He enters the family life and remains stuck to it. The growing tree in the forest stands huge in appearence. It gives shelter to the trespassers. The shoots come up and spread in all directions into mighty branches. It enchants the trespassers eye's.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the same way, the man's life also spreads in the form of family hierarchy. A man develops affection with woman and makes a relationship to enter the family life. He continues the generation in the form of progeny, who represent the branches of a tree (family tree). In the tree, some birds make wonderful sounds to the merriment of passersby. In the family life, people gets enchanted in listening to the children words. The children speak childishly, which brings joy to the hearts of parents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The family burden keeps on adding on his shouldes. He suffes from the burden of family pressure and remains tormented and taciturn, within his heart. The age keeps on moving. He develops a sense of fear about the future. He wish to amass wealth. He keeps on thinking about minting money, so that he can save the family members from the endangered life of poverty and misery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the welfare of family members, he sacrifices his own comforts and pleasures and keeps on working tirelessly. To safeguard his life, he interacts with public in all possible ways. The people remain crooked and evil, deep within their heart. In the forest, one can see harmful animals like herons and vultures. In the forest of life, one makes friendship with sinners. The evil doers resemble the herons and vultures in real sense. They are develish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then to run the family show, he makes social relationship with these crooked people. He remains affected by the fear of losing soical respect. To maintain the social status, he sacrifices many things and keeps on moving endlessly, in search of a destiny,which remains endles in any sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the social life, the sinners resembling the herons and vultures in their deep heart, time and again cheat the people and swindle the belongings of deprived. At times people are being preyed by these sinners. It resembles just like the wolves carying away a strayed sheep, in the forest.&lt;br /&gt;Betrayed by them, they seek to join the flock of swans (soft people), but not finding their behavior to their liking, they approach monkeys (People who enjoy life in undue means). They get stuck to the life of monkeys. They remain stuck to the cravings of mind and they forget the approaching death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeking delights in trees and found of sons and wife, they are impatient with the animal desire for sexual indulgence and powerless to get rid of their bondage. In the pursuit of undue means of unwanted joy, he gets affected by diseases, which remains like a huge cave. The diseases horifies them. The diseases resemble like an elephant (representing the death). He develops the sense of fear about the sins committed by him, in the earlier stages of his life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fear hidden in the mind remains unconquerable. We need to find the ways and means  to solve this problem. But, by our own will and determination we cannot change the destiny. We need to surrender our life on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN through the blessings of SATHGURU in the proper way of KRISHNA BHAKTHI by continously chanting the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU remove the fear of life from our mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM  be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the nectar of KRISHNA BHAKTHI as given by our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA in the form of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM flow through each nerve and vein of every JEEVATHMA (eagering soul looking for salvation) in the earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let us unanimously procalim the glory of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM though the power of continous chanting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le the entire world be blissful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...

He becomes sad and depressed. For the sake of running the family, he forcibly walks in the mountain amidst of thorns and hard stones. The family pressure burdens him. His mind remains restless. He becomes taciturn. The mental agonies, torture him like any thing. The sufferings of life, keeps him restless. He grew angry at others. He shouts at the family members. The suppressed emotions burst out from his mind like a rocking volcano.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He keeps on roaming in the forest. In the forest, some pythons do prey at human beings. Pythons engulf his life. He remains unaware of worldly happenings. He loses his entire life, caught under the devilish plot of thieves. The sinners, prey at the life of ignorant people. They cheat the ignorant people and loot the money. The evil doers are like poisonous snakes. The poison injected by them, leads the life to darkness. They cheat the people through their gimmicks. When the people lose wisdom, their life seems to be blind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ignorance leads them to darkness. The blind man travels in the forest. Some people pity at him, while others play with his life. Some people misguide him. Under their guide lines, he roams in the forest. The blind falls in the barren well and ends his life. The destiny of the blind ends in darkness and sorrow. At times, he craves for tiny pleasures. He remains unaware of his true personality. At the expense of his dignity, he searches for the tiny pleasure. People do laugh at him. Even after listening to it, he keeps on craving for the pleasures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When he enjoys the pleasure, some people forcefully detach him. At times people associated with him, do laugh his misconduct. After a long analyzing of the situation, he regains wisdom. He gains the courage. He forsakes the unwanted pleasures. But, then the same old story repeats after a short span of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The natural calamities terrify him. He remains incapable of solving the problems arising out of natural calamities. The climatic barriers like freezing cold, excess heat, hurricane and flood do prey at the lives of human beings. People do develop hatred. For the sake of material gains, people compete with one another. At times, a man leads the hypocritical life. He disguises him as a noble man. He behaves against the moral, in secret. He starts hiding his wealth. For the sake of wealth, relatives do fight with one another. The hatred burns in their heart like a fuming fire. This fire burns the entire society in the form of quarrels and fights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At times, he loses money. He becomes dependable on others. He loses the basic comforts like food, shelter and dress. People start insulting him. He accepts the insults, for the sake of comforts. The art of merchandising prevails in the society. People do exchange their goods. The money acts as a mediator and fixes the price value to each and every commodity. The mind clinches to undue means. The evils in the form of devilish plot, enters the mind and corrupt them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People do form colonies. The colonies fight with one another. In the fight, some people die. After a deep mourning, the new generation continues the fight. The time waits for none. It keeps on rolling from the past to the present leading to the future at any point of time. The changing trends keep the society moving afresh, from the past to the present. People forget the life of detached ones. At the loss of old people, he cries for a short while. Simultaneously, at the onset of a new baby, he smiles happily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a mysterious world?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He cries for a moment. After a while, he forgets the sorrow and smiles with joy. The pleasure and sorrow alternate time after time. The society keeps on rolling without a pause.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh! Mighty Ruler! The path of human life goes on endlessly. No one has ever understood the destiny of this human life. No one has ever understood the mystery behind the human life. This human life remains a puzzle for ever. The answer is yet to be finalized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mighty rulers amass the armaments. They develop occult powers. They develop YOGIC power. At one point of time, they may even rule the climatic barriers. But then, the MAYA in the form of I and mine remains unconquerable. The mighty rulers attack the neighboring countries and conquer them. The ruler starts expanding their frontiers. In the war, millions and millions of people die. Even after seeing this, no ruler has ever forsaken the war. Rulers crazily hunt on others in the form of wars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SANYASI (A follower of austerity) remains unaware of hatred. The SANYASI develops the sense of brotherhood. He develops the universal vision of mankind and works for the welfare of mankind. No ruler has ever forsaken the ruling power for the sake of peace and harmony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAVATA VIVARNANAM will be continued in the next issue…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JADABHARATHAR narrates the life as a forest. The SANYASI (SATHGURU) has the universal vision of mankind. He works for the welfare of mankind. The rulers develop hatred and fight for material gains, in the form of huge landscape (nation), in this mighty world. The SANYASI abandons the pleasure arising out of this victory (over the other nation) and remains self – reliant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SANYASI enjoys the immortal happiness of divine bliss. All the worlds sprout from BHAGAVAN. The SANYASI conquers the BHAGAVAN through PREMAI (Unconditional divine love). The SANYASI enjoys this victory over BHAGAVAN’s heart and remains self – reliant. The victory of a SANYASI is far superior to the victory of any mighty ruler.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let the chanting of “RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM” ward off the evil from our mind. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of “RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM” spread to entire world.&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let every one in the world, taste the nectar of “RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM” and be blissful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA… RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                            (TO BE CONTINUED)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115743301861653078?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115743301861653078/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115743301861653078' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115743301861653078'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115743301861653078'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/09/bhavata-vivarnanam.html' title='BHAVATA VIVARNANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-115546268919340012</id><published>2006-08-13T18:13:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-08-13T20:13:14.853+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHAVATA VARNANAM</title><content type='html'>Vide: 5 - 13 (5th Skandham, 13th Adhyayam)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The discussion between a RISHI and a SHISHYA was explained in BHAGAVATHAM Vide 5 -13. The RISHI was JADABHARATHAR. He took 3 births. In his third birth, he behaved like a mad. In his earlier birth, HE had developed a strog affection towards a deer. This desire had binded him in iron chains. The desire forced him to take rebirth. He was cycled in the SAMSARA SAGARAM (Ocean of life) for 3 births. The simple reason behind this was the uncontrollable desire towards a deer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mental cravig forms a sediment and becomes a permanent layer in the mind. This layer forms the concrete basement for building the new birth. When the soul leaves the body, the mental cravings forms a base for reaching a new body. In the same way, when the mind develops a strong desire towards devotion, then it will lead to salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A ruler by name RAGHUGANAN prostrated at the lotus feet of JADABHARATHAR. He humbly prayed at the lotus feet of JADABHARATHAR and asked about the path of human life. JADABHARATHAR started explaining the path of life. He narrated the story, depicting the life to be a forest surronded by bewilderig animals. This explanation about the forest of life was called as BHAVATA VIVARNANAM. The explanations is as follows...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The path of life moves towards materialism, caught in the illusion of prosperities and luxuries of material life. People are enveloped in the trap formed by 3 qualities namely RAJAS (Anger), TAMAS (Dullness) and SATVIC (Calmness) and they remain clinched to them. The human actions cycle around the qualities of calmness, anger and dullness. They keep in mind about the material gains.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Material gains forms the ultimate aim of life. People start developing an uncontrollable desire towards minting money. In search of it, the life moves on busily. People remain restless ad roam from pillar to corner in search of money. In the wild forest of life, people search for water (happiness) to quench their thirst, but in vain. The source of happiness remains hidden, in the forest of life. Mostly people remain unaware of this happiness. They lost their life, in the endless journey of searching the happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the forest of life, people should be careful to safeguard themselves from the 6 thieves, headed by a boss. These 6 thieves ransack the moey of people. In the forest, many foxes prey at the deer. These foxes tear them in to pieces. The sight seems to be horrible. The 6 thieves loot the money from people just like the foxes preying at the deer and tearing their body into pieces. The forest was surrounded by bushes and green trees, all around. The place seems to be surrounded by thick growth of plants. Deadly insects like mosquitoes, bees do prey at the people. They spread diseases. At times in the forest, he sees illusionary pictures. He started imaginig at them. At times, burning fires fall from heaven. The fires terrifies his mind. At times, the forest catches fire. Buring wodden sticks fell down from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh! Ruler! He starts accumulating wealth in the form of building, luxurious things, huge ladscape, money, gems and other costlier items. He amass the wealth and develops a sense of ego towards his possessions. In search of wealth, he roams in the forest from one end to another. At times, hurricane hits at him. He was forcibly driven out from his dwelling place. The fuming mud and sand particles settles down in his body. He becomes dirty. His eyes becomes dry. He suffers from the climatic disturbances. At times, he listens to unbearable horrible sounds. He becomes terrified by those sounds. At times, he listens to the sound of owls. He roams in the forest amidst of fear and insecurity. He fears at his life. He fears about the wild animals, which might prey at him. His mind becomes perplexed and tensed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He suffers of poverty. He roams in the forest with empty stomach. He sats underneath at a barren tree, without leaves. What a Iroy? He was exposed to scorching sun. The sunrays burns him, just like an ant kept in a buring furnace. To come out of it, he search for a shelter. After vigorous search, he finds a tree. But as soon as he reaches the tree, the tree starts sheding out its leaves. Sooner, the tree becomes barren. He loses the cool shelter and the sweet fragrance comig from the tree. He loses the mild breeze comig from the tree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He leaves the tree and search for another one. The same old story repeats over there. He continues the endless journey of hunting one tree after another. The burning sun rays, dehydrates him. His tingue becomes dry. He search for cool water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the forest, he search for a lake to quench his thirst. After a long journey, at a farsight, he finds a lake. He rans towards it, with all his might, but in vain. When he reaches the place, he finds no lake. The sight appeared before him as a lake was an illusion. This illusion of water continues all around the places of forest. He tastes dejection and frustration, at the loss of a lake.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, he never leaves the journey. He keeps on rolling. He goes to ponds and lakes devoid of water. At times, he was starved to death. He fights with the fellowmen for the sake of food. At times, he spreads scandal about others. At times, he loses his life, being burnt in the forest fire, which engulfs the entire forest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At times, demons prey at him. He loses his life, in the hands of demons. Sometimes, thieves loot the money and make him a pauper. He becomes sad and depressed. He faints down to earth, on listening to this sad news. At times, he enters the fatacy world of fun and recreation. He felts enchanted. He enjoys the celebration over there. But, he cannot celebrate it for a long time. He was forced to travel in the huge mountain. He has to climb up in the mountain. During his voyage, piercing thorns and hard stones painfully hits at his feet. He climbs in the mountain as a bitter experience, but of no avail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The family burden surmounts him like a huge mountain. He becomes like an ant kept inside a huge mountain, searching for exit, but in vain. The family pressures binds him. He grew angry at others and shouts at the people around him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The explanation to be continued in the next article....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till such time, let the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM protect us from evils.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The UPADESHAM (Kind precahing) coming from the SATHGURU remains immortal. They know the ultimate reality of life. The path of life as explaied by JADABHARATHAR, will remain immortal for ages to come. The UPADESHAM coming from the SATHGURU enlightens the mind. This path of enlightenment lead us to salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let us listen to the UPADESHAM coming from our SATHGURU. Let the divine grace of BHAGAVAN fill our mind with the divine preachings of our SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of SATHSAGAM spread to the entire world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(To Continue...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115546268919340012?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115546268919340012/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115546268919340012' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115546268919340012'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115546268919340012'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/08/bhavata-varnanam.html' title='BHAVATA VARNANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-115418236538128900</id><published>2006-07-29T23:11:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-07-29T23:12:45.393+09:00</updated><title type='text'>NIMHI VAMSA VARNANAM</title><content type='html'>NIMHI VAMSA VARNANAM&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;                                       (Vide 9:13, 9th Skandham, 13th Adhyayam)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The curse got from a SATHGURU remains irreversible, except at the divine grace bestowed by them. Only through the divine grace of SATHGURU, the effects of a curse can be annulled. Even BHAGAVAN does not deny the curse given by a MAHATHMA (SATHGURU). The words coming from a MAHATHMA (Sathguru) can very well be taken as the words of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The curse given by VASISTA RISHI, came to reality. NIMHI RAJAN fell down on earth. NIMHI RAJAN died. The BRAHMINS, who were performing the YAGNAM, preserved the body of NIMHI RAJAN with the help of medicated oils. Time passed on. With the divine grace of BHAGAVAN, the SATHRA YAGAM was completed harmoniously.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The DEVA’S were pleased by the earnest prayer made by the BRAHMINS. The DEVA’S appeared on the scene. The BRAHMINS prostrated on to the lotus feet of DEVA’S. The DEVA’S asked the BRAHMINS to seek a boon from them. The BRAHMINS requested the DEVA’S, “We were pleased by the kind ruling of NIMHI RAJAN. A country without a ruler behaves like a destitute. We need our ruler, namely NIMHI RAJAN. If it is within your powers, please bring HIM back to life. Let him be given a human life.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To this the DEVA’S said, “Let NIMHI RAJAN regain life”. On listening to these words, the soul of NIMHI RAJAN replied,&lt;br /&gt;“Please don’t bind me in the eternal ocean of SAMSARAM  (cycle of birth and death). Let me not take a human birth, kept inside a human body. The body remains mortal. The soul remains immortal. Let me attain salvation from the cycle of birth and death. The RISHI’s, who had conquered the MAYA (Illusion of materialism) detached themselves from the cravings of the mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind wanders in all directions, in search of pleasure. The sensual cravings bind the life in iron chains, unknowingly. The life of a human being passes on in the dire delusion of materialism. The RISHI’s meditated on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN and escaped from the MAYA. Their mind was fully absorbed in BHAGAVAN. The chanting of NAMAM vibrated their body with devotion. They abandoned the luxuries of material world, just like passing things appearing in a dream world. Through constant meditation of NAMA JAPAM, they attained salvation from the cycle of birth and death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The path of devotion leads to salvation. I wish to attain salvation from the material life of illusion. The human life arising out of human body leads to many sorrows and sufferings and fills the mind with horror. The uncertainty of life occupies the mind and people suffer a lot. I don’t wish to take such a human birth. This kind of life is typical to the life of a fish. The fish was forced to make a living in the horrifying ocean, amidst of predators in the form of big fishes. To escape from the ocean, if it enters the land, then the life of fish comes to an end in the hands of fishermen. The race of “fittest the survival” holds well in the material world. The human beings lead their life in stiff competition. The death enters the lifespan of a human being at an appropriate time. The appropriate time of death was symbolically represented in the form of YAMA DHARMA RAJAN, one who rules the hell. No one can escape from the death. The human life seems to be short, yet precious. I don’t wish to lead the life in the MAYA of materialism. I wish to be an observer of the world. Please don’t bind me in the cave of a human body.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On listening to the enlightened speech of NIMHI RAJAN, the DEVA’S said,&lt;br /&gt;“Let HIM not be put in the cycle of MAYA. Let NIMHI RAJAN live in the eyelids of each and every human being and make a living through the movements of eyelids. Let him observe the happenings of the material world. Let HIM eternally live in the MAYA, without being affected by it. Let him lead the life of detachment in this mighty world of materialism.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On attaining a unique boon from the DEVA’S, the NIMHI RAJAN grew happy. NIMHI RAJAN started living in the eyelids of human beings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BRAHMINS thought for a while. The country without a ruler behaves like a destitute. So they took the dead body of NIMHI RAJAN and through a medical process, they gave birth to a baby artificially. (It is similar to artificial insemination and gene cloning. Nowadays we are listening about test tube babies. The same thing was done through the body of NIMHI RAJAN. Vide – 9th Skandham, 13th Adhyayam, Slokhas 12, 13.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The baby was named as JANAGAN (One who gave birth to children having got his own life from a dead body). JANAGAN continued the proud hereditary of NIMHI RAJAN through the off springs.  He was also called as VAIDHEGAN or VIDHEGAN. He was artificially made from the dead cells of a human body. So he was called as VAIDHEGAN (Artificially made human being).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The process of test tube babies involves the mixing of cells to form an embryo. In short, it can be termed as MIXING. In olden days people used to extract the butter from the milk, through continuous squashing with the help of wooden stick. Here the butter was extracted from the milk through the process of EXTRACTION. In the same way, from the cells of a dead body, the human life was extracted. The SANSKRIT word MATHANAM literally means extraction. JANAGAN was also called as MITHILAN (One who got his life through the process of MATHANAM. A baby born of MATHANAM was called as MITHILAN). The ruling kingdom of MITHILAN was called as MITHILAI. In the proud hereditary of MITHILAN comes SEETHA MATHA, the divine companion of BHAGAVAN SRI RAMA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The glory of SATHGURU remains great. See the life of NIMHI RAJAN. He lives eternally in the MAYA (ILLUSION OF MATERIALISM) but remains an observer in a detached way. He observes the fantasies of human beings through their eyelids. We open and close our eyes time and again. But have we ever thought of NIMHI RAJAN and the divine glory of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do we ever check the cravings of the mind, on opening the eyes? Do we ever observe the material world as a illusion, just like NIMHI RAJAN? Perhaps, the answer lies within us. The eyes are given to enjoy the divine beauty of BHAGAVAN.  Let the blessings of SATHGURU, lead us to observe the world without getting into the trap of MAYA. Even the curse turns the life of a SHISHYA to a great altar in the material life. Then what to say about the boon got from a SATHGURU, in the form of blessings? It cannot be explained in human words. The divine glory of SATHGURU remains unreachable to human words and expressions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let us lead in the path of devotion. Let our life be blissful. Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM spread to each and every one in the world. Let the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM purify the entire world. Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHE KRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA….RADHEKRISHNA….RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                (Concluded)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115418236538128900?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115418236538128900/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115418236538128900' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115418236538128900'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115418236538128900'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/07/nimhi-vamsa-varnanam.html' title='NIMHI VAMSA VARNANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-115259406050355449</id><published>2006-07-11T13:49:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-07-29T00:04:05.050+09:00</updated><title type='text'>NIBHI VAMSA VARNANAM</title><content type='html'>Vide 9 - 13,&lt;br /&gt;9 th Skandham, 13 th Adhyayam&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the proud heriditary of IKSHVAGU, there comes another ruler by name NIBHI. IKSHVAGU had a son by name NIBHI. He was a proud ruler known to all. NIBHI performed a very big YAGNA (divine sacrifice). The YAGNA performed by him was a divine one, running for longer years of time. The YAGNA was called as SATHRA YAGAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NIBHI prayed at the lotus feet of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU) to perform the rituals of YAGNA. To this VASISITA Rishi replied, "Oh! Mighty ruler! I am happy in accepting your invitation. But, then DEVENDRAN (ruler of heaven) was running a SATHRA YAGAM. He asked me to attend it. To his request, I have already gave my word and promised him that, I would be attending the YAGNA without fail. I have to keep up my word. Let me complete the YAGNAM of Devendran. After finishing it, I will return to your place. Till such tiem, wait for me. " NIBHI remained silent, after listening these words from VASISTA RISHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VASISTA RISHI went to the SATHRA YAGAM of DEVENDRAN. He did the YAGAM perfectly with utmost devotion. After finishing it, VASISTA RISHI came to the place ofNIBHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One strange thing was happening...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NIBHI was a true devotee. He had the true wisdom of divinity. He understood the reality of life. This life remains unstable. The soul residing in the body, can leave the body at any point of time. This life is short. This life is running short. No one can understand the destiny of one's life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SATHRA YAGAM need to be continued for many years. I am waiting for VASISTA RISHI. But, then the right time had not yet come. I am running short of my life. Let me start the YAGNAM. Knowing the uncertainity of life, NIBHI RAJAN took the risk of starting the YAGNAM without the presence of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VASISTA RISHI came to the place of NIBHI RAJAN. He was shocked to see the YAGNAM being performed by some other BRAHMINS. NIBHI RAJAN committed the greatest mistake of disobeying the command of SATHGURU. VASISTA RISHI kept his promise alive. After finishing the YAGNAM of DEVENDRAN, HE came to the place of NIBHI. The SATHGURU always think about the welfare of SHISHYA (Devotee). They never forget their words and promises. They will keep up their promise. On the other hand, the SHISHYA should seek the qualities of patience and perseverance in their life. The golden periods of fortune and prosperity will struck in the life of each and every SHISHYA, without fail. To this end, SHISHYA has to go by the means of devotion and should have the determined faith in the words of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NIBHI RAJAN gave utmost importance to the rituals at the expense of SATHGURU. This remains a greatest sin. The SATHGURU brings the BHAGAVAN hidden in our body as a soul. Before the glory of SATHGURU, no ritual of any high value remains comparable. Their divine mercy of bestowing the divine grace of BHAGAVAN remains a huge mountain in comparison to the rituals as a sack of sand particles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VASISTA RISHI grew angry at the misconduct of NIBHI as a SHISHYA. VASISTA RISHI cursed NIBHI RAJAN, " Let the body of NIBHI RAJAN engulfed in the "EGO" of 'WISDOM' be fell on the ground. Let him die. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NIBHI RAJAN grew angry. He lost his senses. Against the norms of divinity, NIBHI RAJAN gave a curse to VASISTA RISHI. As a divine rule, a SHISHYA (Devotee) should never think ill of a SATHGURU. NIBHI RAJAN cursed VASISTA RISHI, " Oh! Reverred BRAHMIN! You are greedy. You went to the place of DEVENDRAN for the material sake. Let your body made of greediness be fell on the ground."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In BHAGAVATHAM, no more explanation was given about the after effects of the curse of NIBHI RAJAN. A great moral lies behind this. The curse gave by a SATHGURU remains a blessings in disguize. The curse gave by a SATHGURU will bring glory and prosperity to the successive generation of SHISHYA. But, on the contrary if a SHISHYA think ill of a SATHGURU, then it will ruin the life of SHISHYA. It is advisable that never we should resort to such destiny in our life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a divine norm to think about the welfare of mankind. Let our mind think good things. Let us speak good words. Let our conduct be good. Let our mind be fixed on the good things of life. Let our mind be purified by the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM. Let us never clinch to the wrong notions of life. Let our senses namely speaking and hearing be focussed towards devotion. It is a sin to speak about the ruining of a SHISHYA's life. To avoid it, in BHAGAVATHAM, no more explanation was given to the outcome of the curse of NIBHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till next issue to know about the glory of VASISTA RISHI (SATHGURU)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By listening and speaking about the evil things, we are unnecessarily adding fuel to the fire of evil. Let us never do it, as a SHISHYA. On the contrary, the words of SATHGURU may be about the evils of society. Because their words will cleanse the evils of society. They are born for the welfare of mankind. They are born to cleanse the sins and the evils of mankind. As a divne role, they preach about the ways and means to ward off the evils of mankind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The behaviour of a SATHGURU remains a mystery. We have to chant RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM continously to keep our self humble enough to accept the words of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, in this life. Let us use this life fruitfully. Let the glory of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM and SATHGURU be spread always. Let the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM as given by POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, reverberate the entire world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RAHDEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                         TO CONTINUE...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115259406050355449?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115259406050355449/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115259406050355449' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115259406050355449'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115259406050355449'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/07/nibhi-vamsa-varnanam.html' title='NIBHI VAMSA VARNANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-115130016402594333</id><published>2006-06-26T13:41:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-06-26T14:36:04.103+09:00</updated><title type='text'>SOWDHASA UPAKYANAM</title><content type='html'>The wife of BRAHMIN  gave a curse. She was shocked to see the massacre of her husband by a demon. She shouted at SOWDHASAN, " You are a man of deviant behaviour. Your mind was corrupted. We were about to enjoy our married life. But, then before me having a pleasure with my husband, you committed the deadly sin of killing him. Now, I am craving for him. I am left with no other option. I can never give birth to a offspring through him. I was forcibly seperated from him, by you. You are the root cause of all my sufferings. I curse you that, your life will end when you indulge in carnal pleasure with a lady."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After cursing SOWDHASAN, she made a very firm decision.  She wished to leave this material world. SHe accumulated the bones of her husband. She burnt the left over remains of her husband's body in the fire. She entered the divine fire and ended her life. She attained the divine celestial worlds like DEVALOKHAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SOWDHASAN roamed in forest as a beast for 12 years. The period of curse received from VASISTA RISHI was over. He regained his originality. He returned to his kingdom. He was enjoying the royal luxuries happily to his hearts full. Once, he wished to enjoy the carnal pleasure wih his wife namely MADHYANTHYA DEVI. She wisely stopped him. She reminded him about the curse given by the wife of BRAHMIN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he forsaked the carnal pleasure completely. So, he was left with no offspring. The ruling hierarchy became a destitiude, with the lack of successor to rule it. Relaizing the situation, VASISTA RISHI, wished to change the destiny of SOWDHASAN. Through the divine grace of SATHGURU, the couple were fortuned to have a offspring to continue their ruling sceptre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The curse givne by VASISTA RISHI remained irreversible. It had the ill - effects of receiving one more curse from the wife of BRAHMIN. But, all these ill - effects were once again washed away by the divine grace of SATHGURU. The divine grace of SATHGURU is abundant. They have the power to change the destiny of one's life. The curse or boon received from them has a great significanc ein one's life. Even the curse received from a SATHGURU bestows great lessons as a blesssings in disguize. But, one should never think ill of a SATHGURU and receive a curse from HIM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MADHYANTHYA became pregnant. She was carrying the foetus in the womb. A divine mystery lies in this. She was carrying the foetus for 7 years accumulating to 84 months. But then, she never gave birth the child to the external world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, see the divine power of SATHGURU. The child born through the divine grace of SATHGURU remains an exception to the material context. The divien grace of SATHGURU is exceptional. The divine happenings crossing in the life of SHISHYA's (devotees) by the power of SATHGURU, remains a miracle to the material world.The same thing happened to MADHYANTHYA DEVI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Through suitable means and by using a hard stone as an instrument, VASISTA RISHI paved way for the birth of the child. The child was born with the help of a hard stone. So, he was called as ASHMAKAN (ASHMAKA - hard stone). ASHMAKAN ruled the entire world under his sceptre. He enjoyed the material prosperities. After the end of his life, he attained the higher celestial wrolds of DEVA LOKHAM. His life ended happily through the divine grace of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The son of ASHMAKAN was called as MOOLAKAN. He was also called as NAREE KAVACHAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A story runs behind this...&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;In the divine incarnation of BHAGAVAN, there comes a significant role, in the name of PARASURAMAR. He was born to RISHI JAMADHAGNI and RENUKA DEVI. A ruler committed the deadly sin of killing JAMADHAGNI RISHI. For the revenge of it, PARASURAMAR made a pledge to kill the 21 successive generations of any ruling kingdom, spreading along the entire earth. PARASURAMAR took revenge on rulers and HE had shown to the world that the power of a BRAHMIN SADHU is enormous and is far superior to any tyrant ruler, prevailing in the entire earth, at any point of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is during this time, MOOLAKAN  was born. So, he was protected by ladies under the disguize of a female child. So, he was called as NAREE KAVACHAN (One who is protected by ladies). NAREE - Ladies KAVACHA - Protection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PARASURAMAR killed the 21 successive generations of rulers, in the entire world. There remained no ruler, except for MOOLAKAN, in the entire world, representing the root of a big tree of KSHATHRIYA's (Rulers). Thus from MOOLAKAN, the tree of KSHATHRIYA's (rulers) started sprouting once again. In the proud heriditary of MOOLAKAN, came the ruler by name KATVANGAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have already seen the KATVANGA MUKTHI (Salvation to Katvangan) in one of our earlier articles. KATVANGAN praises the glory of BRAHMINS (sadhu's).  He says, " I love BRAHMINS. They are so dearer to me. I will forsake my sons, welath, ruling kingdom as well as my wife but not the divine company of BRAHMINS ( SATHGURU's company namely SATHSANGAM).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let my mind be always in the path of righteousness. The BRAHMINS have the universal vision of seeing the BHAGAVAN in each and every one. Through their company, I was fortuned to have the divine mercy of BHAGAVAN. I am fortuned to know my life span. I am left with 24 minutes time in my life span. Now, I fully devote my life towards devotion. Let me attain salvation. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus KATVANGAN attained the salvation within 24 minutes. We are fortuned to have this life. But, are we spending every 24 minutes of time usefully in devotion leading to true happiness?&lt;br /&gt;One can answer this question with acknowledgement, within his / her mind. We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM. Let our life be a blissful one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA....RADHEKRISHNA....RADHEKRISHNA....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                       (CONCLUDED)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115130016402594333?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115130016402594333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115130016402594333' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115130016402594333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115130016402594333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/06/sowdhasa-upakyanam_115130016402594333.html' title='SOWDHASA UPAKYANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-115125195683545251</id><published>2006-06-26T00:23:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-06-26T01:12:36.906+09:00</updated><title type='text'>SOWDHASA UPAKYANAM</title><content type='html'>BHAGEERATHAN remains an ideal for the quality of perseverance and determination. He was praying at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. The river Ganga was in heaven. He took the hercullian task of of bringing it down to earth. No one can ever imagine of bringing a heavenly river to earth. He took the challenge and through perseverance and determination, he achieved it. He had the full confidence of purifying the river Ganga by the power of SATHSANGAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The task before us, may seem to be unsurmountable. But, through constant chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMA JAPAM and having a unswerved confidence in the power of SATHGURU, we can taste the nectar of success in our life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many centuries rolled on....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the proud heriditary of BHAGEERATHAN, there came another ruler called SOWDHASAN. He was also called as MITHRASAHAN. Some people used to call him as KALMASHANGRI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once SOWDHASAN went to forest, for hunting. There he was encountered by a demon. He killed the demon, but spared the demon's brother. For the revenge of it, the demon's brother disguized himself as a cook and started working in the kitchen of the royal chamber. He was waiting for a suitable time to take the revenge on SOWDHASAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A time came in favour of him. Once, VASISTA RISHI came to the palace of SOWDHASAN. He was the royal advisory (SATHGURU) to the proud ruling hierarchy of SOWDHASAN and his forefathers dating back to BHAGEERATHAN and his proud ancestors. The demon under the disguize of cook, took note at the arrival of VASISTA RISHI. He served the meat of human being, in a suitably modified form. On seeing the dish, VASISTA RISHI grew angry at the misconduct of SOWDHASAN. He cursed SOWDHASAN to become a demon, who ate at human beings. But, soon after the cursing, VASISTA RISHI realized that it was the tactics played by the demon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, VASISTA RISHI restricted the time period of curse to 12 years. On receiving the curse from VASISTA RISHI, out of anger SOWDHASAN wished to curse the SATHGURU. But, was luckily stopped by his wife namely MADHYANTHYA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When he was about to curse by sprinkling the water, he saw the divine DARSHAN of entire world filled with human beings (Universal vision of mankind). So, left with no other option, he sprinkled the water on to his feet. So, the legs turned black.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The curse or boon given by a SATHGURU remains irreversible, except at the will of SATHGURU. It is really atrocious and ruining to think ill of SATHGURU. The hatred or angry shown at the conduct of SATHGURU, will not bring fortune in life. Knowing this divine knowledge, out of divine wisdom, MADHYANTHYA stopped SOWDHASAN. He obeyed the advice of her, just like a friend's advice (FRIEND - MITHRA). Since, he obeyed the advice of MITHRA, he was called as MITHRA SAHAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By sprinkling the water on to his legs, his legs turned black. So he was called as KALMASHANGRI (Some thing that describes black colour feet). SOWDHASAN became a demon, and started roaming in the forest. He saw a BRAHMIN COUPLE, in the forest, when they were about to enjoy their happy wedding life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The demon turned SOWDHASAN was very hungry. He took the BRAHMIN in his hands. Seeing this, the wife of the BRAHMIN requested SOWDHASAN,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" We are very humble. We are the citizens of your country. By birth, you are not a demon. You belong to the proud hierarchy of IKSHVAGU. You are the husband of MADHYANTHYA DEVI, a lady of divine wisdom. We haven't yet enjoyed our family life. We need a offspring, to continue our heriditary. So, please spare my husband.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This body is the divine abode of BHAGAVAN. When this body becomes dead, the soul goes out of the body. This body behaves as an instrument in gaining the material and spiritual prosperity, leading to salvation. So, killing a human being will ruin all these great beneficiaries. So, killing a person is a deadly sin. So, please don't do it. She begged at the demon, like any thing to spare her husband.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My husband is a BRAHMIN. He has the universl vision of seeing BHAGAVAN in each and every one. He remains pure and virgin in his characters. He meditates thouroughly on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. You belong to the proud heriditary of IKSHVAGU. You are born in the heriditary of noble rulers. Please don't go away from the path of righteousness. Please spare my husband.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a sin to kill a cow. In the same way, it is a deadly sin to kill a BRAHMIN of poise character. So, please don't do it. Even after all these explanations, if you feel like eating him, please eat me first. I am dead, at the loss of him. Please eat me first. I want to leave this world, before my husband. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When she was begging at him like this, SOWDHASAN took the BRAHMIN by his hand and ate him just like a tiger preying at a cow. On seeing this, the wife of BRAHMIN  gave a curse to SOWDHASAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you want to know the curse and the after effects of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till the next issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till then, let us chant RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM continously and receive the bliss of BHAGAVAN.

He asked for the land covering the 3 feet distance of his tiny feet, as covered by him. MAHABHALI gave the land to VAMANA BHAGAVAN. On receiving the DHANAM (gift), the joy of BHAGAVAN grew no bound.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN's body started growing. BHAGAVAN grew all along the entire earth and heaven. There VAMANA BHAGAVAN was called as THRIVIKRAMAN. By his first feet, BHAGAVAN measured the entire heaven. By the second feet, BHAGAVAN measured the entire earth. For the third feet, BHAGAVAN ruled the head of MAHABALI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN blessed MAHABALI by keeping his divine feet on to the head of MAHABALI. BHAGAVAN sent him to the BADHALA LOKHAM (Under surface of earth). There BHAGAVAN safeguards the kingdom of MAHABALI, by performing the duty of gate keeper. See, the divine mercy of BHAGAVAN. BHAGAVAN guards the kingdom of a ruler, as a gate- keeper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See, How humble BHAGVAN is? BHAGAVAN binds himself to pure unconditional divine love. The divine gift (DHANAM) offered by MAHABALI made BHAGAVAN happy. In return of it, BHAGAVAN started protecting the welfare of MAHABALI, by doing the duty of gate - keeper. Such is the magnanimity and simplicity of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VAMANA BHAGAVAN ruled the entire heaven by his first feet. When the leg was extended to heaven, it was touching the VAIKUNDAM (the divine abode of BHAGAVAN, kept high above all, in heaven). At that time, BRAHMA BHAGAVAN(the god of creation) was fortuned to have the DARSHAN (SIGHT) of the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. He, at once purified the feet by holy water. The water that purified the divine feet of BHAGAVAN, by the BRAHMA BHAGAVAN became the river GANGA and was in the heaven. River Ganga has the greatest glory of attaining the purity through the power of the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN, enacted in the presence of BRAHMA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comin to the story...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RUDHRA BHAGAVAN gave his blessings to BHAGEERATHAN. River Ganga started flowing from heaven in an atrocious speed. RUDHRA BHAGAVAN received the river Ganga on to his head. He slowly, let it down to earth. Now, the speed of Ganga was bearable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BAGEERATHAN went on, in his divine chariot. It was a divine chariot capable of moving in an unimaginable speed. River Ganga closely followed him. The holy river Ganga went all through the earth. BHAGEERATHAN went to the place of KAPILA BHAGAVAN, where his ancestors were burnt to ashes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;River Ganga touched the ashes. On attaining the SATHSANGAM (the company of holy people) with river Ganga, the sons of SAGARAN, who were burnt to ashes attained salvation. Now, one can understand the glory of SATHSANGAM. The sons of SAGARAN, committed the deadly sin of ill - treating a SADHU (SATHGURU), namely KAPILA BHAGAVAN. The bane received from him, remained irreversible. Even the holiness of river Ganga remained incapable of ridiculing the sin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGEERATHAN trusted at the divine glory of SADHU (SathGuru). He expalined the glory of SADHU's to river Ganga. The power of Sadhu can burn the sins to ashes. They have the power to burn the entire sins of mankind. It is this assurance from a devotee, that pleased the river Ganga. The purity of SADHU's can purify the sins burdened on to the river Ganga. Such is the divine glory of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On attaining the SATHSANGAM with river Ganga, the restless soul attained peace. The SATHSANGAM can give peace to restless soul. The restless soul attained salvation.&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVATHAM explains the glory of river Ganga, as follows...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"People who meditate and pray on to the lotus feet of river Ganga, will attain salvation. River Ganga attained the purity from the divine feet of BHAGAVAN. The holiness of river Ganga, adds to her glory, the divine power of SATHGURU. Such is the divine grace of GANGA. It can eradicate the viscious cycle of SAMSARA BANDHAM (the cycle of birth and death carved by the unfulfilled wishes, imprinted during the life span).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SADHU's remain selfless. They meditate fully on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. The chanting of NAMAM reverberates in their each and every nerve. They meditate fully with single mindedness on to the BHAGAVAN, and forsake the sufferings of life, just like the events that took place in dream. They take this life as a dream drama, enacted in the world stage, directed by the divine wish of BHAGAVAN, controlled and oscillated by the threads of emotions, just like the dolls in the puppet - show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knowing this ultimate reality, they detach themself from the fruits of actions. They surrender the fruits of actions on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. They remain burdenless. Many SADHU's (SATHGURU) take bath in the holy river Ganga. The company of SATHSANGAM (SATHGURU) makes the river Ganga, a holier one. Such is the glory of SADHU's and the holiness of river Ganga, got through SATHSANGAM."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More to come on the moral aspects of this story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till the next issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till then, let us chant RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM continously and receive the bliss of BHAGAVAN.

The forefathers of AMSUMAN were burnt to ashes. Their soul can be purified through the holy Ganga river, in heaven. The river Ganga is a embodiment of virtue. It has the divine power of BHAGAVAN. It can purify the sins and give salvation to the restless soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;River Ganga was in heaven. AMSUMAN handed over the throne to his son DHILEEPAN. He went to forest. He prayed for many years, in vigourous meditation, begging the divine grace of BHAGAVAN to bring down the Ganga from heaven to earth. His prayer was not answered till his end of life. He ended his life, with an unfulfilled desire of bringing down the Ganga river.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The successor of AMSUMAN namely DHILEEPAN forsaked the ruling throne. After the demise of his father, he went to forest and continued the prayer. He was praying to BHAGAVAN fervently. Many years rolled on and he was ageing towars his death. His life also ended with a unfulfilled desire of purifying the sins of his ancestors through the river Ganga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then came BHAGEERATHAN. He went to forest. He sat in meditation. He was doing vigorous meditation. He prayed wholeheartedly on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. His mind was fully absorbed in the divine feet of BHAGAVAN. He became immersed with BHAGAVAN. The chanting of NAMAM (Nama Japam) went on continously and the body was fully magnetized with the power of NAMA JAPAM. Ganga Devi appeared before him. She gave the DARSHAN (Divien appearence before human eyes) to BHAGEERATHAN. She granted him, the boon of coming to the earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGEERATHAN became enchanted. He requested river Ganga to pass on from one place to another, in the earth. To this river Ganga replied, " I will be flowing in a tremendous speed, which the earth may not withstand. So, I will be piercing the earth and my flow will go to the underneath of earth and not to the surface of earth. So, tell me who will be shouldering the responsibility of controlling my tremendous power? One more thing, I don't like coming to earth. People in earth behave selfishly. They do many sins. They will burden me with their sins. Now, I am pure. By their actions, they will contaminate me. They will make me impure. Now, tell me who will be shouldering the responsibility of removing my sins?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To this BHAGEERATHAN replied,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" Oh! River Ganga! You are the diivne mother. You are the embodiment of pure and virtue. You are the purifier of sins. Your divine grace can purify the sins of entire world. People do many sins, out of selfishness. But among them, are many holy people, who devote their entire life to the service of mankind and BHAGAVAN. The SADHU (SATHGURU) remains selfless. He craves for nothing. He remains immersed in BHAGAVATH DHYANAM (meditation of BHAGAVAN) . He prays for the welfare of mankind, all through his life. He chants the divine name of BHAGAVAN continously. He shoulders the burden of sins, committed by the people all around him. He purifies the sins of entire mankind, by his power of devotion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SADHU's (SATHGURU) will be coming to you, on pilgrimge. They will take holy bath in you. By attaining SATHSANGAM (company of SATHGURU), you can be liberated from the sins of entire mankind. Oh! River Ganga! You can feel secure in the hands of SADHU's (SATHGURU). They will burn the sins to ashes and will protect your purity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your tremendous power can be shouldered down by the RUDHRA BHAGAVAN. He has the power of withstanding your tremendous speed. He can controll your speed and let you down slowly to earth, so that you can flow freely in the surface of earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On listening to these words, river Ganga became happy. BHAGEERATHAN prostrated on to the lotus feet of river Ganga. River Ganga gave her blessings and went to her divine abode. BHAGEERATHAN sat in meditation. He meditated for the divine grace of RUDHRA BHAGAVAN (Lord Shiva). Lord Shiva was described to be a easy boon - giver. He becomes happy quickly. In the same way, he gets angry quickly. BHAGEERATHAN prayed to RUDHRA BHAGAVAN, to shoulder the power of river Ganga. Lord Shiva, granted him the boon. The story of river Ganga has the significance with that of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till next issue, to know the significane of Ganga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till then, Let us Chant RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM continously and enjoy the bliss of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the glory of SATHSANGAM and SATHGURU be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                      (TO CONTINUE...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-115122809623023980?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/115122809623023980/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=115122809623023980' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115122809623023980'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/115122809623023980'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/06/sowdhasa-upakyanam.html' title='SOWDHASA UPAKYANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-114620635133101541</id><published>2006-04-28T14:56:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-04-28T15:48:28.086+09:00</updated><title type='text'>SAGARA CHARITHRAM</title><content type='html'>Vide 9 - 8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(9 th Skandham, 8 th Adhyayam)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sons of SAGARAN were burnt to ashes by the power of KAPILA BHAGAVAN. The divine horse kept for the purpose of ASHWAMEDHA YAGANM, was missing. SAGARAN's sons were also missing. SAGARAN became depressed. He was praying to BHAGAVAN whole heartedly, to come out of the problem. SAGARAN was having two wives namely SUMATHI and KESINI. The sons of SUMATHI were burnt to ashes. The son of KESINI was called as ASAMANJAS. He behaved indifferently. He was aYOGI, in the previous birth. Knowing about his previous birth, he behaved indifferently in the present life. So people called him as ASAMANJAS (Dull and indifferent). He behaved like a stupid. His attitudes seemed to be mad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He wish to detatch himself from the bindings in the form of royal kingdom and servants. He started giving troubles to people around him. His behaviour made everyone horrified. People started hating him. on the banks of SARAYU river, small kids used to play, making fun out of their time. ASAMANJAS threwed the children in to the SARAYU river. On hearing this sad news, people became shocked and terrified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SAGARAN grew angry over this and ordered his son to leave the palace, atonce. On hearing this news, ASAMANJAS never felt any thing bad about it. He accepted it, as a blessing. He left the palace immediately. He went to the banks of SARAYU river. Through his magical powers, he brought back the children and handed over them to their parents. He entered in to the path of detatchment and lead a simple life forsaking the pleasures of royal luxuries. He entred into the path of devotion leading to salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people of AYODHYA grew happy. They understood the glory of ASAMANJAS. They praised him as a great YOGI with mystical powers. They started acknowledging him, as a divine incarnation, in human form. On hearing about the glory of ASAMANJAS, SAGARAN became happy. He started regretting for the loss of his son namely, ASAMANJAS. But, ASAMANJAS never set back himself from the path of devotion. He attained salvation finally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The son of ASAMANJAS was called as AMSUMAN. Obeying the orders of SAGARAN, he went in search of the divine horse. He searched in all directions, but in vain. At last, he found the horse near the ashes in the place of a RSIHI, namely KAPILA BHAGAVAN. He realized KAPILA BHAGAVAN as a divine incarnation in human form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AMSUMAN prayed to KAPILA BHAGAVAN,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" You are the BHAGAVAN, in human form. The trinity gods in the form of BRAHMA, VISHNU and SHIVA remain unaware about the divine powers of yours. The hidden divine powersof yours remain beyound the capabilities of mind, bodily organs and human emotions. We are humble and remain in the trap of ignorace. How come we can realize the divine powers of yours?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You remain a embodiment of calmness. You are purely SATVIC ( kind and gentle). You remain indifferent to ignorance in the form of angry and laziness. People remain ignorant in realizing the BHAGAVAN as a soul in side the body. They search for BHAGAVAN all- around, but in vain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The powers of RISHI's were praised by people from time immemorial. But the divine glory of yours, is far superior to them. You represent the divine incarnation of BHAGAVAN. People are binded in the sentimental emotions of creed, jealousy, hatred, ego and other sentimental feelings. They kept themself binded in the homely affairs. They forget the divine divinity kept in them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You preached us the divine path of YOGA, namely SANKHYA YOGAM. On obeying the principles of SANKHYA YOGAM, one can easily liberate himself from the worldly bindings and attain salvation. I had the fortune of having the DARSHAN of KAPILA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your DARSHAN enlightened my senses. My bindings were broken. I, pray at your lotus feet wholeheartedly. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KAPILA BHAGAVAN became happy. He blessed AMSUMAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KAPILA BHAGAVAN told AMSUMAN, " Let the horse be taken by you. By sprinkling the holy water of GANGA river, you can find salvation to the sins of your forefathers. The sins made by them remain like a huge mountain. They can be purified only through the GANGA river. They cannnot attain salvation without this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AMSUMAN prostrated at the lotus feet of KAPILA BHAGAVAN. He left the hermitage. He handed over the horse to SAGARAN. With the blessings of HOWRVA RISHI , the YAGNAM was completed. Obeying the orders of SATHGURU, namely HOWRVA RISHI, SAGARAN handed over the kingdom to AMSUMAN. AMSUMAN ruled the kingdom with utmost dexterity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SAGARAN left the palace and followed the path of true devotion. He forsaked every thing. He meditated fully on to BHAGAVAN. His prayer was answered. He finally attained salvation from the worldly bindings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The blessings of SATHGURU lead the life of SAGARAN  to salvation. He attained name and fame in the material standards. He attained salvation in the spiritual pursuit.

He was thinking in a crooked way. The pleasures of DEVALOKHAM, kept him still more tempted. He made a devilish plot, to stop the 100th ASHWAMEDHA YAGNAM. In the YAGNAM, a horse will be symbolized as a prestigious representation of the royal kingdom of the ruler. The horse will be decorated with gold ornaments. After the end of YAGNAM, the horse will be purified by chating Vedic hymns. Then the horse will be sent to various places. A huge army will follow the horse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A ruler who wish to challenge the supremacy of the performer of YAGNAM, can snatch this horse forcefully. The huge army following the horse will come to the  rescue of horse. The kings who wish to accept the supremacy of the performer of YAGNAM, will honour the horse with valuable ornaments. The performer of YAGNAM, should take utmost care in preserving the horse from enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a ruler of DEVALOKHAM, INDRAN knew this very well. As per Vedic sayings, for any reason if the 100th ASHWAMEDHA YAGNAM gets stopped means, then the powers will be lost. As per Vedic saying, he cannot enter heaven. SAGARAN was performing the 100th one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;INDRAN snatched the horse through his magical powers. He was coward. He had not challenged SAGARAN for a battle. Instead, he took the path of cheating the enemy. He snatched the horse and kept it in a secret place. The horse was missing. Knowing this, SAGARAN ordered his sons to search the divine horse kept for the YAGNAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obeying the orders of father, they searched for the horse in all directions. They wandered to different places and searched for the horse, but in vain. At last, they saw a hermitage of a RISHI. In the place of RISHI, they saw the horse. The RISHI was a deep rooted YOGI. He was none other than KAPILA BHAGAVAN. BHAGAWATHAM describes the incarnations of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KAPILA BHAGAVAN comes in the list ans he preaches about SANKHYA YOGAM. The Yoga philosophy profounded by him, was called as NIRESWARA SANKHYAM. He explained the methods of deep rooted meditation and ultimately liberating one self from the bindings of world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coming to the story.,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KAPILA BHAGAVAN was in meditation. He had forgotten the entire world. He had forgotten himself in the meditation. He became one with the inner soul and attained a state of absolute silence. He never knew any thing about the surrounding happenings of the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The plot made by INDRAN was very tactful. He knew the power of KAPILA BHAGAVAN. He snatched the horse of SAGARAN and placed it, in the hermitage of KAPILA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;Kapilar was in deep meditation for a long time and he never knew about the devilish plot executed by INDRAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the search of horse, the sons of SAGARAN came to the place of KAPILA BHAGAVAN and found the horse there. They thought that KAPILA BHAGAVAN was the thief. They concluded that, HE was enacting the drama of meditation by closing HIS eyes, to escape from the royal punishment. They grew very angry. They lost their senses and reasoning power. Without analyzing the situation, they decided to kill KAPILA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, see the dimensions of ANGRY.,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They developed a strong sense of affection to the horse. It represented their prestige in the society. At the loss of it, they became depressed. Obeying the command of father, they searched for it in all directions, but in vain. At last, they have found it in a RISHI's place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the loss of a thing of pleasure, the sense of 'EGO' in the mind gets aroused to extreme. At the loss of the horse (prestige), the 'ego' of them gone to the extreme. They never analyzed the situation. At once, they decided to kill the RISHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They raised slogans, " Let HIM be killed., Let HIM be killed right at the minute.," and wished to attack KAPILA BHAGAVAN through their weapons. SAGARAN's wife was SUMATHI. She gave birth to 60,000 children. Now these 60,000 warriors of SAGARAN's heridity wished to kill the RISHI. obeying the oreders of father, they should have informed the issue to SAGARAN. But, they never did like that. They lost their mental balance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At once they gathered as a team and wished to attack the RISHI with weapons. The voice raised by the 60,000 people were of unimaginable dimensions. KAPILA BHAGAVAN was in meditaion for a long time, rolling to many hundreds of years. HIS body resembled a burning furnace, emnating heat radiations all around. KAPILA RISHI opened HIS eyes. It was burning with fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hidden fire kept inside HIS body, came out. At once, the fire burnt the sons of SAGARAN, in to ashes. Even though they were huge in number (say 60,000), they were burnt in no minutes time. It resembled as though they were roasted like small insects, in a burning fire. Now, one can understand the destiny of evil - doers, who hinder the path of devotion of a SADHU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More to come on the successive issues.,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...

He faced many battles, with enemies like THALAJANGAN, YAVANAN, SAKHAN, HAIHAYAN and BHARBHARAN. The mentioned names represent the mighty emperors of that time. On hearing about the glory of SAGARAN, they grew angry over him. They attacked him time and again, in the battle field. SAGARAN seeked the blessings of SATHGURU. He was fortuned to have a SATHGURU like HOWRVA RISHI. SATHGURU guided him towards victory, in the battle field. Obeying the words of SATHGURU, he fought bravely in the battle field and conquered the enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SAGARAN wished to punish them through death sentence. He wished to kill them. But, the SATHGURU interfered in this matter and advised him to spare the life of enemies. Obeying the words of SATHGURU, he allowed the enemies to rule their respective nations, under his sceptre. Through these victories, SAGARAN acquired many nations in the world. Knowing about the glory of him, many other emperors voluntarily obeyed at the feet of SAGARAN. Some emperors extended a friendly hand shake to SAGARAN. He accepted the friendly deal offered by them. Through compassionate love and bravery as given by SATHGURU, SAGARAN ruled the entire world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SAGARAN obeyed at the feet of SATHGURU. He seeked the blessings of SATHGURU, throughout his life. The blessings of SATHGURU made him all- powerful. The entire world obeyed at the feet of SAGARAN. The divine power of SATHGURU can change the entire world. Through SAGARAN, the SATHGURU changed the entire world. We can draw inspiration from the life story of SAGARAN. A divine secret, lies in this story. If we obey to the coomands of SATHGURU as per the divine will of BHAGAVAN, then the entire world will obey to the dictates and commands coming from our mouth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOWRVA RISHI preached him about the glory, generosity and other divine qualities of BHAGAVAN. During that time, mighty emperors used to perform a YAGNA  called ASHWAMEDHA YAGNAM. It symbolized the glory of an emperor. In this YAGNAM, BHAGAVAN was ritually invoked as YAGNA NARAYANAN. It was performed to please BHAGAVAN. As per the vedic sayings, a ruler can enter heaven by performing 100 ASHWAMEDHA YAGNAM. The SATHGURU advised him to perform this YAGNAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obeying the words of SATHGURU, SAGARAN performed the YAGNA with utmost caution and obedience. He invoked the blessings of BHAGAVAN. He prostrated at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN whole - heartedly. He thanked BHAGAVAN whole - heartedly for granting a SATHGURU like HOWRVA RISHI. He prostrated at the lotus feet of SATHGURU, time and again. His mind was filled with the divine joy of SATHGURU's abundant divine grace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As per the VEDIC sayings, the ruler of heaven was awarded with a post called DEVENDRAN. Heaven remains a place of joy with all kind of luxuries with full of enchantment and merry all around the life. Many emperors prformed ASHWAMEDHA YAGNAM, eagerly awaiting to reach the 100 th one.  INDRAN  enjoys the pleasure of heaven and he craves to remain there permanently for a long time. At the loss of luxuries, people get angry over the hindrances. The same goes well with any one holding a high post comprising of luxuries and powers. They forget the uncertainity about their life path and imagines their life to be immortal. INDRAN remains no exception to this. He was caught in the trap of post and powers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN stress the uncertainity of heaven through his preachins to ARJUNA. The mind wandering in the waves of sensual organs, seeks solace in luxuries. The luxuries enjoyed through senses remains a burning fire. The growing years adds fuel to the fire of burning desire. The burning fire of sensual passion spreads in all directions and engulfs the life path of human beings. The mind develops a sentimental attachment towards the luxuries. This attachment brings in a sense of EGO in the mind. The ego developed in the mind brings in, indecisiveness towards any upcoming hindrance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the trap of indecision, the mind takes shelter at the weapons of anger and hatred. The mind forces the human being to destroy the hindrance by force. The angry and hatred developed in the mind, ruins the life. He forgets the true identity and purpose of life. Forgetting the self - identity, leads the life to nowhere just like the vanishing clouds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, INDRAN was forced to face a hindrance in the form of SAGARAN. The royal luxuries enjoyed by him, tempted his mind towards the evil notions of life. Instead of peace, he took violence as a weapon to get rid of the hindrance. He made a devilish plot to degrade the glory of SAGARAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you want to know the dimensions of angry and hatred as proclaimed by INDRAN?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till the next issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the blessings of SATHGURU prevent us from this MAYA in the form of hatred and angry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let our life be filled with the divine joy, got through the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the divine grace of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN spread to one and all in the world, through our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA....&lt;br /&gt;                                                            &lt;br /&gt;                                                                              (TO CONTINUE...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-114343490685394828?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/114343490685394828/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=114343490685394828' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114343490685394828'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114343490685394828'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/03/sagara-charithram_27.html' title='SAGARA CHARITHRAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-114218020173828115</id><published>2006-03-13T00:27:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-03-13T01:16:41.796+09:00</updated><title type='text'>SAGARA CHARITHRAM</title><content type='html'>Vide 9 - 8,&lt;br /&gt;                                                 (9 th Skandam, 8 th Adhyayam)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time, there live a mighty emperor by name BHAHUKAN. He was ruling his country and gathered a mass support from the neighbouring emperors. As days rolled on, many emperors got envy at the success of BHAHUKAN. Once, they made a devilish plot and attacked BHAHUKAN, in an unexpected way. As he was unprepared for the war, BHAHUKAN was defeated by the enemies. He was forced to leave his country. BHAHUKAN and his wife left the palace and went to a forest. She was pregnant, during that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the forest, they met a great sage by name HOWRVA RISHI. He was a SATHGURU, in all respect. BHAHUKAN's wife wished to end her life. She was saved by HOWRVA RISHI. The SATHGURU preached her about the glory of human birth. The RISHI explained her about the evil consequences of ending her life, against the divine will of BHAGAVAN.  BHAHUKAN's wife got enlightened by the words of SATHGURU. She gave birth to a child. She handed over the child at the lotus feet of SATHGURU and seeked the blessings of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SATHGURU gave his blessings to the new born child. He named the child as SAGARAN. BHAHUKAN's wife was served with a food containing poison. As per the divine will of BHAGAVAN, she was luckily saved from the dreadly poison. But the poison entered in to the child's body. So, the baby was poisoned right from the womb. Owing to this reason, the RISHI named him as SAGARAN (SAGARAN - A child born with poison in his body, right from mother's womb).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a worldly context, one can expect the child to grow in a wrong way. Sonce it was poisoned, many people will fear about his over-all well-being. But, that was not true, in the case of SAGARAN. He received the blessings of SATHGURU. The blessings of SATHGURU can change the destiny of one's life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SAGARAN was brought up in a healthy divine environment, under the supervision of a SATHGURU, namely HOWRVA RISHI. Even though, he was weak right from his birth, he grew stronger and stronger as days rolled on. That is the glory and the divine mystery of a SATHGURU's divine grace and blessings. Their blessings can reincarnate divinity in one's life. This reincarnation of divinity will bring in a new phase of life, leading to rejeuvenation and revivification.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He became very strong in mind and body. He gathered a huge army and showed his bravery in the battle field. He regained his kingdom and became the emperor of his country. He conquered many nations. As years passed on, he became all - powerful, in ruling each and every nation in the world. He ruled the entire world, under his sceptre. Throughout his life, he seeked the blessings of SATHGURU. He obeyed the orders of SATHGURU and was fortunate to have a SATHGURU like HOWRVA RISHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the past life, he was driven out from the country. His mother was suffering in the forest. Usually people do not welcome loses in life. At the onset of a small defeat, people lose confidence in BHAGAVAN and to the words of SATHGURU. But then, that is not the right attitude towards  divinity and devotion. We should have the courage to accept the loses as blessings in disguise, as per the divine will of BHAGAVAN. During the hours of loses, we should seek the blessings of SATHGURU. SAGARAN's mother was fortunate to have a SATHGURU like HOWRVA RISHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She lost a very small landscape in this vast world. But for the loss of it, she received an unsurmountable treasure, namely the SATHGURU.  To gain a SATHGURU, one can accept the loses in life as a blessings. But, one should not leave the divine blessings of SATHGURU, for the sake of material comforts. The material comforts come and go in life, just like the passing waves in an ocean.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The wave come nearer to us. When we wish to touch it, they go back instantaneously beyound our control. We eagerly await for another wave to touch us. But the same old story repeats. In the same way, the waves of pleasure in the form of material comforts, come and go in this ocean of life. The waves oscillate to and fro in the external world. But, deep within the ocean, there lies a dorment silence, which remains all - powerful, at all times. The power of SATHGURU remains like this dorment silence of an ocean. If we catch at this dorment power, we can control the external ramifications of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hidden power lies in the divine grace of SATHGURU. SAGARAN's mother was fortunate to catch this hidden divine power of a SATHGURU, during the testing times of life. She was beaten ferociously by the wave of life, in this mighty ocean of birth and death cycle. But then, she was fortunate to seek the blessings of SATHGURU. Millions and millions of people enter into motherhood, during each and every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, how many mothers are fortunate to seek the blessings of SATHGURU?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortune to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, in our presence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let our life be filled with the divine grace of SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                           (TO CONTINUE...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-114218020173828115?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/114218020173828115/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=114218020173828115' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114218020173828115'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114218020173828115'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/03/sagara-charithram.html' title='SAGARA CHARITHRAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-114110398891437243</id><published>2006-02-28T13:29:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-02-28T14:19:48.976+09:00</updated><title type='text'>RANTHI DEVA CHARITHAM</title><content type='html'>(Vide - 9-21, 9th Skandam, 21st Adhyayam)&lt;br /&gt;                                         &lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time, there lived a MAHATHMA by name RANTHI DEVAN. He was a true devotee. He followed the principles of austerity. He was following the principles of non - possession. He forsaked every thing. He lead a simple life. He was suffering under poverty for a long time. He was starving for food and water, but of no avail. 48 days rolled on. The sufferings of poverty remained unbearable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He remained firm in his principles of devotion. He, wholeheartedly prayed at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. On the 49th day, his prayer was answered. As per the divine wish of BHAGAVAN, he got some food. He thanked BHAGAVAN, for the food granted to him. He wanted to have that food, which came accidentaly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At that time, there came a unexpected guest. He was a BRAHMIN of high spiritual value. The BRAHMIN requested some food from RANTHI DEVAN. BHAGAVAN resides in each and every one as a soul. RANTHI DEVAN, prayed at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN resding within the body of that BRAHMIN. He thanked BHAGAVAN for sending a guest of high spiritual value. He gave some food to the BRAHMIN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When he was about to have the remaining food, there came another guest. The guest was ugly in appearence. A bad smell spreaded from his body, which made him still more unreachable. RANTHI DEVAN was a MAHATHMA. He had the universal vision of seeing BHAGAVAN in each and every human being. He thanked BHAGAVAN for sending a guest of noble heart. He gave some food to that guest. RANTHI DEVAN was left with very small amount of food.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When he was about to have the food, there came another guest. The guest was followed by dogs. He requested some food from RANTHI DEVAN. RANTHI DEVAN handed over the left over food to the third guest. The guest shared that food with his dogs. Now, RANTHI DEVAN was left with no more food, to passify his hunger. He searched for some thing to quench his thirst. He was fortuned to have some water kept in the pot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On seeing the water, his mind got passified. When he was about to drink the water, there came a cobbler. The cobbler requested some water from RANTHI DEVAN. RANTHI DEVAN happily handed over the water pot, to the guest. The guest drank the water and went away from the place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RANTHI DEVAN prayed to BHAGAVAN,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" Oh! BHAGAVAN! I don't want any mystical occult powers from you. I don't want salvation (MUKTHI -LIBERATION) from this cycle of birth and death. On the contrary, I want to beg sufferings from you. Let me burden my self with the sufferings of entire mankind. You remain all- pervasive as a soul in each and every one. Let the blessings of BHAGAVAN grant me the power to eradicate the sufferings of mankind. Let the entire world be filled with joy and happiness, at the expense of my life."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RANTHI DEVAN gave every thing to the guest, even during the testing times of poverty. He prayed for the well-being of entire mankind, at the expense of his personal life. He abandoned every thing. He was caught in the trap of the sufferings of poverty. But, he never developed a sense of angry and frustration towards the evils prevailing in the society. On the contrary, he developed a sense of love and compassion towards the entire mankind. He prayed for the entire world, forgetting totally about his personal well- being and nourishment. He remained selfless. Such is the glory of a MAHATHMA (SATHGURU).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN wished to explain the glory of a MAHATHMA, through the life story of RANTHI DEVAN. The trinity gods in the form of BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHRA BHAGAVAN came to his place as a guest (BHAGAVAN can be found in the place of SATHGURU). BHAGAVAN enacted this drama and proved the world that the inner heart of a MAHATHMA remains selfless, even during the hours of endanger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RANTHI DEVAN  followed the principles of austerity, till his end of life. He had the fortune of seeing BHAGAVAN in true form. BHAGAVAN  appeared before him. RANTHI DEVAN prostrated on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. He was very happy to have the DARSHAN of BHAGAVAN. His mind was contented with the divine joy of BHAGAVAN. He achieved the ultimate goal of life - attaining BHAGAVAN in true sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the blessings of BHAGAVAN, ranthi devan was able to win the MAYA (illusion) in the form of sufferings. With the blessings of BHAGAVAN and through the constant chanting of RADHEKRISHNA nama japam as givne by our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, we can also cross the dire illusions in the form of pain and sufferings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The noble heart of RANTHI DEVAN  symbolizes the inner heart of a SATHGURU. The heart of a SATHGURU is full of compassion and divine love. The SATHGURU burdens the sufferings of devotee's, on to their shoulders. The SATHGURU cleanses the sins of devotee's through their chanting. They pray for the well- being of entire mankind - namely LOKHA SAMASTHA SUKHINO BHAVANTHU.  We are fortune to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, in our presence. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU, make our life a blissful one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                            (CONCLUDED)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-114110398891437243?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/114110398891437243/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=114110398891437243' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114110398891437243'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/114110398891437243'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/02/ranthi-deva-charitham.html' title='RANTHI DEVA CHARITHAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-113976286062620248</id><published>2006-02-13T00:32:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-02-13T01:47:40.700+09:00</updated><title type='text'>PURANJAYA UPAKYANAM</title><content type='html'>TRIUMPHANT VICTORY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time, there lived a mighty emperor by name IKSHVAGU. He ruled the entire world, under his sceptre. Once, he performed a YAGNA to please the departed souls ultimately bringing in peace and prosperity to his life. He had a son called VIGUSHI. For the sake of YAGNA, he ordered his son to go to the forest and collect some ritual things. Obeying the order, VIGUSHI went to the forest and roamed to different places and collected the things. He hunted many animals. He felt weary and tired. He wanted to have some food. He searched for food,but in vain. His devilish instinct came to play. He was tempted by it, and wish to have the meat of rabbit. He did the sin of killing a rabbit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He returned to palace and handed over the things. His father asked the blessings of VASISHTAR (Sathguru). Usually, the ritual things were purified by sprinkling some water and through chanting of vedic hymns. This process of purification is called as PROKSHANAM. Vasishtar was called to perform it. He saw the things. At once, he realized the sin of VIGUSHI. He told IKSHVAGU, " the things gathered by him are of no use to the divine ritual. They are unethical to religious norms. He had commited a sin. Please find alternative. He had the meat of a rabbit. Do some thing on this."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having received those firing words, IKSHVAGU ordered his son to leave the country at the earliest. Obeying his order, VIGUSHI went on pilgrimage to different temples and seeked the blesings of BHAGAVAN. His sin was thus washed away by it. During this time, IKSHVAGU ruled the country. He was spiritually inclined to listening to the preachings of VASISHTAR. He chose the path of devotion and wished to attain salvation. He was firm in devotion. He forsaked the ruling powers, and went on complete meditation. He finally attained salvation, leaving his material body in this material world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A country without a ruler behaves as a destitude. Having left with no other option, VIGUSHI was asked to take the ruling power of the country. He ruled the country with utmost care and caution. He did many YAGNA's and received the blessings of noble seers. He was fortuned to have a son by name, PURANJAYAN, who is going to bring glory to his name. Puranjayan was brought up in the helathy environment of divine sanccity. He was blessed by noble seers. Their blessings are ging to bring name and fame to PURANJAYAN. He was also called by INDRAVAHAN, KAGUTHSTHAN. A story run behinds this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The story is as follows,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" Once there broke a ferocious war between good and evil. The war was between DEVA's (righteous) and ASURA's (evil minded). In the beginning, the power of evil took hedge over the righteousness. The ASURA's fought well. They attacked the DEVA's with deadly weapons. The army of deva's splitted and they were driven out of the battle field. On realizing their miserable state, they sought the help of their SATHGURU. Seeking the blessings of him, the DEVA's approached PURANJAYAN to save their lives. Obeying the divine command of BHAGAVAN, PURANJAYAN took the leadership of the army of DEVA's. Obeying the command of BHAGAVAN, DEVENDRAN (the ruler of DEVA's) took the form of a big buffalow. He became the vechicle of PURANJAYAN in the battle field. So PURANJAYAN was called as INDRAVAHAN. He kept a very firm hold on the back of this buffalow. So he was called KAGUTHSTHAN (a man having a very firm hold on the back of a buffalow).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the battle, many ASURA'S threw weapons on PURANJAYAN. On relaizing the upcoming danger, PURANJAYAN meditated for a second and threw arrows from his bow. It resembled as a rainfall in the battle field. The arrows attacked the ASURA's and no one was left unattended by the arrows. Thousands and thousands of heads of the army of ASURA's fel on the ground. The heads choked off from the body of ASURA's resembled like a mountain built by heads. Thus the army of ASURA's were shattered into pieces. The DEVA's blew their triumphant conch and announced their victory over the ASURA'S in the battle field, to the world. Thus PURANJAYAN brought victory to the DEVA'S. PURANJAYAN means, one who had the victory of the enemies palace. On realizing their loss, the left over ASURA's hide themselves in the lower world kept beneath the surface of earth namely PATHALA LOKHAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PURANJAYAN was a normal human being. He was brought in  the healthy divine atmosphere. This atmosphere and exposure gave him the inner strength to fight against the ASURA's. The glory of human birth is pronounced well, in this story. The human birth is far superior to any birth in any higher worlds of spirituality. One can draw inspiration form the story that," a child brought up in the environment of a SATHGURU through the blessings of a SATHGURU can rule the entire world without fail. The divine blessings of SATHGURU can protect that child from any evil minded people in the form of ASURA's. The child can taste the nectar of victory over the evil." Why can't we taste it, in our lifespan?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meaning behind the story:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puranjayan represents the soul (an eagering devotee). Vasishtar represnts the role of SATHGURU. Asura's represent the evil minded people in and around. The deadly weapons repreent the devilish master plot and the tricks and bites kept by them to trap us. The arrows sent by PURANJAYAN is nothing but the NAMA JAPAM (RADHEKRISHNA NAMA JAPAM). The arrows resembled a rainfall. In the same way, the chanting should be continous without any pause. Indran represents the control over bodily organs. The defeat of Indran represnts the bodily imbalances in the form of hot, cold, summer, winter, pleasure, pain, good, bad, health, illness etc., The victory of PURANJAYAN represents the victory of a JEEVATHMA (AN EAGERING SOUL).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The task kept before PURNAJAYAN, seemed to be unaccomplishable. He seeked the blessings of BHAGAVAN and SATHGURU. Having a very strong faith in their words, HE fought againt the mighty rivals namely ASURA's. In the same way, we usually astonish at the prevailing evils in the society. We lack the courage to fight against those social evils. We fear about them. We keep our self locked in our house. But, once if we take a firm decision to fight against these evils, then BHAGAVAN will grant us the necessary strength and courage to win in the battle field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The strength of inner soul is enormous. Through constant chanting of NAMA JAPAM, one can kindle this spirit. During the time of testing moments, BHAGAVAN will save our life. It is our bounded duty to remember him without fail. The NAMA JAPAM given by our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, namely RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM is the opening gateway to MUKTHI (salvation). The victory of inner soul is described as salvation (salvation from worldly bindings).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are forune to have our SATHGURU-POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, in our presence. Let the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM bring us the strength and courage to destory the evils in to ashes. Let the glory of SATHSANGAM and SATHGURU be spreaded always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHRI POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHRI RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                           (CONCLUDED).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-113976286062620248?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/113976286062620248/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=113976286062620248' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113976286062620248'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113976286062620248'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/02/puranjaya-upakyanam.html' title='PURANJAYA UPAKYANAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-113836716333317585</id><published>2006-01-27T21:58:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-01-27T22:06:03.346+09:00</updated><title type='text'>ATHRI MAHARISHI</title><content type='html'>ATHRI MAHARISHI – PRAJA SRISHTI&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time there lived a very great sage called ATHRI MAHARISHI. He possessed immense spiritual powers. He was a man of noble heart with a divine passion. He was following vigorous meditation. He meditated the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN to his heart’s full. He performed the divine rituals in the true sense of devotion, devoid of any superficial procedures in the form of customs and traditions. His wife was ANASOOYA. She was leading a simple family life. She obeyed the orders of ATHRI MAHARISHI and assisted him in his divine rituals. The couples lead a true divine filled life with full of divine happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a certain period of time, they longed for a child. They prayed whole-heartedly on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. They prayed for a divine child resembling BHAGAVAN in all attributes of divine qualities. During the time of creation, BHAGAVAN takes the form of BRAHMA. The couples prayed to BRAHMA. Their meditation was powerful. Obeying to their true devotion, BRAHMA (CREATOR) appeared before them. The couples prostrated on to the divine feet of BRAHMA. They praised the glory of BRAHMA by Vedic hymns. Pleased by their devotion, BRAHMA blessed the couple by HIS DIVINE GRACE.      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After seeking the blessings of BRAHMA, ATHRI MAHARISHI continued his vigorous meditation. ATHRI RISHI and ANASOOYA went to a place called RUKSHA GIRI (a mountain). The place was beautiful. It was covered with beautiful flowers all around it. Sweet fragrance coming from the flowers enchanted the place. A river by name NIRVINDHYA was flowing along the sides of mountain. The birds made beautiful sounds and the sweetness was spreading in all directions. The place was characterized by dreadful cold winter and scorching hot summer. The conditions seemed to be unbearable. The heat and cold alternatively affected the people residing in it. Only a true YOGI of high spiritual powers can live in that place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ATHRI RISHI was a true yogi. He performed the YOGIC PRANAYAMAM (BREATH CONTROL). Through the powers of it, he conquered the climatic disturbances in the form of heat and cold. Through the control of breath, one can easily control his emotions. When the mind gets disturbed, the breath moves rapidly in and out from the body. When the breath gets calm down, the mind also attains equilibrium. This state of balanced mind is called as YOGA BHAVAM. Through this, one can easily withstand the climatic changes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ATHRI RISHI stood on one leg and folded the other leg. He performed meditation in this posture for 100 years. He stood on the tip of his one leg and balanced his weight. His body temperature grew very high. His entire body resembled a burning furnace. As years passed on, heat in the form of divine fire emanated from his body. This divine fire was unbearable. The fire was spreading in all directions through wind force. The divine fire coming from the body of ATHRI RISHI was unbearable to any human being in the entire world. People prayed to BHAGAVAN to save their lives from this scorching divine fire. The divine powers&lt;br /&gt;of a SATHGURU remains unbearable to any human being. They possess immense powers. They keep themselves calm and behave as though they are powerless. But, only during the time of endanger, their true powers will manifest to save the fellowmen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ATHRI RISHI prayed for a divine incarnation in human form as HIS child. He wished for a child with the powers of creation resembling the BRAHMA, the God of creation. He wished that the child should have the powers to protect the entire world, resembling the VISHNU, the God of protection. He wished that the child should have the powers to destroy the evils completely, just like RUDHRA BHAGAVAN, namely the God of destruction. He longed for a child with all these 3 qualities. BHAGAVAN plays 3 roles namely creation, protection and destruction. BHAGAVAN suitably characterize himself with 3 different qualities namely SATHVIC (Calmness), RAJAS (Violence) and TAMAS (Sluggishness) and accordingly performs the 3 different roles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ATHRI RISHI and ANASOOYA longed for a child with these 3 divine qualities. Their meditation was powerful enough to bring BHAGAVAN to their place. The BHAKTHI of ATHRI RISHI and ANASOOYA should be taken as a role model. People long for a child, whole-heartedly. How many of us really long for BHAGAVAN as a child in our house?&lt;br /&gt;We wish for a child to continue our heredity. But then, life never ends there. The purpose of life is to enjoy BHAGAVAN in human form during our life- time, it self. As a human being, we have the birth- right to pray for a child as that of BHAGAVAN, resembling him in all the divine qualities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the story, pleased by their true devotion, the trinity Gods namely BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHRA BHAGAVAN appeared before them. The couples prostrated on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. BRAHMA was seated on his HAMSA VAHANAM (divine swan). VISHNU BHAGAVAN was seated on his GARUDA VAHANAM (divine bird resembling a eagle). RUDHRA BHAGAVAN was seated on his RISHABHA VAHANAM (divine buffalo).&lt;br /&gt;The couples were blessed with the divine grace of BHAGAVAN. The couples praised the glory of BHAGAVAN through VEDIC hymns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ATHRI RISHI asked BHAGAVAN, “ Oh! BHAGAVAN! We prayed for a child with the divine qualities of BHAGAVAN. I am surprised to have the DARSHAN of trinity gods in the form of BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHRA BHAGAVAN. I wish to know the meaning behind this.” To this BHAGAVAN replied, “My dear son, you asked for a child equivalent to BHAGAVAN. In this respect, nothing is equivalent to us. So, as per your request, we wish to take 3 divine incarnations in human form, resembling our divine qualities in all attributes.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The prayer made by ATHRI RISHI and ANASOOYA was finally answered. The couples gave birth to 3 divine incarnations. The first child was CHANDRAN (MOON GOD). He resembled the BRAHMA in the divine qualities of CREATION. The second child was DHATHATHREYAR, a true embodiment of YOGA. He resembled the VISHNU BHAGAVAN in the divine qualities of PROTECTION. The third child was DHURVASA RISHI. He resembled the RUDHRA BHAGAVAN, in the divine qualities of destroying the evils. The evil- minded people were terrified by the curse of DHURVASA RISHI. His curse burnt the life of evil people in to ashes, resembling the qualities of RUDHRA BHAGAVAN. Thus the couples gave birth to 3 divine incarnations in human form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The role of ANASOOYA should not be forgotten. She assisted ATHRI RISHI in his divine rituals. She obeyed the commands of ATHRI RISHI and longed for a child as that of BHAGAVAN. The stage of motherhood brings totality to a woman’s life. Through the powers of prayer, a woman can give birth to a child as that of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let us draw inspiration from their lives. Let our mind be purified through prayer. Let us humbly prostrate on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN time and again. Let us be submissive to the commands of our SATHGURU –POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA. Let the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, as given by our SATHGURU- POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, bring BHAGAVAN to our home in human form. Let us enjoy the divine happiness of RADHEKRISHNA CHANTING continuously. Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM be spread always.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHRI RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                               (CONCLUDED)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-113836716333317585?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/113836716333317585/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=113836716333317585' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113836716333317585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113836716333317585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/01/athri-maharishi.html' title='ATHRI MAHARISHI'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-113705068339738864</id><published>2006-01-12T15:26:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-02-13T00:32:00.736+09:00</updated><title type='text'>NRUGA UPAKYANAM - BRAHMANA (SATHGURU) MAHIMA</title><content type='html'>VIDE (10 -2) - 64&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NRUGA RAJAN prayed to KRISHNA BHAGAVAN,&lt;br /&gt;"Oh!

The YOGI's practice ASTANGA YOGA (8 folded meditation). Even after a very long time, most of them search you till their end of life. Their divine search continues in the next birth. In this way, many noble souls search you for many births. You rule the DEVA's. You are the creator of the universe. You are the protector of the universe. Your divine abode remains the ultimate destination for all human beings. You reside in each and every one as the soul in the body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The VEDIC hymns praise your glory. You protect your devotee's without fail. Your divinity remains infinite. All divine qualities of perfection sprouts from you. Your divine incarnation in the form of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is a blessing to one and all. You have taken this human form to destroy the evil minded persons. I am very fortune to have your DARSHAN as KRISHNA BHAGAVAN in human form. Your DARSHAN made my life purposeful and fruitful. To enjoy the fruits of PUNYA KARMA, I wish to leave for DEVALOKAM. Please permit me. Let my mind be filled with your divine DARSHAN at all times in all places. Wherever I may be, let my mind be filled with your divine DARSHAN always. You are the ultimade abode for all human beings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The universe takes shelter at your divine form. All the worlds are blessed with your divinity. During the time of creation, Your divine will rules the entire world and a new life begins. You are the source of permanent joy. I pray at your lotus feet time and again. Wherever I may be, What ever my state may be, let my mind be surrendered on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. Please grant me this boon. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having spoken those words, NRUGA RAJAN prostrated on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. KRISHNA BHAGAVAN gave him permission to enter the DEVALOKAM. A divine flight from DEVALOKAM came there. NRUGA RAJAN entered in to it. He travelled in the sky and reached DEVALOKAM. He enjoyed the wordly luxuries as a king. He was taken to DEVALOKAM to enjoy the royal luxuries of celestial abode. He had the fortune of seeing KRISHNA BHAGAVAN IN HUMAN FORM. All these divine glories came to him through the blessings of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even the meditation done by RISHI's and YOGI's for hundreds and hundreds of years cannot match the BHAKTHI got through a SATHGURU. The blessings of SATHGURU is the opening gate way to MUKTHI (LIBERATION). BHAGAVAN COMES TO THE PLACE OF A BHAKTHA, to accept his true devotion and his unswerved faith on to his SATHGURU. The glory of SATHGURU brings BHAGAVAN nearer to a BHAKTHA. In this regard, a SATHGURU forms a bridge between BHAGAVAN AND BHAKTHA. Their blessings paves way for BHAGAVAN to reach the place of a BHAKTHA at the earliest. This path is simple. The path of passing various stages of testing times and reaching BHAGAVAN through hierarchy after leaving various worlds of celestial abode namely DEVALOKAM, RISHI LOKAM, PITHRU LOKAM, BRAHMA LOKAM etc., seems to be tedious. Any one can follow the simple path of KRISHNA BHAKTHI got through a SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KRISHNA BHAGAVAN narrated the glory of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) as follows,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Humiliationg and snatching the wealth of BRAHMINS is a dreadful sin. It resembles a fuming fire and this fire leaves nothing. It ruins the heridity of the sinner and leaves him to ashes as well as his successsive generations too. The external fire can burn the tree leaving the roots hidden in the soil. But this fire, burns the family root namely the sinner and the offsprings in the form of branches and makes them to ashes. This dreadful sin is more poisonous than any poison prevailing in the world. The poisons can be antidoted with medicines. But this sin can never be annulled with any medicine. Nothing can digest this dreadful sin. The person who snatches the wealth of BRAHMINS UNKNOWINGLY ruins the life of 3 generations including himself. The person who snatches the welath of BRAHMINS KNOWINGLY BY FORCE ruins the life of 10 generations including his life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a king, protecting the welfare of BRAHMINS come in the priority list of my official duties. I consider it to be my prime duty to protect the welfare of BRAHMINS ultimately leading to the prosperity of the nation. The tears coming from the deprived (BRAHMINS) is a bane to the country and can bring in various kinds of atrocities to the nation. I am afraid of this dreadful sin. So, I beseech You all, Oh! YADHAVA's! Let you never commit this sin of humiliating and hurting the BRAHMINS through your words and actions. Let you give due respect to BRAHMINS. Let their blessings be with you. In my deep heart, I love BRAHMINS. I seek their blessings in the guidance of governing the nation. I take each and every precautionary measures to save their livelihood. But then many kings spoil their life unknowingly by hurting the BRAHMINS. Sooner or later, their life will become miserable. They will lose their ruling power. They will be conquered by enemies. Soon they may lead a life of slaves. The sin commited by them will continue to affect their offsprings too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KRISHNA BHAGAVAN stressed the importance of protecting the welfare of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) through the life story of NRUGA RAJAN. The blessings of BRAHMINS is a permanent treasure. On the contrary, one should not commit the sin of hurting the BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) by means of their words and actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortune to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. The blessings of our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA is a permanent treasure to us. Let our mind be surrendered on to the lotus feet of our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU bring us KRISHNA BHAGAVAN to our place just like NRUGA RAJAN having the DARSHAN of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN in the barren well. Let the glory of SATHGURU and SATHSANGAM be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(CONCLUDED)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-113705068339738864?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/113705068339738864/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=113705068339738864' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113705068339738864'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/113705068339738864'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2006/01/nruga-upakyanam-brahmana-sathguru.html' title='NRUGA UPAKYANAM - BRAHMANA (SATHGURU) MAHIMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-113565911205242948</id><published>2005-12-27T13:17:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-12-27T15:05:17.240+09:00</updated><title type='text'>NRUGA UPAKYANAM - BRAHMANA (SATHGURU) MAHIMA</title><content type='html'>NRUGA RAJAN narrated the evil consequences of humiliating the BRAHMINS. He explained his past life to KRISHNA BHAGAVAN as follows,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" Oh! BHAGAVAN! You are all - pervasive. You remain omnipotent, omnipresent and you are dearer to all. Your compassion is infinite. Your love is abundant. You rule the universe through your un - swerved divine command. All actions lead a man towards salvation by seeking the blessings of you. Now, i humbly pray at you to dictate my mind to reveal my past life. Obeying your divine command, let me explain my past life. I gave lakhs and lakhs of cows to BRAHMINS. The cows which were given by me remained countless in numbers. Large number of BRAHMINS took part in the YAGNA. Each of them were honoured with costiliest items. The charitable work continued for many days. Thousnads and thousands of cows were kept in the cattle field. The cows were kept as a royal treasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A cow belonging to a BRAHMIN mixed with my cows. Unknowingly, I gave that cow to another BRAHMIN. As per the Vedic norms, a thing that was given to a BRAHMIN should never be taken back. A person who commits this sin, will experience the torture of hell. The issue remained unnoticed by me. As a ruler, I made a great mistake of snatching the wealth of a BRAHMIN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both the BRAHMINS came to my court. The issue was opened in the Royal Court. I commited a sin of snatching the cow of a BRAHMIN. As apunishment, I have to receive the torture of hell. I begged at the lotus feet of BRAHMINS to save my life from this DOWNFALL. The BRAHMINS were filled with true devotion. No one can judge their inner heart. Even a curse got from them will be a boon in disguise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I requested the BRAHMINS to spare that single cow. I requested them that instead of that single cow, I would give them one lakhs cows. To this one BRAHMIN said,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" As per the Vedic norms, the belongings of a BRAHMIN should never be snatched by undue means. Knowingly or unknowingly one should not commit the sin of humiliating the BRAHMINS. You look only at the number count. So you are equating one cow to one lakh cows. But these figures will not come in the divine account. We accept poverty as a blessing in disguise. We are not greedy. We follow self - contentment from the early ages of our life. The blessings got from us will remain a permanent treasure to you. The blessings will lead you to DEVALOKAM. There you remain for a long time as you wish. The fruits of PUNYAM got from the blessings of BRAHMINS is infinite. So, on your side you can never compensate it through material mathematics. You can never purchase BHAKTHI. I will be contented to have my cow. I don't want any thing more. I will not accept any thing other than that. "&lt;br /&gt;Having spoken these words, the BRAHMIN left the royal court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I (NRUGA RAJAN) requested the other BRAHMIN to accept my offerings. To this HE said,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" I want only my cow. Even if you give 10,000 more cows in addition to the 100,000 cows, I will not accept it. To me, it is of no use. I follow the principles of true devotion. My mind will yield only to unconditional divine love and not to material means. My life is ruled by BHAGAVAN, not by material leaders in the form of king. We as BRAHMINS remain indifferent to this material world. We shed out the MAYA from our mind. We will not be carried away by your trap of granting 100,000 cows in exchange to the dreadful sin commited by you. The extent of sufferings remains like a huge rock . The material offerings remains to be like sandle particles in cmparision to them. The sin commited by you is really dreadful. Knowingly or unknowingly, you caused pain in the hearts of a true BRAHMIN. I leave from this place at the earliest. "&lt;br /&gt;Having spoken these words, the BRAHMIN left the royal court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both the BRAHMINS left the court. I commited a sin. So, I was taken to the HELL by YAMA DHOOTHA'S.&lt;br /&gt;( YAMA DARMA RAJAN REMAINS NEUTRAL IN HIS JUDGEMENTS. He never follow favouritism towards any body. He remain selfless. He obeys the divine command of BHAGAVAN. He explains the fruits of PUNYA KARMA and PAPA KARMA (PUNYA KARMA - FRUITFUL ACTIONS, PAPA KARMA - FUTILE ACTIONS). Then, HE suitably dictates the soul to take a suitable form. After attaining a suitable form, the person undergoes the sufferings of HELL. The person gets purified by it. Then he / she enters in to the higher worlds of royal luxuries namely DEVALOKAM. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YAMA DARMA RAJAN asked me, " You had performed a very big YAGNA. The fruits of PUNYA KARMA  got from it, remains infinite. I cannot even judge the extent of your life in DEVALOKAM. But, at the same time you had commited a sin of humiliating the BRAHMINS through your deeds. For that sin, you have to undergo the tortures of HELL. Do you want to enjoy the fruits of PUNYA KARMA at first or else PAPA KARMA?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YAMA DARMA RAJAN asked me to chose among PUNYA and PAPA KARMA. I chosed PAPA KARMA first. I chosed the sufferings of HELL. Having listened to my words, HE dictated me to "GO DOWNFALL". On listening to the words, I found my self  falling from sky. On reaching the ground, I found that my body was changed to a lizard. I became a lizard get trapped in the barren well. I remained in the barren well for a long time as a mighty lizard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NRUGA RAJAN told to BHAGAVAN, " Oh! BHAGAVAN! you love BRAHMINS deep in your heart. You are a generous person. You do philanthropic activities. BRAHMINS receive honours from your hands. I see you as the BHAGAVAN. You are the creator of universe. You protect the worlds. You are the destroyer of evil doers. Evil minded people has to undergo sufferings of hell. Your life makes the entire world a blissful one. I was longing for a long time, to have the DARSHAN (sight) of you. My prayer was answered. The curse given by BRAHMINS were blessings in disguise.  The PUNYAM  gained through them fetched me good fruits of attaining MUKTHI at the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN.  I surrendered beautiful things on to the lotus feet of BRAHMINS. But, they are all material things of finite value. But, in return to it, the blessings given by them fetched me BHAGAVAN in my presence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN dictated my life to take care of BRAHMINS. It remains a prime duty of a king to protect the welfare of BRAHMINS ultimately leading to the prosperity of the nation. Because the BRAHMINS represents the true form of boon giving tree in human form. I was fortuned to have such noble hearts in my presence during that time. Their blessings gave me a new life. I was fortuned to have the DARSHAN of BHAGAVAN only through the blessings of them. Your divine will rules my heart and soul. The blessings of BRAHMINS rule my life towards mukthi (liberation). Without passing through them, no one can enter the world of VAIKUNTAM (LIBERATION). The SATHGURU (BRAHMINS) form the bridge between devotee and BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had the fortune of remembering my past life. It seems to be of great surprise that how come I was able to have my past memory? I feel, it might have come from the blessings of them. The reverred souls blees each and every one. I was eagerly waiting to attain liberation from this material world of illusions. On my own, I was not able to come out of that MAYA. The blessings of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) made my path easy. Now, I am at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN, seeing in visible human form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NRUGA RAJAN went to YAMA LOKAM. Even YAMA DARMA RAJAN was puzzled to predict the life span of PUNYAM as given by BRAHMINS. One can see the glory of SATHGURU FROM THIS CRYSTAL CLEAR.  He was asked to enjoy the luxuries of DEVALOKAM till his heart's full. Then, from there HE will not downfall to lower worlds. But, instead they will be pushed up by SATHGURU. The SATHGURU forms the ladder. One can easily climb up in the path of BHAKTHI  by making use of them. At the end of their life, they will go to VAIKUNTAM of BHAGAVAN. HE will become one among the VISHNU DHOOTHA'S.&lt;br /&gt;(VISHNU DHOOTHA'S - SERVANTS OF BHAGAVAN, VAIKUNTAM - PLACE OF LIBERATION, NAMELY THE DIVINE ABODE OF BHAGAVAN.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The blessings of SATHGURU will bring prosperity in all sense. One can enjoy the luxuries of this material world. Then after leaving this body, one can take divine celestial form and remain permanent in the divine abode of BHAGAVAN namely VAIKUNTAM. The blessings of them will bring enormous prosperity. In the same way, the curse received from them will bring utmost atrocity. They are sympathetic. Their heart is very soft. If, we cause pain to it, it ultimately affects the soul namely BHAGAVAN. So, this in turn brings problems.  Thus the curse got from them will ruin one's life. Let our mind be tamed towards non - commitment of this dreadful sin. Let our mind be enchanted with the blessings of SATHGURU always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let our words, deeds, actions, and thoughts be towards satisfying the wishes of our SATHGURU. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA MAKE OUR LIFE PROSPEROUS IN ALL SENSE.  Let the glory of SATHSANGAM and SATHGURU be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATH SANG KI JAI!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...

Once four friends of Krishna Bhagavan namely SAMBAN, PRADYUMNAN, CHARUBANU and GADHAN went to forest. They were playing in the forest for a long time. After a long play, they searched for a well to quench their thirst. They roamed to different places of the forest. At last, they found a well. They peeped in to it, to look out for water. But the well was barren. There they saw an astonishing creature. It was a mighty lizard resembling like a rock. They were surprised to see the lizard in the well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having got pity at the lizard, they tried to pull it out from the well. They tied it with strong ropes. Having tied it to one end, they took hold of the other end. Then they pulled the rope with all their might, but in vain. They were surprised about it. They informed the issue to KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. Listening to their words, KRISHNA BHAGAVAN came there. HE  took the lizard out of the well effortlessly with HIS left hand. The lizard was fortunate to have the touch of BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Immediately the lizard changed to a beautiful DEVA (Celestial incarnation). He was beautiful. His body was glittering like a molten gold of true colours. He was wearing beautiful dresses. An enchanting fragrance came from his body. KRISHNA BHAGAVAN knows every thing. HE know the past life of this DEVA. For the sake of HIS  friends, BHAGAVAN asked the DEVA  to narrate the story in full.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVAN  said to the DEVA, " Your body glitters like a gold. I feel, you must be one among the DEVA'S of celestial abode. You seem to be filled with divinity. But for some reason you remained as a lizard in this barren well. We are eager to know about your life. If you wish, you can share it with us. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The DEVA prostrated on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. He started narrating his story as follows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" Oh! BHAGAVAN! You are the primordial source of creation. You know every thing. Your divine will rules the life of each and every one. Obeying your divine command, let me tell you about my self. I belong to the proud heridity of IKSHVAAKU RAJA. I was the son of him. People called me as NRUGA RAJAN. Oh! Bhagavan! You might have heard my name in the list of philanthropists, who gave abundant wealth to seers. Oh! Bhagavan! You are the soul residing in each and every one. You are the creator of universe. Without your knowledge, no worldly actions can take place. So, you know about my past life. Obeying your divine command, let me narrate about my philanthropic activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was performing a very big YAGNA (Sacrifice). At the end of it, I gave infinite number of cows to the deprived people. The number of sand particles in the earth remain countless. The number of stars in the sky remain countless. Rain drops falling down from heaven to earth remains abundant. In the same way, the number of cows which were given by me remained countless. People use to describe them to be infinite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cows were good in shape. They were young. They were pure breed with beautiful appearence. Each of the cows was decorated with gold on their horns. All the cows were bought by me through right means without cheating any body. Each of the cows was given with their calves. They were all decorated with beautiful silk clothes on their horns. They were decorated with pure silver on their hoof. The price value of each cow remained countless, in the material sense. On a philanthropic basis, I gave lakhs and lakhs of cows to noble seers of high spiritual value.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BRAHMINS (reverred devotee's) who received the gift, were poise in their character. They were noble souls of high spiritual value. They were given beautiful dresses. The BRAHMINS had the divine qualities like determination in devotion, selflessness, self - contentment, discipline, inner harmony and peace, pure devotion, humble and other divne qualities of utmost spiritual value. They were true embodiment of pure devotion.  They lead a straight - forward life, devoid of falseness. They were following the principles of honesty without any deviation. They performed strenous meditation on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN. They were following the true principle s of devotion as per vedic norms. They were in their early ages of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They took poverty as a way of life. They welcomed poverty as a blessing in disguise. They lead a simple life. They were not priviledged to have even the basic necessities of life in the form of food, shelter and dress. All the above qualities revealed their true divinity. They were true BRAHMINS. (A critical note should be made here that, BRAHMINS  DOES NOT IMPLY ANY CASTE. One who knows BRAHMAM (PRIMORDIAL SOURCE OF CREATION) in real sense through devotion is called as BRAHMIN). The YAGNA was performed in a right place in an appropriate time. The gifts were given on charity to noble souls. The 3 parameters namely time, place and the receiver remains essential in a charitable work. In the YAGNA, all the 3 parameters were maintained as per vedic norms, without any faults.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I gave them various things namely cows, lands, gold ornaments, houses, horses, elephants, several servant maids, silver vessels, silver ornaments, silk dresses, diamonds, utensils, golden chariots, nice beddings and all other necessary items to lead a happy life. The BRAHMINS never asked any thing from me. They were leading a simple life. Inspite of the sufferings of poverty, they remained firm in their devotion. Their pure devotion outbeating the worldly sufferings fetched them massive wealth. They became a billionaires from the state of paupers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHAGAVAN residing in me as the soul, dictated my life towards this noble cause. I took no pride over that charitable act. Every thing went well, as per the divine wish of BHAGAVAN. I humbly prayed at the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN for granting me such a massive wealth, to share it with reverred seers. It was a very big fortune to have them in my place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The YAGNA went well. The BRAHMINS chanted vedic hymns. Many ritual things were surrendered in the divine fire. The beautiful fragrance coming from the YAGNA  spreaded to all directions. The people who inhaled it, were relived of their diseases. The sweet fragrance prevailed in the atmosphere for a long time. This indirectly benefited the plants to grow well. The trees gave beautiful fruits of high medicinal value. The medicinal fruits made the life of each and every one a blissful one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The divine ashes left in the YAGNA were distributed to the common public, as a divine gift (PRASADAM).&lt;br /&gt;The people enjoyed a true sense of divinity by virtue of the YAGNA. A part of the PRASADAM was mixed in the rivers. The rivers remained fertile always. All these true happenings made me happy always. I prostrate on to the lotus feet of the reverred seers (BRAHMINS).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The blesings of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) remains a permanent trasure to any one. They represent the BHAGAVAN  in human form. Their heart is filled with true devotion. They meditate constantly on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN for the welfare of mankind. They remain selfless in their words and deeds. Their glory cannot be expalined in material words. I humbly pray at their lotus feet to bless my life with pure devotion. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NRUGA RAJAN narrated the glory of BRAHMINS (SATHGURU) in a nut shell. He continued further, to narrate the evil consequences of humiliating the reverred souls of pure devotion, namely BRAHMINS. NRUGA RAJAN praised the glory of BRAHMINS. He received the blessings of BRAHMINS. Inspite of all these glories, he became a lizard in his later life. There must be some reason for his downfall.

They were of royal heridity. They abandoned their royal luxuries. They lead a simple life. They were following the path of BHAKTHI. They were headed by a noble leader by name PRAACHEENA PARHICIS. The leader was a true devotee of BHAGAVAN. They performed vigorous meditation for thousands of years, to attain salvation. Their prayer was heard by BHAGAVAN. BHAGAVAN came to their place as NARADA BHAGAVAN (SATHGURU). PRAACHEENA PARHICIS prostrated on to the lotus feet of  NARADA BHAGAVAN. He asked to sage NARADA, "O! Reverred seer! Please explain me about the nature of this life. Where does it goes? What should be the aim of this life? I humbly seek your blessings on this."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;To this, sage NARADA narrated a story as follows.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;" There was a beautiful park. It was covered with beautiful flowers all around. There lived a pair of deers. The deers enjoyed their life happily in the park. They were roaming freely in the park. A dhole (a kind of wolf) was living in the park. The dhole use to prey at other animals. It grew fat as days rolled on. The dhole saw the deers. The dhole was carefully following the deers. It was waiting for a suitable time to prey at the deers. The deers were unaware of the following danger. The deers continued their happy marching, as usual. The dhole was calmly following the deers. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;At that time, there came a hunter. He saw the deers. He took his bow and arrow. He aimed at the deers. He was following the deers carefully. He waited for a suitable oppurtunity. When a suitable time came, he shot at the deers, without any delay. The arrow pierced the body of the deer. The wounded deer is here. Search it, without any delay."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Sage NARADA concluded the story and asked PRAACHEENA PARHICIS to search for the deer, in his place. On hearing those words, PARHICIS was astonished. He searched for the deer in all directions. His eyes rolled on from one end to another in search of the deer. He never saw any deer in the park.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;He asked sage NARADA, where is the deer?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;To this, sage NARADA replied, " YOU ARE THE DEER". PRAACHEENA PARHICIS requested sage NARADA to explain the meaning of the story, in detail. Sage NARADA explained the meaning of the story as follows. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;" You represent the male deer. Your wife represent the female deer. The pair of deers were enjoying their life happily in the park. The couple enjoys a happy married life, as the deers. The years rolls on quickly. People remain unaware of the rolling days. The time chases each and every one. The CHASING TIME  is represented as dhole.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;(dhole is a kind of wolf with body in red colour and tail in black colour. The colours red and black symbolically represents the raising sun in the morning and the enveloping cloud of dark in the night.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The raising sun snatches 12 hours from the life span of each and every one. The raising moon takes another 12 hours from the life span. The rolling days and nights snatch the life sapn of human beings. The time follow each and every body, unknowingly. The dhole was chasing the deer, silently. In the same way, passing days decrease the life span of each and every one silently. But, surprisingly people imagine their life to be immortal. Each passing day, makes a man to march towards his destiny, just like the marching deers in the story. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The suitable time is allocated for each and every one. When the time comes, the hunter makes no mistake in taking the life of human beings.  The hunter represents YAMA DHARMA RAJAN ( a celestial DEVA who snatches the life of each and every one as per the divine account). YAMA DHARMA RAJAN does his duty without any partiality. He never follow favouritism towards any body, in the matter of death. He remains neutral in his judjements as per the divine wish of BHAGAVAN. The hunter preys at the deer. His aim never fails. In the same way, as per the divine account, YAMA DHARMA RAJAN snatches the life, without any mistake.  The human life goes like this. This is the meaning behind the story."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Our life moves fast. We are living in a fast world. In the same way, the rolling days also moves rapidly. We usually get carried away by unwanted worldly distractions. The distractions are seemingly powerful. They make us forget the entire world. During the hours of entertainment, the time moves fastly. The passing moments make us immobile and lethargic. We delight our self fully during the hours of entertainment. When our life is caried under the waves of worldly distractions, we forget our hidden divinity. Our meditation loses to worldly distractions. The hours that had gone will never come again. Let us be careful of utilizing it, to our own benefit. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Half of the life goes in sleep. During the growing years, we remain unaware of PUNYAM and PAPAM (Punyam - fruitful actions. Papam - futile actions). We remain unaware of righteousness  and evil things. Many golden years of life vanishes from our scene, unknowingly. While leading a family life, most of the time we spent it for our material benefits. There also we lose many golden years in our life. After a certain period of time, the diseases come in to paly. The sufferings caused by them make us depressed. The worries and sufferings take much of our life time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;During the old age, physical stamina gets drained out. We become weak in mind and body. The bodily actions gets restricted. Rest of the life goes in the dreamworld of worries and lost oppurtunities. Man leaves the world with unfulfilled wishes. The wishes in the form of mental cravings becomes a bridge to rebirth. This cycle of birth and death continues. Man gets trapped in the MAYA  of birth and death cycle. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;During the childhood, he spents most of his time in playing. During adolescence, he spents much of his time in sensual affairs of romance. During the old age, much of his time goes in the state of depression. Man should search for one more thing namely BHAGAVAN to attain salvation from this cycle of birth and death. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The ataining of BHAGAVAN pacifies the mental cravings. The divine nectar got through BHAKTHI pacifies all mental cravings and he remains a true embodiment of divine happines. He becomes one with BHAGAVAN, in this material world it self. He attains a supreme state of divine happiness, namely KAIVALYAM.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;( Kaivalyam - enjoying the divine happiness of MOKSHAM (liberation) prevailing in the divine abode of BHAGAVAN namely VAIKUNTAM, in this BHOOLOKAM (material world)  it self, without leaving the human body).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The human birth reaches the ultimate goal of MUKTHI (liberation) through BHAKTHI (devotion). Devotion brings in liberation. In the story, sage NARADA came to the place of PRACHETHA'S as a SATHGURU. His preachings as a SATHGURU guided them to salvation. Following the principles of SATHGURU, the PRACHETHA'S did unswerved devotion. The pure devotion devoid of selfishness made their life, a blissful one. They reached the divine abode of BHAGAVAN after leaving their material body in this world. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We are fortune to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Our Guruji Amma constantly preaches about the glory of time. Let us accept the preachings of our SATHGURU and lead a divine filled life. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU lead us to salvation from the cycle of birth and death. Let the divine nectar of KRISHNA BHAKTHI through RADHEKRISHNA NAMA JAPAM, purify our heart.  Let the glory of SATHSANGAM and SATHGURU be spread always. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;JAI SHRE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...

The beautiful skin covers the body. It gives good shape and colour to the body. This body is mortal. The soul residing in this body remains immortal. The soul remains unaffected by worldly things. All the beauty is embodied in the soul. The divine experience of realizing the glory of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, residing in each and every one is of ultimate happiness to each and every one in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The divine beauty of BHAGAVAN is super - natural. It is out of scope of sensual reasoning. It cannot be understood by material experiences. At the sight of HIM (KRISHNA BHAGAVAN), one's mind gets purified. The sins are washed away by the divine nectar of KRISHNA BHAKTHI. This human birth is the opening gateway to MUKTHI (liberation). By taking a human birth, one can easily attain the divine qualities of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN through SATHSANGAM. This divine happiness cuts the sentimental binding and makes him free from all dangers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One should not listen to the advices of evil - minded people. One should never take comfort at the wrong notions of life. There are 6 evil qualities which destroy the divinity of a human being. The six qualities are i) greediness ii) anger iii) craving iv) selfishness v) ego and vi) hatred.&lt;br /&gt;These qualities lead a man to ruin. Even the wise people also gets distracted by these evil qualities. They distract the mind from divinity. One should safe guard his mind from these six enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind always imagines about each and every thing. An object of unknown origin gives no kind of distraction to the mind. If only the mind can make some amount of interpretations about that object, then only the power of intuition paves way for invention. If nothing could be imagined about that object, then automatically the mental activity cease. The mind leaves the object of study and search for a new thing to continue it's work.  In the same way, the words which were not heard before remains a puzzle. The mind cannot make further progress towards those words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I heard about the sensual pleasures of DEVALOKAM. Earlier, I never experienced that kind of pleasure. So, in the beginning, out of curiosity, my mind started imagining about the sensual pleasures. Without having any prior knowledge, my mind distracted me in all directions and lead me to a path of ruin. I should have imagined about the divine glory of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. The divine glory of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is abundant. One can enjoy the divine happiness to his full of heart, through SATHSANGAM. This divine happiness is immortal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This divine happiness saves the man from six evil qualities. KRISHNA BHAKTHI makes a man humble. He accepts BHAGAVAN to be his master. Ego vanishes at the sight of SATHGURU. By listening to the divine qualities of BHAGAVAN through SATHSANGAM, he loses himself completely in the divinity of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. The evil qualities namely ego, selfishness goes out unknowingly, from his mind. By listening to SATHSANGAM, he / she develops a strong desire towards achieving MUKTHI (liberation) from worldly sentimental bindings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind craves for a divine thirst of achieving union with KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. This divine thirst modifies the life of a devotee. The evil quality in the form of worldly cravings transform into a divine thirst, which longs for the cool shower of KRISHNA BHAKTHI. The devotee does constant meditation of the divine leela's of BHAGAVAN. His mind gets fully occupied with the gestures, actions, bravery, mercy, magnanimity, simplicity and other divine qualities of BHAGAVAN. He see the divine form of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN  in each and every one. This universal vision removes the sense of hatred from one's mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The devotee seeks favours from BHAGAVAN. He does prayer continously. He go by the words of SATHGURU and does constant meditation of NAMA JAPAM. This meditation brings him a sense of contentment. He enjoys a sense of true happiness for the favours received from BHAGAVAN. This self - contentment removes the evil quality in the form of greediness. The divine love achieved through KRISHNA BHAKTHI makes his heart filled with full of sympathy devoid of cruelty. The divine love spreads from him to the fellowmen unknowingly. This divine love replaces the evil quality namely anger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus by listening to SATHSANGAM and through the company of holy people (SADHU), one can easily liberate his mind from evil qualities. The six evil qualities gets replaced by six noble qualities. Greediness gets annulled by self - contentment. Anger gets annihilated by universal divine love. Craving transforms to divine thirst of KRISHNA BHAKTHI. Selfishness modifies to PREMAI ( CARING FOR THE COMFORT OF BHAGAVAN).  Ego is removed through DHASYAM ( accepting BHAGAVAN to be the master). Hatred gets removed by steadfastness in the path of BHAKTHI through universal vision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company of SADHU (holy people) namely SATHSANGAM  save the drowning man in the ocean of life (SANSARA SAGARAM). Earlier, I was praying for you fervently at the feet of DEVA'S. Being left with no other option, they granted me the boon which I asked. But, during the second time, my mind was clear. My mind was cleansed by their divine powers. The divine light shed by them lead me from darkness to light. I worshiped the DEVA'S faithfully. They granted me divine powers. Through the power of it, I was able to see you in DEVALOKAM. They played the role of divine masters (sathguru). Their blessings gave me the inner strength and knowledge to overcome the MAYA (illusion).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They brought back the hidden divinity in me. So, this time, I don't have any oscilations or cravings for you. I am very firm in my principles of divinity. One should not listen to the flatulent words describing the luxuries of DEVALOKAM. One can take lessons from my life. I want to leave your place. I am leaving now", he said. Having spoken these words, PURURAVAS left the OORVASI LOKAM and came to earth (BHOOLOKAM). The earth is the ideal place for divine worship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the earth, one can search for SATHGURU in human form. One can seek the blessings of SATHGURU without fail. The earth namely BHOOMADEVI (divine mother) has so much patience and perseverance to accept each one of us. By taking a birth in this earth, one should search for a SATHGURU, at the earliest. Having attained a SATHGURU, one should seek the blessings of SATHGURU to attain MUKTHI (liberation).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PURURAVAS became self - reliant. He never cared for any body. He forsaked every thing. The evil qualities vanished from his mind. He became a humble devotee to BHAGAVAN. He roamed to different places and spread the divine harmony to one and all in the world. He attained&lt;br /&gt;MUKTHI (liberation) from worldly sentimental bindings.                  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KRISHNA BHAGAVAN  narrates the glory of SATHSANGAM  through this ILA GEETHAM as follows.&lt;br /&gt;" The human life is of utmost value. The divine worship of BHAGAVAN in the form of BHAKTHI can be done faithfully in the human form. By reaching a SATHGURU and through their blesings, one can definitely attain liberation (MUKTHI) from worldly bindings. The preachings coming from SATHGURU takes the disciplles from the path of darkness to light. Without divine knowledge, the mind enters in to the dark world of ignorance. The SATHGURU preaches the glory of BHAGAVAN. SATHGURU nourishes BHAKTHI in the heart of disciple. This BHAKTHI leads them to the path of light. Under the divine light, the disciple realizes the true nature of worldly objects. This true knowledge brings in the wisdom, in one's mind.  This wisdom leads their life from sorrow to happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People of high wisdom should forsake the company of evil people. The company of evil people corrupts the mind and lead to illusion. One should always search for a SATHGURU. The company of holy people (SADHU) namely SATHSANGAM  is the best shelter for every one. The holy people (SADHU) constantly preaches about ME (BHAGAVAN). The SATHGURU  through constant vigorous meditation attains the divine qualities of ME (BHAGAVAN). They preach the hidden meaning behind scriptures, in true form. Through the true divine knowledge of it, one can easily liberate his mind from binding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SATHGURU remains selfless and Ego 'less.  They constantly meditate  on the divine glory of ME. They remain calm. They are humble enough to accept each and every one, irrespective of the worldly discriminations in the form of age, sex, education, qualities and other worldly attributes. The SATHGURU bears the insults of the world. They nourish the KRISHNA BHAKTHI in the heart's of disciples, ignoring the insults caused by the world. The KRISHNA BHAKTHI makes the disciple's life a happier one. The disciple enjoys the worldly acceptance in the form of name, fame etc., The SATHGURU'S heart is so big to accept the success of the disciples. They does the selfless service of showering the nectar of KRISHNA BHAKTHI to one and all in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One should be fortunate to attain a SATHGURU, at the earliest in his life. The SATHGURU narrates the glory of BHAGAVAN (ME) in the form of stories. The disciple listens to it carefully. By listening to the stories, one's mind gets automatically attracted towards divinity. The attraction towards divinity creates a sense of divine thirst for BHAGAVAN. This divine thirst brings in a state of 'unswerved meditation' towards BHAGAVAN. Through constant meditation of NAMA JAPAM as given by SATHGURU, one can easily lead a happy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The comapny of SADHU (SATHSANGAM) removes the fear of life. It burns the darkness of ignorance. It cuts the sentimental bindings in the form of worldly distractions. In the mighty ocean of life, the SATHSANGAM is the life boat to save one's life. The SATHGURU protects the world from evil qualities through NAMA JAPAM and make this world a blissful one. They are so dearer to each and every one, just as the soul which is inseperable from the body during the life voyage. When the soul goes out of a body, he / she becomes dead. In the same way, the absence of the blessings of SATHGURU, makes the disciple's life, a dead one (devoid of KRISHNA BHAKTHI).  The SATHGURU open the internal eye of wisdom and through the power of it, one can see ME  in true form. The SATHGURU who shows the true path of BHAKTHI is equivalent to ME (KRISHNA BHAGAVAN) it self.

The divine light shed by DEVA'S gave him true divine knowledge. When he felt the divine light in his body, he regained the originality. The hidden knowledge came out. He regained his true form of divinity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PURURAVAS went around several places. He roamed all along different places of the world. One time, he came to a place called KURU KSHETHRAM. There he met a GANDHARVA (a celestial DEVA, who is good at music). He asked for the blessings of the GANDHARVA. The GANDHARVA blessed him with a divine fire and asked him to perform a great YAGNA. PURURAVAS invoked the blessings of DEVA'S through that YAGNA (a divine sacrifice). The DEVA'S felt happy at the devotion of PURURAVAS. They blessed him with divine powers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Through the power of it, HE went to the place of OORVASI, namely OORVASI LOKAM, in the outer space. But, this time HIS mind was pure. He was very firm on his principles of devotion. His mind was calm without any oscilliation, at the sight of OORVASI. He felt very bad for the loss of years in his life, under the trap of OORVASI. During earlier years, he even forsaked the righteous duties, for the want of her. On regaining his wisdom, he felt very bad about his past life. He started narrating the evil consequences of poisoned mind, in detail to OORVASI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He started saying to OORVASI,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" For the want of you, I swerved from the righteous path of DHARMAM as a king. I became unaware of rolling years, forsaking every thing, except you. I forsaked my royal duties. I kept myself confined within you. I was under the trap of you. Now, I felt guilty of my past life. I was a great warrior and a man of high wisdom too. I was ruling all the worlds under one sceptre. It seems to be a wonder that how come I got trapped in the net spread by you ? I am really wondering now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was like a playing doll in the hand of a woman. I was dancing as per your tune. I never had any reasoning to come out of your demand. I kept myself confined within the four walls of palace, keeping in mind about the condition laid by you always. We are all dolls in the hands of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. I behaved like a doll in your hand. When I was obeying your orders, had I ever questioned my self that, why can't I obey the orders of my soul ? I should have done that at the earliest. But, I never did so. Now, I felt ashamed of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was chasing you like a mad. You left me withou any grace. You ignored me like a useless grass of little value. But, I was running after you, all along. How stupid I was during that time ? I had big titles, huge army, mighty welath, high wisdom and all necessary good qualities of a man. But then all my good qualities vanished in no minutes of time. I was having all riches. But, I behaved like a beggar (penniless pauper )  begging at the feet of you. I should  be ashamed of my act. How silly, I was during that time ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mastered many arts through constant practice and of unswerved meditation. I lead a poise disciplined life as a king. I attained a unique place among the kings. I did all my royal duties selflessly and attained divine powers through it. I was observing true silence as per VEDIC  NORMS and controlled my emotions. I was following vigorous TAPA'S (meditaion) and achieved divine qualities through it. I controlled my senses and emotions. By virtue of it, I achieved mastery over other emperors. I ruled all the worlds under one sceptre. Even after all these severe practices, my mind was attracted towards you. I lost my self in you. I had forgotten my true individuality, at the sight of you. Being the ruler of the world, I should have behaved righteously. But, I did in the other way. I never bothered to care my citizens. Now, after realizing my fault, I felt ashamed of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was carried away by the strong wind of ' immoral  sensual pleasure ' just like a useless mud, which was carried by strong wind. I was enjoying carnal pleasures with you. Just like ' adding fuel to the fire ',  the passing years provoked my carnal desires vigorously. I was blessed by DEVA'S. Their blessings helped me to enjoy the celestial happiness of being with you, in the DEVALOKAM. I was enjoying the luxuries and comforts of DEVALOKAM for many years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even after several years, the luxuries never gave me true happiness. Instead, they provoked my cravings still more. I should have searched for true happiness coming from BHAGAVAN. I misplaced my affection in you, than to BHAGAVAN. I should have shown my true love on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. I lost many years in my life, spending luxuriously. Now, I wish to meditate fully on to BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One should control his senses. The mind should not go in the directions of senses. Mind should not obey the directions of senses. The senses wander always. They search for happiness from every thing. If the mind goes as per the directions of senses, surely he will get distracted just like a vanishing cloud. His life will fade away just like a vanishing cloud.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind control is the prime requirement for leading a peaceful life. The mental emotions are seemingly surprising.  The behaviour of mind is multi - faceted. It is highly radiant as a sun. It has tremendous powers as that of life giving air. This mind alone is the root cause for all the sufferings of life. The mind should be focussed whole - heartedly towards divinity. I was reminded by you, time and again about the uncertainity of DEVALOKAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cannot blame you for my past life. I had chosen a wrong path. The path lead me to a world of total darkness, devoid of worldly attires. I forgotten the entire world at the door step of yours. It was my fault. Now, I realized my mistake. A man shoul always distinguish between good and evil through the reasoning power. I was admiring your beauty at that time. Had I ever asked this question to my self ? I am admiring the beauty of OORVASI. Then how about admiring the beauty of primordial source of creation, namely KRISHNA BHAGAVAN ? BHAGAVAN is the primordial source of all creation. The entire beauty of mankind is fully absorbed in him. From him alone, the beauty takes the form of ' beautiful things ' in worldly context. Without his divine grace, every thing will seem ugly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our own body is a living example for this. This body is made up of blood, nerves, fat, muscles, skin etc., Huge number of germs are living within our body. The waste products produced in the body are dumped in the abdomen. Man carries with him, ugly unwanted waste materials all along his life, kept inside the body covered by beautiful skin outside. The skin covers the ugly unwanted waste materials and gives a beautiful shape to the body. We admire the beauty of external skin. Even the beauty pageant of entire world is of no exception to this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The  life journey begins in the mother's womb. It resides in the temporary abode for 10 months. It leaves the temporary abode and come to the external world in the form of a baby. The baby cannot remain all along his life, in the mother's womb. The bondage in the form of mother's womb breaks after 10 months. The baby nourishes through the food. The growth of a baby is determined by the nourishment provided through the food. For the physical and mental growth, the body is dependant over food. After attaining a certain age, man toils a lot to make a living.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He makes an adventurous voyage in search of food. He inculcates suitable work habits to achieve  mastery over food. The mankind splits in the form of servant and master. The person who dictates and pays for the work becomes a master. The person who receives money and  obeys the orders of the other man , becomes a servant. Money plays a vital role in the development of civilization. The servant receives money in proportion to the quality of work rendered by him, through his master. Money plays a role in life. But, money alone will not give all comforts in life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mankind wishes to increase the population of it's race.  A sacred relationship in the form of ' marriage ' binds two unknown people together. This relationship paves way for new offspring in the form of children. The couples enjoy carnal pleasures and give birth to children. But, life doesn't stop over there. The same cycle continues in the new phase. In the beginning, the child is dependant over his mother. As years passes on, food forms the basic supplement for the nourishment of life. Later money plays a vital role in acquring the food through hard labour. During that time, man becomes dependant over money. Man depends on his counter - part to give birth his successive generation. After certain period of time, he / she becomes old. They are taken care by their children. At that time, they are dependant on their children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man makes social realtionship in the society, in the form of friends and neighbours. At some specific instances, he / she takes shelter at the co-operation extended from the helping hands in the form of friends and neighbours. At times, he / she ignore them and remain firm in keeping privacy of their family problems. So, at each and every stage, the dependancy fluctuates from one man to another. It oscillates here and there. At no instance, man can be certain about his / her destiny. It all changes like a trum card. No one is solely dependant over another man, all through his / her life. The dependancy varies from context to context.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the passage of life force, the body becomes dead. This body is burnt in fire or burried in the soil. If it is burnt, only the ashes remains. If it is burried in th soil, small germs consume it, as food. Even animals like dog, eagle take this dead body as food. Thus it forms a cycle. The dead body forms a part of nutrition for the animals. This cycle goes on and on. Thus the dependancy oscillates from animal kingdom to mankind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This life cycle never waits for any one. From the beginning till the end, this life play goes smoothly without any pause. Our mind alone produces external ramifications to life and makes the life full of sorrow and depression. The external ramifications are multi - dimensional. They can take infinite number of possibilities, depending upon the mind set, at that specific time. The mind should be tamed. One should never allow his mind to wander in all  worldly things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I allowed my mind to wander for celestial sensual pleasures. I received the return of it, very badly in my life. I lost many golden years in my life. All my glory, magnanimity, supremacy, wisdom, diplomatic etiquette, social etiquette etc., had gone, for the want of you. Now, I understood the dire consequences of immoral attitudes. Now, I got relieved from it. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PURURAVAS also narrated the glory of SATHSANGAM  ( company  of SADHU )  to  OORVASI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you want to know about it ? Wait till the next issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Till such time, let us all do continous chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHRI SHRI AMMA, bring us towards divinity. Let our mind be filled with the true joy of NAMA JAPAM. Let the glory of SATHSNAGAM and SATHGURU  be spread always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHE KRISHNA SATH SANG KI JAY !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHE KRISHNA...

He was a mighty emperor, whose power was spread throughout the world. He controlled all the nations in the world, by his undefeatable command of power and authority. He enjoyed his life as a mighty emperor with all royal luxuries. Every success looks for enjoyment. During that time only, we have to seek the help of Bhagavan Radhekrishna through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, This chanting will save us from distraction. But for this, we need a sathguru who can guide us to that motive. But not, everyone is bestowed to get a Sathguru. The emperor, PURURAVAS was carried away by unwanted distraction. Having enjoyed worldly royal luxuries, he now sought for something of higher pleasures. He thought of celestial pleasures as enjoyed by royal celestial incarnations, namely Devalokam. (I.e. the abode of Deva’s). He wanted to enjoy the marital happiness with divine celestial prostitute, namely OORVASI performed a big yagna (Sacrifice) and through the power of it, He wanted to acquire the possession of Oorvasi, as an enjoying object. When our mind gets poisoned, we think other as just dolls in our hand and want to enjoy them as we wish to be. We should always remember the return, which we will get in future, for the sin that is performed. But, not by our intellect reasoning, wisdom, knowledge and perception we can devoid yourself from this Maya or illusion. Only by the company with sadhu’s (divine holy people), through sathsangam, we can save our life from unwanted distractions of undue means, which can ruin our life.&lt;br /&gt;Under the control of mighty fate, the emperor, PURURAVAS started imagining about the beauty of that divine celestial girl, namely oorvasi. His mind was fully absorbed in her. He forgets his duties. His mind become detached from righteous path. He prayed in full, to get the happiness from her namely oorvasi then later a time came for his happiness to come in true form. Oorvasi came to the place of pururavas. Pururavas started protecting that lamb with utmost sincerity and love. He started enjoying the happiness with her. Oorvasi, made another condition that she should not see the body of pururavas in light. For the want of her, even though he was a mighty emperor with vast knowledge wisdom and who rules the entire world under his one scepter, he started accepting whatever she says. For the want of her, he started accepting whatever she says. For the want of her he started to detach himself from his duties as a king and also from performing and protecting yagna’s (sacrifices performed for the welfare of mankind), as a ruler and protector. Every thing gone, expect the sensual pleasures which he enjoyed with her. Being a celestial prostitute, as a matter of profession, she started giving the happiness as he wanted. But one thing that escaped from everyone’s sight is the mighty rival, which attacked each and everybody, namely TIME. The time waits for none. Days and Nights rolled on. He never enjoyed the warmth of bright morning sun or the cool shower of charming moon. He kept himself confined within the four walls of emperor’s palace. He became like a mighty lion get trapped in a case of gold, which is kept bounded always He was bounded by the unwanted pleasures, which he imagined it to be of celestial sensual pleasures. He started enjoying the life, as he wished. Many years rolled. Many Years rolled just as a fraction of second. When our mind is occupied with unwanted undue pleasures of sensual things, as inspired by the company of bad peoples, time rolled just as a fraction of second when our mind is occupied with unwanted undue pleasures of sensual things as inspired by the company of bad peoples, time rolled down as fraction of second, without our knowledge. The time is precious Let us not waste it. By the inspiration drawn from unwanted thins. The condition laid by her, was always mighty emperor, namely PURURAVAS. The celestial deva’s also got envy, at the sight of PURURAVAS and oorvasi. They made a trick to take back oorvasi to their abode namely Devalokam. Some deva’s appeared on the scene, and they grabbed the lamb. At that time, they were enjoying the happiness seeing the deva’s grabbing the lamb, without his control; out of passion PURURAVAS came out of bed to protect the lamb. At once, the deva’s showered a divine light on to the PURURAVAS under the light of it. She could sea the body of him. Both the conditions laid by her was broken namely 1) lamb was not protected 2) the body of PURURAVAS was seen in light(here divine light shed by deva’s and not ordinary human source, because this divine light is going to give mukthi to PURURAVAS So, as per the agreement, the term was over. The celestial happiness enjoyed in Devalokam is not permanent. They are temporary once the divine account is expired they have to go to the lower worlds of mixed happiness and sorrow’s. So our mind should not be overwhelmed by these flatulent words (empty words) Here PURURAVAS was much concerned about the loss of oorvasi he begged at her not to leave him alone. But she left him, without any grace. She left him alone PURURAVAS became mad after her. But by the divine light shed by deva’s , he was in a way saved the Deva’s done a good thing to PURURAVAS but everyone will be scolding at them as wicked and cruel people, who get envy about other achieving their position Actually the disturbance created by deva’s are only the stepping stones which can elevate us to a higher spiritual levels By stepping into that we can keep yourself away from the downfall of entering into devalokam of temporary sensual pleasures and then repenting with mind full of sorrows and sadness here PURURAVAS was saved he now got back his forgotten wisdom. He regained its originality a precious diamond stone was dumped and covered by unwanted waste materials the waste materials covered, the entire diamond. Now diamond when seen from outside resembles just like a useless dirty one and untouchable too. But a knowledgeable man of high wisdom (Sathguru) can cleanse this dense coating of unwanted layers of useless untouchable materials when all the unwanted dirty coatings and layers are removed the diamond regains its original color and character. And it glitters with true colors the sathguru sees the hidden diamond, in each and everyone. Through the divine grace of Bhagavan radhekrishna with the Radhekrishna namam and Sathsangam (preaching of divine leela’s of Bhagavan Krishna) as a cleaning material, the sathguru remove the unwanted dirty things from our mind through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, and accepting yourself as a dirty diamond in the divine hands of sathguru and allowing them to cleanse us, we can also attain true state of diamond with glittering true colors of divine Krishna bhakthi&lt;br /&gt;Krishna Bahaman says, “The fire, when approached removes the shivering, darkness and fear. In the same way the company of sadhu’s through sathsangam and seeking the blessings of sathguru one can keep himself pure The sathguru’s grace will remove the (1) fear of life (2) Ignorance (3) bindings of undue and unwanted actions leading to ruin The refuge for the drowning people, in this mighty ocean of life cycle is sathguru and sathsangam only. For living things food is the source for the depressed people Krishna Bahaman is the only refuge. After this life, only the knowledge gained by good things and actions namely Dharmam is the only treasure which they carry with them. In the some way for the people who get annoyed filled with full of fear and terror the sathsangam (divine company of sathguru and their preaching) is the only refuse or ultimate shelter. Which can protect from danger and give peace and happiness? The external sun gives light to our eyes, in the external world only the sathguru keeps our eye open internally too, to see and feel the divine grace of bhagavan. The sathguru and the company of them, namely sathsangam can be the only true relationship for everyone for ever. Sathguru is our true relative true friend true boon giving deva’s and they are so dearer to us just like the soul which is inseparable from us. The sathguru who lead you towards mufti liberation from all bindings can is equivalent to me itself. (Bhagavan Krishna himself)&lt;br /&gt;Let us surrender ourselves on to the divine feet of our Sathguru Poojya Shri Shri Amma and make our life a worth living by the divine grace of Bhagavan Radhekrishna through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam. Let the glory of Sathsangam and sathguru spread always at all times our Guruji Amma is here to cleanse us. Let us admit yourself to our Guruji Amma.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112921857052254073?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112921857052254073/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112921857052254073' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112921857052254073'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112921857052254073'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/10/ila-geetham-oorvasi-katha.html' title='ILA GEETHAM - OORVASI KATHA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112791028570669576</id><published>2005-09-28T21:20:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-09-28T21:24:45.716+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM - JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#330033;"&gt;The duality in the form of pleasure, sorrow alternate from time to time. We enjoy pleasure or sorrow with the help of our mind. When some one experiences depression, his / her mind searches for pleasure. The mind craves for seeing beautiful things through the eyes. The mind search for kind words coming from near and dear, through the ears. Mind gets pacify, on enjoying the sweet fragrance coming from flowers or breeze through the nostrils. Mind craves for sweet delicious items and wants to enjoy things through the tongue. Mind wants to touch beautiful soft things and enjoy the pleasure coming out of it, through the skin. These 5 things namely eye, ear, nose, tongue, skin were termed as INDRIYA’s (SENSE ORGANS). During the sad period, one’s mind search for pleasure through these sense organs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In search of pleasure, mind creates a sense of affection and commitment on to the worldly objects. He / she want to enjoy the total pleasure coming from the worldly things, without any loss. This creates self – centric feelings in one’s mind leading to possessiveness.  This attitude grows over time and attains the state of HOMESICKNESS. They take utmost care to protect the well – being of those around them. This state of over – consciousness make them anxious and nervous. They want to extend a helping hand to the people associated with them and the mind starts wandering in all directions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the beginning, a ship travels smoothly in a sea. When strong winds blow in all directions, the ship gets distracted in all directions. The captain and the associated people, try to rescue the ship. In the same way, the life ship gets distracted in all directions under the mighty wave of strong wishes. Man toils a lot to rescue the life ship. He puts in hard efforts to rescue his / her life. We take efforts to save the ship. But, we don’t know the ways and means to stop the wind. In the same way, all the human endeavors were focused towards saving the life of people from upcoming danger. We pay deaf ear to the words of SATHGURU, in preserving our self from the strong wind of wishes.  Man looks for enjoyment. All the inventions of mankind were aimed at improving the joy of human life. But, unfortunately many of the inventions have turned to be dangerous weapons against human race.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human efforts gave a partial relief to the problems of the society. But, the problem takes a new form in some other place. Man keeps on finding solution to the upcoming problem; but does a little towards ward off the root cause.  When one problem gets solved, the other creeps out. This cycle of cat – rat race continues. The cycle of human actions bind us unknowingly. We confine our self to the conventions of the world. In this entire life struggle, the soul residing in the body remains a witness. The mind alone brings numerous problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The control of mind is called as YOGA. There are many ways to achieve it. Some of them are; Philanthropic activities, performing divine routine’s, leading a disciplined life, learning scriptures from the words of SATHGURU, following the principles of divine doctrines, observing fasting etc., These ways appear to be different, but the aim of all these practices is to attain mind control during the period of distress. All these practices need to bring MIND CONTROL, without fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the mind calms down, the body and the sense organs attain a state of true happiness. When the mind gets surrendered on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN, the body experiences a divine joy, devoid of sorrow. This joy spreads around the entire world. Man need to work tirelessly and save money in right ways. He / she had to spend that money in philanthropic activities, under the guidelines of SATHGURU. This will bring true happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind is all – powerful. It is the root cause for the enveloping illusion in the form of MAYA. The mind separates us from BHAGAVAN and distracts us in worldly things. It acts as a barrier. We have to cross it, through the divine mercy of BHAGAVAN. The soul residing in the body brings true joy. The mind distracts us in worldly things and brings sorrow. We should hear to the words of the soul; not to the distracting mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the mind gets fully occupied with the divine thoughts of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, the body enjoys the inflow of divine power. This divine power prepares the mind to face the struggles easily. Through the divine power, one can taste the nectar of success in all his / her endeavors. The continuous chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, as given by our SATHGURU – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, keep us motivated at all times. This motivation got from the divine joy gives us enough power to cross the struggles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The divine mercy of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is abundant. One should free his / her mind from the distractions, to enjoy it fully. Our mind alone creates friend and foe. We take few people to be our friends and some other to be enemies. By surrendering our self totally on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, we can cross the cage made of rivalry and intimacy. The divine mercy of BHAGAVAN will change our enemies to friends and we can lead a happy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our mind analyzes the qualities, conduct and character of those around us. We categorize people to be either good or bad, based on our mental calculations. We behave accordingly, as the situation warrants. Some time we bite our tongue with the teeth. At this instant, to whom we can show our anger?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The celestial Deva’s have divine power. They control the bodily actions. But, one cannot blame the Deva’s for the sufferings of life, because they are indifferent to the results arising out of bodily actions. Due to bodily impairments, at times one organ gets affected by the other. At such instant, to whom we can vest our anger?&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;br /&gt; One cannot even blame the soul for the sufferings of the life, as the soul is under the control of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. We are just dolls in the hands of BHAGAVAN. If we dance as per the divine wish of BHAGAVAN, we will be happy always. Our mind can transcend from the state of sorrow to the state of true happiness through the KRISHNA BHAKTHI.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One cannot blame the planetary motions for the sufferings of life. The planetary motions prevail from time immemorial and will be ever – lasting too. One should focus his / her mind in divine things to come out of the evil effects of planetary motions. The planetary motions come and go. Day, night, summer, winter, autumn and all other periods of time move randomly, non – stop. They are temporary. One can overcome the difficulties arising out of them, through the constant chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The actions determine the results, leading to the duality of pleasure and sorrow alternately in one’s life. The soul remains unaffected, by these external ramifications.&lt;br /&gt;KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is the embodiment of true knowledge. HE can perform all kind of worldly jobs, in absolute dexterity. HE is all – powerful. HE has nothing left over to perform in all the worlds. So, HE has no binding towards worldly actions. HE has no desire for the fruits of the worldly actions. HE does worldly actions selflessly without any anticipation. HE constantly works towards the uplift of mankind to a higher state of divine happiness. By following the divine principles of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN through the guidelines of SATHGURU, one can easily liberate his / her mind from the MAYA (ILLUSION).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every action has a divine meaning hidden in it. We have to take lessons from it and implement them in the near future. By doing of this, one can regain the losses of earlier life and lead a happy life, in the future. So, one cannot blame the worldly actions for the sufferings of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One cannot blame the ‘time’ for the sufferings of life. The time waits for none. The time neither stands enjoying pleasure events nor weeps over sad events. It keeps on rolling. Each day has 24 hours only. It neither increases nor decreases. The mind alone determines the good or bad period, in one’s life. The time does not increase to 25 hours in a day, during the fortune period in one’s life. It does not decrease to 23 hours in a day, during the worse period in one’s life. It keeps on moving. So, time takes no responsibility over the sufferings of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Through the mind alone, the bodily organs enjoy pleasure / sorrow. The severity of sufferings felt in the mind, proportionately affects the bodily parts. The mental sufferings impair the bodily parts. The body starts degrading as time passes on. When the entire body gets bio – degradable, there comes the stage of death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The life struggle is a drama, enacted in the world stage. We are all actors. We came here to act in our respective role in the drama. In this drama, the divine control of BHAGAVAN acts as the performance in the stage. Our body is the doll. The divine thread running across the body resembles the SOUL. The thread is kept in the hands of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When our mind crosses the illusion of I ‘ness and my ‘ness, we become one with BHAGAVAN. Devotion is nothing but unconditional surrender to God. When we surrender our self totally, we can feel the divine power of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, flowing in us. This divine power is all – powerful. With this divine power, we can cross any obstacle in life. We shall be proud to take ‘REFUGE’ in the kingdom of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, at the earliest. The control of mind through the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM brings in us a state of one – ness with BHAGAVAN. This path of transcending the distracting mind from duality to one – ness, through the control of mind is called as YOGA. Through this YOGA, one can cross the sufferings of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHIKSHU (SAINT) narrated the ways and means to achieve mastery over the mind. He narrated these ways in a hymn form and sang those lines loudly. This song was called as “BHIKSHU GEETHAM” in SRIMATH BHAGAVATHAM, vide 11 -23. (11TH&lt;br /&gt;SKANDHAM, 23RD ADHYAYAM).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KRISHNA BHAGAVAN had taught this BHIKSHU GEETHAM to UDHAVAR. Bhikshu had lost all his money. He took austerity. Many people tortured him. He remained unaffected by those sufferings. He kept control over his mind. He crossed the evil qualities in the form of laziness, dejection through the constant meditation of BHAGAVAN. The mind creates a false image in the form of sad / pleasure. One should never be carried away, by it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dear UDHAVA, “Fully devote you mind on to me. Let your intellect be on the right track of KRISHNA BHAKTHI. With true dedication, surrender your mind totally on to me. On total surrender of your mind on to me, you will cross the duality and attain one –ness with me. You will take sole refuge on my divine grace and you can feel totally immersed in me. You can enter in to the higher state of liberation –MUKTHI, in the form of SAYUJYAM (becoming one with KRISHNA BHAGAVAN). By following this path of TOTAL SURRENDER – SARANAGATHI, you can attain SAYUJYA MUKTHI (becoming one with KRISHNA BHAGAVAN), without fail. Take total trust on me. This is the crisp of YOGA.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHIKSHU GEETHAM REMAINS sacred and cleanses the sin of mankind. The people who listen to this BHIKSHU GEETHAM, crosses the dire delusion. The people who preaches this BHIKSHU GEETHAM, comes out of the MAYA in the form of duality. On listening to this BHIKSHU GEETHAM, one’s mind gets fully devoted to the divine mercy of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. It liberates the mind from worldly things. It fixes the mind on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The divine grace of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is abundant. We are fortune to have our SATHGURU – POOJYA SHREE SHREE SHREE AMMA, in our presence. Let us surrender our mind on to the lotus feet of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN through the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, as given by our SATHGURU – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA. Let the chanting bring in us the ‘MIND CONTROL’ to enjoy the divine grace of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN and the divine blessings of our SATHGURU.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112791028570669576?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112791028570669576/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112791028570669576' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112791028570669576'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112791028570669576'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/09/bhikshu-geetham-jay-shree-poojya-shree_28.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM - JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112658532730195302</id><published>2005-09-13T13:21:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-09-13T13:22:07.306+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM - JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>The BHIKSHU left his home. Keeping his mind calm, he went for BHIKSHA (begging done for divine cause) in the streets. He moved from place to place. At the sight of him, many people started insulting him, by means of their words and actions. Many people teased him. The BHIKSHU attained beatific state of pure silence. He was not disturbed by these insults. BHIKSHU was carrying a small vessel to have the food. He carried with him some old clothes for wearing. He kept with him, some ritual things for performing the religious routines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people snatched his belongings. Some threatened him to leave from the place, as early as possible. Some people laughed at him. Some people snatched his belongings and made a fun play with him for some interval of time. After some time, they asked him to take back his belongings. Some people even spitted at him. Some people called him as thief and they forced him to change his life style. Some people tied him with rope, as a punishment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people started saying, “This man seems to be a hypocrite. He had lost all his money. His relatives left him alone. He doesn’t have any body, to look after his life. So, he started to cheat people through immoral means. He seems to be much stubborn, in his mind set, just like a rock. He keeps himself mouth shut. He easily extracts food, clothes from us, without any hard efforts, under the shelter of austerity. We should punish him for his sinful act.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHIKSHU remained unaffected by these words. He understood the reality of life. He understood the inner cruelty of worldly people. He kept his mind constantly meditating on the lotus feet of Bhagavan. This meditation gave him, inner joy. He felt fully nourished with this divine nectar of Krishna Bhakthi and a divine satisfaction was felt in his face. Having his mind satisfied with this divine Krishna Bhakthi, he felt self-content. The BHIKSHU started explaining the path of MAYA (illusion) in a nut-shell, as follows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cannot blame these people, for my sufferings. The mind alone is the root cause for the sufferings of life. Mind craves for each and every thing. The mind controls the sense organs. The cravings of the mind, forces a man to develop a sense of desire towards worldly things. This desire grows over time and becomes a permanent mind set. The mind gets fully occupied with that desire. The human beings fix a specific time period to achieve it. This specific time allocated by an individual to achieve his / her desire, becomes a goal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man starts working towards his goal. The mind controls the bodily organs and senses. With a fixed mind set, he toils a lot, to march towards his goal. The bodily actions take 3 different forms. When the task before him / her can be easily handled, he / she do that work in a calm manner. The work that is being done in a calm manner brings the mind to the SATVIC state (SATHVAM – CALMNESS). At times, the task before him / her seems to be heavy and the work needs to done in a hurry, without any delay. He / she become perplexed and tensed. Heart beats fast. Body shows rapid movements. This state of tensed mind is called as RAJAS (RAJASAM – TENSED MIND). At times, conflicting thoughts enter in to one’s mind. There, he / she get confused. He / she take a long time to arrive at the right solution. The time gets wasted. The actions get delayed. He / she postpone the work. He / she become sluggish and dull –headed. This state of confused mind is called as TAMAS (TAMASAM – CONFUSED MIND).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 3 states of mind namely SATVIC, RAJAS, TAMAS become the external qualities of human beings (GUNA). The 3 qualities alternate from time to time. The actions done in calm way brings best results (SATVIC). The actions done in a hurry, brings haphazard results (RAJAS). The delayed actions bring unexpected results (TAMAS). When the desires were achieved quickly, man enjoys pleasure out of it. When the desires were not fulfilled at the earliest, man becomes dejected and sad. The pleasure, sadness alternate from time to time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The human beings fix their mind on the materialistic people, who give external pleasure to them. They make a social relationship out of it. This common binding prevailing among people, keeps the life moving. Man considers the people around him / her to be near and dear to their lives. When that relationship becomes sacred as per the divine wish of Bhagavan, he / she consider those people to be their relatives. The sentimental binding becomes strong with the kith and kin (family relationship). He / she expect more from the family members.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This strong desire makes him / her to shower their love continuously, under the anticipation of getting more pleasure in return. This becomes a permanent binding (BANDHAM). The BANDHAM forces him / her, to work tirelessly for the uplift of their family members. These actions collectively brings in, a social uplift. People collectively work for mutual benefits and forms a society. The society collectively forms a nation and this chain of sentimental binding spreads throughout the entire world. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the human beings were trapped in this net of illusion. He / she feel proud at their success. This self – pride induces a desire to achieve mastery over the fellowmen. This brings in a state of superiority complex, in one’s mind (EGO). Here comes another form of MAYA (illusion). This forms the ever lasting MAYA of I’ ness and my’ ness and people suffer out of it. People toil a lot to come out of this MAYA. The mind alone forms the basic foundation stone, for this enveloping MAYA in the form of duality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The duality accounts for the eternal two’s in the form of good, bad, pleasure, sad, cold, heat, poor, rich etc., and it rolls on from time to time. The time acts as a best observer. It watches the human actions, without interfering with them. It suitably rewards the pleasure and sufferings to one and all in the world, in a detached way. Human life is short lived. One should not waste it, in undue means. The passing time should be utilized towards devotion. This devotion will save his / her life at the needed hours of upcoming danger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are fortune to have our SATHGURU – Poojya Shree Shree Amma, in our presence. Let our mind be detached from the worldly binding, through the NAMA JAPAM as given by our SATHGURU – Poojya Shree Shree Amma. Let the blessings of our SATHGURU make our life, a happier one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA… RADHEKRISHNA… RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                (TO CONTINUE…)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112658532730195302?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112658532730195302/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112658532730195302' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112658532730195302'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112658532730195302'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/09/bhikshu-geetham-jay-shree-poojya-shree_13.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM - JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112521986038948715</id><published>2005-08-28T18:00:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-08-28T18:04:20.396+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHIKSHU started narrating the evil consequences of achieving mastery over money by immoral means. The torture and mental agony undergone by any one, for the want of minting more money is unbearable. The sufferings undergone by them, is unexplainable. They have to skip their meals. They have to work tirelessly for hours together, forsaking their basic requirements in life, namely sound sleep, proper food, mental calmness, inner harmony, leading a happy life etc., A person should always find the ways and means to lead a happy life, through divine blessings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The money creates a split in the family relationship. Brothers and sisters get separated. Intimate friends turn to be near rivals, for the want of money. Parents in the family were left without any mercy, by their respective children. Close relatives quarrel with one another, for getting more share of money, in the hereditary family possessions. The money acts as a best partition, among people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People get deeply depressed, even at the loss of a very small amount of money. Even a small amount of money breaks the relationship. It creates quarrel, leading to fight among them. The poor and the deprived were driven out of the family. The money burns the sympathy and humanness in one’s heart. The heart of those people becomes dry. Their heart is devoid of sympathy and mercy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This human life is precious. The Deva’s, who live in their divine celestial abode (DEVALOKAM), are eagerly praying for a human birth in this BHOOLOKAM (earth). The human birth in the earth is far superior to any thing. One can easily attain liberation (MUKTHI), by taking a birth in this BHOOLOKAM (earth). One should search for a Sathguru, at the earliest. One should never waste his / her precious human life, in undue means. This human life is the opening gateway to MUKTHI (liberation). Having taken a birth in this earth, one should enter into the world of MUKTHI, without any delay, through the divine blessings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The greediness in one’s mind, make him / her, a workaholic. This state of over – exertion brings numerous problems in personal and public life. The man starts to accumulate money and dump it, in a secret place. His / her mind gets fully occupied with the thoughts of preserving that money safely, without any loss. This mental stiffness makes them rigid. They behave like a mighty monster, in preserving that large amount of money. But, that money alone will not serve in all occasions and forcible circumstances. Many unavoidable circumstances may come in one’s life, wherein he / she had to take a shelter under the divine grace of Bhagavan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the time of old age, one’s mind starts craving for kind hearted people, devoid of selfishness. Having crossed many golden years of life, mostly people starts to repent over the missed opportunities. They start dreaming about their earlier days of life. In that dream world of repenting over the past, some more years also passes on. The money earned by him / her goes to the successive generation. The young folks spent that money luxuriously. At the site of this, the people at the old age, gets much depressed and their life turns towards darkness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the old age, they become incapable of controlling their children. The children wish to rule over their aged parents and they become deaf ear to the advices coming from elders. This state of neglect, coming from their own children makes the elderly people to confine themselves within the four walls of the house. Their own house seems to be a jail and they behave as though, they were kept in house arrest. They keep themselves aloof. The mental dejection and sadness felt in their heart, makes them taciturn. They suppress their inner emotions and keep their mouth shut. They exhibit a false smile on their face, in the midst of public and remorse silently in the dark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The physical and mental stamina starts reducing. They have to depend on some body for their day to day life. They have to implore with people, even for a very small wanting in life. At this stage, the money alone will not serve as a pacifier of sorrows. Money is essential for leading a happy life. But, money alone will not bring totality in life. Life is multi – dimensional and money plays a role in it. One should search for the divine peace at the earliest. The divine peace achieved through devotion will bring the totality in life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The BHIKSHU started saying, “I should be thankful to Bhagavan. HE had taught me a beautiful lesson about life. I have lost all my money. Now, I don’t have any burden. I don’t have to worry about any thing. Now, I understood the cruelty hidden in the inner heart of people. For enjoying material benefits, they made use of me and sucked my wealth. On hearing about my poverty, they all eloped in no minutes of time. I am left all alone in this world. No one is ready to care for me. Now, I have to search for that divine kind hearted person, namely the KRISHNA BHAGAVAN. All along my life, I searched for happiness from these materialistic people, but in vain. Now, should search for divine happiness coming from the BHAGAVAN. This poverty had provoked in me, a sense of determination to attain Bhagavan. Bhagavan will shower his grace on me. HE will accept me without fail.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the state of greedy man, his life was transformed to a state of BHIKSHU (austerity). He left every thing. He carried with him the divine grace of Krishna Bhagavan. This divine grace guided him to cross the barriers and he accepted the sufferings as blessings in disguise. The grace of Bhagavan is all – pervasive, as that of sun rays. One should enjoy the happiness of divine grace, at the earliest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Krishna Bhagavan had showered his abundant grace to one and all in the world, on the KRISHNA JAYANTHI DAY. Let the blessings of our Sathguru – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, make our life, a happier one. Let the divine grace of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, bring in us, the sense of determination to go in the path of Krishna Bhakthi, as given by Our Sathguru – Poojya Shree Shree Amma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…RADHEKRISHNA…&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                         &lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                            (TO CONTINUE…)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112521986038948715?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112521986038948715/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112521986038948715' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112521986038948715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112521986038948715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/08/bhikshu-geetham-jay-shree-poojya-shree_28.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112385318187104623</id><published>2005-08-12T20:25:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-08-12T22:26:21.920+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The greedy man was wasting his life in undue means. HE abandoned the 5 kind of YAGNAMS. Every action has it's own reaction. The actions that are in accordance with the divine wish of Bhagavan are termed as PUNYA KARMA (FRUITFUL ACTIONS). These actions mutually benefit one another and will improve the prosperity of the society. The actions that are self - centric, leading to the exploitation of natural resources / fellowmen in the society are termed as PAPA KARMA (FUTILE ACTIONS). These actions will make our life sorrowful. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The fruit of PUNYA KARMA is pleasure. The fruit of PAPA KARMA is sorrow. Hinduism lays a strong foundation on this KARMA THEORY. One of the Scientific law says, " every action will have an equivalent and opposite reaction". The foundation stone for this scientific law was laid in the form of Karma Theory, by Hinduism from time immemorial. The right actions in the form of Punya Karma wil return back as PUNYAM (reaction) leading to pleasure. The wrong actions inthe form of PAPA KARMA will return back as PAPAM (reaction) leading to sorrow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;In the story, the wealthy man was giving much trouble to the people around him. The wrong actions done by him in the form of Papa Karma, started to show their true face in the form of Papam, leading to sorrowful life. A bad time came in his life. His wealth started reducing. He was toiling night and day for years together to stock and accumulate huge amount of wealth. The people associated with him made a develish plot to snatch his wealth. They cleverly betrayed him and looted much of his wealth. Some thieves started visiting his place regularly and were happy to leave from his house with a valuable stock of jewels, gold, jems etc., at every visit, now and then.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The enemies started to destroy his wealth by wrong means. They burnt his mighty stock of wealth in the form of farmhouse, agriculture lands etc., in no minutes of time with the help of a small pile of fire. Out of fear, the wealthy man started to dump his wealth underground, so that he can make use of them as a treasure in later years. But, that too was in vain. He kept his money for a long time under the earth. The currency had got rotten and of no use to any one. Accumulation of huge money is not wealth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Getting the right things at the right proper time through right means, as per the guidelines of a SATHGURU, can very well account for prosperous happy life. Money itself will not bring happiness and pleasure. The money earned through right means under the guidelines of a SATHGURU will bring in us a sense of fulfillment. This state of satisfaction cannot be achieved by material means. Inner happines can be attained through the constant chanting of Radhekrishna Namam and seeking the blessings of our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;In his earlier life, the greedy man was not listening to the kind advice coming from the SATHGURU. He betrayed many people. The affected people started developing their power as years passed on. When the wealthy man was in hardship, they started playing with his life. They gave him unbearable troubles. They made suitable arrangements to ruin his life. They informed the ruling power (King) about the unauthorized money kept under his stock. The wealthy man was cheating the government. He made use of his power in the form of money, influene, authority, links etc., and cheated the government, during his earlier life. Now, the government snatched much of his wealth under the pretext of penalty and due charges.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Under selfish means, many people helped him to cheat the deprived and minted money like any thing. He thought that they were his intimate friends  and of close associates too. He trusted at them. But, that was not the real scenario. On hearing about his poverty, many of his intimate friends, left him without any hesitation for even a second.  They left him to suffer in his life, in the later years. They never stopped at that point. They started giving him much troubles, discarding their earlier intimacy with him. His very own intimate friends have turned to be near rivals. They sucked his wealth, to the last drop of blood and left him penniless in this world. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;All his money was lost. He became a pauper. Every one started neglecting him. He was left all alone, in this world. There was no one to passify his sorrows. He was not following the righteous means. He was not doing the PUNYA KARMA (FRUITFUL ACTIONS), leading to pleasure. He was left penniless and can no longer enjoy the material benefits. His friends, relatives, servants etc., and all other people left him in utter distress. He entered into a state of GLOOM as if his "LIFE SHIP" was broken into pieces and nothing is worthwhile after this state of extreme sadness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;He started crying in loud voice, "  My wealth was lost. I betrayed many people for the want of more money. I am receiving the fruit of it. Now, I am feeling the sufferings of it. I was making a fun play with their life. But, when I am facing this utter distress, I could feel their mental agony. Bhagavan has taught me this beautiful lesson, in a nice way. The people, whoever I trusted a lot, left me in no minutes of time. After all, they were after my money. When my money was lost, they left the scene. I have misplaced my trust in these materialistic people. I should have kept a strong faith in the words of seer's (SATHGURU). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I have lost much of my life. But, then I have some more years to pass on. Let me make use of those years, in building a strong faith on to the lotus feet of Krishna Bhagavan. I have passed many hardships and minted money. But, that money was mortal. Let me accept the sufferings as blessings in disguise and lead a poise devotional life. I was running after money, in my earlier life. Let me run after the divine peace, in my later life."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;He started narrating the materialistic uncertainity life as his own life experience. This body was unnecessarily tortured  to mint money. This body is the divine abode of Krishna Bhagavan. I have ruined it. All my efforts have become futile. When I was put under micery, nothing saved me. Neither money nor materialistic people, came to my rescue. Now I can firmly say that, " The money that is not spent for divine cause, under the guidelines of scriptures as written by seer's, will never bring in real happiness, in any one's life." The money always remains temporary. It passes on from one hand to another. Even when it is dumped in huge stock, it will be ransacked by someone, by some immoral means, at one point of time. The life is short. One should search for the right means to lead a happy life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The beginning of leprosy will make a beautiful appearence, seemingly ugly. In the same way, even a small amount of misery in one's mind, will destroy all his good qualities. One should never be selfish. One should always help his / her fellowmen, by sparing some of his / her money, under the guidelines of righteous divine norms. One should listen to the words of a SATHGURU, on this aspect. The SATHGURU possess, a vast knowledge on the divine norms leading to a blissful world. To make this world, a blissful one, one should go by the words of a SATHGURU, to know the hidden meaning behind scriptures.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Human beings toil a lot, to make money for their day to day living. After attaining that level, they enter into a higher state of minting more money and multiplying their materialistic resources. They segregate themselve from the poor and needy. They seperate themselve as upper middle class. They suitably focus their mind towards finding the ways and means to protect their possessions in the form of land, building, money, gold ornaments etc., After attaining a certain stage, that wealth starts ruling their life. A big treasure is a big misery. That treasure binds them in iron chains. First they toil a lot, to have mastery over money. But, in their later years, the money laugh at them. The money rules their master. The money gains a mastery over their so called wealthy possessor.            &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;For minting huge money various mischievous evil things are done. These include cheating, hypocrisy, exploiting the other man's natural abilities, becoming a liar, taking suitable make-up and enacting beautiful plays to impress others, cheating others by means of words, gestures, costumes etc., making develish plot to abduct others by immoral means, getting angry at the loss of wealth, developing egoism / superiority complex, feels proud on achieving a high target and all other related symptoms arise. Egoism, loss of reasoning, partiality, vengeance, suspicion, hatred, gambling, bad company, drinking habits, addicted to bad habits, enjoying immoral carnal pleasure, immoral marital relationship etc., and all these arise out of achieving mastery over money, by immoral means.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The possession of wealth will not bind us, if we keep our mind detatched from it. We can enjoy the luxurious life, as per the divine wish of Krishna Bhagavan. But, they should not be enjoyed under the illusion of egoism and sentimental bindings. We should enjoy the worldly things, as a divine gift of Krishna Bhagavan. By surrendering the sensual pleasures arising out of them, on to the lotus feet of Krishna Bhagavan, we can keep our mind detatched from worldly bindings. The blessings of SATHGURU, will make this statement, a reality. Only through the blessings of a SATHGURU , we can make our mind detatched from sentimental bindings.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;We are fortuned to have our SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA. We got this precious life. We are fortuned to receive the blessings from our SATHGURU, at a earlier stage in our life. Let us spend the rest of our life, towards a noble cause of attaining Krishna Bhagavan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;The narration of this doctrine will continue in the following pages, in the upcoming issue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAY &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;                                                                                                                                              (TO CONTINUE...) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112385318187104623?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112385318187104623/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112385318187104623' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112385318187104623'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112385318187104623'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/08/bhikshu-geetham-jay-shree-poojya-shree.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112247903935237587</id><published>2005-07-28T00:29:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-07-28T00:51:43.306+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fourth kind of YAGNAM is called as BHOOTHA YAGNAM or JEEVA YAGNAM. The eco-system has various kinds of species of living creatures, each species having a definite habitat and all together help in the smooth running of this eco-system. Nature loves diversity. Each creature has a specific kind of work to perform, during their life time. The work done by each creature is unique and in that respect, they make the natural elements fruitful, and indirectly save the mankind from starvation. The human race is directly or indirectly helped by the various other creatures living in this eco-system. The JEEVA YAGNAM is performed to express our sense of gratitude to other animals, which helped us in getting the resources from earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cow gives us milk. They help in the agriculture. In olden days, cow helped the farmer as a best companion, in getting the resources from earth. So, cow was considered to be a life giving source and worshipped as a symbol of divinity. The cow and coats were taken care with utmost love and sincerity. The basic requirements in the form of fodder, shelter etc., for these animals were provided by the care takers with due respect. The protective measures were done with utmost care to preserve the biological diversity.&lt;br /&gt;The ruling king gave a good consideration on the aspect of protecting the wild life and biological diversity. The animals like horses, elephants were trained to assist the soldiers in the battle field. Specialized doctors were appointed to look after the health of these animals. The possession of large number of cows indirectly reflected the prosperity of a nation, in those days. The king made suitable arrangements to protect them from the invasion of other rulers. These activities account for the importance of the animal welfare in those days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The common man also had a sense of commitment towards keeping the wild life in a good condition. The JEEVA YAGNAM accounts for all kind of activities, starting from the household activities to the higher level activities concerned with the king, done towards preserving the biodiversity prevailing in the eco-system.&lt;br /&gt;The daily routines performed by a GRUHASTHAN (a family man), indirectly helped the domestic animals and small insects. In the morning, ladies used to draw KOLAM (E.g. Rangoli) with the powder made from rice flour. This rice flour can be consumed by small insects and ants. It helped the ants and small insects to have some food daily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The food items prepared were surrendered on to the lotus feet of BHAGAVAN as a humble offering. A humble prayer was made to please the Bhagavan and the food was served to the family members as a PRASADAM (as a gift of Bhagavan). A small amount of food was kept aside, to feed the birds. Usually crow and some small birds took these offerings and it served their daily food without fail. Some amount of left over food was used to feed the pet animals. The tree, flowers kept on the sides of a house, attracted many species of birds, insects, butterfly, honeybee etc., and these small creatures helped in preserving the diversity of eco-system. The bio-degradable wastes coming form these plantations were recycled as fertilizers and manures. The daily routine of a GRUHASTHAN was in accordance with nature and it helped them to lead a happy life, devoid of pollution and contamination. All the actions that were done towards, bringing in a harmonious natural life, were termed as JEEVA YAGNAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fifth kind of Yagnam was called as BRAHMA YAGNAM or RISHI YAGNAM. This was considered as the prime part of the 5 kind of Yagnam’s. Bhagavan passes his message through the SATHGURU. The SATHGURU come to this material world to uplift the suffering people. The SATHGURU preaches the divine knowledge of Bhagavan. By listening to their words, one can make his/her life a blissful one.&lt;br /&gt;The sacrifices and humble services that are rendered on to the divine feet of SATHGURU and the GURU PARAMPARA [the continuous cycle of GURU and SHISHYA, starting from the past to the present (at any point of time)] , is called as BRAHMA YAGNAM. Obeying the orders of Sathguru and spending the time usefully in listening to the divine preaching coming from a Sathguru, is called as BRAHMA YAGNAM.&lt;br /&gt;The SATHGURU conveys the message of Bhagavan and cleanse our mind. The mind wanders in all directions and remains untamed. The mind search for ANANDAM (unlimited true divine joy). So, it starts moving from one direction to another direction. The ship that is sailing in the sea gets distracted at all directions in the strong wind. In the same way, our mind distracts under the wind of CRAVING and becomes perplexed and tensed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CRAVING of the mind comes to a halt, on reaching the lotus feet of a SATHGURU. A lamp that is kept in an open air distracts up and down, in all possible directions. When the same lamp is kept under protection, inside a dome means, there the passage of air is uniform and the lamp glows brightly, giving true colours. The Sathguru’s feet are the protection and this dome will make our inner lamp to glow brightly, giving the true light of KRISHNA BHAKTHI. The Bhagavan calmly resides inside the heart of Sathguru. Thus the inner heart of SATHGURU is the temple of worship for the SHISHYA. In this temple, we can easily catch the divinity of Bhagavan and keep our life a happier one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The captain of a ship suitably navigates the ship from the upcoming danger of winds and safely takes the people to the boarding point. The captain knows the ways and means to navigate the ship, to reach the destination safely. The travelers need to have a faith in the ability of the captain, so that they can reach the destination.

MANUSHYA can be split in to MAN and HUSHYA. The word MAN – symbolizes the mind. The word HUSHYA – symbolizes free from distractions (purified). The word MANHUSHYA gives the meaning of purified mind. The purified mind, devoid of confusions paves way for a human being to be called as MANHUSHYA. Only those who are fortuned to have a SATHGURU are able to get purify them self, by the mercy of Bhagavan. Such a purified soul attains the state of MANHUSHYA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The MANUSHYA YAGNAM was performed to make the human being live humanely towards his / her fellowmen. In our inner heart, we should have the divine mercy of Krishna Bhagavan, to extend a helping hand to other fellowmen. The divine knowledge that is shared among the fellowmen brings in a state of harmony in the society. The greatest gift, which is a treasure for ages to come, is none other than, the NAMAM – DIVINE NAME OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Sathguru preaches the glory of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM. The gift of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM is precious. The glory of Bhagavan’s Namam is infinite. It is the protection for us at all times, in our life. It is the joy giving source to each and every one. The gift and other charitable activities last for a short span of time only. But, the glory of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM remains a permanent treasure and can be used as and when required.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The food that is offered on one time will make that man calm only for that moment. The next time when he / she feel hunger, there the problem of searching for the food comes once again. The medical help given to the sick people removes one particular disease and the suffering associated with it. Once that particular disease gets cured, there he / she get a sigh of relief. It reappears in some other form. There also the offering given in the form of medical aid remains temporary only. The gift of clothes given on a charitable basis, also serves for a short span of time only. The worldly things are always mortal and they definitely have an end at one point of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The worldly education given under charitable means in the form of scholarships also serves for a specific purpose only. The courses that are taught are meant for specific type of work only. They all got some restrictions. The expert knowledge acquired in one particular field also fails to express it’s capability in some other different industry in some alien land.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The courses, practical exposure given under one particular set of educational curriculum, seem to fail in some other alien environment involving some other parameters. The scope and limitation of any kind of course or practical knowledge can be felt in each and every walk of life. The advancements takes place rapidly and at each interval of time, the courses and the knowledge content provided in them takes much modifications, which seems to be random and multi- dimensional too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The divine knowledge given by the SATHGURU is a permanent treasure and which can be applied in any place under any testing periods of one’s life. All the worldly things and the worldly knowledge are mortal. They all have to end at one point of time and take a new modified form. The knowledge of BHAGAVAN is immortal. The divine knowledge remains a permanent source of true education. The SATHFURU preaches this divine aspect of life in the form of spiritual education.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, as given by our Sathguru – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, also serves the purpose of performing the MANUSHYA YAGNAM, in all respects. The RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM is the food for the soul. The food given to the body, gives joy only at that moment. The RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, namely the food for the soul, brings in joy to the soul and is of permanent joy too. The free food given to the deprived people makes them calm only for that time. The Sathguru freely and abundantly distributes the divine food – namely RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, to one and all in the world. This divine food will only grow in time and will never get drained. The RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM consumed fully to one’s heart content, brings in total joy to mind and body and gives ANANDAM to the soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM, as given by our Sathguru – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA is the panacea to one and all in the world. Silence is the panacea for all diseases and problems. That kind of divine peace and silence can be achieved by the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam. The chanting of Radhekrishna Namam is the perfect form of medical treatment for the problems and diseases of the people around the world. The chanting done in faith brings in us a state of harmony. This state of harmony heals the body and cures the diseases. The Sathguru freely supplies this medical treatment to one and all in the world. The preaching of Radhekrishna Namam, by the Sathguru forms the MANUSHYA YAGNAM, in true sense as per the wish of Krishna Bhagavan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The knowledge of self – awareness is the perfect form of education, which each and every one should learn during his / her life time. The self –realization, brings in us the total protection against all odds, during our life time. We are the proud children of our divine parents namely Krishna Bhagavan and Radha Matha. Out of mistaken identity, under the illusion of I’ ness and my ‘ness, we get trapped in the worldly affairs. We imagine that our body is permanent and the people associated with the external pleasures to be resourceful at all times, in our life. But, the SATHGURU preaches the true nature of our life and the divine glory of Bhagavan in making our life to run smoothly. The Sathguru makes us understand that, we are just tools in the hands of Bhagavan and by moving in accordance with his divine plan; we can free our self from bindings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The knowledge of the divine power of Krishna Bhagavan as given by our Sathguru brings in us a harmony. We come out of the illusion. At each and every stage, the Sathguru cleanses our sins in the form of me and my feelings. When this darkness is removed by the Sathguru, we see the divine light passing through our body. This divine light, takes us from darkness to the world of light. By our own efforts, we cannot wash our sins in the form of the possessive feelings hidden in our heart. The divine grace of Krishna Bhagavan and the blessings of Our Sathguru – POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, act as a guiding force and take us from darkness to light.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112123001409056323?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112123001409056323/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112123001409056323' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112123001409056323'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112123001409056323'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/07/bhikshu-gee-jay-shree-poojya-shree.html' title='BHIKSHU GEE JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-112122965251075932</id><published>2005-06-27T13:36:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-07-13T13:40:52.520+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GE JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BHIKSHU GEETHAM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In PITHRU YAGNAM, offerings were done in the form of variety of foods. Usually 3 to 4 people of poise character were invited for that ceremony. They represent the 3 roles of Bhagavan, namely creation (by BHRAHMA), protection (by VISHNU), destroying (by RUDHRAN). The fourth one represents the place for Vedic illustrator, who makes this religious festival, a purified one. He is given the term BHRUHASPATHI (Vedic Guru to control the purity and austerity of the religious festival). During this Yagnam, various kinds of things were given as an offering to suitably selected BHRAHMINS of high virtue and moral character. Rich people spent much of their royal items, as offerings to suitably selected BHRAHMINS, during this PITHRU YAGNAM. The offering list included many items viz. cow, land, gold offerings, huge stock of food grains, beautiful living spaces and many other utensils of day to day life. These kinds of offerings were done on a philanthropic basis in a larger sense. They directly and indirectly improved the economy of the ruling nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the story, the BHIKSHU was very greedy, during his earlier life. He never wanted to let anything, leave from his stock of wealth. So, he started to develop a sense of hatred towards these YAGNAMS, which were mentioned in BHAGAVATHAM. These 5 YAGNAMS laid a strong foundation for philanthropic activities, so that money can circulate from the rich to the poor. Under the fear of losing the money and thinking about the future ill consequences of poverty, the greedy man started to stock his wealth as much as possible. Even a small amount of money spent on some noble cause of philanthropic activities, made him sad and depressed and created a sense of fear in his mind. He started to neglect these YAGNAMS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The PITHRU YAGNAM account for some of the concepts of economy too. The currency value of a country gets increased, when the currency circulates from rich to the poor and the price value of each and every commodity rises suitably. Poverty is due to the improper distribution of wealth. On the one end, money gets accumulated and dumped in the rich man’s palace. But on the other side, the people below the poverty line could not afford to the shooting prices, prevailing in the market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The products coming from the work of people, from lower sector of the society, need to circulate in the market. This will increase the price value of those things. This will make the poor to gain some income and this will indirectly reduce the economic ups and downs in the society, thereby increasing the currency value of the nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The functions and YAGNAMS were done in larger scales covering various products. The food offerings given to the BHRAHMINS, served as a philanthropic approach of feeding at least 3 to 4 people in the society. Usually, the PITHRU YAGNAM should be done 108 days in a year. The BRAHMINS, who were chosen for participating in this Yagnam, were usually from deprived class but of high spiritual and moral value. It laid a condition that, the Brahmins should be chosen on random and rotational basis only. So, it accounts for feeding the deprived class in the society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The purchase of food grains and related items helped the farmers and associated workers to gain some income and helped them to get the basic necessities of their life. The offerings given to the BHAGAVAN included a list of items viz. flowers, betel leaves, fruits, fragrance materials and other related ritual items. These items came from the varied class of people in the society. Each of these industries made a substantial income out of them. The purchase of clothes, cow, gold offerings, building materials, various utensils during these functions, contributed for growth of various related industries and served the economic necessity of lower middle class and deprived class of people in the society. These kinds of YAGNAMS, directly or indirectly helped all the sectors of people in the society to make a substantial income, thereby reducing the gap between the rich and the deprived.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nowadays, usually some selected sectors and industries flourish, yielding huge some of money, to the people associated with them. But, they directly or indirectly make the people, to look out their grounding on these industries at the expense of others. For the want of quick money, to meet the economic needs, people modify themselves to the top- notch fields and the high tech jobs, leaving the rest to diminish as time passes on. The high amount of public involvement in these selected industries brings an upper middle class life, in a very short span of time. But, those who are not able to cope with these high standards are forced to remain in the state of deprived class, in the below poverty line of the society. This brings a deep economic furrow between the rich and the poor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The YAGNAM (SACRIFICE) was performed with due respect, invoking the blessings of BHAGAVAN, by means of chanting the Vedic hymns. The food offerings were surrendered on to the lotus feet of Bhagavan and they were distributed to the revered BRAHMINS of poise character, as a divine offering. BHAGAVATAHAM states that, “The departed soul come and takes these offerings. The food offered to these revered BRAHMINS, indirectly calmed the cravings of the departed souls. The departed souls take these 4 BRAHMINS as a representative and accept the offerings in disguise. The unfulfilled wishes, dreams and cravings, of the departed souls, suitably get reduced by these divine offerings, done to BHAGAVAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The third kind of YAGNAM is known as MANUSHYA YAGNAM. It is otherwise called as NARA YAGNAM. Our divine parents are KRISHNA BHAGAVAN and RADHA MATHA. We are belonging to one family, namely the family of Krishna Bhagavan. The family of VASUDEVAN, namely KRISHNA BHAGAVAN is one. This is what is called in Sanskrit as VASUDAIVAIKA KUDUMBAGAM - means the one family of Krishna Bhagavan (Vasudevan). The services that are done selflessly, towards bringing in unity, divine peace and divine joy are termed as MANUSHYA YAGNAM. Providing free food to the deprived people, giving free medical aid to the sick people, improving the quality of life among rural masses, giving the divine knowledge and self –awareness to the people of remote areas, who are inaccessible to those high level knowledge and other related philanthropic activities done to the society comes under MANUSHYA YAGNAM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The MANUSHYA YAGNAM, brings in a social integrity and social prosperity, by means of charitable activities done by the devotee’s of a SATHGURU, as per the wish of BHAGAVAN. The greatest service done to a human being is, giving him / her, the divine knowledge of KRISHNA BHAGAVAN and make him / her, to realize the infinite divine potential hidden in them through the chanting of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM – as given by a SATHGURU. Our Guruji Amma is here to preach us the glory of the RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM and make us, a true child of our divine parents namely Krishna Bhagavan and Radha Matha. Let us admit our self on to the lotus feet of our Guruji Amma to enjoy the full potential of RADHEKRISHNA NAMAM and make our life a blissful one.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-112122965251075932?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/112122965251075932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=112122965251075932' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112122965251075932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/112122965251075932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/06/bhikshu-ge-jay-shree-poojya-shree.html' title='BHIKSHU GE JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-111859343903859489</id><published>2005-06-13T00:06:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-06-13T01:23:59.076+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM-9</title><content type='html'>Athidhooraath saameebhyaadhindhriya -&lt;br /&gt;ghaathaan mano (a)navasthaanaath/&lt;br /&gt;Sawkshmyaadh vyavadhaanaadhabhi bhavaath&lt;br /&gt;Samaanaabhihaaraachcha//&lt;br /&gt;Sawkshmyaath thadhanupalabhdhi:&lt;br /&gt;naabhaavaath kaaryathasthadhu palabhdhE:/&lt;br /&gt;- SAANKHYA KAARIGAI, 7,8 .&lt;br /&gt;                          by ISWARA KRISHNAR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A thing may not be visible to us owing to many reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(i) The thing may be far away from us, which is beyond our scope and focus of the eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(ii) The thing may be too small, Which our eye may not recognize.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(iii)The thing intensity may be so large that, the reflection coming from it may not be in coherence with the power of the lens of the eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(iv)The thing may be very close say at micro or nano or say 10 to the power of -20&lt;br /&gt;i.e ( 1/1000000000000000000)&lt;br /&gt;means there it is far below the focal point of our eyes.&lt;br /&gt;(v)The organisms that which are not visible,because the reflection coming from them is not receptible to our human retina e.g micro organisms which need magnification, so that under the large area of space, we may have the pasibility of reflection between our retina of the eye, and from the micro organism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(vi)Defect in the focusting power of our eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the visibility of a thing is in relation to the power of our eye only. The factor that may affect our visibility are (i)Far away distance (ii)very close proximity of unmasinable shorter distance (iii)Too small, to comprehend, which is of minute origin (iv)Too large of very huge intensity, which cannot be absorbed (v)Unmatchable wavelength (vi)defect in the eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The visibility or invisibility, depends on the power of an individual and is a variable quantity only. The clouds are loosely arranged and to see them, we need more resolution power in the eyes. There may be some individual, who will be in a position to see still more with high esolution power in the eyes. And this phenomenon goes on and paves way for seeing the objects of minute dimentions which may seem to be invisible to our naked eye. ONe nannot deemed to condemn, a thing that which is beyond his control and reach, and which need a very high level of synchronixing power. The invisibility to a man. may be of visibility to another man with good vision. The invisibility of microorganisms may also be visible to RISHI's, who lived in ancient vedic tradition, whose eye lenses had the magnifying power say as that of 10,000 X, as the case may be in terms of our present scientific are whether we call it as magnifying power,resolution power, lox 100x , or 1000x or by whatever term we are only giving names to the already existing phenomenon in the mighty nature. The vedic tradition scientists, namely RISHI's had the capability of seeing the invisible forms for a man with defective vision, without spectacles, the object that are actually present in visible form (REALITY)&lt;br /&gt;becomes invisible (FALSEHOOD). For him, the reality itself becomes Falsehood. But the same object is visible to a healthy man of correct vision. The invisibility of a thing to a man with defective vision, itself attains the stage of visibility to a man with good correct vision or correted vision.&lt;br /&gt;So, the visibility or invisibility is a relative phenomenon only. It can vary from person to person and from one thing to another. In the same way, the invisible objects or invisible forms as we name it, may be of visible to RISHI'S, who had correct vision. Our science has advanced only to 1000x or say some other lower levels of magnification and we deemed to condemn the objects that are out of our scope of magnification, as invisible. The scientists of vedic Tradition, namely RISHI'S had the ways and means to get correct vision or getting corrected vision (as that of wearing spectacles nowadays), to improve the magnifying power of the lens of the eyes, to a higher level say 10,000 X or even of higher value, to see the invisible forms, as we name them due to our lack of capability. Our incapability should not pave way to condemn and criticize, the REALITY as FALSEHOOD and FOOLISH ACT. Our science should advance further to a very higher level to accept  the facts, that are given by our RISHI'S, as it is mentioned in Bhagavatham. Our intellect should be broad. Our mind should not become narrow and self centric. we should have an open mind to accept the scientific advancements, thatwere in reality, in daily affairs and as experienced by RISHI'S of vedic tradition. The scientific advancement of present are is acknowledged and enjoyed by us. In the same way scientific advancement of unimaginable growth and dimension, were prevailed in ancient vedic tradition HINDHU DHARMAM - SANATHANA DHARMAM, is so open and broad minded to allow, Scientific advancement to grow in uncontrollable dimension, leading to drastic results of super - innovations, which are now seemingly so astonishing and out of our imagination. The broad mindedness 0f  scientists of vedic tradition - RISHI's paved them way to think broadly as that of boundless sky and of cosmo's, and research done by them in the form of TAPA'S., lead them to invention. We all know the word Research. Research deals with sustained deep rooted study to reveal some hidden knowledge. In the same way TAPA'S, was the word used by people of vedic tradition. We call now as Research and invention. They call it as tapa's and sidhi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RESEARCH = TAPA'S&lt;br /&gt;SIDHI          = INVENTION&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;words of ancient tradition can also be accepted. There is nothing harm in it. We can call the words TAPA'S and sidhi, as we feel to express them, likely so. We can be free to accept the fruits that are got from the TAPA'S d0ne by RISHI'S. After all, we want only fruits. The fruits devoid of ill effects and which can give long and sustained life can always be admired and glorified. They toiled a tot . Many RISHI'S have renounced their worldly life and sacrifice it for the welfare of mankind. They done vigorous TAPA'S (didicated Research assignment) and attained SIDHI (INVENTION) in their endeavour. The invention gets its true value, only if it serves the mankind. Hundreds and Hundreds of inventions are already done by RISHI'S. They put their findings in VEDHA'S (say research treatise) in the sanskrit language (nowadays we acknowledge english for research work). To get the ripe from the inventions of our scientists, we need to learn the language in which it is presented (say english or germany or russian etc),In  the same way to know the hidden facts and the inventions of RISHI'S. we need to go by their language, say sanskrit . We look for only advancement and not decrement for our advancement and not decrement.For our advancement We can take the good things from all possible ways and means. Learning the invientions with the help of sanskrit, can also lead to better scientific advancement of multi-dimensional usefulness to mankind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The chanting of "RADHE KRISHNA" namam, as given by our sathguru - Poojya shree shree Amma, will make us complete in all sense.

Divinity - acquiring the divine qualities of Krishna Bhagavan through the chnating of RADHEKRISHNA Namam as given by our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, will make our life complete in all sense.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The 5 kind of Yagnams (divine sacrifices) that need to be performed by a GRUHASTHAN - One who has house with family members (GHRUHAM) are &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;1) DEVA YAGNAM 2) PITHRU YAGNAM 3) MANUSHYA YAGNAM 4) BHOOTHA YAGNAM 5) RISHI YAGNAM&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;1) Deva Yagnam - the divine sacrifices done to please the 5 basic elements of nature, which play a vital role in the creation of mankind. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;2) Pithru Yagnam - the divine sacrifices done to please the departed souls, invoking the blessigs of them, and they bring a harmony to our life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;3) Manushya Yagnam - This is otherwise called as NARA YAGNAM. We are all the children of divine parents, namely Krishna Bhagavan and Radha Matha. The services that are done to the society selflessly, under the guidelines of a Sathguru, towards bringing in unity, divine peace and joy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;4) Bhootha Yagnam - This is otherwise called as JEEVA YAGNAM. Showering our love on to the other creatures that are living on this world, comes under this. The other living creatures in this world, directly or indirectly helps in the smooth running of our day to day life. We should be thankful and lyal to Bhagavan for showering his mercy on to us, in keeping this eco system filled with joy and happiness. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;5) Rishi Yagnam - This is other wise called as BRAHMA YAGNAM. The sacrifices and humble services that are rendered on to the divine feet of Sathguru and the GURU PARAMPARA, is called as BRAHMA YAGNAM. Obeying the orders of SATHGURU and spending the time usefully in listening to the divine preachings coming from a Sathguru is called as Brahma Yagnam. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Krishna Bhagavan resides in each and every one. Without his presence, every thing becomes immobile. The fruitful actions done by any individual, comes only from the hidden divine power of Krishna Bhagavan. The celestial deva's who are in control of the mighty nature, in the form of 5 basic elements are also kept in control by the divie will of Krishna Bhagavan. The Deva's are also helpless and immobile, in the absence of the divine power and grace of Krishna Bhagavan. The land keeps to be fertile and patient. Ocean keeps to be pure and life giving. Fire keeps to be calm and never exceeds it's limit. Air keeps to be pure, inspite of all our cantaminants and pollutants. The sky always keeps his limit high, and never falls on us. Just imagine for a moment. All the lands becomes barren and the food crops coming from them, produces only poisonous food grains. The drinking water becomes acidic and acts like a poison, killing the human race altogether. Entire earth being engulfed in fire and people all scream to save their life, but in vain. The air starts refusing to enter into our body and they remain in the sky itself. All people die out of suffocation. Entire sky becomes clouded, keeping all our life in total darkess. This is only an imagination. Famine may take place in some parts of the world. But, not in every parts of the world. Even if one part of the world is affected by such natural calamity, Bhagavan extends his helping hand through the people of other parts of the world. But, only those who are fortunate to have the divine blessings of the Krishna Bhagavan, are able to enjoy it fully. The sufferings are blessings in disguise. The noble souls, who showed their sense of gratitude and loylaty to the creation of Bhagavan namely plants, animals, eco system etc., are able to receive it back, as a blessing in disguise. The homage done in the form of 5 yagnams, give the fruit back, as a blessing in disguise, during the miserable time of suffering. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The second kind of Yagnam is called as Pithru Yagnam. This Yagnam is done to pay homage to the departed souls. These sacrifices are done to please the departed souls, who are not in existence in human visible form, as seen by naked eye. The yagnam is performed to please the departed souls, who live in outer space in cosmo's. The Pithru Yagnam belongs to the Vedic Tradition and is still followed with due respect. VEDIC TRADITION insists in performing the Pithru Yagnam, to please the departed souls. It is mentioned in the BHAGAVATHAM that, the PITHRU (DEPARTED SOUL) will come and take the offering in invisible form. The thing that is not visible to our naked eye is termed as invisible and we take the priviledge to condemn them all under the pretext of silly superstitions. Nowadays, we see many people wearing spectacles for their defects in the visibility. On the other hand, there are still many more people, who enjoy good health with good visibility and they desn't require spectacles to correct their vision. The thing that is appearing to our eyes, should have the power to impinge the retina and the lens in the eyes should have the focussing power to absorb that light radiation, in order to get a clear picture of it, to get register in the mind. The sensitiveness and the sensibility of the eye, gives light and shape to the object of focuss and conveys the message to the brain, toacknowledge the same. We see numerous appearences of clouds in the form of elephant, dog, rabbit, mountain, round shape, unproportionate size patches etc., and the brain acknowledges these APPEARENCES TO BE UNIQUE IN THEIR NATURE, in comparision to the REST. A person of defective vision may not be able to rad the letters even at a very shorter distance of 1 metre. In some advanced defect condition, some people are not even able to see the person, standing just before him / her. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Does it mean that the letters written on the board are silly superstitions?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Does it mean that, the person standing before him / her is a ghost ? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;THE DEFECT IN THE EYE, MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A healthy individual with good focussing power and high magnitude of resonance power in the brain, will have much clear vision, even at a distance of 30 to 40 metres. The resolution power of the eye lens, the conductivity of nerve impulses to the brain, are seemingly appreciable in these healthy individual. These individual are able to see cloud appearences at a longer distances of few hundred metres. The resolution power of the eye lens is more and is capable of absorbing even the light radiation coming from those very loosely packed atoms and the brain has the resonance power accompanied by very quick nerve impulses to acknowledge those cloudy appeareces, which are going to be out of scope from the focussing point of the eye lens, once they vanish in the sky. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A thing may not be visible to our eyes due to many reasons. They are&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;1) Far away ( beyound our scope and focuss of the eye).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;2) Very close  proximity ( far below the scope and focuss of eye).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;3) The defects in the organs. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;4)The mental imbalances ( to reconnise and acknowledge).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;5) Minute (like that of micro - organism).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;6) Vanishing ( disappearing from the impinging medium).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;7) Merged ( getting merged with the focussing radiation itself).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;8) The mixing of typical radiations ( of same wavelength, radiation, energy).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;To know more about the above facts, wait till the next issue to study about the SANKHYA KAARIGAI, written by ISWARA KRISHNAR.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Let the blessings of our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, bring in us the visibility to have the DARSHAN of Krishna Bhagavan and merge with his DIVINE FORM. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;JAI SHREE RADHE KRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA..

The beads represent our body. The soul is the minute thread. When the soul moves from that body, there comes the stage of 'death' for that particular body. The soul never dies. When the thread is broken, all the beads will fall off. The beads are not joined by themself. They are joined by the thread, minutely. The thread acts as a binding force. This thread runs from one individual to another and keeps every one in tact. Krishna Bhagavan residing in each and every body, as a soul should be glorified always. The beads by themself cannot understand that they are joined by a thread. By our own intellect, we may not understand the inter - dependency among each and everyone in the world, in an unseen way. The minute soul binds each and everyone in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To know it by experience, one need to surrender his life to a Sathguru. We are fortuned to have our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, in our presence. We need a Sathguru's preaching for self - development. The divine knowledge of Krishna Bhagavan is showered to the disciples by Our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma. This treasure of divine knowledge is of immense joy to one and all in the world. The chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, as given by our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, brings in us a sense of divine individuality and of divine uniqueness, in all walks of life. Chanting brings in us the divine qualities of inner harmony, peace, submissive toBhagavan's grace, calmness and others. The unconditional divine mercy of Krishna Bhagavan is described as KARUNYAM. The discourse on the KARUNYAM of Bhagavan Krishna is an elixir. One can drink this elixir of BHAGAVATH KARUNYAM, by listening to the divine preachings of our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma. The divine grace and the inner harmony hidden in Our Sathguru is a treasure to us. Any eager soul can tap this divine resource and make his/her life a blissful one. To accept the divine grace to one's heart full, the quality of submissiveness and determined faith are the basic requirements. The blessings of Sathguru, makes us humane and brings in us a sense of alertness, at the presence of Krishna Bhagavan, in all walks of life. The creation of Bhagavan is beautiful. The five basic elements of nature plays a vital role, in the creation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The thread, spread by the spider can very well account for this. The spreaded thread in visible form represents the land - living space. The secreting fluid which makes the net, resembles the water. The appearance of net in visible form as seen from out side, reflects the light and account for fire. The coming-in and going-out, and the force that keeps the phenomenon in a cycle represents the air, namely VAYU. The net that has been built, represents the relative position of a thing, in the outerspace too. The space that is not covered in this net, will become a part of outer sky representing the ETHER. For a particular net built on a particular place, the remaining space may act as a sky. For another net, that is built on some other place, this net and the surrounding places represents the sky (ether). We can see countless number of galaxies, each having its own planets and other celestial items. The planet earth in our milky way galaxy, represents one such net. So to us, the other galaxies represents the outer space. On a relative scale, for some other galaxy in outer space, this milky way galaxy and the surrounding air space will become as sky (ether). The position is relative, not of permanent one. The world relativity is termed as MAYA or ILLUSION. The external modifications in the form of shape, colour, relative position etc., are always misguiding. Our meditation should be one - pointed, towards the primordial source, namely Krishna Bhagavan (SUTHRADHARI). The divine knowledge of experiencing Krishna Bhagavan as the primoridial source, as imprinted in our minds, by the blessings of Our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma , needs to be glorified. We should be humble in seeking the blessings of Our Sathguru -Poojya Shree Shree Amma. We should surrender hundreds and hundreds of Radhekrishna Namam on to the divine feet of Krishna Bhagavan, for the boon of having Poojya Shree Shree Amma, in our presence.&lt;br /&gt;Vayu Bhagavan - a celestial Deva represents the power of air. We are paying homage to him, by means of divine sacrifices through the constant meditation of Nama Japam. The outer space, that is not apparent is called as DEVALOKAM, and is considered as the divine abode of celestial incarnations, who live in sky. The controller of that divine abode in outer sky (say in some other galaxy) is termed as INDRAN or DEVENDRAN. He rules that place. He acts as a controller of that outer space. We may not know, whether life exists or not, in outer space. We cannot always deem to condemn, the outer space life, as given in BHAGAWATHAM. We are not even advance enough to search about our own net, namely the milkyway galaxy. Then, we should strive very hard and work on it, for many hundreds of years to know the hidden secrets behind the outer space life, as said in BHAGAWATHAM. Some scientists ascertain this fact. They say " it may take many million light years of time, to reach the outer space." Even the present day scientists confirm that, there exists TIMELESSNESS, once after a certain height. It means, there exists a state of no time limit, say TIMELESSNESS. But this state of TIMELESSNESS is also relative, when compared to the Divine Leela's of Bhagavan Krishna, in creating all the worlds each of immense and infinite longivity and of a ever unsolved mystery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The five basic elements of nature are symbolically represented as Deva's viz earth (BHOOMA DEVI), Water (VARUNAN), fire (AGNI), Air (VAYU), Ether (INDRAN). The sacrifices done in the form of DEVA YAGNAM, makes us humble. The relative positionof our life, being constantly reminded, at the outset of these divine sacrifices. The inventions, improvements, advancements are in negligible quantity only. We need a broad mind to further our intellect to think beyond a very small circle of thoughts. Our life is short. Our reasoning should become broad and not narrow minded to discard everything that which is unreachable and unquestionable, by our own intellect. The divine majestic power of Krishna Bhagavan in creating countless number of galaxies and preserving the living sysem is infinite and enormous. Our position and life is relative only. With our small mind and short life span, we can only broaden our intellect and wisdom, to think astonishingly at the divine mercy of Krishna Bhagavan. Divinity is not against of Science. Divinity gives the totality of scientific advancements in all external and internal modifications and of all dimensions too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A famous scientist of our age, puts it in a nut shell as "Every thing is determined by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect as well as for the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust - we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper." - Albert Einstein. Krishna Bhagavan is the piper, who melodiously plays the flute. The divine music coming from the Bhagavan, synchronizes the worlds. We all can dance merrily intone with the divine melody of Krishna Bhagavan, as that of Gopi's. We are fortuned to have Our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, to guide us. The chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, as given by Our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, will bring in us harmony and we can merrily dance to the divine music of Krishna Bhagavan, synchronized to the divine VEDIC VIBRATIONS, reverberating in the cosmo's and lead a happy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let our life be filled with the blessings of Our Sathguru - Poojya Shree Shree Amma. Let our soul rejoice in the divine music, coming from the mouth of Krishna Bhagavan. Enjoy and dance merrily, by listening to the divine music of Krishna Bhagavan through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, till we continue in the next issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;(TO CONTINUE...)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-111564919950832997?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/111564919950832997/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=111564919950832997' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111564919950832997'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111564919950832997'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/05/bhikshu-geetham-7.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM - 7'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-111461801716100693</id><published>2005-04-27T23:14:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-12-13T16:33:37.373+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM -6</title><content type='html'>Bhagavan Krishna alone remains immortal. HE takes all the worlds filled with&lt;br /&gt;living and non-living things, into his abdomen and takes a deep rest. He&lt;br /&gt;remains as the single primordial source of all creation. All his creations are&lt;br /&gt;calmly kept as it is in his abdomen in a blissful way. The five basic elements&lt;br /&gt;of nature are air, water, land, fire and sky (ether). The air helps to maintain&lt;br /&gt;life in a proper manner. Everyone's life begins, grows for some years and&lt;br /&gt;finally one day, the life winds up. Till such time, the air was moving in and&lt;br /&gt;out of the body. But when he/she dies, the sensation of passage of air cannot&lt;br /&gt;be felt no more. The divine mercy of Bhagavan Krishna keeps the passage of air&lt;br /&gt;in and out of the body and one can sensibly feel it. Do we ever wonder at this&lt;br /&gt;divine mercy of Bhagavan Krishna? Bhagavan Krishna is showering the divine&lt;br /&gt;mercy and the inseperable unconditional divine love on to us. We are born to&lt;br /&gt;enjoy this divine comfort and happiness. Sense organs are created to enjoy the&lt;br /&gt;divine comfort. Bhagavan never created, tension and anxiety. To HIM every&lt;br /&gt;thing is happy and every one should be always happy. He is kind and merciful on&lt;br /&gt;to us. He is inseperable from us. Only HE can give a nourishing and pacifying&lt;br /&gt;healing touch of divine grace. He is within us. He is not away from us. His&lt;br /&gt;presence can be felt always. He constantly looks after us with a divine mercy.&lt;br /&gt;Bhagavan Krishna has the simplicity - SOWLABYAM . He is approachable in all&lt;br /&gt;possible relationships, as applicable to our state of mind. He can be&lt;br /&gt;approached as a friend, philosopher and guide, father, mother, brother, sister,&lt;br /&gt;child, lover, beloved, man of high caliber, trouble- shooter, pain remover,&lt;br /&gt;dearer soul, a trustable man or any kind of emotional relationship, that&lt;br /&gt;applies to us. Bhagavan and HIS mercy are infinite. The Vedic hymns, in praise&lt;br /&gt;of Bhagavan was divided into 4 by a RISHI called VEDA VYASAR. The four Veda's&lt;br /&gt;together with the 6 concomitant subdivisions (UPA ANGAM) are trying eloborately&lt;br /&gt;to explain at least a single divine quality of Bhagavan, namely the KARUNYAM -&lt;br /&gt;DIVINE MERCY. All the praising hymns come back with a failure, as they cannot&lt;br /&gt;explain it in totality. This praising of the divine mercy will still be&lt;br /&gt;inadequate, in the ages to come. The divine mercy of Bhagavan is infinite. It&lt;br /&gt;goes on and on, unstopped. The incarnation of Bhagavan in worldly visible form,&lt;br /&gt;as pleased by the prayer of devotee, showers the divine grace to one and all, in&lt;br /&gt;an easily accessible way. He takes human form. Some bestowed souls enjoy the HIS&lt;br /&gt;divine individuality and happiness. The Gopis are blessed to live in close&lt;br /&gt;proximity to Krishna Bhagavan and enjoy the divine happiness. The divine&lt;br /&gt;happiness as enjoyed by them, is beyond human words and emotions. The same can&lt;br /&gt;be enjoyed to one's heart full, in this present age also, through the chanting&lt;br /&gt;of Radhekrishna Namam, invoking the blessings of Poojya Shree Shree Amma. It is&lt;br /&gt;devoid of worldly attire and action. It is of utmost divine pleasure, beyond the&lt;br /&gt;reach and understanding of sensual emotions. Gopis enjoyed Krishna Bhagavan in&lt;br /&gt;human form during their life time itself. We are having this birth. We are&lt;br /&gt;fortunate to have Poojya Shree Shree Amma to bless us. With the blessings of&lt;br /&gt;Sathguru- Poojya Shree Shree Amma through the Nama Japam our life will be&lt;br /&gt;filled with divine happiness as that of the Gopis. The Gopis enjoyed their life&lt;br /&gt;to their heart's content. They led the life as per the wish of Bhagavan.&lt;br /&gt;Bhagavan has created this body in such a way to enjoy the divine happiness of&lt;br /&gt;chanting his name- Radhekrishna Namam and meditating on his divine form -&lt;br /&gt;BHAGAVATH RUPAM, which will be of ever-lasting beauty for all ages to come. The&lt;br /&gt;Sathguru preaches the glory of Radhekrishna Namam and the divine mercy&lt;br /&gt;(KARUNYAM) of Bhagavan. We are born to enjoy the divine happiness through the&lt;br /&gt;chanting. This life is precious. Each and every minute is precious. We are&lt;br /&gt;fortunate to utilize it for our own true divine joy. The hours that are spent&lt;br /&gt;on chanting the Radhekrishna Namam and listening to the Sathsangam (divine&lt;br /&gt;discourse) coming from a Sathguru are the time which we spent for our own true&lt;br /&gt;divine joy. Rest of the time, it is only bindings. We keep our self bound in&lt;br /&gt;iron chains. Our mind gets distracted. We look for some one who can give us&lt;br /&gt;true happiness devoid of selfishness. In such a pursuit, we start searching the&lt;br /&gt;noble qualities behind each and every one. In this search many golden years of&lt;br /&gt;life has been wasted. Left over time is short. But has anyone been successful&lt;br /&gt;in finding the noble one? NO.&lt;br /&gt;NOBLE HEART OF POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA IS VAST TO INVITE ONE AND ALL IN THE&lt;br /&gt;WORLD.&lt;br /&gt;The noble heart, devoid of selfishness is Krishna Bhagavan alone. He expects&lt;br /&gt;nothing from us. He is incomparable. The divine love surrendered at his lotus&lt;br /&gt;feet, brings in him, the true happiness. Bhagavan looks for only kind heart. He&lt;br /&gt;doesn't look for status or character. Bhagavan HIMSELF is of high status and&lt;br /&gt;poise character and is unmatchable to anyone. He is incomparable to worldly&lt;br /&gt;things. He does the role of creation, protection and destruction of all the&lt;br /&gt;worlds in a detatched way.&lt;br /&gt;He remains the ever-lasting living force, which keeps moving all the worldly&lt;br /&gt;things and He alone remains, when every thing in the world disappears and take&lt;br /&gt;refuge in his divine shelter, in his body. The creation looks for enjoying the&lt;br /&gt;divine happiness and sharing the same with one and all in the world. He&lt;br /&gt;protects the life. Innumerable oppurtunities comes in one's life to enjoy the&lt;br /&gt;divinity. Bhagavan is ready to accept us. His grace is showered on to us&lt;br /&gt;unconditionally. We may think or forget him. He always, thinks of uplifting the&lt;br /&gt;human beings towards divinity. He looks at us with care and comfort. This is the&lt;br /&gt;duty of Bhagavan. He makes HIMSELF humbler and simpler and finds each and every&lt;br /&gt;simple means to shower HIS divine joy to one and all in the world. This divine&lt;br /&gt;grace expands and one attains infinite divine joy known as ANANDAM. The humble&lt;br /&gt;and subtle form of Bhagavan is accessible and every one can enjoy his presence&lt;br /&gt;in an ordered way through the blessings of a Sathguru. All the worlds are kept&lt;br /&gt;in his abdomen as it is. He takes a deep meditation. He meditates to make the&lt;br /&gt;new creation a still more happier one. This goes on continually. We see the&lt;br /&gt;spider making its net out of the secreting fluid coming from its body, brought&lt;br /&gt;out from its own imagination of creation. The fluid comes from its mouth and&lt;br /&gt;neatly the net is spread. It lives there for some time. As per its own wish, it&lt;br /&gt;takes back the net, to its own body, through the mouth. It will build the net&lt;br /&gt;in some other place, even still more beautiful in shape, colour,etc than the&lt;br /&gt;earlier one. It also does the role of creation, protection and destruction and&lt;br /&gt;gives us the reminder about the uncertainity of our life and the divine power&lt;br /&gt;of Bhagavan.&lt;br /&gt;The external modifications resemble the worlds seen apparently from outside.&lt;br /&gt;The hidden inner thread makes the world visible. In Sanskrit, thread is called&lt;br /&gt;as SUTHRAM. The man behind the show is called as SUTHRADHARI, in Sanskrit. He&lt;br /&gt;spreads the thread and takes it back, at his own wish. The visible world is&lt;br /&gt;called as MAYA or illusion. The word Maya or illusion, should never be mistaken&lt;br /&gt;to our own decriments. The world appears in different forms. The thread coming&lt;br /&gt;from Bhagavan alone, makes this world sustainable. Bhagavan alone plays the&lt;br /&gt;secret role. We should not be carried away by external things. The thread is&lt;br /&gt;visible and apparent. But this thread alone is not the root cause. The&lt;br /&gt;misjudgement of root cause of creation to be the thread, will lead us to&lt;br /&gt;sentimental bindings in the form of I and MY attatchments and this illusion&lt;br /&gt;being named as MAYA. The net is of various shapes, colours, forms and is built&lt;br /&gt;in different places on various occassions. Our present galaxy and many other&lt;br /&gt;galaxies in the outer space too, vary with each other. They are different on&lt;br /&gt;seeing from out side. The divine power of Krishna Bhagavan binds them all. This&lt;br /&gt;divine power gives life to them. The spider brings in and takes back the thread.&lt;br /&gt;Bhagavan does the 3 roles of protection, creation, destruction. Spider is the&lt;br /&gt;root cause, not the appearing world, as seen by naked eye. The world is&lt;br /&gt;dynamic. The power of Bhagavan remains static and this will remain unchangeable&lt;br /&gt;even after many eras to come. As a fun play, worlds are created and kept as it&lt;br /&gt;is for some years. Then, they are once again taken back to their origin, namely&lt;br /&gt;the divine shelter of Bhagavan Krishna.&lt;br /&gt;The man behind the show- SUTHRADHARI, is Krishna Bhagavan. Meditating on the&lt;br /&gt;lotus feet of Bhagavan Krishna through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam as&lt;br /&gt;blessed by our Sathguru- Poojya Shree Shree Amma, one can easily move towards&lt;br /&gt;the path of divine happiness with ease. The divine will and the divine mercy of&lt;br /&gt;Krishna Bhagavan makes the world a blissful one and interconnected with other&lt;br /&gt;galaxies. Bhagavan Krishna says in BHAGAVATH GEETHA,&lt;br /&gt;" All the worlds are connected to me, just like the beads that are&lt;br /&gt;connected by a unseen thread, that runs across each and every one of&lt;br /&gt;them."&lt;br /&gt;Maththa: paratharam naanyath Kinchidhathi Dhananjaya&lt;br /&gt;Mayi Sarvamitham Protham SoothrE Manighana iva&lt;br /&gt;-Bhagavath Geetha chapter 7 Slokam 7.&lt;br /&gt;"There is nothing else besides ME, Arjuna. Like clusters of yarn-beads&lt;br /&gt;formed by knots on a thread, all this is threaded on ME."&lt;br /&gt;WORLDS ARE NOT CREATED BY NATURE ALONE. NATURE IS THE EXTERNAL MODIFICATION OF&lt;br /&gt;THE CREATION. BHAGAVAN KRISHNA PLAYS THE HIDDEN ROLE. NATURE DOES ALL ITS&lt;br /&gt;BEAUTIFUL CREATIONS IN SILENCE ONLY. UNDER THE SILENCE OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN,&lt;br /&gt;NATURE SPREADS THE WINGS. GREAT SOULS KEEP THEIR LIFE IN SILENCE, WITHOUT&lt;br /&gt;REVEALING THEIR TRUE IDENTITY.&lt;br /&gt;THE BLESSINGS OF OUR SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA, MAKES DIVINE PRESENCE&lt;br /&gt;OF BHAGAVAN IN OUR LIFE, IN TOTAL SILENCE, KEEPING US IN A PROTECTIVE UNSEEN&lt;br /&gt;SHIELD.&lt;br /&gt;THIS DIVINE SHIELD PROTECTS OUR LIFE. LET US GO BY THE SAYING OF OUR SATHGURU- POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG KI JAI&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(TO CONTINUE...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-111461801716100693?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/111461801716100693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=111461801716100693' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111461801716100693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111461801716100693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/04/bhikshu-geetham-6.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM -6'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-111331632083334546</id><published>2005-04-12T22:40:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-12-13T17:08:01.180+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM -5</title><content type='html'>The first one is Deva Yagnam. The sacrifices that we are doing, to please thedivine celestial Devas, who take these sacrifices in invisible form, representsDeva Yagnam. By reading these lines, some one may laugh at the notion ofinvisible form. But, it should be remembered that the orbital concept, conceptof quantum theory, the invention of electricity all were based on the intuitionof invisible form. The five basic elements of nature namely water, fire, land,air, sky (ether) symbolically represents the Devas.The land is the living space without which we can't make any humancivilization. The land patiently accepts the evil things, done by us on to it.We plough hardly and hit at it. We produce harmful fertilizers and sow seeds onit. We are draining the energy of land. But, the land is merciful to accept allour evil things. So the land has been described as BHOOMI MATHA (Mother Land)or BHOOMA DEVI. It has been represented as divine mother full of mercy, which showers all the grace on to each and every body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The water is the elixir of life. It makes human life sustainable. The waterhelps in the growth of plants and nourishes the animal kingdom, inclusive ofman. It rejuvenates the entire eco system. The mighty ocean is always areservoir for human life sustainability. The rivers coming from all directions,confluence in the ocean. The ocean has enormous power. If it wishes, it can comeout of shore and destroy property and life. The supreme divine control ofBhagavan, keeps it in tact. A small wave can also kill thousands and thousandsof people, in just a few seconds. Then we can imagine the power that is hiddenin the ocean. The controller of wind, in carrying the waves of the ocean, hasbeen described as VARUNAN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can astonishingly, imagine his power. He is thecarrier of wind force, for raising the wave and then keeping them back tonormal. The ocean keeps its boundaries intact and always remains calm withoutshowing its true identity. It gives huge amount of beneficial things. We arepaying homage to this natural element, in the form of prayer done to thecelestial Deva, namely VARUNAN, who is representing the hidden latent forcebehind this unsolved mystery of keeping calm always. The fire gives us light. No one likes darkness. No one deserves sorrows andsufferings. Every one wants to lead a happy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fire is untouchable. Itburns each and everything. It can convert vast things(buildings,stocks,wealth,etc) into ashes in no time. The fire is utilized forgood and bad purposes, as per the wishes of the people. The light emanatingfrom the source gives brightness. Under this brightness, people of righteouspath spend their time in praying for the welfare of mankind. Under the samelight, some people waste their time in unwanted thoughts. The fire remains awitness. But, then fire also keeps its power under control.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It never goes against the righteous path. By the power of supremacy, it never dominates anyone. It never threatens any body. It maintains its calmness in following thepath of Bhagavan. It abides by the divine plan and control of Bhagavan. Thepower of fire is incomparable. The sun is the ever emanating source of light.In the galaxy, we can see hundreds and hundreds of things, each having thepower of light and fire. The fire and the light energy coming from them, makes our living in a fruitful way. The sun is radiating fire and energy, by thecombining of elements within it. This phenomenon is going on since time immemorial, even before the scientists arrived at the term NUCLEAR FUSION.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can give, only names, to the phenomena that are already in existence from timeimmemorial in the mighty nature. The fire giving light and energy to us hasbeen represented by a Deva. AGNI is the celestial Deva, who takes the authorityof controlling this enormous power, and does his role, in accordance with thedivine righteous path of Bhagavan Krishna. The air that we breathe forms the basic resource. Without the air there can beno human existence. The air that we inhale is called 'PRANA VAYU'. Now, scientist have termed it as oxygen. We know the term Scientist. Scientists ofVedic age, were called as RISHIS. Considering the aspect of invention, words ofany language can be accepted. Why can't we accept SANSKRIT, FOR ITS UTILITY VALUE? IT WILL SOUND HARMLESS, ON THE PURVIEW OF WELFARE OF MANKIND, AS AWHOLE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The air that we breathe exhale was termed as 'APANA VAYU'. Nowadays, wecall it as Carbon-di-oxide. Whethercarbon-di-oxide or oxygen or by whatever bigterminology we name it they exist since time immemorial. We are just giving thename as we wish to call them. The air makes the life moving. The air goes inand out from our body till our life ends. During the sleep in night, do wetime and again wake up and check whether air is passing in or not? No way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We think, it is spontaneous. When a stoppage comes in the form of suffocation,there we call it as a disease and sort for immediate remedy. We become deafears to the words of Bhagavan in the form of air, till we are reminded in theform of disease. When every thing is O.K. , we feel that, we are the best andevery thing that are happening within our body and outside, to be spontaneousdaily routine.The hindrance or sudden stoppage of some natural phenomena, makesus realize their significance. Nothing is so simple, as created by Bhagavan.The unswerve, undefeatable divine command of Bhagavan Krishna, plays the secretrole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;INFINITE NUMBER OF DIVINE SECRETS ARE KEPT HIDDEN WITHIN US. WE ARE FORTUNATE INGETTING THE BLESSINGS OF POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA. WE SHOULD HUMBLY ACCEPT THEDIVINE WILL OF BHAGAVAN AND LEAD OUR LIFE HAPPILY, WITHOUT DISTRACTION. GURUJIAMMA'S BLESSINGS BE WITH US ALWAYS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATH SANG KI JAI !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JAI SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA !&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-111331632083334546?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/111331632083334546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=111331632083334546' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111331632083334546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111331632083334546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/04/bhikshu-geetham-5.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM -5'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-111193926169243447</id><published>2005-03-27T23:33:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-12-13T17:03:29.826+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BIKSHU GEETHAM -4</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;We can humbly accept that, BHAGAWATHAM works well now also. This greedy man isonly a pictorial symbolic representation. Just imagine - a state devoid ofemotions. No one is here to share our ideas. No one is listening to us. No oneis caring to comfort us. The family that is the shelter, behind us, itselfbecomes barren,devoid of human emotions. There you can see children, always saying " I am alone. I am all alone. I am left with nobody. No one understands my feeling. No one is here to listen to my sorrows. What I can do with money? Neither father nor mother is accompanyingme. I am not receiving the love from my mother. I am not receiving the kindadvice from my father. Only servant maids are feeding me. They are only people,who work for money. How can they replace my parents? They are paid to do service. They will work, in proportion to their wages. How can I expect true love from them? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;I am left alone. Parents go in the morning for their business and they return late in the night. Even when they come at night, they simply greet me and once again travel somewhere to improve their business circle. They are busy. They don't have the mind to spare some time with me. Even if theyspent so, there also their mind shows only business ethics and other worldlythings devoid of pure love. They are DIPLOMATIC. But are they LOVABLE? I am nota servant maid or a military soldier, who abides by the orders of a senior man.My life is not a military life, filled with full of rules and regulations. I ama young child. I am a growing adult. I look for only people, who can show on me,true love. I want atleat some body, who want to speak to me for myself. Everyone come and goes. They speak. They even praise at me. But, they are flatulent.Their motive behind these words are monetary. They are not pacifying my inneremotions and sorrows. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;They look at me as a successor of a mighty wealthy man.Shall I find a right person, who can show me a way to come out of thisloneliness? Shall I find, the right one? Oh! No! I am perplexed, tensed, andthis loneliness kills me. I am searching for a right soul, who can calm me downand pacify me."This loneliness bites each and every one, in each and every walk of life. We areleft alone. The only companion, who can always be a friend, philosopher andguide and who can listen to our sorrows is BHAGAVAN RADHEKRISHNA . BhagavanKrishna is inseperable from us. He is the soul. We are the body.The soul isdearer to the body. So, in the same way, Krishna Bhagavan is the soul, residingin each and every body. This body is the divine abode of Krishna Bhagavan.Krishna Bhagavan has the SOWLABYAM- SIMPLICITY. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;He can be treated according toour feelings. He can be considered as a father, mother, friend, master, lover,beloved, brother, sister, relative, philosopher and guide, pacifying force, sinremover, trouble shooter and the soul that is inseperable from us. Krishna Bhagavan looks for pure love only. He doesn't care about anybody's background. Under his eyes every one are equal. When we are deprived and felttortured by loneliness, we can always seek the help from him. This companion is a best companion. He is the true friend, who keeps the secret always a secret.He is the lovable one, who showers unconditional love, to the calling fromanybody. If some one calls Him, Krishna Bhagavan at once listens and solves the problem. Krishna Bhagavan immediately gives a pacifying reply, which we canlisten and accept. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;BUT, HOW MANY OF US ARE LISTENING TO THE WORDS OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, WHOCONSTANTLY ACCOMPANIES US AT EACH AND EVERY STAGE? TO LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF KRISHNA BHAGAVAN, WHO CAN KILL THIS EVERLASTING RIVALOF LONELINESS, WE NEED A SATHGURU, WHO CAN GUIDE US TO THAT MOTIVE. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;The Sathguru's grace is umatchable. They are the representative of KrishnaBhagavan, in human form acting as a true messenger of Krishna Bhagavan. Theycarry with them, the divine message of Krishna Bhagavan. By listening to thedivine message of Krishna Bhagavan, we can free our mind. The Sathguru givesManthropadesam. OUR SATHGURU - POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA GIVES 'RADHEKRISHNA' NAMAM. TheRadhekrishna Namam, as given by our Sathguru is the protection and and this kills the loneliness. The Gopis never felt the loneliness. To them, Krishna Bhagavan was always a companion. They could listen to the inner voice of Krishna Bhagavan, which kept them going on with their routines. ThePremai - unconditional love, is showered on to us by the divine grace of RADHAMATHA. The supreme divine filled joy is enjoyed by living with KrishnaBhagavan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;The Krishna Namam gives ANANDAM - true divine joy and happiness,devoid of sorrows. The 'Radhekishna'Namam gives the blessings from Radha Matha- divine mother and Krishna Pitha (divine father). Radhekrishna is theeverloving parent to each and every one. This parent will be always free. Even though, they are the mighty emperors whorule and protect all the worlds, they have the patience to listen to ouremotions. We are the successor of this mighty emperor, namely Krishna Bhagavan.Why should we worry? We are proud and alwys be proud to call ourselves as thesuccessor of RadheKrishna. They are inseperable from us. Wherever we go, Radhekrishna will always accompanyus. When we face any problem, we can always seek the help from BhagavanRadhekrishna. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;The Radhekrishna Namam, as given by our Sathguru, is a boon tous. It is like an opening gateway to mukthi - liberation , liberation from allbindings which keep us restless. The Sathguru is the guiding force, who can guide us to our true individuality. Our divine parents, Radhekrishna are the mighty emperors of all the worlds. Whyshould we look for these worldly people with cruel and crooked mentality? TheSathguru is here to guide us. The chanting of Radhekrishna Namam is a pacifier,which can remove loneliness and keep our self in close connection with BhagavanRadhekrishna. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Coming back to the story...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;This greedy man was always working and toiling very much. The children started developing a sense of hatred and dejection from their side. The children alsostarted doing unwanted things. They also cheated this greedy man. Thay gave layexcuses, made a false paly to cheat him. His wife also started cheating him.This greedy man had given unbearable sorrows and sufferings to his familymembers. Even with all the luxurious things, nothing seemed worthwhile. Nothinggave them true joy. Nothing pacified their sorrows. A man, who does not go by the saying of a Sathguru, in spending his time and money, at least sparingly indivine things, will always be surrounded by the fear of people cheating, byundue means. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Bhagavan Radhekrishna is the lovable companion. By showering ourlove on him, through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam , we can be safe fromall upcoming endangers. We can be freed from all kinds of fear. This fearalways bites each and every one.

But for allthese problems, the mind is the only root cause. This mind only gives us lotsand lots of problems. We shower our love on each and every one. We want tosacrifice our own feelings, emotions and we want to strive hard for making people around us happy . We toil around day and night. We look for all thethings to end in a happy way. We want to keep our self happy. We want theatmosphere to be conducive and happy always. All the human actions andendeavors are focused towards the centric point of ‘HAPPINESS’. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;We want to enjoy the happiness from each and every thing, in a best possible way. We work a lot, to manipulate the actions of nature and to combat it in a fruitful way,to make the life artificially, a happier one. We want to create apseudo-natural system (false system as that of nature), which is of higher happiness, as imagined by our self. The present day world has got more luxury.The inventions in a way make the living smooth, comfortable and flexible to runour normal life too. The man-hours are much saved. The actions which were done by travelling very long distances, seemingly tougher tasks are now madeeasier. The world has become a global village. The time, space, money, etc., are made easy. We are provided with much free time. In the ancient times man had to toil a lot. He had to spend many man-hours together with the help ofhundreds and hundreds of people each contributing their precious time. But now man has invented machines which minimizes the time to a great extent. The time is precious. The invention of machines has changed our life style. We can do things easily with least efforts. This can save our time and energy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Bhagavan is allowing these things to happen freely. But what are we doing with those saved time and energy? We are spending much of our time in T.V. programs and entertainments only. Otherwise, people who are anxious and eager to improve their caliber keep on going with their business round the clock, forsaking everything. They leave every thing. They become man-machines devoid of human emotions. They keep themselves vital and active, just like lubricating parts of a machine. They never have time to speak with children, wife, parents, friends,relatives, leave alone visiting holy places of Sathguru, where one can get thedivine happiness through the Sathguru’s preachings. They go to only ManagementGurus, who teach management skills to improve charisma and to mint money.Whether they are acquiring money or not, that is a different issue. But,definitely for the want of money, every one is losing inner harmony and peace.They become restless and their life is filled with tension,worries and anxiety.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;All human endeavors aim in making the world a better place to live in. Theyhave shrunk the world. Bridged the rivers. Connected each and every nook andcorner of the world through Web. They have started to conquer the space. Theyhave started searching for life in outer planets. Produced medicines, which cankeep one self without food for months together, as taken by astronauts who go inspaceships.They are all trying to create a Pseudo- Natural system of ever lastingbeneficiary to one and all. But this is a never-ending story. Even after allthe inventions, even after shrinking time, space, world, man could not get truehappiness. He wants to make the people around him happy. But the inventions havehelped him to shrink the parameters only. They never gave him the true happiness. This does not mean that Science contradicts Divinity or money is abad thing, which should be forsaken. It is not the amount of money that counts,but our attachment with that money, always makes a matter. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;You can be an emperorof the world. But by reaching a Sathguru, who can show you the true KrishnaBhakthi, you can still keep your self, unaffected by the wealth, titles, postetc. A Sathguru will show us the true path of Krishna Bhakthi. They will leadus from darkness to light. Bhagavan as enjoyed by us gives the worldlypleasure. The luxury, pleasure, happiness, wealth, as enjoyed by us depends onthe actions performed by us. The Sathguru removes the illusion or Maya of ‘Iness and my ness. We are just tools in the hands of Bhagavan. It is Bhagavanwho only does good things to the mankind, by keeping our body as a tool. Thepleasures enjoyed by being an Emperor of the entire world, is also temporary.Not by any wealth or treasure, we can get the true divine happiness of KrishnaBhakthi. The divine Krishna Bhakthi is incomparable. After all, HE is thecreator of the entire universe. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;The wealth of Bhagavan is enormous. His wealthis incomparable. Just imagine the countless number of stars, which are seen onthe sky. Man has now only able to sent Spaceships to Mars. But, in space, wecan see countless number of galaxies, each having lakhs of planets and some ofwhich are highly radiant and powerful than the sun. The Bhagavatham also givesa vivid explanation of our galaxies and the divine Vibhuthi’s (nature ofBhagavan) in detail. Man’s expeditions and inventions are only trying to atleast know, a little bit of fraction of divine Leela’s of Bhagavath Vibhuthi’s.Bhagavan is mercy enough to show, a minute fraction of his divine Leela’s(divine glorious enormous power displayed in visible and invisible form)through the Scientific inventions.But, at times man imagines him self to be a Superior who can conquer each andeverything in an artificial way. Man can become god like. But not by artificial means. He can become like that of Bhagavan, through the Krishna Bhakthi alone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;The money earned, innovations, inventions and endeavors done to reveal thehidden secrets of Bhagavan are only in small quantum, in comparison to the mighty unsolved hidden mysteries of Bhagavan’s Vibhuthi, namely nature. The life span of human being is precious but short lived. During this period, we are created by Bhagavan to enjoy the divine happiness. This body is uniquely created by Bhagavan to enjoy the life happily . We are not born to live in sorrow, tension, anxiety, frustration, restlessness etc. We are born, only to enjoy the divine happiness each and every minute. Tension, anxiety,frustration, restlessness are all due to improper understanding of life. Wetake life in a way as we wish to be, but forget the hidden divine secret andhappiness in each and every obstacle that affect our life. But to know about the divine secrets of life, we need a Sathguru, who can guide us to thatmotive. We take lessons from the school teachers. We learn scientific skills from scientists and management skills through management masters. There we never even imagined raising our voice against them. We are simply abiding totheir sayings. By believing in their words, and accepting them all to be true,we are marching in official life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;But, when we take our life, for our innerhappiness and peace why we are not accepting a Sathguru who can guide us tothat motive? For making livelihood, we are accepting the norms and customs ofthe world. For enjoying true divine happiness and to feel the true divine joy,we can be free to accept a Sathguru, who can teach us the true path of KrishnaBhakthi. Our life is filled with divine happiness. Each and every minute is ablissful one. We are not born to suffer, toil, shed tears and sweat, get ourmind perplexed, tensed ultimately leading to nervousness and restlessness. We are born to enjoy the life properly. Each and every stage in life, our joyshould multiply with the divine grace of Bhagavan Radhekrishna, through thechanting of Radhekrishna Namam. The Nama Japam that is chanted continuously will lead us to Mukthi - liberation. Liberation from all bindings, which keeps us restless. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Here, this greedy man always found himself restless. He kept his mind, occupied with hundreds and hundreds of things. This binding becomes a permanent one and we struggle a lot to come out of it. This man was having a cruel character. He never gave, any money to any body. For people who are cruel, who don’t give and spend money in the righteous path, through the preachings of a Sathguru; the life becomes a permanent headache. This man imposed his principles of misery to the people around him. He never allowed hissons, daughters, wife, relatives to come and enjoy, happily in an occasion or two. He kept himself confined. He became like a mighty monster always minting money and minting more money and keeping them as a treasure. He never allowed any body to take control over it. Seeing his behavior, every one started to hate him. On his face, people praised him. They praised him for the money they were going to get from him as wages. But, on his back, every one despised him.Like a latent fire (hidden fire) in each and every one’s mind, there lied a constant hatred and jealously towards this greedy man. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;The servants wanted tocheat him. They did so, as and when time and opportunity came. The servantsstarted cheating him. They exaggerated their work, postponed their work, gavelay excuses etc., and asked for more money from him to complete the task. Forthe want of money, to run the show, he was forced to pay higher wages. Thisgreedy man cheated others. He never spent at least a penny, for divine holythings through a Sathguru. Not even a small amount of his wealth wassurrendered at the feet of a Sathguru, who can utilize it for the welfare ofmankind, through the spreading of Bhakthi. He was neither beneficial to him,nor to the society. His wealth not even served his family. The children werelooking for the fatherly love. He imagined that he was toiling round the clock,to make a huge amount of money, which would be a savior of life for his cominggenerations. But, the present life is gone. Even when he spoke with his wife ,it always ended in business transactions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;DOESN’T THIS RESEMBLE THE PRESENT DAY MACHINE WORLD?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...RADHEKRISHNA...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;(TO CONTINUE..)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-111063394801367396?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/111063394801367396/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=111063394801367396' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111063394801367396'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/111063394801367396'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/03/bhikshu-geetham-3.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM -3'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-110951706656339282</id><published>2005-02-28T00:04:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-02-28T00:50:44.336+09:00</updated><title type='text'>BHIKSHU GEETHAM -2</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;BHIKSHU GEETHAM –UDHAVA MUKTHI&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Sathguru cleanses the sins and evils by means of Nama Japam. The Sathguru removes the illusion of ‘I ness and ‘my ness from our mind. The Nama Japam – chanting of Radhekrishna Namam and the divine mercy of Bhagavan Radhekrishna, with the divine blessings of Sathguru can bring in, wonders in our life. To this, neither our chanting nor we are responsible. It is only the power of Radhekrishna Namam and the blessings of Sathguru that brings in us, the divinity which lead us to success. Without the Sathguru’s blessings and the Manthropadesam – Radhekrishna Namam as given by Sathguru, nothing is possible. Krishna Bhagavan tells the story of a Brahmin who turned his life in to a true divine filled one. From the state of ordinary greedy man, he entered in to a true state of austerity, abandoning each and every luxury. Once upon a time in a place called &lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;AVANTHI DESAM&lt;/span&gt;, there lived a Brahmin. He was a mighty landlord. He was doing many other business and made substantial income from each and every business. He was fully aimed at minting money, minting more money and so on. He performed all kind of tactics and gimmicks and minted money like any thing. He became a mighty wealthy man. He was unfortunate. A Sathguru did not guide him. He never had any kind of desire for true inner harmony and peace. He was carried away in enjoying the worldly pleasures of sensual things. He was found of wealth, enjoying luxuries. For the minting of money, he toiled a lot. For night and day, he worked strenuously. During the young years, for making more and more money, he worked round the clock. For the sake of work, he missed his food, rest, inner peace etc., and all the necessary things for any one’s life. The basic things in accordance with nature are food, rest, inner harmony and peace, happy life. When money is in abundance, they should be utilized for the divine purpose. The money earned, when surrendered to a Sathguru, for performing divine things, will make our life a happier one, however small the sum may be. Bhagavan looks only a true and noble heart and not the quantum of money. The offerings, however small may be in money or value, when done with divine filled inner acceptance, will always reach the lotus feet of Bhagavan. Bhagavan is giving everything to us. He gives us food, shelter, dress, happy life, supporting people in the form of father, mother, sister, brother, relatives, friends, son, daughter, son-in law, daughter-in law etc., and Bhagavan allocates good food, sound sleep, true happiness to each and every one. But only those who are fortuned to get a Sathguru are leading the life in the way, as wished by Bhagavan. Rest of the world, just moves. Just moves from day to night and once again from night to day. Only night and day goes. No use of enjoying Night and Day, as given by Bhagavan, and as wished by Bhagavan in his divine filled joy. This wealthy man never utilized his money for divine things through a Sathguru. He never enjoyed his family life, happily. He kept himself a miser. For the want of more wealth, he even started to restrict the necessary enjoyments and entertainments. He becomes very strict and selfish to save each and every penny. Everything is stored and dumped in plenty. But, nothing was enjoyed. Neither he had time nor he had the mind to enjoy the things as bought by him. He kept himself occupied round the clock. He become perplexed, tensed, filled with full of inner agony and hidden sorrows. But he gave a false smile on his face. To carry on the show as a wealthy proud man, he made a show off as a happy enthusiastic man. He kept himself fully occupied, not to enjoy food, not to enjoy sleep, not to spend time with family, not to outstations of divine places of Sathguru’s, nothing and nothing stopped him. Nothing stopped him from becoming a workaholic, who works greedily night and day to mint money only. But, the money, which he fetched by toiling bight and day, never kept him calm. It only paved way for further wandering leading to agony and sorrow. He keeps on moving from one place to another and from one thing to another in search of money. His family life too became miserable. Living without luxuries is not miserable. Having all the luxuries but not able to enjoy them in a true proper way, is of course very &lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;MISERABLE&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;It is like a man, who is sent away from a meal served with delicious items. He takes the delicious item nearer to the mouth. At that time, some one stops him from taking it. He is sent out with starved stomach filled with full of irresistible temptation. Having all the luxuries, but not the time and mind to enjoy them, is really very miserable. His family members too get affected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here this wealthy man gives much trouble to his family members, servants, and to the people who came for help. He rejected the Sadhu’s who come for Bhiksha (begging done for the purification of mankind, through the chanting of Namam- Nama Pracharam.) He neglected each and every one, who came for help. He never performed any divine Bhajan’s with a Sathguru, to please the Deva’s thereby bringing peace and prosperity to himself. He sucked a huge amount of work from the servants and gave them lower wages. He toiled them a lot. He minted huge amount of money through them, but never dispersed the money that is due to them for their extra labor. Thus he became a trouble -maker to himself and to the surroundings, namely wife, children, religious righteous people- Sadhu’s, divine boon giving Deva’s, divine holy people who come on pilgrimage, servants etc., A man who is not fortuned to have a Sathguru, guiding to the true path of Krishna Bhakthi becomes a trouble to himself and to the surroundings and to the mankind as a whole. This Brahmin will later on divert himself in to a poise pure divine filled Sadhu. Here a greedy person, who found of only money and who forsakes all the divine pleasures as bestowed by Bhagavan is represented in a single character, in the drama (drama of life) as a Brahmin wealthy man. This does not deals with religion, caste, or any kind of sect. It is a symbolic representation of greedy people who go after only money, and suffering from restlessness, tension, anxiety. The people who think, money is the only resort, and the final resort, and through money alone, we can get all kind of happiness means, they are the people who are represented in this character.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In his house, he never performed any divine things as that of organizing Sathsangam –Listening to the Preaching’s of a Sathguru, and listening to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan. He never tasted the blessings coming from a Sathguru. He never spent at least a day, with the holy divine people Sadhu’s –Sathguru. He never even imagined in his mind about the divinity and the divine mercy of Bhagavan. His words, not even out of trembling, uttered the divine name of Bhagavan – Namely Namam. This body, which is the divine abode of Bhagavan, residing in our self is not always looked with care. The body is destroyable. It is temporary only. But, this body is a boon. Within this body, lies the ever joy giving Bhagavan. To enjoy the Bhagavath Anandham (divine happiness got by Krishna Bhakthi through Nama Japam), this body is the only tool. Without this body means, no one can enjoy the divine joy of Bhagavan. So this body and this life is a big treasure that we can always enjoy in a divine filled way, to our heart full. We are not burn to lead tension filled life. We are not born to just think only about the sins that are performed. We are born only to enjoy this present life happily through the chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, as given by our &lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Sathguru – Poojya Shri Shri Amma.&lt;/span&gt; We are born to live. We are born to live in a true divine filled joyous state only. With these eyes, we can see the Darshan (divine sight) of Sathguru, who can shower the Krishna Bhakthi on to us. Eyes can see the divine Leela Avatharam’s of Bhagavan. This tongue can taste the sweetness of Nama Japam. The nose can smell the fragrance coming from the flowers that are surrendered at the divine feet of Bhagavan. With this ear, we can listen to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan from the words of a Sathguru. And this preaching, received from a Sathguru, namely Sathsangam is of utmost beneficiary. The Sathsangam enjoyed for half a minute from a true Sadhu – Sathguru, can always lead us to Mukthi – Liberation. The Manthropadesam –Radhekrishna as given by our Sathguru –Poojya Shri Shri Amma is only for a &lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;fraction of second.&lt;/span&gt; This Radhekrishna Namam is the protection for us. The Sathsangam enjoyed for even a very small amount of time, say half of a minute, can also lead to mukthi. &lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Here the Manthropadesam given by Sathguru is of very short duration. But this is an opening gateway to mukthi.&lt;/span&gt; With the ears, we can listen to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan. The true divine joy got by listening to Sathsangam is incomparable. With the hands and legs, we can do humble service to Bhagavan and the Sathguru, who has shown us the true path of Krishna Bhakthi. Thus all the parts of the body are of supreme usefulness in enjoying, each and every happiness, of Bhagavan. Bhagavan has created our body only for enjoying true divine joy, in all the possible ways. All his creations namely eye, ear, nose, tongue, mouth, mind, hands, legs, and all the organs are made uniquely to enjoy the divine happiness. Just imagine without this body. No eyes means how come we can see Bhagavan. The Bhagavan’s colors, gestures, all his glories changes from time to time and we need &lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;1000 eyes and not of 2 eyes,&lt;/span&gt; to see the divine beauty of Bhagavan Radhekrishna. Without nose, how come we can smell? The fragrance got by scents, are of no use. The fragrances coming from Thulasi (tulsi), which are surrendered at the divine feet of Bhagavan, are of supreme one. By accepting our self to a Sathguru, and through constant chanting of Radhekrishna Namam, we can smell the real fragrance of Bhagavan. Without the tongue and mouth how come we can taste the happiness of Nama Japam? For this Kali Yuga (our present life), the Nama Sankeerthanam (praising loudly the Namam of Bhagavan) is the only refuge, which can lead us to Mukthi – liberation. Without tongue, how can we chant, loudly? Without mouth and tongue, how come we praise loudly in singing loudly the glory of Bhagavan’s Namam? The tongue is created to taste the sweetness of Nama Japam. The mouth is created to sing loudly in praise of Bhagavan’s Namam namely, Nama Sankeerthanam. This alone can bring us true inner joy and true divine happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind is the best thing, which is created by Bhagavan. This mind is the root cause for Bhandham (binding) and Moksham (liberation) too. People, all say, “My mind is tensed. My mind is filled with agony. No one understands me. No one understands my mentality. No one understands my inner feelings. No one is caring to listen to my mind. My mental tension is unbearable. Who knows about my mental agony, which I am facing now? Every one comes and goes. They laugh and pass the comments as they wish. Let them be in my position, and in my mindset. Then only they can appreciate my problem. We can listen to all these words from each and every one. Even from a school kid going to school, in the age of 2 or 3 years or even say one and a half year old too, we can hear the word &lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;‘TENSION’&lt;/span&gt; coming from their mouth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA..

It elaborately deals with accepting the insults caused by others, as the blessings in disguise. Even for the holy people (Sadhu’s), the insults caused by people of crude and crooked mentality is unbearable. The world usually starts ill-treating the true Sadhu’s. Without knowing their true identity, people thinking themselves as people of high status, starts insulting at the true Sadhu’s. Udhavar is a very great devotee of Krishna Bhagavan. Krishna Bhagavan preached him about the divine qualities, which can make a man to become godlike in nature. Udhavar asked, “Oh! Bhagavan, the insults and deprive caused by people of crude and crooked mentality is unbearable. In this regard, I am having a very strong doubt about this illusion of insult. You are the right person, who can clear all my doubts. I want to know about the motive, attitude, severity of this kind of Guna (character) namely, patience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To this Krishna Bhagavan replied, “ Dear student of Brihaspathi (Guru for Deva’s), the question asked by you is of good to all. The insults caused by crude and crooked people, by means of their words, actions is unbearable to calm down, by one’s own sustained efforts. The pain caused by the wounding coming from the bad words of cruel people is unbearable in comparison to the physical pain caused by them. The external wound may get cured. But the internal wound caused by the hurting, insults, bad words of cruel people will always leave a scar in our mind. This scar remains a permanent wounding. The pain caused by this insult is much more than physical suffering. Absolutely, keeping patience in the midst of insults, hurting, is a tough task. Let me tell you the story of a young revered Brahmin saint. The word Bhikshu means a saint, who accepts the offerings as given by others in replace to the divine glory of Bhagavan, which is showered by him to one and all in the world. The work done by him is Nama Pracharam. He preaches the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan and makes the people around him filled with divine joy. He carries with him nothing, except an unquenchable, undefeatable, un-surmountable treasure namely, the Bhagavath Bhakthi. The Bhagavath Bhakthi carried by him is incomparable to any worldly things. The true saint keeps in him bounded the Bhagavan. The Bhagavan creates the worldly things. He is omnipresent, omnipotent, all pervasive, all-powerful, who only gives and nourishes the entire world. A true devotee of Bhagavan, by his un-swerved meditation of Nama Japam and seeking the divine Anugragham, keeps himself one with the Bhagavan always. The Bhagavan is all pervasive and nothing can keep him bounded. But, Bhagavan is kept bounded by the unconditional divine love- Premai, as shed by true devotee. The all-pervasive, uncontrollable Bhagavan keeps himself bounded with the true devotee’s heart. The true Mahatma’s heart is fully occupied by the Nama Japam of Bhagavan and he never lets anyone to enter into it. With the blessings and Manthropadesam got form a Sathguru, one’s mind is allotted a seat to take Bhagavan into his body. True Mahatma’s heart is filled with only Bhagavan. All his actions are aimed at making people, to understand the glory of Nama Japam and the divine mercy of Bhagavan, namely Karunyam, which is showered unconditionally on to us. The Bhagavan and the Bhaktha’s becomes inseparable from each other. For the sake of a true Bhaktha, Bhagavan is ready to leave the entire divine abode of him, namely Vaikundam. All the Bhagavath Avatharam’s (incarnations of Bhagavan in various forms, to save the good people and to destroy the evil things) are only for the divine unconditional love of Bhaktha’s. The unconditional divine love –Premai and unconditional surrender to Bhagavan through Nama Japam – Saranagathi, as done by the true Bhaktha, keeps Bhagavan himself to take incarnations. All the Avatharam’s of Bhagavan are only for the Bhaktha’s to enjoy the divine mercy of Bhagavan in various forms. Bhagavan becomes inseparable from Bhaktha’s. A true devotee of Bhagavan keeps his mind fully devoted to Bhagavan through the chanting of Namam. He leaves everything. He doesn’t care for any luxuries, or any royal majestic powers or mystical powers. He even abandons the four kind of Mukthi- Moksham –Liberation.&lt;br /&gt;1) SARUPYA – RUPAM – Becoming in shape as that of Bhagavan. Taking the shape of Bhagavan. (Shape)&lt;br /&gt;2) SAMIBYA – SAMEEBAM – Proximity – being in close connection or living nearer to Bhagavan. (Nearer to Bhagavan)&lt;br /&gt;3) SALOKYA – LOKAM – Living in the divine abode of Bhagavan, namely Vaikundam, seated one among the Bhagavan in his empire’s kingdom. (Location – divine abode)&lt;br /&gt;4) SAYUGYA – YUG – become one with Bhagavan. Removing duality and becoming one with Bhagavan. (Mixing with Bhagavan and becoming one with Bhagavan)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The four kind of Mukthi – Moksham, namely SARUPYA, SAMIBYA, SALOKYA, SAYUGYA are of supreme divine pleasure, which is aspired even by Rishi’s and Yogi’s who do extreme Tapa’s (vigorous strenuous sacrifice) for many years. The Bhagavan is caught easily by unconditional true divine love, by the constant chanting of Nama Japam. The Gopi’s, who lived in Vraja Bhoomi, attained Krishna Anugraham, very easily. For them each and every thing, each and every one, every action performed, each word spoken or heard, all seemed to be of Krishna Swarupam (incarnation of Krishna Bhagavan in human and other worldly forms). To them flowers, tree’s, rivers, ocean, fruit, milk, milkman, milkmaid, calves, cow, sticks, bamboo, buildings, etc., and all seemed to be of Krishna Bhagavan himself. They did all homely works. They never performed austerity. They never abandoned any worldly pleasures and luxuries. But in turn, they enjoyed all the worldly pleasures as the divine pleasures as given by Krishna Bhagavan himself. To them, sitting, sleeping, walking, running, taking care of husband, children, elderly people, looking after cow and calves, etc., and all routine works, itself become as divine sacrifices, performed with fire namely Yagna. The word Yagna means sacrifice. The Gopi’s sacrificed each and every emotions, that affected them namely, angry, jealousy, hatred, love, escapism, selfishness, possessiveness, unbearable thirst, uncontrollable emotions, hidden sorrows, restlessness, wavering, fear, tension, anxiety, etc., or by what ever words you want to call those emotions, to them it is only Krishna Prasatham (gift of Krishna Bhagavan).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They surrendered whatever emotion comes to them, on to Bhagavan Krishna through the chanting of Nama Japam. By their un swerved, unconditional divine love they kept their body, mind, soul united with Bhagavan at all times and enjoyed the true divine joy of Atma- namely Atma Anubhavam, continuously.&lt;br /&gt;So Bhagavan and the Bhaktha have become inseparable to each other. To the Bhaktha’s the Bhagavan is so dearer just as the soul. Krishna Bhagavan is the soul, which kept moving of these bodies of Bhaktha’s namely Gopi’s. The Nama Japam is the simple seed, which can keep our self, united with Bhagavan at all times, by all means. This unision of our mind with Bhagavan, becoming one with Bhagavan is YUG – YOGAM, and a person who achieved perfection in keeping himself united with the Bhagavan, at all times is a Yogi. Gopi’s attained the true state of Yoga Bhagavan, without knowing anything of what they acquired through constant meditation of Nama Japam. The Nama Japam silently gives all the hidden true divine joys to us, without our control and knowledge. The Rishi’s and Yogi’s, who does Tapa’s for hundreds and hundreds of years, could not enjoy the Bhagavan in the human form, as enjoyed by Gopi’s. Bhagavan is approachable by true divine love. He is untouchable and in comparable to the qualities of wisdom, knowledge, power, Tapa’s, Yogam etc., All the path’s of Bhakthi whether it is of Karma (actions) or Yoga (unison) or Gnana (knowledge), ultimately they will only lead to Premai – unconditional divine love on to Bhagavan. The Gopi’s, who doesn’t know even to distinguish between right and left hand, has acquired the possession of Bhagavan and kept himself tied to their knots in the Sari’s. The Gopi’s kept Bhagavan tied in the knot’s of their Sari’s. Accepting their true divine love through constant meditation and Nama japam, the Bhagavan who is uncontrollable by any force, kept him bonded. The true saint carries with him, this kind of treasure. Bhikshu – A true devotee (saint) who goes for Bhiksha – begging done for the purification of mankind, by singing the glory of Bhagavan. The true Mahatma carries with him, the Bhagavan himself. Then what is the need for him to carry any other objects? He keeps himself burden less. His mind, body, soul, word, deeds are filled with the divine joy of Bhagavath Bhakthi. He cares for nothing. He roams around the world, to destroy the sins and evil’s, through the chanting of Nama Japam and by the praising of Bhagavan’s divine glories. Bhikshu’s life is taken care by Bhagavan himself. The food, shelter, dress, amenities, luxuries, or whatever worldly pleasures belonging to this material world and that of divine pleasures as enjoyed in the divine abode of Bhagavan, namely Vaikundam, is taken care by Bhagavan himself. A true Mahatma (Bhikshu) doesn’t care for either material pleasures or divine pleasures. He constantly meditates on the divine glory of Bhagavan’s Namam and the divine mercy of Bhagavan in keeping each and everybody in a blissful divine filled life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bhagavan provides and keeps all living and non-living things, in a blissful way. He is showering his grace to one and all, in all the worlds. But, we keep our self, covered and not to enjoy the divine pleasure, as showered by him, by our Ego namely ‘I ness and ‘my ness. To remove this ever lasting illusion or Maya, namely ‘I ness and ‘my ness, we need a Sathguru who can guide us to that motive. The Sathguru gives the Manthropadesam. The Manthropadesam given by the Sathguru is the protection for our life, at all times and it is the only guiding force, which will keep us in the path of light, amidst of darkness. When a Shishya (student) is taken by the Sathguru, and given Manthropadesam means, from that time, from that moment it self, a new life begins for him. He enters into a new divine filled life. The Manthropadesam – Namam – Radhekrishna, as given by our Sathguru, Poojya Shri Shri Amma is the protection for us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;TO CONTINUE IN NEXT ISSUE....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-110820468138882123?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/110820468138882123/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=110820468138882123' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110820468138882123'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110820468138882123'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/02/bhikshu-geetham-udhava-mukthi.html' title='BHIKSHU GEETHAM -UDHAVA MUKTHI'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-110681002056950357</id><published>2005-01-27T16:10:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-01-29T21:03:09.096+09:00</updated><title type='text'> PRAHLATHA - BHAKTHI LAKSHANAM</title><content type='html'>PRAHLATHA – BHAKTHI LAKSHANAM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sravanam Keerthanam Vishno: Smaranam Padasevanam &lt;br /&gt;Archanam Vandhanam Dashyam Sakhyam Atma Nivedhanam &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                   Sri Math Bhagavatham  - 7:5:23&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                 7th Skandam-5th Adhyayam- 23rd Slokam &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prahlathan is a very great devotee of Bhagavan Vishnu. Prahlathan describes the Bhakthi Lakshanam (traits of Bhakthi) in 9 stages as follows. . .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1)      Sravanam – Listening to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2)      Keerthanam – Singing loudly in praise of Bhagavan’s glory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3)      Smaranam – Chanting and meditating on the Bhagavan’s grace,  in mind constantly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4)      Padasevanam – doing humble service to the divine Bhagavan and to the Sathguru.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5)      Archanam – doing prayers and surrendering flowers at the divine feet of Bhagavan, whole-heartedly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6)      Vandhanam – prostrating and surrendering ourselves at the divine feet of Bhagavan and to the Sathguru who has shown the true Bhakthi path.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7)      Dhasyam – treating us as a humble servant like a slave to the Bhagavan and receiving all kind of luxuries through, Bhagavan alone. Accepting Bhagavan as our master.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8)      Sakhyam – Treating Bhagavan as the most trusted and intimate friend, who is always the divine companion for us. Accepting Sathguru as the true companion who can lead us from darkness to light and to whom we can trust and reveal our inner feelings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9)      Atma Nivedhanam – Surrendering ourselves totally, our life should be under the whim and wish of Bhagavan (under the Bhagavan’s will). Let Bhagavan’s grace be the sole (only) motivating force for leading our life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sravanam – listening to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan can liberate us from all kind of bonding which keeps us restless. On listening to the Bhagavan’s Leela through a Sathguru, automatically our mind gets absorbed on to the Bhagavan’s divine filled actions.&lt;br /&gt;Parikshit, a very great emperor who has enjoyed all the luxuries of life, finally become frustrated and searched for a Sathguru who can lead him to true divine filled joy. His search ended with the arrival of a Sathguru called Suga Brahma rishi. He listened to the divine Leela’s of Bhagavan and attained mukthi- liberation from all bindings in just seven days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keerthanam – singing in praise of Bhagavan’s glory loudly. Narathar is a Sathguru who showers the grace of the Bhagavan to all with his divine filled keerthanam. He is a Sathguru who travels around the three worlds and sings in praise of Bhagavan’s glory. This singing removes all the sins of the world and whoever listens to it, can also enjoy the true happiness hidden in it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Smaranam – chanting the ‘Namam’ as given by Sathguru in the mind constantly and meditating on the divine grace of Bhagavan and conveying our regards and respect on to the Sathguru who has shown the true path of Bhakthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listening to Bhagavan’s Leela’s removes the sin. Singing loudly in praise of Bhagavan removes sorrows, inner emotions, hidden sorrows etc., chanting and meditating on the Namam – Radhekrishna as given by Sathguru, gives inner peace and harmony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Padasevanam – doing humble service. Man is bound and found of doing actions. The body is created in such a way that, under no moment can anyone keep himself without performing any action. We are busy in doing all our routine works, round the clock. But this alone will not fetch true happiness. By doing humble service to the Bhagavan and doing the divine service, which is given by Sathguru, we can get true inner happiness. Whatever work we do, if we surrender it by chanting the Radhekrishna Namam, the same work will become a sacrifice to the Bhagavan. This can give us a real inner joy and can lead us to a state of tension free, hassle free life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Archanam – doing prayers and surrendering flowers at the divine feet of Bhagavan, wholeheartedly. By chanting the divine name- Namam – Radhekrishna, we can surrender hundreds and hundreds of flowers in our mind itself. For each of the chanting ‘Radhekrishna’, we can surrender that chanting as “Bhagavan Radhekrishna, let this radhekrishna namam be a flower that is surrendered on your feet and accept my prayer”. In fact, this kind of prayer itself is a real prayer and we can surrender as many number of Radhekrishna Namam’s as we want, till our heart is filled with the true joy of Bhakthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vandhanam – prostrating and surrendering our self on to the divine feet of Sathguru who has shown us the Krishna Bhakthi. With their blessings, then we can surrender our self on to the divine feet of Bhagavan. People always used to get to the feeling of ‘I ness – Ego – Ahankharam. By chanting Radhekrishna Namam, we may at times imagine ”see, how good I am at Bhakthi”.  But Bhakthi is itself done for removing this ‘I ness. To remove the feeling of ‘I ness and ‘my ness, let us prostrate on to the divine feet of Sathguru. It is the Sathguru, who only has shown us the right path and they are the only guiding force, which can lead us to the end. Let us admit our self on to the divine feet of Bahavan through the blessings of Sathguru.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dhasyam – Accepting Bhagavan Radhekrishna as our Master and receiving all kind of luxuries either for this material life or for the divine life from him alone. Bhagavan Radhekrishna is our master and we are the humble servants of him. He keeps us as a tool, and does good things to the mankind. Let us allow him to make the best use of us as a tool in his hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sakhyam – Bhagavan is the beloved, intimate friend who keeps the secret always a secret. The Sathguru is the true companion, who can lead us from the path of darkness to light. We can see, hear and seek advice from Sathguru. Sathguru guide us towards divinity, towards Bhakthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Atma Nivedhanam – Surrendering our life wholeheartedly as per the will of Bhagavan and do our duty as the service done to Bhagavan, without any reward. The surrendering of our self gives us a sense of confidence. We can always be freed from bindings. Why should we worry? Let us surrender our self. He is always with us. Bhagavan Radhekrishna is all pervasive, omnipresent, omnipotent, which can protect us from everything that disturbs us. Let us chant “ Radhekrishna “ Namam as given by Sathguru.

He was a true devotee of Bhagavan. His mind was fully occupied with the divine leela's of Bhagavan. He considered himself as a humble servant of Bhagavan. He did his role of king very well. All admired his righteousness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He did his role without the feeling of I' ness and my' ness. It is Bhagavan who only does all the good things to the mankind. We are just tools in his hand. With our body as a tool, Bhagavan does good things to the mankind. Katvanghan constantly meditated on the KARUNYAM- divine mercy of Bhagavan, for keeping him in such a high position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this world, there is a war between Righteousness and Evilness. This war goes from time immemorial. Once there broke a war between Deva's and Asura's. Katvanghan was called by deva's. Deva's asked for his help. Katvanghan assisted them. There was a ferocious war between deva's and asura's. Katvanghan fought bravely and defeated asura's. Many asura's were killed. The left behind asura's ran off from the scene. Deva's won the battle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deva's gave a boon to Katvanghan. He asked the deva's, " Please tell me, my lifespan that is left out". To this, deva's replied, " you are left with a lifespan of only one MUHOORTHAM time" (1 muhoortham = one and half hours). Knowing that, his life is going to wind up within one and half hours time, he felt astonished. With the deva's help, he took the divine plane called Vimanam and immediately rushed to Bhoolokam (Earth). The Devalokam (place of deva's) is not for mukthi. Whenever any one gets a curse or boon, he will be sent only to earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The earth is the place filled with Satvic State(Sathva Gunam). Here, we can get the darshan of Sathguru. With Sathguru's blessings and through Nama Sankeerthanam, we can attain mukthi quickly. Knowing this, Katvanghan came to Bharatha Bhoomi (India). As per Bhagavatham, Bharatha Bhoomi is the place for karma, bhakthi, and here it is filled with Sathguru's divine grace and here one can easily attain mukthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other places in the world are called Bhoga Bhoomi (places for enjoyment), where people can enjoy their life merrily in unwanted things and finally end up in frustration and restlessness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the Bharatha Bhoomi, Bhakthi is more. Here the entire places are filled with the vedic vibrations and the vibrations of Sathguru's Nama Sankeerthanam. With the blessings of Sathguru and through Sathsangam (listening to the divine leela's of Bhagavan) once mind can be cleansed and thereby fill it with Bhakthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katvanghan reached a lonely place and started meditating on the divine feet of Bhagavan. He left all the unwanted things from his mind. He removed the sentimental feelings of emperor, protector of mankind etc., He removed bonding in the form of father, mother, children, relatives, friends, subjects, noble citizens, etc., and considered himself as a humble servant to Bhagavan. When all the bonding were removed, his mind become one with the Bhagavan and attained Mukthi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katvanghan attained mukthi, in just a very short period of one and half hours.&lt;br /&gt;By listening to Sathsangam and through Nama Japam (chanting Radhekrishna) with the divine blessings of Guruji Amma, we can also remove all our bondings, which make us restless. We can attain true happiness devoid of sorrows and sufferings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People are busy and they don't waste their time. They are busy in studying, searching for job, settling in marriage life, looking after children, earning huge money, building mighty emperor in the form of bungalow, car, wealthy man, owning many titles and crowns, certificates and medals etc., all goes..all goes.. all goes with time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But are we caring for time? The time goes day by day without our knowledge and control and one day every one becomes old. But no one is ready to accept this cold fact. Let us surrender ourselves to the divine feet of Bhagavan and seek the blessings of Guruji Amma, to lead a life worth living, which can lead us to Bhagavath Bhakthi and Mukthi&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-110554747006786067?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/110554747006786067/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=110554747006786067' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110554747006786067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110554747006786067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2005/01/katvangha-mukthi.html' title='KATVANGHA- MUKTHI'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-110415887123047683</id><published>2004-12-27T23:03:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-01-24T18:46:23.460+09:00</updated><title type='text'>AMBHARISHA - BHAKTHI</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;DEVOTION OF KING AMBAREESHA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ambharisha was a mighty emperor. He ruled the entire world. No emperor was comparable to his massive wealth, mighty power, broad intellect. But, he never felt proud over his supremacy. He considered himself as a humble servant. The name AMBHARISHA in Sanskrit gives different meanings. A person whose intellect is as broad as the sky is called AMBHARISHA. A person who constantly meditates on the supreme primordial source, Bhagavan is called AMBHARISHA. A person who detatches himself from the sentimental bondings in the form of mother, father, relations etc., is called AMBHARISHA. AMBHARISHA had one wealth, which never gets drained. That wealth, which AMBHARISHA had was KRISHNA BHAKTHI. The happiness got by Krishna Bhakthi is incomparable. In Bhagavatham, Suga Brahma rishi gives the picture of Krishna Bhakthi with AMBHARISHA as a Krishna devotee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"His mind is filled with meditating on the lotus feet of Krishna Bhagavan. He praised the divine Leela's of Bhagavan Krishna and the tongue tasted the Nama Ruchi-sweetness of Nama Japam. He heared Sathsangam - divine stories of Krishna Leela's through Sathguru. His eyes enchanted at the sight of true krishna Bhaktha's. He smelled the fragrance of Thulasi which are surrendered at the lotus feet of Bhagavan. He walked by foot to the divine hermitage of Sathguru and listened to the preachings and advices of Sathguru. He bowed his head under the lotus feet of Bhagavan."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mind is for the meditation of Bhagavan. We have to chant the Namam as given by Sathguru constantly in mind. The tongue is for the praise of Bhagavan and the Sathguru who showed the way of Krishna Bhakthi. The hands and legs are for doing services to the Sathguru and thereby attaining true knowledge. The ears are for listening Krishna Leela's and the life stories of True Mahathma's who poised themself as Krishna Bhaktha's. Sathsangam - company of Krishna Bhaktha's can lead to Mukthi. The nama japam given by Sathguru removes our sorrows and showers the Krishna Anugragham on us. Sathguru lead us from darkness to light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first stage of Bhakthi is Sravanam - Listening. The listening of Krishna Leela's removes our sin. It removes the dirty, unwanted thoughts from our mind. It cleanses the mind. On listening to the Sathsangam, automatically Krishna Bhagavan enters into us and removes the unwanted things and make our heart itself a dwelling abode for him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By listening to the Sathguru's words, through chanting Dhruvan attained Bhagavath Anugragahm just in 5 months. By listening to the preachings of Suga Brahma Rishi - Sathguru, Parikshith attained Mukthi in 7 days. Sathguru is here to preach us. Let us listen to it. With Bhagavan Radhekrishna's grace and Guruji Amma's blessings, we can march forward in Bhakthi. We are born in this world to attain Bhagavath Anugraham and Mukthi. Sathguru's blessings are the boon for us and the Krishna Nama Japam given by Guruji Amma is the splendid torch, which can lead us to the divine abode of Bhagavan. Let us pray Bhagavan Radhekrishna to make us a Sathsishya to Guruji Amma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;color:#663366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..RADHEKRISHNA..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jai Shri Poojya Shri Shri Amma. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-110415887123047683?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/110415887123047683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=110415887123047683' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110415887123047683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110415887123047683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2004/12/ambharisha-bhakthi.html' title='AMBHARISHA - BHAKTHI'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-110309442215947239</id><published>2004-12-15T16:07:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-01-24T18:50:46.203+09:00</updated><title type='text'>THE VISION OF THE LIBERATOR</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/img/14/2472/1024/Dsc00277.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="BORDER-RIGHT: #000000 2px solid;

'PARAM' means Vaikuntam, the divine abode of Bhagavan. Here, only the liberated souls called Mukthathma's enjoy the Bhagavth grace. From vaikuntam, Bhagavn entered VYUGAM or THIRUPARKADAL. Here Deva's and Rishi's come and appeal to Bhagavan. To remove the sorrows of the humanbeings, Bhagavn takes AVATHARAM called VIBHAVAM in the form of Rama and Krishna. There also only a bestowed souls understands the true individuality and the divineness of Bhagavan. Then comes ANTHARYAMI, the Bhagavn residing in each and every being. There also only a few can hear the inner voice of Antharyami and go by his sayings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Then comes ARCHAI - ARCHAVATHARAM. The divyadesam, where Bhagavan's idols are kept. The holy temples filled with sancity and vedic vibrations are termed as Divyadesams.&lt;br /&gt;Here also people go to these temples. But, they could not fully absorb the divineness abide in those idols. Then Bhagavn sents the divine AVATHARA PURUSHA'S in the form of AZHWARGAL and ACHARYA'S. The Sathacharya mix with the public and shower the divine grace and Bhakthi to one and all. The five stages of Bhagavan viz., Vaikuntam, Vyugam, Vibhavam, Antharyami, Archai are known to many. The knowledge of these in the written or oral form will not fetch the divine experiences. To enjoy the divine experiences we need a Sathguru who can guide us to that motive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our mind is covered with 'I' and 'My' nature forming the everlasting Maya or illusion. The Sathguru removes these feelings of 'I' and 'My'from our mind and liberates us. We expect everything to happen in our own way. When something goes wrong, we become vexed and get trapped in the sorrow and sadness. There we remove ourselves from the divine grace of Bhagavan. Sathguru strengthen us, when problem comes in our way. They preach us the divinity hidden in ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Manthropadesham given by Sathguru, is the protection for us from everything.&lt;br /&gt;The Krishna Avatharam has the Sowlabyam -simplicity. Krishna Bhakthi knows no boundaries. Krishna can be approached as a child, father, mother, beloved, lover, master, friend, as the Bhava (way of approach) that applies to us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our Guruji Amma gives the "Radhekrishna" Manthram. The divine love, Premai is showered to us by Radha Matha. The Krishna Anugragham is showered by Krishna Bhagavan. A child holding one hand to father and the other hand to mother, walks merrily. In the same way, we can hold our one hand to Krishna Prabhu and the other to Radha Matha and walk merrily in this life path.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our Guruji Amma is here to hand over our hands to Bhagavn Radhekrishna. Let us surrender ourselves at the divine feet of Guruji Amma and attain the Sathguru's grace. With Guruji Amma's grace, we can keep hold of Bhagavn Radhekrishna's hands and enjoy walking merrily in this life path.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff6600;"&gt;Humble pranams to the feet of Guruji Amma&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jai Shree Poojya Shree Shree Amma&lt;br /&gt;Jai Shree RadheKrishna&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-110291981972711122?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/110291981972711122/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=110291981972711122' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110291981972711122'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/110291981972711122'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2004/12/sathguru-sowlabyam.html' title='SATHGURU - SOWLABYAM'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-110249880786096545</id><published>2004-12-08T18:33:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2005-01-24T19:05:11.516+09:00</updated><title type='text'>MY GURUJI AMMA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;Radhekrishna...

The plans, sustained efforts and all our calculations will not serve well, in every circumstance.&lt;br /&gt;The turning point, in my life also taken place in the same way. I came as a patient. Then asked one day, shall I learn Yoga? And that changed my attitude. Then I started practicing Yoga. It is the Teen Age that decides one's character. A person may shape is character well or get ruined himself at that age. It was at that crucial time, when I started practicing Yoga. Even though I was getting good marks in my curriculum, my mind was covered with fear, negative thoughts, changing moods etc., I was always having a thought, will I go in a wrong way? Get addicted to bad habits and spoil myself. The practice of Yoga, has given me a stepping-stone to enter into Bhakti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guruji Amma gave me Manthropadesham- Nama Japam. Guruji Amma asked me to chant, "Radhekrishna. "Radhekrishna.. First I neglected, oppossed, criticised, and had full of suspicion and doubt to accept it or not. Then later on everything changed. I started chanting "Radhekrishna'' .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The chanting gave me inner confidence, inner peace. Then the path of my life has become easier. I could face the problems, with confidence. IT IS THE CHANTING THAT ONLY SAVES ME.&lt;br /&gt;My Physical power, mental power, tactics, cleverness, all will serve only in vain. At each step when I surrender to Bhagavan, by chanting Radhekrishna.. and seeking the blessings of Guruji Amma, there I see a hope of light in the midst of darkness, which guides me to success. The world usually acknowledges the " True Mahatma'', only after a Time Interval of their life span. In later years, the world, glorifies them, and surrenders at their divine pilgrimage with utmost devotion and faith. Only a few bestowed souls are able to understand the Mahatma's true individuality, during their lifetime itself. I am praying to Bhagavan Radhekrishna, to give me the mind and will to make myself a Sathsishya to my Guruji Amma i.e. POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this present day fast world, no one has the time to sit and close eyes. The practice of rituals needs utmost care and are confusing too. Entering into True Yogic state, forsaking everything and living in forest, will not serve the purpose to all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"NAMAJAPAM'' is the only way to attain MUKTHI or MOKSHAM, in this KALIYUGAM. The man's mind is filled with irresistible temptations, unfulfilled dreams, etc., by chanting the divine name - NAMAJAPAM - RADHEKRISHNA, we are in a way marching towards Bhagavan's Lotus Feet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NAMAJAPAM is the simple seed, which can sprout as a BIG BHAKTHI TREE. Under the shadow of this TREE, all the human beings can relax themselves and enjoy the divine happiness. Our Guruji Amma showers the blessings and grace to one and all, which surrenders them to the Lotus Feet of Lord Krishna.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guruji Amma is praying to BHAGAVAN and removes the sorrows and sufferings of devotee's. Guruji Amma is praying to BHAGAVAN to relieve the mankind from sufferings, sorrows and make this world itself as VAIKUNDAM- DIVINE ABODE OF BHAGAVAN. Guruji Amma's heart is SO BIG to invite, the entire mankind to taste the DIVINE HAPPINESS OF BHAGAVAN RADHEKRISHNA, thereby making the statement "LOKHA SAMASTHA SUKINO BHAVANTHU'' - a  REALITY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I humbly surrender myself to Guruji Amma's feet, to shower the blessings on me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;N.

Many a time, you will be frustrated with the obstructions put forth in the name of regulating, by the self appointed supervisors (disciple's) of that swamigal from going and seeing him direct.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This makes the seeker to gain an impression that unless that shishya (supervisor) is pleased, you would not be able to reach the Swamigal.This will lead to coaxing, cajoling and what not of manouvers to please him. It is possible that the Swamigal may be kept in the dark, about this sort of goings-on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In case of our Aacharyaa Poojyashree Shree Amma, you yourself can see the Aacharyaa sitting on the sofa, reading something-all about Bhagavath Vishayam only from the doorstep itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will be greeted by the word 'Radhekrishna', the moment you go nearer to the Aacharyaa, on seeing the Aacharyaa's benign face with an enquiring look, you will be emboldened to pour out your heart.Besides, being an Aacharyaa, Poojyashree Shree Amma is also an housewife.An unique example of how to do your ordained duty on both the positions with admirable skills, dexterity and grace.This aspect will make you at ease, in talking to her, all your problems as if, you are talking to your own kith and kin \ friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other case of Swamiji's you will be at a loss to understand as to how to address the Swamiji and unfold your problems to him and you will be in fix with inner prayers that whether any providential help would not be forthcoming to solve it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here lies, the uniqueness of your chosen aacharyaa - viz - Poojya Shree Shree Amma, besides offering mundane and practical remedies \ solutions to your ailments and problems.The Aacharyaa advises you to place everything under the lotus feet of Lord Shri Krishna- Radhekrishna, to be precise and invoke his blessings by constantly chanting his name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The all powerful sure - result oriented name Radhekrishna Namam to ward off all evils that befallen you.Lord Sri Krishna states in Bhagawath Geetha (9th Chapter, 34th Sloka) in the yoga of royal science and royal mystery :- &lt;br /&gt;Fix your mind on me, be my devotee, worship me, bow down to me; having thus controlled yourself and regarding me as yours supreme goal, you shall come to me. &lt;br /&gt;Your chosen aacharyaa echoes the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, my Aachaaryaa, Sadhacharyaa Poojya Shree Shree Amma is my support, the solace, the refuge, my conscience keeper, nearest to my heart and soul and literally nearer to my dwelling place also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So i bessech you seekers of liberation, to surrender yourself unto the benign feet of Poojyashree Shree Amma for lasting peace and prosperity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jay Shree Poojyashree Shree Amma &lt;br /&gt;Jay Shree Radhekrishna SathSangam &lt;br /&gt;Jay Shree Radhekrisha &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A humble devotee of Poojya Shree Shree Amma &lt;br /&gt;T.Narasimhan &lt;br /&gt;Chennai - 600 064.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-109688917091079173?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/109688917091079173/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=109688917091079173' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/109688917091079173'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/109688917091079173'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2004/10/simplicity-and-grace.html' title='THE SIMPLICITY AND GRACE'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397617.post-109567279641178278</id><published>2004-09-20T18:31:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2004-11-30T16:25:44.373+09:00</updated><title type='text'>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA</title><content type='html'>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATH SANGAM!&lt;br /&gt;JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA!&lt;br /&gt;COME AND JOIN US FOR THE SECURED, SACRED, SPIRITUAL JOURNEY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;READ OUR SPIRITUAL MAGAZINES ONCE IN TEN DAYS!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JUST FOR YOU!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA KRISHNARADHE RADHEKRISHNA KRISHNARADHE RADHEKRISHNA&lt;br /&gt;RADHEKRISHNA KRISHNARADHE RADHEKRISHNA KRISHNARADHE RADHEKRISHAN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HARE RAAMA HARE RAAMA RAAMA RAAMA HARE HARE&lt;br /&gt;HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8397617-109567279641178278?l=poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/feeds/109567279641178278/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8397617&amp;postID=109567279641178278' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/109567279641178278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8397617/posts/default/109567279641178278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com/2004/09/jay-shree-poojya-shree-shree-amma.html' title='JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA'/><author><name>JAY SHREE POOJYA SHREE SHREE AMMA!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08350049684049303739</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
