house in the street. Sumati Maharani gave alms to the Avadhoota (who is freed from all worldly bonds). He asked her to request for any boon. Sumati (mother of sripada srivallabha swamy )said to  Avadhoota, “Sir! You are an

 Avadhoota.

Your words are self-fulfilling ones. Elders are sayingthat the incarnation of Sreepada Sreevallabha will be attracted towards the earth veryshortly. In what form Lord Datta is now roaming? It is heard that Lord Datta is wanderingon this earth from the last one hundred years. You told me to ask for any wish. I have a desire to see the form of  Sreepada Sreevallabha.”


 SRIPADASRIVALLABHA GAVE DARSHAN TO HIS MOTHER


on seeing those words Avadhoota  broke into a horrible laughter that shook theworlds. Sumati Maharani felt that the whole universe in her vicinity disappeared in a trice. A 16 year handsome laid in the attire of a Sage appeared before her and said

                                          “Mother! VerilyI am Sreepada Sreevallabha. I am Datta. You wanted Me to show you Sreevallabha in  Avadhoota Form To satisfy your desire I am giving you the vision of Sreevallabha. You canask me for anything in this Sreevallabha form of Mine. You gave me food. In return I want to grant some boon. People in this world doing sinful acts intentionally derive bad results. Ifgood deeds are done intentionally good results are achieved. Performing good deedswithout any desire is called akarma. On account of akarma another result associated with punya or paapa has to be granted. That is under the control of God. Sri Krishna extolledArjuna to kill Kauravas because he did akarma. The idea is that such killing will not entailany sin. The slaying of Kauravas was a divine decision. You and your husband did lot of akarma. Therefore, some things have to be done for the welfare of the world. Express your wish without any hesitation. I will definitely grant it.”
 






                                         Sumati Maharani saw that supernal auspicious figure of SreepadaSreevallabha and fell on His Feet and paid obeisance. Sreepada Sreevallabha lifted Sumati Maharani from the ground and said, “Mother!
 It is a ludicrous matter that amother should fall on the feet of her child. It diminishes the life span of the child also.”

Then Sumati submitted, “Lord Sreepada Sreevallabhaa! You called me ‘Mother’!Therefore, you agreed that ‘I’ am ‘Your Mother’ and ‘You’ are ‘my Child’. Yours is a true word. So make that word a reality. Please take birth as

‘our son’.” Then ‘SreeCharana’ spoke thus, “Thadhaasthu!  (Be it as may be!) I will be born in the sameform of Sreepada Sreevallabha which you witnessed now.
