Krishna's Gita
KRISHNA’s GITA
(excerpts)
(excerpts)
"Whoever
among devotees dedicates all acts to Me with no other thought, whoever
meditates on Me, serves Me, worships Me, remembers Me; know that I am always
with him, ever providing for him in this world and the next; I bear the burden
of his yoga-kshema. Do you hear Me?" asked Krishna, patting Arjuna again
on the back and imparting courage to his drooping heart.."
This most sacred sentence is as the navel to the Gîtâ body. The navel of Vishnu was the place where Brahmâ took birth; this sloka is the navel or place of nativity for those who thirst for brahma-jñâna. If this sloka is followed in practice, the entire Gîtâ can be understood."
“The
devotee can tie up the Lord with his prema; by eka-bhakti that overpowers his
egoism. When man is full of this type of bhakti, the Lord will Himself bless
him with everything he needs; His grace will fulfill all his wants. Remind
yourself here of the promise made by the Lord in the Gîtâ: yoga-kshemam vahâmyaham,
I carry the burden of his welfare."
“The words
yoga and kshema used by the Lord mean: yoga, acquisition of something
desirable; and kshema, the preservation of what is thus acquired. The
discipline by which you can preserve it is: Ananyâh cintayantah, exclusive
meditation on the Lord. That will cleanse the mind; it will make you a bhakta.
The bhakta is recognized by these things; he talks of the Lord; he sings of the
Lord; he sees only the Lord; he works and spends his leisure with the Lord."
“The Gîtâ ddescribes genuine dhyana as: "Those persons who adore Me
without any other thought and feeling."

Rushing Through Life
Rushing through life causes you to miss the full experience
of the moment. As man travels the road of life, he often tells those around him
of his troubles and his wishes for the future. His mind is so engaged in
trouble and his future that he is not focused on those around him. And, in
turn, those around him are in their minds thinking of their own troubles and
future events and only half listening. In this way one seems to always be
waiting for his life to happen and the present moment slips by without one
fully alive within it.
Let us more and more search for the understanding that the present moment is all we have. Let it be honored as your most precious life’s blood. Be joyous in the moment. Be rightfully focused on where you are in the present as to your thoughts and your actions. Surrender every moment to The Lord and join Him in co-creating a life of Divine Love expressed as God within everyone and everything.
I wish for you all a glowing, glorious life filled with present moments of joy and wonder that life has been freely given to you to know God who is Love expressed in everything in creation. Let you be creatures of habit of being fully alive in the present radiant, glorious moment that is life, Itself !
May God bless each and every one of you,
In His Holy Name,
MAHAVATAR BABAJI

What Do We Have To Offer God
Our planet and all its creatures were
created through love and are sustained by love and will go back to love. May
everyone on Earth experience that joy, happiness
and oneness with God! My mission is to assist people in realizing the divinity
within them. What we all have to offer God is to seek Him; He has everything
else.

Sri Swami Vishwananda - Happy Birthday 13 June 2014
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
SRI SWAMI VISHWANANDA
JUST LOVE
Sri Swami Vishwananda
Happy Birthday 13 June 2013
Happy Birthday 13 June 2013
Love is His Mantra and it fills His Divine Heart.
Opening the Hearts of
everyone to this Divine Love
Is His mission sent from
The Lord, Himself.
Teachings of all spiritual
traditions flow
From His lips freely and
are offered upon
The altar of hearts for
experiencing
Divine Love and Devotion
His Heavenly, beautiful smile and
The beauty of His face
cause one’s heart
To seemingly skip a beat,
at times.
When one kneels in front of
Him, one can feel:
“Truly, as surely as I have
looked upon His face,
I have seen the face of God
!”
When He places His chandam blessed thumb on one’s forehead
And His hand behind one’s
head in Darshan blessing
As one looks into His eyes,
which embody eternity,
One feels Divine Love and
the Heart
Opens to receive what He is
giving — Just Love.
If one surrenders everything to Him, by the
Grace of God, one reaches
liberation through
Many lifetimes on the
spiritual path, which
Bring you to this grand
opportunity.
Don’t waste this chance,
but rather embrace
Him in your heart and fly
Into the dimension of Love’s
freedom
Carried upon the mystical
wings of
His Celestial, Magnificent
Love.

"Babaji" Just for Fun
BABAJI
Songwriters
Davies, Richard / Hodgson, Roger
Begin Video
of Song Below and then read the lyrics as you listen.
All of my
life I felt that you were listening
Watching for ways to help me stay in tune
Oh, Lord of my dreams, although confusion
Keeps trying to deceive,
Oh what is it that makes me believe in you?
Oh I know, I know, I know, I know.
Watching for ways to help me stay in tune
Oh, Lord of my dreams, although confusion
Keeps trying to deceive,
Oh what is it that makes me believe in you?
Oh I know, I know, I know, I know.
Babaji, Oh
won't you come to me?
Won't you help me to face the music?
Bring it out so we can sing it out
Help us to find it before we lose it.
At night when the stars are near
And there's no one to keep you from coming here
And there's no one to shield me before your eyes
Is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know? I tell you.
Won't you help me to face the music?
Bring it out so we can sing it out
Help us to find it before we lose it.
At night when the stars are near
And there's no one to keep you from coming here
And there's no one to shield me before your eyes
Is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know? I tell you.
I can see
it's not too good to me
To be afloat in the sea of glory
Babaji, oh how you comfort me
By showing me it's a different story
Your light in the dark is real
And I know that you know it is how I feel
When I see the reflection that's in your eyes
Is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know?
Oh, Oh, can't you here me? Oh, Oh.
To be afloat in the sea of glory
Babaji, oh how you comfort me
By showing me it's a different story
Your light in the dark is real
And I know that you know it is how I feel
When I see the reflection that's in your eyes
Is it mine, is it mine, is it mine to know?
Oh, Oh, can't you here me? Oh, Oh.
Babaji,
have you a song for me
To tell the world of it's guardian angel
Well, bring it out so we can sing it out
Oh must you always remain a stranger
At night when the stars are near
And I long for delusion to disappear
Then I see the reflection that's in your eyes
Is it time, is it time, is it time
Is it time, is it time, is it time, is it time to know?
To tell the world of it's guardian angel
Well, bring it out so we can sing it out
Oh must you always remain a stranger
At night when the stars are near
And I long for delusion to disappear
Then I see the reflection that's in your eyes
Is it time, is it time, is it time
Is it time, is it time, is it time, is it time to know?
Oh, Oh, I said calling you, "Babaji, Babaji"
I said
calling you, Babaji, Babaji,
Oh, Oh, Sing, Babaj, Babaji.
Oh, Oh, Sing, Babaj, Babaji.
Oh can you
here me, Babaji, Babaji?
I told
you, calling you, Babaji, Babaji,
Calling you Babaji, Oh, Oh, Oh.
Calling you Babaji, Oh, Oh, Oh.
I said,
Babaji, Babaji, Babaji
Sing,
Babaji, Babaji, Babaji; Babaji, Babaji Babaji.

Your Words Came True
Mahavatar Babaji and Sri Swami Vishwananda behind Babaji
Laksman's Photo of Babaji at
His home in Mumbai, India
Divine Swamini Vishwalakshmianandama,
(Was taken aback
when I read he addressed me as “Divine,” but then I remembered—we all are
Divine ! -Swamini Lakshmi)
Laksman from Mumbai, India emailed this interesting email today:
Jai Guru Dev! Your Words Came True
Would like to share
with you a few interesting events which have taken place in the past few days:
1. I have here a bed room Hall apartment. In one of my rooms, I
have a big photo of Mahavatara Babaji, 3 ft by 2 ft. in Kodak Metallic Photo
finish ( have attached the photo ). I have taken much care to see BABAJI looks
so lively and verily, I shared this with you earlier. He is my guardian forever,
and also head of my family, who loves, directs, cares, and protects all of us.
The room is covered on one
side with big Glass-sliding windows. Beyond the windows, in the parapet wall,
my wife keeps some plants in pots. Interestingly, in the last two
weeks, we noticed some unusual visitors – initially we used to see a beautiful
nightingale with a red tail, making a unique noise. In the last week we saw a
nightingale couple as if they had
come to pay their obeisance to Babaji through the glass windows. First,
I thought I was just imagining, (aftermath of reading your article last week).
(Link: http://virtual-babaji-vishwananda.blogspot.com/2014/05/mountain-peak-experience-with-mataji-in.html
) I saw both my wife and daughter were also enjoying the birds without knowing
its subtle significance. I asked my daughter to take a picture with her I-phone, but she could not capture them as they flew away. I have been waiting for the past
4 days to see both of them. Somehow I was not lucky to have them captured.
2. Today when I was in my living room, watching the TV, all of a
sudden my wife pointed her finger towards the sliding-glass windows near my PUJA
altar. We saw a beautiful nightingale trying to enter through the glass
windows. We were just watching it and it flew away. Since I had been working in
my computer in the other room, I went back to check my mobile for any missed
calls. Surprisingly, there were 2 missed calls from my Atma Kriya Teacher, Ratnadevi.
Earlier, I had asked her if it is possible, I would love to speak to SatGuru Sri
Swami Vishwanandanaji. She called me to say Guruji is around (Guruji
is in India and I am in Mumbai, India), she would connect me to Him. Her calls came in at the same time we were
watching the nightingale.
She connected me to GURUJI ! I SPOKE TO GURUJI! I HEARD HIS LOVELY VOICE! I WAS THRILLED WHEN HE CALLED ME, LAKSMAN! He recited OM NAMAO NARAYANA in my right ear!
He said to ask him if I had questions! When Guruji was so close to
me I had nothing to ask. During our talk, I asked Guruji whether he would visit
Mumbai (Guruji is now on the east of India and I am in Mumbai , on
the west coast). Instantly, Swami’s reply came. He would be in Mumbai the day after
and Guruji said He would call me when He is in Mumbai so that I could meet HIM
in Mumbai! He also told me that he will take my number from Ratnadevi !
Incidentally, today I have completed reading the book JUST LOVE !
This has coincided my completing the book and I got the gist of the book
in its real sense: “THE ESSENCE OF EVERYTHING IS JUST LOVE
– THAT MESSAGE I GOT TODAY FROM THE EPITOME OF LOVE [Swami's call].“ I am still in my
dream as I just could not believe the chain of events that have taken place.
Namaste,
