Narada Rishi and the leela of many Krishnas

 
Krishna

Great Sage Narada wished to see how Lord Krishna managed his 16,000 wives found that he was present in each palace engaged in different activities. He greeted Narada in each of these palaces and also touched his feet and spoke to him on many occasions. Sage Narada understood the import of what the scriptures say about the Lord being omni-present not merely as an impersonal energy field but as a person through his countless personalities. The lucky ones like Bhakta Narada who manage to see this reality behind the veil of Maya are the highest among devotees. 

May Lord Krishna, the darling of the Gopis, the friend of Arjuna and the husband of Mata Rukmini, bless us all with a longing for service to his lotus feet! 

Jai Shri Krishna! Jai Bhakta Narada!

The Hanuman Bhakta who 'digested' LSD



Hanuman

In the late sixties and early seventies, when the hippy movement was its peak, several spiritual seekers from Western countries experimented with drugs. LSD was a popular drug in those days. Ram Dass (Richard Alpert) who used to experiment with these drugs had often wondered  if a yogi would tell him something about the effect these drugs had on mental states.

LSD is known for its psychological effects which can include altered thinking processes, closed- and open-eye visuals, synesthesia, an altered sense of time and spiritual experiences, as well as for its key role in 1960s counterculture. It is used mainly as an entheogen, recreational drug, and as an agent in psychedelic therapy. LSD is non-addictive, is not known to cause brain damage, and has extremely low toxicity relative to dose.[3] However, acute adverse psychiatric reactions such as anxiety, paranoia, and delusions are possible.

When Ram Dass met his guru Neem Karoli Baba, he felt his mind go blank but the guru asked for the 'medicine'. Ram Dass remembered that he had a few tablets of LSD on him. One tablet was enough of a dose for one person. Baba took nine hundred milligrams, a very strong dose for a beginner.
Ram Dass was shocked. He waited for a reaction. Minutes passed and then it was an hour and nothing happened. The 'medicine' had not ruffled the yogi at all!

May Neem Karoli Baba, the devotee of Lord Hanuman, bless us with a longing for the divine feet of Lord Rama! Jai Siya Ram! Jai Hanuman Dada! Jai Neem Karoli Baba ki!

Maa Kalika's leela in Dehradun

Maa Duraga

Anandamayi Maa, who was widely considered an avatar of Maa Adya Shakti, agreed to request by sevadars to be allowed to hold a bhandara the following day.It was Easter. The year was 1942. The next days the sevdars discovered that there were over 500 people to be fed when they only had enough provisions for four hundred. They approached Shri Maa and told her that the since the market was far off, maybe they could postpone the bhandara by a few hours.

Maa said it was already noon and people would be hungry. The sevadars should ensure that all devotees were fed.  ''Make arrangements for serving them now. The meal should be over within an hour and a half. Not one should go away without food. Leave this body alone. Report only if there be any shortage. Otherwise, do not come to me." I was present there. We all felt uncomfortable. But Mataji said with perfect composure, "Go and do as you are told. Do not forget, none should go hungry. Don't be unhappy. God's service must be done with a cheerful heart," was Maa's aadesh.

The food at the Bhandara turned out so tasty that devotees reported eating more than they were used to. They ate their fill. After an hour and half passed, the devotees went to Maa, who smiled and asked them how it had been? 

Mataji asked, "What about your provisions?" One of them burst out, "More than five hundred people have eaten and yet there is enough left for two hundred more." Mataji said gravely, "This is very good. Not a particle should be wasted. Let those who come or are staying here be fed again in the evening. Everything must be consumed today. If it cannot be eaten here, let it be given to those outside who are hungry."


May the divine leelas of Mata Anandamayi ignite the spark of love for the lotus feet of Maa Tara who is the boat across the sea of Maya. Jai Maa!

Shri Radhe Maa - Kalbhairava, the supreme court of ancient Nepal





The 12-foot Kalabhairava idol at Hanuman Dhoka in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal was discovered by king Pratap Malla in the Seventeenth Century. It is believed that anyone who lies before this idol dies.

Therefore locals when they wished to settle disputes, often sought the intervention of Lord Kalbhairava, who presided as the chief judge.

Kalbhairava is a fierce aspect of Lord Shiva.

May Lord Kalbhairava, the fierce Lord of Kathmandu bless all his devotees with strength, wisdom and love for all beings!

Jai Baba Kalbhairav! Har Har Mahadev!

Why Maa's Tara's son Bamakhepa moved around naked

Tara Devi

Baba Bamakhepa (1837–1911), the great tantric master and devotee of Maa Tara would move around naked in the smashan where he worshipped Maa Tara. When he was asked why he moved around naked the great saint said, "My father (Shiva) is naked; my Mother (Maa Tara) is also naked. So I am practicing that. I have no shame and no fear.''

May the example of Bamakhepa, guide us to the lotus feet of Maa Tara whose is the star that guides seekers to liberation!

Bamakhepa Maharaj ki Jai! Jai Maa Tara!

Maa Kalika, Mata Anandamayee and the mad man - a leela

Kalika Devi

The year was 1948, when a mentally disturbed man entered a garden where Mata Anandamayee (30 April 1896 - 27 August 1982), who was widely revered as an avatar of Mata Amba, was granting darshan. The man ordered all women to cover their heads but they paid him not attention. He then went to Maa and asked her to cover her head and she agreed. All the other women copied Maa. 

The man sat in the men's section for some time and got up to leave. Maa asked a devotee to give the mad man fruit as prasad. The man took it and then flung it at Maa in anger. The orange hit Maa. Upset devotees caught the man and took it out of the satsang area and roughed him up. Maa told her devotees that they were wrong to beat up the man.

The man returned the next day completely sobered. It turned out that he had been healed of his condition after he threw the fruit at Maa. He had come to express his gratitude. "You should not stop anyone who comes to this body," she said, referring to herself. 

Jai Mata Kalika! Jai Anandmayee Maa!

Why is Hanuman considered the ideal bhakta?

Lord Hanuman

Lord Hanuman is most pleased when he is addressed as Ramadasa or the servant of Lord Rama. He possesses Utsaham (Enthusiasm) Sahasam (Courage) Dhairyam (Fortitude) Buddhi (Intelligence) Shakti (Strength) parakramam (Accomplishment), and uses these sterling qualities to serve the lotus feet of Lord Rama. 

This is why anyone who aspires to be a devotee of  Lord Rama is advised to emulate the example of Lord Hanuman! 

Bol Siya-var Ramachandra ki Jai! Bol Ramadasa Hanuman ki jai! Bolo sab santan ki jai!

Pavahari Baba and the thief who became a sadhu


Swami Vivekanand

A thief entered the kutia of Pavahari Baba, a great saint and devotee of Lord Ramachandra, who lived in the 19th century. As he made a bundle, Pavahari Baba woke up. The thief began running leaving stolen bundle behind but Pavahari Baba was faster. He caught up with the thief and offered him the bundle, and said, 'My God, please keep what you have taken.' The thief was too shocked for words and fell at the feet of the saint.

With the blessings of Pavahari, the thief became a sadhu and gradually gave up the ways of the world and became a sanyasi. Swami Vivekananda, was a great devotee of Pavahari and even considered accepting as a guru.

Babaji taught that one should lay like a dog at the feet of the guru if one wishes to progress in spiritual life.

May the example of Pavahari Baba inspire the love of God within us! Pavahari Baba ki jai!
