IBHARAMAPURA
APPA DARSHANA - 11
Date : Dec 3 2007
Background
Ibharamapura’s Appa the great devotee of Bichali - Bhikshalaya Sri
Appanacharya Priya Mantralaya Sri Raghavendraru visited
the palace of the Maharaja of Mysore and the Miracles
are described here
Meaning
Mantralaya Rayaru’s great
devotee Ibharamapura’s Krishnacharya, Krishnarya,
popularly called as Appa has completely understood
the Siddhi of Bichali Sri Appanacharya’s Gurustotra. Such a great Punya Chetana entered
the palace of Maharaja
of Mysore.
The elaborate arrangements to welcome Appa cannot be
described in words. Because the king Sri Mummadi Krishnaraja Vodeyara was himself
a great scholar, gnyani, devotee and above all a kind
human heart always throbbing towards the satvikas bhaktas and the sajjanas. The
decoration of the meticulous palace looked as though it was Maya Nirmita and the work of Vishwakarma,
the palace was glittering and shining. Though the fragrance of flowers
decoration and the sandal scent was abundant in the palace, the fragrance which
came out from the body of Appa excelled all this.
Even Maharaja astonished. Simply bowed his head to this sacred personality and
came to know that Appa is Mahimavanta,
Daivamsha and Pavaada Purusha. Washed the sacred feet of Appa with gold vessels. Wiped the feet with the silk
cloth, worshipped with gandha,Akshatae
and mantrakshatae. The king was so much impressed
that he offered several silver, gold and diamond ornaments, articles, silk and jaratari dhotis, shawls, clothes and several things to Appa and requested Appa to
accept. Maharaja confirmed that Ibharamapura’s Appa is SATPAATRA. A great meet of two divine stalwarts at the sannidhaana of Sri Chamundeshwari.
Whatever Appa received and offered to Maruti. As our Mantralaya
Rayaru offering every thing to Sri Sri Hari.
Our Sri Lakumeesha
Dasaru has described:
Kshonipatigishtaarthasalisi
Mahaanubhava Virajisuta
Sanmanavanu SweekarisutaliKaiganikeyaKondu
Maan Avamaana Bhagavada
Adheenavenutali Tilidu Higgade
Yenu Aaduduellaa Aa Pavamanagarpisidaa
Just like our Sri VijayaDasaru Appa surrendered Samarpana to Pavamana, a great
devotee of Panchamukhi Praanadevaru.
The Sankalpa Siddhi Manasika Sankalpa - sincerity and
humbleness of Ibharamapura’s Appa was superb and
unique. This made him a Mahimavanta Bhakta of Mantralaya Rayaru.
As already described the Maharaja
happily agreed to offer what ever Appa desires and
demands. In the palace Appa asked to dig more than
six feet at the North East corner. As per the Appa’s saying the digging
started. All were anxiously looking what they will get and find after digging.
To the surprise of all after digging six feet deep, they found a beautiful
silver statue of Panchamukhi PraanaDevaru.
All felt extremely happy and folded their hands with devotion. Appa said this Statue was worshipped by Pandavas,
the most sacred and the siddhi, and Appa desired to worship and opted as Aaradhya
Deva. Thus Panchamukhi Pavamana desired the worship of Ibharamapura’s Appa. After seeing Pavamana Appa with devotional
ecstasy composed the shloka as he had ashukavitva:
VandeVaanaraNaarasimhaKhagaraatKrodaaschaVaktraanvitam
DivyalankaranamTripanchaNayanamRuja
HastaabjairasiKhetiPustakaSudhaKumbhaKushaadeenHalaan
KhatvaangamPhaniBhooruhamDashabhujamSarvaariDarpaapaharam
Dashabhuja,Panchavadana,Garuda,Naarasimha,Vaanara,Varaaha, Hayavadana Panchamukhi all in one statue sannihita
in Pavamaana. The divine incarnation of Sri Harisarvottama Vayujeevottama Appa described to Maharaja and to all the satvikas of Mysore. In the palace as per the
request of Sri Mummadi Krishnaraja
Maharaja Appa performed the first pooja
of pavamaana in the palace itself.The
King liberally offered gold and jewels ornaments to Maruti
and thus became highly gratitude.
Panchamukhi Praana Devaru who was dwelling in the
palace, under the ground, six feet below at the North East direction,
graciously came to Ibharamapura’s Appa and became
Aaradhya Daiva. A dawn of new
era in the history of Mysore, a mirror to the
greatness of the kings of the Mysore and how the
great chetanas were being honoured
and how the Maharajas were always indulged in the punyakaryas
are all depicted fairly by the Dasas and the historians.We are grateful to know all these things that
how the devotees of Mantralaya Rayaru
have shined and shined like the stars.
In the palace there was a devil (Bhoota) causing trouble since several years, Appa simply by Yoga Shakti and
the Divya Shakti of Mantralaya Rayaru vanished and
showered the Blessings of Mantralaya Rayaru and installed the silver Mruttika
Brindavana in the palace of Mysore, so as to enable to
move from one place to the other. Thus Appa
enlightened the Bhakti Anugraha
of Bichali and Manchali. Maharaja’s act of Samarpana
to Appa will be continued in the next series.
