MADHVA |
|
| As he grew to
be a youth, Vasudeva became greatly attracted to God. He wanted to become a sanyasi. So he went a Guru. The Guru’s name was Achyutapreksha. Of course, the Guru was also a sanyasi. He was attached to the shrine of Ananteshwar at Udipi. Satisfied with Vasudeva, he gave him sanyasa and the name Purna Pragna. The parents of Purna Pragna now became upset because he was their only son. When a man became a sanyasi, he had to leave his home and cut off his worldly relations. Purna Pragna consoled his parents and told them: "Please do not grieve over me. God will give you another son soon. He will look after you!" |
