Udupi Krishna
(Sri Krishna Mandir)

Jai Shri Krishna
Udupi Krishna Temple
Mother Yasodha had the great fortune of being with the prodigious divine child Krishna, though she was his only foster mother. Yasodha could enjoy all the childish pranks of Krishna. But Krishna's original mother Devaki, the one who had really given birth to Krishna, was denied all this pleasure, and she longed to enjoy Krishna's bala leelaas.

To honour his mother's wish, Krishna assumed his childish form of Balakrishna again and demonstrated all his playful activities for her sake.

While mother Devaki was overjoyed with the experience, Krishna's dear wife Rukmani, who also had the good fortune of enjoying it, was just exhilarated. She requested her love Krishna, for an idol of Balakrishna, in the same childish form.

The beloved husband entrusted the task of casting such an idol to Vishvakarma. The divine architect made a beautiful idol of child Krishna in the holy Saaligrama stone, for Rukmani to worship with all piety.

The idol giving darshan to the countless devotees at Udipi at present is the same idol of Krishna worshipped by Rukmani.

How did that idol reach Udupi all the way from Dwaraka?
Udupi Sri Krishan Idol
The Saaligrama idol, during worship at Dwaraka, got applied with fragrant sandal paste and gradually got totally covered by sandal in course of time.

In the great deluge that followed after Krishna, the city of Dwaraka was consumed by the surging sea. Along with it the sandal covered idol too was washed away by the waves.

Centuries passed. The sandal block was accidentally found as a hard rock by a sailor in an island, who began using it as a weight to balance his ship.

Once his ship was caught in a big storm in the sea beyond the west coast of the South Indian Peninsula, Saint Sri Madhwacharya, who had come to the sea shore for his prayers, saw the ship in deep trouble. He prayed to Lord Vishnu and signaled the ship to come safely to the shore by waving his garment.

Oh, what a miracle! The raging storm subsided immediately and the sinking ship moved to the safety of the shore. The grateful sailor fell at the saint's feet with tears in his eyes and requested him to accept something from his ship as a token of his gratitude. Sri Madhwacharya, who accepted to his request, was impressed with the sandal rock found in the ship and accepted it as the gift.

On breaking open the sandal cover, the idol of Balakrishna began emerging from it bit by bit. The saint just could not believe his good fortune in finding his favourite God coming to him on his own!

His joy knew no bounds when he realized through his divine vision that the idol found was the one worshipped by Devi Rukmani. Overwhelmed, he carried the idol to his Matt at Udupi some 4 kilometers from the shore, singing in praise of the Lord.

The mere touch from the holy hands of the saint was enough for the ancient idol to get bestowed with all the divine powers. It was installed and consecrated with due religious rites at Udupi.

The Krishna temple at Udupi, also known as the Mathura of the South, looks beautiful, though small.

The temple has a holy tank Madhwapushkarani next to the southern entrance. On entering, one comes to the Eastern entrance of Lord Balakrishna's sanctum sanctorum. This entrance is opened on the Vijaya Dhasami day, only once in a year. Though this entrance normally remains closed, one finds the beautiful aimpon (made of 5 metals) figure of Lord Vishnu on top, with conch, discus and his mount Garuda.

Udupi Krishna Mutt Holy Tank
On proceeding further, one comes to the path, well lit by rows of oil lamps, leading to the sanctum. On going along and around, one reaches the sanctum and gets the holy darshan of Lord Balakrishna through the window having 9 openings.

The Lord was facing east when Sri Madhwacharya installed him originally. But something strange happened later.

Kanakadasa, a devotee of Krishna, was denied entry into the temple through the main eastern entrance, as he was from a lower caste and hence denied darshan of his Lord. Driven to desperation, Kanakadasa moved to the western side and pressing his eyes against the 3 small openings on the western wall, prayed fervently to the Lord for his darshan. Just for this devotee's sake, Balakrishna turned towards west and through the 9 holed window and the opening on the wall beyond, gave his darshan to baktha Kanakadasa.

With diamond studded gold cover (kavacham): fragrant flower garlands: the brilliant crown (kreetam): yagnyopaveetham, the sacred thread made of golden yarn and with gold lined garments studded with variety of colourful precious stones, the Lord is just dazzling.

Separated from the devotees by the 9 holed window, the Lord may appear to be alone, beyond one's reach. But like the wisdom that dwells with the sages, he actually remains close and always inseparable from the devotees.

Just outside the sanctum window, is situated a silver roofed four pillared raised platform (mandapam), with the traditional deepasthambam, carrying the sacred oil lamp.

Right behind the four pillared platform is the Chandrasala hall, on whose wall is situated the Kanakadasa window.

From the arches at the front of the roof of this Chandrasala hall, are hanging bells, big and small, in various sizes and shapes. One hears the fine ringing sounds that they often make and gets a feeling that they are reciting the name of the Lord "Krishna, Krishna" during the different poojas. The roof with wooden decorations, from which hang lighted oil lamps kept is glass cases, adds to the grace of the surroundings. One finds the devotees sitting peacefully on the marble floor of this raised hall, a few trying to catch a glimpse of the Lord through the window and a few others saying silent prayers.

In one corner of the hall is the shrine of Lord Hanuman, in a meditative pose, with lovely flower decorations.

In the path of circumambulation, on the right of the main sanctum, is a shrine for Sri Madhwacharya and to the north of this shrine is one for Lord Panduranga. That is all the temple of Udupi!

In the corridor outside, is the temple kitchen and dining hall: next to it facing west is the shrine of Lord Subrahmanya in the form of a serpent and at the back is Ghosala, the cow shed, housing a large number of cows. Nothing strange, with the Lord of the temple himself being the divine cowherd, isn't it?

There are fourteen poojas done daily to Lord Sri Balakrishna, starting at 04:00 in the early morning. On the Gokulashtami day, the birthday of the Lord, there is a grand celebration in the temple.

In Udupi, Lord Sri Bala Krishna presents himself in the form of a mischievous child, his one hand holding the shaft used for churning out the butter, the other holding the rope used by mother Yasoda for tying him up, with a divine grace and a captivating smile, ready to shower his blessings on all his devotees.

There are three temples in Udupi - Chandreshwara, Anantheshwara and Sri Krishna temple. Chandreshwara and Anatheshwara are the most ancient temples of Udupi.

Travel & Accommodation
A visit to Udupi Shree Krishna Temple can also be combined with other tourist attractions across the city. The nearest railway station and airport to Udupi is Mangalore. There are also regular busses to Udupi from Mangalore, Mysore and Bangalore. It is well connected with all major cities in Karnataka. There are many affordable hotels around the temple.

List of works by Madhvacharya


Jump to navigationJump to search
The extant works of the Dvaita founder-philosopher, Madhvacharya, called the Sarvamūla Granthas, are many in number. The works span a wide spectrum of topics concerning Dvaita philosophy in specific and Vedic thought in general. They are commentaries on the VedasUpanishadsBhagavadgitaBrahma Sutras and other works. The list of works are enumerated below.[1]

Commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita

Madhva, of the view that the Gita is as much a part of the religious canon as Upanishads or the Vedas, has authored two commentaries on it. His first work, Gita Bhashya is expositional while the latter, Gita Tatparya, is polemical in nature. According to Madhva, the Gita contains the distillation of the ideas expressed in the Upanishads and the Pancharatra, hence a vital part of the Vedanta tradition.[2]

Gita Bhashya

This preliminary commentary on the Gita is the earliest example of Madhva's style which is characterised by its terseness and brevity. [3] He quotes from a variety of rare sources and scriptures and is not an exhaustive commentary on the Gita as it concentrates only on a few verses. Madhva establishes the importance of Karma Yoga or the path of duty, which had been previously relegated to a footnote in Advaita. [notes 1] According to Madhva's view, the ultimate knowledge or the Aparoksha Jnana can be attained through a combination of dispassionate discharge of one's duties (Karma Yoga), acquisition of scriptural knowledge (Jnana Yoga) and the unconditional devotion to the higher entity (Bhakti Yoga). [4] Though, according to Madhva, Bhakti represents the final and ultimate step towards transcendence, Karma and Jnanaaid in "cleansing the consciousness" of the spiritual aspirant. He also takes an approach, unique to his time, that the rituals prescribed in the Vedas for rewards are not to be taken literally. [5] He views them as mere objects of attraction for the general population that would subsequently propel them towards deeper meaning underlying the superficial performance of rituals. [notes 2]

Gita Tatparya

This later work of his marks a stylistic transition from the previous work in that brevity and formality of his other works are replaced by poetry and elegance. [6] To substantiate his views, he quotes from a diverse array of sources including a non-extant text called Brahmatarka, which has led to significant speculations among the scholars (both present and historical) about its authenticity and existence. Gita Tatparya amplifies the claims of the previous work as well as deals with the rival schools of thought, mainly that of Adi Sankaraand Bhaskara. Madhva argues in favour of the reality of experiences (as opposed to the illusoriness of the world in Advaita) by basing the validity of a particular experience on the pramanas or "channels of knowledge acquisition". The pramanas Madhva accepts are pratyeksha (direct perception), anumana (inference) and shabda (testimony) with Sakshi (the internal witness) serving as the ultimate arbiter. Jayatirtha's Nyayadipika serves as a commentary to Gita Tatparya. [3]

Commentaries on the Brahmasutras

  • ब्रह्मसूत्रभाष्यम् (Brahmasutra Bhashya)
This is a commentary on the Brahmasutras and covering every suutra. According to the Dvaita sampradaya, there are 564 sutras. More details can be seen from.[1]
This has multiple commentaries, including some of the earliest disciples of Sri Madhvacharya --
Sri Madhvacharya's treatment of Brahmasutras has many unique points:
Brahmasutras are considered decisive [निर्णायक] of purport of the entire scriptures. This is unlike other traditions which consider the suutras as just an aid or a part of the process to arrive at the purport. And for this reason, Brahmasutras are part of paravidyA in dvaita, while it is not in other sampradAyAs.
Brahmasuutras are recited with an 'OM' at the beginning and the end.
Brahmasuutras' range of coverage is the entire shabdashAstra, not just that Upanishads.
According to Advaita, one of the prerequisites to studying Brahmasutras or doing brahmajijnAsa (i.e. an enquiry into nature of Brahman) requires a thorough understanding of the karmamiimaasma. According to Vishishtaadvaita, Brahmasutras comprise one unit of shaastra, along with karmamiimaamsa and daivii miimaamsaa. According to Dvaita, Brahmasuutras are a unit in themselves, and having devotion to Vishnu and detachment in regular materialism etc., form the minimum prerequisite. There is no stress on understanding of karmakANDa.
  • अनुव्याख्यानम् (Anu Vyakhyana)
  • न्यायविवरणम् (Nyaya Vivarana)
  • अणुभाष्यम् (Anu Bhashya)

Commentaries on the Upanishads

Work on Vedas

Prakarana

These are short works, each of which has a very specific focus.
  • प्रमाणलक्षणम् (Pramānalaksanam)
  • कथालक्षणम् (Katha Lakshana)
  • उपाधिखण्डनम् (Upadhi Khandana)
  • प्रपञ्चमिथ्यात्वानुमानखण्डनम् (Prapancha Mithyatva-anumana Khandana)
  • मायावादखण्डनम् (Mayavada Khandana)
  • तत्त्वसङ्ख्यानम् (Tattva Samkhyana)

  • तत्त्वोद्योतः (Tattvoddyota)
  • विष्णुतत्त्वविनिर्णयः (Vishnu Tattva Vinirnaya)
  • कर्मनिर्णयः (Karma Nirnaya)

  • महाभारततात्पर्यनिर्णयःMahabharata Tatparya Nirnaya [7]
  • भारतनिर्णयः or यमकभारतम् (Yamaka Bharata)

Work on Puranas

Stotras[edit]

  • नरसिंहनखस्तुतिः (Narasimha Naka Stuti)
  • द्वादशस्तोत्रम् (Dvadasha stotra)
  • कन्दुकस्तुतिः (Kanduka Stuti)

Miscellaneous Works

  • कृष्णामृतमहार्णवः (Krishnamruta Maharnava) [8]
  • सदाचारस्मृतिः (Sadachara Smruti)
  • तन्त्रसारसङ्ग्रहः (Tantra Sara Sangraha)

  • जयन्तीनिर्णयः (Jayanti Nirnaya)
  • न्यासपद्धतिः (Nyasapaddhati)
  • तिथिनिर्णयः (Tithinirnaya)

Notes

  1. ^ Advaita considers Karma to be contingent upon Jnana. If ultimate knowledge of the inseparability of the Brahman from the Jiva has been attained, the karma stipulations can be ignored
  2. ^ Madhva constantly makes it a point to claim that these views are not his own but already mentioned in the religious corpus. He substantiates his claims with quotations from the said sources.

Ashta Mathas of Udupi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
The Tulu Ashta Mathas of Udupi (ಉಡುಪಿಯ ತುಳು ಅಷ್ಟ ಮಠಗಳು) are a group of eight mathas or Hindu monasteries established by Madhvacharya, the preceptor of the Dvaita school of Hindu thought. For each of the eight mathas, Madhvacharya also appointed one of his direct disciples to be the first Swami, head of the matha.

The ashta mathas are named after the villages in which they were originally located. Today, the mathas are situated in the temple town of Udupi. The mathas work to propagate the Dvaita philosophy. They also administer the famous Udupi Krishna Temple by way of a formal rotation scheme called Paryaya.
When the ashta mathas were formed, Sri Madhvacharya initiated the Swamijis of the mathas in pairs. Each pair of mathas is called Dwandva (literally, two or dual). In the event the current Paryaya Swamiji has difficulty performing his duties, the Swamiji from the Dwandwa matha takes over the responsibility. The four pairs of mathas are: Palimaru and Adamaru; Krishnapura and Puttige; Shirur and Sodhe; and Kaniyooru and Pejavara.

Appointment of Successor to Sri Palimaru Matha.

Sri Vidyadheesha Teertha Sripadaru finds His successor

The pontiff of paryaya Shri Palimaru, His Holiness Vidyadheesha Teertha has chosen the youth Shri Shailesh Upadhyaya as his successor. His Holiness Vidyadheesha Teertha is the 31st pontiff of Shri Palimaru Matha which was founded by Shri Madhvacharya and taken ahead by Shri Hrishikesha Teertha. His Holiness who is currently 63 years of age was in pursuit of a suitable person for his successor's position. His Holiness is pleased with the fact that his successor has been found at Yogadeepika Vidyapeeta itself, which was founded by his guru Shri Vidyamanya Teertha and is currently being advanced by His Holiness.  
Shri Shailesh Upadhyaya is the eldest son of Shri Surendra Upadhyaya and Smt.Lakshmi Surendra Upadhyaya who hail from Kodavooru Kambalakatta village located near Udupi. Their second son Vishvesha Upadhyaya is doing his medical studies.
In a press conference organized to announce the selection of his successor, His Holiness said, “Sanyasa ashrama cannot be conferred by force. The person must be interested in asceticism. There must be alignment of all the factors stated in shastra. The parents of the Vatu must give their consent. We had provided the horoscope of the vatu to three different eminent astrologers. This fact was unknown between them. However in conclusion, there was consensus in the opinion of theirs. They opined that the choice of this youth as the successor to Shri Matha would be a good decision. Not only us, the parents of the youth too inquired about this with astrologers of excellence at Kerala and there too, they have received positive affirmation. The vatu is already studying shastra at Yogadeepika Vidyapeeta. His further study will be under my own tutelage. May all your prayers and good wishes be bestowed upon the youth.”
On 26.03.2019 the elder members of the family of Shailesh Upadhyaya approached His Holiness and informed him of their consent to the scion of their family accepting asceticism and thereafter, entrusted the youth to Shri Samsthana in front of Lord Krishna.
  • The conferment of ashrama will begin from 09.05.2019 onwards. On this day, programs of prayaschitta, Viraja homa and atmashraddha will be conducted.
  • On 10.05.2019 the vatu will embrace sanyasa ashrama and will take pranava mantra deeksha from His Guru. This ritual will take place at brahmee muhurta.
  • On 11.05.2019 ashtamahamantra upadesha will take place.
  • On 12.05.2019 the pattabhishekha of the successor to the peetha of Shri Palimaru Matha which is the peetha of Shri Hrishikesha Teertha will take place.
All these rituals will be conducted at the sarvajna simhasana itself
"The disciples of Shri Matha, followers, devotees should not await a separate invitation. Think of this as your own duty and participate in all the programs and earn the grace of Lord Krishna - Mukhyaprana." His Holiness thus rendered an invitation to all at the press conference.

They opined that the choice of this youth as the successor to Shri Matha would be a good decision. Not only us, the parents of the youth too inquired about this with astrologers of excellence at Kerala and there too, they have received positive affirmation. The vatu is already studying shastra at Yogadeepika Vidyapeeta. His further study will be under my own tutelage. May all your prayers and good wishes be bestowed upon the youth.”
On 26.03.2019 the elder members of the family of Shailesh Upadhyaya approached His Holiness and informed him of their consent to the scion of their family accepting asceticism and thereafter, entrusted the youth to Shri Samsthana in front of Lord Krishna.
  • The conferment of ashrama will begin from 09.05.2019 onwards. On this day, programs of prayaschitta, Viraja homa and atmashraddha will be conducted.
  • On 10.05.2019 the vatu will embrace sanyasa ashrama and will take pranava mantra deeksha from His Guru. This ritual will take place at brahmee muhurta.
  • On 11.05.2019 ashtamahamantra upadesha will take place.
  • On 12.05.2019 the pattabhishekha of the successor to the peetha of Shri Palimaru Matha which is the peetha of Shri Hrishikesha Teertha will take place.
All these rituals will be conducted at the sarvajna simhasana itself
"The disciples of Shri Matha, followers, devotees should not await a separate invitation. Think of this as your own duty and participate in all the programs and earn the grace of Lord Krishna - Mukhyaprana." His Holiness thus rendered an invitation to all at the press conference.
