 भगवान्‌ का भक्त होने का तात्पर्य है-’मैं भगवान्‌ का ही हूँ’ इस प्रकार अपनी अहंताको बदल देना।भगवान्‌ में मन लगाने का तात्पर्य है-भगवान्‌ को अपना मानना।भगवान्‌ का पूजन करने का तात्पर्य-सब कार्य पूजाभावसे करना।भगवान्‌ को नमस्कार करने का तात्पर्य है-अपने-आपको भगवान्‌ के समर्पित करना।


 जब तक 'तू' और 'तेरा' जिन्दे रहेंगे तब तक परमात्मा तेरे लिये मरा हुआ है। 'तू' और 'तेरा' जब मरेंगे तब परमात्मा तेरे जीवन में सम्पूर्ण कलाओं के साथ जन्म लेंगे। यही आखिरी मंजिल है। विश्व भर में भटकने के बाद विश्रांति के लिए अपने घर ही लौटना पड़ता है। उसी प्रकार जीवन की सब भटकान के बाद इसी सत्य में जागना पड़ेगा, तभी निर्मल, शाश्वत सुख उपलब्ध होगा।

Angaarak Chaturthi (Tuesday, 1st Jun'10)

Angaarak Chaturthi (Tuesday, 1st Jun'10)


Pujya Bapuji has described great significance of the upcoming Mangalwar Chaturthi tithi falling on Tuesday, 1st Jun'10, also known as Angaarak Chaturthi. As mentioned by Pujya Bapuji during the Maagh Purnima Satsang in Delhi, doing japa, tapa, upvaas, daan, sat-karm on this sacred tithi affords the same religious merits as done during a solar eclipse. Stressing on the sadhaks to especially take benefit of this tithi, Pujya Bapuji mentioned that performing japa, tapa, daan, etc. during a solar eclipse is 10 lakh times more beneficial as compared to an ordinary day. The same fruits are obtained if one performs japa, tapa, daan-punya, etc. on a Mangalwar Chaturthi tithi. This wonderful yog is especially beneficial for rapid spiritual advancement of sadhaks.

pujya Bapuji mentioned that these tithis are like boons (vardaan) to sadhaks, which are given by the Lord Himself when He decides to shower His splendor and majesty (vaibhav) among the bhaktas.

Following are some tips for sadhaks to derive maximum benefits from this pious tithi:

1. If possible, take a holiday from your office, service, etc. to reap rich spiritual benefits on this day.

2. Observe Maun (silence) or speak as little as possible.

3. Devote maximum time to japa & meditation (dhyan). Since doing japa on this day is 10 lakh times more beneficial as compared to any other ordinary day, even 1 mala of mantra-japa will be equivalent to 10 crore japa. Performing japa on this tithi, therefore, has anant-fal (endless fruits) and sadhaks should look to reap maximum benefits from it.

4. Pujya Bapuji advised that if one is trying to overcome obstacles, struggles in his personal life, making use of this tithi as mentioned above will enable him to easily tide over the troubles, as compared to his individual level efforts to resolve the problem. As often heard in Satsang, “Jiska isht majboot hota hai, uska anisht nahin hota”.

5. As per Pujya Bapuji, students will also be able to derive great benefits from this day if they:

1. Do upvaas (fast) and stay on milk only.

2. Observe Maun (silence).

3. Perform Japa of Saraswatya Mantra.

4. Do not watch films, etc.

6. As per Pujya Bapuji, one should clean his sadhana room with Gau Jharan Ark before this japa tithi, and do gau-chandan dhoop, deep (diya) in the room.

7. On the night before Mangalwar Chaturthi (Monday), the sadhak should make a firm resolve, “Tomorrow, I will observe upvaas (fast), maun (silence), study the holy scriptures & other Satsang books like Divya Prerna Prakash,Jeevan Vikas & Ishvar ki Or, and will engage myself constantly in japa and meditation (dhyan).”

8. Pujya Bapuji advised that sadhaks should do japa of the aarogya-mantra (health mantra) as well on this auspicious day. Sadhaks can do a few mala of the health mantra in order to attain siddhi of the mantra. Please click here for Health Mantra.

9. Pujya Bapuji further advised that sadhaks should definitely do some mala jap of the aashirvaad mantra (bonus mantra). Pujya Bapuji has blessed many sadhaks with a aashirvaad/bonus mantra as well, by japa of which sadhaks will not have heart-attack, high b.p, low b.p etc. The sadhaks who have received this ‘bonus’ mantra should definitely do japa of a few mala of this mantra too, as mentioned by Pujya Bapuji in the evening Satsang in Delhi on 31st Jan’10.

10. Pujya Bapuji also mentioned in Delhi Satsang that there is a mantra which can be chanted by sadhaks in case they suddenly encounter some problem (achaanak koi musibat aa jaaye) e.g. office boss harassing a sadhak, etc. Sadhaks who have been blessed with this mantra should do japa of this mantra as well. Performing japa of this mantra will blow away the impediments that are faced, if any, by the sadhaks. More details of this mantra may be seen at the following link:

11. Pujya Bapuji advised that if any sadhaks are facing court case problems (e.g. false cases of implication, etc.), they should do japa of the following mantra to get rid of the same:

पवन तनय बल पवन समाना

बुद्धि विवेक विज्ञान निधाना

कवन सो काज कठिन जग माहि

जो नहीं होहि तात तुम पाहि

Sadhaks can also do seva of doing 1 mala japa of this mantra with sankalp that all false court cases which have been leveled by conspirators against Pujya Bapuji are nullified.

12. In the recently concluded Ujjain Satsang, Pujya Bapuji stayed with the sadhaks on the vyaas-peeth during the solar eclipse (surya grahan) on 15th Jan’10. During the grahan period, Pujya Bapuji Himself and sadhaks did saamuhik paath of Aditya Hriday Stotra. Since this tithi on 1st Jun ’10 is equivalent to a solar eclipse in terms of giving religious merits, sadhaks may do 1 paath of Aditya Hriday Stotra as well, in order to remove any obstacles (vighn-baadha) that they are facing in their life. They may also add the sankalp that all the anti-elements working against our nation and culture (sanskriti) are destroyed.

Aditya Hriday Stotra is available at the following location:

13. Pujya Bapuji has advised that one should do Vishraanti Prayog on this day. Vishraanti Prayog involves gazing at the picture of Om, Svastik or Pujya Gurudev and chanting Omkar mantra (gunjan) in between, if any useless thoughts come in the mind. Pujya Bapuji has advised that sadhaks can do this vishraanti prayog for 30 minutes at a time, and perform 4-5 courses of this prayog during the entire day. (Note: Sadhaks can also extend the time of the prayog from 30 minutes for higher benefits.) A key point stressed by Pujya Bapuji is that sadhaks should jap of the Omkaar mantra with sankalp that japa is being performed for Ishvar Preeti (love of God) & Ishvar Praapti (attaining God)

14. Pujya Bapuji advises that sadhaks should do japa of the Brahmacharya mantra as well on such auspicious tithis, and attain siddhi of the same. Sadhaks can therefore do few mala japa of the Brahmcharya mantra too on this pious Mangalwar Chaturthi tithi. Details of this mantra are available at the following link:

http://www.ashram.org/Publications/ArticleView/tabid/417/smid/1452/ArticleID/175/reftab/539/t/Brahmcharya-Raksha-Mantra/Default.aspx

15. Since doing japa on this tithi is 10 lakh times more beneficial than an ordinary day, sadhaks may also do a seva of doing 1 mala of japa of Maha-Mrityunjay Mantra on this day with the sankalp that Pujya Gurudev has great health, fame, long life and His Divine message of Satsang is spread to all corners of the world. In short, sadhaks may do japa with sankalp for vriddhi (increase) of aayu, aarogya, yash and kirti of Pujya Gurudev.

Shri Sureshanandji has advised in Satsang that whenever sadhaks do japa of a mantra for someone, they should first do japa 11 times of the same mantra themselves, and then do japa for the concerned person. Likewise, in the above case, sadhaks may do japa of Maha-Mrityunjay Mantra 11 times first before doing 1 mala of japa dedicated to Pujya Gurudev.

माँ




कमर झुक गई



माँ बूढ़ी हो गई



प्यार वैसा ही है



याद है



कैसे रोया बचपन में सुबक-सुबककर



माँ ने पोंछे आँसू



खुरदरी हथेलियों से



कहानी सुनाते-सुनाते



चुपड़ा ढेर सारा प्यार गालों पर



सुबह-सुबह रोटी पर रखा ताज़ा मक्*खन



रात में सुनाई



सोने के लिए लोरियाँ



इस उम्र में भी



थकी नहीं



माँ तो माँ है।

एक बार सदगुरु से मंत्र मिल गया, फिर उसमें शंका नहीं करनी चाहिए

मंत्र चाहे जो हो, किन्तु यदि उसे पूर्ण विश्वास के साथ जपा जाय तो अवश्य फलदायी होता

सज्जनो ! सत्संगसे जो लाभ होता है, वह साधनसे नहीं होता । साधन करके जो परमात्मतत्वको प्राप्त करना है, वह कमाकर धनी होनेके सामान है । किन्तु सत्संग सुनना तो गोदमें जाना सामान है । गोद चले जानेसे कमाया हुआ धन स्वतः मिल जाता है । सत्संगके द्वारा ऐसी-ऐसी चीजें मिलती हैं, जो बरसोंतक साधन करनेसे भी नहीं मिलतीं । इसलिए भाई ! सत्संग मिल जावे तो जरुर करना चाहिये

त्याग

जीवन में त्याग का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। सब कुछ त्यागने की शक्ति होनी चाहिए। जिनके पास त्यागने की शक्ति होती है वे ही वास्तव में भोग सकते हैं। जिसके पास त्यागने की शक्ति नहीं है वह भोग भी नहीं सकता। त्याग का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। यश मिल गया तो यश के त्याग का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए, धन के त्याग का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए, सत्ता के त्याग का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए।


सत्ता भोगने की इच्छा है और सत्ता नहीं मिल रही है तो आदमी कितना दुःखी होता है ! सत्ता मिल भी गई दो-पाँच साल के लिए और फिर चली गई। कुर्सी तो दो-पाँच साल की और कराहना जिन्दगी भर। यही है बाहरी सुख का हाल। विकारी सुख तो पाँच मिनट का और झंझट जीवन भर की।

सत्ता मिली तो सत्ता छोड़ने का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। दृश्य दिखा तो बार-बार दृश्य देखने की आसक्ति को छोड़ने का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। धन मिला तो धन का सदुपयोग करने के लिए धन छोड़ने का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। यहाँ तक कि अपना शरीर छोड़ने का सामर्थ्य होना चाहिए। जब मृत्यु आवे तब शरीर को भीतर से पकड़कर बैठे न रहें। चलो, मृत्यु आयी तो आयी, हम तो वही हैं चिदघन चैतन्य चिदाकाश स्वरूप.... सोऽहं...सोऽहम्। ऐसे त्यागी को मरने का भी मजा आता है और जीने का भी मजा आता है।
इस संसार रूपी अरण्य में कदम-कदम पर काँटे बिखरे पड़े हैं। अपने पावन दृष्टिकोण से तू उन काँटो और केंकड़ों से आकीर्ण मार्ग को अपना साधन बना लेना। विघ्न मुसीबत आये तब तू वैराग्य जगा लेना। सुख व अनुकूलता में अपना सेवाभाव बढ़ा लेना। बीच-बीच में अपने आत्म-स्वरूप में गोता लगाते रहना, आत्म-विश्रान्ति पाते रहना।
सब घट मेरा साँईया खाली घट न कोय।




बलिहारी वा घट की जा घट परगट होय।।



कबीरा कुँआ एक है पनिहारी अनेक।



न्यारे न्यारे बर्तनों में पानी एक का एक।।



कबीरा यह जग निर्धना धनवंता नहीं कोई।



धनवंता तेहू जानिये जा को रामनाम धन होई।।
