Family Outing - Dad & Mom's 32nd year Marriage Anniversary

27th October 2012 :-

It was 27th October 2012.. It was a special day for our family. It was 32nd year Marriage Anniversary of my Dad and Mom. On account of this special moment, a family outing was arranged and myself personally was very much happy and excited to enjoy each second of the moments to come with my family members.

Just before we started our journey to Mysore.....

 Clock ticked 8:50:32 in the morning, we had planned to visit Lord Shiva @ Nanjangud and our mutt, Sri Vyasaraja Mutt @ T Narasipur, both located near Mysore.. Dasara Celebrations had just come to an end in Mysore.. It was a government holiday also at Bangalore on account of Bakrid. The route to Mysore was not so good to travel as the traffic on the route was hectic as soon as we started to move towards Mysore after Rajarajeshwarinagar. But somehow we reached Mysore at nearly bright and hot afternoon 1.00PM. It nearly 4 hours to reach..

We directly moved to Mysore Palace soon after reaching Mysore to have darshan of Sri Anjaneya (Praanadevaru) on successful reach to Mysore. Sri Praanadevaru at the entrance of the Palace was installed by Sri Arjuna (one among the Five Pandavas in Mahabaratha).

Post lunch we planned to move on to Nanjangud at 5.30PM. The time we reached the temple was auspicious. Priests were doing Abhisheka to Lord Shiva. Finished Tulabhara Seva at the temple premises and left back from Nanjangud to reach back to my cousin's place at Mysore. Day ended with a healthy laughter with the family members.

28th October 2012 :-

Got up bit early at 4.00AM. We had planned to start early to Tirumakoodalu Narasipur to visit the original mutt belonging to Sri Vyasaraja Parampare at Narsipur. Any plans without the seal of the lord cannot be a success. Plans changed and we had to leave only at 9.00AM and we reached Narsipur at 11.00AM. Had darshan of 108 Praanadevaru installed by Sri Vidyavaachaspati Teertharu of Sri Vyasaraja Mutt, Brindavana of Sri Vidyavaachaspatiteertharu and Sri Sheshachandrikacharyaru.

Later on, we moved towards Sosale, where we had darshan of some yati's of Sri Vyasaraja Mutt Parampare. Indeed we must thank Sri Narasimha Murthy (Caretaker of Sri Mutt at Sosale) for providing us valuable information on the yati's of Sri Vyasaraja Parampare. Also had the darshan of Sri Gunja Narasimha near by.

Experienced a unique way of travelling on the boat on the river Kapila to reach back to the mutt at Narsipur to finish our Teertha Prasada after the Mahaa Mangalarati to Sri Sheshachandrikacharyaru. 

On the way back to Bangalore, visited a temple called "Sapta Matrukeyaru". Pravati Devi blesses the devotees in 7 different forms at this venue. This temple is located in the Village near Kamaravadi located after Sri Gunja Narasimha Temple on the route.

Clock ticked to 3.50PM, by the time we left the temple at Kamaravadi and reached Bangalore at 9.30PM.. A Successful Family outing was finished...
