TRUE HAPPINESS LIES ONLY AT THE FEET OF GOD GRATITUDE IS POSSIBLE WITH THE GRACE OF SHIVA AND VISHU—ACHARYA BHARAT BHUSHAN

ARA (RNI) On the occasion of Sri Ram Navami Mahotasav, eight day Srimad Bhagwat Katha week Yagya was organized under the banner of Sri Sanatan Shaktipeeth Sansthanam at Maharana Pratap Nagar.

Speaking on the occasion, Acharya Bharat Bhushan Pandey said that the goal of human life lies in always experiencing the surrender at the feet of God. He said that the happiness that a living being gets in Prapti i.e. surrender is rare anywhere else. Life is given to contemplate God and seek His refuge just as water is visible in the form of waves and only gold and other metal are visible in the form of various ornaments, in the same way, Jagdishwar is visible in the form of the world.

Acharya Ji said that it is necessary to implement the religion and way of life and the teachings given by Lord Sri Ved Vyas through the Puranas in life. He said that at present, due to Kalikal, real saints, real scriptures and real religion are beginning to disappear. In the name of religion and Guru, Sanmarg, i.e. Vedic Varnashram moral conduct is being neglected and body-consciousness and body-conscious elements are being nurtured. Lord Krishna established religion and eradicated unrighteousness, preserved the saints and scriptures and destroyed the wicked.

Acharya (Dr.) Bharat Bhushan Pandey said that Lord Shiva and Lord Sri Krishna favour each other. Both are each other’s heart. Quoting Samveda and Chhandogyopanishad, he said that the god of Bhurlok is Lord Shiva and that is why Lord Sri Krishna also sees and worships Lord Shiva in many forms like Asheshwar, Raaseshwar, Gopeshwar, Gopishwar, Vishweshwar etc. Lord Vishnu’s heart is Lord Shiva and Shiva’s heart is Sri Vishnu. There is not even an iota of difference between the two. .

Acharya said that Lord Rudra is a descendant of Lord Sri Krishna and Hari and Har together perform leela to bless the living beings. Similarly, in Rasleela also, both Hrihar is seen and Kandarpa’s Darpa is crushed. Kamdev had also won Sri Brahmaji and had become very defiant. His ego was touching the sky and so Lord Sri Krishna at the age of eight, to crush his ego, performed the leela of Kamavijaya which is called Rasleela. Lord Sri Krishna improved the intelligence of the Gods as per the need while he saved the chaotic elements from the demons. He said that on Mahashivratri, Gopal people go to Ambika forest under the leadership of Nand Baba and worship and anoint Lord Pashupati Gaurishankar. Lord Sri Krishna saved Sudarshan Vidyadhar from th python’s womb. Lord Sri Krishna along with demons like Shankhchud Yaksha, Keshi, Vyomasur, Arishtasur, Shala, Toshal, Charur, Mushtik etc. ended Kansa and his demonic empire. The incarnation of God takes place in Vyaspeeth and Rajpeeth for coordination as per the scriptures. Lord Sri Krishna re-established the Vedic Sanatan Dharma and the Vedic Sanatan Empire. At the age of eleven, Lord Sri Krishna along with Balram entered the Gurukul of Sandipani Maharishi in Ujjaini and studied there and paid Guru Dakshnina by bringing back the Guru’s dead only son from Yamlok.
