Bhakti Se Amar

भक्ति से अमर ( Immortal Devotion )

वो सुनते थे उनकी, जो है पावन अवतार

मर्यादा पुरषोत्तम, गुन जिनके विशेष हैं चार।

हमारा

ना मन स्थिर है, ना चरित्र

ना विचार स्वच्छ हैं, ना भाषा

ना आवरण शुद्ध हैं, ना आचरण

ना स्वभाव सरल है, ना दिशा

फिर क्यों सुने वो हमारी,

और क्यों हो हमें वो आशा,

जब रोक ना पाये हम खुदको,

और बनते रहे तमाशा.

ना आंसू बनके बरसे,

ना पीड़ा को हम समझे,

वो सच से रहे हम डरते,

और डूबते रहे हम गहरे।

जहां चरण नहीं,

वहां शरण नहीं,

इस व्यर्थ जीवन का,

कोई स्मरण नहीं,

वो राममय, बस एक नाम.

वो परम सत्य, बस एक ज्ञान।

वो दो नहीं, वो एक प्राण

वो भक्ति से अमर, वो एक ध्यान।

The Deeper Wisdom: Immortality Beyond the Physical

Immortality, as granted to Hanuman, transcends the mere absence of death. It signifies the eternal nature of the soul, the unbreakable bond between the devotee and the divine, and the perpetual relevance of dharma. Hanuman's immortality teaches us that true life is not measured by the number of years lived but by the depth of one's devotion, the righteousness of one's actions, and the purity of one's heart.

In the grand tapestry of existence, Hanuman stands as a testament to the power of unwavering faith and devotion. His story invites us to reflect on our own lives, urging us to align our actions with dharma, to serve selflessly, and to cultivate a heart filled with love for the divine.

Who Gave Hanuman the Blessing of Immortality?

Kavach Mantra - Lord Hanuman

“ॐ नमो हनुमते रुद्रावताराय 

सर्वशत्रु संहारणाय सर्वदुष्टभूतप्रेतविनाशनाय 

सर्वविघ्ननिवारणाय रामदूताय स्वाहा॥”

अर्थ - हे हनुमान आप रूद्र के अवतार हो और रामदूत हो। हमारे सर्व शत्रु का नाश कीजिए, आपकी कृपा दृष्टि से सर्व रोगों का हरण कीजिए। हे राम दूत हम आपसे प्रार्थना करते हैं कि आपकी कृपा से हमारे सभी कार्य में सफलता और कीर्ति प्राप्त हो। हे संकटमोचन देव हम आपको प्रणाम करते हैं। ।। जय बजरंगबली हनुमान जी ।।

Jay Shri Ram !!

Hanuman In my Mind

Puranas venerate Hanumanji as Vayu Putra, son of wind god. According to Vedas, space gives rise to vayu, air, from which agni, fire, is born. If vayu is the cause and agni, effect, then vayu is the father, and agni the son. Hence, in Vedic thought, Hanumanji embodies fire. To say someone is 'on fire' implies that they are working with great inspiration. Fire is the source of heat, energy, dynamism, and brilliance - all qualities Hanumanji exemplifies. Moved by Sitaji's sorrow, Hanumanji set Lanka ablaze. Known for his deep empathy, he is unable to witness the suffering of others. This is why, in Sankat Mochan, devotees pray: "O Hanumanji! You have performed great deeds for gods. You hold the key to all solutions. Please remove my troubles at once. Who does not know that you are Sankat Mochan - remover of all obstacles?" Even Meghanada's Brahmastra could not harm Hanumanji, for Brahma had blessed him with immunity. Yet, to uphold the weapon's sanctity, Hanumanji pretended to fall unconscious, allowing himself to be captured. This was a strategic ploy - as he was dragged through Lanka's streets, he carefully mapped the entire city. In a sense, Hanumanji was the original creator of GPS. Ravan was livid at this audacious monkey who had destroyed his beloved Ashok Vatika. He demanded the monkey's identity. With calm resolve, Hanumanji replied: "By an iota of whose mighty power you were able to overcome the entire creation, and whose beloved spouse you have stolen, I am his messenger." He urged Ravan to abandon his arrogance, surrender to Ram, and return Mother Sita. Ravan, mocking him, sneered, "So, we have found a wise guru in this monkey." Enraged, he wished to execute Hanumanji, but Vibhishan intervened, reminding him that executing an emissary violated statecraft. Instead, Ravan ordered that Hanumanji's tail be set on fire - a punishment meant to humiliate and destroy him. However, excluding Vibhishan's house, all of Lanka was set ablaze. It is, therefore, incorrect to say that Hanumanji burnt Lanka. It was the aggressive act of igniting his tail that caused the fire. The lesson is profound: Those who set another's home ablaze will one day see their own engulfed in flames. Hanumanji merely gave Ravan and people of Lanka a glimpse of Ram's might, urging them to reflect on consequences before it was too late. Lanka symbolises materialism, a world where pleasure, wealth, and power reign supreme, crushing spirituality in their wake. Just as rakshasas sought to annihilate anything that threatened their indulgence, our selfish ego seeks to suppress our spiritual inclinations. Today, people hoard wealth yet contribute nothing to the very land that nurtured them. The burning of Lanka represents destruction of material attachments, which the ego clings to - at dharm's cost. Sitaji is Goddess Lakshmi - essential for our sustenance. But Ravan's mistake was that he wanted to possess her solely for himself rather than share her abundance. Unhappy at being bound, Lakshmiji burnt Lanka completely. In contrast, Hanumanji sought her as a mother, earning her blessings of immeasurable strength and ability to generate wealth - for the service and sustenance of others. Hanumanji's worship destroys undesirable tendencies and burns away our negativities and attachments to the world of matter, within and without. This is his eternal glory.

Rightly compared the difference between devotional love & possessive love

God Ram never thought Ram & Hanuman are different, 

Lakshman was closest to Ram but was possessive about him. Lot of incidences show the possessive love gets converted into wrath. 

The events during

God Parshuram appearing , Wicked Surpanakha nose cutting & many more during battles...

Pure devotion is something which is bliss & only two of them can understand....In this world blinded by fallacies, hope this knowledge will awake some eyes....

Great Interpretation indeed.....Jai Shree RAM !!

Adding my thoughts further

Ram Setu

Is a way you allow spirituality in your mind, if you will be able to build that by chanting RAM it will awaken you for ever & allow to kill the demons ruling your mind.

Lanka Dahan

Lanka resembles mind full of Moha, it is difficult to stay away from it

Lanka resembles everything which leads to Tamas - Including thoughts of greed, lust, jealousy & possession. It also makes you weaker with fears of insecurity, vulnerability & defame.

So if Lanka Dahan is happening it is a lift & it should happen because Dahan is done by tail of hanumanji which symbolizes 3 shaktis of tridevis - Dahan will happen when necessary.

When Dahan can happen ?

Saraswati - If you have abundance of knowledge but you still overlook it.

Laxmi - if you have abundance of wealth but you greed for more and only want it for yourself.

Parvati - You have all the power , but you misuse it more, rather than to evolve your spirit.

Ravan binded all above and misused them and so dahan was evident.

Ram Rajya

When God re-enters your mind & starts ruling it which will bring back Right virtues, Importance of Bonding and True love...And most importantly Self-control and discipline on your thoughts.
