Strange features of the incarnation of Sri Madhwaru/ಆಚಾರ್ಯ ಮಧ್ವರ ಅಪೂರ್ವ ಅವತರಣ

SUMMARY: Sri Poornaprajna started descending from the Himalaya mountain, appearing like a horrifying lion to bad cultured people, like a pleasurable and charming person to the righteous and so on. Sri Madhwaru appeared differently to different persons, depending on the nature and culture of the persons who saw him.

This stanza provides enough evidence to the mystic powers that Sri Madhwaru possessed.

The word “SarvaDheehi” used in this stanza means Sri Madhwaru had his mind immersed in the thought and memory of Sri Vishnu, always.

Disciples overwhelmed with joy on seeing their Guru Sri Madhwa back/

SUMMARY: Like Sri Hanumantha returned after crossing the ocean and seeing Seetha Devi, like Sri Krishna retrieved the divine beed Syamantaka from Jambavantha, like Bheemasena brought the distinct flower Pink water-lily (SauganDhika flower), Sri Madhwaru restored calmness for his disciples and followers.

It may be recalled that when Sri Hanumantha returned from Lanka, Angada, Jambavantha and other prominent monkeys became very happy. Earlier, they were worried for not accomplishing the task within the deadline that Sugreeva had fixed and they had decided to observe fast till death. Sri Krishna had to unnecessarily face criticism from everyone for allegedly killing friends for the sake of a divine beed called Syamantaka. He had to fight with Jambavantha, who indulged in the war as it did not occur to his mind that Sri Krishna was none other than Sri Rama, an incarnation of Sri Vishnu. Draupadi wanted that Saugandhika or the pink water-lily flower, which was fetched by Bheemasena. By doing so, Pandavas became very happy. Similarly, the disciples and followers of Acharya Madhwaru were forlorn for his long absence. They were overwhelmed with joy when Sri Madhacharyaru returned.

Receives the ‘BhikSha’ offered by Agnisharma and others simultaneously/

कृत्स्नमाददयमित्यविस्मयः कृत्स्नमत्तुमलमॆष हि क्षयॆ॥७॥

SUMMARY: When Agnisharma and five-six Brahmins offered the ‘Bhiksha’ separately, but at the same time, Sri Madhwaru consumed the entire quantity; it was not a matter of surprise at all because he is the incarnation of Lord Vayu and because is he not the same Lord Vayu, who, at the time of Great Dissolution of the universe (Pralay), swallows everything in a gulp?

‘Bhiksha’ is a traditional custom under which food is offered to the Seer of a Mutt and the group of his disciples as a mark of respect and honour. ‘Bhiksha’ is rated highly among the ‘services’ offered to religious heads.

It so happened that five-six devotees, including Agnisharma, wanted to offer the ‘Bhiksha’ to Sri Madhwaru, he did not have so many days at his disposal to stay there for a few days and receive the honour, one after the other. He could not refuse the offer of ‘bhiksha’ by devotees. Therefore, he not only agreed but also consumed the food offered one after the other, in succession.

This incident bears testimony to the fact that Sri Madhwaru, an incarnation of Lord Vayu, could expand and contract his belly to the desired size and could digest any quantity of food offered to him. However, he is not known as wolf-bellied because he could ‘contract’ too.
