NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: A massive gathering of devotees assembled at the globally revered Jyotirlinga shrine, the Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain on Tuesday on the occasion of Vaishakh Krishna Paksha Panchami.

In the early hours of the morning, the traditional Bhasma Aarti was performed with full ritualistic grandeur. The ceremony began with a sacred Jalabhishek of Lord Mahakal, followed by a special adornment carried out strictly in accordance with scriptural traditions.

As per established custom, the doors of the Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple were opened during Brahma Muhurat, the sacred pre-dawn period considered highly auspicious in Hindu tradition.

The Bhasma Aarti, one of the most distinctive rituals associated with the temple, is conducted by the Mahanirvani Akhada.

After the conclusion of the Bhasma Aarti, the deity was again offered Jalabhishek and worshipped with Panchamrit, a sacred mixture of five elements.

The Bhasma Aarti carries profound religious importance and is distinguished by the use of sacred ash prepared from the burnt wood of trees such as Gohari, Peepal, Palash, Shami, and Bel.

In keeping with longstanding tradition, women are not permitted to witness the Bhasma Aarti directly. Instead, they participate in the Darshan while observing the custom of covering their heads with an odhni or veil, a practice that continues to be strictly followed within the temple premises.

The inaugural function was honored by the inspiring presence of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the Chairman of the Maharishi Group of Educational Institutions.

In his speech inaugurating the event, Brahmachari Girish Ji first welcomed all the students participating in this divine cultural celebration, calling them winners. "You are all winners. You did not come here for competition; you have already faced and won that challenge. That is why we do not call it the Maharishi National Cultural Competition; we named it the Maharishi National Cultural Celebration. Competition is something we face every day, every moment in our lives. We have solutions to face the competition and guidelines for that. You do not need to do anything for any competition; you are already trained in it. Every day, twice a day, morning and evening, you practice Transcendental Meditation, the TM Siddhi Program, and Yogic Flying. That is the key to facing and winning the competition. Maharishi has provided a phrase: competition is for competent people, not for incompetent people. Through our morning and evening practice, diving deep into transcendental consciousness, we train ourselves to be competent and, therefore, do not have to worry about competition."

Brahmachari Ji emphasized pride in their heritage, saying, "We are proud to be bearers of Indian culture because we are advancing the knowledge we received from our Gurudev Brahmanand Saraswati and Param Pujya Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji." He described the cultural festival as a "Cultural Kumbh," where the diverse cultures of the nation converge. He highlighted that the knowledge of Dharma, culture, and Maharishi Ji, which originated years ago, continues to spread globally. The Maharishi Vidya Mandir School Group, with over 6,500 teachers and more than 100,000 students, is India's largest school group, continuously raising the banner of Indian knowledge tradition and culture.

"The expansion of our knowledge, culture, and self-consciousness is a global endeavor. This land of Bharat, where we are born, is revered worldwide. Our Gurus, Maharishis, and Rishis of the Vedic Sanatana Dharma are worshipped globally because we are all children of Mother India," he asserted, adding, "Our goal is to make all of you Global Leaders." He mentioned that Maharishi Ji had instructed him to prepare hundreds of global leaders, a direction he is actively pursuing.

He stated that all three aspects are embodied in this day.

He added, "I am sure students from different parts of the country will perform well; you all are our future generations intentionally showing an ideal way of living.

On the final day, young children from Maharishi Kids Home performed in colorful costumes, showing impressive confidence. Their performances touched the hearts of many in the audience, and some moments even brought tears of joy.

   This celebration began with Guru Pujan and warm welcome of guests followed by Vedic chanting performed by Maharishi Vedic Pundits. The day also included a heartfelt welcome song by the students of Maharishi Kids Home, followed by bhajans and motivational songs.

      During the closing ceremony, Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, Chairman of the Maharishi Vidya Mandir School Group, spoke about the importance of celebrating the children's performances. He highlighted that young children are innocent and learn quickly from what they are taught, which is their true strength. At Maharishi Kids Home, the focus is not just on practical skills and academic knowledge. While many parents want their children to learn English well, it is equally important to teach them values that can improve their lives. Children need these values to develop self-awareness, which helps guide their actions throughout life.

       Girish Ji shared a Vedic saying, “Manasi Ekam, Vachsi Ekam, Karmani Ekam Mahatmanam,” meaning that a great and truthful person thinks, speaks, and acts in harmony. Our goal is to raise children to be those true individuals, not ascetics. We want them to imbibe good Sanskaras and qualities while reducing less desirable traits and ensuring honesty in all their actions. 

    In 1990, Maharishi Ji encouraged us to open Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools across the country. Today, we have over 200 MVM schools in India, and seven years ago, we started Maharishi Kids Home, with plans to grow this number to 200 in very near future.

   Brahmachari Girish Ji also noted that our social culture is changing for the worse, making it important for every parent and family member to help ensure that our educated children grow into cultured citizens, full of divine values. Their lives should be ideal, contributing to a better society. To achieve this, we launched the Maharishi Aadarsh Bharat Abhiyan ten years ago, and it was relaunched on August 25 this year. Our efforts aim to build an ideal India so that when children grow up, they find a supportive environment. We must work together toward this goal, as negative influences have to be removed at all cost. It is crucial to raise children with cultural values, guiding them to practice daily worship, meditation, and yoga, which will help them improve.

On August 25, we launched the Maharishi World Plan, which has attracted participation from 52 countries so far. If 100 countries join by the upcoming Vijayadashami, we will organize a world-level conference, Girish Ji added.

Brahmachari Girish Ji thanked all the parents of the children at Maharishi Kids Home, reminding them how fortunate they are to have chosen Maharishi Sansthan for their children's education. He also praised the teachers for their role in nurturing the children's growth.

Shri V R Khare, Director CPR addressed the gathering, praising the beautiful and impressive performances of the children over the two days. The entire program was rich in cultural values, mentioning that the children of Maharishi Kids Home know the Gayatri Mantra and the Bhojan and Snan Mantras, which is truly remarkable. He reiterated Girish Ji's wish to instill Indian values in all children at school level. This was the fifth national level cultural celebration of Maharishi Kids Home, which started in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic. He commended all parents for encouraging their children to participate and praised venue principal Anjali Singh for her caring approach and excellent management of the program.

At the end of the event, Brahmachari Girish Ji presented prizes to the children for their outstanding performances.

BHOPAL: The two-day Shri Guru Purnima Celebration at Maharishi Institutions culminated on Thursday with traditional ceremonies and a focus on gratitude and achievements. The celebration, organized by the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Sansthan, was guided by Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, head of Maharishi Sansthan.

Today, on the actual day of Shri Guru Purnima, Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji performed the sacred Guru Pujan along with Vedic chanting by Vedic Pandits of Maharishi Organisation. After that all the honoured guests who shared dias with Brahmachari Girish Ji was welcomed with flowers bouquet and traditional tikka amid Vedic chanting.

In his insightful address, Brahmachari Girish Ji emphasized the profound significance of the Vedic Guru tradition, stating, "Today is a special day for the Vedic Guru tradition. Sheding light on the remarkable life of Jagadguru Shankaracharya Swami Brahmanand Saraswati Maharaj, the revered guru of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji, Brahmachari Girish said that born in a small village in Uttar Pradesh, his journey from humble beginnings to becoming the Shankaracharya of Jyotirmath was nothing short of extraordinary.

Brahmachari Girish highlighted that Shankaracharya Brahmanand Saraswati Maharaj was honored with numerous titles, including "Ananta Shri Vibhushit", a distinction previously unheard of for any spiritual leader. During India's struggle for independence, Shankaracharya Brahmanand Saraswati Maharaj played a significant role in uniting people. He organized a colossal Yagya on the banks of the Yamuna River, drawing the participation of over 10,000 Vedic pundits. Such a massive undertaking was an immense challenge for any saint at that time. When questioned about the financial resources required for such a grand event, he reportedly stated that when he needed funds, he didn't invoke Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, like ordinary humans. Instead, he would directly invoke and appeal to Lord Vishnu, and his needs would be met spontaneously. 

Brahmachari Girish further elaborated on how Maharishi Mahesh Yogi dedicated his life to expanding the knowledge received from his guru and spreading spirituality worldwide. Maharishi traveled to over 134 countries, introducing the power of consciousness to the entire world. He frequently emphasized the principle of "Ek Hi Sadhe Sab Sadhe", meaning that by mastering consciousness, all endeavors become successful. He taught that the simplest path to consciousness is through Transcendental Meditation (TM). Inspired by Lord Vishnu, Maharishi developed the Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi programs, emphasizing that consistent practice of TM leads nature itself to effortlessly facilitate all desired outcomes.

Brahmachari Girish concluded by urging individuals to divide their day into three parts: the first eight hours for spiritual pursuits, the next eight hours for material activities, and the remaining time for rest and other commitments. He stressed that if eight hours for spirituality seemed too much, at least one hour for Transcendental Meditation should be dedicated daily. He asserted that those unable to commit even this minimal time are "wasting their lives" and will not achieve true success.

Girish Ji also emphasized the significant role of many individuals, including one's guru, in achieving anything in life. Brahmachari Girish stated that there is no greater virtue than repaying the guru's debt. This doesn't require material offerings but rather complete surrender to the guru. He concluded by saying that such devotion leads to personal well-being and enables individuals to contribute to the welfare of the world.

After his address, Girish Ji presented all the yearly achievements of the Maharishi Sansthan at the lotus feet of Shri Gurudev and Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji.

The celebration also featured addresses from esteemed guests. Prof. Bhuvnesh Sharma, former Vice-Chancellor of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Vedic University, elucidated the significance of the Guru in one's life.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: As Guru Purnima approaches, a special time to thank our teachers, the Maharishi Institutions around the world are getting ready for a big celebration. It's a way to honor the ancient tradition of students learning from their gurus, and to remember the huge impact of their founder, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. 

This year, the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Sansthan will host a two-day festival on July 9 and 10, with celebrations led by Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji. On the main day of Guru Purnima on July 10th, everyone will feel a sense of respect, thanks, and a renewed commitment to the ideas that help so many people live healthier, happier lives.

Guru Purnima is a Hindu festival celebrated on the full moon day of the month of Ashadha. It's a sacred day to show appreciation to spiritual and academic teachers. It’s a day for us to look within and truly thank our teachers for the invaluable wisdom and guidance they’ve given us. For the Maharishi family worldwide, this day is extra special. It's a time to thank Guru Dev, Swami Brahmananda Saraswati, who was Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's respected teacher, and Maharishi himself. Maharishi brought ancient Indian wisdom, especially the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique, to people everywhere.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's teachings were based on ancient Indian wisdom. He focused on using spiritual knowledge in practical ways to make individual lives and the world better. He saw Guru Purnima as a day "full of pure knowledge," a day that "opens up all the possibilities of knowledge and makes the teacher-student relationship complete." His big goal was to create a "Heaven on Earth" by helping everyone reach their full human potential. Through the Transcendental Meditation technique, he gave people a simple, easy, and very effective way to find their inner peace, creativity, and intelligence.

The Maharishi Institutions, like the Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools and various Maharishi universities, are living examples of his vision. Their goal isn't just about academics; it’s about transforming lives. They aim to create global peace, bring enlightenment to every person, and make every nation strong and secure. They do this by using Consciousness-Based Education. This combines regular school subjects with the practice of Transcendental Meditation and its advanced programs, helping to develop the whole person – their mind, body, and relationships.

This Guru Purnima, the celebrations at Maharishi Institutions will definitely show this complete approach. From traditional ceremonies to show respect for the guru, to presentations of what they've achieved over the year, and talks from important guests about the meaning of the Guru, the events will highlight how deeply Maharishi’s teachings have impacted lives. 

In today's complex world, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's timeless message – that "Life is Bliss, Life is Perfect" – is more important than ever. The Maharishi Institutions, by teaching Consciousness-Based Education and sharing the Transcendental Meditation technique, continue to be guiding lights. They help people find more fulfillment, peace, and harmony in their lives.  As we honor our teachers this Guru Purnima, let us pledge not only to remember their lessons but also to live by their wisdom for the greater good of all.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: A six-day training program on "Maharishi Consciousness-Based Education" started today at the Maharishi Center for Educational Excellence (MCEE) in Bhopal.

Our collective intention today is to accomplish all the remaining resolutions of Maharishi Ji within our lifetime, focusing on the welfare of all humanity, peace, prosperity, a fulfilling life, and a stress-free existence."

He emphasized, "Together, we must spread the message of Transcendental Meditation, Siddhi programs, and the protective recitation of all deities to every program in society during the Maharishi Spiritual Awakening campaign. Only by doing so can we enhance Sattva (goodness) in the collective consciousness and eradicate negativity. Under all circumstances, we must guide society towards being spiritually inclined and knowledgeable. Maharishi Ji resolved that our mission will remain unfulfilled until the entire society comes under the 'knowledge flag'—the flag of the Vedas. We must all unite to achieve this."

Brahmachari Girish Ji further stated, "In today’s world, individuals often prioritize material resolutions, but at the Maharishi Institute, we must direct our focus towards spiritual resolutions. All resolutions will be fulfilled through spiritual practice, which will be lasting and enduring. Consequently, we do not need desire or supplication."

On this occasion, Professor Bhuvnesh Sharma, the former Vice-Chancellor of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Vedic University, highlighted that any action taken on this day is imperishable, yielding Akshaya Phal, which signifies eternity. Therefore, every resolution made today will bear fruit. We have established the Purusha and Mahila Mandals specifically to fulfill Maharishi Ji's resolutions. Everyone should move forward with firm intentions.

Maa Mahagauri
The forms of Goddess Durga, known as Navadurga, are celebrated and worshipped during the festival of Navaratri, with each form representing a unique aspect of divine power and cosmic energy. The eighth form, Mahagauri, is one of the most revered and significant incarnations of the goddess. 

Unlike her fiercer forms, Mahagauri represents the embodiment of purity, serenity, and spiritual wisdom. She is the goddess who symbolizes tranquility, intelligence, and the inner peace that follows the destruction of evil and ignorance. 

Maa Mahagauri: Birth Story
Mahagauri is believed to have been created from the cosmic energy of the gods, with the goal of bringing peace, purity, and wisdom to the world. Her origin story is closely tied to the myth of Goddess Durga and her battles against the demons who disturbed the balance of the universe. According to one popular legend, after Goddess Durga defeated the demon Mahishasura and other powerful foes, she sought a period of rest and recuperation. During this time, she assumed the form of Mahagauri, a gentle and serene incarnation that represented purity and peace. The goddess, having eliminated the forces of chaos, was now portrayed as an embodiment of spiritual calm and restoration.

Who is Mahagauri?
The iconography of Mahagauri is one of grace and purity. She is typically depicted in a fair complexion, often described as radiant like the moon. Her fair skin symbolizes purity and spiritual cleanliness, reflecting her divine essence free from the taints of evil or impurities. This glowing complexion is often associated with her ability to purify the minds and hearts of her devotees, guiding them toward a life of inner peace and harmony. Mahagauri is often shown riding a bull, a symbol of strength, patience, and steadfastness. Unlike the lion or tiger that symbolize fierceness and power, the bull represents stability, groundedness, and the gentle qualities of nurturing. It is said that the bull’s calm demeanor mirrors Mahagauri’s tranquil and serene nature, highlighting the contrast between the fierce warrior aspect of Durga and the more peaceful, compassionate form she assumes in Mahagauri.

Mahagauri, as the embodiment of purity, signifies peace, intelligence, and the cleansing of the mind and soul. She is revered as a goddess who brings about inner transformation and spiritual enlightenment. Unlike her more fearsome forms like Kalaratri or Katyayani, Mahagauri represents a softer aspect of Durga's power, one that works gently yet effectively to remove the negative influences that prevent the attainment of peace and wisdom.
 

NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Goddess Kaalratri is prayed to on the seventh day of Navratri, which is April 4, 2025, during Chaitra Navratri. She is said to represent the powers of darkness and time. With her dark skin and loose hair, she sits upon a black donkey, representing her as the destroyer of ignorance and remover of inauspiciousness. She holds a sword and a noose in her hand. Though she has a menacing look, she showers her believers with protection, strength, and wisdom.

Worshiping Maa Kaalratri on this day is believed to give the devotee strength, spiritual enlightenment, and freedom from problems. Her three eyes glow like lightning and are full of strong energy, and fire appears to gush out of her nostrils when she exhales.

The planet Saturn is supposed to be under the control of Goddess Kaalratri. She is referred to as Goddess Mahayogishwari and Goddess Mahayogini.

When worshipping this powerful goddess, it is important to consider factors such as color, offerings (bhog), mantras, vrat katha (the story), auspicious timing (shubh muhurat), and the rituals (puja vidhi) that should be performed.

Myntra for Goddess Kaalratri is Om Devi Kalratriai Namah.

The seventh day's color of Navratri is Grey, representing courage, balance, and impartiality. Worshippers can offer Jaggery (Gur) to Maa Kaalratri as bhog on the seventh day of Chaitra Navratri.

PUJA VIDHI (RITUALS TO WORSHIP MAA KAALRATRI)

* Wake up early and bathe before sunrise
* Clean the puja area and keep an idol or picture of Goddess Kaalratri
* Offer flowers, incense, and a diya (oil lamp) to the goddess
* Chant the mantra
* Offer jaggery or sweets prepared from it as bhog
* Do aarti and meditate on her divine power
* End the puja by asking her for blessings for strength and protection.

On this auspicious occasion, the head of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Sansthan, Brahmachari Girish Ji shared a message and extended his good wishes to all.  Brahmachari Girish Ji said, "Holi is not just about colors; it's about consciousness. It celebrates unity, diversity, and the power of collective consciousness."

Brahmachari Girish Ji eloquently expressed, "Holi is not merely about colors; it symbolizes the essence of consciousness. This festival celebrates our unity, the richness of our diversity, and the profound power of collective consciousness."

A group of 21 Vedic Pandits performed the Shri Maha Rudrabhishek under the guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the head of the Maharishi Institute. 

During the ceremony, the Shri Maha Rudrabhishek was conducted with Vedic rites and chanting. On this significant day, worshippers honored Lord Shiva and Mother Parvati with heartfelt prayers and rituals. Brahmachari Girish Ji spoke to a group of Vedic scholars and said, "Today is Mahashivratri, a day to receive blessings from Lord Shiva. All Shiva devotees should go to nearby temples to perform Abhishekam for Lord Shiva. If there is no temple nearby, invite a qualified Vedic ritualist to perform Abhishekam at your home. If that's not possible, do Abhishekam while meditating. In meditation, Lord Shiva connects with our consciousness and represents kindness and mercy. Today is a day for devotion and worship of Lord Shiva. Take part and enrich your life."

Many officials, employees, and local devotees attended the event. The atmosphere at the Maharishi Utsav Bhawan felt spiritual during the ceremony. After the worship and Shri Maha Rudrabhishek, the attendees received Prasad.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: In a heartfelt expression of gratitude, Brahmachari Girish Ji, the head of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Institute, thanked everyone for making the Maha Kumbh a memorable and lifelong experience. Interacting with some organizers, Brahmachari Ji said, "I have participated in 7 Kumbhs in Prayag, Ujjain, and Haridwar so far, but this Maha Kumbh will always remain alive in my memory and heart for the rest of my life. I express my sincere gratitude to the Central Government, the Uttar Pradesh Government, all other state governments, and their officials for making the necessary arrangements for the participation of devotees in this Maha Kumbh. The arrival of more than 50 crore devotees in Prayagraj is proof that India is one from North to South and East to West. Every Sanatani wants to come to this Kumbh from every direction. All distinctions of caste, creed, gender, religion, sect, duality or non-duality, uniformity, faith, belief, etc. have dissolved in the Sangam in the last one and a half months. This is a direct demonstration and proof of India's unity in diversity. I am confident that this will continue in the future as well." 

On this occasion, Brahmachari Ji also thanked all the members of the Maharishi organization who helped in organizing the journey of thousands of pilgrims in the Kumbh. He thanked the Vedic pundits for organizing the historic 31 Atirudrabhishek Mahayagya. He thanked all the principals, teachers, and students of Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools who presented bhajans every evening. On this occasion, he also thanked all the four Katha Vyas for the continuous flow of nectar through Srimad Bhagwat, Shri Shiv Mahapuran, Shri Ram Katha, and Srimad Devi Mahapuran Katha. Brahmachari Ji said, "All the future generations of India will learn a lot from this Maha Kumbh and will definitely celebrate such festivals with more care and ease. My best wishes to all the upcoming generations of Sanatan India."
 

PRAYAGRAJ (Maha Media): A grand Shrimad Devi Bhagwat Katha is being organized at the Maharishi Ashram in Prayagraj during the Mahakumbh. The event is taking place under the divine blessings of Maharishi Ji and the guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji.

The renowned Katha Vyaas, Acharya Dr. Nilimp Tripathi, inaugurated the katha today. He emphasized the immense spiritual significance of Mahakumbh, stating that any act of charity or virtue during this period yields multiplied blessings. He also highlighted the importance of an efficient administration for the successful conduct of such a massive event.

Acharya Tripathi further explained that excessive accumulation of material possessions goes against the principles of nature as taught by Goddess Bhagwati. He stressed that detachment from material things is essential to receive the love of the mother of the universe. He cited an example of how Maharishi Mahesh Yogi once refused help from a wealthy businessman for the food of the ascetics, as the source of the funds was not considered righteous.

The Katha Vyaas also narrated instances of devotees receiving direct visions of Goddess Bhagwati by circumambulating the Narmada River, emphasizing the significance of sincere devotion. He urged the devotees to follow the path shown in the Devi Bhagwat and not to be deluded by the illusions of the world.

He further added that Goddess Bhagwati often appears to devotees in various forms like Goddess Parvati, Goddess Saraswati, or Mother Narmada, but only a few can recognize her. He encouraged everyone to look beyond the external forms and perceive the inner essence of the divine mother.

Acharya Tripathi also acknowledged the grace of Maa Annapurna in the preparation of food for over 2,000 people at the ashram's kitchen. He cautioned against wasting or disrespecting food. The Shrimad Devi Bhagwat Katha is being held daily from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM at the Maharishi Ashram during the Mahakumbh.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Life is not a struggle or full of sorrow; it is bliss. Transcendental Meditation can help us unlock new possibilities. Brahmachari Girish Ji, a devoted disciple of Maharishi, shared these thoughts at a press conference today during Maha Kumbh. He explained that Maharishi Ji taught a simple, natural, and scientific method of Transcendental Meditation, which is a practical application of Vedic knowledge.

Practicing Transcendental Meditation for just twenty minutes each morning and evening can bring many physical and mental benefits. These benefits include peace of mind, reduced stress, better concentration, and a sense of invincibility. Brahmachari Ji noted that the idea of war begins in the minds of a few people, and a stressed mind can reinforce these thoughts, putting societies and nations at risk of conflict.

He also said that the issues we see around the world today can be addressed using Maharishi Ji's techniques, which can purify our consciousness and reduce negativity.

Brahmachari Girish Ji recounted his experience teaching Transcendental Meditation to soldiers from two countries on the verge of war. After learning of the practice, both armies returned to their bases without fighting.

Now, we should all commit to increasing the number of people practicing Transcendental Meditation and its advanced programs. Let’s help every citizen of India and the world—especially the youth—be stress-free, prosperous, and strong, keeping them away from the horrors of war. This commitment will honor Maharishi Ji on this important day of Maha Kumbh.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: The Maharishi Vedic Pandits of the Maharishi Organization continued their daily recitation of the 1,331 verses of the Rudrashtadhyayi and performed a havan at the Maharishi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, on Wednesday.

The ongoing Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah, led by renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Dr. Nilimp Tripathi Ji, blissfully soaked the devotees with the divine shower of spiritual pearls of Devi Bhagwat. Before starting today’s Katha, Nilimp Tripathi Ji emphasizes the significance of the Prayagraj region. He describes Prayag as a unique pilgrimage destination, with a rich narrative detailed in our scriptures. Goswami Tulsidas Ji refers to Prayag as the "king of pilgrimages," highlighting its unmatched glory. It is considered the foremost among all sacred places, where the holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati converge. Bathing here is believed to grant salvation.

Just as the Sun is among the planets and the Moon among the stars, Prayag stands out as the best pilgrimage site. Scriptures state that merely seeing the 'Akshayavat' tree in Prayagraj can absolve one of significant sins, including the grave sin of Brahmahatya. The Akshayavat, known as Adi Vat, is indestructible, and Lord Vishnu is said to rest on its leaves. Anyone who leaves their body in Prayagraj attains a place in Vaikuntha. The merits of those who bathe here during the month of Magh month cannot be quantified. We are fortunate that today, on the day of Magh Purnima, when all gods and goddesses and various pilgrimages converge, we have the opportunity to take a dip here, which will lead to the salvation of ourselves, our families, and our ancestors.

In today's story, Nilimp Tripathi Ji narrates the tale of Mohini, who, after dying by touching the waters of the Ganga, is reborn as Hemangi, the wife of King Veer Verma of Dravid. While looking at a map book at her friend Kala's house, Hemangi recalls her previous life and discusses with her husband, Veer Verma, the idea of visiting Maa Ganga in Prayag. Pleased by the couple's intention to travel to Prayag and perform charity and rituals, God grants them a place in his Satyalok. Tripathi Ji shared the glory of Prayagraj through many such examples and stories.

In the evening, students from Maharishi Vidya Mandir Naini held a cultural program at Maharishi Ashram. The program started with a welcome song, followed by a Ganesh Vandana. Students then performed a beautiful dance honoring the Guru and presented a Ram Bhajan. Next, a powerful poem was shared, depicting a conversation between Kali and Kal. The highlight of the evening was an impressive Kathak dance, followed by a captivating Radha dance that amazed the audience. The program ended with a series of Bhajan presentations. Many respected guests attended the event and praised the organization for its efforts. 

All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: The Maharishi Vedic Pandits of the Maharishi Organization continued their daily recitation of the 1,331 verses of the Rudrashtadhyayi and performed a havan at the Maharishi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, on Saturday.

The ongoing Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah, led by renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Dr. Nilimp Tripathi Ji, captivated a large audience today with its rich narratives and profound insights into the divine. Tripathi Ji began today's story by sharing that those whom ‘Maa Bhagwati’ regards with favor are truly blessed. Maa Bhagwati, the embodiment of Shakti, is known for alleviating sorrows. The teachings of Shrimad Devi Bhagwat hold great significance, as their ultimate goal is to benefit everyone. Maa Bhagwati underscores the idea that motherhood is the only eternal truth in this world. Those who adhere to her teachings find both worldly happiness and spiritual salvation.

Tripathi Ji commenced the session by highlighting the story of Raja Parikshit. After the Mahabharata war, Raja Parikshit learned that he had only seven days left to live. Determined to make the most of his remaining time, he resolved to spend those days acquiring knowledge and deepening his devotion to God. He approached various Gurus and called upon Shukadev Ji. Parikshit asked Shukadev Ji, "What is the most powerful and effective way to attain the supreme destination in such a short span of time?"

In response, Shukadev Ji revealed a deeper truth: every living being has only seven days to die. Parikshit’s seven days of life were a metaphor for the finite nature of human existence, reminding everyone that life is short and that the most important task is to prepare the heart and mind for the divine. Through devotion, meditation, and surrender, anyone can rise above the distractions of the world and achieve a state of unity with the divine.

The Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapurana Kathamrit Pravah will continue till February 12. All the events and programmes are broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.

Acharya Tripathi Ji also shared numerous examples from ancient history to illustrate the significance and relevance of spirituality in contemporary society.

In his discourse, Acharya Nilimp Ji stated, "Whatever thoughts arise within us are inspired by Maa Bhagwati. And when these thoughts are expressed through our words, they achieve completeness. The purer the thought, the more potent its effect. How can someone who speaks impurely create a pure effect? Therefore, a ritual of purification is necessary. When a seeker undertakes spiritual practice (Sadhana), they must engage in rigorous penance (Tapasya). Without penance, one cannot attain God. Whatever power and skill an individual possesses is the result of their effort, penance, and devotion. If true devotion exists, then in any circumstance, you will persevere in your endeavors, and one day, you will certainly receive the blessings of supreme divine grace."

The Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapurana Kathamrit Pravah will continue till February 12. All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: The Maharishi Vedic Pandits of the Maharishi Organization continued their daily recitation of the 1,331 verses of the Rudrashtadhyayi and performed a havan at the Maharishi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, on Saturday.

The ongoing Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah, led by renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Dr. Nilimp Tripathi Ji, captivated a large audience today with its rich narratives and profound insights into the divine. Tripathi Ji commenced the session by highlighting the immense fortune of those who have embraced Dharma and are present at Teerth Prayag during the Maha Kumbh. He emphasized that their presence is a testament to the grace of Devi Bhagwat, suggesting that without divine will, such an assembly would be impossible. Continuing his discourse, Tripathi Ji elaborated on the nine forms of the Goddess, as described in sacred scriptures.  He enumerated these forms, each representing a unique aspect of the divine feminine: Shailputri, Brahmacharini, Chandraghanta, Kushmanda, Skandamata, Katyayani, Kalratri, Mahagauri, and Siddhidatri.

Recalling the previous day's narrative, Tripathi Ji revisited the poignant tale of Devi Sati.  He then transitioned to the birth of Sati in her next incarnation as Parvati. He described her divine marriage to Lord Shiva.  A pivotal part of today's Katha centered around the legend of Amarnath.  Tripathi Ji narrated how Parvati, deeply content in her union with Shiva, expressed her longing to understand the mystery of his immortality.  She questioned why she was bound to the cycle of birth and death, while Shiva remained untouched by time.  Parvati implored Shiva to reveal the secret of his eternal existence.

Tripathi Ji further explained that Lord Shiva agreed to reveal the secrets of immortality. They traveled to the Amarnath cave, where Lord Shiva began narrating the Amar Katha. However, Parvati fell asleep during the narration. Unbeknownst to Shiva, two pigeons perched nearby were attentively absorbing every word, punctuating the narrative with their cooing.  Mistakenly believing Parvati was listening, Shiva continued the discourse. Upon concluding the Katha, Shiva discovered Parvati asleep.  He then realized that the two pigeons had overheard the sacred narrative.  Consumed by divine anger, Shiva prepared to punish the birds. However, the pigeons, filled with remorse, pleaded for mercy. They argued that their death would invalidate the very tale of immortality they had just heard.  They beseeched Shiva for guidance and protection. Shiva declared that the two pigeons would forever reside in the cave, becoming symbols of Shiva and Shakti (divine masculine and feminine energies).  They were blessed with immortality, thus validating the Amar Katha.

The Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapurana Kathamrit Pravah will continue till February 12. All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: A seminar on the topic "Immediate Need of Mutual Coordination of Dharma Peeths for Securing Sanatan Dharma," was organized at the Maharishi Ashram, Sangamtat, Arail Prayagraj on Thursday. Presiding over the seminar, Anant Shri Vibhushit Jyotishpithadhishwar Vasudevanand Saraswati, Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj, Badrikashram, Himalaya, said "There is no one before Sanatan Brahma. The Banyan tree of Sanatan Dharma is infinite. Whatever is there is all after it, all is propounded by Sanatan Dharma itself. There can be differences in opinion and work, but Sanatan Dharma is above that too. All sects and Sampradayas are within Sanatan and this is the Sanatan tradition. There have been many attacks on our Sanatan Dharma, but our religion is continuously Sanatan Dharma. The time of origin of Sanatan Dharma is infinite. We all agree with the proposal of Brahmachari Girish Ji and will discuss it further with everyone."

Speaking at the event, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Institute chief Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji said that on the occasion of Mahakumbh, from the continuous recitation of 1331 in Tirthraj to Shri Ram Katha, Shri Shiv Puran Katha, Shrimad Bhagwat Katha and from tomorrow Shrimad Devi Bhagwat Katha will be organized. Along with this, various cultural programs are being organized continuously at night time in Maharishi Ashram. Brahmachari Ji said that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji used to say that collective consciousness can be made Sattoguni and resolve Siddhi can be achieved. There is no end to the power of Sanatan, everything is its part. Today it is being seen that our values are being attacked. We have to put a lot of emphasis on putting our point across. We have to find out where the weakness has come from in this. The influence of Sanatan Dharma is there, but there is a decrease in strength.

Brahmachari Ji asked, can we socially boycott those who criticize Sanatan Dharma? Sanatan Dharma needs to raise an organized voice today because there is a lack of coordination in our organizations. If people make irrelevant remarks against a Hindu saint, it has to be stopped. We believe that there can be differences of opinion among Sanatanis, but there should be no differences of opinion, this is the immediate need. Efforts are needed to make this era known as the Sanatan era.

While describing the need for coordination among all on this occasion, Brahmachari Girish Ji suggested that all the sects and monasteries of Sanatan Dharma should form a top body and organize a meeting in a month or two and make their decisions public so that all the followers of Sanatan Dharma can follow them uniformly.

Speaking at the conference, Nirvan Akhara's Peethadhishwar Acharya Mahamandaleshwar Vishokanand Bharti Ji said that "Until you are in many, then you are one. While studying the difference, you have to be established in the non-difference. There is an immediate need for coordination to remove temptation and opportunism, which Brahmachari Girish Ji has done a very important thing by raising it in front of everyone, for this, Shankaracharya Maharaj will have to come forward and guide all of us. For this, all our five sects will have to work together, this is our message.

Putting his point forward, Arpit Das Ji Maharaj said "The most important thing is that the youth of Sanatan Dharma are getting lost from their direction. Today's youth are going towards reel leaving the real, so there is a need to show direction to the youth immediately.

Speaking on this occasion, Swami Jitendranand Saraswati Ji Maharaj said "Brahmachari Girish Ji has paved the way for the solution of the problem for the unity in Sanatan Dharma, this is not a topic of discussion, it needs to be seriously considered so that the conspiracy against Sanatan Dharma can be exposed. He said that the saints of North and South should meet and immediately consider this direction. I agree with Brahmachari Girish Ji and there is a need for coordination, we all should think about this.

Speaking on this occasion, Ram Ratan Maharaj Phalahari Baba said "Brahmachari Girish Ji has put his point in front of all of us with very good feelings. Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj will have to find a way through Vedas, scriptures, and Guru Parampara, which we all are ready to accept. On this occasion, he also said that for the expansion of Sanatan education in India, the expansion of Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools is very important and it is the need of the hour. If Sanskar will guide us, then Sanatan Dharma will continue to strengthen.

Today's program started with Shri Guru Parampara Pujan as per the tradition of Maharishi Sansthan, after which all the honorable guests present were welcomed by offering flowers, shawls, srifal and mementos.

At the end of the program, Professor Acharya Nilimp Tripathi thanked all the dignitaries present.

All the events and programs are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Under the divine blessings of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji and the esteemed leadership of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the Maharishi Organization convened a grand conference at the Maharishi Ashram, Sangamtat, Arail Prayagraj on Thursday. The conference, titled "Immediate Need of Mutual Coordination of Dharma Peeths for Securing Sanatan Dharma," brought together a distinguished gathering of religious leaders, scholars, and practitioners to address the preservation and advancement of Sanatan Dharma.

The event commenced with a traditional Guru Pujan ceremony, followed by the recitation of the Shanti Path by Maharishi Vedic Pandits. Jagatguru Sankaracharya Jyotispethadeshwar Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj graced the occasion with his presence, further elevating the spiritual significance of the gathering.  Other prominent spiritual figures in attendance included Maha Mandleshwar Swami Vishokanand Ji, Maharishi Arvind Das Ji Maharaj, and Ramratan Das Ji Maharaj, among others.  These esteemed leaders were formally welcomed to the conference.

Addressing the gathering of Saints, Brahmachari Girish Ji said that it is the good fortune of all of us to be staying here in this Prayagraj Maha Kumbh for one and a half months and receiving spiritual benefits. He highlighted the ongoing spiritual activities at the Maharishi Sansthan within the Ashram, including the daily performance of 1331 Rudrashtadhyayi recitations, afternoon Kathamrit Pravah, and evening cultural programs presented by students of Maharishi Vidya Mandir.

Brahmachari Girish Ji further said that today's conference topic is "Immediate Need of Mutual Coordination of Dharma Peeths for Securing Sanatan Dharma," is a matter whose seriousness is understood and agreed upon by the entire saint community. But even then, for some reason, this work is not being accomplished. Maharishi Ji used to say that if any work is to be done, the collective consciousness should be so sattvic (pure) that the resolve is fulfilled. Whatever is resolved should be accomplished. So first of all, we have to make the collective consciousness of the entire country sattvic, pure. Yoga and Yagya (fire ritual) are the two main elements through which this is possible.

Brahmachari Girish emphasized the eternal power of Sanatan Dharma, asserting its supremacy over other faiths, which he considers as its offshoots. He expressed concern over the perceived decline in values within Sanatan Dharma, citing instances of opposition and disrespect that often go unchallenged.  Girish stressed the need for a more assertive approach in defending the faith, advocating for the collective boycott of individuals and communities that oppose or disrespect Sanatan Dharma. He attributed the current challenges to a lack of coordination among religious institutions and expressed hope that the conference would bridge differences, foster unity, and pave the way for the continued growth and influence of Sanatan Dharma.

On this occasion, Shankaracharya Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj and other present saints also spoke on the topic of today's conference.

Yesterday, on Punya Tithi of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji, Maa Ganga Pujan and Deepdan of 1008 ghee lamps were performed at Someshwar Ghat in Arail. During this, the Vedic Pandits of Maharishi Sansthan recited the Vedic Shanti Path. 

All the events and programs are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.

Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj continued today's story from where he left yesterday, Bharat met Shri Ram in the forest of Chitrakoot and took his charanpaduka with him as he returned to Awadh, feeling heavy-hearted. However, he found solace in the fact that he had Shri Ram's paduka as a blessing. Later in the Ram Katha, Krishnadas ji narrates how Shri Ram, accompanied by Mata Sita and Lakshman, traveled to Panchavati, passing through many places, meeting numerous people along the way, and helping them.

The Katha Vyas Krishnadas Ji Maharaj recounted that Lord Ram, along with Sita and Lakshman, was living in a hut in Panchavati. One day, Ravana's sister Surpanakha came across the princes and was immediately captivated by their charm. Despite Lakshmana's warnings, Surpanakha persisted in her advances. In a fit of anger, Lakshmana cut off her nose. Surpanakha, humiliated and enraged, fled to her brother Ravana, the king of Lanka. Upon hearing her tale, Ravana was consumed by fury and devised a plan to avenge his sister's insult. He cunningly kidnapped Sita.

Krishnadas Ji Maharaj further said that Rama and Lakshmana were devastated to find Sita missing from their hut. They embarked on a frantic search for her, traversing the dense forests. During their quest, they encountered Jatayu, the injured king of vultures, who had witnessed Sita's abduction. Jatayu informed Rama about Ravana's misdeed before succumbing to his injuries. Continuing their search, Rama and Lakshmana met Hanuman. Hanuman pledged his allegiance to Rama and vowed to help him find Sita. With his extraordinary strength and devotion, Hanuman crossed the vast ocean and reached Lanka. In Lanka, Hanuman finally found Sita, imprisoned in Ravana's Ashok Vatika. After setting Lanka ablaze as a warning to Ravana, Hanuman returned to Rama, bearing the joyous news of finding Sita. He narrated the entire sequence of events, bringing relief and renewed determination to Rama's heart.

Another dance highlighted the colors of the Holi festival with "Holi Khele Masaane Main," enchanting the crowd. The evening concluded with a wonderful performance of Krishna playing Holi with the Gopies.

He encouraged the students to improve their skills through regular practice, just as they do with their studies, so that they can please God and perform even better next year.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Under the divine guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the daily recitation of the 1331 Rudrashtadhyayi and havan has been taking place. On Monday, Vedic Pandits gathered at the Maharshi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, to take part in this sacred ritual and seek blessings from the divine Rudra.

In addition to the recitation and Havan, renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj, began the sixth day of Shri Ram Kathamrita Pravah with melodious 'Ram Kirtan.' The beautiful singing and the strong chanting of Mantras filled the auditorium with devotion. 

Today's story in Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah was focusing on the auspicious marriage of Shri Ram and Sita. The Katha Vyas Krishnadas Ji Maharaj recounted that Lord Shiva's bow was kept in King Janak's court. One day, while cleaning the house, Sita picked up the bow and moved it to another spot. King Janak was amazed because no one could lift the bow. He promised that Sita would marry whoever could string it. The king then set a date for the Swayamvar and invited all the kings and princes to the marriage.

At the Swayamvar, many tried to lift the bow, but none could do it. With his Guru's permission, Shri Ram lifted the bow and tried to string it, but it broke. King Janak's messenger then informed King Dasharath, who traveled to Janakpur with Bharat, Shatrughna, and Gurudev Vashishtha. In Janakpur, Bharat married Mandavi, Laxman married Urmila, and Shatrughna married Shrutikirtika. Finally, Sita and Ram got married with great celebration. As soon as Mother Sita put a garland on Lord Ram, the gods started showering flowers on them. 

Acharya Krishnadas Ji Maharaj shared the story of Shri Ram's exile after his marriage. King Dasharath announced Yuvraj Ram as his successor, and Ayodhya eagerly awaited his coronation. However, Mother Kaikeyi requested that Shri Ram be sent into exile and that Bharat be crowned instead. 

King Dasharath granted her wishes, leading to Shri Ram’s 14 years of exile. He accepted this fate without question, and both Mother Sita and his brother Laxman chose to accompany him. Despite Ayodhya's readiness to follow, Shri Ram honored his father's word and set off into the forest to fulfill his promise. The devotees were enchanted by the story of Lord Ram. On this occasion, prasad was distributed. The Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah will continue until February 4.

PRAYAGRAJ (Maha Media): Spiritual leader Sri Sri 1008 Ravi Shankar, founder of the Art of Living Foundation, recently visited the Maharishi Ashram and Maharishi Smarak at Sangamtat Prayagraj. He was welcomed by Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish and Vedic pundits with shawls, garlands, and sweets.

Brahmachari Girish presented Sri Sri with his book, "Brahmachari Girish under the Divine Umbrella of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi," and the Maharishi Organization's annual magazine, "Gyan 2025." Sri Sri reciprocated the gesture by honoring Brahmachari Girish with a shawl and garland.

Sri Sri performed Guru Parampara Pujan at the Maharishi Smarak, where Brahmachari Girish provided details about the memorial. During his address, Sri Sri spoke of his long association with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, praising his work in bringing Indian Vedic knowledge and Transcendental Meditation to the world. He also expressed his admiration for the continuation of Maharishi's work by Brahmachari Girish. Sri Sri conveyed his pleasure at visiting the Maharishi Smarak.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Under the divine guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, Vedic Pandits performed a total of 1,331 Paaths and Havans of the Rudrashtadhyayi during the Maha Kumbh 2025 at Teerth Raj Prayagraj on Thursday. To promote world welfare and peace, various programs have been organized at the Maharishi Ashram located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj.

Alongside this event, the Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah program commenced with some melodious recitations of shloka creating a serene atmosphere. The renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj initiated the discourse with a heartfelt tribute to Lord Ram. Maharaj Ji said that Lord Ram is the supreme entity that resides in every atom of this Universe. Lord Ram is the door to absolute salvation and by attaining whom all sins are resolved.  

Krishnadas Ji Maharaj opened today's story with the assertion that no one embodies kindness quite like Shri Ram. He referred to a poignant scene from the epic Ramayana, as portrayed by Goswami Tulsidas, where Ram was traveling with the sage Rishi Vishwamitra. During their journey, they encountered Tadka, a formidable demoness who posed a threat to their mission. In a moment of decisive courage, Lord Ram shot Tadka with a single arrow, not only defeating her but also liberating her from the curse placed upon her by Rishi Agastya. This act of compassion illustrates how Lord Ram granted not just freedom but also salvation, showcasing his divine mercy.

Lord Ram holds his devotees in high regard. For example, the monkeys would often sit at the top of the trees while Ram would sit below. Occasionally, the excrement from the monkeys would fall on him, but he did not mind at all. To Lord Ram, once he has made room for someone in his heart, he does not dwell on their flaws. It is human nature to notice faults and mistakes, but Shri Ram welcomed all the monkeys as friends without judgment.

In another enlightening episode, Krishnadas Ji Maharaj recounted how, despite the initial refusal from Sugreev, the monkey king, Lord Ram extended his acceptance to Vibhishan, Ravana's brother. Sugreev expressed skepticism about Vibhishan’s loyalty, but Lord Ram countered his concerns. He stated, "Anyone who approaches me in friendship cannot be forsaken." Recognizing that everyone has their faults, Ram affirmed that it is the mark of a virtuous person to offer shelter and compassion to those who may have erred. Thus, he resolved to embrace Vibhishan, underscoring the importance of mercy and the moral obligation to support those seeking refuge. This act epitomizes Lord Ram’s unwavering commitment to righteousness and friendship, showcasing the ideals he lives by.

In the evening, a delightful cultural program was held by Maharishi Vidya Mandir, Hardoi, at Maharishi Ashram. The event began with a welcome song, followed by a Ganesh Vandana. Next, a yoga asana demonstration accompanied by melodious music was presented. 

The highlight of the evening was an amazing dance performance set to the song "Shubh Din Aayo," which showcased the grace of Goddess Durga and captivated the audience. The students of MVM also performed beautiful bhajans, including "Achyutam Keshavam Krishna Damodaram" and "Narayan Mil Jaayenge," which enchanted everyone present. A student delivered a recitation of the Geeta Path. The cultural program concluded with a vibrant dance performance dedicated to the glory and peace of Lord Shiva, titled "Har Har Shankar." Many prestigious guests attended the program and highly appreciated the organization's efforts. 

The Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah will continue until February 4. All the events and programs are broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.

In today's discourse, Krishnadas Ji Maharaj recounted the tale of Ram Janam, focusing on the dialogue between Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati.

Goddess Parvati, eager to learn about Lord Rama, beseeched Lord Shiva to enlighten her, expressing her desire to dispel her doubts and ignite the lamp of devotion for Rama. Lord Shiva, recognizing the significance of Parvati's questions for the benefit of all, emphasized the role of a guru in dispelling ignorance. He likened the purifying power of Ram Katha to the sacred Ganges River, which cleanses all who immerse themselves in it.

Lord Shiva explained that whenever sinfulness prevails on Earth, the divine takes human form to restore balance. He detailed the circumstances leading to Lord Rama's birth, citing the curses of Jay-Vijay, Tulsi Maiya, Narad Ji, and Manu Maharaj. The deities chose King Dasharatha's Raghu dynasty as the most suitable lineage for Lord Rama's incarnation. Following the counsel of Guru Vashistha, King Dasharatha performed the Putreshti Yagna. The divine offering from the yagna was shared among his three wives, leading to the pregnancy of Queen Kaushalya. Finally, on the auspicious day of Chaitra Shukla Navami, Lord Rama was born.

In the evening, a delightful cultural program was held by Maharishi Vidya Mandir, Hardoi, at Maharishi Ashram.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Under the divine guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the daily recitation of the 1331 Rudrashtadhyayi and havan has been taking place at the Maharshi Ashram since the commencement of the Prayagraj Mahakumbh in 2025. Today, on Saturday, Vedic Pandits gathered at the Maharshi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, to take part in this sacred ritual and seek blessings from the divine Rudra.

His captivating performance drew the attention of the audience, creating a deeply spiritual environment for all those present. 

Krishnadas Ji Maharaj began today's story in Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah by emphasizing that if you seek peace in your life, you should take refuge in 'Aa.. Ram.' Chanting the name of Ram naturally brings peace. Once you accept Ram ji as your own, you will no longer need to search for fulfillment elsewhere. Simply surrender your life to God, and you will find everything you need. Krishnadas Ji Maharaj mentioned that the Shri Ram Janmotsav was celebrated during the story of Ram Ganga yesterday. Continuing from there, he recounted how, when Ram was one month old, King Dasharath called his Kulguru, Vashistha for the naming of the four princes.

As Vashisht Ji named Dasharath's eldest son, he proclaimed that this child embodies the ocean of joy. The happiness that he brings is such that even a single particle can please all three worlds. Thus, he named the eldest son 'Ram,' a name that signifies the giver of happiness and peace to all.

After naming Ram Ji, Vashisht Ji also named Dasharath's three other sons. He said that the one who nourishes the world would be called 'Bharat.' The son whose mere remembrance destroys enemies and is renowned in the Vedas would be named 'Shatrughan.' Finally, the child who is the abode of auspicious signs, dear to Shri Ram Ji and the foundation of the whole world, was given the name 'Laxman.' In this way, Guru Vashisht Ji beautifully named all four sons.

To continue the Ram Katha, Krishnadas Ji Maharaj narrated the beautiful and wonderful childhood antics of Shri Ram, which filled the hearts of the audience with joy. The Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah will continue until February 4.

In the evening, a captivating cultural program was held at Maharishi Ashram, organized by the talented students of Maharishi Vidya Mandir, Prayagraj Naini.

Next, the students showcased their talents again with another enchanting performance of Saraswati Vandana, accompanied by a serene bhajan titled "Ram Ji se Puche Janakpur Ke Naari," which resonated deeply with the audience.

The renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj began the Katha with a prayer at the holy feet of Lord Rama followed by melodious chants & hymns that created an atmosphere of divinity strengthening the bond and deep love between humans and the Supreme Being. 

The Katha Orator further explained how Ram’s advent on earth aimed at re-establishing Truth. He is the ultimate personification of Idealism. Even after thousands of years, his life serves as a guide as to how to lead one’s life. His life and his ruling in the form of Ram Rajya is what we aspire to have in our lives today. He established equality, peace, and truthfulness during his reign in Ayodhya in the wake of rigorous trials posted by circumstances time and again.

Sacred chants, devotional hymns, and the mesmerizing ambience of the ‘Mahakumbh’ amplified the spiritual energy of the Shri Ram Katha, making it a memorable and soul-enriching experience for all attendees. At the end Krishnadas Ji Maharaj motivated everyone to recognize the supreme within through the eternal technique of Brahm Gyan.  Brahm Gyan is attained by the grace of perfect Guru of the time who can make this realization possible. As per the Vedas, to attain Brahm Gyan, a disciple must pray at the Guru's lotus feet, get clarification for all questions they may have, and selflessly serve their Guru. Lord Ram too followed this process before His spiritual Guru, Shri Vashistha Ji, blessed Him with Brahm Gyan.

The Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah will continue until February 4.

Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj captivated the audience with the divine tales of the twelve Jyotirlingas. On the seventh and rest day of his narrative, Chaturvedi ji delved into the origin story of these sacred lingams. According to Hindu mythology, particularly the Shiva Purana, Lord Shiva manifested himself in the form of these twelve lingams for the welfare of humanity. These divine representations of Lord Shiva are believed to be the most powerful and sacred of all Shiva lingams.

Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj further elaborated on the omnipresence of Lord Shiva, stating that He exists in the form of 'Lingam' everywhere in the world. It is impossible to count these divine forms. Citing a conversation between Brahma Ji and Narada, Chaturvedi Ji explained that Brahma stated that from the banks of the Narmada River to the Himalayas, there are countless Shiva Lingams, too numerous to count. Furthermore, he asserted that every stone is a representation of Lord Shiva. He assured that he would share insights about the most significant among these forms.

Chaturvedi Ji explained that the establishment of these Jyotirlingas is linked to a legend involving two sages, Narada and Narayana, who were considered incarnations of Lord Vishnu. Impressed by their devotion, Lord Shiva appeared before them and granted their wish by residing there as a Jyotirlinga.

The twelve Jyotirlingas are scattered across India and are considered highly revered pilgrimage sites. Devotees from all over the country visit these holy shrines, especially during the auspicious month of Shravan, to seek blessings and spiritual enlightenment. It is believed that a mere darshan (glimpse) of a Jyotirlinga can alleviate all sufferings and bestow salvation. 

The twelve Jyotirlingas are: 1. Somnath - Gujarat, 2. Mallikarjun - Andhra Pradesh, 3. Mahakaleshwar - Madhya Pradesh, 4. Omkareshwar - Madhya Pradesh, 5. Kedarnath - Uttarakhand, 6. Bhimashankar - Maharashtra, 7. Vishwanath - Uttar Pradesh, 8. Tryambakeshwar - Maharashtra, 9. Vaidyanath - Jharkhand, 10. Rameshwar - Tamil Nadu, 11. Ghushmeshwar - Maharashtra (near Daulatabad in Sambhaji Nagar). Ghushmeshwar is known as the last Jyotirlinga. Seeing this Jyotirlinga is believed to grant moksha to individuals.

Chaturvedi  Ji further elaborated on the significance of each Jyotirlinga, highlighting the unique legends and spiritual significance associated with each site. He concluded his discourse by emphasizing the importance of visiting these sacred places to experience divine grace and inner peace.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: On the occasion of Maha Kumbh 2025, Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah by the renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj is being organised under the guidance of Brahmachari Girish Ji, a devoted disciple of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, at the Maharishi Ashram located on the banks of Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj.

Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj commenced today’s katha with Vedic Chants and prayer unto the lotus feet of Lord Shiva sanctifying the outer and inner surroundings. Acharya Chaturvedi Ji began by recounting the origin of Andhak, a formidable demon. According to the legend, Lord Shiva, while meditating on Mount Mandara, was interrupted by Goddess Parvati. When she playfully covered his eyes, darkness enveloped the universe. To restore light, Shiva opened his third eye, causing Parvati to sweat. From this sweat, a monstrous child emerged, later named Andhak due to his birth in darkness.

Shiva adopted the child, but later gifted him to the demon Hiranyaksha. Growing up amidst demons, Andhak became their king. Through intense penance, he obtained a boon from Brahma: he would die only if he lusted after his own mother. Believing he had no mother, Andhak felt invincible.

As the king of the three worlds, Andhak decided to marry the most beautiful woman in the cosmos. He chose Parvati, but his advances were rejected. When he tried to force her, Parvati called upon Shiva. Recognizing Andhak as his own son, Shiva revealed the truth and ended his life.

Maharaj's narration of this epic tale not only captivated the audience but also provided valuable insights into Hindu cosmology and the intricate relationships between gods and demons. The story of Andhak serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked power and the ultimate triumph of divine justice.

The Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah will continue until January 28. All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.

PRAYAGRAJ (Maha Media): During the ongoing Maha Kumbh Mela, renowned Katha Vyas Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi, while delivering the Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah at Maharshi Ashram, delved deep into the significance of fasting and the role of the human senses.

Acharya Chaturvedi posed a thought-provoking question, "Why do we fast while chanting hymns?" He explained that food leads to the senses becoming outward-focused, whereas spiritual practices require inward focus. Fasting helps us achieve this inward focus. He further elaborated that our senses, especially taste, are driven by desires, including hunger and the desire for specific foods. The pleasure of taste diminishes as hunger is satiated. True control over the senses lies in fasting, making it an ideal path for spiritual attainment.

The Katha Vyas emphasized the importance of discipline during fasting, stating that activities like criticism and anger can break the fast. He also highlighted the subtle difference between fasting and a complete fast.

Acharya Chaturvedi mentioned that attaining the love of the divine mother is challenging but not impossible. Regular chanting and three daily prayers can pave the way, especially under the guidance of a competent guru. He emphasized the significance of guru diksha (initiation by a spiritual master) and urged devotees to focus solely on the divine name.

Sharing a captivating story from the Shiv Mahapuran, Acharya Chaturvedi narrated the tale of Devi Maina, who performed austerities for 27,000 years and was blessed by the mountain king. Her daughter was destined to marry Ardhanarishvara, the combined form of Shiva and Shakti.

The Katha Vyas explained that a guru tests his disciple before initiation, much like a goldsmith purifies gold before crafting jewelry. He compared this process to the burning away of impurities through spiritual knowledge.

Highlighting the contributions of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Brahmachari Girish, Acharya Chaturvedi praised their efforts in promoting Indian culture and spirituality worldwide. He also emphasized the importance of guru diksha and the distinction between a householder's guru and a renunciate's guru.

The Shiv Mahapuran Katha, which is being held from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM, has been drawing large crowds who are deeply engrossed in the spiritual discourse.

PRAYAGRAJ (Maha Media): On the auspicious occasion of Maha Kumbh 2025, a grand Kathamrit Pravah of Shri Shiv Mahapuran is underway at the Maharishi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail. The event is being organized under the guidance of Brahmachari Girish Ji, a devoted disciple of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. 

Today, Acharya Chaturvedi Ji commenced the discourse with a deep dive into the Rudra Samhita, the first section of the sacred text dedicated to creation of Universe. He emphasized the profound teachings of Sut Ji to Shaunak Ji, highlighting the importance of immersing oneself in the stories of Lord Shiva to attain spiritual purity, even for those burdened by sins and negative emotions.

According to Acharya Ji, in the beginning, only Shiva and Shiva existed. They created Vishnu for the purpose of creation. Vishnu, upon inquiry, was instructed to perform severe austerities. The sweat from Vishnu's body transformed into vast oceans, upon which he reclined. A lotus emerged from his navel, giving birth to Brahma.

However, ego arose between Brahma and Vishnu, leading to a dispute over superiority. Brahma ascended to the heavens, and Shiva sent a ketaki flower to appease him. Brahma, in a bid to prove his superiority, tricked the flower into lying. Enraged, Shiva revealed himself in all his glory, filling the universe with light.

When Brahma inquired about the source of this light, Vishnu explained it to be the radiant pillar of Shiva and Shiva. Shiva then created a being from his brow hair, ordering him to behead Brahma. This being, known as Kala Bhairava, decapitated Brahma's fifth head. Brahma, humbled by this experience, attained knowledge and tranquility.

Shiva cursed Brahma, stating that he would never be worshipped and that the ketaki flower would never be offered to him. However, upon their repentance, Shiva instructed the flower to fall on a specific spot, where a temple dedicated to Brahma would be built. This place is now known as Pushkar and houses the only temple dedicated to Brahma.

Shiva also revealed that the city of Kashi was the first to be created and that Kala Bhairava was its first guardian.

The Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah will continue until January 28. All events and programs are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV and are also available on their YouTube and Facebook channels.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: On Thursday, Maharishi Vedic Pandits conducted 1,331 Paaths and Havans of the Rudrashtadhyayi for the welfare of the entire world at the Maharishi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj. The ceremony was attended by Ved Vidya Martand, Brahmachari Girish Ji.

The second day of the Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah by renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj commenced today’s katha with Vedic Chants and prayer unto the lotus feet of Lord Shiva sanctifying the outer and inner surroundings. Acharya Chaturvedi Ji highlighted the significance of the Shiv Puran, a sacred Hindu text dedicated to Lord Shiva. Responding to a query by Shaunakji about the correct method of listening to the Shiv Puran, Maharshi Vyasa’s disciple, Sutji, provided profound insights.
.

Sutji emphasized that while the Shiv Puran can be recited or listened to at any auspicious time, the month of Shravan is considered particularly auspicious for this purpose. The tale of Chanchala and her husband Bindug, who attained salvation by listening to the Shiv Puran, serves as a testament to its power.

The discourse stressed the importance of listening to the Shiv Puran with complete devotion and restraint. Those who recite or listen to it with love and devotion are considered virtuous and are blessed by Lord Shiva with a place in his divine abode. Regular worship of the Shiv Puran ensures a life of happiness and ultimate liberation.

Acharya Chaturvedi Ji stating that the Shiv Puran encompasses all aspects of life, offering spiritual, material, and emotional fulfillment. He urged devotees to listen to and read this sacred text with devotion and reverence to attain the highest spiritual goals. 

Chaturvedi Ji explains that when a sin or wrongdoing is committed outside of a holy or religious area, individuals have the opportunity to seek purification through acts of charity and by taking a ritual bath in a sacred location. However, he emphasizes that sins committed within a religious area carry a different weight. Such actions cannot be easily forgiven or erased, and the repercussions of these sins are seen as permanent.

Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj stated that the meditative pose of Lord Shiva symbolizes peace that helps one to overcome everyday battles and sort out issues. In today’s time too, every human needs to practice meditation regularly. Prayagraj is referred to as Brahmlok in the Shiva Mahapuran. Everyone present here has the good fortune of being here by the grace of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji. Therefore, you should practice daily Sandhya Vandana and Transcendental Meditation, and follow the traditions established by Maharishi Ji.

The Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah will continue until January 28.

In the evening, a delightful cultural program was presented by selected students from Maharishi Vidya Mandir at Maharishi Ashram.

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Today, on Tuesday, the seventh and final day of the ongoing Shrimad Bhagwat Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah at Maharshi Ashram, located on the banks of Sangam, Acharya Badrish Ji Maharaj spoke about the events leading up to today. Until now, we have heard the story of Shri Krishna's visit to Mathura, the killing of Kansa, the war with Jarsand for the 17th time, the construction of Dwarka, Krishna's visit to Dwarika, the description of Balram's marriage, and the first marriage of the Lord.

Continuing the narration, Badrish Ji Maharaj stated that Shri Krishna's marriage to Rukmani Ji was completed. When Krishna and Rukmani sit in Dwarka, it appears as if Lakshmi and Narayana have descended from Vaikuntha. Rukmani is considered the original Sanatani power of the Lord. Whenever the Lord incarnates, Rukmani Ji accompanies him. For instance, when the Lord incarnates as Shri Ram, Rukmani appears as Mother Sita.

Badrish Ji explained that after their marriage, Lord Krishna and Rukmani gave birth to a beautiful child named Pradyumna. However, as soon as Pradyumna was born, Shambarasur kidnapped him and threw him into the sea. A fish swallowed the child, and that fish was later caught in a fisherman's net, which was sent to Shambarasur's kitchen. When the fish was cut open, a very beautiful child emerged. Devrishi Narad revealed that this child was none other than her husband, Kaamdev. Consequently, the maid Mayavathi took care of the child.

Badrish Ji narrated that Kaamdev had been burnt due to the curse of Lord Shankar, and his wife, Rati, became mad with grief over her husband's separation. She performed penance to Lord Shankar to get her husband back. Parvati Ji blessed her by stating that her husband would be reborn as the son of Lord Krishna in Yadukul, and she would find him in Shambarasur's domain. Therefore, Rati took on the role of a maid in Shambarasura's household under the name of Mayavathi.

Continuing the story, Badrish Ji mentioned that the child was named Pradyumna. As Pradyumna grew up, he resembled Shri Krishna himself. Rati looked at him with great affection and shyness. Pradyumna then asked her why she harbored such negative feelings for him, having raised him like a mother. Rati then revealed the entire truth, stating that he was indeed her husband, Kaamdev. Rati then bestowed Maha Vidya upon Pradyumna, making him proficient in various forms of knowledge, including warfare.

After mastering the art of war, Pradyumna challenged Shambarasura to a duel in his court. After defeating Shambarasura, Pradyumna and Rati returned to Dwarka. All the women were filled with love upon witnessing Pradyumna's affection for Krishna. When Pradyumna and Rati met their mother, Rukmani, she realized that her child would grow to be just like his father, awakening her maternal affection. When Narad ji shared the entire story, everyone rejoiced.

As he recounted the 56th chapter of the Bhagwad, Badrish Ji Maharaj noted that Satrajit had falsely accused Shri Krishna of stealing the Syamantaka Mani. To absolve himself of this accusation, Satrajit offered his daughter, Satyabhama, along with the Syamantaka Mani, to Lord Krishna. Satyabhama possessed many virtuous qualities, including good nature, beauty, and generosity. Lord Krishna married Satyabhama following the proper rituals. In the 57th chapter, Badrish Ji Maharaj narrated the tale of the Syamantaka-haran and Shatdhanva's upliftment.

The seven-day spiritual discourse concluded with the blessings of Acharya Badrish Ji Maharaj. Devotees expressed gratitude for the opportunity to listen to the divine tales and seek spiritual enlightenment.

All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels. 
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: On the occasion of the Maha Kumbh-2025, Maharishi Vedic Pandits performed 1,331 Paaths and Havans of Rudrashtadhyayi at Teerth Raj Prayagraj on Wednesday. The ceremony was graced by the presence of Ved Vidya Martand, Brahmachari Girish Ji, an esteemed ascetic disciple of the renowned Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. This ceremonial gathering aimed to promote the welfare of the entire world and was held at the Maharishi Ashram located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj. 

During the event, Brahmachari Girish Ji delivered a profound message, stating that the primary goal of the 1,331 Paaths and Havans performed today was to enhance coherence in brain waves to streamline the lives of every citizen of India. He noted that this can be easily achieved through the regular practice of Transcendental Meditation, as taught by the highly revered Maharishi Ji.

In conjunction with this event, the Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah commenced at the Maharishi Ashram, adding to the spiritual atmosphere. The renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj, initiated the storytelling session with the Rudripath, followed by the chanting of Vedic mantras. The Shri Shiv Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah will continue until January 28. Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj is the president of the Sanatan Sanskar Seva Sansthan and the spokesperson for the Akhil Bharatvarsiya Brahmin Mahasabha in Vrindavan, Mathura.

Acharya Shri Ramvilas Chaturvedi, beautifully revealed the spiritual secrets from our ancient history explaining well about the lord of the three realms- Lord Shiva. He mentioned the eternal technique of -Divine Knowledge (Brahm Gyan). A true spiritual master of times activates the third eye of the human and makes him see Godwithin his soul. It is imperative to realize that Brahm Gyan can only be bestowed by the Perfect Master. Lord Shiva himself has praised the true spiritual master who is a combined form of Lord Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh. Like these ultimate divinities, the Guru also creates and sustains knowledge in disciples, he takes care, preserves resources,and destroys their ignorance.

Acharya Ramvilas Chaturvedi Ji Maharaj describes Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji as a revered figure in today’s world, comparable to the Brahmarishi who existed during the Treta, Dwapar, and Satya Yugas. In the current Kali Yuga, Maharishi Ji has earned this esteemed title. He is noted for guiding young Brahmin boys on the path of spirituality and strengthening their resolve. 

Katha orator said that the achievements of Maharishi Ji are remarkable; they surpassed what many great kings and emperors could accomplish. He was not an ordinary person, but truly extraordinary. According to Acharya Ji, Maharishi Ji's biography should be taught in every nation and university as it can educate the world and provide a meaningful path forward. Reading about Maharishi Ji’s life can transform one's own life and inspire action for the benefit of the world. The stories of his teachings serve as beautiful illustrations of how to change lives. Just as Shri Ram was guided by Maharishi Vasishta and Valmiki, and Shri Krishna by Sandipani, Maharishi Ji imparted the Vedas to countless children, many of whom now perform Puja and Paath in the grand temples across the country, which is a matter of great pride. Maharishi Ji can also be seen as an equivalent of Vasishta, Kapil Muni, or Vishwamitra.

In the evening, selected students from Maharishi Vidya Mandir School, Kanpur presented bhajans about Shiv-Parvati and Shri Krishna-Radha. They also performed a dance-drama about the heroic story of Maharani Lakshmi Bai. The performances brought joy to the large crowd, celebrating the spirit of devotion and culture during the Kumbh Mela festivities. Program started with Guru Pooja in the presence of directors, principal, teachers and the students. 

All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels. 
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: To disseminate the pearls of righteous living and divine knowledge propounded by Lord Krishna, the Maharishi Organisation orchestrated a spiritually transformative event, the Shrimad Bhagwat Mahapuran Katha, at Maharishi Aashram in Prayagraj. 

The spiritual orator of the mega event, the esteemed Acharya Badrish Ji Maharaj, illuminated the ancient wisdom of the ‘Shrimad Bhagwat Puran’ with profound insights and devotion. 

On Monday, Badrish Ji Maharaj commenced his narration by recalling the previous episode, where we explored the enchanting tales of Lord Krishna's Bal Leela along with the powerful Shri Giriraj Leela. Today's story builds upon those beautiful narratives. After being defeated by Lord Shri Hari, Indra accepted his mistake and anointed Lord Krishna with the waters of the Milky Way. Indra then honored the Lord with the name Upendra.

Continuing with the story, Badrish Ji Maharaj shared an intriguing incident, in which Nand Baba went to the bank of the Yamuna River to take a bath at midnight. It is believed that at night, while everyone sleeps, even the waters do. Consequently, the messengers of Varun Dev captured him and took him to their realm. When Nand Baba was not found after a thorough search, everyone turned to Krishna for help. Upon reaching Varun Lok, Varun Dev welcomed Krishna, apologized, and released Nand Baba. The residents of Brij, witnessing such miraculous Leelas of Krishna, were left in a state of awe and wonder. In a moment of revelation, Nand Baba explained to the villagers that during Krishna's naming ceremony, the esteemed sage Gargacharya had proclaimed that Krishna is indeed the incarnation of Narayan. This divine embodiment reappears in each era to vanquish the wicked and to restore Dharma, or righteousness.

As Badrish Ji Maharaj transitioned into discussing the Raasleela of God, he highlighted a common misconception. Many individuals mistakenly refer to the Raasleela as Kaam-leela, not realizing that it represents a profound divine act meant to conquer the desires embodied by Kaamdev, the god of love and desire. Elaborating further, Badrish Ji recounted a significant episode: Kaamdev, , in his pride, sought to challenge someone powerful after mesmerizing all, including the gods. At Narad Ji's suggestion, Kaamdev approached Krishna for a duel. Lord Krishna, knowing the intentions of Kaamdev, accepted the challenge, initiating a Leela intended to bring humility to Kaamdev’s inflated ego.

Sukhdev Ji, another revered sage, detailed the grandeur of the Raasleela, pointing out that it occurred on the sacred night of Sharad Purnima. During this splendid occasion, God danced joyfully with thousands of Gopis beneath the stars, surrounded by the fragrant Malika flowers that flourished in abundance. With the divine aid of Yogamaya, Krishna used the Gopis as an expression for engaging in the Raasleela, which symbolizes not just a dance but an essential aspect of Krishna's divine play. 

Within this context, it is important to recognize that Krishna embodies six divine qualities: Aishwarya (wealth), Dharma (righteousness), Fame, Shri (prosperity), Gyan (knowledge), and Vairagya (detachment). A person who possesses these six attributes is acknowledged as God. This collection of characteristics is referred to as Shadaishwarya—denoting completeness in all aspects. The complete presence of Aishwarya, Dharma, Fame, Shri, Gyan, and Vairagya marks the essence of divinity, a standard embodied fully in God.

Sukhdev Ji continued, revealing that Krishna extended the night of Sharad Purnima to match the long night of Brahma, which is said to be equivalent to millions of human nights. Remarkably, all six seasons were present during this transcendental Maharas. As the Raas commenced, the Gopis became immersed in their emotions, mistakenly believing that Krishna's attention was singularly focused on them. However, upon experiencing this worldly sentiment, Krishna chose to become invisible, creating a moment of reflection.

Badrish Ji Maharaj emphasized that where there is ego, God does not linger. Realizing their error, the Gopis were consumed by sorrow and began to cry, longing for Krishna’s presence. Upon witnessing their heartfelt repentance, God’s compassion awakened, and he reappeared before them. In this subsequent union, Krishna performed the Maharasleela free from any carnal desires, showcasing the purity of divine love. Despite Kaamdev's efforts to instill feelings of attraction in Krishna towards the Gopis, he was utterly unsuccessful. Krishna remained untouched by these attempts, ultimately leading Kaamdev to accept his defeat. This powerful narrative concludes with the understanding that God is the embodiment of love, extending his grace even to those who oppose him, demonstrating that true love transcends all barriers.

The event concluded with Aarti and Prasad distribution. During Maha Kumbh, Shrimad Bhagwat Katha received an overwhelming response from the local community and attendees. The profound teachings and soulful renditions left a lasting impact on the hearts of the devotees.

All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: A profound spiritual discourse on the life of Prahlad, a devout devotee of Lord Vishnu, was delivered by the renowned spiritual leader, Badrish Ji Maharaj, at the Maharshi Ashram during the ongoing Maha Kumbh Mela.

Maharaj Ji emphasized that Lord Narasimha’s incarnation was a direct result of Prahlad’s unwavering devotion. He explained that the Lord manifests in whatever form and at whatever time a devotee desires, highlighting the divine power of pure devotion.

Using the analogy of a drowning disciple, Maharaj Ji illustrated how the feeling of helplessness and dependence on the divine is akin to the divine intervention. When the devotee's heart yearns for God, the Lord is ever-ready to appear.

The narrative then shifted to the harrowing ordeal of Prahlad, who was subjected to various tortures by his demon father, Hiranyakashipu. Despite facing immense suffering, Prahlad's faith in the Lord remained unshaken. When Hiranyakashipu challenged Prahlad to show him where his Lord resided, Prahlad pointed to the pillar, inviting the demon to strike it. As soon as Hiranyakashipu struck the pillar, Bhagwaan emerged in his ‘Narasimha’ half-lion, half-man avatar and vanquished the demon.

Impressed by Prahlad's unwavering devotion, Lord Narasimha offered him a boon. Prahlad, selfless and humble, declined, stating that those who seek anything in return for devotion are merely traders and not true devotees. Only after much insistence did Prahlad request the Lord to forgive his father. The Lord granted his wish, stating that the birth of a devotee in a family ensures the salvation of twenty-one generations.
Narada Muni further explained that the Lord bears no malice towards anyone. Even demons slain by the Lord attain divine realms, similar to sages.

Badrish Ji further said that the gods once ruled supreme in the heavens while the demons were left without a place to call home. To accommodate the demons, the divine creator fashioned a golden, impenetrable city between the celestial realms and the Earth. This city was adorned with a pool of nectar that granted immortality to its inhabitants, leading to a rapid increase in their population.

When the gods grew alarmed by the demons' growing power, Lord Vishnu, in the guise of a cow, and Lord Brahma, as a calf, infiltrated the demonic city. There, they consumed the entire pool of nectar, effectively neutralizing the demons' immortality. Subsequently, Lord Shiva, with a single strike of his trident, obliterated the entire city, which was known as Tripura. In recognition of this feat, Lord Shiva earned the epithet "Tripurari," meaning the destroyer of Tripura.

The Katha Amrit Pravah will continue daily until January 21, from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM. All the events and programmes are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: On the auspicious occasion of the Maha Kumbh 2025 being held in Prayagraj, Brahmacharari Girish Ji, a devout disciple of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, visited the Vindhyavasini Devi temple in Vindhyachal along with several directors of Maharishi Vidya Mandir. Here, he offered prayers to the Goddess and sought her blessings for the health, prosperity, and peace of all the world's citizens.

Speaking on the occasion, he stated, "Vindhyavasini Devi is the primordial form of all great goddesses like Lakshmi, Kali, Durga, and Saraswati. One gains the grace and blessings of all these goddesses by simply worshipping her."

Later, he visited the Maharishi Ved Vigyan Vidyapeeth near Vindhyachal city and met with 145 young Brahmin students studying there. He inquired about their progress in Vedic studies and listened to their chanting. Brahmachari Girish Ji emphasized, "The Vedas are the embodiment of complete knowledge and the pulsations of the soul. Vedic chanting should be done softly and sweetly, not loudly, as melodious chanting is the key to receiving divine blessings." He extended his best wishes for a bright future to all the young Brahmins, their teachers, and the institute's administrators.
 

PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: On the third day of the ongoing Srimad Bhagwat Mahapuran Kathamrit Pravah at Maharshi Mahesh Yogi Ashram in Prayagraj, Acharya Shri Badrish Maharaj shared insights from the previous day's discussion. He recounted the glory of devotion, the unparalleled incarnations of God, the creation of the Mahabharata, the arrival of Narad ji, and his sermon to Vyas ji, concluding with the end of the Mahabharata war.

Continuing today's story, Badrish Ji Maharaj highlighted the homecoming of Lord Krishna to Dwarka after a brief stay in Hastinapur. The people of Dwarka expressed immense joy and relief at his return, emphasizing the void they felt in his absence. Swami Badrish Maharaj drew parallels between Lord Krishna's return and that of Lord Rama to Ayodhya, underlining the profound impact these divine figures had on their devotees.

Badrish Maharaj further revealed that following the war, Dharmaraj Yudhishthira assumed the throne and ruled the kingdom righteously. It was during his reign that Parikshit, a devout devotee of Lord Krishna, was born to Uttara.

The discourse also shed light on the spiritual journey of Vidura. Upon returning from a pilgrimage, Vidur met the Pandavas. Yudhishthir greeted him warmly, saying, “Saints like you are the true essence of pilgrimages.” “Saints like you transform mere pilgrimages into profound sanctuaries of redemption.” The gathering of pilgrims pondered deeply, asking the Lord about the fate of the sins that sinners abandon at these holy sites. “What shall we do with the burdens they cast aside?” they inquired. The Lord, with a benevolent smile, replied, “When my saints grace you with their touch, the act of washing their feet will cleanse you of all your transgressions, restoring your purity.”

Yudhishthir then remarked, “Vidur ji, you are the embodiment of pilgrimages; you transform them into true sanctuaries.” Swami Badrish Maharaj further elaborated on the significance of saints in the context of the Kumbh Mela. He explained that the touch of a saint can purify even the most sinful of places, making the Kumbh Mela a particularly sacred event.

The discourse took a poignant turn as Swami Badrish Maharaj recounted Vidura's visit to his elder brother, Dhritarashtra. Despite the passage of time, Dhritarashtra was unable to find peace due to his past sins. Vidura confronted Dhritarashtra about his actions and the consequences he faced. The spiritual leader highlighted the importance of living a righteous life and the inevitability of karma.
 
The discourse concluded with a profound message on the importance of spirituality, devotion, and the eternal consequences of one's actions. Devotees attending the discourse were deeply moved by the spiritual insights shared by Swami Badrish Maharaj.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: With the divine blessings of Anant Shri Vibhushit Jyotishpeethadheeshwar Jagatguru Shankaracharya Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj, and under the able guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the 108th birthday of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji was celebrated as ‘Age of Enlightenment Day’ (Gyan Yug Diwas) with grandeur and reverence. This event took place at the Maharishi Ashram located on the Sangam Ghat in Prayagraj on Sunday.

The grand celebration of ‘Age of Enlightenment Day’ was honored by the presence and blessings of Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj, along with esteemed Saints, Mahatmas, Vedic scholars, educationists, public representatives, and other distinguished guests. 

On this special day, Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj shared his blessings, noting that today is the birthday of both Swami Vivekananda and Maharshi Ji. Both have represented our Sanatan tradition globally. Brahma embodies truth and knowledge, and He is the essence of everything in this world. Nothing can exist without Him. Maharshi Mahesh Yogi, a great disciple of our Gurudev, shared Gurudev's teachings and knowledge throughout the country. While Vivekananda also took this knowledge abroad, but he was unable to fulfill this mission entirely. Maharshi Ji successfully spread it worldwide through his teachings.

We often have a tendency to forget, even the words of our great leaders, but Maharshi Ji worked hard to share his Gurudev's teachings gained from meditation. We should meditate on our God. We believe that meditating on nothing, or zero, is not important. Zero means nothing, while the soul means everything. Maharishi Ji has established a vast and supportive community dedicated to spiritual growth, and under the leadership of Brahmachari Girish Ji, the important work that Maharishi Ji initiated is being carried on diligently and continuously. 

Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj encouraged everyone to adopt meditation in their lives. He wishes for us to practice meditation and achieve soul realization through it. This is his blessing for us.

In the second session, a seminar was organised with the theme "Establishment of World Peace through Indian Vedic Culture and Traditions." The third session featured devotional songs performed by Ms. Vini Gupta from Bhopal and Mrs. Anuradha Agastya from Delhi. The audience was filled with devotion due to the exceptional presentation of these songs.

The Gyan Yug Diwas celebrations are being broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
 

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: With the divine blessings of Anant Shri Vibhushit Jyotishpeethadheeshwar Jagatguru Shankaracharya Swami Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj, and under the able guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, the 108th birthday of His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji was celebrated as ‘Age of Enlightenment Day’ (Gyan Yug Diwas) with grandeur and reverence. This event took place at the Maharishi Ashram located on the Sangam Ghat in Prayagraj on Sunday.

In his keynote address, Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji mentioned that Jagatguru Shankaracharya Ji Maharaj is present today to bless all of us. Today is an auspicious occasion, marking the 108th birthday of Maharshi Ji, as well as the birthday of Swami Vivekananda. We have gathered to remember and embody Maharshi Ji's teachings of Ved Vigyan.

Reflecting on Maharshi Ji's life, Girish Ji shared that he was born in the village of Panduka in 1917. Maharshi Ji played a unique role in spreading the ideals of Indian Sanatan Gyan Vigyan across the globe. Maharshi Ji emerged from a small village and proudly spread the flag of Indian Sanatan knowledge and science around the world, which is truly unique. He consistently attributed his success to his Guru. Every year on Guru Purnima, he would offer everything he achieved to his Gurudev. Maharshi Ji had a special connection to Prayagraj, where he continued his education after childhood. However, he eventually chose to leave his education unfinished and dedicate himself fully to his Gurudev. Maharishi Ji had no regrets about this choice, as he received an all-encompassing education from his Guru. Maharshi Ji taught that studying one subject helps in understanding all subjects, with the main focus being on the 'Aatma.' Understanding the ‘Aatma’ leads to knowledge of all other subjects. 

Brahmachari Girish Ji said that Maharshi Ji described the active form of the soul as consciousness. He identified seven levels of consciousness. He explained that if you make a resolution while in a state of transcendental consciousness, that resolution is guaranteed to be fulfilled. Once a person reaches a level of accomplishment, they no longer need to make specific resolutions; instead, they find that nature itself begins to fulfill their wishes naturally.

On this occasion, Swami Chidanand Saraswati, head of Parmarth Niketan Ashram, stated, "Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation teaches the art of living. Maharishi Ji connected it with knowledge, and Swami Vivekanand Ji awakened it. This connection is why the influence of knowledge is growing within the global system today; we must focus on meditation."

On this occasion, a seminar was organised with the theme "Establishment of World Peace through Indian Vedic Culture and Traditions, where the former Vice Chancellor of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Vedic University, Prof. Bhuvnesh Sharma, along with Madhusudan Deshpande Ji, Director of Ojas Foundation shared their thoughts. They emphasized that achieving peace of mind is fundamental to creating peace in the world. Maharishi Ji has provided a straightforward, easy, and natural method for attaining inner peace. 

Deshpande Ji explained that individuals who commit to practicing this meditation for just 20 minutes twice a day can experience numerous physical and mental health benefits. This practice not only leads to a greater sense of well-being but also fosters a healthier and happier lifestyle. Such individuals can first create peace in their communities, and then extend it to the country and the world.

Concluding the seminar, Brahmachari Girish Ji said, "Our stories, examples, Ramcharit Manas, Srimad Bhagavad Gita, etc. have small lessons embedded in them that tell us about the traditions of India. We should all learn from them and follow these traditions and keep both mind and deeds detached, only then can we remain calm and bring peace to the world."

Earlier, the main program began with the Puja of Shri Vedic Guru Parmpara and the Paduka of Shankaracharya, following the lighting of a lamp by the honored guests. This was followed by the recitation of the Vedic Shanti Path by Maharishi Vedic Pandits and the honoring of the Vedic scholars.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: The "Deepawali Gyan Prakash Satsang" was held at the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Institute in Bhopal. Brahmachari Girish Ji, Chairman of Maharishi Educational Institutions Group, began the program by lighting a lamp. 

Addressing the gathering, Brahmachari Girish Ji said, "When we talk about society, it always includes the global family. Nowadays, people's lives are not what they should be. It is the need of the hour to purify and refine people's consciousness. Today, everyone talks about the different levels of the brain and the mind. However, people do not know the difference between the mind and the brain. The mind is software, while the brain is hardware. At the base of the mind is consciousness, and at the base of consciousness is the soul."

Brahmachari Girish Ji explained that to succeed in any area of life, we must connect with our soul. He criticized the education system for being too theoretical and lacking practical application, especially regarding Sadhana. He pointed out that Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools teach at a higher level of consciousness rather than simply providing book knowledge. He expressed concern that it is troubling if someone with a PhD does not even know the first verse of the Rigveda or Sandhya Vandana.

Brahmachari Ji related Maharishi Ji's teachings, noting that they built their knowledge community through the blessings of the Guru. He urged everyone to practice the techniques taught by Maharishi Ji to help reduce stress in the world. He mentioned that the technology of Transcendental Meditation is available to everyone. While many people focus on Asanas and Yoga, he believes not enough attention is given to knowledge. Maharishi Ji established 3,000 centers worldwide, all named Ashtanga Yoga Centers.

Brahmachari Girish Ji said we want to bring together 10,000 Sadhaks to help make the world a better place. These Sadhaks will practice Yogic Flying, Transcendental Meditation, and Siddhi Sutra while following Vedic routines in one location. Brahmachari Girish Ji invited everyone present to support the Maharishi Institute's initiative and to join others who are interested in our program. Together, we can create a community that promotes peace and greater awareness for everyone.

Brahmachari Ji also raised concerns about the general lack of health awareness and announced a campaign to educate people about this issue. He launched the Mahaswasthya Abhiyan to promote health awareness. The magazine Ojasvi will help spread this message to a wider audience, focusing on Sadhana.

Mr. Aseem Shrivastava, Principal Chief Conservator of Forests in Madhya Pradesh, shared his thoughts during the Satsang. He stressed that people face many challenges that affect their lives. He called for urgent efforts to conserve trees, forest land, and wildlife, while also reducing carbon emissions and promoting tree planting.

BHOPAL [Maha Media]: "The world is full of stress; the reason for this is explained in detail in our Vedic scriptures and Ayurveda. ' Pragyapradh' or mistake of intellect means doing wrong things despite knowledge. ‘Pragyapradh’ is a violation of the law of nature. No matter our intentions, we will face consequences for this offense. The ultimate reality of life is ‘Moksh’. All our deeds should be done in the direction of salvation, only then will our life be meaningful, otherwise all are useless. We are all connected to the Vedic Guru tradition, so we worship our Gurus daily and express our gratitude to them. We ask them to guide us towards salvation, give meaning to our lives, and help us attain salvation." The above thoughts were expressed by the Hon’ble Chairman of Maharishi Group of Educational Institutions, Ved Vidya Martand, Brahmachari Dr. Girish Ji, in a celebration organised to commemorate the International Day of Peace in the cultural hall of Maharishi Centre For Educational Excellence (MCEE), National Camp Office of Maharishi Vidya Mandir Schools at Lambakheda in Bhopal on Saturday. 

Brahmachari Girish Ji urged the audience to join the World Peace Movement established by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji. He stressed that there is still much work to be done in the future. We have the technology, means, resources, and time, but we need all your support. You should join this movement and help educate people about consciousness, as it is our duty as Sanatani. Invincibility and peace are in Transcendental Meditation.  Peace is not outside the tree but in its roots, it is in consciousness. If we want to achieve peace at every level, we must stop the Pragyapradh. When this stops, we will be able to experience consciousness through Transcendental Meditation. By diving into this ocean of existence and crossing it, we will be able to achieve Moksha (salvation), which is the ultimate goal of our lives.  ‘Moksh’ can be achieved only by Transcendental Meditation. 

Earlier, the program began with the Shri Guru Parampara Poojan and Swasti Vachan performed by Vedic Pandits. This was followed by the traditional felicitation of the dignitaries with Tilak and plant samplings. After the felicitation, all the attendees participated in a group practice of Transcendental Meditation.

BHOPAL [ Maha Media]“Every individual first needs to be friend with his own Atma–his soul, because the soul is the root of human life and without root a plant or tree cannot survive for long. We have our roots, our spiritual consciousness. Without its awakening, it is impossible to achieve real happiness in life. Out of seven states of consciousness, the most important is Transcendental Consciousness.
“In today's time, a common man is not able to perform many tasks of daily life simultaneously, but twice daily practice of Transcendental Meditation provides a lot to a person in a few minutes. The most revered His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi ji has never talked about peace in a small place, city, state or a country but world peace for our dear global family and welfare of every individual on earth.

It is unimaginable that even after being from such a place, he traveled to more than 124 countries to spread the light of Vedic knowledge across the globe. 

Maharishi Ji always used to say that there are two valuable things in his life, first is the knowledge received from Gurudev Brahmanand Saraswati and second is his blessings. By sharing the knowledge of Transcendental Meditation with people across the world and creating joy in their lives, Gurudev's knowledge and his blessings for him will multiply. Maharishi Ji never planned for himself but worked for the betterment of the whole world family and spread the knowledge of Transcendental Meditation.

Hon'ble Chairman further said that every time you breathe there is some impact in the universe so enjoy every moment of your life. When you are happy then the whole universe is happy with you and when you are sad or angry then it also has to suffer. So try to share the good things and happiness with others, this will increase the positivity and happiness around the world. Girish Ji also extended his thanks and best wishes to all the students and said that in our education system knowledge is covered by dust, in this 10 days training students will learn Indian Vedic knowledge, Guru Parampara, Yoga, Pranayama, Transcendental Meditation, Siddhi Programs, Yogic Flying and many more topics from our expert team.

The 10-day festival began with Paduka Pujan and Vyas Gadi Pujan followed by the lighting of the lamp by Vedic Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat. Brahmachari Girish Ji also performed Guru Puja with Vedic chanting by Vedic Pundits. Swami Shri Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj Ji welcomes all the distinguished guests with shawls, flower bouquets, and mementos. Along with the chief guest RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, Keshari Nath Tripathi, former Governor of West Bengal, Brahmachari Hari Chaitanya Ji and Katha Vyas, Param Pujya Swami Shri Jitendranath Ji Maharaj, Shrinath Peethadhishwar were also present.

On this occasion, Brahmachari Girish Ji informed that Shri Gurudev Swami Shri Brahmanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj was the master of Ved and all its 40 aspects known as Vedic Vangmay. Because of these qualities, the second President of India, Dr. S. Radhakrishnan adored him as 'Vedanta Incarnate'. We all are very enthralled to celebrate the 150th birth anniversary of Shri Gurudev as ‘Aradhna Mahotsav’ at the holiest place Prayagraj under the leadership of present Shankracharya of Jyotirmath Swami Shri Vasudevanand Saraswati Ji Maharaj.

While addressing the gathering, RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat Ji said that all the great men who awakened the society made spirituality the basis and religion is not possible without it.  “You look at saints, mahatmas, sanyasis or great men like Rabindranath Tagore, Gandhiji or Ambedkar working in social life. They also used to say that nothing will happen without religion”.

“Dharma means taking everyone along, driving everyone together, uplifting everyone. Where there is no religion, people believe that the one who is strong will go ahead and the one who is weak will surely die. Religion says that the one who is strong should protect the weak. Religion comes out of spirituality,” Bhagwat said.

RSS chief said, “It is spirituality that purifies our individual life, our family life and our national social life. If people do not get guidance, they go astray. It is the good fortune of our nation that the tradition of great men who guide the people by their conduct has continued unbroken. Brahmalin Swami Shantanand Saraswati was from the same tradition.”

Bhagwat said, “To make life a human life, one has to be spiritual. Looking at material and spiritual life separately is not our attitude because we look at all things from a holistic point of view.”

After that Shrimad Bhagwat Katha was recited by Shri Jitendranath Ji Maharaj, and which will continue till 08 December 2022 from 2 pm.

Today, Covid-19 has spread around the planet and still no suitable vaccine has been produced to control its spread. Our Indian ancient Vedic tradition has always been rich, and a solution to deal with this epidemic is also present here. The way to defeat this invisible epidemic is also invisible and it can only be possible by awakening our consciousness. His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ji was fond of this saying from the Yoga Sutras – 'Heyam dukham anagatam'. Avert the danger before it arises. On the occasion of Independence Day, we have to preserve the freedom and health of the citizens of this great nation and our proud country 'The Use of modern security techniques is also necessary, and they should be used, but actual security can also be done through Vedic techniques, which is based on principles and experiments of prevention, every person should use them to protect their country. It is not enough just to secure only physical boundaries, proper protection of every sphere of life is also important, only then India will be able to become completely safe and invincible. Transcendental meditation is one of Maharishi's gifts to the world that will benefit all people for many centuries to come. Soon we are establishing a group of 9000 permanent world peace creators at Brahmsthan of India. Coherence-Satoguna created by this group will bring down the effect of Rajoguna and Tamoguna. And after this there will be no negativity left in the world. This is a permanent one vaccine for prevention of all problems in the world.

Happy Independence Day..! May this festival season fill everyone’s life with good health and happiness.

Praising the glory of Maharishi Ji, Girish Ji said that Maharishi ji has gifted mankind a unique technique of Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi programs and Yogic Flying. This consciousness based technique of Maharishi Ji has made everything easy for us. It is a tradition in our organization that every day we take a dip in the ocean of consciousness, so that everyone experiences ultimate peace. Where there is peace there is Anand. So there is no need to take a dip in any holy river or go to Himalayas. Everything is within us and peace is also within us, we just need to find it. 

Girish Ji said that people always complain that Vedas are very difficult to follow and their mind gets attracted towards useless things. 

The Vedic tradition brings them to a point—a point of infinity—and then the mind is not disturbed. 'Ek hi sadhe sab sadhe' which means do one thing, and everything happens by itself. Brahmachari Ji further said that due to this Covid-19 pandemic more than 45 lakh people died globally and about 4 lakh people died in India.  This is no small figure, in this pandemic we have also lost many people of our organisation whom we will always remember. Girish Ji reiterated his resolve that we have to gather 10000 Vedic Pandits at the center point of India - Brahmasthan. Presently around 3000 Vedic Pandits lived in Brahmasthan who regularly perform Yagya and meditation. But we still need 7000 person more who can go there to change the fate of the world from endless war to lasting peace.

Guru Vandana was presented by the talented students and teachers of selected Maharishi Vidya Mandir schools.

On this occasion the heads and directors of various Maharishi institutions, principals, teachers and a large number of students were also present online.

Girish Ji praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s efforts towards promoting Yoga and said it was due to the prime minister’s initiatives that yoga has got international recognition and June 21 is now celebrated as the International Day of Yoga.

Girish ji said that in general today Yoga is considered only as a physical exercise, but yoga is much more than this. Brahmachari ji said that the concept of celebrating International Yoga Day is good but today yoga has become a photo op, so we should try to do it seriously on all 365 days of the year.

It is very difficult to explain yoga in one point. What people know about yoga is not complete, it is only a small part of it. Maharishi Patanjali has created yoga by combining eight limbs. The eight limbs are described as Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayam, Pratyahar, Dharna, Dhyana and Samadhi. Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pratyahara are considered to be external aspects and Dharna, Dhhyan and Samadhi are internal aspects. In simple words, yoga is the means for the soul to reach the Supreme Soul, Girish Ji added.

Extending greetings on International Yoga Day at the end of his virtual address, Girish Ji said that the government should implement yoga in its full form in all areas of the society including education, only then all-round development of all would be possible.

Mahabharat and Ramayana are two of the most significant epics in the Hindu religion - while Ramayana is about the path chosen by Lord Rama during the human life cycle form on earth, Mahabharat is often described as "the longest poem ever written".

Mahabharat is huge and diverse and is a story set during the time of the Kurukshetra war, fought between cousins Pandavas and the Kauravas. It is so vast that it's often regarded as the 'Fifth Veda'. The Bhagawad Gita is a 700-verse Hindu scripture that is part of the epic Mahabharat. 

Bhagwad means 'God' and Gita means 'song' and thus in Hinduism, the Bhagavad Gita means the 'song of god'. The protagonists here are Arjun, the distraught and concerned Pandava prince and his mentor/friend and charioteer - Lord Krishna.

The Bhagawad Gita speaks of a lot of different aspects of life. Aspects, so acute that they can change the way people think perceive the challenges they face in life. Lord Krishna through his words in Gita can help us show us who we really are and can be as a person. Over everything, he made us differentiate between good and bad and how to have peace in life by overcoming our challenges.

Here are some quotes from the Bhagawad Gita on Friendship, Karma and Life:

Friendship

Arjun and Krishna were the incarnations of Narayana and Nara, technically making Arjuna part of Krishna. They share a very deep bond and while at war, Krishna leads Arjun out of his uncertainty of being in a war and towards the right path. 

Krishna quoted, “Whatever action is performed by a great man, common men follow in his footsteps, and whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues.”

The Gita teaches us about Karma and Dharma. Arjun was not ready to fight the war of Kurukshetra because that would shed the blood and tears of his own, but Krishna convinced Arjun to do the same made him realise that the Kauravas were on the wrong side and to maintain the balance of Karma and Dharma, this fight had to be fought.

Thus Krishna being a great friend and companion of Arjun, made him believe in himself and led him with courage and valour to stand victorious.

Karma
Lord Krishna said, “The meaning of Karma is in the intention. The intention behind the action is what matters. Those who are motivated only by desire for the fruits of action are miserable, for they are constantly anxious about the results of what they do.”

Karma can be simply described as the outcome for action but in an implicit manner. It can be both good and bad. But to closely understand Karma, Lord Krishna says that even if we are about to do something wrong, at the end of the day if the reason behind this is sacred or pure, then it is fair.

Krishna also quoted, ''No one who does good work will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come.''

Which means that the balance of life should always be measured between right and wrong and one will always pay for his/her Karma. If someone has always followed the correct path of life and understood the real difference between good and bad, nothing bad shall ever happen to him/her.

Life

''Lust, anger and greed are the three doors to hell''

In Bhagwad Gita, Lord Krishna opens up a new dimension to how we people normally see life. He makes us understand the basic life values which are minute to ignore but can make a large impact on our lives when taken on a greater scale.

He considers that too much lust and greed towards life can often make us forget what is enough for us and to keep on striving more and more for something that we already have in abundance can not be the best option ever.

He believes in the fact can too much anger can destruct our composure and our ability to think and through peace and calmness we can find the right path
