The 'Paryaya' system denotes transfer of power of exclusive rights of worshipping the presiding deity at the famous Lord Krishna temple here and management of Sri Krishna Mutt from one seer to another of the Astha (eight) Mutts, established by Dvaita philosopher Sri Madhwacharya 800 years ago, once in two years by turns.

The 85-year old Vishwesha Teertha Swamiji, a prominent face of the Ramjanmabhoomi movement, occupied the 'Paryaya Peetha,' also known as 'Sarvajna Peetha', in the biennial event, witnessed by tens of thousands of devotees from across the state and several political and other leaders.

Veteran BJP leader L K Advani, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, Union ministers Uma Bharti, Venkaiah Naidu, Anant Kumar and Sadananda Gowda, Tamil Nadu Finance Minister O Panneerselvam, Karnataka ministers R V Deshpande, A Manju, H K Patil and Vinay Kumar Sorake, former union minister Veerappa Moily, former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa and Oscar Fernandes, MP, were among those present.

The 'Paryaya' system was introduced in 1522 by Sri Vadirajateertha, who is considered among the highest saints in the Madhva hierarchy after Srimad Ananda Tîrtha and Sri Jayateertha.

Vishwesha Teertha, who is known for breaking some traditional social moulds like visiting Dalit colonies and for being pro-active in social sphere, had ascended the peetha in 1952, 1968, 1984 and 2000.

The Pejawar Swamiji took over his new charge at designated time, after having the Darshan of Lord Sri Krishna.

He also took the blessings of deities Sri Chandramouleshwara and Sri Anantheshwar. He then ascended the Sarvajnya Peetha, which was earlier occupied by Madhwacharya.

A grand Paryaya Darbar was later held at Shree Krishna Math, where the new Paryaya Swamiji was welcomed by Sri Kaniyoor Math Swamiji, as the town in the coastal Udupi district teemed with people.

Addressing the devotees, Advani said a new era of Paryaya had started among the eight Mutts of Udupi.

"I am happy that Pejawar Sri, for the fifth time, has become the Payarya Swamiji," he said. "It is a unique experience to participate in such a blessed event in the presence of Lord Krishna, and I am here only to express my joy for I have always got love and blessings abundantly ever since I paid my first visit here," he said. Pejawar Swamiji, in his address, stressed on doing everything for the Lord, of the Lord, and by the Lord, so that all confusions would vanish and everything would be done right.

And I (ALLAH) did not create the jinn and humans except they should worship me - Quran 51:56
He created us for the purpose of worshiping him Alone and without any partners.
Even if you are HINDU, Im MUSLIM he is merciful to all his creation. But he waits that some day my creation will recognize ME. Unless U look for him U will be in state of believing in the creation which will take U away from the TRUE GOD.
Recognise this and you do your own research how many priests in the news for wrong reason...

Dear Suresh,
QURAN answers your question :
And We (ALLAH) sent every nation a messenger, (Saying) \Worship Allah & avoid TAGHUT (Taghut means idols, pictures, man made gods, and so on) And among them were those whom ALLAH guided ( I Pray to God to include us among them). and among them were those whom ERRORS was (deservedly) decreed. So proceed through the EARTH and observe how was the END of the DENIERS."

Dear Suresh,
Y do God needs to take another gods incarnation? If God created U & ME and all that exists. Then He can control anything in what he has created. NO need for him to come down and become like his creation.
Honestly - You need to learn Islamic teaching on who is worthy of WORSHIP . QURAN explains to us beautifully...
If there were in the heavens and the earth, other gods besides ALLAH, there would have been confusion in both!! but glory to ALLAH, the lord of the throne, (High is He) above what they attribute to Him ( Quran 21:22)
Allah has not taken any SON, Nor has there ever been with Him any Deity (If there had been), then each deity would have taken what is created, and some of them would have sought to overcome others. Exalted is ALLAH above what they describe (Concerning Him) (Quran 23: 91-92).
Just PONDER - There is no God but ALLAH & Muhammad pbuh is the last & final messenger & slave of ALLAH who conveyed the oneness of God to the HUMANITY>.. U will come to know the reality of IDOLS and different Gods only If one openly & whole heartly want to know about the TRUE GOD.

Its way of telling woman folk to be careful when bathing in public & to take care of their clothes.After this incident they never bathed carelessly.
If someone steal our heart they are not thief but our beloved.
God is not human, he will take any form for his devotees, just like he came out of pillar for rescuing devotee Pralhad.
Lying to a liar for a good purpose is not wrong.
Krishna is 8th Avatar - incarnation of Lord vishnu
I KNOW THE TRUTH.
BUT YOU DID'NT KNOW TRUTH HENCE YOU have so many doubts.
This is not wrestling championship to accept any challenges.
To see god you have to shed your Ego and pride otherwise all your efforts are a waste.
Jai shri krishna.

Do U think Krishna is God
God will not peep at those women who are bathing in the sides of River
God will not steal
God is not like human
God is not a liar
Krishna is Not LORD

Do you want to know who is God...
God is the one who created all that exists..
He gives life & death
He is ONE & ONLY God who is worthy of Worship
He has no partner
He has no children
He controls everything
He is not born nor he is being born
There is none equal to HIM
More over HE is the moooooost merciful. Even if you say once \The one who put soul in me please guide me to know the TRUTH... He will surely show YOU who was KRISHNA.
TRY IT , its my challenge.. to YOU>"

Please dont make him God, He is just human being and he doesnt know the future. Only God knows future... none of his creation knows the futrue. So please bow down only to God & not to statues or 5 tym paraya peer or any idols which doesnt have any strength to help the intelligent creation of God. Recognise the TRUE GOD, and U will understand the reality of idols. NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI>

Bengaluru Jul 29: There will be a centralised system in place in Karnataka to classify asymptomatic, symptomatic and mild symptomatic persons and recommend treatment based on the severity of the cases, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Tuesday here.

"Various existing apps related to COVID-19 will be brought under one platform to get real-time information which will assist in strategising allocation of hospitals/beds to the needy. This will probably remove the delay in bed allocation and treatment which is being faced now. The patients will get all information in one phone call," Dr Sudhakar said.

Sudhakar spoke with a team of experts from the government and Infosys.

Referring to a company by name Step 1, which is providing such services in Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, the Minister said that a similar system will be implemented in the state as well.

"This company is having a team of doctors and nurses which is guiding the people whether they need hospital treatment or home isolation after they are tested positive for COVID-19. More than 70 per cent of the positive cases are being asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and are advised to go for home isolation," the minister said.

"The load on the hospitals is reduced and severe cases can be administered proper treatment. Infosys co-ordinates with the government to provide technical support for this system," Dr Sudhakar added.

Earlier during the day, the minister held a video conference with the heads of private medical colleges to review COVID preparedness.
The government has already passed guidelines to allocate 50 per cent of hospital beds for COVID patients.

Bengaluru, Jul 18: Vendors in Bengaluru are finding it hard to earn a livelihood as the state government has allowed the sale of products only for a few hours each day. The lockdown imposed by the Karnataka government on July 14 will continue till July 22.

Speaking to ANI, Vanajakshi, a local vendor said, "We took loans from banks and small financiers to run our business. But we are finding it tough to pay back as our livelihoods have been hit."
"Because of the lockdown, no one comes to buy and markets remain vacant. There was a time when the Gandhi Nagar market was filled with customers, but now it looks like a vacant playground," she added.

Mythri, an advocate, said, "Look at the conditions of vendors. It's precarious. They do not have any business at all. Even now they have been allowed to sell products till 12 noon, which is not sufficient. It's time for the government to step in and provide assistance. If the Central government can reduce corporate taxes, why can't it help them? At least it will help them pass off these difficult times. "

"They are earning through daily wages. The government imposed lockdown suddenly. Where will they go? The city market in Bengaluru is famous. At least 8,000 people come from slum areas. People here are poor. The lockdown was done suddenly and led to problems for these people," said Congress MLA Zamil Ahmed Khan.

Referring to a recent meeting with the chief minister BS Yediyurappa, he said, "During the meeting called by the CM, I suggested that food kits must be arranged for vendors. The CM said the government is providing rice and wheat but that's not enough."
