Manthras for worshipping Adhi Sankara on his birthday

 Manthras for worshipping Adhi Sankara on his birthday

Adhi Sankara , one of the greatest aacharyas was born in Kaladi Kerala. His father died when he was a young boy . With lot of persuasion and difficulty he got permission from his mother to take Sanyasa and chose Govinda Bhagawat Pada as his Guru. He enunciated and preached the philosophy of Advaitha(no two) . The Hindu religion was in a state of disarray at that time due to the coming out of Budhism and Jainism , who were trying to convert Hindus in to their religion. Apart from that Vamachara worship involving animal sacrifices and strange rites on the cremation ground was also getting popular. Adhisankara was able to bring great discipline in to our great religion of Sanathana Dharma by preaching and convincing his philosophy , reforming and Organizing the worship system of several Gods , Writing commentaries to Brahma Suthra and other Upanishads including Bhagawat Gita , Composing prayers extolling the deities in very many temples across India , and establishing Several Mutts to protect and prosper his philosophic thoughts all over India.It is believed that he did all this within a span of 24 years (from the age of 8 to the age of 32 , when he attained the feet of the Lord.

He is worshipped all over India in various temples. Here is an AShtotharam to worship him. Please do keep an idol of Adhi Sankara or his photo and worship him on his birthday/
Aadhi Sankara Ashtotharam

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

 

   (There was a great king called Indra Dhyumna in Orissa  who was a  great devotee of Lord Vishnu. One great scholar once told him about a very rare but extremely holy form of Lord Vishnu called Neela Madhava . The king send all his courtiers in search of this great form of Lord Vishnu . Excepot one minister called Vidhyapathi all of them failed Vidhyapathi with extreme difficulty located  Neela Madhava being worshipped by A gentleman called Vishvavasu belonging to a tribe called SAbara. On his information the king  Indra Dhyumna did reach the place where he found Neela Madhava  but was disappointed as he was not able to see the god there. However he was instructed by God Nila Madhava to construct a temple on the top of the Neeladri(Blue mountain)  and get a  a wooden statue of him consecrated there by Lord Brahma. The God instructed the king to collect the wodden piece sent by him to  carve out the idol of the god. It is believed God himself came in the form of an artist  to carve the statue. He instructed that  he should work alone and should not be disturbed. He said he would work inside the temple and the doors should be closed,. Unable to stifle his anxiety to see the God , the king one day opened the doors of the temple. The Statues of Krishna, Balabadra and Subadra   werenot completely finished and did not have legs and arms. The God ordered the king to worship him in that form only. This is the Lord Jagannatha  of Puri.

 

It is believed  Adhi Sankara  visited  this temple   and  has written this great prayer.)

Jagannadha  Swami nayana padha  Gaami bhavathu may

 

He sits on seat of  divine Brahmam and has eyes  like lotus petal

He lives on blue mountain , keeping  his is pretty feet on head of Adhi sesha

He get immersed  in ecstasic joy  in the pleasure of  embrace  of Radha

Let  that  God Jagannadha and let him come  in the  way of my vision

 

 

न वै याचे राज्यं न च कनक माणिक्य विभवं
न याचेऽहं रम्यां सकल जन काम्यां वरवधूम् ।
सदा काले काले प्रमथ पतिना गीतचरितो
जगन्नाथः स्वामी नयन पथ गामी भवतु मे ॥७॥

 

Na vai yaache rajyam na cha kananka manikraya vibhavam

Na yaacheham ramyaam sakala janaKaamyaam vara vadhoom

Sadhaa  kale  Pramadha pathinaa geetha charitho

Jagannadha  Swami nayana padha  Gaami bhavathu may

 

I do not pray  for kingdom nor collection of gold, rubies and precious stone

I do not beg  for very desired bride  who is  loved  by all people

Always I beg to hear  the song  of the story of  the great lord

Let  that  God Jagannadha and let him come  in the  way of my vision

 

हर त्वं संसारं द्रुततरम् असारं सुरपते
हर त्वं पापानां विततिम् अपरां यादवपते ।
अहो दीनेऽनाथे निहित चरणो निश्चितमिदं
जगन्नाथः स्वामी नयन पथ गामी भवतु मे ॥८॥

 

Hara thwam  samsram  drutha tharam  asaaram surapathe

Hara thwam paapaanaam vithathim  aparaamyaadhava pathe

Aho dheene anadhe nihitha charani nischithamidham

Jagannadha  Swami nayana padha  Gaami bhavathu may

 

Please destroy quickly  the physical life which is heavy which I am going through , oh  lord of devas

Please destroy  the ocean of sins without shored  , oh God of Yadhavas

Oh Lord , whose feet is on heads of suffering and orphans who have  him and no one else

Let  that  God Jagannadha and let him come  in the  way of my vision

 

 

जगन्नाथाष्टकं पुन्यं यः पठेत् प्रयतः शुचिः ।
सर्वपाप विशुद्धात्मा विष्णुलोकं स गच्छति ॥९॥

 

Jaganadha  ashtakam punyam ya padeth prayatha  suchi

SArva papa vishudhathmaa Vishnu lokam cha gachathi

 

Those who read the octet of Jagannadha  with purity and well prepared

He would  be cleaned  of all his sins  and   will go to  world of Vishnu

 

॥ इति श्रीमत् शंकराचार्यविरचितं जगन्नाथाष्टकं संपूर्णम् ॥

Ithi srimth sankaracharya virachitham Jagannadhashtakam  Sampootrnam

Thus comes to an end the octet of Jaganadha  authored by Sri adhi sankaracharya
