Pranams to Sri Jagadguru Sri Adi Sankaraachaarya and His Holiness Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi.

The teachings of His Holiness Sri Adi Sankarachaarya are timeless jewels. They are the floodlights that show path to a Saadhaka( one who strives). They are a medicine for the soul (Atma) that is suffering from the cycle of birth and death. When this medicine is taken in the right way, the Atma is bound to merge with Paramaatma and escape from the cycle of Samsaara. Understanding these teachings helps in leading a peaceful, fruitful and spiritual life.

The teachings were propagated by His Holiness Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi on several occasions during his lifetime which were brought out in Telugu in 10 volumes as Jagadguru Bodhalu by Sadhana Grantha Mandali, Tenali, Andhra Pradesh.

Sri. Bulusu Surya Prakasa Sastry

In this introduction, it is important to know about Sadhana Grantha Mandali, Tenali that was founded by Sri.Bulusu Surya Prakasa Sastry. Born in East Godavari district of AP, Sri.Sastry made Tenali his home. Though he did not have formal schooling, he studied at Maharaja College in Vizianagaram and KVR College in Tenali.  He worked as a teacher at Sanskrit College and High School in Tenali after clearing Bhasha Praveena, Ubhaya Bhasha Praveena and Vidwan level examinations in Sanskrit. He established Sadhana Grantha Mandali in Tenali after getting inspired by Geetha Press Prakashan, Gorakhpur, UP who are publishers of Hindu religious books at affordable rates.

Ever since he founded Sadhana Grantha  Mandali sometime around 1950s, Sri.Sastry published almost 300 books on Hindu religion and Jagadguru Bodhalu ( meaning The Teachings of Jagadguru) is one of many such gems. Reading these books is bound to clear one’s ignorance and is sure to take the soul to the next level. The content of these teachings is more relevant today given the way people across the globe are leading a stressed out and difficult lives. Hence the gist of these teachings is being presented in this blog for the benefit of all.

All men die but great men never die because they always lived for others. They continue to live through their great works. This blog is a small attempt to show my gratitude to all such great men and Gurus and firmly believe that He is the one who prompted this soul to undertake this effort.
