BHAGAVAD GEETA: 37. Swami Advayanandaji.

 

Chinmaya Mission:

Chinmaya Vibhooti had the privilege of hosting a Shrimad Bhagavad Saptah camp from October 26th to November 2nd, 2023, conducted by Swami Advaitananda from Chinmaya Mission Nashik. 

The most remarkable moment of the camp was the inauguration ceremony, graced by the presence of the revered Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayananda, who made a special trip to Chinmaya Vibhooti for this auspicious occasion, much to the joy of all attendees.

This Sapthaham was organized in loving memory of Shri K K Kela by his family, with open registration for all interested individuals. 

A total of 150 participants experienced the profound teachings of the Bhagavata and engaged in festivities, including Sharad Purnima raas and Karwa Chauth puja. 

The entire Chinmaya Vibhooti campus welcomed the campers, who were deeply impressed by its beautiful features and excellent facilities.

Slogam - 15: Passing the Trials of Life

Yam hi na vyathayanti ete  = Whom surely these afflict not,

purusham purusharshabha; = such a man, a “Bull among men”,

sama-duhkha-sukham dheeram = is firm and faces equally both pain & pleasure.

sah amritatvaaya kalpate. = He alone is fit for realizing the Immortality of the Self.

=========================================================================

Endurance of difficulties, trials and tribulations prepares a seeker. It is God’s way 

of putting us through the grinding mill so that we are better equipped to tread the divine 

path. The cultivation of the right attitude is most important in this regard.


"If the ATTITUDE is right, pain can make a person; if it is wrong, the same pain can break a person."


Acharyaji gave us a beautiful Samskrit quotation which says: “Just as joy cannot 

cause one any sorrow, so too, sorrow should not cause one any Sorrow. By the same token, 

we should not allow joy to be the cause of our Joy.” In the above quote, the highlighted 

words refer to the deeper level of experience; the other terms are at the superficial level. 


Acharyaji’s take was: “Sorrow will only not matter, if joy does not matter.” 

Sorrow comes with a self-addressed envelope; when its visit is over it has to go back 

to where it came from.


The important point Acharyaji tried to stress was that sorrow and joy, Sukha and 

Duhkha, are not our properties, they do not belong to us. We should not identify with them. 

If we allow them to rule our life, it will be a series of ups and downs. We will have a very 

bumpy ride.

The “Bull Among Men”

Dheerah: 

The wise person has the poised intellect that gives him clarity on all 

experiences in life. His attitude is, “Why should I worry about worry? It comes and goes, so 

why should I worry about it?” 


How is it possible to see both happiness and sorrow as the same? Are we expected 

to be like some sort of “super-granite”? The answer Acharyaji gave us is: “I can be the same 

to both if my attention is not on them. If I raise my attention to a higher ideal, I will not be 

aware of them as ‘joy’ or as ‘sorrow’. That is the state we should aspire for.”

Having the will to withstand hardships is a great quality in life. It brings its own 

rewards. In this verse that reward is said to be “fitness for the spiritual life”. One is brought 

closer to God by having this one quality of endurance in pleasure and pain. This speaks 

volumes of the importance of having endurance.


Such a person becomes a “lion among men.” Such a person becomes fit for the 

rigours of the spiritual life. 

Some Examples: 

1. The example quoted was of the freedom-fighters of India. Lokamanya Tilak, one of 

the leaders of the freedom struggle and political mentor of Gandhiji and many others, was 

in prison once. A letter was brought to him – “Your wife has just passed away” – while he 

was busy with a letter to the country’s people. He folded it up and threw it in the dustbin. 

When the warden asked him why he reacted so coldly, he said, “I am feeling the tears of the 

nation every moment of my life. I have none to spare for my own.”


2. A person received a gift of a ring from his father. The father told him not to 

remove the ring from his finger except when things go really bad for him. During a very bad 

period in life, when he was about to take his life, he remembered his father’s words. He 

took out the ring and, as he played with it, he noticed an inscription on it. He began to read 

it – “Even this will pass away.” Tears came to his eyes. He decided to endure his problems. 

Soon they did pass away.

###OPINION: PEOPLE OF BHARATHAM POSITIVE:

=========================================================================

1. SANATANA DHARMA, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS HINDUISM IS ETERNAL, WHOLE UNIVERSE IS EXISTING IN THIS TRUTH

2.  EVER EXISTING

3.  THERE IS NO SPACE FOR ADHARMA

4. ALL DEMONIC ELEMENTS DEMOLISHED BY DHARMA

5. SO NO QUESTION EVIL ASURIC DEMONIC FRAGMENT'S BARKING, THEY WILL BE   ULTIMATELY BURNED AND DESTROYED BY NATURE.

6. PURE CONSCIOUSNESS IS DIVINE AND SUPREME, ALL OTHERS MEANINGLESS

7. NATURE IS ABOVE ALL, EVER EXISTING, ALL OTHERS MEANINGLESS.

8. THE CONTENT OF SO-CALLED HOLY BOOK IS NO HOLY AT ALL, AS IT PREACHES HATRED AND DESTRUCTION OF OTHER MANKIND, RELIGIOUS CONVERSIONS AND LIES OF UNCIVILIZED MATERIALS

9. CHRISTIANITY IS EQUALLY DEMONSTRATED CRUELTY, THE SO CALLED HOLY BOOK FULL OF LIES

10. BOTH ARE NOT RELIGIONS BUT SAMPRADAYA (ILLITERATE MAN MADE, NOT BASED ON DHARMA

11. THE CULTURE OF BHARATHAM BASED ON UPANISHADS AND FULL OF  REALISATION TEXTS ARE PRODUCED BY GREAT RISHIS OF BHARATHAM

12. IN THIS MATERIALISTIC DESTRUCTIVE MINDED UNIVERSE, NO RELIGIONS COMPARABLE OR ABOVE SANATANA DHARMA OF BHARATHAM.

2. Congress & Communists destroyed this holy Nation Sanatana Dharama; the imported stupid secularism degenerated this Nation Ancient Culture and Civilization

3. Till 2014 nation was ruled by corrupt idiots,and all regions too, Dynasty rule dominated than Nation interests.

4. Brushing away mainstream population sides and Muslims and Christians become political parties vote banks.

5. Communists openly abused our ancient culture, Upanishads, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavtham and daites.

6. The communists next donkey group, latest stunt of America visit and the comedy programmed namely Kerala sabha!? these buggers destroyed Kerala in all and joining with radical Islam soon they will be eliminated, people of Kerala get up from donkey thoughts, otherwise Kerala shrink to extinct in all way.

7. Communists are danger to our civilization, their lunatic theories disappeared throughout the world, Time has come crush them, and eliminate them from our nation, they are danger to this holy nation.

=========================================================================

NOTE:

1. POLITICIANS (THOSE IGNORANT AND DEMONIC NATURED) ARE NOT THE AUTHORITY TO OPEN THEIR UGLY FOUL MOUTH AND UTTER NONSENSE UPON SANATHANA DHARMAM.

2. THE NONSENSE COMMENDY ALLIANCE ARE NOT THE AUTHORITY ON SANATHA DHARMAM.

5.ALL SANATHANA DHARMAM FOLLOWERS (WHICH EVER YOUR POLITICAL INTEREST BE: YOUR POLITICAL MINDSET) TAKE AN OATH THAT YOU STAND AGAINST ALL EVIL MINDSET AGAINST SANATHANA DHARMAM!!!

=========================================================================

######6.
