In the ALL TIME stats as on today, the top Post was about Rama and the Post on Hanuman runs third. Hence I have brought these two old posts also in the front so that reading consecutively may be of interest to people. This is the result of a suggestion received from one devotee-reader Havasen Reddy, SA.

Dear Devotees
The Ramayan is a masterpiece of Divine Love to Sri Ram. Throughout the verses of the Ramayan, the learned find knowledge, the singers get celestial music, the writers revel in rich poetry and the righteous, a storehouse of Dharma. In this respect the Ramayan is a storehouse of all sarva-mangala without parallel.
Here, my mind is humbly reverting to Sri Hanumanji. A perfected soul of sterling character, his matchless valour and invincible strength, self dedication and his devotion to Lord Ram is second to none! A true Karma yogin, he discharges his duties with utmost sincerity “Ram kaaj karibe ko aatura”. An ardent Bhakti yogin, he derives immense bliss in listening to his Lord’s story, “Prabhu charitra sunibe ko rasiyaa” Yes! all these wonderful traits are very important, especially if we are seeking to lead healthy, peaceful and spiritual lives. In this entire journey of life – our merciful Master is with us, eager to help when we stumble, forgive us when we make mistake, and encourage us when we falter.
Every devotee is precious to the Lord, and He is ever ready to help us succeed.
Every Hindu home must have a copy of the Ramayan, and regular reading of this sacred Book will enable us to emulate the exemplary and immaculate lives of Sri Ram, Mother Sita, Hanumanji and a host of bright and wonderful characters found in this gem of our scriptures.
So, dear devotees, on this very auspicious Day of Sri Ram Navami, let us all take a resolve to cultivate faith and love for our dear Lord Ram. Did not our Master say over and over again that “The One who became Rama and Krishna, has now come into this case (showing his body)”? May all who are tuned to our Master be Blessed with spiritual love and enlightenment!
Swami Saradaprabhanandaji also joins me in wishing everyone of you, abundance of love and healthy life.
With love and prayers

Dear Bharat
Many thanks for your love and concern for my health. As you well know that this body has to pay its toll if used intensively and that’s what had happened on the last Sunday. Last two months were indeed so busy that almost alternate days I was giving Talks at different places. When I got up in the morning last Sunday, I found that my voice was so low that only I could whisper. But on treatment by ENT Specialist Dr Chaitram, I got back my voice. Vaidyo narayana hari – Lord Narayana Hari is the physician – as the saying goes…
Congrats for doing a wonderful job of running the Holy Trio Group. I find more and more people here in SA are being drawn into it.
May your devotion to Master and Mother be intense is my prayer!

Thank you Swamiji for your wonderful message on Raam Naumi, we surely missed Swamiji’s presence during the celebrations at our Ashram.
Hope Swamiji is feeling much better and will join us soon for the Gospel classes.
May the Holy Trinity bless you with good health!

Great Scholars, writers and devotees agree that Sri Hanumanji is indeed the brilliant and shining example as a perfect Karma Yogin. His love and devotion to Sri Ram is matchless! These golden traits of Sri Hanumanji are so often repeated to us devotees, with the hope of strengthening our faith in the Lord. Your constant Divine Inspiration helps and guides us towards our spiritual path!
Jai Sri Ramakrishna!

Swamiji,
Thank you very much for your blessings and such a wonderful message on the occasion of Ram Navami. In India, there is a belief that this photo of “Ram Darbar“, brings prosperity and peace in household. We all have this at home. I learnt that you were not well, I hope and pray to God Almighty to keep you in good health always. May Thakurji and Maa be with you always!
With my promans to you.

“Ramay Ramachandray Ramabhadray Vedase!
Raghunathay Nathay Sitaya Pataye Namah”
Respected Maharaj,
I was late to post in this Post. During Ramnavami, I was in Pune, studying hard to cope up with the exams and surely I missed the pomp and show in our part of the country, with which they celebrate Sri Ramanavami. Sri Mahavir Swami being one of the most worshipped deities in Bihar-Jharkhand area. Neither could I visit the Pune Ashrama, where they had the annual clebrations of the Temple consecration day. So, what I did was, took a brief gap from studies, opened the Ramanam Sankirtan book and sung the sankirtan…whilst singing, the incident in Varanasi Ashrama, when Srimad Swami Brahmanandaji, saw Hanumanji sitting and listening to his Master’s name, came to my mind and it was filled with pure bliss…Thakur made my grief less through this way.
Then again, I saw the beautiful post and the beautiful pictures of the deities in the blog, and my mind was filled with happiness.
Thank you.
Please take my pranam.

Yes, dear Sabuj! its incredible how Master ‘fills’ the intermittent gaps that come in our life! Thinking of Sri Hanumanji always brings happiness in our minds. As Tulasidas says in his famous Sri Hanuman Chalisa, saba sukha lahai tumhari sarana – by your grace one can enjoy all happiness. To quote again Tulasidas, yatra yatra raghunaatha kirtanam, tatra tatra krita mastaka anjalim… wherever Sri Ram’s Name is sung there and there Hanumanji is ever present with folded palms and his head bowing…
I have uploaded here my Talk on Sri Hanuman Jayanti which when you get free time, may listen.
May His Master be in your heart is my prayer.
