Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 JaiSrimannarayana ! Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha !! Humble Pranamams To Lotus Feet of HH, I, Kalyan Rapolu, am a student studying in US. Adiyen starts every day by listening to Divine messages of Geetha Jyothi. Most of the times I feel that all the things I am doing are of 'prathibandhakams' to reach God. After listening to HH's messages in Geetha Jyothi I came to know that all the things we do should be offered to God and we should think that all the deeds are done by him through us. We are just instruments for doing things. I also came to know that we should eat good food to have good thoughts. But being a student I am not able to eat good food properly. Sometimes we eat outside in restaurants because of weakness of our manas. Please advise me how to refrain myself from doing things which God asked us not to do. As I informed before , by the Grace of Lord Srimannarayan and HH, we are conducting Saamuhika Vishnu Sahasranamam on every alternate sundays amongst students of the University. I came to know that HH is not coming to US this year. Actually we planned to invite HH when HH comes to Newjersy. We are a bit disappointed. I hope HH Sri Swamiji will show 'anugraham' on us by coming to our house atleast next year. Adiyen Daasoham.

WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING WITH YOUR FRIENDS THERE IS WONDERFUL SERVICE. KEEP DOING THAT. AS YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE CONDUCTING 'ACHARYA SEVA YATHRA' DURING THE WHOLE YEAR, FIRE WILL BE THERE WITH US TO WORSHIP DAILY MORNING & EVENING, TO DO THE HOMAM WITH RAMAYANA, WE COULD NOT COME OUTSIDE INDIA OR TRAVEL FAR DISTANCE AREAS. NEXT YEAR, YES, WE TRY TO SEE YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS THERE AND SPEND SOMETIME WITH YOU THERE. AHARA SUDDHI, CLEANLINESS OF THE FOOD, HAPPENS WHEN YOU COOK ON YOUR OWN. BUT FOR YOU IT IS NOT POSSIBLE AT ALL, RIGHT! THAT IS FINE. YOU SELECT ONLY GOOD VEGITARIAN FOOD FIRST, THEN THE MOMENT IT REACHES YOU, OFFER IT TO GOD, FEEL HIM WITHIN YOU, REALIZE THAT YOU ARE OFFERING IT TO HIM. AND THEN DEDICATE IT TO HIM THROUGH THE PASSAGE PROVIDED TO YOU, THE MOUTH. PEOPLE CALL IT EATING FOOD. WE CALL IT OFFERING IT TO GOD. THEN MANY DO:SHAS, POLLUTIONS, WILL GET CLEARED, BEFORE YOU EAT IT. YOU CAN NOW TRY ON THIS RIGHT! OUR MANGALASASASNAMS TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS. =CHINNAJEEYAR= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
