Mangalasasanams of HH Sri Swamiji

 

The spiritual retreat organised by JET USA INC. in Lake

Geneva, has been a grand success and more than 80 families were

blessed in the week long Spiritual Camp by HH Sri Sri Sri Tridandi

Chinna Srimannarayana Ramanuja Jeeyar Swamiji. It was organised from

6th July to 12th July.

 

The day used to begin at 4.30 AM with Yoga, Pranayama,

Surya Namaskaras and then meditation, Prathasmaraniyam etc., graced

by HH Sri Swamiji.

Then after Se:va:ka:lam and Thi:rtthago:shtti, Bhagavad

Prasadam was served and then first session was conducted. During the

first session, Ma:ndu:kyo:panishad was graced by HH Sri Swamiji with

wonderful projector presentations to make the concepts clear and

attractive. Then Introduction to Vedic Literature was discussed. In

the afternoons, Learning Bhajans in the style of Classical Music,

learn how to chant Manthras and then Gi:tha:rttha Sangraham of

Yamunacharya graced by HH Sri Swamiji.

 

In the evening Sri Vishnusahasrana:ma Stho:thram chanting

was conducted and after a:ra:dhana, interactive session on the

lessons and also on the general topics was conducted. The day ended

by 10.00 pm for all the camp participants.

 

Every one enjoyed the camp to quench the thirst of

spiritual knowledge and got enlightened with the greatness of our

Vedic Tradition that led the world in the path of glory towards the

ultimate goal.

 

One and all wished to have the camp for more number of

days and also every one expressed to have such camps very

frequently !! It was a great dream one can ever think of that came

true... felt every one. For the first time ever in the history such

a camp has been organised in which families came and participated in

a spiritual retreat. Aged devotees (above 80's) those who couldn't

understand English also enjoyed the subject through the enchanting

voice and impeccable expression of HH Sri Swamiji, throughout the

classes and what can we say about those who really could understand

little or more English !! HH Strived through out the day conducting

all the classes to make participants feel elated and rejuvenated

every minute. To be in HH Sri Swamiji's presence itself is a

blessing and that too in the class.... OH.. inexpressible... There

are no words to express that feeling of elevated spirits. One should

really enjoy !!

 

A number of wonderful discussions on the Realities of this

Nature, Soul, God, their relationships, their nature, creation,

authenticity of various scriptures, Various practices, festivals

etc., went on aggressively which were perfectly answered by HH Sri

Swamiji quoting real time examples to the depth of the understanding

of the human mind.

 

Every one was amazed to know about our culture our Vedic

tradition, Srivaishnava tradition, that Bhagavad Ramanuja brought

into light, to bring the whole of the living beings under the

umberella of one family "vasudhaiva kutumbakam".

 

There was a sort of wonderful understanding and

satisfaction observed in all the members who attended the camp.

Everyone listened to HH Sri Swamiji, who conducted class like

Hrushi:ke:sa, where every one was caught spell bound for hours

together sitting in their places forgetting themselves lending their

minds and hearts to HH Sri Swamiji, enjoying the nectarian voice,

filled with devotion and Love, revealing the greatness of the Lord

and His various attributes and Li:la:s.

 

Every one was of the opinion that they have learnt great

lessons that transformed their thoughts and purified them with the

Divinity poured down by our Acharya HH Sri Swamiji. This is only a

beginning said HH Sri Swamiji. They felt that they might have missed

a lot.. if they haven't attended this camp and it is a liftime memory

that elevated their spirits to the heights of Pure Divinity.

 

The camp was organised in a beautiful natural serene

atmosphere. Some classes were conducted in the open place and many

were conducted in the class room like environment. As the whether

was cool and occasionally rainy it has been a fantastic experience to

be in Divine atmosphere under the Spiritual umberella of HH Sri

Swamiji.

 

May many such camps be conducted and every individual be a

part of it to finally enjoy the purpose of this birth, under the

Divine guidance of our Acharya HH Sri Sri Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji.
