On behalf of Sri Badadha Ramachyra - the Vamshashthharu of Sri Bichali Appancharayaru , I wish to provide you all with regular update of current flood situation at Bichali.

 

 

 

           

Devotees help needed to restore Bichali

 

At this juncture real help and support is needed to our Bichali the Siddhi Kshetra.Where Rayaru lived for 13 years in Bichali with Sri Appanacharyaru. Japadakatti is full of sanctity owing to Sri Sripadarajaru,Sri Vibudhendrateertharu,Sri Vyasarajaru,Sri Jitamitraru and Sri Raghavendrateertharu.

 

The flood has washed and flowed away completely leaving the Sacred idols of Japadakatti and the Ek Shila Brindavana intact.

 

All the brass and the copper vessels, food grains, Pooja Saamgris  worth more than Rs. Ten lakhs have been simply swept away and snatched by the icy hand of flood.Further the structures of dining hall, store room, kitchen room are no more. So these things have to be restored soon.The 400 years old Holy house of Sri Appanacharya  is also needed some urgent  minor repair.

 

So we all have have to contribute, and donate liberally to bring the originality of our Sanctum and to carry on the regular religious activities as before. Anna Daana etc.

Thanks for the contribution to the noble cause. Online transfer reached properly.

 

  • The flow of Mother Tungabhadra is as usual normal. Though the devastation is to the  houses, the Sacred idols are quite safe, it is amazing that even the silver Danadashthhaka to the Ek Shila Brindavana is not washed, when the 13 pillars road of  Madhvaram Bridge has completely washed away and the means of transport is fully cut off.
  • The Sanyasi Katti in the river Tungabhadra is clearly visible from the Bichali and the joy of our heart knew no bonds. The Flood has cleaned and cleared the thick trees and a large heap of Sand. Very nice to see Sanyasi Katti. It was the place where Rayaru and Appanacharyaru  used to sit and discuss pertaining to Gnyana and Madhwa Philosophy.
  • The repair work of the house of Sri Appanacharya is at progress.
  • Even under such condition Devotees are coming to Bichali Japadakatti Ek Shila Brindavana.
  • Construction of storeroom, dining hall and kitchen cube have already started.
  • The Goshaala infrastructure is ready. Only the roof is to be repaired.
  • Very Good News to all of us from the auspicious day of Deepavali the Naivedya, Vaishavadeva, Hastodaka and Anna Daana has begun at the Japadakatti.
  • The timely action of Sri  Appanacharya Vamshasthharu  saved Our Cows and the calves of the Japadakatti, they  are quite safe, hail and healthy in our Bhikshaalaya - Bichali.Restoration work is in progress.
