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

Shree Dattatreya, the guru to the entire universe – Vishwa Guru - SMARTHRUGAAMI
🙏 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.
  • 4. Brahmanda Purana says–“Lord Dattatreya gave the memory of Vedas to the Vedamurthy Sree Brahma Deva Himself.
  • 5. The Upanishads Avadhutopanishad and Jaabaaldarshanopanishad mention that the philosophy is given by Shri Dattatreya.
  • 6. Upanishads and Puranas are openly telling and Guru avatharas are guiding us to recite Datta Nama Smaran.

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji said By doing the Seva-Dasya-Bhajan-Pujan of these four means Sthan-Prasad-Bhikshuk-Vasnik you can outreach me

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji said B...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

It is very necessary to remember and recall the name of Prabhu ji according to the rituals as explained in the Bhramvidya Shashtra. Take the silent place and do the smaran there. While remembering the Prabhu ji, you must be directly associated to the god. Try to remember the way in which you can actually feel the things happening during that time. Flashback the things as they are going now.

It is proven that Smaran is the only way to get closer to the ultimate spirit called Lord. While doing the smaran, remember that your posture must be straight and your eyes must be half closed and pointing towards straight. Buzz in the little louder sound, such that your body can feel the positive vibes of that word. The best time to do the smaran is in-between 03:00AM to 06:00AM.

Shree Chakardhara Swami ji usually says “Wake early in the morning” - “पश्चात प्रहरी उठीजे”
A leela associated to the Shree Chakardhara Swami Ji:
While proceeding to the north direction, all the pantha members were very sad and they asked Prabhu ji in very sad, depressed and weeping tone “Swami, where we will go in your remembrance. How do we do it?”

Then Swami ji replied: Naam, Leela and Murti Cheshta, remembring the lord in these way and doing the Seva-Dasya-Bhajan-Pujan of these four means Sthan-Prasad-Bhikshuk-Vasnik you can outreach me. After giving direction Prabhuji appointed Nagdev Aacharya for the Seva of Panhta (Mahanubhav Pantha) and leaved for the north.

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Hari...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev. In other words, dead Haripaldev had come alive once again or in different way, an (Parmeshwar) Avatar had come on this Earth.

This Leela is about the Miracle of rebirth of Prince Haripaldev. Leela happened as descibed below. At the same time, miracle moment has just taken place. Everyone saw the dead Prince Haripaldev opening his eyes and getting up. Due to this rebirth of Prince the people became happy and started praying to God. This amazing rebirth was expelled all over the state of Gurjara Kingdom.

The Prince was brought back to his palace with great joy. All people were dancing, singing by the rebirth of Prince. The Royal Family was fully excited to see the Prince coming back home. Haripaldev’s father Vishaldev, a philosophical learner started wondering about this incident. He could not resolve the mystery of his son coming back to life. At that time yogis were having the technique (vidya) which they can give up their body and enter the body of someone else. So, Vishaldev sent his man (spy) to find whether the dead body of yogis are seen nearby. After searching all the Gurjara Kingdom no dead body of any yogis were found.

Due to this, Vishaldev was happy and he thought that no dead body or technique have been used to rebirth the Prince body. Finally, Vishaldev enquired from his daughter-in-law Kamla Devi whether she have noticed any change in Haripaldev’s behavior subsequent to his ‘Death and Revival’. After giving this question some thought, Kamla Devi too replied in the negative. She said she did not notice any change in her husband’s behavior. Everything was just fine as it was before.

Vishaldev was at the sea side to understand the rebirth of Prince. After few days, Vishaldev’s man (spy) came to know about the incident which has been occurred at faraway place known as “Pataal Gufa” in Dwarka. There was renowned Yogi-Parmeshwar “Shri Chakrapani Maharaj (also known as Shri Changdev Raul of Dwarka) had given his body because of obduracy shown by Yogini Kamakhya of Kamrup. The Yogini was bent upon unsettling the Raul, but on command from the divine Adiguru, Shri Dattatray Prabhu, the Raul had vowed for lifelong tapasya.

Already, the Yogini was known to have ruined the celibacy of quite a large number of sages. But given the divine yogic power, Raul possessed, making him bow before her desire turned out to be an impossible task for the Yogini. In fact, for entering into Raul’s “Pataal Gufa” itself, she kept on waiting for seven days and night with her one foot inside and one foot outside the entrance of the Gufa. However, Raul did not yield to her illicit demand. Due to this illicit demand, Shri Chakrapani Maharaj, finally decided to give up his physical body and move out to someone else’s. By this, Raul entered into the dead body of Prince Haripaldev in Bharauch. In other words, dead Haripaldev had come alive once again or in different way, an (Parmeshwar) Avtaar had come on this Earth.

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.

5000 years ago in the battlefield of Kurukshetra

5000 years ago in the battlefield...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

The Divine song I love the most of Supreme Lord Krishna which everyone must remember. Bhagvad means God & Gita means Song. So it is song of divine himself. 5000 years ago in the battlefield of Kurukshetra Prabhu Shree Krishna himself sang the greatest philophical song for all humankind. And its not the first time he sang it billions of years ago he sang it to sun god vivasana.

ईश्वरीय गीत मुझे सबसे ज्यादा प्रिय है सर्वोच्च भगवान कृष्ण जो कि हर किसी को याद होने चाहिए। भगवद् का अर्थ है भगवान और गीता का अर्थ है गीत। इसलिए यह स्वयं परमात्मा का गीत है। 5000 साल पहले कुरुक्षेत्र के युद्ध के मैदान में स्वयं प्रभु श्री कृष्ण ने सभी मानव जाति के लिए सबसे बड़ा फिलोफिकल गीत गाया था। और यह पहली बार नहीं है जब उन्होंने इसे अरबों साल पहले गाया था, उन्होंने इसे सूर्य देवता के लिए गाया था।

The reason Krishna comes to the material world is specifically to re-establish the real purpose of life when mankind in general has forgotten this purpose. Krishna is very merciful to us, it is out of His mercy that He spoke the Bhagavad-gita, making His friend Arjuna the first student.

कृष्ण भौतिक दुनिया में आने का कारण विशेष रूप से जीवन के वास्तविक उद्देश्य को फिर से स्थापित करना है जब सामान्य रूप से मानव जाति इस उद्देश्य को भूल गई है। कृष्ण हमारे लिए बहुत दयालु हैं, यह उनकी दया से बाहर है कि उन्होंने भगवद् गीता बोली, अपने दोस्त अर्जुन को पहला छात्र बनाया।

Theory of Swami Shree Chakardhara for Karmas and Liberation

Theory of Swami Shree Chakardhara...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Swami Shree Chakardhara depicted a theory about Karma, whatever we perform daily is a Karma. Jeevs are naturally a doer, Jeevs can’t even rest a while without doing a deed. Jeevs are very helpless by his nature and too much strong if he remembers who is his Parmeshwara.

Swami Ji’s theory is well explained and clear about the Karma. According to Swami Ji, Karmas are not always physically performed. Sometimes karmas are our thoughts and words also. Jeevs are doing karmas every second, even in any form like talking, walking, sleeping, eating, thinking and all the basic activites.

Origin of Karmas It has already been explained that in the first three creations, the jeevs prepared for the performance of deeds and in the fourth creation the deeds performed became rewardable. Now, in this the role of Devtas began. Devtas are ordered to give rewards to the jeevs. Since jeev can't reward himself so Devtas as an examiner takes charge to reward the Jeevs, but on the top, the Parmeshwara is holding the charge of Principal. Only by his grant, the Devtas give rewards to Jeevs, positive or negative both by deeds.

Three stages of Karmas Swami Ji explained the cause of Karmas and now he is explaining the three stage of Karmas. A single karma is performed by a process. These stage of Karmas are:
1️⃣ Thinking: This is the very first process, whatever jeevs want to perform, he thinks for that.
2️⃣ Speaking: After thinking and assuming, Jeevs secondly speak for that.
3️⃣ Acting: Very last, after speaking jeevs act for that physically.

Since all the karmas are performed by jeevs, but there is a hidden force working inside. The hidden force have coated a layer of dust on the jeevs. Actually, the karmas are the bondages and the real hurdle in the path of liberation. Jeevs can’t attain bliss without leaving the greed of karma.
