Guest guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 My dear friends and like minded persons I am recollecting Shri Aswamedhayaagam days of 2005. It was February 2005 when myself and my wife Sow Padmavathy started thinking of performing Holy Shri Aswamedhayaagam as per the directions of Saints. But then the procedural aspect and other matters relating to it was not known to us. When we expressed our eagerness to perform the Historical Shri Aswamedhayaagam, people made fun of us; some Peethadhipathis discouraged us and laughed at us; and it was all looked like fooling our ideal to do this Holy Historical forgotten ritual of ancient times for Social Cause and for the support of Mankind. It was a tough time and I made a mention in my letters some time ago that I was forced to shed tears each day for 270 days plus before the Holy Yaagam.  From Bheemli/Visakhapatnam to Sringeri, from Kerala to Kashmir, which ever place I visited seeking blessings and wishes from saintly people, I was not encouraged nor my proposal was heard. Leave alone encouragement, there was no purpose to discourage any spiritual act shouldered with all courage not only by me, for that matter any other individual too. Some Gurus of different cults did not even given me an opportunity of meeting them, and some other Gurus desired to support their individual peethams financially through this Holy Yaagam which was not to my taste and by and large, it was a torture to think of a Social Cause and shoulder such huge responsibilities individually and it was a practical lesson. .  At that point of time, I had an opportunity of visiting Mantralayam in Kurnool District of A.P along with some of my friends and well wishers.  I was hesitating to invite the Swamiji of Mantralayam Mutt – Sri Sri Sri Susamendra Swamiji – just keeping in view of all bitter experiences I had till then.  At the time of our visit, Shri Swamiji was himself giving Teerthams and Asir Akshataas to the devotees who stood in a long Que. The Invitation was taken to him by a friend of mine. Sri Swamiji stopped giving Teertham to the devotees, kept up his eye brows after reading the first page of the invitation. He called me and in Kannada language, “I am not keeping good health and I am aged, I desire to give my eyes an opportunity of seeing the sacred fire in the Holy Shri Aswamedhayaagam and let my eyes be purified so also my life, please continue with the activity and May Lord Shri Raghavendraswamiji bless you to complete this task most successfully as per the desired linesâ€. I shed tears at the Lotus feet of His Holiness. I never expected such encouraging words and that was the first ever shower of rose water sprinkled on me which gave me a fortified spirit and all courage to go ahead with the program in spite of all odds and what not.  Myself and my wife owe a lot to the Living Lords who inspired us;  the first and foremost being His Holiness Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi  Maha Swamiji of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham, the second one our Guruji for Sri Vidya Upasana – His Holiness Jagadguru Shri Shri Shri Ganesananda Bharathi Mahaswamiji, and His Holiness Shri Shri Shri Susamendra Swamiji of Shri Mantralayam Mutt,  to complete the historical event – as a person from Brahman community ( No Brahman sanatani so far appears to have performed this Historical Event, wrote Shri Syed Akbar, an eminent Journalist who wrote about Shri Aswamedhayaagam prior to the date of its commencement in leading news papers),     Before and After Shri Aswamedhayaagam – all events are recorded and they are kept in a blog for the purpose of next generation. Miss Marianna Pinzi – an Italian Lady received her doctoral degree on this subject and she presented all the data relating to this event.  Myself and my wife Sow Padmavathy were thrilled to receive the ailing Swamiji of Mantralayam Mutt whose condition was very bad during the time of Shri Aswamedhayaagam. He could not even walk, still he refused to go round the venue on a car, and he got down from his car and walked all the way enquiring each event and worshipped the Holy Horse himself. He declared on the stage that Vaikuntha – the Home of Lord Vishnu was no where else than at the Yaagam venue. That was the degree of respect to the Holy Yaagam by the Sacred Swamiji. Both myself and my wife are in deep grief on hearing that His Holiness Shri Shri Shri Susamendra Swamiji passed away last Saturday. We are yet to recover from the shocking news.. The fact remains that we consider that we are fortunate, for, we enjoyed our physical body when the great personalities were on this Holy Earth; we consider that we are more fortunate since we received blessings from the Holy Swamijis for undertaking and performing of the Historical Shri Aswamedhayaagam. Thus they granted us all opportunities to live forever as long as Shri Aswamedhayaagam is respected and remembered.  HARA HARA MAHADEVA DR P V SESHA SAI ASWAMEDHAYAAJI Adhyatmika Ratna, Vedanta Visarada, Sahasradhika Yaaga Karta Dr P V Sesha Sai Aswamedhayaaji Vice President (India) – World Brahman Organization, # 303, Vijetha Sanjeevani Apartments, 6-4-8, Opposite Gandhi Hospital, Musheerabad Main Road, SECUNDERABAD 500380, Tele fax 040 27541613, Landline 65581368, Cells 9440422613, Websites: www.ashwamedhayaagam.org, http://aswamedhayaaji.com, E mails: shodasisai, 14th April 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
