VEDANTA DESHIKAR |
|
To
Tiruvahindrapura
Deshikar thus became the, acharya at Kanchi. Atreya had presented to him the idol he was
worshipping and also the Padukas of Sri Ramanujacharya. Deshikar untiringly attended to
all his official and academic duties such as worshipping God, meditation, teaching his
students etc.
The Acharya visited Tiruvahindrapura, and was profoundly influenced by the river Garuda,
Aushadhachala hills, and the wild forests surrounding the temple of the deity
Devanayakaswami. He lived there for fifteen years. This was the place of his
self-realization. It is here that he realized the meaning of the Garuda mantra. It was
here too that he was blessed with the darshan of Lord Hayagriva. The acharya was always
busy and his hands were full wherever he went. He came to love Tiruvahindrappura. |
