BIRTH AND CHILDHOOD OF ADWAITA ACHARYA (1434-1559 A.D):---

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND: ---

The Mughal Empire had extended from the north India in about the fifteen century .Through the Mughals were the rules of Bengals, yet the responsibility of administration was vested with the Hindu Kayasthas.Out of fear of the rules the either changed their religion or accepted titles like khan, Mullick given by them and extorted taxes from the common people by toutocher and thus pleased the rulers.

            The Educated circle of the society, like book worms used to be busy reading and teaching old manuscripts. The objective of their lives was to enter into agreement over holy law books, grammar, history, logic, debates and exhibiting their mastery through victory or defeat. Most of the people were dependent on lower. Tantra based on beastly conduct, occultrities for causing one’s death , persecute Someone black art worshipping of evil spirit as ultimate dharma. This had no relation with with attaining God.

         The number of pure Vaishnava devotees was insignificant and they kept themselves conceated in the society as very humble person’s .In this dark social milieu the main centres of learning were Shantipur, Bhattapalli or Nabadwip etc. In terms of scholarliness Nabadwip was above all. God in the frame of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu possibly selected Nabadwip and Shantipur for the cleansing of dharma. Revival of the Vaishnava dharma afflicted with inferiority complex would be possible only by accepting Vaishnava dharma after attaining the ultimate boundary of knowledge and it would also be possible to attract the Vedantist, monotheists towards the dharma of love devotion by taking sannays Espoused by them. Shree Chaitanya had done just this in his own life.

               God sends his companions to the earth prior to His advent. Such a thing also happened in the Tretayuga and The Dwaparyuga.Soon after five thousand years had elapsed in the kaliyuga, before the advent of Bhagwan as Shree Chaitanya, He sent down Adwaita Acharya Guru, the giver of mantra, parents and beloved companions.

BIRTH AND CHILDHOOD OF ADWAITA ACHARYA (1434-1559 A.D):---

Regarding the advent of Adwaita Prabhu.Ishan Nagar,the great devotee of Prabhu and writer of “Adwaita  Prakash” had described and written that Mahadev Shiashmbhu” sung a hymn in praise of Mahavishnu Harinaraya, the preserver of the world Mahavishnu embraced Shivashambhu  and together they assumed one form the Harihar.

            That combined form prayed to the Supreme Lord to established Vaishnava dharma of equality based on God’s name and love and devotion for the few awakening of the neglected and oppressed lower caste people .Then there was a divine message – “Oh Harihar descend on the eastern part India, and prepare the ground in order to erase religious opposition through the form that you adopt and by our combined strength.”

                           In does days the king of Laurpargana of Sunamganj (now in Bangladesh) subdivision of Shreehatta was Kamasanarayan (Ganesh). His prime minister was Nrisingha Ojha.Kuber Tarka Panchanan was his able son who later became renunciates. His wife Lava Devi had a dream one day that the effulgent ‘Harihar’ manifested in her Lotus heart and said – “I am coming to you “Many gods were singing hymns in His praise .It may be remembered that later an astrologer also with godly looks made a forecast.” A divine child will be born to you who will preach the dharma of truth.”

                          “ The Devine child was born on Shukla Saptami day (seventh day  of  the lunar fortnight) that is also called Makori Saptami in the auspicious month of of Magh (January – February).This was about 1434 A.D.The child had complexion like bright copper, and as his eyes. Were large, rosy as the petals of the lotus, he was named Kamalaksha.

                              As Kamalaksha’s father was the of the king’s court and minister. The prince was Kamalaksha’s friend. The prime of the kingdom where tantra was mainstay of religion started arguing strongly in favour of tantric rities.Sacrifice and Worship of the idol of mother god only. Kamalaksha then gave a loud roar. The prince fainted following this. The king’s physician came and declared him dead. The king and other accused kamalaksha of murder.Kamalaksha then made a promise saying that the prince would get back his life if animal sacrifice was stopped in the kindom.when the king accepted this kamalaksha put “Krishna charnamrita.” into the mouth of the prince and he stood-up. Vaishnava sadhan started taking place in a sweet – bhaba,discarding animal sacrifice and Panchamakar,(Wine ,meat, fish, posture and sexsualinter course collectively, five essential tantric practices).As a result of this Bengal has contributed great ascetics, loving. While staying with his parents between his age of 9 and 12, he finished studies of all scriptures laws of grammar meaning within 3 years owing to his sharp intelligence.  

ACQURING SHELTER UNDER SADGURU:-

The principal introducer of Premabhakti (love and devotion) stream among four main Vaishnava communities is Madhawacharya sect. Premabhakti was delivered by the supreme Lord Narayana to the creator god Brahma, and Brahma passed this rare system on to his son Narada and introduced the Vaishnave dharma in the world. The speciality of this sect is to transmit pure Premabhakti among sages and ascetics through the most secret power –impregnated people.By a divine confidence the kindest deliverer of love, preceptor of the travelling ascetics Shree Madhavendra Puri was present in the ashram at that time. He started hearing the interpretation of bhakti shastra on having a darshan of Puriji. The guru and disciple recognised one another Kamalaksha bathed in the stream of bhakti and prema’s joy on getting deeksha from Puriji.

 Puri Maharaj said, “Kamalaksha, you are an ocean of kindness, it is rare to find such a selfless stance for the living elements complete your pilgrimage to the rest holy places and return home, I shall join you there itself “when he returned home, following pilgrimage, Madhavendrapuri reached Kamalaksha’s house at Shantipur .Puriji addressed him as Adwaitacharya there itself .This is because he had come to know by inner vision that kamalaksha was a part avatar of Harihar. He named this inseparability “Adwaita” he called him “Acharya” as he knew that Adwaita would propagate the tenets of dualism God and the devotee by teaching Bhakti and topics of pure devotion in place of the formless, attributes, “I am that “theory prevalent in the Vedanta. Since then kamalaksha was known as Adwaitacharya .
