Bhagavad Gita - A way for Life

Bhagavad Gita - A way for Life

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

The Bhagavad Gita, which is a treasure house of Dharma, not only for Hindus but for all mankind. The Gita teaches us better concentration, overcoming anger, self-control, the art of right action, true happiness, devotion and so on.

Valuable learnings from Bhagavad Gita:
1️⃣ Delusion arises from anger. The mind is bewildered by delusion. Reasoning is destroyed when the mind is bewildered. One falls down when reasoning is destroyed.
2️⃣ One can become whatever one wants to be if one constantly contemplates on the object of desire with faith.
3️⃣ Fear not what is not real, never was and never will be. What is real, always was and cannot be destroyed.
4️⃣ You grieve for those who are not worthy of grief, and yet speak the words of wisdom. The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead.
5️⃣ The evil doers, the ignorant, the lowest persons who are attached to demonic nature, and whose intellect has been taken away by Maya do not worship or seek Me.

Shree Dattatreya: My bliss and contentment are the fruits of self-realization

Shree Dattatreya: My bliss and co...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Soul alone is my Guru.Once King Yadu saw Lord Dattatreya (Avadhoot) wandering in a forest happily, free from worries. The king with humbleness asked the sage, about the secret of his happiness and the name of his Guru. Further said to sage, that despite you look capable and wise, why do you live in the forest. Even though you have no family, nor any loved one, how could you be so blissful and self-contented?

To answer the Yadu’s enquired queries, the Lord Dattatreya (Avadhoot, one who have given up all worldly desires) replied:
My bliss and contentment are the fruits of self-realization. Soul (Aatmaa) alone is my Guru, yet I have gained the necessary wisdom from the whole creation, via 24 individual who were therefore my Gurus. I shall elaborate the same for you.

Further Lord Dattatreya said: I have taken shelter of twenty-four gurus, who are the following: the earth, air, sky, water, fire, moon, sun, pigeon and python; the sea, moth, honeybee, elephant and honey thief; the deer, the fish, the dancing girl Pingala, the kurari bird and the child; the young girl, arrow maker, serpent, spider and wasp.

Further Lord Dattatreya explains what he has learned from his own body. My Body teaches me Gyaan (knowledge) and Vairaagya (detachment). Birth and death are along with it. It means that if we hold on to this body then we have to bear sorrows. Although it helps to think about Tattwa (elements) still I never consider it mine.

Sarvadnya Shri Chakradhar Swami - The Divine Light

Sarvadnya Shri Chakradhar Swami -...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Sarvadnya Shri Chakradhar Swami, born in Gujarat, Karmabhumi in Maharashtra, the divine light of Sri Chakradhar Swami sustained Sanatan Dharma at a difficult time in Indian history by spiritual galvanization & healing of the Indic society at large. Temples in his honour existed even in Afghanistan at one time.

There are three paths which lead directly to establishing a relationship with God. According to the authority of Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita these paths have been designated as
Sarvadnya Shri Chakradhar Swami told his disciples that the lord takes avatars in all four yugas. Same was said by Shree Krishna Prabhu in Shree Mad Bhagavad Gita: “Dharma Sansthaapnaarthay Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge”

Accordingly, there is not a time in this world when an avatar is absent. But he told of only five of the innumerable avatars, namely: Shri Krishna, Shri Dattatreya Prabhu, Shri Chakrapani Prabhu, Shri Govindaprabhu, and Sarvadnya Shri Chakrdhar Swami (himself). Even knowing of one avatar, and walking on the path lightened by him, can lead to the ultimate bliss (moksha). There were only five, because these avatars fell in the Guru Parampara. Govindaprabhu was the guru of Shri Chakradhar Swami. Shri Chakrapani Prabhu was the guru of Shri Govindaprabhu. Shri Dattatreya Prabhu was the guru of Shri Chakrapani Prabhu. Shri Dattatreya Prabhu and Shri Krishna are not said to have another avatar as Guru.”

About Shree Chakradhar Swami
Haripaldeva was born at Bharavas (Bharuch,present day Gujarat) as the son of a king named Vishaldeva & his queen Mhalani devi. Haripaldeva died due to fever at the age of twenty at which point, a widely believed reincarnation of lord krishna named Shri Chakrapani Prabhu from Phaltan entered the dead body of Haripaldeva after which he revived. The thus reborn Haripaldeva was a greatly changed personality who would become known as Shree Chakradhar Swami.

Contribution of the Mahanubhav Panth to Marathi Literature
Sri Chakradhar Swami’s biography “Leela Charitra” written by his disciple Mahimbhatta is one of the first known works in Marathi literature; Also, Mahdaaisa, one of pant’s earlier devotees is considered to be the first Marathi poetess. One of the most important aspects of the philosophy propounded by him is asceticism. His fourfold teachings are: Non Violence, Celibacy, Asceticism and Bhakti.

Literature
Leela Charitra: Leela Charitra is thought to be the first biography written in the Marathi language. Mahimbhat’s second important literacy creation was Shri Govindaprabhucharitra or Rudhipurcharitra, a biography of Swami’s guru, Shri Govind Prabhu, in the form of 325 deeds. This was probably written in 1288, soon after the death of Shri Prabhu.
Satigranth: It was Nagadeva who systematized Mahanubhava. Mahadamba was a leading poetess of the movement. Besides Leelacharitra, Keshobas alias Keshavrajsuri has collected the Swami aphoristic vachans or actually spoken words, known as Sutrapath which is always on the lips of the follower of Mahanubhav.
Keshavrajsuri translated the some of “deeds” from Leelacharitra into Sanskrit in his work called “Ratnamala”. Similarly he has written in Sanskrit Dristantstotarm based on Dristantpath. The first Acharya of Mahanubhava Sect is Nagdevachrya or Bhatobas. His biography was written by Narendra and Bhaidevbas in about 1308.

There are seven works which have been written are known as satigranth and they are accepted by the followers of the sect. These are:
  1. Narendra : Rukaminiswayamvara (1292)
  2. Bhaskarbhat Borikar : Shishupalvadha (1312)
  3. Bhaskarbhat Borikar : Uddhavgita (1313)
  4. Damodar Pandit : Vachhaharana (1316)
  5. Ravalobas : Sahayadrivaranana (1353)
  6. Narayanbas Bahahaliye : Riddhipurvarnana (1418)
  7. Vishvanath Balapurkar : Janaprabodh (1418)

Whatever exists: They are in me, I am not in them: Bhagvad Gita, Chapter VII, Verses 8-12

Whatever exists: They are in me, ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Prabhu Shree Krishna said in Bhagvad Gita:

I am the sapidity in water, O Arjuna.
I am the light in the moon and the sun.
I am the syllable Om / AUM (ॐ) 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; and 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.

Know Me, O Arjuna.
Of the strong, I am the strength devoid of desire and attachment.
And in all beings.
I am the desire unopposed to Dharma.

Know Me, 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.

God With Form or God Without Form: Bhagvad Gita, Chapter XII, Verses 1-5

God With Form or God Without Form...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Like all of us, Arjuna was also confused about the proper way to worship God.

So, Arjuna very specifically asked bhagwan Krishna whether one should worship God as a person (WITH FORM) or worship God as impersonal (WITHOUT FORM).
(BG:12:1).

Prabhu Shree Krishna answered
Those who worship me with great faith, I consider them to be perfect. However, those worship the impersonal, formless, imperishable Brahman with proper control of senses also will finally attain me.
(Bhagavad Gita Chapter 12:2,3,4)

Bhagwan Krishna answered: Remember those whose minds are attached to the impersonal, formless, imperishable Brahman will find very difficult to progress in their path since they are born with body and mind.
(Bhagavad Gita Chapter 12:5)

Since the concept of God is very difficult to explain, Rishi Veda Vyasa wrote, we can worship God.
With form - SAGUNA BRAHMAN - as well as Without form - NIRGUNA BRAHMAN

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.
