I have completely surrendered to Mantralaya Rayaru and feel that this birth, one Janma is not sufficient to cover and describe the whole matter of our Sri Raghavendrateertharu. My whole little effort is only the introductory preface of this Yatiraat. Several times I have visited Mantralaya still the hunger of visiting this sanctum is not satisfied. Always the heart is filled with the lurking desire of seeing Mantralaya Rayaru.The inward eyes see and fill in the heart the Holy personality of Yatiraat Gurusarvabhoumaru. Always with a mild smile (Hasanmukha ­ Mandasmita), sitting in the Brindavana with Padmasana holding the JapaMaala,wearing theTulasimaala always remembering Sri Hari and whole heartedly blessing the devotees. 

Rayaru takes the Seva from all the sections of society irrespective of their caste and creed. There is no barrier of narrow mindedness

Manchale became Mantralaya by Sri RaghavendrateerthaGurusarvabhoumaru, Bichchale became Bhikshaalaya by Sri Appanacharyaru. Appanacharya always lived together with Rayaru, did the Rayar seva and found the truth of real values of devotional importance.Today Bhikshaalaya Sri Appanacharya is on the top of the list of Mantralaya Devotees.Sri Krishnavadhootaru another greater devotee of Rayaru has said in Sri Raghavendra Tantra is definitely true: Bhikshaalaya Appanaryaaya Namaha

Our heart will not permit to depart from Mantralaya and Bhikshaalaya when we are there. But our duty, the worldly bondage make us to return with the heavy heart.

The devotion towards Sri Raghavendrateertharu is the ultimate truth and is the most simple and effective way to reach Sri Hari.Sri GuruJagannathaDasaru has rightly said: "NAMBI KETTAVARILLAVO EE GURUGALA"
