    swami ragavendra becomes heartsurgeon
    Perhaps one of the most thrilling modern miracles performed by rAyaru is the incident involving Mallappa Shinde and his family. Mallappa Shinde was suffering from severe, life-threatening health problems. He was undergoing treatment in a leading hospital in Bombay, but the situation was becoming increasingly hopeless. He was advised by his family members to pray to rAyaru as a last resort. Such was his faith and pUrva puNya that his prayers were answered. One night, rAyaru appeared in his dream and performed surgery on his heart. The next day when doctors examined Shinde, they were astounded to see him out of danger and well on the road to recovery. Within a few days he was totally cured. After getting discharged from the hospital he went to mantrAlaya and performed seva with a lot of devotion and dedication. Once again, rAyaru appeared in his dream and directed him to get the brindavana mantapa and its surroundings renovated. Shinde was overjoyed at this chance to serve his beloved guru and immediately arranged for the renovation activities. A large portion of the modern structures that we see today in mantrAlaya were the result of this renovation effort. The Shinde family is really a blessed one since it has received the full benefit of rAyaru's munificence. Even to this day, members of this family recount with gratitude the many extra-ordinary events that have happened to them, thanks to rAyaru's benevolence.[​IMG]

    Rayaru is my first guru. It was at Ragahavendra mutt, in my early teens I had my first spiritual experience. It's my guru who is leading me in the spiritual path. Guruve Charanam.

    [TD="class: text, align: justify"][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]There was a Brahmin in sholapur . He passed the M.A., L. L.B Examination and, in his exultation, arranged a luncheon party for his friends. He partook of the luncheon along with his friends, but hard to explain, he vomited all that he ate. He could not his usual meal. His parents had him treated by eminent doctors. It was to no purpose. He used to vomit what ever he ate. One day, a Brahmin came to Sri Kamalakara joshi's house. The Brahmin was well aware of all the miraculous powers of swami. He said to Sri Kamalakara Joshi and his parents, " You had better go to Manthralaya and serve the swami for some days, the ailment will be cured. Food, which is eaten, will be properly digested. Health will be resorted." [/FONT][/TD]

    [TD="align: left"][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]Kamalakara joshi was an atheist. He had no faith in gods or Gurus. So, he did not pay heed to the Brahmins words. But. The parents compelled him to come to the shrine of Manthralaya. He bathed in the river Thungabhadra, visited the Mutt and observed the worship and panchamrita abhisheka performed to Sri Raghavendra swami, with his own eyes. He took mangala harathi and the sacred water and sat in the corner. All the devotees went to the dining hall to take their food. Afraid of vomiting, Kamalakara Joshi did not go to take food. The Mutt people invited him to come and have his meal. Ashamed to tell them the truth of his ailment, he replied that he did not feel hungry. But, as the Mutt people forced him, he went to eat. He began to eat and as the food was tasty, he ate well. He was afraid of nausea. But, all the food he ate that day was digested fully. There was no sign of vomiting. Joshi was surprised. He came to believe that his food was digested by the grace of Sri Raghavendra and there was no fear of vomiting. He began to worship Sri Raghavendra swami daily with great devotion and fervour. His food was well digested and he was happy. With gratitude to Sri Raghavendra Swami for his grace, Joshi worshipped at the shrine for 40 days. His parents were extremely happy to hear about their son's restoration to health. They came to Manthralaya and conducted puja to Sri Raghavendra Swami. [/FONT][/TD]

    MUD BECOMES MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD
    rAyaru had a devoted disciple who was studying the shAstras under his tutelage. The education was over and time had come for the disciple to return home and marry. As the head of the maTha, rAyaru was expected to bless this disciple and give him some money so that he could start life as a householder. In this case, it was even more imperative since the disciple came from a very poor family. However, he chose to bid farewell when rAyaru was on the way to the river for his bath and did not have anything to give him. When rAyaru expressed this, the disciple immediately replied “Even a handful of mud from you is even more precious than a gold full of gold”. RAyaru was pleased with his devotion and accordingly scooped up a handful of mud from the ground and gave it to the disciple. The disciple received this with total reverence and tied it into a bundle. He then placed the bundle on his head and started back home.
    He traveled till night and reached a village, and decided to halt there that the night. He approached the chieftain and requested him to grant him a place to sleep for the night. The chieftain said “You may sleep on the jugali of my house (a space just outside) but I have a problem. My wife is pregnant and is likely to deliver tonight. We have had extremely bad luck in the past because all our children have died immediately after birth. I am hoping that it is different this time”. The disciple agreed and slept immediately outside the main entrance to the house with his precious bundle as a pillow. At night, a dark and ferocious ghoul approached the house. This was the one that was killing all the children immediately after birth. This time, it had to cross the disciple to enter the house, but could not do so since the bundle under his head appeared like a wall of fire to it. It tried several times in vain and finally woke up the disciple. It told him “Your bundle contains a divine fire that is impossible for me to transgress. Why don’t you throw the bundle away? I will give you heaps of money, gold and precious jewels. The disciple pretended to agree, but quickly withdrew some consecrated mud from the bundle, and threw it on the ghoul. The effect of this action was spectacular. The ghoul screamed loudly and was immediately burnt to ashes. The noise woke up everybody in the house and they came outside the house. The disciple explained everything to them; at the same time the midwife came out of the house with the good news that the chieftain’s wife had delivered a healthy boy! The chieftain was ecstatic and hugged the disciple with joy. He attributed his good fortune to the advent of the disciple and thanked him profusely. The next day, he requested the disciple to stay back in the village and even offered his sister’s hand in marriage, along with a lot of wealth. The disciple gladly accepted this generous offer and lived happily. Thus, a handful of mud from rAyaru brought the disciple wealth, a good wife, powerful connections and life-long happiness!

    If you are a devotee of Shri Rayaru, there is no doubt you will know this song. Appanacharya as we all know, was the greatest disciple and also was very close to Sri Raghavendra Swami. At the time that Raghavendra Swami entered Brindavan, he was on the other side of the riverTungabhadra. Appanacharya wanted to be with his revered guru, but the river was flooding. He jumped into the Tungabhadra, singing Sri Poornabhodha stotra, realizing that if Raghavendra Swami could lead him across the ocean of samsara, a mere river could not hold him back. And he did cross the river safely, only to see that Raghavendra Swami had already entered Brindavan.
    Appanacharya was in such a profound state of grief, that he could not finish the stotra he had started to compose-it was missing 7 aksharas. These final 7 aksharas came from inside theBrindavan. Not only did this show that Appanacharya’s Sri Poornabhodha hadRaghavendra Swami’s approval, but it also showed that Raghavendra Swami was still with them. This was the first miracle he showed after entering Brindavan, and even today miracles happen to people who go to Mantralaya Brindavan to seek his blessings.

    The importance of Gurustotra and Sri Appanacharya

    Dear Devotees Appanacharya has told this in Gurustotra. Om Sri Raghavendraaya Namaha is the Beejaakshara Mantra of Rayaru by Sri Appanacharya. Devotees chanting this Siddhi Mantra with Devotion will definitely get their things done, desires are fulfilled and there is no doubt about that.Bichchali Appanacharya has challeneged this. The eight Sanskrit alphabets: Om Sri Raghavendraaya Namaha is the Sanjeevini Mantra to the Devotees.

    • Sri Sri Raghavendraguru stay in my head and always Bless.
    • Ra Rayaru is a staunch Aaraadhaka of Sri Rama-Sri Moola Rama Devaru, I surrender to Rayaru.
    • Gha Rayaru will protect from all the evils,dangers and disasters.
    • Ven The Worshipper of Tirumala Srinivasa Devaru * Venkatesha Bless me
    • Dra Let Rayaru liquify all our bad deeds and Protect
    • Ya Rayaru the Sacred Yati-Saint-Swami. We Regard Rayaru.
    • Na Naam Sankeertana Tushtaya. We praise Rayaru Naama Sankeertana , we propitiate Rayaru.
    • Maha Let Rayaru remove all our feelings of hatred and jealousy.

    The Beejaakshara Mantra Purifies our body, heart and mind and impart Siddhi. So Agham Draavayate Yasmaat Vemkaarao Vaanchhita Pradaha Raghavendra Yatis Tasmaat Lokae Khyato Bhavishyati.

    Rayaru is not an ordinary Saint. He is an extra ordinary saint. So the Miracles of Rayaru are the Blessings of Sri Hari by His Grace in accordance with the Shaastras and are reconciled by the Philosophy of Sri Madacharya only to help and Uddhhaara and there by put the Devotees on the right path and increase Hari Bhakti
