Transforming TTD and Shri Venkateswara Bhakti Channel (SVBC) as Universal Centres of Spiritual Learning
Highlights
Many religious groups ridicule Hinduism saying that it offers many Gods to confuse the seeker. There is no good concerted effort made to simply clarify to the fellow Hindu Seekers that \"It is only the ancient Hindus who found that there are many Demi Gods in this Universe controlled by one and the only Sarvottama - Shri Hari\"
Many religious groups ridicule Hinduism saying that it offers many Gods to confuse the seeker. There is no good concerted effort made to simply clarify to the fellow Hindu Seekers that "It is only the ancient Hindus who found that there are many Demi Gods in this Universe controlled by one and the only Sarvottama - Shri Hari"
We confuse may seekers by not propagating the Vishnu Sarovottamatwa due to our own "Asooya" as has been shared by Guru Raamanujachaarya and later corrected and presented in the pristine form by Jagadguru Madhvaacharyaa. Certainly Shankaraachaarya comes handy with his Bhaja Govindam and other Vishnu Stutis that he had gifted to the devotees of Lord Vishnu.
The major problem with TTD lies in its inability to appreciate the Knowledge left behind by Jagadguru Madhvaacharya. Unfortunately Dwaita Philosophy was relegated to the meanings of Madi and other so called orthodox methods being practised by Madhva Brahmins. We accept USFDA approval to make a drug but we do not accept the kind of hygiene that we must ensure while approaching God or entering into his sanctum-sanctorum!! It is mere ignorance and our inability to decipher what Jagadguru stated in his seminal works like the Taatparya Nirnayaas for several works of Veda Vyasa. We found in our Vedic Literature apparently opposing statements and they need to be reconciled or interpreted with the help of Samanvaya Jnaana shared by Madhvachaarya. This is the power of the most ancient philosophy that was brought back by Madhvacharya as Dwaitam.
As the highest seat of Hindu Spirituality TTD shall not show even an iota of Asooya in propagating the Dwaita Philosophy which shares Hari Sarvottamatwa and Vaayu Jeevottamatwa in a very lucid manner. It is the duty of the Vishishtaadvaitins - the followers of Ramanujachaarya to embrace this and continue with their saadhana as per their will and wish. Here is the simple but very significant diviations that we made in the name of our dedication to one school of philosophy:
By decorating Lord with huge Naama we had deprived the devotee to see the beauty of His face. The name shall be simple like the one adopted by ISCON without extending to the nose. We need to make these changes so that we confirm to the realistic theism shared by Madhvacharyaa that reconciles the presence of all Demi Gods in this Universe and align them in to the Divine Governing System of Lord Vishnu. Dr. PVRK Prasad who had brought in many practices as we see today in TTD is fully aware of this.
Unfortunately there are only few Gurus who can share the Dwaita Philosophy in chaste Telugu. PVRK Prasad garu, the Guru of Raghavendra Matha and his best students. These are the only persons that I think of as the greatest resources to share the all inclusive Dwaita Philosophy in Telugu through SVBC.
Sooner the TTD does the needful to ensure Hari Sarvottamatwam and Vayu Jeevottamatwam the better it would be for the people who are heading it and for the entire Universe. Whatever has been done so far is just opposite the real Tatwam revealed by the Lord Vishnu Himself in Bhagavadgeetha. It is high time that we adopt the Tatwa Vaada shared by Madhvachaarya and restore the real glory of TTD as the world's only source of realistic theism.
Here are the links that might help you appreciate the Philosophy of Madhvacharya which confirms Hari Sarvottamatwa and Vaayu Jeevotthamatwa in very realistic and surprising manner. I must not conclude this email without mentioning the works of Dr. BNK Sharma in English. It is through his works that many seekers like me got enlightened about the Poorna Prajnathwa of Dwaita Philosophy. Glad to share his work here:michaelsudduth.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Philosophy-of-Sri-Madhvacharya.pdf
A feeble attempt to translate this magnum-opus work in Telugu was made and those who are interested may peruse this link:kinige.com/book/Madhvacharya+Tatwajnana+Pradeepika
Those who are really interested in finding the most practical and realistic interpretation of our Vedic Literature shared by Veda Vyasa (who is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu the Sarvotthama) explained by Madhvacharya (Jeevotthama), this email certainly helps. The real justice to the jobs/roles the people got as Leaders in managing the TTD can only be done by implementing what was suggested in thsi email. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction - karma theory well explained but the power of the Sarvottama and the works of the Jeevothama shall not be ignored.
Vyasa, therefore suggested this to all the seekers in Kali Yuga:
కలౌ కల్మష చిత్తానాం పాప ద్రవ్యౌప జీవినాం
విధి క్రియా విహీనానాం గతిర్గోవింద కీర్తనం !!
