Speech of HH Sri Datta Vijayananda Teertha Swamiji - Hyderabad - April 12, 2013
Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama.
We have superbly celebrated Vijaya Nama Samvatsara Ugadi in Pujya Sadgurudeva’s presence. Appaji has given us divine darshan, which we cannot forget in our lifetime. We have stepped into a New year, bidding farewell to last year Nandana. Welcomed Vijaya Nama Samvatsara with Sadguru Darshan and listening to Divya Nama Sankeertana. Before leaving, Sadguru made sankalpa that this New Year should be good for everyone. Let the divine grace of Karya Siddhi Anajaneya Swamy be showered on everyone. Swamiji today morning blessed us to start Sri Rama Raksha Homa by giving yellow rice. All the ritwiks-priests were given the deeksha, duty to perform the homa with devotion and dedication. Let those who are participating in this good deed be blessed and let good happen to them. Let there be loka kalyanam and viswashanti - world peace, with that sankalpa Rama Raksha yaga is being conducted here. Under the guidance of Chintapalli Subrahmany Sharma, Akella Venkat Narayana Avadhani, Maruti Sharma and others are conducting this yaga starting from today onwards.
This Vijaya Nama Samvatsara has started with victory. It has given us all a positive hint that everyone will achieve victory in this year. All these days until Sri Rama Navami this yaga will be performed here, with pujya Swamiji’s blessings. We are conducting this in the presence of Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Swamy. Yesterday during the speech, Swamiji has told that while seeing Anjaneya Swamy he feels like either to stay here in Hyderabad in His presence, or take Anjaneya Swamy along with Him to Mysore. The power of Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Swamy is like that. Such a powerful idol has been installed here. He has been continuously solving the countless problems of devotees. Those who are chanting the mantra
Tvamasmin Kaarya Niryoge
Pramaanam Hari Sattama
Hanuman Yatna Maasthaaya
Dukha Kshaya Karo Bhava
as chanted by Seeta Maha Lakshmi, also chanting Om Namo Hanumate Namah, by tying Poorna Phala are getting rid of all kinds of problems. He is giving an assurance that He is with us always. That kind of Swamy is being installed here. His strength has still increased. Rama has prayed ‘Atibala…’. Anjaneya has names Atibala, Vajrakaya. There is nobody more powerful than Him in this universe. All devatas are in Him. In Sundarakanda they pray to Him that within You all powers are there, all brahmandas are there, all devatas are there are in You, You have equal powers of vayu-air. Listening to these prayer, Mahakaya-He will increase Himself.
Those who are doing His keertana and praising His strengths, He will protect them. Even to those who have lost their hope and who has nothing and no one in this world to help him, those who are helpless anadhan- orphan, who have no rakshana-protection, only enemies, for them also Swamy will protect them. When Rama was angry, Anajaneya has gone for war, in Ramaanjaneya yuddha. Why? Because He has promised to a Rama devotee, so he had to go against for His own Prabhu, Swamy. He did not did any fight, just sat and kept chanting the name of Rama. Poorna Anajaneya Sakthi is here, because installed by our Pujya Sadgurudeva, so His strength and powers have doubled. That kind of Yantra power has been kept. In His presence we are performing this yagnam. To satisfy Anjaneya Swamy we have to pray to Sri Rama. He will be very happy. If you pray Our Sadguru, how I will feel happy and delighted the same way. He knows the power and effect of chanting Rama Nama syllables. We know nothing, what we know is very little and we don’t know the glory. Even there is big book written on the glory of Rama Nama. After telling everything in the end they have told ‘what we told and explained is very less and short. Out of hundred parts only a single part is covered’. That powerful nama mantra before leaving Swamiji has told us to chant Sree Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama. This Taraka mantra Anjaneya Swamy likes very much. Everyone of you should chant it. Also chant Om Namo Hanumate Namah you all witness this ritual.
Those who have participated in homa, let all their wishes come through. And even others do not miss, come and witness this homa. Yesterday as told by Prof.K.V.K.Murthy during Panchanga Sravana, New Year has started on Thursday – Gurus day. On which day new year starts that diety effect and power will be more. So its very auspicious to start on this day, everyone will be blessed with victory in their good wishes and deeds. Today is Friday, Seeta Maha Lakshmi likes very much, so we have started this yaga on this auspicious day.
As last year we have done, this year also without having any dwiteeya vighna - second obstacle; we want to conduct Nagara Sankeertana. This is real Guru Seva. Why means let the keertana, bhajans be spreaded all over the world. Those who do this is a real devotee. Listening to these bhajans and singing them we have limitless happiness. That everyone should experience it. Bhakti has to publicized. As Swamiji told we teach our children everything but not sampradayam - culture. From childhood we have to train and teach them. That bhakti has to be sowed in childhood only, then there will be strong base they will not be misguided or leaded to wrong path. Same way if we do nagara sankeertana, others will watch whats going on here, why they are singing, they will enquire about it. Out of those atleast let 10 persons come, if not 10 atleast 1 come with bhakti. That change should be there. Let good happen to complete Hyderabad and Telugu speaking people. By doing this nagara sankeertana, vibrations-tarangalu will be spreaded. Like in Datta Venkataramana temple when the bill is ringed we can listen to those sounds even at our homes. Even after ringing the bell for sometime about 4-5 seconds still we can listen. How, because of the vibrations. The sound is travelling. Same way mantra chanting or doing nama sankeertana, the bhakti vibrations will be spreaded they will protect the world. This is how good is done to everyone. If not for the world, atleast for your goodness of your family, you do. We do not have time for everything. We have to do prardhana - pray and prayatnam - attempt to do it. Both should be together. Teach your children all the bhajans. For Ugadi day children have very well sung and even performed dance from Sachidananda Kalapeetham. I felt very happy. So all of you participate.
Keep chanting Om Namo Hanumate Namah and participate in the yaga activities. Also chant Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama. While chanting Sri Rama tell the complete name not just Sri Ram. It should be Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama. Without upadesha, we should not chant the mantra. Never mind even if you do not get good benefits but you should not earn bad results. Guru has given the mantra upadesha so that effect will be there. Mantra siddhi will get good results, which is possible only when we are putting any efforts. Take care to chant correctly and properly. That is why this morning Swamiji has spelled correctly Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama. All the 13 syllables should be spelled properly. Then only it will be benefitted. Since its Vijaya Nama Samvatsara, let there be victory. Will be performing Poornahuti, all of you pray in your hearts. Praying Swamy to bestow his full blessings on all you and let all your wishes be fulfilled.
Avadhoota Chintana Sri Gurudeva Datta. Bolo Marakata Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Swami ki Jai. Bolo Seeta Rama Chandra Prabhu ki Jai. Bolo Sadgurunath Maharaj ki Jai.
