Tumheecha teete saaruni daavaa mukha jana taaraayaa
Dark worldly night has finished and left you. You are beyond all illusions. Yet the ignorant are deceived by these illusions (‘Yogmaya’). We do not have even the slightest of powers to ward off these illusions. You alone can grant salvation to the people by giving darshan (divine vision) of your divine face.

Thee varnitaa bhaagale bahuvadani sesvidhi kavee
O, Lord Sainath Maharaj, you are the sun that destroys the darkness of ignorance of this world. How ignorant we are! You alone can describe your greatness. Even the great poets and thousand headed Seshnag (snake on which Lord Vishnu rests) are exhausted in their attempt to describe it.

Mercifully, therefore, O Lord you alone can describe your greatness. Tide over…

Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
It is dawn and the auspicious rays of the sun are radiating over the sky. Whosover meditates on the Guru at this time cannot be harmed by the pitfalls of Kaliyug (The dark and troublesome Age of present). Therefore, with folded hands, let us now pray to the Guru. May the Samarth (Powerful) Guru Sainath fulfil our desires.

Tamaa nirasi bhaanu ha Guruhi naasi agnyaanataa

Punhaa thimir janm ghe Gurukrupeni agnaan naa
Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
As the sun dispels the darkness, the Guru destroys ignorance. But the sun cannot really be ever compared to the Guru, because darkness gathers again after the sun is set; but, once the Guru blesses, ignorance never re-appears. May the Samarath Guru Sainath fulfil our desires.

Tuzheech upama tulaa baravi shobhate sajjanaa
Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
If we compare the Guru with Brahma, or Harihar (MahaVishnu or Sadashiv), the Guru is mightier. Then why does this comparison come to my mind as an unwanted visitor? O Guru, your excellence cannot have resemblance to any being other than you. May the Samarth (Powerful) Guru Sainath fulfil our desires.

Twadeeya vachnokti tee madhur vaaritee saankhade
Ajaataripu Sadguro akhil pathkaa bhanjanaa
Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
Now, come out of your meditations, O Guru, and come to the mosque, so that your sweet words may destroy the devotees’ difficulties. You are devoid of any enemies.

Na tatswahit tyaa kalae karitase rikamya gapaa
Jari Gurupada dhari sudhrid bhaktineh tho manaa
Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
However wise a person is if he does not have the Guru’s blessings, he cannot understand what is good for his welfare and can only indulge in mere prattle. If he just firmly holds the Guru’s feet with concentrated devotion. May the Samarth (Powerful) Guru Sainath fulfil our desires.

Guro vinati mee karee hridayamandiree yaa basaa
Samasth jag he guruswaroopee ttaso maanasaa
Ghado satat sathkrutee matihi deh jagatjpaavanaa
Samartha Guru Sainath puravee manovaasanaa
O, Guru, I entreat you to make your abode in the temple of my heart. Stamp upon my mind that the whole world is the image of my Guru. O Lord! Mould me and give me the power and intelligence, so that I always have the desire to do good deeds. May the Samarth (Powerful) Guru Sainath fulfil our desires.

Preme yaa asthakaashi paduni Guruvaraa
Praarthitee je prabhaatee
Tyaanche chittasee deto akhilharooniyaan

“Those who read the above eight verses with love and devotion for the Guru’s morning prayers, I remove from their mind all their misgivings and grant them total peace of mind” – this was told to me, by Sainath, as one tells to his own child.

Rudraksha (s)-Tears of Shiva

Rudraksha is the seed of Rudraksha tree. This tree grows mainly in Nepal, Java, Sumatra and Rishikesh, Hardwar, Karnataka are some main places in India. Our seers observed these peculiarities and made detailed investigations because they found lot of energy in each seed. In Vedic
Literature they have widely explained the beneficial properties of attracting healthy vibrations. Yogis wear it as a necklace. One cell seed or Ekamukhi Rudraksha is in great demand due to its high energy potential. Mrs Indira Gandhi, former prime minister of India used to wear the necklace of Ekamukhi Rudraksha.
Rudraksha for health Rudraksha determines positive or negative energy currents flowing in the body of every person. The blood pressure of the wearer becomes normal. Its energy charges help and strengthen the heart reduces tension.
Benefits Lightening does not strike the wearer, protects him from accidents, and bestows good luck. Person with positive energy current should wear on the right hand; with negative currents on left hand. It can be worn on the neck threaded with gold, silver, wire, in a silk or woolen thread. So that it remains in gentle touch with the body to boost in unity.
Rudraksh is of special importance in religious ceremonies and prayers of God - Goddesses. It is difficult to get one faced and 9 to 14 faced Rudraksh. One faced rudraksh is very rare and is very powerful. The 5 faced Rudraksh Chain (mala) is therefore considered ideal for pooja purposes. A rosary of 26 beads of rudraksha is placed on head, a rosary of 50 beads is placed over the heart, while a 16 beaded rosary is kept on the forehead.

Sankat Chauth ~ to Hindu God Ganesha

Sankata Nivarini Chaturthi, also known as Sankat Chauth or Sankashta Chaturti, is dedicated to Hindu God Ganesha. Sankata Nivarini Chaturthi date in April 2011 is April 21, Thursday.

The Chandrodaya Time on April 21, 2011 (Moonrise Time) in Maharashtra is given at 10:29 PM. Sankashta Chaturthi fasting is observed on the fourth day of the Krishna Paksha or waning phase of moon as per traditional Hindu lunar calendar.

The vrat is observed by millions of Ganesh devotees and it is considered to be highly meritorious and wish fulfilling upvaas. Special pujas are held in Ganesh temples on the day.

The importance of Sankata Nivarini Chaturthi was explained by Lord Krishna to Yudhishtira, the eldest of the Pandavas. It is also detailed in the Narasimha Purana and Bhavishaya Purana.

How Hanuman Jayanti is observed

Hanuman Jayanti or Hanuman Jayanthi is one of the main Hindu Festivals and is celebrated to commemorate the birthday or Lord Hanuman or Anjaneya Swamy. Hanuman Jayanti is observed on the full moon day (Purnima or Poornima) in the Hindu month of Chaitra (March – April).

Lord Hanuman, an ardent devotee of Lord Ram or Ramachandra, is worshipped all over India as well in other countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, and Thailand. Another importance of Hanuman Jayanti is that, the festival is celebrated not only in Lord Hanuman Temples but also in Lord Ram Temples, as Hanuman is worshipped along with Lord Ram. Hanuman is the greatest devotee of Lord Rama, and seeing his unparalleled devotion Lord Ram gave him the boon to be along with Him and get worshipped by his devotees wherever Lord Ram is worshipped.

Lord Hanuman signifies strength, bravery, intelligence, spirit of selfless service, and his unparalleled devotion towards his master, Lord Rama. Lord Hanuman is known by other names such as Anjaneya, Vayu Putra, Bajrang Bali, Pavanasuta, Marutsuta, Kesari Nandan, Pavankumar, Maruti, and Mahavira.

Observing Hanuman Jayanti

On the auspicious day of Hanuman Jayanti, devotees wake up early in the morning and after bath chant the Hanuman Gayatri Mantra and read the Hanuman Chalisa and Bajrang Baan Stotra. Devotees spend the whole day chanting prayers and mantras on Lord Rama and Hanuman. Devotees also visit Hanuman Temple or Lord Ram temples and conduct pujas and offerings. Most devotees visit Hanuman Temple or temples dedicated to Lord Ram and spend the day in the temple. Hanuman devotees also fast on the Hanuman Jayanti day.

As Lord Anjaneya is regarded as the personification of strength and bravery, praying Lord Hanuman and chanting his names is believed to increase the inner strength for overall development.

Hanuman Gayatri Mantra Lyrics

Om Aanjaneya Vidhmahe
Vayu puthraya Dheemahe
Thanno Hanumant Prachodayath

Hanuman Gayatri Mantra Meaning
Om, Let me meditate on the son of Anjana,
Oh, son of Vayu Deva (God of air), give me higher intellect,
And let Hanuman illuminate my mind.

Oh Hingula Devi... Hinglaj Maa

Welcome to the most sacred temple built by nature over 200,000 years ago,” said the pujari (the priest) when we entered the holy place nestled in the colorful mineral-caked overhanging cliff of an old river. At the same time, we heard drum-beats & bhajan (devotional song). The sound echoed off the surrounding peaks giving supernatural effects. The pujari recited a mantra, “Oh Hingula Devi, she who holds nectar in her self and is power incarnate. She who is one with Lord Shiva, to her we pay our respects and make this offering (swaha)"

Later, he explained that Hinglaj is one of the holiest shakti peeth (sites of cosmic power) of Hinduism. To calm down an entranced Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu is believed to have carved Sati’s Body into dozens of pieces and spread them across the South Asia. Mythology states that the head landed at Hinglaj. Lord Ram had meditated here.

Where is God They are around with us

We have all heard people say "where is a policeman when you need one" Why do people say that, simple there is a problem.

Every so often you will hear some say " Where is God when I need Him".

Why do they only need God when they have a problem and why do they blame God for not being there. I have said it before, ask a stranger to give you $500 and see what happens then ask someone who trusts you.

Why should God help you if he does not know you, even if the situation is real bad He is not going just stop the world for you, you have never stop to spend time with Him.

God will help everyone who is prepared to help themselves and if you spend the time talking with God and telling him what you need and asking if it is the way to go he will answer. However, if you sit in a corner and expect things to come to you, you are going to be in that corner a long time. Get out and put your heart into what you are wanting to do and talk with God all the while. I do it and at times I forget where I am and get the odd look of 'shame he talks to him self" or he is nuts. Well it is quite amazing that while I am doing something and talking with God how things just work out. I ask him to help with just little mundane things, or a minor problem that I want to solve. I scratch my head and look at the problem and ask' God what would you do" or How would You do it" it is not long before the solution is found. I did not think of the solution if I had, then I would not have needed to ask for help.

God is always there, you just have to find him and you are not going to find him by sitting with your mouth and mind shut. You can ask him anything and once He knows that you want to change your life and make Him the most important person in your life you will not only have the best friend in the world but also the best advisor and confidant. Remember he made you and he knows you inside out. He will not take lightly to you trying to pull the wool over His eyes. Give Him the life he has loaned you and ask Him to run it for you and when you ask He will be there in an instant.
