There was a Seth (money lender) by the name of Shrives Nayak cotemporary of Maharaj Krishna Dev Rai of Vijaynagar. He was a jewel merchant. Once a Brahmin came to him sad sethji My daughter has got engaged and now I need money for her marriage. I have come to you with the how of some help.”
The seth refused saying Am I under an obligation to help; you in marriage of your daughter? I shall not give a penny.”
The Brahmin becomes helpless. He came to know that the Seth wife was spiritual and she firmly believed in the die leaving all material things behind. Therefore on should perform noble tasks. The Brahmin went to the seth wife.
The Seth wife went that asking money form her husband was useless and thus she handed over a very precious moseying to the Brahmin so that he could pawn it.
The Brahmin could think of no other person who would pawn such precious nose ring and ultimately went t to the Seth.
The Seth on seeing the nose ring thought within. Such a precious stone who could given this to such a wretched Brahmin? He very carefully scrutinized the nose ring and told the Brahmin the he would give the money for that nose ring the next day.
The Seth kept the nose ring in the inner most cell of the safe and kept the day with himself. He put a second lock on the outside of the safe and went home. He called out to his wife and asked. Where is the valuable nose rign that you used to wear often?
She could imagine the consequence of telling the truth. She started thinking as to what to do now and in a hurry spoke out It is kept inside.
The Seth enquired where inside she was sure that she would not be spared now by her husband he being such a great miser.
The seth wife mixed poised in a bowl and sat in form t of the idol of God saving Madhya myself to your in forever. I have no other option. You are the almighty and I a simple woman. Now ;you only guide me……. And please do one thing Bestow upon my husband the gift of you dettion. As for me I going to be on with you. My you wish be fulfilled my lord.
She kept on praying incessantly and then reposed in self for a while. The sperm Being is all pervading and all powerful. A miracle happened then and there. As soon as the Seth wife brought the bowl near given to the Brahmin fell into it with a splash.
“What is this She fond out that it was the same nose ring.
God I had heard that you are the creator protector and destroyer of the universe but only today. I got see your miraculous act in realty.
Now what kind of mentions would have filled her heart only she knows she is going on wiping away her tears filled with love and obligation and is continuing to give thanks saying, Those who consider themselves orphan and helpless are at great fault. Mabhav you are the master of all and with everyone always. Even I a was not aware of this. I was about to end my life but you wanted to save me. You brought the nose ring and kept it into the bowl. How I had thought of being scolded and rebuked by my husband and what no but Lord you ..
Thus praying with a heartfelt gratitude, she got deeply absorbed in the thought of the Lord and got filled with divine bliss. Only a devotee can understand the peace, the bliss and the charm of being one with God by praying with a heart filled with love for Him. The heart saturated with peace and eye filled with gratitude and tears of lovely She said to her husband, Take your nose ring O dear husband.”
What This nose rign It is yours Then the one which is with me is whose
The Seth instantly ran towards his shop He opened the safe and then inner most cell where he had kept the nose ring. To his surprise the nose rign had disappeare!
He was abosolutely confused at the thought of the nose ring reaching his wife thought kept so secretly. I miser coder this illusory world and perishable body to be true. I did not know about the glory of you immortal oh Madhya Lord compassionate kind God seth Shrinvas now no longer remained Shrinivas ( A bode of wealth) but had become Bhagavadnivas ( a bode of God). He announced publicly whoever is in need can come to shrinivas fulfilled come and take… … take..
A whole life is consumed in amassing wealth but what time does it take in giving away. Everyone shall be left behind when you will bie. Shrinivas renounced and it does not follow that you will not. The only difference could be that Shrinivas gave up everymen for God while others may be compelled to do so. When one dies he goes leaving behind everything here itself. Who will go without leaving something or another? Even the most wretched one goes leaving behind something. Before the day finally comes when everything will have to be forsaken one should learn to repose in the self for at least sometime. Our heart should writhe for God or become lone with Him considering Him to be our own.
Shrinivas gave up everything and become an ascetic. He along with his four children and wife want other Ashram of San Vyasaraiji you have achieved, we also want to experience that nectar of the self.
Seeing the devotion of Shrinivas Guru Vyasaraiji named him purandar Vitthal. The same Shrinivas become prandardsas and absorbed himself so much in the devotion of God that his life become blessed Purandaerji used to live on alms. Whatever plain or simple food he used to get he would not eat alone. He would first distribute it amongst the poor people he used to meet on the way and keep for he only own share. He would never keep in store for the next day. All his four children and had also dedicated them selves to God.
As time passed prandardasji became famous and more and more people started joining his group of devotional singing. On one side there are holy people who rejoice and lain there are holy people who rejoice and gain by the saint darsan satsang and company while on the other hand there are also such vile slanderers who envy such saints seeing their fame. The same happened with his saint also a she always happened with every saint who has tried to alarm people of the wicked selfish elements in the society. Some mean spirited started troubling him. This did not bring down his repetition rather it enhanced all the more become people were well aware of the social welfare works bang carried out by him.
The devotional songs of Purandardasji become very famous amongst people and began to be sung in almost very home. Some people revered his poem in the same way as the scripterslke Upanishads etc. are esteemed. Now the hearts of the anti religious elements started blazing with envy become they had been absolutely unsuccessful inmaligining his reputation and were being censured by the society. The incited the pundits. The pundits threw away the collection of prandarasji poems. It brought about a sitar in the society the virtuous people in the society united them selves and condemned the conspirers. They prayed to prunandarassji with tear filled eyes to somehow bring and the scriptures were returned to the devotees.
The people respectfully worshipped the scriptures of prandasdasji and made it their own. Those scriptures only came to be known all over by the name of prandasdasji ki Upanishad. This popular saint went to the God abode at the age of eight in the year1562.
Today the propagation of devotional songs of Purandardasji has greatly increased but fortunate are the ones who gained form the satsang and company of the sent during the time he was alive . They all filled their life with divine nectar charm and bliss.

Gita An Unequalled Scripture

Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is a marvelous sacred scripture which gives solution to all kinds of problems. It is an ocean of profound knowledge of the supreme Brahman a practical hand book of Lord. Gita is a scripture on life knowledge victory a scripture which is a guide to the highest human psychology. It is creative book of the world which bestows skill to its readers.

Scriptures say:
One gets the merit of ten million holy expeditions by reciting the shloka of Gita, by remembering God singing his praise and by having Dashan of a self realized saint.
The Gita still occupies the top slot in out lives amongst all the sacred texts.
There is nothing as precious as Hari (the Lord) no path as easy as the path of Love.
No such well wisher of man like the sat guru and no other scripture as great as the Gita.’
This small scripture contains distinguished thoughts full of truth and knowledge regarding the depth of life. By regularly reading and reflecting upon them the dejection depression and worries of all henign are easily eliminated and a human being is transformed into divine begins. Those people are extremely fortunate who have assimilated the knowledge of Gita. Such people certainly succeed in elevation their lives sooner or later. Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is full such divine knowledge that whoever drinks its nectar develops the qualities of courage, velour equanimity spontaneity live peace and divine attributers in his life. He also becomes capable of resisting unrighteousness and exploitation.

If you want to experience liberation even while living amidst the various obstacles and conflicts then the knowledge of Gita an Bhagwat shall be of immense help. Gita is such a philosophy which makes the java has the experience of his real beings.’
Vinobaji Bahava says on the strength of Gita a person can alone confront the entire would.
Doing the welfare of all human begins is the supreme goal of Gita. The man may not be deprived of realizing God beings fascinated by many person object or circumstance becomes attainment of God is the supreme goal of human life. People are erroneously drawn towards trying to gratify their senses by being captivated by the world cantors and pleasures. In returen they obtain nothing but sorrows. It is a pity that they look for happing in this world full of miseries. The more one wants to get pleasure form the world the more deeply he gets drowned in sorrows. The Gita removes this delusion and differences showing an extremely easy, natural and delightful way of living based on supreme knowledge.

It contains divine ways for the welfare off all human beings belonging to all notations and all races. Therefore we all should bathe our salvers in the knowledge of Gita. The Gita which gives worldly pleasures and liberation while developing divine qualities like detachment fearlessness etc. as well is a matchless scripture in the world.’

We should hold Gita shloka memorizing contests and levitate tests on the pious occasion of Gita juayanti.
Gita is the only scripture of the world whose anniversary is celebrated. It we want to keep our culture alive to instill the sprit it of nationalism into people by inculcating the virtues then we should celebrate such festivals and occasions like Gita juayanti with great jubilation.
The impotence of festivals should be taught to the people by including intent the syllabi of the students by mantes of religious stories incase of householders and to the society by means of songs and acting in religious movies The young generation that has become crazy for the perverted western thought can once again take benefits of the excellent principles of India scriptures saints and culture and there by contribute in large numbers in the divine works of worlds peace and welfare.
In every Bal Sanskar Kendra the Kendra teacher should himself recite the Gita and also get it done by the children Read out its before reciting. Celebrate Gita Juayanti in this way. Continue to propagate and publicize the Bhagaved Gita around the world.

Is God Compassionate or Just?

A person who is merciful cannot dispense justice properly and the on who is righteous comes express mercy. This thought comes to the mind very often: Is God compassionate or He is just? If He is sympathetic then the culprit should be pitied upon and forgiven .If a judge is sympathetic he shall not declare any punishment for the offender rather shall say out of compassion Let the poor go” If the God is just and gives merely the fruits or our Karam (action) then why should we take refuge in Him. If
God can’t empathize with us then why should we worship Him? On the contrary if god cannot do justice then what good can an unfair entity do to us? If he doses our good then He may correspondingly harm another. If He imposes on us then He is not merciful. So once again the question arises. Whether God is Merciful or just?
`The truth is that God is kind as well as just. How is this possible? A person who is merciful will somehow compromise on the justice front fan a person who metes our justice will compromise on the justice formt a and person who metes out justice will compromise on the compassion ground. So does that mean God is an entity who compromises?
If you believe in the concept that God is just then the believers of the law of karma will encourage you with.
The theory of karma runs the world.
As you sow so shall you reap?
And if you are on the side of people who are believers of the accept of God’s compassion then they will inspire you with.
Even if you are the most sinful of all sinners yet your shall verily cross all the sins by raft of knowledge.’
On one side is the principle of karma and on the other side is Godliness. God metes out justice to offenders who do not teke office to be a sin. People who are absolutely stubborn and glaive logic to hide their of thorny trees, of pigs and buffaloes they have to take and receive the thrashings before s their final release form the cycle of rebirth takes place. For such people God uses justice and punishes then for their welfare. Use of justice should be done with an offender and he should be penalized so that he may not repeat the mistake. Being lenient with an offender and setting him free will not deter him form committing crime. Therefore justice is done with an offender but for the who accepts his sins andfaultas who anxiously repents and takes refuge in God violate your diet restrictions fall sick go to a doctor then he does not punish you rather he sympathizes with you and gives you mincing so that you are cured. Similarly God removes the with flaws in our intellect and those associated with out karma thereby purifying us. This is Gods compassion.
There is a difference between people with offensive tendencies and tendencies towards a sick mentality. Justice is meted out to offenders while compassion to such mentally sick people because being helpless they need support.
A mother punishes a stubborn child. It is mother mercy on the other hand she shows compassion to the child who is open to love and feeds him caresses him. The mother wants the welfare of both. Similarly God is the mother of all mothers father of all fathers and solely wants our well being. God is just as well as compassion. But in reality God is affectionate towards all beings in whole. In God words.
Knowing Me as enjoyer of all sacrifices and austerities the supreme Lord of all worlds the disinterested friend of al beings he attains peace.
Due to our weakness we fall into the trap of lust we are enraged we become greedy and we slip back into old habits we may them to be subbed. if these habits trouble you then call out to God. Oh Achyauta (one who does not retire form his position) Oh Govind Oh anata (infinite) Madhya He will surely help you because He is kind God name and satsang are the tow means by which god’s grace is made to shower upon oneself. If the bad habits don’t treble you and you don’t believe in of at all then He the dispenser of justice will whirla the wheel of punishment on you. Punishment will make you suffer the consequence of your offence and will pass by compassion will give you the fruit of your virtuous deed and will also pass by. But this is not all that God is God is the well wished of the entrireliving community.
God has not created you to become a sycophant. That is a misconception that by just worshipping God a little by deluding Him into flattery we will make Him happy just as people get their work done by flattering an officer a minister. This is very mean mentality. God is not that kind who wants you to be a slake of him and flatter him for your welfare. He has vies you bath to get taste of the nectar of your eternal nature. He has created you to make you his friend.
The yogi is thought to be superior to the accretes and even superior to men of knowledge (mere scholars) he is also superior to man of action there fore (you strive to) be a yogi Arjuna.’
In other words be on with me can union happen between a salve and his master Union can be only of the same class (a live being and god belong to the same class).
A living being is a part of indestructible God and is therefore conscious pure and blissful.’
God is amicable by nature He is merciful towards those who find out and accept there faults and try to remove it by repenting and are restless to perform a deed which will aid in its repentance. God metes out justice to an offender who does not accept his fault. If you commit a mistake God will fear in you. If you repent and ask for His guidance then you will get fearlessness. That is why God is compassionate righteous and the supreme well wisher.
One who in anticipation of a good future allows available opportunity to slip away finds it very difficult to get the opportunity again even he be willing to avail of it.’

Saints Raise Campaign against Attacks on Indian culture

Saints have decided to raise voice against newspapers and TV Channels engaged in vilification of India culture. Exhorting the people of India they said:
Mahant Shri Ramswarupdasji Maharaji, President Akhil Bhartiya Chatussampradyua Akhada Parishad:
The great preceptor and spiritual discourser Sant Sri Asaramji is always heard blowed the conch of Indian culture throughout the world. Why a vilification campaign has been set in motion ageist the same Sant Sri Asaramji by a cheap newspapers and equally cheat TV channels is a question that requires to be probed in depth. By and large most of the competent masters have been chosen for attack and it is because they are the ones who provide direction land strength to the nation.
Brethren The day you decide to stop watching these unscrupulous channels, they will meet immediate death. Your watching these channels alone sustains them.”
Mahant Harigiriji Maharaj, Mahamantri Akhada Parishad: Today we find in the media certain elements that are extremely selfish. Instead of playing in the hands of foreign powers media should act in a non partisan manner.”
Mahamandaleshwar Shri Sunil Shastiji: Why is it that Indian culture is being denigrated using median as a toll? The channels that vilify India culture or Sant Sri Asaramji Bapu should be boycotted. we should spit on the face of such stooges of foreign powers. Woman should greet them by throwing chappals on their faces.”

Conspirers Exposed

The endless chain of conspiracies being perpetrated for a long time against param pujay Sant Asaramji Bapu by a gang of intriguers supported by traitors who have been spending crores of rupees to malign India culture was exposed on A2Z News Channel. The truth of the conspiracies being perpetrated by enemies of India culture against Pujya Bapuji, who is doing all within his reach to spread the invaluable message of India culture throughout the world was revealed in a sting operation wherein Raju Lasmbu who had been Expelled form the Ashram, unwitting gave details of the nefarious activates of his gang before the spy camera.
Raju chandak alias Raju Labu was burning with hatred as envy after being expelled form the Ashram because of his self willed an indecent behavior. Consequently he hatched a horrendous conspiracy against the Ashram. To give effect to the conspiracy, he had been proceeding in a well planned manner form the year 2005 itself. In furtherance of his malicious intent he associated with ofter people expelled form the Ashram and formed a gang of suck people.
This gang of schemers made use of newspapers, TV channels and advocates to carry out its plans. The gang has the evil intention of extorting money form the Ashram by way of repeated threats. Faced with failure of their wicked plans, they collude with anti Hindu elements andset in motion a series of diabolical attempts at shaking people’s faith in Pujya Bapuji.
These people made extensive use of the media in order to tarnish the spanking image of Pujya Bapuji and the Ashram in the eyes of the society; to mailing the Ashram and the Gurukuls and to intimate or get intimated false legal cases against the Ashram. Raju, who used the media as a tool in this unholy drive, says Media people are kids. Whatever will publish it as a scandal. Their sole intention is to increase T.R.P.”
The circulation and T.R.P of such newspapers and channels ultimately comes down. The newspapers and TV Channels that provide a platform to such people should now open their eyes.
The intentions of the conspirers are so foul that are doing everything in their power to destroy the very existence of the Ashram and are spending money like water to that end. Raju is just a part of this anit national gang. Who are the people providing these anti national anit social, anit religion and anit culture conspires with fabricated stores? Now such people stand exposed before the people of Gujarat as also before the country at large.
Another mastermind of the sinste campaign was Amrit Prajuapti a Vaidya by profession who has corssed all limits of depravity. His dirty mind was unveiled by the false and fabricated allegations of moral turpitual he levelled against pujya Bapuji. To further his nefarious designs he produced a Burke Clad woman before the media and made her level false, imaginary and baseless allegations against pujya Bapuji.But later in the course of interrogation he admitted that the Burka clad woman was Nome other than his own wife. Raju utterances captured in the sting operator ion too corroborated this fact.
Exposing another front runner of the vilification campaign the so called Aghori Raju said before the hidden camera. In the evening the Aghori told me that he wanted liquor for offering it to the Divine Mother. I provide him liquor everyday for him form morning till evening. He asked for the services of a Prostitute also. Further in the course of his conversation he also revealed the fact that he had arranged a sum of 40000 rupees to be given by a political party to the sorcerer who wears black clothes.
One Mahelndra Chawla too was presented before the media to make false allegations against Shir Narayan Sai. Revealing this Raju Lambu made Mahendra chawals world crores of rupees. We will get you so much publicity that you too will get crores of rupees.”
Raju Lambu also revealed before the hidden camera the names of important members of his gang Diesh Mahendra Chawals, Avin Verma Vina Chauhan, Amrit Parapet Defender etc. People of this country andparicularly sadhakas need to beware of such enemies of the society. Such people should be interrogated and exposed before the society.
In site of the conspiracies perpetrated by these people to shake people’s faith the number of people gathering to listen to pujya Bapuji is breaking all records and gives an affectionate advice to the conspirers, Take a cue form this at least and let wiser sense prevail on you.”
It is worth mentioning that once pundit Madan Mohan Malviya Placed his hand on pundit Nehru’s shoulder and pointing towards the mammoth gathering that had collected on the Kumbha festival he said Look Nehru India is a predominantly religious country. Whoever tries to shake the faith of the people of this country will be destroyed by the people.”
Indians can tolerate a lot many things but they cannot tolerate attacks on their faith. Whoever has tried to do it has been made to bite dust. The faith of people in saints and great personages of Indian culture has remained unshakeable.
Faruq Mohammad a Muslim social journalist of Surat (Gujarat) writes, I have seen with my own eyes that in the Ashram the message given is that of love selfless serives Bhakti and peace. It is difficult to fool even thou shads but Bapu has cast a spell on three to four crores of people.”

The Spiritual Revolutionist

Do you know who has illumined the whole world with the spiritual esoteric knowledge of the scriptures making it lucid and interesting? Who has satiated not only India but the whole world with his ambrosial utterances? Who has placed before the world the lofty ideal of selfless service along with that of satsang for the first times?
We know the only answer to these questions is going to be self reposed well versed in scriptures established in Brahman master of Yoga, worthy of being remembered at the start of day, param pujya Sent Sri Asaramji Bapu.”

Pujyashree messages is all men should shun envy and malice and should live life with mutual love and affection and thus build an ideal society which shall put India on a pinnacle in the comity of nations (Vishwaguru) in no time.
Trying to express His greatness in words Mahamandaleshwar shri Praamatmandji Maharaji Says In the form of the Most honorable, deserving to be adorned with infinite titles worthy of being remembered at the day an incarnation of Era the supreme saint sri Asaramji Maharaji we have got back out Buddha Tulsidas and surdas are with us in His from Paying reverence to him is akin to paying homage to kabirji and Mahatma Buddha.”
We find in pujya Bapuji the dexterity of Lord Rama the equanimity and affection for the swami Sri Lilashahji Maharaji and Juneshwarji Maharaji the compassion of Buddha the austerity Mahavira Swami the penchant for selfless service of Hanumanji the steadfastness in sadhana of Guru Nanak the Vedanta ecstasy of Swami Ramatiratha the rapturous devotional chatting of chatianya Mahaprabhu and the firm stance in knowledge of Ramana Maharishi all rolled in one.

Pujya Bapuji successfully represented India in the world Parliament of Religious held in September 1993 AD. While other orators were given 3 to 5 minutes time. People listened to pujya Bapuji with rapt attention for 55 minute on one occasion and 75 minutes on the others. In Bapuji satsang on finds an excellent technique of blending the knowledge propounded by Rishis with modern life and producing a harmonious synthesis relevant to present day society.
Pujyashree says Morality can not survive in the absence of spirituality and materialism inevitably brings sorrow and misery eschews andmisery.If we can do no good it is all right but we must eschew the evil tendencies. We cannot world peace by proclaiming rather we should be engrossed in self peaces on order to achieve it. You endeavors should be notated by divine love not attachment hatred greed and delusion. Real progress and real joy is not possible without spatiality. Mataerial progress may give elation and comforts but is can never provide permanent happiness. Therefore give significance to spiritual progress so that progress of all kinds becomes possible’
In His satsang discourse Bapuji leads people to laughter coupled with progressively faster chating of the seed mantra which produces energy up to 70,000 Bovis. This exercise eradicates thought pollution on one hand and helps the devotees to achieve faster progress in spiritual sphere on the others.
In pujya Bapuji satsang we find a marvelous blend of the depth of Meditaion Yoga the joy of Bhakti Yoga and the knowledge of the Ultimate Truth of Junan Yoga. In addition to that karma yoga finds a perfect expression in His life The society is being benefited today by a number altruistic activates begins carried out under Bapuji auspices. Pipal or Banyan tree sanctified by him with divine power are found inmost of the Ashram people not only get peaces and happiness by circumambulation them they also get their wisher granted.
The Diksha given by Him in Vedic mantras brings total transformations in the lives of sad kakas. They make al round progress in life physical mantel and sptitual. Various benefits lives (Out of these the chief one shall be described in the forthcoming Rishi Prasad issue). It is impossible to state all the benefits accruing form Mantra Diksha .
