MANTRALAYA - AGRAPUJA TO MANCHALAMMA

Now move to Mantralaya, the holy seat of Madhva Pithadhipathi Raghavendraswamy, whose miracles read like phantasies and appear incredible and unacceptable to the doubting Thomas fans. Ironical it appears on referring to government records they turn true Bhaktas and repeated their visits to be blessed by that Mahimanvita pontiff, who it is believed is seeing unseen all the theists, if they visit to purge their sins in the tears of repentance and assurance of pious life. He was deputed by Sri Mahavishnu to rejuvenate the decadent dharma. Now read.

If happened during the grant of Jagir by Siddhi Masud Khan, the Nawab of Adoni who on realisation of the power of Swamiji, not only regretted his commission, but gifted land beyond expectation. And lo! canceling his previous farmana, gifted to a fakir, which is even now feeding the entire Math in carrying on temple activities. Ordaining Agra puja is not the monopoly of celestials, but some god men too, when conditions called forth such benign measure. Though yugas rolled by, the tradition hoary is implemented with great fervour. So hats off to the Highest and His messengers.
