Why Ramanananda attacking chaganti garu


Satguru Tatvadarshi Sri Ramanananda Maharshiji is an Enlightened Satguru, born on 23-4-1968. Pujya Sri Maharshiji is the child of supremely pious couple, late Sri Guduru Narasayya - Brahmagnani and Gita exegete and Late Smt. Nagamma - a staunch devotee of God. Pujya Sri Maharshiji spent his childhood at Kappatralla village in Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh, India.
Pujya Sri Maharshiji’s communion with the Divine began from an early age. Siddha Guru Sri Maharshiji demonstrated profound interest in spiritual life, participated blissfully in Pujas/Bhajans and insisted on visiting Goddess Mother Durga temple, which was in front of Maharshiji’s house at Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh.

Every evening before 6pm, Maharshiji used to reach the temple carrying flowers, kumkum and turmeric along with him for worshipping the deity. Assemblage of devotees in temple encouraged Pujya Sri Maharshiji to give Aarathi to the deity every day. This Divine Seva went on for eight years.
Satguru Sri Maharshiji always secured 1st division from Primary schooling to Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering. During the 2nd year of B.Tech (Mechanical Engg) study at JNT University, Anantapur, A.P, India Maharshiji was drawn more intensively to spirituality and acquired the power to concentrate his mind. Siddha Guru Sri Maharshiji used to scribble the sayings of spiritual importance on the walls and waste papers. The walls of his room in the hostel showed pictures of Deities and Avadhutas. In 1991, Maharshiji came to Visakhapatnam (A.P) for pursuing higher studies in M.Tech (Masters in Engg). At this time, the seeds of Vairagya (aversion) and resignation began to take root in his mind.

As Pujya Sri Maharshiji’s life was passing in the acts of worship, all his emotions were absorbed in God and on one day in April 1994; The Supreme Lord of world -Sri Shirdi Sai Baba gave his first Divine Darshan to Maharshiji. The First Darshan lead to Ocean of beauty and joy, tears flowed from his eyes and his throat choked with emotion. Pujya Sri Maharshiji embraced the image and tightly clasped its feet. In doing so, he lost entirely all his afflictions and he became one without bodily consciousness.

Chaganti Koteswara Rao gari pravachanam on Vivaaha Visistatha

Hindu marriage joins two individuals for life, so that they can pursue dharma (duty), artha (possessions), kama (physical desires), and moksha (ultimate spiritual release) together. It is a union of two individuals as husband and wife, and is recognized by law. In Hinduism, marriage is followed by traditional rituals for consummation. In fact, marriage is not considered complete or valid until consummation. It also joins two families together. Favorable colours are normally red and gold for this occasion.

The use of jathakam or Janam Kundali (astrological chart at the time of birth) of the son/daughter to match with the help of a priest is common, but not universal. Parents also take advice from the brahman called 'Jothidar' in Tamil or 'panthulu or siddanthi ' in Telugu and Kundali Milaan in North India, who has details of many people looking to get married. Some communities, like the Brahmans in Mithila, use genealogical records ("Panjikas") maintained by the specialists.

Jatakam or Kundali is drawn based on the placement of the stars and planets at the time of birth. The maximum points for any match can be 36 and the minimum points for matching is 18. Any match with points under 18 is not considered as an auspicious match for a harmonious relationship. If the astrological chart of the two individuals (male and female) achieve the required threshold in points then further talks are considered for prospective marriage. Also the man and woman are given a chance to talk and understand each other. Once there is an agreement then an auspicious time is chosen for the wedding to take place.

In recent years, with the onset of dating culture in India, arranged marriages have seen a marginal decrease, with prospective brides and grooms preferring to choose a spouse on their own and not necessarily only the one whom their parents find agreeable; this has been more pronounced in urban and suburban areas than rural regions.

Ganesh Chaturthi (also known as Vināyaka Chaturthi, Gaṇēśa Chaturthī or Vināyaka Chavithi) is the Hindu festival celebrated in honour of the elephant-headed god, Ganesha. This is a very auspicious day celebrated to pray to the god so that every new activity that is started is successfully completed without any obstacles (Vighna = Obstacle).

Chaturthi (Hindi चतुर्थी) means "fourth day" or "fourth state". Celebrations are traditionally held on the fourth day of the first fortnight (Shukla Chaturthi) in the month of Bhaadrapada in the Hindu calendar, usually August or September in the Gregorian calendar. Badrapad corresponds to Virgo (simha/avani-tamil) in solar calendar. The festival generally lasts ten days, ending on the fourteenth day of the fortnight (Anant Chaturdashi).

The festival is celebrated by families at home, by people at their places of work and in public. The public celebration involves installing clay images of Ganesha in public pandals (temporary shrines) and group worship. At home, an appropriately-sized clay image is installed and worshipped with family and friends.
