Swamiji's Conveys His Divine Blessings to all on Hanumath Jayanthi May 31st 2016
Hanuman is a great devotee who mentally focused on Lord Sri Rama's name and physically focused on Sri Rama's Mission. Despite His great achievements he is an embodiment of humility. He surrendered everything to Lord Rama and stood in humility with hands folded, and head bowed. One should try to develop this trait and work without expecting any returns, with the mind fixed on the Lord.
Hanuman is intoxicated by his devotion to Rama and is always in a state of ecstasy in chanting Rama's name. He is all humility in the presence of Rama. He was utterly fearless before Ravana. Before the Divine he is humble and before a demon he was a hero. Hanuman knew how to conduct himself in any situation. He is supremely intelligent. He is an ideal for mankind.
Because Hanuman had the Divine in his heart and the Self-confidence, he could have the vision of Rama, wherever he went. When any order was given to him, he never questioned whether he had the strength or the capacity to fulfill the task. He had the firm faith that the very orders of Rama will give him the necessary strength to fulfill those orders. Hanuman showed the strength and necessity of Self-confidence in a clear manner to the world.
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes but in liking what one has to do. With this attitude, Hanuman was the one who always took upon himself, with complete obedience, the orders of his master. He never gave room in his mind for any doubts or any hesitation regarding the orders of Lord Sri Rama.
Hanuman exemplified complete freedom from doubts. He has only two desires. To be dear and near to Rama. He has no use for any object, however valuable, which did not proclaim the name of Rama. He threw away the pearl necklace presented to him by Sita because the pearls did not recite Rama's name. Rama praised Hanuman as the greatest of devotees and embraced him and declared, "Hanuman! No material object is fit enough to be given to you as a present. You will live eternally in the world. You have no attachment to the things of the world. Let you be present wherever My glory is sung ." with this blessing from Lord Rama, Hanuman is the greatest yogi, a Chiranjeevi and Para Brahma Swaroopa. Lord Hanuman was there on this earth during the Rama Avatara, He was present during Sri Krishna Avaatar and He is ever present even today.

Even today wherever the glories of Lord Rama are sung, Hanuman is present there with His head bowed, hands folded and eyes filled with tears of devotion and blessing the people.
All this was possible because of His constant Nama japa(repitition of Name) of Sri Rama. So powerful is Rama Nama Japam.
On the occasion of Hanumath Jayanthi I wish and bless you all to imbibe these qualities in your mind and lives and secure the blessings of such a chiranjeevi and Para Brahma Swaroopa, Sri Hanuman by constant Nama japa of Sri Rama.
Sri Sri Sri Viswayogi Viswamjee Maharaj
Swamiji conveys His Divine Blessings to all on the ocassion of Akshaya Tritiya, May 9th 2016
Swamiji has conveyed His Divine Blessings to all on the ocassion of Akshaya Tritiya, May 9th 2016. The word "Akshaya" means the never diminishing and the day is believed to bring good luck and success. Every moment on this day is very auspicious and initiations made or valuables bought on this day are considered to bring success or good fortune.
It is believed that Goddess Lakshmi manifested Herself on this day, and so it is the day to enlighten the Sri Sakthi (Sri power) in us, worship Goddess Lakshmi and receive her blessings in the form of of all the Astha siddhis ( the eight forms of wealth) and serve the society. It is therefore customary to worship Goddess Lakshmi on this day, if possible by buying some gold, symbolizing Goddess Lakshmi. Any charity done on this day will enable to get the blessings of Guru and God, and bring prosperity to such a person.
Some of the legends associated with observing Akshaya Trithiya are that of Lord Krishna and Kuchela. Kuchela, also known as Sudama, the friend of Sri Krishna, was a poor Brahmin and met Krishna for some financial favor. Sudama, carried handful of poha (beaten rice) with him. On reaching, Dwarka, Sudama was ashamed to give the poha to Krishna. But Krishna noticed the parcel in the hand of Sudama and grabbed it and ate the poha. Sudama was stunned to see, the great Krishna eating his poha. Sudama, the poor Brahmin was so overjoyed with the gesture of Krishna that he forgot to ask for financial help. On reaching his village Sudama could not find his old house. His house was replaced by a palace and his family members were in top condition wearing best clothes. Sudama,soon realized the divine play of Lord Sri Krishna. So, the day Sudama visited Sri Krishna was observed as Akshaya Tritiya. Even a small offering to God or Guru on this day with devotion is enough to earn His grace in full measure.
Another significant mythology is that of the Pandavas receiving the Akshay Patra from Krishna on the Akshaya Tritiya day. In the Mahabharata, when the Pandavas were in exile, Sri Krishna gave them an Akshaya Patra(a bowl) which gave unlimited amount of food. Krishna had given it to Pandavas on Trithiya day. Therefore it is believed that all investments on the day will surely increase in value.
Swamiji has conveyed His divine Blessings to all on this occasion and blessed everyone to attain the grace of Goddess Lakshmi, serve the society and bring peace and prosperity to the world.
