How to gain Positive Energy from the Sacred Tombs?

Giants’ Tomb of Dorgali at Sardinia

Giants’ tomb of Dorgali at Sardinia has been popular for the magnetic field around it. The magnetic field is powerful enough and releases positive energy. Angela Corrias, an Italian journalist specializing in travel writing has a blog - In Atlantis, in a Giants’ tomb where she reveals her personal experience.

She has mentioned clearly in her blog - Many people take the Giants' Tomb as a place to restore from daily stress and go there to absorb some of the energies that our ancestors managed to identify in those strategic spots.

It is indeed true that positive energy is released from some of the ancient and sacred tombs.

Tombs of saints who attained Jeeva Samadhi

In southern India there are too many sacred tombs which not only give out positive energy but also have healing powers. Ancient times have witnessed enough of Jeeva Samadhi in this part of the world. Jeeva means alive and Samadhi means tomb. Of course, a higher level of concentrated meditation or dhyana is also called as Samadhi . But here the meaning of Samadhi is related to the tomb.

Jeeva Samadhi is attained by a person imbued with eternal life force after his kundalini gets awakened through prolonged meditation and by gaining yogic powers. Kundalini is best explained in my topic - Supernatural powers and Indian Yogis in the Himalayas(click on archive in the side bar).

How people gain positive energy:

1. They need to have faith in the person who has entered the tomb alive. It is very much like having the faith and belief in god himself.
2. The person who wants to get his desires fulfilled wakes up before sunrise i.e. between 5.30 - 6.00AM.
3. Takes a head bath either in a nearby lake, river or water body.
4. Wears dry and clean clothes after the bath.
5. Fasting is done by most of the people who want to please the guru. If at all food is taken, never take non - vegetarian as food on that particular day.
6. In some places they allow to bath the tomb with the river water or milk. In some places devotees are not allowed to go near the tomb and always a gap is maintained so that the person inside the tomb doesn’t get disturbed.
7. Chanting begins with the name of the Guru(saint). For example if its Raghavendra, the chanting mantra will be Sri Raghavendraya Namah .
8. Circumambulate the tomb 108 times. Or with a rosary in hand meditate sitting on a straw carpet. The main intension here is body shouldn’t have direct contact with the ground while meditating. If body touches the ground the power gained by meditation will be lost to the earth below. One round rosary has 108 beads. With image of the Guru present in mind or directly gazing at the tomb with total concentration chant the mantra for 108 times.
9. Never divert the attention or leave for any other work until the mantra is uttered 108 times.
10. On some week days such as Thursday is believed to be very auspicious to please the Gurus in the tomb. On these days the mantra chanting will be very fruitful.

The main intent of Jeeva Samadhi

By spiritual practices, the person who attains Jeeva Samadhi has control over his breath and doesn’t allow the body to die. Hence the body cells don't get damaged. Functioning of the body is stopped by his / her own will. The person in samadhi fixes the mind permanently with the supreme god and stops functioning. Then a tomb is built around the person who sits still without breathing. Body never gets decayed even after thousands of years. Magnetic force and positive energy acts as a life force in the body. Sometimes the time limit for the samadhi status depends upon the saint's bio-magnetic strength, which may vary in terms of hundreds of years. Until then, the soul of the person in samadhi state will continue to bless the devotees. As an invisible helper or Unseen master, guides the human race for their well-being.

Brindavan the sacred tomb at Mantralaya

Great yogis, gurus and sacred people with their miracles had changed the minds of people in society at that time. Their words and deeds had enough power to mesmerize everyone around them. After they felt they had done enough for the people and society they attained Jeeva Samadhi on an auspicious day. For the outside world they had passed away to a heavenly abode. But their souls were still alive and created miracles every now and then.

One such well known Saint is Guru Raghavendra Swamy. During the period between 1595 and 1671 he lived as one of the most respected Hindu saints. He is well-known for preaching the vaishnavism(worship of Vishnu as the supreme God) and Sri Madhvacharya's Dvaita philosophy. He ascended Brindavana(his Jeev Samadhi) at Mantralayam in present day Andhra Pradesh state in the year 1671.

Before he attained the Jeeva Samadhi he had advised his disciples to start arranging slabs and build the walls of the tomb around him once the rolling of rosary beads by fingers in his hand become still. Mantralayam is now a pilgrimage destination. People believe that he would help the society and mankind to come-out from troubles and miseries for nearly 700 years. His tomb Brindavan to this day has positive energy around it and has created countless miracles.

Brindavan or Samadhi, the sacred tomb

Raghavendra Swamy and Sir Thomas Munro during the British Colonial rule:

Sir Thomas Munro, a Collector at Bellary in Karnataka State had come across an apparition of Raghavendra Swamy. This incident took place in the year 1801. He recorded in the Madras Districts Gazetteer as having spoken with Raghavendra Swamy in English over an endowment proposal. He had to ultimately quash the proposal as per the Swamy's advice. Munro also served as the Governor of Madras(Chennai) later.

Sant Jnaneshwar of Alandi, Maharashtra

Great saint Sant Jnaneshwar, also known as Jnanadeva, is well known for writing the Jnaneshwari, a commentary on Bhagavadgeetha. He was a great saint who lived in Maharashtra state of India. Born in 1275 A.D. at a place by name Alandi. Jnanadeva also wrote many abhangas (devotional songs) to Lord Vithala(Lord Vishnu's another form).

Both Sant Namdev and Jnanadev went on a pilgrimage to northern India. On their return to Alandi it was 13th day of the dark fortnight of Karthika month (according to Hindu calendar) in the year 1296, Jnanadev entered into a cave alive and it was closed like a tomb. People believe that his brother and sister followed him into samadhi within a year and a half. A temple was constructed there and thousands of devotees visit the place even today. He was just 21 years old when he attained Jeev samadhi.

Navabrindavan at Anegondi

Navabrindavan or the nine sacred tombs

Anegondi is a small village located on the north banks of the Tungabhadra river in Koppal district of Karnataka state. It is on the opposite bank of the Vittala Temple. Anegondi was once the capital of Vijayanagara Empire. Nine of the later saints of Madhvacharya's order are eternally resting and still alive in the Navabrindavan(the nine sacred tombs). After midnight men on ferry who move around the place have experienced seeing the spirits of these saints in the form a brilliant glowing light or sometimes also as humans.

The nine saints residing in the sacred tombs are:

1.    Sri Padmanabha Tirtha
2.    Sri Jayathirtha/Sri Raghuvarya
3.    Sri Kavindra Thirtha
4.    Sri Vageesha Thirtha
5.    Sri Vyasaraja Thirtha
6.    Sri Sreenivasa Thitha
7.    Sri Rama Thirtha
8.    Sri Sudheendra Thirtha
9.    Sri Govinda Odeyaru

Tourists reach Navabrindavan by ferries in the summer season. The place is unreachable during rainy season.
Many temples in Tamilnadu and Andhara Pradesh have one or more Jeev Samadhi in their locality. People get relieved from stress and feel better when they visit such Temples. So they are gaining more popularity. These sacred tombs formed around the shrines are believed to possess good magnetic fields. Worshippers experience peace of mind and desires are fulfilled. There are many instances of miracles that took place after having prayed at such tombs.

Jeeva Samadhi places in and around Tamilnadu and Andhra Pradesh states:

I believe positive energy flows from sacred places. That's why I constantly visit temples.
I was not aware about the places you describe in this article. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Vinaya, Thanks for your comments.
Those are the sacred tombs of saints or yogis who meditated for many years to obtain siddhis. The siddhis they gain are fully utilized for the welfare of mankind. The powers they gained have positive energy in itself. So the tombs become powerful with divine energy.

Yogi Sripadaraja in the sacred tomb and his supernatural powers

Swami Sripadaraja's sacred tomb, the Brindavan


Yativarya Sripadaraja swami was the Guru of Sri Vyasaraja who was well-known as Sri Raghavendra in his next incarnation. Sripadaraja, with his divine supernatural powers helped people who were in trouble. Sripadarja mutt is at Narasimha theertha, Mulbagal taluk.  Sripadaraja Brindavan is a sacred tomb in Mulbagal. It is a place where many miracles occur even to this day.

Sainthood of Sripadaraja Swami:

Sripadaraja (also called Laxminarayana thirtha or Sripadaraya) was born in Abburu (1404– 1502 AD) in Chennapatna taluk of Karnataka state. He was born to a very pious brahmin couple named Sheshagiri and Giriyamma. Hindu devotees and his followers believe that he was the incarnation (Avatara) of Dhruva. When Lakshminarayana  grew up, he had to take the cattle for grazing and return home before the sunset. 

Once while he was grazing his cattle in the evening hours, he was approached by Sri Swarnavarnathirtha belonging to Sri Padmanabha Thirtha Samsthana. Abbur was then the seat of Sri Brahmanya Teertharu. Sri Swarnavarnathirtha swami was on his way to Abbur from  Srirangapatna. He asked the young lad Lakshminarayana about the distance he had to travel to reach Abbur. Lakshminarayana demonstrated his gift of gab to Swarnavarnathirtha swami saying - "Look at me and my herds, gaze at the sky and realize the distance". His answer turned the pontiff’s mind to make the boy his pupil and took him into sainthood.  Later, the same boy who was so clever with words, composed devotional hymns in kannada and thus laid a foundation to Dasa Sahitya. He had contributed to the Dwaita philosophy and the Haridasa Sahitya.

Sripadaraja comes in the parampara(lineage) of Padmanabhathirtha Mutt. Sri Padamanabha thirtha was the direct disciple of Sri Madhwacharya. This mutt was called as Padmanabhathirtha mutt before Sripadaraja took over. After him entering the brindavan, because of the great divinity, it became well-known as Sripadarja mutt. 

Vijayanagar empire, during his lifetime had supported enough with its well heightened social and political circumstances. He was a guru (master) of Sri Vyasathirtha  (Vyasathirtha-the guru of Purandaradasa  and Kanakadasa). The well-known king of Vijayanagara empire, Hakka, requested Sripadaraja swami to be his Rajaguru ( the King’s chief advisor priest). But swami Sripadaraja declined to do so due to his old age, but instead sent his disciple, Sri Vyasaraja. Thus Sri Vyasaraya had become the Rajaguru of the Vijayanagara kings. Sri Brahmanya thirtha and Lakshminarayana were cousins and nearly of the same age.

In 1471 A.D., King Chaluva Narasimhan of Chandragiri took refuge under Swami Sripadaraja to get rid of brahmahathya dosha(the dangerous circumstances one has to face due to the fault done in one’s life). Sripadaraja saved him through his powers of penance. In thankfulness he seated him on his lion throne and conducted kanakabishekha( shower of tiny golden flowers on the gurus head). On that occasion Sri Vyasaraja thirtha composed and sang the famous devotional song Mahime Salade.

The Contributions done by Sripadaraja to Madhwa society:
Vagvajra was his only work on Sanskrit literature.
Some of his important compositions were Bhramarageeta, Venugeeta, Gopigeeta, Madhwanama.

Devotional songs composed by Swami Sripadaraja :

Swami Sripadaraja, a great scholar and poet, was also good in singing devotional songs in Kannada. Swami Sripadaraja is believed to be the pioneer of Dasa Sahitya. He is referred to as Dasa Pitamah (Paternal grand father of Dasas or eldest person among Dasas). He composed the devotional songs using Ranga Vittala as his pen name.

Few devotional songs according to Tarathamya (hierarchy) are mentioned here:
  • Narayana
  • Lakshmi
  • Vayu, Hanumantha
  • Shiva
Some of his famous devaranama (or devotional songs) are – Bhushanake Bhushana, Baro Manege govinda, Nee ittahange iruveno hariye, Kangalidyathako kaveri rangana nodada, Daya madi salahayya...

Being his disciple, Swami Vyasathirtha also composed songs in praise of his guru.

Goddess Ganga( River Ganges) appeared in dreams:

Sripadaraja thirtha returned to Mulabagal from Srirangam when Sri Swarnavarna thirtha entered the brindavana alive. Mulbagal or Mulabagilu, which was then under the Vijayanagar empire rule, was made the center of all his activities (i.e. for his daily worship of gods, discourses, propogating Acharya Madhva's teachings etc). 

Once Sripadaraja swami in his old age, wished to go for a holy dip in river Ganga, he found it difficult to make the journey all the way to North India, because of his aging. It is believed that goddess Ganga appeared in his dreams and said that she would be present at the Narasimha theertha, a holy pond at Mulabagal and that he can take the holy dips there itself. Devotees believe that Ganges stayed there forever. A holy dip in Narasimha Theertha is equivalent to a dip in the river Ganga itself.  

Entered the sacred tomb alive (or Brindavana Pravesha) :

In 1504 AD, Swami Sripadaraja chose one of his disciples as his heir and named him Sri Hayagreeva thirtha. Then he entered the brindavan alive at Sri Narasimha Thirtha near Mulbagal. It was an auspicious day, Jyeshta shuddha chathurdashi. The devotees and followers still feel his presence at the Mulabagilu brindavan.

The below typed verse on Sripadaraja swami shows his greatness and fame that has spread far and wide.

kale phalaati surudrumah chintnmanir api yachane daataa |
vararthi sakalam abhiishtam darshana matraat shripadarajo munih||
Meaning of the verse – Chintamani(sacred bead), Kalpavriksha(holy tree that gives everything), etc. are celestial treasures that give whatever one wants, when prayed before them. But, Swami Sripadaraja, fulfills all the desires by a mere darshan(visit) to his brindavan or even by just the remembrance of his name.

The world wide devotees of the sacred tomb Brindavan at Mulbagal:

A man by name Ranganath Rao of Chennai, now residing at Newyork, always dreamt of a yogi who appeared before him and led him towards the glass house. At first, he neglected whatever he saw and never thought much about it. But later he came to know that there was some unknown fact hidden behind the dream. One day he also saw the Yogi's image appearing on the wall of his home at Newyork. He was shocked at once. Next time when he had the dream again he asked the yogi where the tomb was located and the distance that he had to travel. After he came to know about the directions, he immediately left to Bangalore by flight. From there he went straight to Mulabagal which is located in Kolar district. He was shocked to see the same glass house and the tomb which he had already seen in his dreams.

He went back to USA happily, after taking the divine blessings from the swami. He took along with him the mantrakshatha and gave it to all his fellow Indians and told them about his dreams and the truth behind it. Luckily,  whoever took the mantrakshatha had good growth in their life and they thanked Ranganath Rao for the same. 

Even after he attained the Jeeva Samadhi (entering tomb alive) at Narasimha theertha, the swami continued to shower his divine blessings and helping the people in the society. The place where he attained the Jeeva Samadhi is a powerful place filled with divine energy, due to the presence of god Sri Yoga Narasimha swami. Sacred tombs are called Brindavan. There are also 12 other samadhis at the same place. Kananda film actor late Dr. Rajkumar had come to the place to seek the blessings and become a singer in movies. He got a chance to sing after he took the holy mantrakshatha( rice consecrated with mantras)  from the place. He told this openly before everyone, later. Even Tamil film actor, Mr. Rajanikanth  had come to the place whenever he came for the film shooting nearby. He was never let down in life because of the divine blessings.

Many of the devotees who had no children were blessed with children because of Sripadaraja swami’s blessings.

Another man,  Mr. Bhima Rao, once a great alcoholic had lost all his money drinking. He had lost nearly 20 lakh rupees with this bad habit. He was left out with only Rs.5000 when he realized his mistake. He rushed to the spot and cried before the sacred tomb for the blunder created by him in his life. He was later blessed by the swami and he is at present a big millionaire.

His brother-in-law was once hospitalized because of stroke and kidney failure simultaneously. Doctor had lost all hopes. Death was inevitable for the patient.  But Mr. Bhima Rao had great faith in the swami. So, he immediately went to the Swami’s Brindavan and prayed for his brother-in-law. He took the mantrakshatha from the place and put it over the forehead of his brother-in-law. After a few hours the patient showed signs of recovery.  His both kidneys started working normally. Bhima Rao thanked the swami in his mind.
