Bhajan evening in Strilky Ashram
21:50 - 22:54|Recorded on 24 Jun 2024
Without a true mind, nothing is purified. The mind cannot be purified without being true. Whether one performs austerities or pilgrimages, or practices yoga and samadhi, all is in vain without the true mind. The grace of the Satguru is essential. Upon seeing the Guru's form, the mind can attain supreme ecstasy. All spiritual practices depend on the Guru's word and grace. The true mind and the Guru's grace are the sole means to the divine.
"Mana saccā binā nahīṁ sudhare."
"Sat guru nama chaha, chahe panama chaha visa vi desha."

Attain true knowledge and unity through devotion and righteous conduct. Pursue real knowledge by following spiritual association and duty, abandoning aimless wandering. Purify the heart by contemplating sacred texts and cultivating love for the humble. Cease all internal quarreling. Emulate the great saints who endured severe trials. Through meditation on the divine, achieve self-independence. This attainment brings both spiritual and worldly prosperity. Meeting the formless, unsupported Guru brings unity through divine sight and song.
"Remove all impurities and reflect upon the Vedas and Purāṇas. Have love in your heart for the meek."
"Meditate on Śiva Śaṅkara and attain svarāja, self-independence. Then you will gain great wealth, both spiritual and worldly."

The discourse offers an invocation of victory and a prayer to the guru.
The salutation begins with hail to the divine, proclaiming victory to Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān, Śrī Śrī Devpurījī Mahādeva, Satguru Svāmīmādhavānandjī, and Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśvar Śrī Svāmī Maheśvarānandjī. A devotional prayer then follows. Obeisance is offered to the guru again and again, with millions of prostrations. The Sustainer is addressed with a humble and heartfelt supplication. Birth is requested in the ocean of bliss. The guru’s form is described with a face like the moon. Within that form, Śiva dances in divine movement. The devotee wishes to gaze upon this form continuously for eight watches. The ultimate refuge is found at the lotus feet of the guru. After the prayer, further exclamations resound, proclaiming victory again to Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān, Śrī Devī Svaramadevā, Śrī Sattva Gurudeva, and Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara Śrī Svāmī Maheśvarānandajī Gurudeva. The phrase “Mahāprabhujīp Karatā” appears as a reverential repetition, possibly a transcription artifact. The entire litany follows a conventional pattern of Hindu salutation. All titles are used consistently with traditional honorifics. No logical contradictions or errors arise in the sequence. The chant is a pure devotional offering. It invokes presence and grace.
“Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ, Bhagavān, Kī Jai, Śrī Śrī Devpurījī, Mahādeva, Kī Jai, Śrī Satguru Svāmīmādhavānandjī, Bhagavān, Kī Jai, Viśvaguru, Mahāmaṇḍaleśvar, Śrī Svāmī Maheśvarānandjī, Gurudeva, Kī Jai.”
“Namo Namo Gurudevajī, Koṭi Koṭi Praṇām, Pālaka Pālaka Prabho Yeviṇati, Sukhasāgarani Janam, Guru Mūrati Mukha Candra Mā, Śivakane Nācako Aṣṭa Pahar Nirakata Rahū, Guru Caraṇa Kamalaki Ūr.”

The Path of Grace and Guidance

From: 12 Apr 2025
The main topic is the path of the guru, encompassing wisdom, practice, and liberation.
First, pray to Gaṇeśa for protection and wisdom. The guru is this form of Gaṇeśa. The master gives information about the universe and the aim to become one with the Self. Practice systematically and slowly to cross all obstacles, purifying the nervous system, thoughts, and feelings. The outer world tempts with sensory satisfaction, which can pull one down. To reach the highest aim, one needs a master who knows the safe way and gives mantras and support. Repeat the name of God or the mantra to connect with the highest energy, liberating from ignorance and wrong identification with the body. Worldly toys change and disappoint; the inner Self is complete and without suffering. The guru is a paras stone that converts the disciple into a swan, a liberated soul. Without the guru, life had no sense; with the master, there is no more suffering. Realize the guru in yourself.
"Please, do not forget, this is always disappointing, and it will not change. You should understand, you should think on this highest, on God, because this is the inner Self, and that is what we are searching for."
"Realize your guru in yourself."

Give More Quality To Your Life

A mantra is that which satisfies and liberates the mind. The mind is never satisfied, like a bowl made of mind that gold cannot fill. It is like a ghost that demands constant work; without a task, it becomes destructive. The mantra gives the mind a steady job, trapping it in satisfaction. It is a sentence that slowly transforms us from within, cleansing darkness, problems, and doubts. The mind becomes tranquil, and meditation arises. The mantra guides us toward our aim of reuniting with our origin, the Absolute Divine.
Mantras have two parts: one expresses your wish, the other is a prayer. The essence is: "Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me." Light is knowledge; darkness is sorrow and ignorance. Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness, a path to spirituality. Its meaning is union—the oneness of individual consciousness with the universal. Our inner thirst is to return to that endless joy. Human life is given for this self-realization. To achieve it, follow ethical and spiritual principles and maintain the body through healthy living and disciplined practice. Yoga is a scientific system for the well-being of body, mind, and soul, leading to harmony and health. It begins with gentle, daily physical practice. Discipline is essential; start now. Life is given to enjoy, not to suffer. The body needs gentle care, not force or competition.
"Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me."
"Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness. It is a primary step, a philosophy, a path to spirituality."
