Power of Guru Stotram

As a ardant devotee of our Bhagavan Guru Ragavendra swamy, we all know the importance of Guru Stotram. This was authored by his ardent devotee Sri Appanacharya on the day of Bridavanam prevesam and when Sri Appanacharya reached reached Mantralayam by crossing the Tungabadra river flood, he was not able to see our Guru's face and he stopped the stotram and wept before Guru's brindavan. The first miracle that our Baghavan did after attaining Jeeva Samadhi in Mantralayam Bridavanam is to complete the Guru Stotram by saying "sakshee Hya Stotra hi" which means "the truth of this is witnessed by Lord Hayagreeva himself"

Since Guru himself completed the stotram this is so powerful and it has been blessed by Guru himself.

Other thing that we need to note is even while authoring this stotram by Sri Appanacharya, the flood in Tungabadra river gave way to Sri Appanacharya to rush to see his beloved Baghavan and Master.

From the day on Mantralayam Brindavanam prevesham to this day, this Guru Stotram is being recited by thousands and thousands of people across the globle. Any devotee of our beloved Baghavan Guru will know the power of stotram. The three important stotram that all devotee of our Guru are

1. Baghavan Guru Raghavendra Swamy's Moola Mantram which is
   "OM SRI RAGHAVENDRAYA NAMAHA"

2. Poojayaya Raghavendrayaa satya dharma ratayacha
   Bajatham kalpakavirukshaya namatham Kamathenuvey

3. Guru Stotram.

All these have very unique power and reciting it with devotion and pure mind will take is to the lotus feet of our Baghavan Guru Raghavendra swamy.

Best way to recite this Guru Stotram is in the morning after taking bath. Procedure is, take a glass of water and keep it before the picture of Guru Baghavan Raghavendra swamy and start reciting the stotram. At the end of the stotram, distribute the water as a theertham to all the members in the family. This water is so holy and powerful before it gets the power of stotram.
