Sri Rama was born on the ninth day of the brighter fortnight of caitra. On that day the idol of Krishna is decorated with bow and arrow instead of the usual churning rod and rope. Special service is arranged in the noon. Car festival takes place in the night.

Vasantootsava

From aksaya trtiiyaa to the full moon day of the month of vaisaakha special vasantootsava or the festival of spring is arranged every day. The mantapa puuja, which is usually held in the mantap in front of the sanctum sanctorum, is now celebrated in the vasanta mahal during these days.

Prathamaikaadasii

The eleventh day in the bright fortnight of the month of aasaadha is known as prathamaikaadasii or sayanii eekaadasii. The next four months are known as the period of caaturmaasya. It is believed that during this period God is reposing on the serpent seesa in what is known as the sleep of yoga.

On this eekaadasii day the vaisnavas observe their initiation ritual by embossing the sacred figures on their forehead, chest and arms through a heated mudraa in the Mutt. This is sacred ritual for the devotees.

On that day sudarsana hooma is arranged. Silver seals of cakra and sankha are heated in the sacred fire and they are stamped first on the chest, forehead and shoulders of the swamiji and then on the chest, forehead and shoulders of the devotees. This is a sort of initiation that every vaisnava is expected to undergo every year.

Devotees from far off places come to Udupi on that day, take holy bath in the madhvasaroovara tank, undergo the ritual of mudraadhaaranaa and go back. Eve women and children get initiated in his manner.

From that day onwards one month is observed as a month of diet known as saaka vrata. Vegetables and chilies are forbidden. Only green gram, black gram and such other items are used for cooking.

Caaturmaasya

On the full moon day of aasaadha the swamiji takes a ceremonial shave and this is the commencement of caaturamaasya or staying in a fixed place for a period of four fortnights.After the daily rituals are over, the swamiji holds a tray containing scared mud and firewood and addresses the devotees in front of the idols thus.

It is rainy season. The paths are full of insects. We restrict our movements so that they must not be hurt. As per a statement in scriptures a fortnight is considered as equal to a month. We propose to spend four fortnights here in a fixed place so that no harm is caused to living beings.To this the householders reply ‘Please do stay here and grace us by your presence.’During the next two months the scholars chant Vedas, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavata and the works of Madhvacharya.

Now a days instead of the full moon day of aasaadha the caaturmaasya starts from the fifth day of the dark fortnight of aasaadha. This coincides with the anniversary of Tikacharya.

During the eekaadasi fasting days of this period a special worship known as jaagara puujaa takes place in the nights. After the raatri puujaa the swamiji carries on his head the tray containing the tulasii. He dances chanting the gory of the Lord. The musicians and attendants dances singing devotional lyrics. The scholars chant the sacred epics for a pretty long time in the night.

Special discourses on the sacred epics are arranged in three places. They are

· The platform in the Madhva Sarovara .

· The room known as simhaasana in front of the seat known as madhva piitha and

· In the candrasaalaa near the southern dor of the shrine of Mukhya Prana. This arrangement is made so that the chanting of the sacred texts fall on the ears at the time a devotee gets into the tank and goes out after the arsana of the idol.

The chanting takes place every day in the candrasaalaa. Apart from this, special chantings take place in simhaasana and also in cauki during the times of lunch everyday throughout the year. 

Jayatiitha’s punya tithi

Saint Jayathirtha’s anniversary falls on the fifth day of the dark fortnight of aasaadha. As the greatest commentator of Madhava’s works, Jayathirtha is known as Tikacharya and hence respected by all Madhvas. Hence the system of commencing caaturmaasya on that day came into vogue.
