 ShringaGiri

A rishi named Shringa is said to have performed penance on that mountain. The mountain got a label 😜…. Shringa’s Giri/hill.

It didn't stop with that…..😭

The very place acquired certain qualities too. It remained undiscovered, till a ‘visionary’ sighted these qualities 😂

Aadi shankara was that person. He even decided to be charitable about mentioning his discovery 🙏. Those life forms, which normally perform ONLY the functions embedded in them ( technical name is PraVrutti…. or, in our ‘way’ of understanding “embedded software”) happened to TRANSCEND this ‘nature' in them and performed a much superior function. 2 examples ( noticed by AadiShankara & depicted in a stone as a picture) is a vulture sparing the life of its prey/food, a snake, and a snake sparing a frog, and instead , both protecting their prey 😜. Sherlock Holmes used to ‘deduce’ . AadiShankara didn't have to, since he was capable of experiencing the subtle energy which caused this Transformation 🙏. He decided to institutionalise this quality for the benefit of mankind. A mutt, and a lineage of pontiffs, to this day, came into being, known as Sringeri Mutt. Assignment to the pontiffs is simple ( not quite easy 😜) : to propagate the highest of the 4 declaratory truths, “aham brahma asmi “... ( Tools required for the task, would be a choice according to ever-changing situations). Any visionary can verify the credibility of the place, with sufficient capabilities of perception and sense of Discrimination 🙏. ( A symbolic story to illustrate this effect of a ‘place’ like this is ‘The judgement throne of Vikramaditya “ where a cowherd boy happened to sit on a mound of mud, and astounded others by his unbelievable sense of Juris_Prudence, and later a king decided to dig that mound, to discover that throne_of_vikramaditya🙏.)

The concept of a place getting energised in a subtle level is available in the science of Temple_consecration 🙏. 

( Imagine my surprise, when a once_omitted_paternal uncle wrote an email to me “do you know, the sringeri pontiff, is our KulaGuru 👍”, in response my email about my visit to Sringeri, for a family_ritual !!! 😜… That, to me, has a new message “never should I indulge in exploiting the commitment of the ‘lineage’ of the pontiffs, no matter if the price i have to pay is Even_my_salvation🙏🙏🙏”)

Humbly yours,
