Krishnadas Ji Maharaj captivates audience with Ram Katha narration
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. Today, on Tuesday, Vedic Pandits performed at the Maharshi Ashram, located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj, to seek blessings from the divine Rudra.
In addition to the recitation and Havan, renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj, began the seventh and final day of Shri Ram Kathamrita Pravah with melodious 'Ram Kirtan’ and Bhajan. The beautiful singing and the strong chanting of Mantras filled the auditorium with devotion.
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.
MVM Rewa held its third cultural program at Maharishi Ashram in the evening. The program began with a devotional song about Lord Ram, titled "Tum Utho Siya Singar Karo, Ab Dhanush Ram Ne Toda Hain." This was followed by a lively group dance representing Maa Kalika. Next, students performed "Shiv Stuti."
One student gave a solo dance showing Indian culture, followed by a group song, "Jai Jai Gange." The students then sang "Aa Jaao Bhoole Marghat Main," along with the peaceful song "Itni Shakti Hume Dena Daata, Mann Ka Vishwas Kamjor Ho Na," which moved the audience. 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.
At the end of the program, Brahmachari Girish ji thanked the students for their excellent performances over the last three days during the Maha Kumbh at Maharishi Ashram. 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.
The Shri Devi Bhagwat Mahapurana Kathamrit Pravah will take place at Maharishi Ashram from tomorrow. Acharya Dr. Nilimp Tripathi, a well-known Katha Vyas and astrologer, will lead the event. 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.
