Ugadi Celebrations in Prasanthi Nilayam, Puttaparthi

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ugadi celebrations were grandly celebrated in

Prasanthi Nilayam today.

This morning Swami gave Divine darshan to all the devotees in Sai

Kulwant Hall. Later Swami blessed devotees with Holy water. After that

there were some bhajans as part of the Ugadi celebrations. Sai Kulwant

hall was beautifully decorated for the event. Many devotees were here

in Puttaparthi for the celebrations.

Namasmarana

(chanting God's Name) is the process by which an attitude

of dedication can be cultivated and confirmed. When confronted by

calamity, you must attach yourself to this Sadhana (spiritual practice)

even more firmly, instead of losing faith in it and getting slack. The

drug should not be given up when it is most needed. The pity is that,

when the first disappointment confronts you, you lose courage and

confidence, and give up the name of God.

Namasmarana (pengkidungan nama Tuhan)

merupakan suatu proses untuk memupuk semangat dedikasi. Ketika engkau

dikonfrontasi oleh kesusahan, maka seharusnya engkau semakin

mengintensifkan Sadhana ini dan bukannya malah kehilangan keyakinan dan

mengalami kemunduran. Janganlah engkau menyingkirkan obat-obatan di

kala ia benar-benar sangat dibutuhkan. Hanya saja yang patut

disayangkan adalah bahwa kebanyakan orang langsung kehilangan

keberaniannya dan keyakinannya pada saat ia menghadapi kekecewaan untuk

yang pertama kalinya sekalipun. Alhasil, sadhana pengulangan nama-nama

Tuhan juga ditinggalkannya.

 

 

 

 

( translated into German by Stephanie Von

Elverfeldt )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Námasmarana (das

Sich-unaufhörlich-in-Erinnerung-Rufen des NAMENS DES HERRN) ist ein

Vorgang, bei dem eine Haltung der Hingabe gefördert (kultiviert,

gepflegt) und verfestigt werden kann. Wenn Du einer Katastrophe

gegenüber stehst, mußt Du Dich um so standhafter an dieses Sádhana

(diese spirituelle Übung) anbinden, anstatt den Glauben (das Vertrauen)

zu verlieren und nachzulassen. Man sollte mit dem Medikament nicht

aufhören, wenn es am meisten gebraucht wird. Schade ist, dass Du beim

Auftauchen der erstbesten Enttäuschung Mut und Selbstvertrauen

verlierst und den NAMEN GOTTES ablegst.

 

 

 

 

( translated into Italian by Mabatini )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Il Namasmarana ( Canto dei

nomi del Signore) è il processo attraverso cui si può

coltivare e confermare l’attitudine alla

dedizione. Quando ci si trova di fronte alle calamità, dovete

attaccarvi a questa Sadhana (pratica spirituale) ancora con maggiore

fermezza, piuttosto che perdere la fede in essa acquisendo

mollezza.. Non si deve mai interrompere di prendere le medicine,

soprattutto nel momento del massimo bisogno. Peccato che quando dovete

affrontare le prime avversità, perdete coraggio e

fiducia e vi allontanate dal Nome di Dio.

 

( translated into Russian by Vladim )

 

 

Намасмарана (повторение Имени Божьего), - это процесс, с

помощью

которого, отношение посвящения (всего) Богу может быть воспитано и

укреплено. Когда смотрите беде в лицо, вы должны ещё более решительно

держаться этой садханы (духовной практики), вместо того, чтобы терять

веру в неё и становиться слабым. Не следует отказываться от лекарства,

тогда, когда в нём очень нуждаетесь. Как ни печально, но как только вы

сталкиваетесь с первой неприятностью, вы теряете мужество и веру, и

отказываетесь от имени Бога.

 

 

 

 

( translated into Dutch by Sama Chintha Group

Belgium )

 

 

Namasmarana

(het zingen van de Naam van God) is de methode waarbij een houding van

toewijding kan worden aangekweekt en verstevigd. Wanneer je

geconfronteerd wordt met tegenspoed, hou je dan nog steviger vast aan

deze Sadhana (spirituele praktijk) in plaats van je vertrouwen te

verliezen en af te zwakken. Geef het medicijn niet op wanneer je dit

het meest nodig hebt. Het spijtige is dat bij je eerste ontgoocheling,

je de moed en het zelfvertrouwen verliest en de naam van God loslaat.

 

( translated into French by Anamika )

 

 

Namasmarana (la répétition du Nom De Dieu),

est le procès, avec l'aide

de qui, la relation de la dédicace (de tout) au Dieu peut être élevée

et est affermi. Quand regardez le malheur en face, vous devez encore

plus décisivement vous tenir par celui-ci садханы (la pratique

spirituelle), au lieu de perdre la foi en elle et devenir faible. Il ne

faut pas refuser le médicament, alors, quand en avez besoin beaucoup.

Comme est triste, mais dès que vous vous heurtez au premier ennui, vous

perdez le courage et la foi, et refusez de.

 

 

 

( translated into Portugese by Anamika )

 

 

O Namasmarana (cantando o Nome de Deus) é o

processo pelo qual uma

atitude da dedicação pode ser cultivada e confirmada. Quando

confrontado pela calamidade, você deve atar-se a este Sadhana (prática

espiritual) mesmo mais firmemente, em vez de perder a fé nele e

tornar-se solto. A droga não deve ser abandonada quando é mais

necessário. A compaixão é que, quando a primeira decepção o confronta,

você perde a coragem e a confiança, e abandona o nome do Deus.
