Speech of HH Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji at His Birthday - May 26, 2012 - Mysore
Jaya Guru Datta
The most unforgettable, the happiest, the most significant, the most important, and the most blessed day in the life of Sadgurudeva Sri Swamiji and in the lives of all His devotees for generations to come is the day of his initiation in the Hanuman Temple by his divine mother Sri Jayalakshmi Mata 60 years ago in this same Nandana year, during this same week in the month of May, in the year of Bliss," declared Sri Swamiji this morning on the most auspicious occasion of His 70th Birthday according to the western calendar.
The 12 sayings that she blessed the 10 year old boy Satyanarayana with, as commands to follow throughout his life contain the essence of all the Vedas and the Upanishads. Out of the 12 sayings, at least 1200,000 spiritual messages have sprung up and this inexhaustible treasure will continue to generate more and more spiritual wisdom in the future. These commands have determined the destiny of the boy. They are responsible for what our most beloved Sri Swamiji is today, the Universal Spiritual Master who holds the future of hundreds of thousands of His family members, His friends, and His followers in His fist, leading us all by hand on the divine path of Dharma, inspiring us all in a myriad ways through music, counseling, message videos, mantras, rituals, healing, and countless other ingenious and exciting methods.
The twelve sayings or ‘lines to live by’ that Sri Jayalakshmi Mata had given to Swamiji were meant not only to regulate his lifestyle and values, but also those of all His devotees worldwide. They contain the essence of all the four Vedas, all the Upanishads, and all the Scriptures. If one strictly follows them daily, perfection is certainly attainable. Sri Swamiji’s life has demonstrated it. Sri Bala Swamiji has been commanded by Swamiji to expound in detail on each single saying and to explain its deep inner spiritual meaning in an upcoming published work. These sayings should be memorized by each and every devotee and should be strictly put in practice.
This year on his Birthday Sri Swamiji is launching the most exciting Musical Message Sayings - the MMS project/competition that is going to revolutionize the very concept of Spiritual Instruction and Guidance by a Sadguru of a Global Stature who reaches the young, the old, the scholar, the layman, the rich, and the poor, through various features via the Internet reaching out to every nook and corner in this world.
