Swamiji, Hope you are enjoying the US trip.We atlanta people miss you a lot.Thanks a lot for the wonderful satsang.I wanted to convey some thing different. Change is necessary. But continuity is essential.India has a rich culture & heritage. The invaluable veda mantra has been with us for thousands of years. Slowly and steadily, the WEST has understood the significance and have started learning it. You can just log on to the following site and see for yourself how nicely and perfectly Americans are chanting Veda Mantras (Rudram). Slowly and steadily we have also started copying the west culture. Many of us are now interested in Pizzas, Jeans, Drinks, vulgar dressing, Late night parties, etc. etc. But they seem to have liked our invaluable culture. Very strange but true. Let us all preserve our values and traditions. Going to http://vimeo.com/channels/vedaunion#12339787 you can listen to One of the temples in Naperville,Illinois,Chicago,USA is the Hindu Temple of Greater Chicago,commonly known as Lemont Temple.The main deity in the temple is Sree Rama with other deities like Ganapathy,Siva,Murugan.Lakshmi,Navagrahas etc.There are regular poojas. Going to http://vimeo.com/channels/vedaunion#12339787 you can listen to the local Americans chanting Rudram. Om Namahshivayah!! Geetha/Atlanta

Dear Geethaji, It is excellent that somebody can copy our culture. But we should understand that our culture is a real science of conscious energy. It is our duty to teach this wisdom to many. One thing you can do is editing my talk recorded there and post to as

Swamiji namaskaram. I am confused with the statement given. What does it actually mean that the body energy transcends with the mind energy and how does it happen? For the doubt i asked earlier is about women having periods.. even the mind is pure but the body is actually impure due to periods. So we cannot visit the pooja room? and the other doubt is stated by guruji that when the mind energy becomes strong so at that time when we reach periods can we still visit the pooja room as you have mentioned that we can go anywhere. And how will the mind energy become strong? Another new doubt is i am aware that the self and the body is different. and very well understand this discrimination. But when the mind is always swaying around god are we allowed to read the scriptual or sacred taxts like gitas etc… during monthly periods?

Swamiji:

Dear Yani, Please sincerely ask this question to yourself, “who thinks I am impure”? Is it the body thinking or the mind thinking? Once you ask, you will get the answer that it is the mind that is thinking and the mind has freedom to think any thing. (like when

Regarding Gayatri Mantra; While walking can I chant this mantra? or there is any special condition or timing is there to chant this mantra? Appreciate your quick response, with respect. mohandas

Swamiji:

Dear Mohandasji, You can chant Mantra any time, any where provided your mind is sincerely involved in what you are doing. Once you are clear, your mind will automatically chant even without your instruction. Hariom!

respected swamiji, when a mother is pregnant her thoughts will be connected with the child. so a child’s character will be starting from his mothers’ womb. is it true swamiji? if the mother didn’t had good thoughts whether it is possible to make the child in a good way after 3 or 4 months of his birth. i am asking this doubt because iam planning for adopting a child. but many around me are telling its a foolish decision and the children in orphanages will be left by there mother if she don’t want the child. so the thoughts will be negative. so child will have that problem? is it true swamiji?

Swamiji:

Dear Lekshmi, Please go ahead with your adoption; before that ,do meditation at least for 10 to 15 days and when you are instructed to adopt do it. You can give what you didn’t get. Adopt a very small baby if possible because medical science says the growth of the

Swamiji, What is the meaning of “self awareness”? Best Regards Soman

Posted by Soman padmanabhan on August 19, 2011

Swamiji:

Dear Somanji, Awareness is that because of which we can know about our own mind and the thoughts. Only when you learn to observe, you can see the freedom and strength of your mind. HariOm!

Swamiji:

Dear Meeraji, Actually you have misunderstood my statement. When you listen to the whole talk, you will understand that “any thing we do mechanically, that means without mental involvement, has no use at all in spirituality”. You can chant any mantra any where at any time provided you bring your

Dear swami, A ladily doubt, can meditation be done when a women attains a monthly periods? second doubt which should we do early in the morning first nama japam, meditation or pranaym? Thank you

Posted by Karithyani on August 19, 2011

Swamiji:

Hariom, Your mind belongs to the ever conscious energy called Atma who is the real God. So your mind is always pure but you can imagine that you are impure (as Christians believe they are sinners). Lord Krishna says “imagining or calling oneself as impure or sinner itself is a

Dear Swamiji, Anandakodi pranam.Hope you are fine even in the tight shedule in USA. Few days back in our temple ie chakkamkulangara Siva temple there was a bhajanothsavam.The famous Covai jayaram,manjapra Mohan and one Thyagarajan were the singers.Its started from friday evening and saterday full..up to midnight and sunday by noon after lunch every thing over.This was celebrated as thamil tradition.Sunday’s main programme was Subrahmanya valli devasena’s wedding.They were telling that in EKM dist. this is the first time that celebrating this wedding.The rituals r very interesting.But Swamiji,boyond that,as knowing the inner meaning of all these things it was a wonderful experience.So many times I had gone in a meditation mood.I really wondered about our ancient Rushis’forsight.How they organised or designed these type of performance to make us the feelig of jeevathma paramathma samyogam within us. I bowed down at there feet and also touch your feet several times in my mind because only your teachings made me to experience all these things.By the grace of God one co-incident also was there.On the second day one peacock came there and sat under the banyan tree and flew away.Before and after that nobody had seen a peacock in that area. Swamiji, praying for your aayurarogyasoughyam and eagerly waiting for you at Guruvayur. Hariom.

Swamiji:

Dear Bhaminiji, I can understand your inner feeling; when rituals and spiritual awakening are brought together, the feeling of oneness is created. Let us spread this truth as our Gurudakshina to our Guruparampara. I have some more programmes going on here in USA. Hariom!

Dear Swamiji, Can we visit this place where daily routines of inmates are performed?

Posted by Karithyani on August 18, 2011

Swamiji:

Hariom, I am not clear what you mean. If you mean that visiting pooja room etc. during your monthly period, then better avoid because the energy from your body can influence the surroundings. Once your mind energy becomes strong, then you can go any where. In our country Mani Sanyasins
