LORD VIRUPAKSHA OF HAMPI

Struck with wonder, they broached this topic, when they met Vidyaranya Swamiji of the Sringeri Mutt. Seeing the happened, and likely to happen with his antarchakshu - inner eye, he said that this sacred land associated with Sri Rama's dwelling while searching for Mother Sita is a sacred land and would establish Dharma firmly and rejunevate the flagging nationalism. Satisfied, they sought his invaluable guidance for founding of Hindu empire without loss of time. Anon the programme was finalised; preparations went ahead and the ambition was materialized on the Abhinjim muhurt - the midday on Thursday of Margha Suddha Saptami of 1258 of Salivahana saka with Harihara on the throne. Acharya Vidyaranya came from Banaras and started moulding, building and guiding everything in the capacity of Pradhana Armatyasekhar, which he accepted after persuasion. It successfully repelled the alien thrust and supported the traditional religion and the Hindu culture.
