Extracts from pravachans of our guruji

 GURU MAHIMA  

hymns in praise of guru

Bhavapavargo bhramato yada bhavej

Janasya tarhy acyuta sat samagamah

Sat sangamo yari tadaivasat gatau

Paravarse tvayi jayate matih

Srimad Bagawatham  ( 10.51.54 )

Muchukundha says

My dear lord while traveling in this material world through

different species of life, a living entity may progress towards liberation

but if by chance he comes in contact with a pure devotee he becomes

actually liberated from clutches of material energy and becomes a devotee of

Yourself the personality of God head.

We all human beings are living our lives and not enjoying our life. Without a goal we are proceeding in our life. One may argue that we do have well defined aim and we are working towards it. Aiming only for materialistic happiness is like running towards the horizon. The more you run the farther it goes. So at the end of 60-70 years race you find that you have come back to the same point from where you started. When you say that you are growing in life it means your life is decaying and death is approaching. And again continues the cycle of birth and death. Is there no way out to set free us from this chain? Leading a material world and going Through different species of life we may proceed towards liberalization. But the question is what about this Janma (birth). The answer that follows is even by chance if one gets associated with a pure devotee (sathguru) his material clutches gets unlocked and he becomes the devotee of Supreme Lord Himself. For example if a person is flowing in a violent current in a river and if he comes in contact with a wooden log holding it tightly he can reach to a safer place. Same way when we are drowning in this Samsara sagar a Guru comes as a log and takes us with Him to the abode Lord Krishna.Without assistance of log (guru) we cannot over come the violent current (materialistic world). Thus liberation is possible only when we surrender ourselves to a Sathguru without any reservations. What do you mean by liberalization and freedom from sufferings. It need not be attaining salvation. Even being in this world a Guru can make you realize the fruits of liberalization. Such is the divine power of a Sathguru. When you are under the shade of Sathguru one won't feel the heat flames of this false world but you would be surrounded by the coolness of dewdrop and the delight you experience is the state of liberalization. One would feel like sitting in an island surrounded by water , but the same water won't be disturbing us. Thus is the greatness of Guru. It is very difficult to explain a pond frog (born and brought up in pond) the magnificence of sea. It is the condition when one starts explaining the Mahima of Guru. The endless is being tried to be restricted by words.

ACHYUTHA PRIYAA

short stories to regain your faith

In the last issue we saw, how the youth did not lose his confidence and prayed to Bagawan Krishna to show him the right way. 

Even if there were no signs of rain, the youth was certain that His Krishna wouldn't leave him. As he was a bit tired due to the heat he sat under the shade of a tree and started chanting vigorously. He kept on chanting Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna and was completely drowned in the sweetness of Krishna Naama Sankeerthanam. Suddenly he felt something cool on his hand. When he opened his eyes and saw above he was surprised! ! ! 

A drop of rain fell on his hand. You may feel this as exaggerating or unbelievable ! ! ! Only if you do sincere chanting and true devotion you will understand the reality ! ! ! Science cannot prove Bhakthi! How far can science prove? Science is, just proving the effects of any existing thing nothing else ! ! ! How did this fall down from above? This is science? Why did an apple fall down, Newton's Law etc etc... Is this science? 

But how could the apple fall? Science is, proving the effects of an existing thing but from where do these effects take place? Who makes it happen? This is what our great bhakthas believed in ! ! ! The one who makes this happen is Bagawan Krishna ! ! ! 

The youth became very happy and tears rolled down from his eyes. He again thanked Bagawan Krishna for that one drop of rain. It was not raining at all, just one drop of rain fell on the youth. Still the youth was satisfied and remained confident ! ! ! He knew that Krishna will unquestionably shower HIS grace on him and again started chanting Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna ! ! ! !

Time was passing out but he was least worried about it. He was assured that Krishna would not leave him. Even at this point of time the youth's mind remained strong and positive. No matter whatever happens. Bagawan Krishna is with us ! ! ! Let us see what happens! ! ! Never ever should we lose hope and become pessimistic. As everyone say there is just one life ! We have taken birth here and at a certain point we have to face death! ! ! But before that lets enjoy the grace of Bagawan Krishna ! ! !

In actual this life is a boon given by Bagawan Krishna to enjoy HIS grace. We have enjoyed everything in our lives except Bagawan Krishna's mercy! ! ! We think that we have taken birth just now and this is the first time we are seeing this world. NO!!! This is not the true fact ! !  We have taken thousands of birth here and we are continuing to do so ! ! Nothing is new for us everything is old and we are used to it ! The one and only thing remaining to experience is Krishna Karunai (mercy of Krishna) ! ! !

Mercy of Krishna, Experiences of Krishna, Sanctity of Krishna and Darshan of Krishna only these things are remaining ! ! ! We keep on coming here just for this purpose. If we complete these things then we won't have any rebirth. For that we need blind unconditional faith like the yooth.

The youth was chanting with full blind faith and within few hours the clouds gathered.....

This is the power of Krishna Naamasankeertanam. To know what happened after this wait till the next issue and keep chanting......

power of divine grace

Radhekrishna, Jay Shree Poojyashree Shree Amma Jay Mahan Bramhashree Gopalavallidasar Due to Guruji's grace his disciples have had great experiences. The following experience is of my father and he had this experience before he developed interest in the sathsangs held by our Guruji. On a certain night, my father was sleeping in my room as I was out of town. That night he had a dream which he narrated to me the next day. He said that in his dream he heard a voice that: "there are certain radiations in this room. there is a sanctity here. see to it that this sanctity is maintained". Till that day my father had never seen or met Guruji. But see the mercy of Guruji that later, my father saw a blurred image of our Guruji also in the dream. And when my father actually met Guruji weeks later, he was awestruck because he realised that the Guruji's face actually matched with the blurred image of Guruji which he had seen in his dream!! All this is only beacuse of the causeless mercy of Guruji. Its only through Guruji that we, his disciples of Radhekrishna Sathsangam came to know the importance of chanting. See the mercy! Guruji himself wants that the world at large should come to know the about chanting and consequently the road to reach Krishna. Otherwise why would a person who has never seen Guruji actually get such a wonderful opportunity to see Him? When my father narrated this incident to me I had no words to thank Guruji for his mercy. I was too amazed to say anything!! When Gurujiamma had come to Dombivli my father told this incident to Gurujiamma and before leaving for chennai this is what Gurujiamma told me: "you have filled one room of your house with chanting. But this is not enough. Do so much chanting that the entire house is filled with chanting". This was a very very motivating sentence from Gurujiamma and the message was clear to me that Gurujiamma wanted me to do more and more chanting and that is why this experience occured. My saluations to Gurujiamma and Guruji.
