KATVANGHA BHAKTHI

[Guest guest]

Once upon a time, there lived a mighty emperor by name KATVANGHAN. He was a true

devotee of Bhagavan. His mind was fully occupied with the divine leela’s of

Bhagavan. He considered himself as a humble servant of Bhagavan. He did his

role of king, very well. All admired his righteousness.

 

He did his role without the feeling of I’ ness and my’ ness. It is Bhagavan who

only does all the good things to the mankind. We are just tools in his hand.

With our body as a tool, Bhagavan does good things to the mankind. Katvanghan

constantly meditated on the KARUNYAM- divine mercy of Bhagavan, for keeping him

in such a high position.

 

In this world, there is a war between Righteousness and Evilness. This war goes

from time immemorial. Once there broke a war between Deva’s and Asura’s.

Katvanghan was called by deva’s. They asked for his help. Katvanghan assisted

them in the battle. There was a ferocious war between deva’s and asuras’s.

Katvanghan fought bravely and defeated asura’s. Many asura’s were killed. The

left behind ran off from the scene. Deva’s won the battle.

 

Deva’s gave a boon to Katvanghan. He asked the deva’s “Please tell me, my

lifespan that is left out”. To this deva’s replied, “you are left with a

lifespan of only one MUHOORTHAM time”(1 muhoortham = one and half hours).

Knowing that, his life is going to wind up within one and half hours time, he

felt astonished. With the deva’s help, he took the divine plane called Vimanam

and immediately rushed to

Bhoolokam - Earth. The Devalokam (place of Deva’s) is not for Mukthi. Whenever

any one gets a curse or boon, he will be sent only to earth.

 

The earth is the place filled with Satvic state (Sathva Gunam). Here, we can get

the darshan of Sathguru. With Sathguru’s blessings and through Nama

Sankeerthanam, we can attain mukthi, quickly.

 

Knowing this, Katvanghan came to Bharatha Bhoomi (India). As per Bhagavatham,

Bharatha Bhoomi is the place for karma, bhakthi and here it is filled with

Sathguru’s divine grace, leading to mukthi. The other places in the world are

called Bhoga Bhoomi (place for enjoyment), where people can enjoy their life

merrily in unwanted things and finally end up in frustration and restlessness.

 

In the Bharatha Bhoomi, Bhakthi is more. Here the entire places are filled with

the vedic vibrations and the vibrations of Sathguru’s Nama Sankeerthanam. With

the blessings of Sathguru and through Sathsangam (listening to the divine

leela’s of Bhagavan), once mind can be cleansed and thereby fill it with

Bhakthi.

 

Katvanghan reached a lonely place and started meditating on the divine feet of

Bhagavan. He left all the unwanted things from his mind. He removed the

sentimental feelings of emperor, protector of mankind etc., and the bonding in

the form of father, mother, children, relatives, friends, subjects, noble

citizens, and considered himself as a humble servant to Bhagavan. When all the

bonding were removed, his mind become one with the Bhagavan, and he attained

mukthi.

Katvanghan attained mukthi, in just a very short period of one and half hours.

By listening to Sathsangam and through Nama Japam (chanting Radhekrishna) with

the divine blessings of Guruji Amma, we can also remove all our bonding which

make us restless. We can attain true happiness devoid of sorrows and

sufferings.

 

People are busy and they don’t waste their time. They are busy in studying,

searching for job, settling in marriage life, looking after children, earning

huge money, building mighty emperor in the form of bungalow, car, wealthy man,

owning many titles and crowns, certificates and medals etc., all goes…all goes

…all goes with time…But are we caring for time? The time goes day by day

without our knowledge and control, and one day everyone becomes old. But no one

is ready to accept this cold fact. Let us surrender ourselves to the divine feet

of Bhagavan and seek the blessings of Guruji Amma, to lead a life worth living,

which can lead us to Bhagavath Bhakthi and Mukthi.
