An amorous person seeks women, one with attachment dies for family and a greedy one hankers after wealth but a devotee’s goal is God alone. When the Sadhaka,chained by shackles of Jiva-consciousness begins to fathom to some extent the worthlessness of the world, he starts feeling an urge in his heart for pur Self-bliss. Then start his efforts to attain this Self-bliss; he studies the scriptures and takes recourse to various spiritual practices. But when he realizes that he is not being bereaved of the inner emptiness by means, he forgets his egotism and seeks help from the all-pervading Supreme Being. And ow does the Supreme Being help him? The Almighty incarnates Himself in the form of God-realized Sadgurus and plays His divine frolics form time to time.
In this very chain of God-realized Sadgurus, Param Pujya Bapuji is taking the devotees effortlessly on the path to salvation by Darshan, Satsan, meditation, Kundalini Yoga and the Yoga of listening to the inner sound of Aum experienced in meditation. It is said in ‘Guru Granth Sahib’:
“Guru Nanak says that by coming in the tutelage of Sadguru, one gets such a knack as to attain salvation effortlessly and without any sacrifice as if in a play.’
Pujyashree says, “O sadhaka! God is not afar nor is the attainment of Him, difficult. Take a firm resolve today itself, ‘I will surely attain Self-realization’. You just have to take one single step forward; the Lord is willing to take 999 steps. You pray to the Lord timorously and lose yourself into Him; surrender yourself to Him who is your real master.”
The inquisitive aspirant does study the scriptures but he is unable to understand the esoteric message contained therein and as such fails to learn the art of leading a blissful life. It is possible only when you come across the Sadguru who has experienced and assimilated the scriptural maxim of ‘वासुदेव: सर्वम्’ ‘all is God.’
Those fortunate few who have taken Mantra-Diksha from Pujyashree, a dispenser of the ambrosia of Self-bliss, and frequently attend Dhyan Yoga Shibirs (Meditation camps), have, through His causeless unbidden compassion, got the divine experience of evolution their spiritual energy which makes worries and tension, disappointment and dejection flee from their hearts and unravels the sticky knots of their lives. Slowly and slowly their lust is converted into devotion, they get naturally attuned to meditation and their mind starts reposing in the Divinity within. People starts experiencing, in just 12 days, the real happiness and divine peace and tranquillity that others cannot find by self-mortifying sadhana of 12 years. Simply by sitting near the feet of compassion-incarnate Bapuji and listening to HisSatsang, people get spiritually elevated and the hidden meaning of the scriptures is revealed to them.
Pujyashree’s message to the aspirants is, “wake up to your own Divinity. How long will you keep believing yourself to be merely a certain physical structure, mind and intellect? You are the Supreme Consciousness, wherein innumerable souls, infinite bodies are being echoed. You are the fragrance in the flowers, the nectar in the trees, the chirping of the birds. It is you who shine as the Sun and the Moon. Know your real nature of ‘I am playing in and as all that is’ and repose in your True Self, which is the real Samadhi and that too with open eyes. You have no time to waste because cruel Father of Death is hovering over your head.
We make arrangements of food, clothing, housing and vehicles for our children but the mistake we commit is to ignore the need for ensuring their ideological, moral, intellectual and spiritual development. What is taught in schools and colleges may be useful for earning a living but if the students are not taught, at this juncture that which is so important for shaping one’s life, the techniques to awaken their dormant powers and to cultivate the virtues of industriousness, courage, patience et., if traits of adoring parents and elders are not inculcated in them, these students will grow up to be educated failures and will develop in such manner as to send their parents to old-age homes, to be prone to commit suicide for little or no cause, to be the selfish one’s, eager to divorce their spouses, desolate, addicts, perverse and unquiet citizens.
We should, for the sake of all round development of our beloved children, send them to Vidyarthi Tejaswi Taalim Shibirs (Students’ educational Camps)where Param Pujya Bapuji who is the master of Knowledge of Ultimate Truth, which is Supreme among all branches of knowledge, himself instructs student by way of satsang and his pious company. There, the traits of serving parents are inculcated in the students and they get the supreme path of upliftment in their lives.
Pujyashree is travelling through the length and breadth of the country and blowing the conch of awakening the youth of India through Vidyarthi Tejaswi Taalim Shibirs,through 19000 Baal Samskar Kendras being run under his auspicesm through Yuvadhan Suraksha Abhiyans (protection of youth, the wealth of the nation) and through the newly formed Yuva Seva Sangh (Youth Service Union). He is a great proponent of teaching self-restraint to the youth. More than 17.2 million copies of ‘Divya Prerana Prakash’, a booklet containing his teachings on self-restraint, have been distributed. Shri Hansdasji Maharaj, the secretary of All India Sadhu Samaj and the general secretary of Sant Samiti, has praised this booklet wholeheartedly.
Fast bowler, Ishant Sharma, who plays an important role in Team India’s victory in cricket matches,says, “Since the time I received guidance and blessing from Pujya Bapuji, doors of success have opened in my life. All young men and women should read Pujya Bapuji’s ‘Divya Prerana Prakash’.
Pujyashree’s way of explaining is such succinct, affectionate, marvellous and benevolent that even the dullest student is able to grasp the techniques of success in life. A characteristic feature of Pujya Bapuji is that on one hand he is an experiential teacher of Vedanta and on the other he is capable scholar or child psychology as well. He becomes a child himself while with the children and gives them the esoteric Knowledge of the Gita and Vedanta in a very simple and convenient language.
The results of Saraswatya Mantra-Diksha given by Pujyashree and the Yogic exercises and the various techniques for success in life taught by him are clearly visible in the society.
Singer Bhavya Pundit, a rising star in the world of music, who secured the first place in many music competitions, gives all the credit for her success toSaraswatya Mantra-Diksha received from Pujya Bapuji and to Guru’s grace.
Dr. Rahul Katyal, a young scientist and physiotherapist, who was honoured with a national prize by National Research Development Corporation, remembers his weak student life and says, “Saraswatya Mantra-Diksha received from Pujya Bapuji is an elixir of life for development of talent.”
Ajay Mishra, who did away with his weak memory with the help of Mantra-Diksha and was appointed ‘the Global Product Manager’ in the telecom firm,Nokia, too holds the same view. He is earning a salary of 30 lakh rupees per annum.
Kshitij Soni, a poor boy who used to graze cattle and had difficulty finding even a sum of Rs.2.50 to buy tyer-soled chappals, has, as a result of Anushthana (repetition of a mantra for a set number of times during a given period) of Saraswatya Mantra received from Pujya Bapuji and reading Sri Asraramayana, become an Aircraft Engineer in ‘Go-Air’ and is earning 21.60 lakh rupees per annum.
A youth, Virendra Mehta has with the help of Saraswatya Mantra-Diksha received from Pujya Bapuji and Yogic techniques taught by Pujyashree to improve memory, earned a place in 25 most amazing persons of the world. He memorised 80000 words of ‘Oxford Advanced Learners’ Dictionary’ along with their respective page numbers and thereby achieved a world record.
Apart from these, there are lakhs of students, who received guidance from Pujya Bapuji and developed their powers of memory, decision-making and many other dormant powers in an extraordinary manner and they have begun to meet with success in all spheres. Through his forceful teachings and transmission of spiritual energy, Pujya Bapuji fill even the most desperate of students with immense Self-confidence. After getting initiated by Bapuji and moving tirelessly on the path of devotion and Yoga as shown by ‘Him”, a young boy Suresh is being reverted as ‘Sureshanandji’, today. His devoted-in-service, blissful and elevated life presents an inspiration for the society. We know how degraded his life was! But, it hardly matters now, when his life has reached heights of success, after getting Bapuji’s satsang, performing selfless service… Thus, no one should get disheartened. Everybody is well-acquainted with Sureshanandji’s childhood days.Because of bad company his life had deteriorated to such an extent that he was thrown out of his own house and used to live on foo-path. Such Suresh is in front of us as the Bapuji’s loved ine, Sureshanand, revered by various millionaires and billionaires and lakhs of people around the globe. That is why all students having received Mantra-Diksha from Pujya Bapuji proclaim in unison: ‘Bapuji’s children can never be weak.’
Pens, pencils, notebooks, school bags, uniforms and inspiring literature are distributed free among poor children, in schools under Pujya Bapuji’s instructions. In the tribal areas, in addition to distributing mats, furniture and clothes etc. Bhandaras (feasts) too are organised for children.
Two more projects are in full swing. ‘Vidyarthi Ujjwal Bhavishya Nirman Shibirs’ are being held during vacations so as to rid students of weakness and inferiority feelings. Secondly, students are trainded in Yoga and noble traits are inculcated in them through ‘Yoga Va Uchcha Samskar Shiksha Abhiyan’. National-level competitions are being conducted for the development of students’ spiritual knowledge. In just 3 such competitions, more than 22 lakh sutdents have been benefited. Another initative taken by Pujya Bapuji is organising of ‘Matri Pitri Pujan Divas’ to save the youth of India from the decadent western custom of Valentine Day and inculcating love and respect for parents in the youth. ‘Matru Pitru Punan Divas’ is celebrated on 14th February every year in homes and also in a number of schools.
There are also available to students, VCDs, MP3s of Pujyashree’s satsang and literature, which contain tius to improve memory and to to get good marks in examinations and also inspiring anecdotes to give correct direction to students’ life. Lakhs of students have profited from them and have elevated their lives; are doing so and will continue to do so.
Param Pujya Bapuji wants to give to the country and also to the world, ideal citizens, by making them abundantly endowed with a strong body, sharp & intelligent mind, full of Self-confidence and multifariously talented. Pujyashree says, “Those lacking in self-restraint and probity in life can not make progress in life nor can they do anything great for the society. Fascination for materialism, and egotism drowns therm. They suffer the fate Ravana and Kamsa did. The society and the country comprised of such people lag behind in real happiness and peace and in spiritual progress.”
