‘Sadhana and Rashtra-Raksha’ Camp by ‘Puri-Peetha’

Destruction of Era of Technology is necessary for making the country conducive for spiritual practice. It has been said that during the ‘Sandhi-kaal’ of present age, Bhagavan Kalki would incarnate. Considering today’s era of science, Bhagavan Kalki’s ‘vaahan (vehicle)’ should have been a jeep or car and weapon should have been a gun as per the times. Some people may feel that the sages and seers must not have had knowledge of modern times; therefore, Bhagavan Kalki must have been shown with His ‘vaahan’ as ‘Ashwa(horse)’and he is shown as carrying bow and arrow; but it is not so ! In fact, earlier very powerful weapons were used as compared to today’s weapons; but those weapons have disappeared in present times. There were weapons like ‘Brahmaastra’, ‘Pashupataastra’, ‘Aagneyaastra’ etc. All these divine weapons could be used with recitation of certain ‘mantras’ and were made from ‘anulom-vilom’ of ‘Gayatri’ mantra. With only ‘Pashupataastra’, Bhagavan Shiva could destroy the whole Universe. When He offered it to Arjuna, He advised Arjuna to use it with certain limitations. The importance of divine weapons as explained in Hindu Dharma, is now realized by western countries like USA; but they are making fool of India by selling modern weapons. We should remember that since Bhagavan Kalki is shown with horse as His ‘vaahan’ and ‘bow-arrow’, it is indicative of end of era of technology during ‘Sandhi-kaal’ of today’s age.
Explaining why a king should be righteous, Pujya Shankaracharya said, “When a king has control over his mind and desires, when he is righteous, it results in expansion of Earth; whereas when a king is unrighteous and evil, the earth contracts herself as a snake contracts itself on entering hole and again expands after coming out of hole. It has been stated in Holy Scriptures that earth is made of 7 islands but owing to present unrighteous politics, only one island is remaining now.”
Regarding own ‘sadhana’, Pu. Shankaracharya said, “Since my childhood, after performing ‘puja’, I used to ask God for poverty and pray to Him to not give me any money. I did not even know its meaning at that time. Even today, I breathe only for welfare of people and if I am offering water as ‘abhishek’, that every drop of water is for welfare of this country !”
“Deities also have gross and subtle body; e.g. the subtle body of Deities is ‘tantra’ and ‘mantra’ is their ‘Kaaran Deha (Casual body)’ same is about ‘yantra (e.g. Sri-Yantra)’. The Universe is governed by certain rules. Those, who look at the Universe in expansive manner, realize the rules of Universe; like earlier our Sages and Seers learnt and in modern times, scientists like Newton realized the rule of gravity. To find expansive theory in all basic Principles like ‘Pruthvi (Earth)’, ‘Jal (Water)’, ‘Fire’,’ Vaayu (Air)’ and ‘Aakaash (Ether)’ is a ‘tantra’ which are to be presented in the form of mathematics; later the same helps to create ‘yantras’.
For purification of governance and ‘Vyaas-Peetha’, it is necessary to undertake spiritual practice as per Guru’s guidance/ by obeying Guru – Pujya (Dr.) Charudatta Pingale
Jagatguru Shankaracharya Swami Nishchalanand Saraswatiji of ‘Puri-Peetha’ invited Pujya (Dr.) Charudatta Pingale of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti during the camp held by ‘Puri-Peetha’ at Ratanpur, Chhattisgad on ‘Sadhana and Rashtra-Raksha’. While discussing the topic of ‘Purification of governance and ‘Vyaas-Peetha’ and nature of harmony’, Pu. (Dr.) Charudatta Pingale said in his guidance, “If we think only about materialistic conditions by forgetting Dharma, then we will have to face decline of governance. We are also not inclined to practice spirituality and have control over our mind and body; selfish rule overshadows ‘Vyaas- Principle’ and it results in fall of ‘Vyaas-Peetha’. If we undertake spiritual practice under Guru like Pujya Shankaracharya and always propagate it, purification of both is possible.”
The main drawback of today’s democracy is taking decision depends upon majority votes and is not based on righteousness and unrighteousness. Elected representatives, therefore, take decisions based on majority votes which may not be acceptable to Dharma or ‘Vyaas-Peetha’. We need to hand over the reins of this country to such person who under the guidance of Shankaracharya, promotes patriarchy in the interest of people and works for spiritual progress of society. Adya Shankaracharya set up 4 ‘Peethas’ for purification of ‘Vyaas-Peetha’; similarly, today there is need to purify ‘Vyaas-Peetha’ under the guidance of powerful ‘Govardhan Peetha’ working under the learned Guru.
