2. Venky, during our child hood we used to play always Swamiji’s Game, in which I’l be Swamiji and others are Sevakas. We all the boys had installed a small hanuman temple in our home. It temple was just bigger than a small carton box. We named the temple as “Sri Vyasarja Pratishtita Pranadevaru” (And of course we got a lot of dakshine for doing mangalarati.) The temple got demolished in our quarrel, but the icon is still with me.

          I had a chance to visit this sanjeevi rayar temple in iyangarkulam last thursday. Fortunately since it was amavasya day, they were doing thirumanjanam to the main deity and for the first time I was able to observe vayu putra hanuman idol in closer distance. The tail had winded up above the head in this idol – possibly indicating that this can be one of the 732 prathistapana of Sri Vyasa raja – since all others also follow the same pattern.

    2. Indeed the famous Sanjeevirayar idol was one of the 732 installed by the great rajaguru Sri Vyasaraja guru sarvabhouma. Sri Vyasarajaru was the rajaguru for the mighty Srikrishadeva raya of Hampi Vijayanagar. Sri Tatachar was a contemporary of Sri Vyasarajaru. Sanjeevirayar idol follows the the pattern of other Vyasa prathista Pranadevaru. The bell at the end of a curled tail of Anjaneya indicates it is Vyasa prathista. Ayyangars have taken this idol and made it as their own by putting namas on the idol face. The idol of Bhasma dhari idol is that of Sriman Madhwacharya. Sri Vyasaraja defeated all the scholars of Adwaitic and Vishistadwaitic following in Kanchi puram and proceeded to install SAnjeevirayar temple near Kanchipuram. Over the years the mischivous Ayyangars and Smarthas have combined to convert the temple as per their own tradition. At that time Sri Vyasaraja was an undisputed scholar in Hinduism.Sri Vyasaraja did puja for Lord Venkateshwara when the immoral Ayyangar priests were using the temple for their private use. This is history and no body can denay it. Vyasaraja was a generous man and handed over Tirupathi temple to the decendents of Ayyangar priests after doing puja for 12 years.

       Reply

       1. when vyasaraja came to Thriupathi, there is no iyyangar priest there. That’s why he carried all pujas for 12 years. Then, he handed over to suitable Iyangar priest..If he thought,he would changed to madwa tradition. but, He didn’t do it. It showed his generous nature. This is real history. Donot twist it and not show hatred towards other sect of Vasinavs.

       2. Mr Nagaraj Rao ,
          Narrow minded ppl like you create division amongst people , its for your own good that you refrain doing this as it will not take you anywhere .No contention that sri vysarajaru was a great scholar . Everybody has the right to worship god as they please who are you or me to dictate terms ??Does the sect you belong to own all the temples ? what authority are you ? There are black sheep everywhere , neither are you or the sect you belong to are free from these evils .
          I would not challenge your claims about Sri Vyasarayaru & Sri Madhwacharyaru . We are mere ordinary mortals too pass comments , because you & me are Agnanis .
          My sincere suggestion to you is walk the mukti marga & bhakthi marga path by not indulging in such petty politics which is out of your scope & stop slandering other sects .

Shri Sumatheendra installed 5 Anjaneya idols in this part, the other 4 being Genguvarpatti, Watrap, Vellapottai & Aayiradharmam. This was informed to me by the Raghavendra Mutt manager at Markaiyankottai.

68. Hi,
    Recently I visited Sri Mukhyaprana Devaru on the way to Cheekalaparavi(birth place of Sri Vijayadasaru) from Manvi (Place of Sri Jagannath Dasaru).
    This place is around 4 km from Manvi, Raichur district, by auto.
    Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy performed Chaturmasya Vratha in this temple.
    There is also a story associated with this place.
    When Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy was performing Chaturmasya Vratha in this place, a person came to that place who was Sri Kanaka dasa in his previous incarnation.
    Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy identifies this person to be Sri Kanaka dasa through his powers as Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy in his previous incarnation was Sri Vyasa rajaru – Guru of Sri Kanaka dasaru.
    Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy calls this person and asks him “Kanaka, what have you brought ?”
    The person replies that he has got mustard seeds with him.
    One thing to observe his that mustard seeds are not used during Chaturmasya Vratha in all the Mutts.
    At this moment, Guru Shri Raghavendra Swamy accepts the mustard seeds from the person as the person was identified as Sri Kanaka Dasaru, his disciple in the previous incarnation and started using the mustard seeds even during the Chaturmasya Vratha and is followed even today in Rayara Mutt.

79. Great work on collecting this very important information. Here is another possible temple to explore and ascertain its origins:
    There is a Prana Devuru Vigraha of great antiquity in a temple on Temple street, Agara, HSR layout Bangalore. This temple is opposite to Kashi Vishanatha Temple. This temple, in particular, is right behind the recently consecrated giant size Hanuman statue, which hardly anyone cannot but notice, on outer ring road (ORR) Bangalore. Sri Prana devuru here has striking similarity to the Sri Vyasarajaru pradisthapana Sri Hanuman at other locations on this site.
    The temple is open only on Saturday mornings. There is a old priest who comes to worship in the temple from a different location. He told that his ancestors used to worship the deity over the centuries in its original location. The original location of the temple was someplace else near Bangalore, which is now owned by Indian military for shooting range practice. In order that no harm occurs to the Vigraha, Indian Government shifted the Vigraha some time back in the 1960s or 1970s to its present location.
    I used to regularly visit this temple on the weekends two years back. Only now, after seeing the pictures of other locations in this site, the similarity struck me. I am wondering maybe someone with expertise can ascertain if this is also one of the possible pratishtapana of Sri Vyasa Rajaru.

81. Hello,
    Thanks for the initiative to locate all the Mukhyaprana Temples consecrated by his holiness Vyasarajathirta.
    There is a pretty old Anjaneya temple in our Village – Doddankanahalli in Maddur Taluk of Mandya District. Elderly folks claim it to be around 500-600 yrs old. The Idol of deity is very similar to the others installed by Sri Vyasarajaru. There are some stone inscriptions besides the temple, which are probably in halegannada (old Kannada).
    A scholarly review of these inscription might confirm if the deity is actually installed by his holiness Chandrikacharya.

    My mane devaru is “Sri Konchur Bala Bheema sena devaru”. The temple of sri pranadevaru is located about 20 kms from Yergol where Sri Jayatirtharu wrote the Tikas and about 9 kms from Wadi in Gulbarga District. The temple priests tell me that the idol is about 800 years old. It is similar to Vyasa Pratishtapana idols as you have mentioned above so maybe this idol belongs to the above category. There was an old temple which is now in ruins and a new temple was constructed in 2007. Punahpratishtapane of the idol was done by Sri Satyatmateertharu of Uttaradhi mutt.

103. Namaskara Sir,
     While I know that you are collecting the list of our beloved guru Sri Vyasaraja Theertha krutha Vayu devaru details, I would like to add these list
     1, In Cheyyar, Opp: to Bus Stand one In Gally road named Samaathyan Kulam ( Actually It is Sampaathiyan Kulam, Sampathi of Ramayana Kala) one Sri Vijayaraghavar Ramar Koil is there. Within temple premises Sri Vyasaraja krutha Vayu Devaru is there. It defintely have the Anga Lakshana of Ganta, Sowgandhi puspha , Sikai are there. I went for a Sri Rama Navami Purapaadu and this Vayu devaru had shown me blessing.
     2. In Patteeswaram, near Kumbakonam ( Where famous Sri Durga, Nandhi gave way to Sri Gnanasambhar to see Sri Rudra from Rajagopura itself, Sri Parvathi Hugg Sri Rudra when he came to test as fire Thazhuvakulainda nathar, Sri Sakthimutra Pulavar’s home town ) one temple called Kona Perumal ie Gopinatha Krishnan Koil is there. There Irattai Anjaneyars ( see Photo below) are there. WIth the Anga Lakshanas of Shikai , Sowganthi Pushpas we can well conclude these can also be Sri Vysaraja Krutha Vayu Devaru. Though I studied and lived in that village for about 6 years in early ’80s, I never visited, where in I used to cross atleast 4 to 5 times an year this old damaging temple, while we go for Swamimalai in short cut road. That was my dhurbagya! But today I come across this and want to record through your noble service for future.

141. I am leaving a comment here for all so called brahmins to think and revisit the roots. Though we call ourselves as Brahmins (Iyengars, Madhvas, Smarthas) with different school of thought, we need to unite and not bifurcate among ourselves (imagine we are less than 2% now). We quarrel among ourselves following some thought process and take pride in telling this saint defeated that saint and so on. It is no doubt a curse on Brahmins to follow this kind of thought process rather than looking at respecting and unifying for a common cause.
     It is time that people at least realize that they belong to a bigger part of society to contribute and evolve rather than commenting on some things which do not add value to an induvidual.
     I pray God to give good thought rather than dogmas and fanaticism.

152. Last year there was a report in the paper that a dilapidated temple of sri Vunugopalaswamy temple along with a intact brindavana at Karuvalur, near Avinashi in Tiruppur Dist. and later went unnoticed. Recently myself along with my friends to initiative to discover the same. Though the temple is in ruins the mantapa infront of the temple is in tact with a big stupa and in the centre with the sculpture of SRI ANJANEYA. It resembles in all respect the characteristics of SRI VYASARAJARU INSTALLED ANJANEYA. The ruined temple is named as sri venugopala temple. Near to it a temple for anjaneya named as ANUMANTHARAYAN KOIL witha good tank with water. However the original statue is missing but the local people have installed a new Anjaneya and renovated it and named it as Jaya Maruthi koil. I have posted all the details in my timeline in facebook. Kindly go through it to confirm that it belongs to one among the 732 anjaneya. since it may be done during or later sri vyasarajaru or his sishyas. The Brindavana is confirms with all the aspects of madhva yethigalu but could not ascertain from which linage it belongs. In my opinion it must be that of one among the 24 sishyas of sri Vyasarajaru. .Since you have made a lot of contribution to our sidhantha i request or any of the followers of SriAnandatheertha can shed their opinion to get the details to complete this mission.
