What is Karma: Action or Deed
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
Karma is a Sanskrit term. It means action or deed. Any physical or mental action is Karma. Thinking is mental Karma. Karma is the sum total of our acts, both in the present life and in the preceding births.
Karma means not only action, but also the result of an action. There is a hidden power in Karma or action termed 'Adrishta' which brings in fruits of Karmas for the individual. The consequence of an action is really not a separate thing. It is a part of the action and cannot be divided from it.
According to the Gita, any action done with Nishkamya Bhava (selflessness) is Karma.
Lord Krishna says: Work incessantly. Your duty is to work but not to expect the fruits thereof. The central teaching of the Gita is non-attachment to work. Breathing, eating, seeing, hearing, thinking, etc., are all Karmas. Thinking is real Karma. Raga-dvesha (likes and dislikes) constitute real karma.

Bhagwan Shree Krishna and the uni...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
One day, while playing in the fields, little Krishna secretly ate mud. His friends went and told Yashoda about this. When Krishna returned home, Maa Yashoda caught Krishna by his ears and scolded him for putting dirt in his mouth. Krishna promptly replied that he had had a fight with his friends in the morning and to take revenge they were all lying and that Yashoda shouldn't believe them. He said that she was being unfair as she believed them instead of believing her son.
Yashoda ordered, If you have not taken any mud, then open your mouth. I shall see for myself.
Krishna obediently opened his mouth. But when Yashoda peered into his mouth, she was wonderstruck. She saw the entire universe: the mountains the oceans, the planets, air, fire, moon and the stars in his small mouth. Yashoda was stunned and began to wonder whether she were dreaming or actually seeing something extraordinary. She fell on the ground, unconscious.
When she recovered, she realised what had happened. The Lord Almighty, in all his glory, was before her very eyes. It was little Krishna, the incarnation of Vishnu. Yashoda took the little boy on her lap and hugged him and cried with joy.

Yoga of wisdom and realization.
Prabhu Sri Krishna Ji said:
I am the sapidity in water, O Arjuna!
I am the light in the moon and the sun
I am the syllable AUM in all the Vedas, sound in ether, and virility in men
I am the sweet fragrance in earth and the brilliance in fire, the life in all beings
I am austerity in ascetics
Know Me, O Arjuna!
As the eternal seed of all beings
I am the intelligence of the intelligent
the splendour of the splendid objects am I!
Of the strong, I am the strength devoid of desire and attachment, and in [all] beings.
I am the desire unopposed to Dharma, O Arjuna!
Whatever being [and objects] that are pure, active and inert, know that they proceed from Me.
They are in Me, yet I am not in them.

महात्माओं की दीवाली
एक दिन महदाइसाने भगवानसे प्रार्थना की, ‘महाराज ! मैं आपकी सेवामें दीवालीका त्यौहार मनाऊँगी ।’ भगवानने आज्ञा दी, ‘हमारे साथ महात्मालोगोंकी भी दीवाली मनायी जाये । त्यौहार मनानेका सामान यदि कम हो, तो नागुबाइसासे माँग लो।’
महदाइसाने ‘जो आज्ञा’ कहकर सबको स्नान करानेके लिये संध्याके समय ही पानी भर लिया । उमाइसाके घरसे उबटन, तेल तथा साबुन ले आयी । उस दिन भगवान् बहुत सवेरे उठकर शौच आदिसे निवृत्त होकर आसनपर आ बैठे । भक्तलोगोंको भी बैठाया गया । महदाइसाने भक्त तथा भगवानकी आरती उतारी और भगवानको वीड़ा दिया । महदाइसाने भगवानके शरीरपर उबटन मला । उस कटोरीमें और तेल डालकर उसने भक्तोंको दिया । उन्होंने उबटनसे परस्पर एक-दूसरेके शरीरका मर्दन किया । उसने भगवानके सिरपर तेलकी मालिश की । भगवानको ऊँचे चबूतरेपर बिठलाया गया । नारियलके दूधसे उनका सिर धोया गया । भक्तजनोंको भी हरे नारियलका दूध सिरमें लगानेको दिया गया । उन्होंने एक-दूसरेके सिरपर मल लिया । फिर भगवानको जलसे नहलाया गया । महदाइसा पानी डाल रही थी और बाइसाजी सिर तथा शरीरको मल रही थी । भक्तलोग चबूतरेके नीचे खड़े होकर उस पानीसे नहा रहे थे । अंतमें जब भगवानकी श्रीमूर्तिपर पानीकी धार डाली गयी, तो भगवानने दोनों हाथ सिरपर रख लिये । पानी कुहनियोंसे होकर बहने लगा । उस पानीसे भक्तजन नहाये । इस प्रकार भगवान् तथा भक्तोंको स्नान करवाया गया ।
शरीरपर बाल अधिक होनेके कारण नागदेवजीको और अलग पानी देकर नहलाया गया । महदाइसाने कुछ वस्तुएँ लेकर भगवानके सिरसे वार दीं । उसके पश्चात भगवानने वस्त्र पहिन लिये । भगवानको आसनपर बिठलाकर उनकी पूजा की गयी । सभीको चंदनका तिलक लगाया गया । पुनश्च सभीके सिरपरसे कुछ वस्तुएँ वार दी गयीं । भगवानको वीड़ा और भक्तजनोंको पान दिये गये । भगवानने सबको पान खानेकी आज्ञा दी । सबने पान खाये । उतनेमें अरुणोदय हो जानेपर बाइसाजीने दैनिक पूजाअवसर किया । बादमें भगवान् विहरणके लिये चले गये और महदाइसा भोजन बनानेमें लग गयी ।
विहरणसे भगवानके लौटनेपर महदाइसाने पूजाअवसर किया । भगवानके लिये थाल और भक्तोंके लिये पत्तलें परोसी गयीं । भगवानके साथ बैठकर सब भक्तजनोंने भोजन किया । इस प्रकार दीपावली मनायी गयी ।

Once Mahadaisa asked Sarwagya Ji,...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
As usual Mahadaisa was sitting in front of Swami Shree Chakardhara Ji. She asked prabhu ji “How Shree Krishan Chander Prabhu ji gifted Udhav Dev with his love”. Prabhu ji was in meditation posture.
Then Sarwagy Ji replied, Mahadaisa when Shree Krishan Ji was going towards the prison cell after killing the Raja Kans. Prabhu Ji found, somebody was hiding behind the pillar with heavy breath. He was apprehensive and fearful that something bad could go with him. He was trying to keep him away from the sight of Prabhuji.
Prabhu saw him hidden and said, who was hiding there: One of the sewak of Raja Kans said, Prabhu ji he is the Minister of Raja Kans. Immediately Udhav Dev said, Prabhu ji I do only the long and careful consideration or discussion with Raja Kans. Then Prabhu ji said, till the day you have worked and taken the seat under the Kans, now you will take the position under my empire and do the same. After this incidence, Udhav experienced the wibes of loves towards the Prabhu ji and have bowed towards the Shree Krishan Chakarwati Prabhu.
एक दिन महदाइसा ने श्री चकर्धर स्वामी जी से पूछा, हे प्रभो! प्रभु श्री कृष्ण चंदर जी ने उद्धव देव को प्रेम दान किस प्रकार दिया ?
सर्वज्ञ श्री चक्रधर स्वामी जी ने उत्तर दिया, महदाइसा! जब भगवन श्री कृष्ण जी राजा कंस का वध करके कारागर की ओर जाने लगे तो वहा देखा की उद्धव देव भयभीत स्तम्भ के पीछे खड़े थे |
श्री कृष्ण जी ने उन्हें छिपा देख कर कहा, अरे! वहा कूँ खड़ा है| उतर देते हुए अन्य सेवक ने कहा| प्रभु जी वहा पर राजा कंस के प्रधान मंत्री है| तत्काल उद्धव ने कहा, प्रभु जी में अपनी बुद्धि से कुछ मंत्रणा कंस के समुख रखा करता था| तब प्रभु जी ने कहा, आपने आजतक कंस का अमात्यतव सवीकारा था, अब आजसे आप हमारा मंत्रितब धारण करो ओर हमे मंत्रणा दिया करो| प्रभु जी के इन्ही वचनों के साथ उद्धव देव को प्रेम संक्रमण हुआ ओर उन्होंने प्रभु जी को सहस्तांग दंडवत प्रणाम कर , खुदको धन्य माना|

Glory of the Mahatirth Asan Chins...
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏
All of us know that about the Mahatirth Asan Chinsthali, yes the same which one is taking a great turn in the present time. One of the most historical and the Pujniye and the Holy place of the Mahanubhava Pantha, we call this as the Tirath Sthan. The Mahatirth Asan Chinsthali, is on the bank of the Godavari river.
Regarding the time of construction of Mahatirth Asan Chinsthali, there is no perfect and the accurate time. Stil we have a statement that Harku Bai Holkar, who was savat of Ahilia Bai Holkar. They said it was constructed in the times of 17th century and in between. No accurate time is available. So collecting the few from history and few from the our Mahanubhav Pantha promoter i.e Mahatma Raghavbhat Satarkar.
Truly said, Muni Ji is the man behind the renovation and the construction of the Stone Temple. From their tireless and the continuous effort, the Tirath Sthan is once in the better position than before.
The structure is proposed by the SOCIETY FOR ASAN CHINSTHALI DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE (SADAN). Now, there is a message from the Panth Promoter Mahatma Raghavbhat Satarkar regarding the Mahatirth Asan Chinsthali.
🙏 जय श्री कृष्ण जी 🙏
