The Bhajan is in essence a “definition” of “Vaishnav”.

  Vaishnav jan to tene kahiye je

   [One who is a vaishnav]
   PeeD paraayi jaaNe re
   [Knows the pain of others]
   Par-dukhkhe upkaar kare toye
   [Does good to others, esp. to those ones who       are in misery]
   Man abhimaan na aaNe re
   [Does not let pride enter his mind]
   Vaishnav…

   SakaL lok maan sahune vande

   [A Vaishnav, Tolerates and praises the entire         world]
   Nindaa na kare keni re
   [Does not say bad things about anyone]
   Vaach kaachh man nishchaL raakhe
   [Keeps his/her words, actions and thoughts           pure]
   Dhan-dhan janani teni re
   [O Vaishnav, your mother is blessed (dhanya-       dhanya)]
   Vaishnav…

   Sam-drishti ne trishna tyaagi
   [A Vaishnav sees everything equally, rejects           greed and avarice]
   Par-stree jene maat re
   [Considers someone else’s wife/daughter as         his mother]

Jivha thaki asatya na bole

[The tongue may get tired, but will never speak lies]
Par-dhan nav jhaalee haath re
[Does not even touch someone else’s property]
Vaishnav…

Moh-maaya vyaape nahi jene
[A Vaishnav does not succumb to worldly attachments]
DriDh vairaagya jena man maan re
[Who has devoted himself to staunch detachment to worldly pleasures]
Ram naam shoon taaLi laagi
[Who has been addicted to the elixir coming by the name of Ram]
SakaL tirath tena tan maan re
[For whom all the divya desams(the 108 centres of inspiration) are in the mind]
Vaishnav…

VaN-lobhi ne kapaT-rahit chhe
[Who has no greed and deceit]
Kaam-krodh nivaarya re
[Who has renounced lust of all types and anger]
BhaNe Narsaiyyo tenun darshan karta
[The poet Narsi will like to see such a person]
KuL ekoter taarya re
[By whose virtue, the entire family gets salvation]
Vaishnav…

 Ramanujacharya’s life history depicts this depth of a true Vaishnava that goes beyond what   this bhajan conveys. Every single incident in His life history is a clear mark of all such great virtues   and  more! We should be proud to have Statue of Equality being dedicated to such principled soul.   His wisdom is a gateway to liberation not from only pain of the physical body – but also from flaws in   intellect, ill health of mind, or bondage of the soul in a limited body!

 Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji’s strict adherence to all the principles of a true Vaishnava is laying out the   foundation for many generations! Every single person who comes to visit Swamiji says only one thing:   ‘Unforgettable pleasant vibrant experience!’

‘ధనం ఉన్న వారు కాదు పెద్ద మనుషులు, పెద్ద మనసు ఉన్న వారు నిజమయిన పెద్ద మనుషులు’, said Sri Ahobila Ramanuja Jeeyar Swami.

On a mission to invite everyone and spread the word of Ramanujacharya, Sri Ahobila Ramanuja Jeeyar Swami went to Pedha Shahpur thanda near by the JIVA campus in Sri Ram Nagar. They heard from Swami about the 1048 Kunda Yagna as part of Ramanuja Sahasrabdi celebrations in the months of March and April 2018. This Yagna requires 1,60,000 Kgs of pure ghee. They announced their contribution of 30,000 rupees worth of pure ghee to be used in the Yagna. More than 100 youngsters happily and willingly registered to volunteer during those days in the asram for any kind of service. These people are all lambadis and primarily low income families. But, They are the ones with ‘Rich hearts’! Don’t you think so?

It is believed that a squirrel began to do its part in order to quickly build the bridge so that Sri Rama and Sitha Devi are back together. It was the love-filled thought behind the act which made the squirrel an inspiration for anyone who can do at least a small bit for a huge great endeavour such as this! An endeavour that is selfless and is aimed at enriching lives of everyone who wants to achieve the prime purpose of life through Ramanujacharya’s teachings.

According to sastras, it is through Agni that we offer our thankfulness to Lord for giving us every opportunity to live well, serve well and be the right instruments in the hands of Lord. And thus, such Yagna will convey millions of people’s gratitude for giving us the Acharya, Ramanuja who has taught us the way to lead the current life while uncompromising on the essence of Vedic truths.
