Lord Shree Krishna choosen Arjuna only why not anyone else?

Lord Shree Krishna choosen Arjuna only why not anyone else?
🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Krishna give knowledge of the Srimad Bhagavad-Gita to Arjuna because there were many reasons.

Context of the Kurukshetra War: The Gita is set on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where Arjuna, a warrior prince, is filled with doubt and moral confusion about fighting in the war against his own relatives and teachers. Krishna's guidance is aimed at helping him navigate this crisis.

Preparedness to Learn: Arjuna's willingness to seek guidance and his openness to Krishna's teachings demonstrate his readiness to receive such profound knowledge. He acknowledges his confusion and seeks help, which is a prerequisite for spiritual learning.

Arjuna's Role: As a key figure in the Mahabharata, Arjuna embodies the struggles of duty (dharma) and righteousness. His internal conflict serves as a universal metaphor for the dilemmas faced by individuals in life.

Piercing fish eye

Piercing fish eye

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

A night before the day of Matsya Vedh (Piercing fish eye) competition, Krishna and Arjuna conversation.

Krishna: Arjuna, take care, put your step forward and concentrate on the eye of fish.
Arjuna: If i have to do everything , then what will you do?
Krishna: What you can't do, I will do.
Arjuna: And what is it that I can't do?
Krishna answers: I will keep the water steady.

No matter how much work we do for our goals, we are not the creator here. We are the co-creator of our life. We must perform our karma and trust that everything beyond our control will be taken care by God or The Universe or the Higher Power or any other name you believe in.

Remember God is your silent invisible partner.

Story behind the Shree Sarvatirth Temple - Ridhapur

Story behind the Shree Sarvatirth...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Since we all know about the Shree Rajmath Ridhapur popularly known as The Kashi of Mahanubhav cult. Shree Rajmath Tirath (Ridhapur) is situated in the Morshi Taluka in Amravati District on the Chandur Bazar- Morshi Road. Shree Sarvatirth Temple located at the backside of Rajmath Tirath. Although it’s not a Charankit Sthan of Prabhu Ji but it’s is Mandalik Sthan. There is a story behind this.

During the 13th century, there was a Sant Rajbas. He is very conscious about his routine & he always uses to take food after the pilgrimage of all the Sthans of Shree Ridhapur. Growing with the time & at the older age and illness, he takes 3-4 days to complete pilgrimage of all the Sthans.

One day conditions were too worst, Sant Rajbas had a dream of Prabhu Ji. Shree Gundam Raul Prabhu Ji delivered him a message that “Collect all the Vishesh from all the Sthans & then bring them under one shelter, there you can do your rituals easily”. From that time the area is called as the Shree Sarvatirth Temple.

Shree Sarvatirth Temple:
▫️ Sarvatirth Sthan, Chandur Bazar - Morshi Road,
▫️ Taluka: Morshi, District: Amravati,
▫️ State: Maharashtra, India

Shree Dattatreya, the guru to the entire universe – Vishwa Guru - SMARTHRUGAAMI

Shree Dattatreya, the guru to the...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Behind all names and forms is the one nameless, formless Essence. Behind all governors is the one Supreme Governor of governors. Behind all lights is the one Light Of lights. Behind all sounds, there is the soundless Supreme Silence. Behind all teachers is the one Supreme Guru of Gurus and that is only Jagad Guru SHREE DATTATREYA.

The two letters of DA and TTA means “DATTA” nama smarana, Datta nama sankeerthan, Datta nama dhyaana only will give Paramardha to every life. He is “BHUKTHI, MUHTHI PRADAATHA” which means, he will always sanction Sukha in this Loka and also in Paraloka. . Hence the Datta sadhaks can lead the superb Materialistic and Spiritualistic life. Miraculous growth and life settlement of Children/Generations of Datta Sadhaks can be seen . This is Permanant (SHAASWATHA) , True (SATHYA) and Happy (AANANDA).

Prabhu Dattatreya tatwa is AVYAKTHA, NIRGUNA, NIRAAKAARA, NIRANJANA, NISHKRIYA, PARABRAHMA, SAGUNA SWAROOPA and it is SHREEMANNARAAYANA, PARAMESHA TATWA. The Upanishads are clearly telling that, “DATTA VEEJASTHAM JAGATH SARVAM”. This means that total Universe is Prabhu Datta swaroopa. Nothing is beyond him.
Lord Dattatreya, is the important Diety in the Indian Spiritual Panorama and very important in MAHANUBHAV. His personality integrates the elements of the three Gods, Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara. Shree Dattatreya is also the guru to the entire universe – Vishwa Guru.

He taught:
  • 1. Srividya to Parashurama
  • 2. Dattavidya to Brahma
  • 3. Adhyatma Vidya to Prahlada
  • 4. Yoga Vidya to Vasishta and
  • 5. Atma Vidya to Kartaviryarjuna

He also incarnated as Sri Sripada Vallabha and Sri Nrsimha Saraswati in the age of Kali to uphold Dharma. The trinity represent his three faces, his body is pure chit, the six branches of knowledge are his six hands, the four dogs are the four Vedas, the cow is Dharma, universal peace is the Oudumbara tree and the great incarnation of Brahman, complete with sixteen kalas, which is a personification of the knowledge of the Self – is the unfathomable Murti of Sri Dattatreya. Sri Dattareya is an ocean of compassion. By merely remembering his name, one earns his grace. Hence he is called “SMARTHRUGAAMI” – one who immediately appears to the devotee who remembers the Lord. A sage called Dalaadana once wanted to test the truth in this statement and remembered Dattatreya.

It is my very nature to reach that person who remembers me, instantly. Whether with devotion or not, if a man remembers me sincerely, I will instantly reach him and grant his desires – This is Shree Dattareya’s sacred promise to us, his children.
Also, the other unique quality of Sri Dattareya is that he is – BHAKTA KEERTHI VIVARDHANA – he is more interested in showcasing the glory of his devote than of his own. This is yet another example of his immeasurable grace towards his devotees.

The Upanishads Avadhutopanishad and Jaabaaldarshanopanishad mention that the philosophy is given by Shri Dattatreya. Upanishads and Puranas are openly telling and Guru avatharas are guiding us to recite Datta Nama Smaran. Dattaguru is always ready on his toes to reach those who remember him and shower his unbounded blessings on them. Come forward and recognize him and join his mission by serve him in the propagation of Datta Nama to make your materialistic life easy and create your path to reach the stage of SALVATION by glorifying the Glory of Lord Dattatreya.

What does purans says
  • 1. The Bhagavata-purana and the Markandeya-purana, are the most authoritative sources on the Dattatreya-avatara and they identify Him exclusively with Lord Vishnu.
  • 2. Atreh patny anasuuyaa triin~ jajn~e suyashasah sutaan dattam duurvaasasam somam aatmesha-brahma- sambhavaan (Srimad Bhagavatam 4.1.15).
  • 3. The Vishnu-dharmottara Purana describes in great detail the iconographic details of the avatara-s of Lord Vishnu and here is the reference for Sri Dattatreya.

Benefits of Chanting the Name of Shree Dattatreya Prabhu

Benefits of Chanting the Name of ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

In the recent times, since spiritual practice and the rituals of shraddha/bhagti bhawna (Rites for the deceased) are not performed as before, most people face problems due to the subtle-bodies of ancestors. Only evolved individuals can advise if there is a possibility of a problem in the future or if an existing problem is due to the subtle-bodies of deceased ancestors.

To prevent problems or to overcome a mild problem, chant ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ daily for one to two hours. At other times, to prevent problems arising out of destiny and for spiritual progress, an average individual or seeker in the primary stage should chant the Name of his Kuladevata (Family Shri) as much as is possible.

If you are not fortunate enough to be guided by an evolved individual, then inferring that inability to find a suitable marriage partner, marital disharmony, inability to conceive, miscarriages, giving birth to a premature child, giving birth to a retarded or handicapped child, deaths in childhood etc. are problems which could be due to subtle-bodies of deceased ancestors, undertake spiritual practice as advised ahead.

If the problem is moderate in nature, chant ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ along with the Name of your Kuladevata for two to four hours daily. Also, go to a Datta temple every Thursday and perform seven circumambulations, and chant one to two malas of ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ in the temple. Do this for about a year. After this, chant three malasof ‘Shri Gurudev Datta’ everyday.
By chanting the Name of Shri Datta in Pitrupaksha(The dark fortnight of the Hindu lunar month of Bhadrapad, when rites are performed for the deceased ancestors), the onward sojourn of the ancestors is faster. Hence, during this period, chant for atleast six hours (or seventy-two malas) daily.

Tirath Sthal
Mahurgad, Maharashtra (MAHURGUD) is the famous place in the Mahanubhava Panth. It is the birth place of Lord Shree Dattatreya. This place is visited by thousands of Pilgrims throughout the year. Mahurgad is the one of the most important place in Daily rituals of Prabhu Shree Dattatreya #DandvatPranam

Recalling the name is the way to salvation and the goals of meditation

Recalling the name is the way to ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

During the times, when Sarvadnya Shree Chakradhar Swami Ji was residing in Khudkuli. At the dawn Swami Ji was in meditation portrait, at that moment Nagdev Ji asked the lord “Please give me the way to attain parmeshwar; Give me the process to chant parmeshwar; Give me the way to remember parmeshwar since I don’t have anything to remember the parmeshwar”.

After the hankering urge of Nagdev. Swami Ji said. Contemplation is generated only from the depth of soul. You must remember him every day. Every day you must chant the name. On this, Nagdev Ji asked. How the process should be. How I can learn this. To make the doubt clear, Swami Ji said, Recall the first four names during day and night time, but the fifth name must be recalled all the times.

10 reasons why we meditate
🚩 वेध – Perforation
🚩 बोध – Comprehension
🚩 अनुसरण – Pursuance
🚩 स्मरण – Remembrance
🚩 सभी निग्रहों का परिहार – Avoidance of all constraints
🚩 चरों ओर से आने वाले महद भूतों के कष्टों का निवारण – Redress the suffering of ghosts from all direstions
🚩 बिजली गिरने के समान दुखों का दूर करना – Removal of the restriction like lightning
🚩 सभी प्रकार से सहायता करना – To assist with all types
🚩 और परमेश्वर प्राप्ति करना – And to receive the parmeshwar
🚩 सभी प्रकार के आधिदैविक अधिभौतिक एवं आध्यत्मिक विघ्न कष्टों से बचाना – Lord save from the metaphysical, spiritual sufferings of all sorts of obstacles

With these ways and the goals, you can attain the divine spirit. never forgot the names. While standing, sitting, sleeping, eating, drinking, walking you must recall the names. On this, Mahadaisa asked the Lord. Prabhu ji, we will meditate about you. But, for whom you do meditation. Sarvadnya replied, i do meditation for the welness of all the souls and beside this i do remind about the moment when my Guru Shree Gundam Raul ji slaped me with his love.

चक्रधर स्वामीजी ने कहा इसी प्रकार पञ्च कृष्ण अवतारों के स्मरण के बाद अपने अपने गुरु निमित की भी याद करनी चाहिए। वेध गुरु, उपदेश गुरु, बोध गुरु, शाश्त्र उद्देश्य गुरु, दीक्षा देत गुरु एव अनेक प्रकार के गुरु निमितों को याद करना चाहिए।

नाम स्मरण ही उद्धार है। - Name recall is salvation.
नाम स्मरण से ही कल्याण है। - Remember the name for well-being.
नाम स्मरण ही मोक्ष का आधार है। - Recalling the name is the way to salvation.
