Govindaram Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Hare Krishna There was a Hindi film called Bhagavan Dada (comedy), in which this person was acting as a guru, so I think it means 'who is Guru' (Spiritual Master), Dada meaning authoritative, or it could mean somebody thinks of himself as Bhagavan..not sure really.

livingentity Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 tell us more about your inquiry. What is the context which you found this name or phrase etc? Is this what you are referring to? http://www.dadabhagwan.org/ Sometimes info is as easy as your search engine. P.s. don't ask what the site is about because I am not going to read it. I do not take chances anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 On a June evening in 1958 at around six o'clock, Ambalal Muljibhai Patel, a family man, contractor by profession, was sitting on a bench of a busy platform number three at Surat train station. Surat is a city in south Gujarat, a western state in India. What happened within the next forty-eight minutes was phenomenal. Spontaneous Self-realization occurred within Ambalal M. Patel. During this his ego melted totally and completely. From that time onwards he became completely detached from all thoughts, speech and acts of Ambalal and he became a living instrument of The Lord for salvation of the world through the path of knowledge. He called this Lord, Dada Bhagwan. ‘, This Lord is fully manifest within me,’ he told, to all he met. Furthermore he added that, ‘ the same Lord, Dada Bhagwan exists in all living beings. The difference between you and me is that in me, The Lord has expressed fully in me and in you he is yet to manifest. ' Who are we? What is God? Who runs this world? What is karma? What is liberation? Etc. All the world's spiritual questions were answered. Thus nature offered absolute vision to the world through the medium of Shree Ambalal Muljibhai Patel. http://www.dadabhagwan.org/new/introduction/dada-intro/dada-bhagwan.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Govindaram Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Hare Krishna Another Krishna Bhakta /images/graemlins/grin.gif I have seen Niruben on TV, talks about marriage etc, I like Krishna talk more, than 'women talk' /images/graemlins/smirk.gif No disiplic succession, it seems so I'd just offer my respects, and pray to Bona-Fide Guru in-line from Lord Krishna. The site seems very nice and truthful at first glance, so I like it. /images/graemlins/smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2003 Report Share Posted September 6, 2003 i think that jains accept him as bhagavan or enlightned/arihanta. he does not understand gita/krishna. he has criticized krishna. he says krishna was obsessed with the desire of being worshipped. that is why krishna says 'worship me". i lost respect for him, the blind who leads the blinds. jai sri krishna!
