Maagha, Shukla, Dashami is the aaraadhane of Sri Yogeendra Teertharu, the direct shishyaru of Mantaalaya PrabhugaLu.

· In 1671, it was Sri Venkannacharya, the grandson of Raayara Poorvaashrama elder brother (Sri GuruRaajaacharya), whom Sri Raayaru chose to succeed him.

· He gave aashrama to Sri Venkannaacharya and named him as Sri Yogeendra teertharu.

· Am clueless to imagine the Punya and Sukrutha of Sri Yogeendra Teertharu for being the soul to be chosen by Sri Raayaru to succeed him.

· Also, wonder what must have been going through the hearts of Sri Yogeendra Teertharu when Sri Raayaru declares that he will do the SaShareera Vrundaavana Pravesha!

· Sri Yogeendra teerthau, needless to mention, learnt all Paatagalu from Sri Raayaru himself.

· Details about his MahimegaLu can be read from Sri Yogeendra Taaraavali, a great Grantha from Sri Sumateendra Teerthau.

· Sri Sumateendra Teerthau praises Sri Yogeendraru in a Chamatkaarika manner by using the template of 27 stars (Taara).

· In this, he narrates the day-to-day activites of Sri Yogeeneraru, the way he did Bhakthi in Raayaru, his mahimegaLu, and so on.

· Sri Yogeendra Teertharu entered Vrundaavana in SriRangam (Trichy, TamilNadu) in front of Sri RangaNaatha temple, on the banks of Kaaveri river.
