An ode to Sri Guru Raghavendra Swami
The capital of Tanjavur was in a celebratory mood, Guru Sri Sudheendrateertha graced the royal court followed by Venkata, and bestowed upon him the name ‘Sri Raghavendrateertha Sripaadangalavaru’. A grand abhisheka was held to coronate Sri Raghavendra Teertha into the kingdom of Vedanta. People thanked their stars to have witnessed this Godly ceremony.
After the passing of Guru Sri Sudheendrateertha, Guru Sri Raghavendra Swamy occupied the seat of the holy mutt. In his reign, Tanjavur experienced a massive famine. People suffered from the shortage of food, fodder, milk, and even water. The selfless Guru Raghavendra distributed everything that the mutt had to take care of its people.
As years passed, Tanjavur witnessed one of the worst famines in history, the mutt too ran short of resources. Guru Raghavendra then went to the granary, took the last few grains of rice, and inscribed the powerful Beejakshara on them. In a matter of four days, the granary was miraculously refilled. The people hailed the Guru.
