On 6th May 2010, our Sadguru Shree Aniruddha Bapu spoke about Ramrajya. In which he meant that the values and ethics that existed during the reign of Lord Rama should be reinforced within us. It actually meant that Bapu wants to mould us on the same basis and structure that the people of Ayodhya experienced. They were truly happy and contented. That was a state wherein the subjects of that society were not sad, helpless, miserable etc. instead they were much strong and powerful by mind, body and soul.

Similarly, Bapu wants us to walk the same path so that we too are able to encounter A Beautiful and Blissed Ramrajya @ 2025. For the same, Bapu gave us many instructions which are being followed at various stages.

Ø  A step towards Ramrajya starts with the announcement of Aniruddha’s Institute of Language and Linguistics which would be taken care by Our Nanda Aai.

Ø  Bapu just doesn't preach but has a master plan of everything ready. As soon as, this was announced, Nanda Aai had begun her work formally.

Ø  It is said formally because we all know that Aai had already started to work at this aim quiet a long back when she decided to help her Aatmabal Sakhis by empowering them and further polishing their English skills at various levels.

Ø   Aai and Bapu are one and the same. Both of them run towards one goal applying different strategies which are unique but are still weaved together.

On 6^th November, 2013, held a grand inauguration ceremony of the first successful release of the first set of books titled “Sai for Me” from the series “Happy English Stories” written by Dr. (Mrs.) Nanda Aniruddha Joshi (our beloved Nandai). With the presentation of the books, a remarkable entry was made by the Booktionary Publication House in the field of publishing.

Ø  On its release P. P. Bapu spoke whole heartedly on the importance of English. Through various instances and by each spoken word he thoroughly convinced how important this language is for each one of us.

Ø  English has become the universal language and hence it is considered as an International Language.

Ø  Every person who is alive on this earth loves our mother tongue. But that doesn’t mean that you deny to converse in any other language or if necessary learn any other language.

Ø  It would be sheer silliness if one just keeps blabbering in his mother tongue.

Ø  As it is important that each of us should change/ progress as per the time, situation. Or else, there would be stagnancy.

Ø  For progress which is clear and consistent, change is the only solution.

Ø  And yes, By all means being able to Converse in ENGLISH Fluently is the need of an hour.

Ø   When we say Converse, it has 4 aspects to this:

A.      Reading

B.      Listening                                       

C.      Speaking

D.      Writing

When a person is able to master these 4 tools of any language then only it is assumed that the person can converse fluently.

Ø  Bapu and Aai are always there to help us at each step.

Ø  Aai helps us develop and enhance our skills of English through Pratyaksha which is daily newspaper started by our beloved Sadguru.

Ø  Aai herself selects the word of the day for the word building section. In which we have to learn to make maximum words from one single word.

Ø  This again is another educational game which is important to study any language.

To sum it up, any language is only mastered by Practice. And practice makes us perfect. So let’s keep practicing with the loads of ways that Bapu has given us. Learning English is going to be most important for all of us. With the world becoming so tech-savvy with the prime usage of English everywhere, it wouldn’t be wrong if someone says that being fluent with it is nothing but THE NEED OF AN HOUR.

Get Married to English- P.P. Bapu.

Ambadnya Truptiveera Thakurdas.

Introduction

1.  अंबज्ञता म्हणजे आदिमातेविषयी श्रद्धावानाच्या मनात असणारी व कधीही  न ढळू  शकणारी असीम कृतज्ञता.  (Ref – Matruvatsalya Upanishad)

Ambadnya means the feeling of a Shraddhavan of firm and constant gratitude towards Mothi Aai (Aadimata) in all conditions.

2.       The English dictionary clearly defines gratitude as the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.

3.       Marci Shimoff, a famous author says that “Gratitude is the best way to bring more into your life”

 (Ref – The Secret, Best Seller Book Published in 2006)

4.       The great scientist Albert Einstein revolutionized the way we view time, space, and gravity. From his poor background and poor beginnings, we would have never thought of what he has achieved. Einstein knew a great deal of The Secret (Gratitude).

He said, "Thank you" hundreds of times each day. He thanked all the great scientists whom he had followed and thanked them for their contributions, which had enabled him to learn and achieve even more in his work, and Einstein eventually became one of the greatest scientists who has ever lived. (Ref – The Secret, Best Seller Book Published in 2006)

5.       Dr. Aniruddha D. Joshi (Bapu) has given us the Master key for all the problems  i.e.  “AMBADNYA”.

6.       The word Ambadnya is not just gratitude but more than that. It is a feeling of gratitude for the life given to us by our Mothi Aai (The Ultimate Mother). It is a technique by which our gratitude reaches to Mothi Aai even by remembrance.

7.       This is the Secret given by Bapu for a complete happy and successful life. This is a mechanism to get everything that we wish for.

When should you say Ambadnya?

1.       Thanking Someone:   Say Ambadnya instead of Thanks. This will benefit you as well as the other person.

2.       Daily Activities: When you get up in the morning, while going to sleep at night, Starting new things, after and before having food, During exams, Any difficulty etc.

 In short we should say “I Am Ambadnya” (Mi Ambadnya Aahe) whenever we are doing anything in our life.

3.       Whenever you feel lonely say Ambadnya. At that moment itself, loneliness will get vanished as your Sadguru himself will be standing with you, is the promise given by Bapu.

4.       While passing on road if I come across something bad or see an accident, say Ambadnya, for that thing could have happened to you as well. Also it will help other person who is in the problem.

5.       When something wrong happens against us.

6.       We have many desires in our life. Some things get accomplished and some do not. By saying Ambadnya, the things which are apt for me will definately start happening in my life.

7.       Bapu has promised to his children, whoever says I am Ambadnya every day after completing his Vratapushpa till year 2025/ till you are alive, will take every birth with Bapu and Bapu will be with him in his every birth.

Who is a Shraddhavan?

 “परमात्मा आमची काळजी घेतो, परमात्मा आमच्या प्रगतीचा विचार करतो हे सर्व जाणून जो कोणी भक्ती करतो व प्रेमपूर्वक सेवा करतो तो श्रद्धावान.” This definition was given by Samir Dada in Adhiveshan 2013.

Samir Dada clearly tells us that Shraddhavan is someone who does Bhakti and selfless seva with the belief that Paramatma (Bapu) is our Guardian who nourishes us and takes care of us.

Our beloved Bapu has given the 9 Saman Nishthas for every Shraddhavan (श्रद्धावानांच्या ९ समान निष्ठा). The same are as follows:

1.    Shrimad Purushartha Grantharaj.

2.    Hari Om

3.    Gayatri Mantra

4.    Established Truth of Re birth or Karamacha Atal Siddhanta

5.    Tripurari Trivikram Chinha

6.    Mother Ganga and Goumata

7.    Attire for Shraddhavan for Religious Occasions

·         For Men: White Lungi, White Sadara Or White Shirt

·         For Women: Saree or Punjabi Dress

·         White Uparana is mandatory for both men & women

8.    Govardhan Udi

9.    Aniruddha is our Best Friend, Father and Savior.

(Reference: Shrimadpurushartha Granthraj, Volume 3, Anandsadhana, Pg. No. 305)

The one who follows or makes a genuine attempt to follow the above said points is a True Shraddhavan.

Let us now see what Bapu expects from Shraddhavans.

P. P. Bapu through his Agralekh dated 30th August 2009 has given ९ मापदंड (Things that Bapu likes and dislikes) for every Sharddhavan. These are the mandatory factors which are to be followed.

१. आन्हिक दररोज दोन वेळा करणे.

(Aanhik to be done Twice in a day).

२. आन्हिक, रामरक्षा, सद्गुरुगायत्री, सद्गुरुचलीसा, हनुमानचलीसा व दत्तबावनी तोंडपाठ असणे व पुस्तकात न बघता म्हणता येणे. चार महिन्यांतून कमीत कमी एक रामनामवही लिहून पूर्ण करणे व रामनाम बँकेत जमा करणे.

(You should have Aanhik, Ramraksha, Sadguru Chalisa, Hanuman Chalisa, Dattabavani by heart and should be able to say it without referring the books. Atleast 1 Ramnaam Book should be deposited once in 4 months)

३. बरोबरच्या व हाताखालील सहकार्‍यांशी उन्मत्तपणे व उद्धटपणे न वागणे. सहकार्‍यांची किंवा हाताखालील व्यक्तींची चूक झाल्यास त्यांना जरूर त्याबद्दल ताकीद द्यावी परंतु अपमान करू नये.

(You should not treat our peers or subordinates in a harsh or rude way. They should be shown their mistakes but without insulting)

४. उपासनांच्या वेळेस त्या स्थळी असणार्‍या प्रत्येकाने ‘आपण उपासनांच्या वर आहोत किंवा आपल्यास उपासनेची आवश्यकता नाही’ असे वर्तन करू नये.

(During Upasana, you should never show/feel  that  you are greater than the upasana  or you are so great that you do not need upasana)

५. बोलण्यापेक्षा, बडबडीपेक्षा कोण भक्ती व सेवेच्या कार्यक्रमात किती जीव ओतून सहभागी होतो, हे माझ्या दृष्टीने महत्त्वाचे आहे.

(More than discussions and Gossips, being involved in Bhakti and Seva is more important.)

६. ह्या विश्‍वामध्ये कुणीही मानव ‘आपण एकमेव अव्दितीय आहोत व आपली जागा दुसरा कुणीही घेऊ शकत नाही किंवा आपल्यासारखे कार्य करू शकत नाही’, असे म्हणू शकत नाहीव असे कुणीही मानू नये.

(You should never feel  ‘I am the greatest in this world and no one can take my place or No one else can do things like me’)

७. श्रद्धावानांच्या नऊ समान निष्ठा त्याला मान्य असल्याच पाहिजेत व त्याच्या आचरणातही असल्याच पाहिजेत.

(You should believe in the 9 Saman Nishta and it should be a part of your conduct)

८. चूक झाल्यास चूक सुधारण्याची तयारी पाहिजे.

(You should always be ready to improve yourself or rectify your mistakes)

९. परपीडा कधीच करता कामा नये.

(You should never hurt someone or be the reason for someone’s problems)

Continuing with the above points Bapu also said, “पावित्र्य हेच प्रमाण’ ह्याच मूलभूत सिद्धांतानुसार प्रत्येकाचे आचरण असले पाहिजे व वरील नऊ गोष्टी ज्याच्याकडे नाहीत, तो माझ्या जवळचाच काय, परंतु दुरान्वयाने संबंध असणाराही असू शकत नाही, हा माझा ठाम निश्चय आहे. तुमच्या हातात मी आज ‘मला काय आवडते व काय आवडत नाही’ ह्याचा निश्चित मापदंड दिलेला आहे व हे मापदंड वापरूनच माझ्याशी निगडित असणारे प्रत्येक कार्य व यंत्रणा राबविले गेले पाहिजेत“.

Now we need to decide where we stand and what we are doing to stay at HIS LOTUS FEET because जे आले ते तरूनि गेले... जे न आले ते तसेच राहिले...
