Sir

I may humbly requst your goodself to give vide publcity for the following

event.

after necessary editing.Forigners also will be interested to understand the

spirituality of olden era of Bharat.

Based on the references regarding the scietifical contents in Srimad

Bhagavatham Americans are conducting many reserch'

The following are very few.

1.Why Bhagavan Lord Krishna says that among flowers I am the thulasi flower.

US scientists found out after reserch that

thulasi flower can only produce Ozone which acts as a protective cover in

the ionosphere and it can also be used for life saving medicines.

2, Also with Banyan tree Among the trees I am the Banyan tree which can

prduce maximum oxygen usually seen in almost all temples the air around 5

KMs radious will be purified around a big banyan tree.

3.Fetus (fully developed embryo in the womb) from 7th month onwards can

understand and study. For this examples are Prahlada and Abhimanue who got

knowledge when they were 7 months old in the womb.

4. One Homan was being conducted in a family at Bhopal when the union

Carbide Gas accident took place. The whole members of the family were safe

eventhough it was near the factory since smoke emenated from the Homam

neutralised the effect of gas.

Such so many scientifical aspects are beind revealed after reserch and study

SRIMAD BHAGAVATHA SATHRAM

 

The 20th All-India Sreemad Bhagavatha Sathram will be held at the

Puthericandam maidan in front of the Pashvangadi Ganapathi and Sri

PadmanabhaSwamy Temples in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala from December 22 to

29.Smt. P.V. Santha Devi, chairperson, and Smt P. Suseela Devi,said that

convener of the Sathra Mathrusamithy that sanyasins, `Bhagavatha' acharyas

and scholars from all over the country would participate. Tens of thousands

of devotees were also expected to participate in the week-long religious

event. They said that the `sathram' was organised first during the initial

days of `Kaliyuga', roughly 5,000 years ago, as a divine weapon to rid the

world of the evils of `Kali'. It was revived in the late seventies as an

annual celebration of the `namajapa yagnas' which used to be held once a

month by

turn in the `illams' of Malayali brahmins of the Karukidam, Meenachal and

Ramapuram in Kottayam. Kerala

 

How Srimad Bhagavatham originated ?. Bhagavan Sri Krishna advised Sri Brahma

the creator of the world living and nonliving beings as follows known as

..CHATHUSLOKI BHAGAVATHAM.

 

O my Lord, the unborn, You have shaken hands with me just as a friend does

with a friend [as if equal in position]. I shall be engaged in the creation

of different types of living entities, and I shall be occupied in Your

service. I shall have no perturbation, but I pray that all this may not give

rise to pride, as if I were the Supreme.

 

The Personality of Godhead said: Knowledge about Me as described in the

scriptures is very confidential, and it has to be realized in conjunction

with devotional service. The necessary paraphernalia for that process is

being explained by Me. You may take it up carefully.

 

All of Me, namely My actual eternal form and My transcendental existence,

color, qualities and activities-let all be awakened within you by factual

realization, out of My causeless mercy.

Brahmâ, it is I, the Personality of Godhead, who was existing before the

creation, when there was nothing but Myself. Nor was there the material

nature, the cause of this creation. That which you see now is also I, the

Personality of Godhead, and after annihilation what remains will also be I,

the Personality of Godhead.

 

..O Brahmâ, whatever appears to be of any value, if it is without relation to

Me, has no reality. Know it as My illusory energy, that reflection which

appears to be in darkness.

 

..O Brahmâ, please know that the universal elements enter into the cosmos and

at the same time do not enter into the cosmos; similarly, I Myself also

exist within everything created, and at the same time I am outside of

everything.

 

A person who is searching after the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Personality

of Godhead, most certainly search for it up to this, in all circumstances,

in all space and time, and both directly and indirectly.

 

 

 

After getting these advises Brahma advised Narada with more commentry and

Sri Narada advised Sri Veda Vysa who is found to be gloomy even after

written all the Vedas ,Puranas, Epics,and so many other scriptures, to write

a book with spirituality and materialism combined together giving more

importance to the philosophy, stories and devotional songs relating to Lord

Krishna. Accordingly He wrote this book relates the story of the Lord and

His Incarnations since the earliest records of the vedic history. It is

verily the Krishna himself ( Krishnathu Bhagavan Swayam). It has 18.000

verses and consists of 12 subsections also called canto's. These sections

tell the complete history of the vedic culture with the essence of all its

classical stories called purâna's and includes the cream of the vedic

knowledge compiled from all the literatures as well as the story of the life

of Lord Krishna in full (canto 10). It tells about His birth, His youth, all

His wonderful proofs of His divine nature and the superhuman feats of

defeating all kind of demons up to the great Mahabharat war at Kuruksetra

incarnation in the Human form of Lord Vishnu [the name for the

transcendental form of Lord Krishna] which has got a message, the daring

task of enlightening the materialist westerners as well as the advanced

philosophers and theologians, in order to help them to overcome the perils

and loneliness of impersonalism and the philosophy of emptiness.

 

He taught his son Sri .Suka and He advised to Sri Parikshit Maharaja (one of

the grandsons of Sri Krishna ) who knew that he will die within seven days

and what best to do in this period is to hear Srimad Bhagavatham with

fasting.Sri Suka preached Srimad Bhagavatham to the king and he is freed

from the death of fear. Thus the seven days Sapthaham started. This Sathram

is a modified one in which various Acharyas will give preaching emphasising

the philosophy, history, and scientifical aspects in series. The main

advantage for the audiance is that they can hear the best part from each

Acharyas.

 

The first Sathram was conducted in Kuichithanam Devi Temple near Kottayam,

kerala from 23rd August to 28 th august 1983 with blessings of Sri

Guruvayoorappan the deity is brought from Guruvayoor after conducting Puja

in the temple by the Thanthri Sri Chennas Nampoothiripad.The main force

behind this venture was Sri Madasseri Vasudevan Namboothiri who was the soul

and spirit.

 

The main Acharyas were Sri Vaisravanath Raman Nmboothiri, Sri Anjam Madhavan

Nampoothiri, Sri. Ottur Unni Nampoothiri, Sri Malliyur Sankaran Nampoothiri,

Swami Guruvayoorappa Das, Venmany Nampoothiri, Sri Vengeri Nampoothiri,Sri,

Mulavana Maheswaran Bhattathiri.etc.Sathram started with Ganapathy Homam by

Soorya kalady Bhattathiri.This attempt was a grand success with the

blessings of Lord Guruvayoorappan.

 

After that it is being conducted every year at different places in Kerala

and it has got an All India attraction and Acharyas from different parts of

India will attend this function.

 

In this year a committe is formed.
