Message of H.H. Parama Pujya Srimatparamahamsa Parivrajakacharya Sachidananada Pranavaswarupa Acharya Mahamandaleshwara Jagadguru
Sri Sri Sri Jayendra Puri Mahaswamiji
Peethadhipathi of Sri Kailash Ashrama Mahasamsthana Rajarajeshwarinagar, Bangalore.
The glory of Bharat transcends all elemental limits. In fact it has echoed beyond space and time and continues to do so even to this day. The fundament of this impeccable glory lies deeply embedded in the message of the Vedas, particularly the Upanishads. It lies again in the inculcation of these timeless values into the lives of the children of Mother Bharat whether inhabiting the mountains or the plains or the impenetrable forests along the length and breadth of this great country. These ‘acharas’ or observations, though rooted unmistakably in the tenets of the spiritual lore of Bharat, seem to have adorned localized geographical and temporal forms but remain easily acceptable to all other regions and times during mammoth cultural congregations like the Mahakumbha Mela or innumerable pilgrimages like a ‘Chaar-dhaam’ yatra or Tirupati Yatra or even a yatra to Sabarimalai within the boundaries of Bharat and they continue to be so during spiritual or cultural festivals like Kumbhabhishekas (temple consecrations) or Bhajan sessions even abroad. This is truly the greatness of Bharat. This is the essence of the Veda mantra-
sahanavavatu sahanau bhunaktu saha viryam karavavahai |
tejasvinavadhitamastu ma vidvishavahai ||
Om shanti shanti shanti ||
May we be protected together
May we prosper together
May our education be radiant
May we never hate one another
Om peace Om peace Om peace.
(May there be self-control individually, may there be no sorrow due to natural decay, may there be no sorrow through natural calamities)
This is again the cord of global brotherhood; love and regard for all and everything, animate and inanimate and this is the very purpose of the founding of Sri Jnanakshi Educational Institutions Trust on the 6th of August 1999 and the beginning of Sri Jnanakshi Vidyaniketan School, one of its units on the 5th of June 2000 by His Holiness Paramacharya Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Tiruchi Mahaswamigal, founder of Sri Kailash Ashrama Mahasasthana and Sri Rajarajeshwari Temple, Rajarajeshwarinagar, Bangalore, and all other branches.
This ideal has been woven intrinsically into the school song composed by the grace of Divine Mother Sri Jnanakshi Rajarajeshwari and the blessings of H.H. Mahaswamiji and is being sung every day since its implementation into the school prayer way back in 2000.
Rise above the realm of ignorance (2)
Come let us join hands (2)
And rise above the realm of ignorance.
You are divine
She is divine
He is divine
All are divine little lamps
So come let us join hands (2)
And rise above the realm of ignorance.
Rise above the realm of ignorance.
Help the needy
Serve the aged
Don’t feel ever shy.
Learn your lessons
Do your homework
Don’t you ever lie.
Healthy food and healthy games and healthy company
Pleasing words and pleasing acts
Shall make you ever free.
So come let us join hands (2)
And rise above the realm of ignorance.
Rise above the realm of ignorance.
Sri Jnanakshi Vidyaniketan
Treasure House of Love and Knowledge
Diligence and Service
Truth and Courage
This is our motto.
So come let us join hands (2)
And rise above the realm of ignorance.
Rise above the realm of ignorance.
Divine Grace has facilitated a steady progress in all aspects of the school since its inception; number of students from 13 to 1420, teachers from 3 to 72, other staff from 1 to 43, buses from none to 8, a modest shed to a massive and magnificent school building and so on.
ON THE OCCASION OF THE OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE WEBSITE OF SRI JNANAKSHI VIDYANIKETAN FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL, WE PRAY TO DIVINE MOTHER SRI JNANAKSHI RAJARAJESHWARI TO GUIDE ALL ON THE PATH OF DHARMA WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION OF PEACE, PROSPERITY AND ULTIMATE PARAMANANDA OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.
yato:'bhyudayanihsreyasahsiddhih sa dharmah ||
“That, which directs and leads to the attainment of ‘abhyudayam’, overall prosperity and happiness in this world; and to ‘nihshreyas’ , attainment of Moksha, Bliss Absolute thereafter, is Dharma.”
dharmo raksati raksitah ||
Dharma protects the one who observes it.
