Hanuman Jayanti=2012=6 th APRIL

Hanuman Jayanti Introduction HanumanJayanti is a hindu festival celebrated all over India to commemorate the birth of Lord Hanuman. He was born to (Wind-God) Kesari and Anjani. According to legends he was born as a monkey god to serve Parmatama Lord Ram. A Brief Background Hanumanji was given birth after a number of divine events. Anjani performed penance and Lord Shiva was pleased, so blessed her.He was granted a son after Vayu, the Wing God also blessed him. Lord Hanuman was born on the chaitra Shukla Purnima(Full moon day on the Hindu Calendar Month of Chaitra). Also called by the names, Maruti, Pavanputra, Bajrangbali and Mahavira. Specialities of Hanuman In most Hanuman mandirs, Lord Hanuman is worshiped either along with Lord Ram or seperately in temples.Also known as an avatara of Lord Rama, he is considered the God of power (Maruti).He was a brahmachari or celebate. Hanuman became a legend mainly for his unflinching devotion and loyalty for Paramatma Lord Ram. He was an ideal karma yogi for his fearless, selfless service, humility and devotion for Lord Ram.Lord Hanuman is the only deity that cannot be troubled by negative energies. Celebration Priests bathe the idol of Hanuman and smear it with oil and sindoor. Special prayers are held and Hanuman Chalisa is also recited by his devotees. This festival is more important among brahmacharis, body builders and wrestlers. Spiritual discourses are held on this day from dawn and prasads are distributed only after sunset. Saturday and Tuesday are considered as auspicious days to worship Lord Hanuman.Hanumanji is considered as a symbol of strength and energy. Lord Ram is rememberedand prayed on this day. What is hanuman”s original name? Scholars argue that immediately after the birth of Hanuman his mother Anjana named him Sunder(handsome boy) as he was extremely charming owing to the Divine Power imbibed in him. In support of this supposition a number or scholars say that the fifth chapter of the Ramcharitmanas which abounds in great and glorious deeds of Hanuman has been entitled as Sunder Kand (so also in Valmiki Ramayana).

राम नवमी (श्री साईं नाथ महाराज जी का जन्मोत्सव)=Sai Baba”s Teachings

April 1st, 2012

ॐ सांई राम

श्री राम नवमी(श्री साईं नाथ महाराज जी का जन्मोत्सव)

Sai Baba”s Teachings

Sai Baba of Shirdi is the epitome of reverence a guiding force who generates supreme faith and confidence among his devotees looking for salvation and in quest of coming out of the drudgery of living. As a divine mother he is saturated with love for those who seek him. With his mission of making people about the divine consciousness and transcending the limits of mortal body, his teachings are guiding his devotees to the path of salvation. People are blessed who follow his teachings.

Among the teachings of Sai Baba of Shirdi there are the cardinal principles of Sai Path called “Shraddha” and “Saburi”. Sai Baba looks for these two qualities in his devotees. Here are the teachings and philosophies of Sai Baba of Shirdi.

Shraddha

“Shraddha” is a Sanskrit word, which roughly means faith with love and reverence. Such faith or trust is generated out of conviction, which may not be the result of any rational belief or intellectual wisdom, but a spiritual inspiration. According to Sai Baba of Shirdi, steadfast love in God is the gateway to eternity. Baba”s teaching, both direct and indirect explicate the significance of “Shraddha”. Baba reiterates the spiritual guidance of Shri Krishna to Arjun - “Whosoever offer to Me with love or devotion, a leaf, a flower, a fruit or water, that offering of pure love is readily accepted by Me”.

Saburi

“Saburi”; means patience and perseverance. Saburi is a quality needed throughout the path to reach the goal. This quality must be ingrained in a seeker from day one, least he looses his stride and leaves the path half way

Purity

For Sai Baba it was not the purity of the body but inner purity that mattered. No amount of physical and external cleansing would serve any purpose if the man remained impure in mind and heart. Therefore, Baba cautioned His devotees not to make austerity as an end itself, lest they should indulge in physical mortification.

Compassion

Himself an epitome of compassion and love, Sai Baba taught compassion among his disciples. Baba often told His devotees, “Never turn away anybody from your door, be it a human being or animal”.

Complete Surrender to the Guru

Sai Baba put Guru on a high pedestal of reverence. For Him Guru was the profound base of the path of devotion. Pointing to his physical frame, “This body is my house. I am not here. My Guru (Master) has taken me away”. He asked for complete surrender to the “Guru”.

Sai Baba”s Teachings through “Udi” and “Dakshina”

Udi

Udi or the sacred ash was produced from the perpetual fire called “dhuni” lit by Sai Baba in Dwarkamai at Shirdi. Explaining the meaning of life He would refer to Udi and taught that like Udi all the visible phenomena in the world are transient. Through this example Sai Baba wished to make his devotees understand the sense of discrimination between the unreal and the real. Udi taught the devotees discrimination or vivek.

Sai Baba of Shirdi

Sai Baba of Shirdi was a crown jewel among Saints. He lived his entire life out in a small and obscure village in India. The villagers of Shirdi each claimed him as a member of their own religion, Muslim or Hindu, but really he came to make peace between them and he always encouraged each to stick to his own religious path.

He drew devotees from all over the country though he never traveled and never cared for fame. Over and over his devotees found he knew their innermost thoughts and details of their lives. He effected cures, conferred health, happiness, and prosperity, and made childless couples conceive.

His real purpose though was to awaken in them a longing for the spiritual life. Thousands thought of him as a wonderful saint with miraculous powers but his innermost circle knew him to be in incarnation of God himself. Some said of Datta, others of Shiva, still others saw ecstatic visions of their own beloved Guru or chosen Ishta (personalized icon of God)

while gazing at Him. He himself said only that he was the humble servant of God and pleased and furthered all who came in contact with him. Many books have been written about Shirdi Sai Baba but the Shri Sai Satcharita, the story of Sai Baba”s life and actions (quoted from below) was written in his own lifetime and is best known among Sai devotees. Just before leaving his body he told a disciple he would be reborn in a certain village 8 years hence and so it came to pass.)

Sai Baba was first seen as a youth of sixteen sitting under a neem tree in Shirdi. None knew his origin or past. Even then he seemed to be full of the knowledge of Brahman. He had no desire for worldly objects, even in dream. He kicked out Maya (illusion) and Mukti (illumination) was serving at his feet.

This young lad, fair, smart, and very handsome, was first seen under a Neem tree seated in an Asan (meditative posture). The people of the village were wonderstruck to see such a young lad practicing hard penance, not minding heat and cold. By day he associated with none. by night he was afraid of nobody. People were wondering whence that young chap turned up. His form and features were so handsome that a mere look endeared him to all.

He went to nobody”s door, always sat near the Neem tree.Outwardly he looked very young; but by his action He was really a great soul. He was the embodiment of dispassion and an enigma to all. A saint name Gangagir who frequented Shirdi said of him on first settingeyes on him “Blessed is Shirdi, that it got this precious jewel“. Another saint by name Anandanath said “This is a precious diamond in reality, though he looks like an ordinary man. You will realize this in the near future.”

Peace or calm was his ornament and he was the repository of wisdom. He had no love for perishable things and was always engrossed in self-realization. He did not know or care for honor or dishonor. The name of Allah was always on his lips. His inside was as calm as the deep sea. Though he sat in one place, he knew all the transactions of the world. Though a Siddha (realized being), he acted like a sadhaka (disciple on the spiritual path). He was meek, humble, and pleased all.

(Sharing with Shirdi Baba”s Love)

OM SAIRAM ॐ सांई राम

Happy Gudi Padwa=on 23rd MARCH-2012= & Happy Ugaadhi

March 21st, 2012

Happy Gudi Padwa

Happy Ugaadhi

The True Birth Day of

Universe

Does the title seem “” Too far-fetched””? Fellow Indian [nay Bharatiya] friends,have we, the descendents of great sages [seientists],ever bothered to find the meaning of the following Sankalp Shloka which we recite before performing any pooja?

This gives us the time as on today (according to earth time frame) from the birht of the present universe!

Let”s count it how!

At the poles the earth has day and night of 6 months each. So the “north or south pole” day = 1 equator year.

And that 1pole-year (called as Divya Varsha) = 360 years (not 365, as lunar month is of 30 days)

1200 Divya Varshas (1000+200sandhi)= 360 x 1200=4,32,000yrs.=Kali-yuga.

The start of a “Yuga” is marked by a conjuction of 7 heavenly bodies, viz.Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, & Saturn., (The ones which affect the Earth atmosphere.)And this is proved by today”s astronomists.

European astronomist Belly says “According to astronomical calculations of Hindus, the present period of the Earth, Kali-yuga,commenced 3102 yrs. B. C. on 20th Feb at 2hrs. 27 mins. & 30 secs. They say a conjuction of 7 heavenly bodies,then took place;their tables(Panchang) shows it.,& is exactly confirmed by our own current tables.” Now isn”t it astounding, the calculations are thousands of yrs. old !! (see Yajur-veda ..) And this happens at the begining of every “4,32,000yrs.” period(yuga.)

Resuming our calculations, Kali = 1; So this conjuction occurs once.

Dwapar-yuga (dwa =2) has this conjuction twice,Treta(=3)yuga has thrice &Krita/Satya(=4)yuga has it 4 times. So also the no. of years in them are 2, 3,& 4, times that ofKali-yuga respectively.All “4 Yugas” added make a Maha-yuga..

Kali(1)+Dwapar(2)+Treta(3)+Krita(4)=10=1
Maha-yuga.=10×4,32,000yrs

71Maha-yugas(+9600 yuga-sandhis)=1 Manvantar (the current 7th one isnamed Vaivasvat). 14 such Manvantars =1000 Maha-yugas=1 Kalpa
(Shweta-waraha Kalp in this case) =1000×4,32,000=432 crore yrs.

Now isn”t it mind boggling even to imagine these figures !

The time taken by our Sun & planets (Surya-mandal) to revolve around our galaxy Milky Way is 1 Manvantar.

All galaxies (named as Vishwadev) together form a circle called Parameshti-mandal, which revolves around Swyam-bhuv (meaning self-originated) Mandal in one Kalp time.We say that the galaxies move around “Black Hole”(?) in today”s parlance.Swyam-bhuv ! ;how a very apt name for a “Black Hole”! in today”s parlance.Swyam-bhuv ! ;how very apt a name for a “Black Hole”!

Universe personified as BRAHMA who has a lifespan of 100 yrs.;(1 Kalpa yrs.=12hours in BRAHMA”s time-frame.) Universe is born at the begining of BRAHMA”s each day,( of 1 Kalpa) & dissolves itself in to nothingness at night (of 1 Kalpa), only to be Reborn again onBRAHMA”s next morning.

Now lets calculate the no.of yrs.passed, since our present Universe was born !

Till today 6 Manvantars are over (= 6 X .. yrs.)( ?… see above )

Of the 7th Vaivasvat Manvantar, 27 Maha-yugas (add 27 X43,20,000yrs. ) are also done.

Of the 28th Maha-yuga, Krita,(Satya)Treta, & Dwapar yugas are also over. The current 28th Kali-yugastarted 5108 years ago. on Feb 20th at 2 hrs 27 mins & 30 secs.,the Varsha Pratipada day, when the Sun and above mentioned planets were in conjunction.This has been verified by today”s astronomists.;It matches with today”s calculations about the years of existence of our galaxy & Universe Hence for any astronomical calculations, reference point of starting of this 28th Kali-yuga is used, though not named so. (Due to our powerless & gut-less condition.)

Our vital link (unblical cord) of Sanskrit knowledge being broken the
mental salvery of biased Western thought seems to have fouled our
blood, making us ingorant and indifferent to our ancient wisdom.Fellow Bharatiyas come lets take a vow / sankalp to understand “the above Sankalp” on this “Earth time-frame” Brith day of our present Unverse,“The Gudi Padwa” where the Sun is -in —– Raashi and Moon in Chitra Raashi on full moon day.

Ugadi or Gudhi Padwa marks the beginning of New Year

in Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and parts ofKarnataka.

This festival is known as Gudhi Padwa in Maharashtra and Ugadi in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.

Gudhi Padwa is considered one of the four most auspicious days in the year when people start new ventures.

It is believed that Lord Brahma, created the world on this day and so he is worshiped specially at this time.

Lord Vishnu too is said to have incarnated as Matsya, the fish, on this day.

A gudi (banner) with a swastika -marked metal pot and silk cloth is raised to announce victory and joy.Maharashtrian take the opportunity to honour their favourite leader, Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

People prepare for the New Year by cleaning and washing their houses and buying new clothes. On the festival day they decorate their houses with mango leaves and ‘rangoli’ designs, and pray for a prosperous new year, and visit the temples to listen to the

yearly calendar ’Panchangasravanam’ as priests makepredictions for the coming year.

Traditionally bitter leaves of the neem tree with jaggery were given as Prasad of Ugadi/Gudhi Padwa.

Gudhi Padwa is considered as an auspicious occasion to buy ornaments, house and other new things.

The festival is celebrated when the heat of sun began intensifying and the time of harvesting the crop has come.

The Two thoughts of

Gudi Padwa

Thought One

It is believed that on “Gudi Padva” :

The Universe was created by Brahma.
Satyuga (The Age of Truth and Justice) began.
Shri Rama returned to Ayodhya victorious, after having killed Ravana.
This is one of the 3 and a half days in the Hindu Lunar calendar, whose every moment is considered auspicious.
The festival is celebrated as Ugadi in Karnataka. Seven, Nine or eleven haystacks are placed on a farmland and are set alight. The ashes are mixed while ploughing the farm.

Thought Two

The “Gudi” consists of a wooden stick and a steel inverted copper or silver “loti” (jug) which symbolizes a flag post.

This
flag-post in turn symbolizes the Victory of Shree Ram over the Demon
King Ravana as a mark of triumph of good over evil. The Gudi also
symbolizes Shree Ram”s triumphant entry into Ayodhya.

The flag post also has a Spiritual significance. The
inverted empty “loti” symbolizes the “empty” ego. The “inverted” loti,
could mean an indication to look within (ourselves).

The open sky stands for “Ones true free spirit” away from the confines of the world.

A bitter-sweet mixture of neem leaves, jaggery and jeera is

consumed early in the morning.

The ladies dress in their traditional finery, purchase golden items, adorn their homes with orange flowers and jubilantly usher in peace and harmony on this day, their New Year”s

Science in the worship of the Gudi

The divine consciousness emanating during sunrise, absorbed at that time lasts longer. Thus the Gudi should be worshipped within 5-10 minutes after sunrise!

On Gudi Padwa, the waves consisting of the fire element (Tej tatva) and the creative element (Prajapati element) are activated on a large scale. The divine consciousness emanating during sunrise, absorbed at that time lasts longer. This consciousness is stored in the body cells and used as required. Hence the Gudi should be worshipped within 5-10 minutes of the sunrise.

Method of raising the Gudi

Position of the Gudi:
Care should be taken to raise the Gudi next to the main entrance of the house. The spot selected should be on the right side (when sighted fro the house) of the entrance. The right side symbolizes active state of the soul.

1. The place for raising the Gudi should be cleaned and then a Swastik rangoli should be drawn on the ground. Turmeric and vermilion (Haldi-kumkum) should be offered at the center of the Swastik.

2. While raising the Gudi, the ‘Shiva-Shakti’ element in the Universe should be invoked. This enables all the constituents of the Gudi to accept divine elements.

3. The Gudi symbolizes the ‘Sushumna nadi’ of our body. Hence, the Gudi should be raised at the entrance. And it should be kept tilted at an angle. - A Scholar (through the medium of Ms. Anjali Gadgil)

Prayer

‘O Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu! Please enable me to absorb the elements of creation, fire and Sun present in the atmosphere. Let the Divine consciousness present in these elements be preserved constantly. Let the energy thus received, be used for my spiritual practice.’

MAY THIS PADWA&UGAADHI

BRING SUCCESS,PROSPERITY

AND

HAPPINESSINOUR LIFE

Scene

It was really amazing to see the daily progress notes put by my seniors of previous years. Their dossier was almost an inch thick. Patients usually don’t last that long in a middle level government hospital. I mean either they get cured or else referred to the higher centre. Most of the times they just die…..but they don’t last this long…almost two years…in the same hospital.

I used to see them daily during rounds- sitting together and talking for hours. They were sharp enough to judge the temperament of doctors on round. It took only one day for them to understand that I like my patients present on their respective beds with no attendants or relatives to interfere, their case sheet spread in front of them and they themselves on their toes to speak out new problems and sufferings the moment I ask them. Except for that one precise hour when the round was in progress and one such hour in the evening – one can easily see them sitting together and talking endlessly.

“What about them?” I asked Mrs Jincy, the matron.

“What about whom?”

“Those three sitting under the sun all the time and chatting?”

“Oh,don’t you worry Doctor. This hospital has become their home. They have no place to go. Their families have left them to suffer at their own long long ago. They are abandoned. They know they are terminally ill and the moment they put their steps out of this hospital they are going to die not only because of their disease but more because of hunger and cold. So whenever their general condition improves a bit and we try to discharge them, they pretend as if something wrong happened with them overnight-become breathless, start feeling pain, stop eating and even start rolling in beds. This way they successfully escape discharge”

“But this not fair! If they are untreatable here they should be referred to tertiary care hospital. Unnecessarily they are blocking the beds meant for more deserving patients”

“Who cares Ma’am? Here the protocol is different. This hospital is not like the other overcrowded hospitals. Somehow we get much less patients than an average hospital should have. We are supposed to have a minimum of 150 indoor patients all the times or else…..”

I could read between the lines-what she meant to say. My sister has the same story. She is a government primary school teacher in a rural area. They are provided with three class rooms, three teachers and a specific amount of mid day meal to cover 150 students from class one to five. If the number of student drops down to 100 and below during any given calendar year then one teacher is withdrawn and posted elsewhere. Then the burden falls on to rest of the two. Hence to maintain the requisite student-teacher ratio every year few false nonexistent names are entered into the admission register. (You can easily find Aishwarya Rais, Salman Khans, Rajesh Khannas and Priyankas reading in various primary schools

) In extreme cases the passed out students of class five are readmitted back to class three. My sister gives a nice explanation to this too…at least by this way we prevent the ever-growing number of school dropouts every year. Middle school is at least five K.M. away and students are reluctant to walk that length everyday!!!!!!!……..

I preferred not to interfere anymore. Let them do whatever they wish in rest of their lives. Looking at them on daily basis gave me immense courage to face reality of life in a positive way. Here there are three persons who know they are fatally ill and have no hope or dream left in their lives but can still manage to laugh and enjoy!!! How could they????

I got the answer after the following series of events….

One fine day …. I saw the two men fighting on the grass just in front of the FMW. There was a little gathering around them but no one was trying to stop them. The moment they saw me, the crowd scattered and dispersed. These two gentlemen mumbled few words of apology and went to their respective beds. Their face, arms and other parts of the body were badly bruised. The lung cancer patient ( Ya! We doctors identify patients with their respective diseases,…..the diabetes patient…….the malaria patient…….the dengue patient..etc..etc) was already too dyspnoic ( breathless) . He was given oxygen support, artificial respiration and had to be shifted to I.C.U. But after three days he died. I could always mark a shadow of guilt on the face of the T.B.patient whenever I went to his bed- as if he wanted to say some thing to me. But he never said anything. Once I even tried to poke him but he kept looking blank. He was found dead in his bed exactly after a month. His death was relatively silent. Not even the patient of the next bed could know. He passed away in his sleep. As expected the girl also expired after 10 days…almost silently. There were no blood donors left in the family and enough blood could not be arranged from the blood bank which was about 200 Km. away. There was no one to get it from there. These explanations were all for documentation purposes only. We all had foreseen and expected her death…..and in the bundle of belongings found under the mattress of the bed which was home to her for the last two years, wrapped in a polythene, were neatly kept a stalk of letters –about 50 to 60 of them, written by the lung cancer and the T.B. patient-addressed to her.

So this was the reason…both men were in love with the girl, silently,unknown to each other. And the girl was too confused to reciprocate I think. Or may be she was silently enjoying this undue attention that she was able to draw for the first time in her life. Being terminally ill it was needless for her to express her true feelings to either of them. And this mutual love for each other was responsible for their extended life span. Truly, Love can blossom anywhere, can appear, survive and proliferate in the most adverse of situations. Till the time the men were oblivious of this 3-way love, it was alright. Then somehow the men could discover this, love got transformed to hatred. They got involved in a gruesome fight, and the very reason of their survival became the cause of their death. It’s painful yet true….

LOVE MAKES LIFE LIVE-LOVE MAKES LIFE DEAD
