Yoga of wisdom and realization: Bhagvad Gita, Chapter VII, Verses 8-12

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

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.
Source: Bhagavad Gita, Chapter VII, Verses 8-12.

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Jai Shri Chakradhar Swami; Shri Prabhu Darshan:

As guards got up from their sleep they started searching Prince Haripaldev, but they couldn't find him. By getting the news of Haripaldev has been lost, Vishaldev, father of Haripaldev started searching him all over but they fail to find him. Haripaldev took every step in an undisclosed direction.

It was twenty fifth day since Haripaldev had left Bharauch. Haripaldev came to the principal town of Rudhapur (Ridhpur) which was dwelling place of another Ishwari Avtaar, Shri Govind Prabhu Maharaj.

As it was before mentioned, that Shri Prabhu was fourth Ishwari Avtaar in Mahanubhav Panth (Jai Krishni Pantha or Achyuta Pantha).

Shri Prabhu had taken incarnation by replacing a yet to be born child from the womb of mother Nemaisa; and that child had some physical and mental infirmities and abnormalities. Shri Prabhu adopted all this features. Due to this, it was complex to understand Shri Prabhu, but who comprehend his true form, became his lifelong Bhaktas. Shri Prabhu performed many Miracle by giving life to the dead, good fortune to deprived ones and shelter to the destitute. Shri Prabhu also send lowly creatures such as insects to the highest level of attainment.

Once Shri Prabhu left Rudhapur, that year no rain takes place in Rudhapur. While moving around in the streets of Rudhapur, Haripaldev came to market place known as Randhwan Haat (the market of Sweet). At that place, Haripaldev got attracted by the divine presence of Shri Prabhu. Haripaldev saw Shri Prabhu smiling, grey beard and hair, half-clad and face having wheaten complexion with fair radiance. His eyes were half open and eyeball gazing towards the sky. Left small finger having slight blend. Haripaldev paid respects to Shri Prabhu by bowing before him with folded hand known as Namaskar (Dandvat Pranam). He chanted glory for him. Then he stood aside and watched Shri Prabhu acts of benevolence. A large gathering of devotees had surrounded Shri Prabhu who was enjoying some local food preparation known as Segule Budde.

Suddenly Haripaldev heard Shri Prabhu saying, “Take it, don’t take, yes take it, oh, take it” and Shri Prabhu throw Segule Budde towards Haripaldev. By this, Haripaldev grabbed Segule Budde by both his hands and he bowed again towards Shri Prabhu. Both the Avtaar (Prince Haripaldev in form of Dwaravati Shri Changdev Raul / Shri Chakrapani Maharaj and other side Shri Govind Prabhu / Shri Prabhu / Shri Gundam Raul himself) looked intensely at each other. Meeting of eyes produced a Miracle. Shri Prabhu came towards Haripaldev and kept his hand on Haripaldev forehead and said, “You are my Chakradhar”, you are Chakrahya, my Chakra.

Surrender everything to me, I am ...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Lord Shree Krishna said that during the last chapter since, he exhausted all other advice to Arjuna regarding:
1. Jnana Yoga: The path of external renunciation, where outside activity is given up in pursuit of inner enquiry.
2. Karma Yoga: It purifies the mind. It leads one to consider dharma of work, and the work according to one's dharma, doing god's work.
3. Raja Yoga: It does emphasize the importance of self-control, meditation, and inner discipline, which are core principles of Raja Yoga, and discusses various yogic paths including Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Jnana Yoga.

Sarva-Dharman parityajya mam ekam sharanam vraja aham tvam sarva-papebhyo mokshayishyami ma shuchah.

Lord Krishna said: Abandon all Dharma (duties) and just surrender unto me (the will of God). I shall deliver you from all bonds of Karma. Do not fear.

Brahmvidya Shastra and Nav Prakar...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Brahmvidya Shastra, It is a collection of main vachans (sutras) of Swami Shree Chakardhara and presents the philosophical core of Mahanubhav Pantha. Very well planned and carefully organized into various sections, it is revered as our Shastra mop Parmeshwar (God in the form of scripture).

Compiled with great care and understanding (in 1290) by the knowledgeable Keshav Vyas Suri from amongst 1500 episodes in the sacred source book Leela Charitra, is the second sacred book Brahmvidya Shastra.

The Brahmvidya Shastra gives minute details of four elements (Char Paddarths- Ishwar, Devta, Jeev & Prapanch), Gods and the varied knowledge, way and source of attaining them. Nav Prakaran means nine chapters. Excluding the background chapter of Poorvi (along with Panch Krishna and Panch Naam).

Nav Prakaran:
🚩 Anya Vyavriti – अन्य व्यावृति (देवता पदार्थ)
🚩 Yug Dharma – युगधर्म
🚩 Vidya Marg – विद्या मार्ग
🚩 Sanhaar – संहार (प्रलय)
🚩 Sansaran – संसरण (रचना)
🚩 Udharan – उद्धरण
🚩 Mahavakya – महावाक्य
🚩 Nirvachan – निर्वचन
🚩 Astipari – असतिपरि

Other parts of Brahmvidya are Vichar Prakaran and Achar Prakaran. There are 285 sutras under Vichar Prakaran and 289 sutras under Achar Prakaran. Keshav Vyas Suri also selected from Leela Charitra 114 drishtants (illustrations) which were narrated by Swami to elaborate some deep philosophical thought. If this is included, Nav Prakaran becomes Dasham Prakaran.

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.
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.

Shri 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.

Vāsudeva Shree Krishna - The Supr...

🙏 Dandvat Pranam 🙏

Krishna, the meaning of the word in Sanskrit is all-attractive.
He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, also called as God of gods. In other words, Krishna is the Godhead because He is all-attractive.
From practical experience we can observe that one is attractive due to:

(1) Wealth: Ownership and control over all.
He is Laksmi-pati (the husband of the Goddess of Fortune). All material and spiritual energies belong to Him.

(2) Power: The strength to create, maintain, and dissolve.
Demonstrated through feats like lifting Govardhan Hill or maintaining the orbits of countless planets through His energies.

(3) Fame: Being known and celebrated across time and space.
His pastimes (Lilas) are sung in every corner of the world, and His influence spans across millennia without fading.

(4) Beauty: Physical and spiritual charm that draws the heart.
Described as Kandarpa-koti-kamaniya—His beauty exceeds that of millions of Cupids, attracting even the most stoic minds.

(5) Wisdom: Complete knowledge of the past, present, and future.
Best exemplified by the Bhagavad Gita, a concise yet infinite philosophical treatise that remains the ultimate guide for humanity.

(6) Renunciation: The ability to be detached despite possessing everything.
Though He is the creator of the universe, He remains unaffected and detached, often playing the role of a simple cowherd boy.

One who is in possession of all six of these opulences at the same time and who possesses them to an unlimited degree is understood to be the Supreme Personality of Godhead according to Parasara Muni a great Vedic authority.

Krishna is the principal protagonist with Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita also known as the Song of God, which depicts the conversation between the Royal Prince Arjuna and Krishna during the great battle of Kurukshetra 5000 years ago where Arjuna discovers that Krishna is God and then comprehends his nature and will for him and for mankind. In the present age Krishna is one of the most widely revered and most popular of all Indian divinities.
