(‘Rishi Prasad’ Correspondent)

While on the hand lakhs of devotees in big cities are longing to have darshan and satsang of pujya Bapuji, the compassion incarnate Bapuji a friend of the mcck choose people living in small towns and villages for dispensing the nectar of devotion and love for the Lord people who hand been hitherto deprived of satsang. Quilts and blankets were distributed to save many poor and needy people from cold. Also Shunthi paak (a preparation make form dry ginger), dates and other foods that provide nourishment to the body in winters distributed. More than all this, pujyashree gave them the amour of satang that alone can save man form the missiles of pleasures and pains in the world and suffused their minds intellects and hearts with devotion and love for the Lord.
The blessed devotees of Chhoti Khaatu (Rajasthan) had the good fortune of Satsang on (1st December). True to the name the village was small but the devotional and enthusiasm of the people was gigantic. The whole villages seemed to have assembled for the single session satsang. The students too were given satsang and guidance on this occasion and were taught yogic techniques of all round success in life.
5th December was the day of celebration for people of Pipad (Rajasthan). Their beloved sat guru was in their midst on that day. Enlightening the people there on the significance of Satsang, pujyashri satiated them with satsang. In the night pujyashri arrived at the Joshpur Ashram.
On 7th December there was a single session satsang programme,. In spit of there being absolutely no publicity for the satsang programme the mammoth crowds proved the arrangements to be inadequate. Along with common people many saints’ luminaries of spiritual world attended the satsang and received guidance in respect of safeguarding and propagating the eternal India culture. Inspiring people to get beyond goodness and badness and attain to the supreme state of God Realization pujyashri quoted this verse from the Gita.
‘Earth water fire air ether mind intellect and egoism thus is my Nature divided eightfold.’
Good or bad all are in this eightfold nature our real nature is entirely different form it.
This satsang dealing with the Ultimate Truth was delivered in the course of Pujyashri’s solitude and the devotees of Jodhpur availed of the opportunity in full naeaseure.
On 10the December pujyashri arrived at Amdavad. Devotees coming from Sawai Shamgiri Math Mirpur Khas Tando Adam Berani and Talhar Padir ect. In Pakistan availed of Pujyashri’s Darshan and satsang bearing testimony to the reverence people from all religions castes and nationalities show towards pujya Bapuji and the sublime joy they derive fro His satsang.
Purnima Darshan programme was at Amdaved on 11th December and 12the December (up to morning). Lakhs of devotees from states like Gujarat Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh etc.Availed of darshan and sstsnag here.
Immediately on arriving at the rostrum Bapuji asked the devotees, “You people have had so much of satsang: are you still not satiated?’
Devotees said with one voice, No! “
Then pujyashri said If one is satiated with spiritual satsang, it only means that he doesn’t know the significance and glory of spirituality. One can get fed up with the world; one can be satiated with food but the joy of spirituality is such that the more you imbibe the thirstier you are. Like amla and honey Sportual and it also kindles the appetite. If one has true faith, one has appetite for satsang and it gets digested as well.
Without satisfying spiritual hunger one cannot satisfy physical hunger. One can fell disinclined towards food but one’s hunger is not destroyed. Moral progress is not possible without spiritual progress and material progress without moral one brings only trouble and misery.
Purnima Darshan Progaramme was organized at Delhi’s Japani Park Rohini from12th December afternoomn to 14th December. “Placing reliance on worldly objects on becomes small but if one laces reliance on God all joys and pleasures come automatically an one, ovens towards real progress.’ Putting light on this philosophical fact of human life pujyashree revealed the significance of taking refuge in God.
Pujyashri showed the straight and simple path of Self Knowledge of rejoicing in the self and being satisfied and contented in the self to the ignorant men looking in vain fro delight satisfaction and contentment in the world.
Delhites were treated to a sumptuous fare of spiritual joy in the three day satsang. The satsang programme was scheduled to end at noon on 14th December yet the devotees thirst for satsang was not quenched and they entreated pujya Bapuji for one more session of satsang. Acceding to their request pujya Bapuji allotted the evening session of satsang o Delhi making the devotees feel immensely blessed.
The Satsang on16 the and 17th December fell into the lap of Narnaul (Haryana). Pujya Bapuji left Delhi for Narnaul in the morning of 16th December. This news places on the way with garlands in their hands and longing for darshan in their eyes. When these lovers of Pujya Bapuji were blessed with a few words of satsang along with Darshan their joy knew no bounds.
`When puhjashri arrived at Narnaul in the evening of 16the December the pandal was overawed with thousands of people in the pandal and many more outside it. According to local people such huge crowds hand never been witnessed at narnaul. Addressing the people at Narnaul the Birth place of the historic personality of Birbal and also the place where Maharishi Chyavan performed austerities, pujyashri said, The jiva himself has to enjoy the fruit of happiness or suffer that of sorrow resulting from his actions and the bondage of karma acontinces so long as the doer sense is there. When one starts taking delight in the True Self the doer sense is extinguished. For such person Lord Krishna says there is no duty for him. Such a one becomes a saint. He is not a doer then whether he is a king like king janaka and Lord Rama angering the affairs of Mithila Ayodhya respectively or lives on alms Shukdeva he is doing all he does as a spontaneous act for general good.
A grand bhandara too was organiesed here. Two sessions of satang, 17th evening and 18th morning were given to the people of Mahenragarh (Haryana) This being Pujyashri first visit to the newly comstcted Ashram here the sadhakas and devotees were in a festive mood. Pujyashri awakened the people here to the need of rearing and protecting cows.
A question was put by some inquisitive as to what are the qualities enlightened men. Quoting from the sukhamni pujya Bapuji said:
‘Who can estimate the were of Brahman? Only a Bramajanani can know the divine spiritual state of the Brahmajnani.’
Nobody can weigh enlightened saints on his own scale. Shukdeva was an ascetic whereas Maharshi Vashishtaji hand a hundred sons. Enlightened saints cannot be judge on the dais of their out worldly behavior. However if you approach them with faith in your heart you get a glimpse of their greatness.”
In the aftehrnoon of 18th December, satsang and bhandara was orgainsed at Rewari Ashram (Haryana). Quilts Shunthi paak calendars photos of Pujya Bapuji and other articles of this nature were distributed fro free amongst the poor people here. Distinguished members of the society were present on the occasion. Addressing the devotes pujya Bapuji and Nobody should be under the mistaken belief that only those aviailing of the hbandara are poor. In fact those who consider themselves to be rich and respectable became of wealth position or learning they self knowledge they too are poor if they lack self knowledge and Self Biss. Those under the power of mind and sense are verily poor.
Only saints and even among the saints the rare ones who seek supreme Good for us can do such plain speak. People of Sohna (Hearyana) had the good fortune of satsang on 20th and 21st December. In the company of Pujya Dapuji the devotees here experienced different shades of spirituality. Now they were immersed in the calm of meditation and now they were undulating to the rhythm lf Kirtan. The entire town was suffused with the spirit of Pujya Bapuji Smashing the doubt of ceria devotes as to whether God Administers justice or showered mercy pujya Bapuji said that God is both just and merciful. His justice aspect is reflected in Karma principle of devotion. Pujya Bapuji said God is just He is merciful as well and He is supremely benevolent friend of all f us. God; administers justices by punishing the evil men, is compassionate towards those who atone for their sins and is a friends to His devotees. God is giver of fear as well as destroyer of fear, Pujyashri enlightened people on how all are uplifted by God and the Guru. Pujyashri said There are three types of people in the world on do not do sadhana and the thirdly there are people who act contrary to the path of God. Ahilya is not able to do sadhana to realize God Lying as a stone as she is. The Lord liberates her with His Compassion. Rishis are equipped with sadhan; the Lord helps them on the path of sadhana or arranges their meeting a sad Guru. The sadhana equipped king Parikshit realized God in Just seven days! So all the three types of people devoied of sagdhana equipped with sahanan and perverse people are up lifted by God and the Guru.”
Along with satsang blankets and dates were distributed among poor people here and ad bhandara was organised. Truly great are such saints who unmindful of the inconvenience suffered by them travel incessantly to dispense peace happiness and good health amongst the people. To those who are health amongst the people. TO those who are living in want of material effects they give material help and to those who are suffering from attainment to material comforts they bestow the gift of spirituality
