Glories of Hanuman

The sacred text of Shri Ramcharitmanas extols the greatness of everyone’s most favorite super-hero, Shri Hanumanji in various ways and glorifies not only the power of Hanumanji but his unmatched humility and unwavering love for Lord Ram.

In this unique book, you are sure to experience the divine fragrance that resides in and through Hanumanji’s personality via Swami Abhedanandaji’s beautiful commentary on some of the most thought-provoking episodes from Ramcharitmanas.

Swamiji starts with the description of the three forms of Hanumanji as Ishwar roop (Faith), Bhakt roop (Inspiration) and Guru roop (Guidance), and gradually glides into an in-depth illustration of how Sugriva was well protected under Hanumanji’s guidance as a Guru. In his assuring words, Swamiji affirms that Guru is the one who has very close proximity, communication, and oneness with the God and therefore he takes the disciple very close to the God.

Moving ahead, Swamiji reveals the secrets of how Mother Sita (Absolute Peace) has to be searched in our lives, and how we should rise above our ahamkaar (ego), and cross the ocean of dehabhimaan, just as Shri Hanumanji did!

Read these transcripts of Swamiji’s mesmerizing talks and call upon Shri Hanuman in your minds, and invoke him to get connected to the all-powerful Lord!

Navadha Bhakti

In Shrimad Bhagawatam, one of the Lord Vishnu’s greatest devotees, Prahalad, describes nine kinds of Bhakti through which our vrittis for the Lord can be made stronger and the Lord’s love can be made visible.

श्रवणं कीर्तनं विष्णोः स्मरणं पादसेवनम्।

अर्चनं वन्दनं दास्यं सख्यमात्मनिवेदनम्।।

çravaëaà kértanaà viñëoù smaraëaà pädasevanam |

arcanaà vandanaà däsyaà sakhyamätmanivedanam ||

The virtue of surrender alone makes God the sole Doer and Enjoyer of our lives. Such a life of faith and devotion is indeed the most peaceful.

Power of Devi Worship

Mother Nature is powerful, and yet she is so immensely patient. Mother Earth is the most heavy, and yet she is the most compassionate. Mother Ganga can be the most tempestuous and yet she is the most nourishing. They are all forms of the divine Mother Durga. “Devi” – the divine mother Goddess is the ultimate “Shakti” who nourishes every single being and thing in this universe. From the huge Sun to the tiniest atom in this Universe, every single object owes its energy source to this ‘Shakti’ which is the expression of Ma Durga alone. She is the essential force behind everything, but only the wise who realize this subtle truth, who meditate upon this eternal power; are truly capable of seeing the “Devi” behind this “Shakti “.

One of the most potent and elaborate texts which enumerate the glories and the powers of Devi Ma is “Durga Saptahshati”. It contains several assuring stories about how Mother Durga protected her children when attacked by the demons. In this article, we are pleased to share with our readers and devotees some of the salient points from Swamiji’s enlightening talks on “Power of Devi Worship” based on the divine text of Durga Saptashati.
