Sri LakshmiNaatha Teertharu

Contributed by Sheshadri P.R. Rao

Aashveeja, Krishna, Truteeya, SthiraVaara is the aaraadhane of Sri LakshmiNaatha Teertharu, Kundaapura Vyaasaraaja Mata.

· His moola Vrundaavana is in Naraseepura, 8km from DaabasaPete bus stop, towards DevaraayanaDurga/GoravanaHalli LakshmiDevi Gudi.

· To reach there, travel on the Tumkur road, turn right in DaabasaPete to go towards Devaraayana Durga.

· After you travel 8 km, before you enter the Naraseepura village, turn left to go to the Gudi. Talk to any villager for guidance.

· Naraseepura is famous from the days of Raamaayana. 8 km from Naraseepura is Hayagunda, a place where Lava-Kusha are believed have tied the Haya (horse) that was sent by SriRaama Devaru.

· Close to Naraseepura is a small hill (Betta), which has the foot prints of SriRaamaDevaru.

· Sri Lakshminaatharu belonged to this place even in his poorvaashrama.

· He is believed to have done Sajeeva Vrundaavana Pravesha in 1824 A.D.

· His Vrundaavana is in the middle of Baale-Tengina-Adake thota, just like Sri Brahmanya Teertharu, Abbooru.

· It is a Jaagrutha Kshetra, where Sri Lakshminaatharu even to-date is blessing the Aaartharu and Bhaktaru.

· Sri Prkaashaachaarya, who does the everyday pooje of Sri Lakshminaatharu, seems have got the Saakshaath Darshana many times (as told by himself to me many a times).

· Being a Saturaday-holiday, please go and have Sri Lakshminaathara darushana and serve him with your Thanu-Mana-Dhana.

· Any Sahaaya that you do to Sri Prakaashaachaaryaru during this aaraadhane will be appreciated and blessed.

· Please feel free to quote my name for any help or assistance when you go there.

· Sri Aachaaryaru is very kind and helpful and lives close to the Gudi.
