A very happy New Year to all of you: Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu




This blog post is to wish all the readers a very happy and prosperous new year 2010.
" Aniruddha-varshabhinandan".

This year fortunately for all the Shraddhavans the last day of the year i.e. 31st December had fallen on the holy day i.e Thursday and there was Pravachan as usual but for the extended time i.e. past 12 mid-night. P. P. Aniruddha Bapu P. P. Nandai and P. P. Suchitdada Themselves wished prosperity, bhakti to all the Shraddhavans on the occassion of dawn of new year. A special prayer ceremony was specially organized at the mid-night hour.

Following mantras, verses and hymns were recited by all the Shraddhavans in presence of P. P. Aniruddha Bapu P. P. Nandai and P. P. Suchitdada. The sequence of the special prayer recited is as follows:

1) Ram Vijay Mantra ("Ramo Raj Mani" shlok)

2) Ghorkashta-Uddharan Stotra (1 time)

3) "Anasuyotri Sambhuto" shlok (for sometime, approx 3-5 mins)

4) Adimata Ashubhanashini Stotra (1 time)

5) "Sarva Mangal Mangalye, Shive Sarvartha Sadhike. Sharanye Trimbake Gauri Narayani Namostute" mantra (for sometime, approx 3-5 mins)

6) "Om Aiem Hrim Clim Chamundayey Viche" mantra (for sometime, approx 3-5 mins)

7) "Om Krupasindhu Shri Sai Nathaya Namah" mantra (for sometime, approx 3-5 mins).

After this prayer P. P. Bapu asked all the Shraddhavans to offer this same sequence of prayers to the Lord on the eve of every new year at the stroke of mid-night. Bapu said that this period of transition from old year to new year is very important (from 11 : 50 pm to 12 : 10 am) and holy recitations should be essentially made during this time. Further Bapu said that this prayer should be done by keeping our Mother, Bhakta -Mata (Chida-nanda Shakti) in front of you or by imagining Her to be infront of us. Once we do this He i. e. Lord Parmatma and Goddess Alhadini would come and settle Themselves in the life of each one us for the entire year, who prays this way. P. P. Bapu said that one can enjoy the new year to the fullest, one can throw a party, enjoy great food and cakes but should not forget Him (Lord Parmatma) during those celebratory times.

Thank You Very Much Bapu for Giving Such a Wonderful Start to Our New Year and a Very, Very Happy New Year to You, Nandai, Suchitmama and Your Entire Family.
