Life, Creativity, Prayer :

-



To,


All Members,


Life is a series of experiences and tests and rewards, all sewn together to be made into a garland for the Lord.

Now it's up to each individual to make the garland of beautiful flowers or thorns.



Creativity comes to the extent that the intellect is humble.

Such an intellect is able to create something new.

Because humility is a form of love, it brings the enthusiasm for creativity and the ability to bring newness in everything that is done.



The most effective prayer is to ask God to endow your with the strength and wisdom, love and compassion, to go through life and its experiences with grace, humour and positive surrender.


Swami Udit Chaithanya

In the same way, there is a very dire and demoniacal tradition called vendetta in a part of Italy called Sicily. If one member of a family has been injured or killed by a member of another family, the first family will not rest until they have taken revenge. Then the other family retaliates; it can carry on from one generation to the next—an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. This is also continuing perseverance, but it is dire, destructive in nature, tamasic. It is the same principle—never give up—but its results are destructive in nature. Again, in the same way, the human too can also be persevering—in the pursuit of one’s desires, the circumstances one wishes to create for oneself. And they may say, "Whatever the gurus may say, whatever our ancestors said, whatever illumined sages and seers may have said, that may apply to some antiquated age, but now it no longer holds good. At that time it might have been very wise, but times have changed. Things are d...

  Chinmaya Mission: On the morning of 28 June 2025, Chinmaya Vibhooti came alive with divine festivity as it hosted Jeevan Hai Sangeet, a grand celebration marking the 75th birthday of Swami Tejomayananda, fondly known as Guruji. The atmosphere, blessed with cool rains and lush greenery, beautifully mirrored the devotion and joy that permeated the three-day event envisioned by Swami Swaroopananda, Global Head of Chinmaya Mission. Devotees from across the globe gathered in love and gratitude. In the inaugural session, Guruji humbly acknowledged the outpouring of affection, urging everyone to extend that love to one another, echoing the Chinmaya Mission pledge—“We stand as one family…” He reminded all that Self-Knowledge is the most precious wealth, fulfilled through Bhakti, and expressed deep gratitude to “2G”—God and Guru—whose glories must be sung with devotion. The first day featured a powerful story-theatre performance Avatarana by Ramaa Bharadvaj, exploring the divine origins o...

5. Tantra Sadhana-3. The Sadhaka first meditates upon the Devata or Deity and then arouses the Devata in himself. He then communicates the Divine presence thus aroused to the Yantra. When the Devata has been invoked into the Yantra by the appropriate Mantra, the vital airs (Prana) of the Devata are infused therein by the Pranapratishtha ceremony. The Devata is thereby installed in the Yantra. The materials used or acts done in Puja are called Upachara. They are sixteen in number, viz., (1) Asana (seating of the Devata); (2) Svagata (welcoming of the Devata); (3) Padya (water for washing the feet); (4) Arghya (water for ablution); (5) Achamana (water for sipping); (6) Madhuparka (honey, ghee, milk, and curd); (7) Snana (bath); (8) Vastra (cloth); (9) Abharana (jewels); (10) Gandha (perfume); (11) Pashpa (flowers); (12) Dhupa (incense); (13) Dipa (light); (14) Naivedya (food) and Tambulam (betel); (15) Nirajana (Arati); and (16) Vandana (p...
