Guest guest Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 As more and more Devotees gather for the Shivarathri Festival, Kulwanth Hall is filling up faster by the minute which has led to people standing for a Divine glimpse of our Lord. Today evening as Swami came for Darshan asked Mr Poppet to speak. Bhajans were stopped as Mr.Popet spoke wonderfully, but there was another great Surprise as Swami started His Divine Discourse to the absolute delight of everyone and also spoke for nearly an hour. The Salient points of Swami's Discourse were : 1. Swami wonderfully spoke about the importance of Indian culture. Swami said that Indian culture is a great and shining example for the world to follow. The most important aspect of Indian Culture is the is the chastity of Women. 2. Swami also spoke about self confidence and continously stressed that if anyone has faith in himself, he could achieve anything in life. Swami quoted the example of Abraham Lincoln and his mother, Swami wonderfully stressed that if our Mother's word and deed it will always lead to success. 3. Swami said that even though people talk of meditation, it is actually third in the ladder. The first two being Concentration and Contemplation. Swami said that Concentration is like the Level in the Primary school, Contemplation in the High school and Meditation in the Degree college. To attain that degree, one has to work hard and cross these 3 steps. After singing melodiously Hari bajana bina Sukha...Swami further said that whatever be the name one has to keep chanting the Divine name as it is only that will lead you to all success. God will bless you with that success in life. The wonderful evening session ended at by 7.15 PM. Om Sai Ram Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy! Invite them now.
