SGS Ashrama MAY 2005

[Guest guest]

Jaya Guru Datta

 

Dear people,

I participated in the 63rd Birthday celebrations of Sri Swamiji in SGS Ashrama

Mysore.

 

It was an experience which words can not describe properly and i recommend every

reader to make the visit to Mysore.

 

Some sharings:

I believe ones mere physical presence in the ashrama cultivates ones spiritual

growth. Therefore it is nearest to a paradise on earth. --There were many (only)

beautiful people in the ashram, .. i wondered why they all look so beautiful. I

think they all look beautiful because they experience spiritual growth and

therefore they are happy from the inside and therefore they look beautiful. This

one should experience!!

 

I went up Chamundi Hill a few times, when there was no program, because i was

enthralled by beauty of the mountain and because i wanted to do some physical

excersise. On top of the mountain there is a beautiful Devi temple. However

somehow i did not enter the temple. The Supreme mother Goddess is very present

in every part of that mountain. It is very special, this one should experience.

 

Ones understanding of singing bhajans, doing puja, etc will chance totally if

one has experienced it at the ashram. In the universal prayer hall or in the

Nada Mantapam one gets an enormous boost of spiritual strength by merely

participating. Interressing for some people might be that in the universal

prayer hall pictures of many saints and sages are there even of Dayananda

Sarasvati and Guru Nanak. In this beautiful hall one can read things such as: It

is not the boat that is important it is important that you reach the

destination. I believe it will even give a layman great spiritual satisfaction

doing namashkaram or pradakshina in this great hall. This one should experience.

 

Sri Swamiji is feeding the local poor people and aiding them with medical help

on a daily basis. Helping the needy with a selfless caracter is the best karmic

deed. So supporting the ashram is therefore a good deed. One should experience

this.

 

I was surprised that some bold devotees had travelled alone to the ashram and

that they were there for the first time. I made my decision to go and

participate when i read some recent online speech which said if you feel God

calls you and if you have time then come and participate. Words can not

adequately describe my visit, but if i have to write something then i would say

that there you will have no stress. This one has to experience.

 

I hope and pray that with Sri Swamjij His blessing not only i but also my family

can visit the ashram soon again.

 

Sri Guru Datta

Winand.
