Background

Dear Devotees:Namaskara,
Bichali Japadakatti Sri Appanacharyaru has described in the 19th shloka of  Sri  Raghavendra Stotra - Gurustotra :

AGAMYA MAHIMA LOKAE RAGHAVENDRO MAHAA YASHAAHAA
SRI MADHWAMATA DUGABDHI CHANDAHA AVATU SADAA ANAGHAHA

The wordings of the above shloka are 100% true. The greatest divine power of imparting success, peace and happiness - Mahima of Sri Raghavendrateertharu is wide spread throughout the universe.  Rayaru is pure and holy, is like a Moon to the ocean of Madhwamata. On the full moonday the ocean overflows with joy and happiness! In the same way Acharya Guru Sri MannMadhwacharyaru is highly pleased to the noble seva of Sri Harisarvottama and Sri Vayujeevottama of our Mantralaya Sri Raghavendrateertha Gurusarvabhoumaru.

Sri Raghavendrateertharu’s affection towards Kumbhkonam – Mantralaya and the devotees strong belief and the firm faith towards Rayaru’s Mruttika are described in Mantralaya(897).

Meaning:

TKUMBHAKONAM OF KAVERI   TUNGABHADRA OF MANTRALAYA ARE THE TWO EYES OF OUR RAYARU.

Kumbhakonam is situated on the bank of the sacred Kaveri in Tamilu Naadu. Very dear to our Adhidaiva Karunaalu Sri Raghavendrateertharu! So also Mantralayasituated on the holy bank of Tungabhadra river.  Both are equal to the sacred river Sarayoo of Ayodhya  of our Sri Ramachandradevaru. The center of our ancient culture, religion and the fountain of spontaneity of devotion is showering constantly even today. Famous and popular as the temple city with several temples of Sri Hari and Sri Hara. Mathas, centers of culture and religious harmony. The ringing of bells is soothing and encouraging. The abundant temples are itself a great witness. Our Paramaguru Sri Vijayeendrateertharu’s accomplishment of knowledge and success is known to the whole universe. Today’s Kumbhakonam’s Sri Vijayeendramatha itself is the living example. Sri Vijayeendrateertharu was the beloved shishya of Sri Vyasarajaru the   Purvaavataara of our Adhidaiva

Sri Raghavendrateertharu. Sri Vijayeendrateertharu is none but the rebirth of Vibudhendrateertharu. Sri Vijayeendrateertha and Sri Sudheendrateertharu, spent a long time in this Lingarajamatha, previously it was of Shaiva Lingarajamatha. Sri Vijayeendrateertharu won this matha in all the competiions tests and Lingaraja simply amazed to the extra - ordinary knowledge and the highest Pratibhaa Paanditya the cpompetitions Kumbhakonamatha Vidyamatha. Sri Raghavendrateertharu liked the sacred Kaveri and KLumbhakona. In Sri Raghavendravijaya:

SAHYA BHOODHARA SARSSAROJJINEE SAARASHRITA MAKARANDA SANTATIM
YAABHIBHARTI PARATHHAA RAMETASHIM TATRA RANGAPATI BHRUNGA TALLAJAHA

From the Sahyadri hills Sacred Kaveri is born and flows crossing through several ponds, Pushkarini full of lotus flowers through

With the fragrance of honey to offer the same to Makaranda Priya Sri Ranganathaswami!  With all the sweet soothing feels Kaveri is flowing melodiously. Devarshi Avataari Dasavarenyau has beautifully sang!  Swami Sri Ranga is famous as KAVERI RANGA! When God has given us eyes, we have to see our Sri Ranganathaswami whole heartedly and fill in inward eyes and our heart.

The remembrance of Sri Prahalaavataara, Sri Ahobala  Sri Narasimhawami Pratyksha Darshana’s golden moment always the inward eyes witnessing forced Sri Raghavendrateertharu to leave Kaveri Kumhakona and come to Mantralaya situated on the sacred  bank of Tungabhadra for our Uddhaara.
