Swami Nigamananda and Bhakti Marga
The Bhakti Movement itself is a historical-spiritual phenomenon that crystallized in India
during late antiquity. The notion of 'Bhakti' (loosely translated as devotional love to God) prevailed in
the Indian subcontinent from antiquity. A nascent consciousness of what 'Bhakti' constitutes was
already to be found in the earliest Vedas. Texts such as the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavata Purana
clearly explored Bhakti Yoga or the Path of Devotion as a means to salvation.
It was spearheaded by devotional mystics (later revered as Hindu saints) who extolled
devotion and love to God as the chief means of spiritual perfection. In devotional service there is no
motive but to give pleasure to the beloved. As Chaitanya Mahaprabhu says “asusya va pada-ratam
pinastu mam adarsanan marma-hatam karotu va”: Oh Lord, You may never embrace me, or You
may trample me down with your feet. Or You may never come to me, so that I become
brokenhearted. Still I love You. The ultimate method to know God is through Bhakti-Marga. In
Bhagavad Gita Krishna confirms this: ‘Bhaktya mam abhijanati yavan yas kasmi tattvatah’: Only by
devotional service can one understand the Supreme Lord. The purpose of religion is to train people to
love God. In this age of Kali, an age of disturbance, anxiety and misery, people are not interested or
do not have time for long discourses or any other spiritual ritual. In this age, one must follow the path
mentioned in Vedic literature-that is chanting the name of God. Lord Chaitanya re-introduced this.
Our Thakur has given us the Abhay mantra “Jayaguru”. He has explained the power of the mantra on
numerous occasions and also how easy it is to attain Him by simply chanting the mantra. Initially,
conscious effort has to be made to recite the mantra but after a certain period the mantra
automatically remains awakened in the heart and mind at all times, even in sleep. God is the source of
supreme pleasure. Man has forgotten that: Atma is part of Paramattma. We can reach the stage of
transcendental bliss by remembering His name. Our Thakur has mentioned that his goal was to inject
happiness to others and he advised his followers and disciples to be happy in all situations. The
founding of mathas and ashrams were only for infrastructural support for the inmates for he would be
happy with his disciples, devotees anywhere, even under the shelter of a tree.
The Bhakti movement began to spread to the North during the late medieval ages when North
India was under Muslim domination. In the period between the 14-17th centuries, the movement
swept through Northern India initiated by a loosely associated group of teachers or 'Sants'. Sri
Chaitanya, Vallabhacharya, Meera Bai, Kabir, Tulsi Das and other mystics spearheaded the Bhakti
movement. The movement was spontaneous and the various mystics had their own versions of
devotional expression. Their teachings were that people could cast aside the heavy burdens of ritual
and caste and the subtle complexities of philosophy and simply express their overwhelming love for
God. This period was also characterized by a spate of devotional literature in vernacular prose and
poetry in the ethnic languages of the various Indian states or provinces. The Bhakti movement coexisted peacefully with the other movements in Hinduism. It was initially considered unorthodox as it
rebelled against caste distinctions made and disregarded Brahmanic rituals. In the course of time,
however, owing to its immense popularity among the masses (and even royal patronage) it became
'orthodox' and continues to be one of the most important modes of religious expression in modern
India. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486 - 1534), was the pioneer of the Bhakti movement. He was an
ascetic Hindu monk and social reformer in 16th century. He was born in the district of Nadiya,
Bengal, India (present-day West Bengal). Five hundred years later Swami Nigamananda was born in
the same district and he followed the footsteps of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in showing the Bhakti
Marga as a path to achieve God and salvation. A great proponent of loving devotion for God, bhakti
yoga, Sri Chaitanya worshipped the Lord in the form of Radha-Krishna. Gaudiya Vaishnava
10
followers revere him as Krishna Himself descended in the mood of Radharani. He was also known as
Gauranga (Sanskrit for "the fair / golden one") due to his skin complexion, as well as Nimai due to
being born under a Neem tree. Sri Chaitanya revived the divine love which Sri Krishna presented to
the world through his divine consorts and as depicted in the Srimad Bhagavatam. Swami
Nigamananda presented an easy methodology for a common man to enjoy this divine love. He
reminded his followers again and again that he as Sadguru was eternal and after renouncing the
physical world, he would reside in their hearts.
In Varanasi, Swami Nigamananda was jolted when Goddess Annapurna pointed towards his
incomplete knowledge, even though he had mastered Gyana, Tantra and Yoga sadhana. The missing
element was Bhakti and to gain knowledge in bhakti he had to pursue bhava sadhana. Swami
Nigamananda realized that only Gouri Ma, whom he had met with his Gyani Guru Sachidanananda,
could fulfill this shortcoming in him. Gouri Ma had attained Sidhi through Prema. Swami
Nigamananda set out for her ashram and there Gouri Ma became his Guru for Prema Sadhna. She
explained to him that Purushottam is gender neutral. Purushottam is neither masculine nor feminine.
He is the amalgam of Purusha and Prakriti or in other words Gyana and Bhakti. He is Sadchit-True
Knowledge and Ananda-Pure Bliss. He can be revered as Guru and also embraced as beloved. She
guided him towards the basis of Vedic Bhakti as propounded by Rishi Sandilya in the Vedas. She
explained to him the fact that Bhrahma, due to His unlimited love, manifests Himself as mother,
sister, wife, friends and family members to unconditionally love him and make numerous sacrifices
for Him. To reciprocate this unlimited and unconditional love of Brahma, projected through
numerous human forms, is the source of Bhakti. It was here that it dawned on Nigamananda that God
is the guiding light of his life. In her discourse, she mentions Saiva Agama, Vaishnav Darshan and
also Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. She reasoned with him that the mind is content if God is realized
through Gyana but the heart remains empty. For the heart’s solace and for total contentment God has
to be experienced as a friend, beloved and as other forms. Purush and Prakriti are two parts that make
a whole. This discourse had a great impact on him and his Gyana paved way to Bhakti. He became
one amongst the few to reach the highest level in Bhava Sadhana. He developed a great love for the
universe and the creation. He advised his followers to love him and claim inheritance to their Guru’s
spiritual property. Spirituality would come to them automatically through their love for him. As a

The Oasis
Sadguru is the embodiment of knowledge and He is the ocean of love. This combination is
unique and very special.
In order to understand Guru Tattwa clearly one has no option but to be aware of differences
that exist between Guru (preceptor) and Avatar (incarnation of God). The formless and all pervading
God incarnates himself with a wonderful human form to present the unknown theory of spirituality to
the human race. When God comes, all other opinions either gets merged into the new theory (Tattwa)
presented by him or become subdued to provide scope for the new theory to get established in the
human society and in the religious world. As the incarnation comes directly, His performances on
earth are simply great and Divya (divinely beautiful). But He comes to earth through the same
process as a human life originates. However, during His tenure on earth, He establishes a new
spiritual tradition by overcoming the shortcomings of the already existing spiritual trend. Although
He shows supernatural powers for the accomplishment of his mission on the earth, except a few
awakened people around Him the true divinity remains unknown to the ordinary people. The advent
of incarnation is for the mass and he rarely bothers for any individual’s spiritual upliftment. He,
through His own life style, through adoption of certain principles in His own life, establishes the new
spiritual theory on earth and that when done, departs from the earth without any delay. This fact has
been clearly mentioned by SriKrisna in Srimad Bhagavat Gita,
Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya Glanirbhavati Bharata,
Abhyuthanam Adharmasya Tadatmanam SrijamiAham
Paritranaya Sadhunam Vinashaya Cha Dushkritaam
Dharmasanthapanarthaya Sambhavami Yuge-Yuge.
which means ‘whenever there occurs a decline of religion on earth, in order to correct the trend, to
protect the pious minded people, to annihilate the wicked, I incarnate myself through different ages’.
Surely He keeps His promise.
On the other hand, a Sadguru rising from the dust reaches the highest plain of spirituality
through personal endeavor to benefit the individuals and the mass as a whole. Unlike Avatar, a
Sadguru is very much concerned with individual’s spiritual upliftment. His sole purpose while here
on earth and hereafter is to guide the disciples to attain salvation or to help the individuals to reach
their spiritual objectives. Being established on ‘Supreme knowledge’, a Sadguru leads a life with a
child’s simplicity and rarely activates His supernatural power, thus making it difficult for people to
recognize him as the Savior, as the Divinity manifested. Sadguru being the Self Realized person is
equal to Brahma, the ‘Supreme Existence’. This fact has been clearly mentioned in Mandukya
Upanisad as “Brahmavit Brahmeiva Bhavati”, which means ‘one who realizes Brahma becomes
Brahma’. This fact of Mandukya Upanisad is amply supported by the science world which says ‘A
piece of iron being attached to a powerful magnet discards its previous properties and behaves as a
magnet and there remains no difference between the two’.
Sri Gurudev is the oasis in the vast stretch of sand in a desert. The oasis saves the lives of the
lost travellers in the desert providing shade, food and water, so also Sri Gurudev saves His sheltered
subjects from the never-ending cycle of birth and death, disease, happiness and sorrow. We are all
travellers of the never-ending road in this world leading to really nowhere. Sri Gurudev decides the
objective of our lives and smoothly guides us towards our destination by earmarking the road and
demarcating the course of action in our lives.
In this modern age, the age of freedom, one may ask, “What is the necessity of a Guru - a
human being who is like any other human being, to guide one spiritually? Have not the saints spoken
enough? Have they not described vividly in their literary creations about the objective of human life
29
and the methods to reach that objective? Then why worship a human being as Guru and obey all His
commands? Is not it ridiculous?”
Swami Vivekananda, the worthy disciple of the great master, Sri Ramakrushna Paramahansa
has once said, “By reading books we are being deluded to think that we have become knowledgeable.
But when the time of action arrives we find ourselves so woefully deficient. This is because the
books cannot create that vibe in us. Only another person who has realized the Self can create the vibe
within us. He who creates the vibe is Guru and he who receives it is Shisya (disciple)”. (Selection
from Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda).
The present age might have become very advanced, obviously the minds of the people have
become more intelligent, but the necessity of Guru has neither become less nor the importance of the
role played by Guru in one’s life has dwindled. A child has to learn alphabet from its Guru, the
teacher, the scientist has to work with guidance of another scientist who is his or her Guru. Even
those who want to steal have to accept someone as their expert or teacher. And if someone wants to
learn music, dance or any other form of art, he or she has no option but to learn it from an expert in
the field, accepting him or her as the Guru. So in case of spiritual performance, which is extremely
difficult and complex by nature, it is imperative that one has to accept someone as Guru. But in the
world of spirituality one is declared as Sadguru when one is established in the highest form of
knowledge or ‘Supreme Knowledge’, which is attainable only through Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
Not only by the Sanatan Dharma or Hindu Religion, the Guru Tattwa is accorded highest
importance, but also other religions have accepted this fact with equal importance. In Al Quran it is
mentioned that prophet Muhammad, the messenger of Truth, taught his wife Khadijah, his servant
Alli and Abubaker, the message He received from Allah. In Holy Bible, Saint Thomas and Saint
Mathews have addressed Jesus Christ as ‘Oh Teacher’. Sariputa, the prominent disciple of Lord
Buddha, had approached him as teacher, whenever he wanted to clear his doubts on certain points. In
Sindh and Hindustani culture, the word Pir and Mir are very important. These only mean preceptor
and disciple. In Sufism, Guru Tattwa is also very important, the words are Murshid and Talib.
Hence it is proved that Guru Tattwa, the role of Guru, is accepted by all the religions and all
the sects of the world as very important and indispensable.
Now let us find out the place of Guru Tattwa in the theory of creation as presented by ancient
scriptures.
It has been clearly stated by the scriptures that prior to creation of the universe, there was
nothing but Nirgun Brahma who alone existed. In order to enjoy the inherent divine pleasure stored
abundantly within Him, a desire to be manifested as ‘Many’, surfaced within Him. “Aham bahusyam
prajayate: I will be manifested as many. The moment He desired so, He became Sagun Brahma, i.e.,
Brahma with attributes or, in other words, He transformed himself as Sachidananda: the combination
of Sat (Truth), Chit (Consciousness) and Ananda (Bliss). But knowing well that once the
transformation occurs it would be virtually impossible for the created parts (Anshas) to become
‘whole’ again, He, in order to guide these Anshas to become whole again, became JagatGuru and
then the process of creation of the universe commenced. JagatGuru is like the vast sea of saline water,
which cannot be utilized for the purpose of drinking or for irrigation. But Sadguru or Human Guru on
whose pure, clean mind the great desire of JagatGuru gets reflected can help the human beings or
Anshas to attain emancipation and become whole or ‘Purna’ again. As a matter of fact, there remains
no difference between Sadguru and Jagatguru. That is the reason for which it is said ‘Mannath Sri
Jagannath, Madguru Sri Jagatguru, Madatma Sarva Bhutatma’.
All the opinions of the spiritual world are divided into three categories, such as Advaita
(Monism), Dvaita (Dualism) and Dvaitadvaita (combination of Monism and Dualism). Later one can
find many subdivisions of these three schools of thought. All these schools of thought attach prime
importance to Guru Tattwa.
Sri Sankaracharya, the propagator of Extreme Monism, Mayavad, has stated ‘Advaitam
sarvabhuteshu Nadvaitam Gurunangsaha’. This means, it is true that the entire universe has mono30
existence, but never, ever, apply this principle in case of Guru. In His famous literary creation ‘Vivek
Chudamani’, the first sloka is dedicated to His Gurudev, Sri Govindapada. It says
“Sarvavedantasidhhantgocharya Tamgocharam, Govinda Paramanandam Sadguru Pranatosmihum.” I
bow to Govinda whose nature is Bliss Supreme, who is Sadguru, who can only be known from
import of all Vedanta and who is beyond the faculty of speech and mind.
Santh Tulsi Das, the prominent Dvaitavadee, pays His respect to His Gurudev, Sri
Naraharidasa, in His famous book ‘Sri Ramacharit Manas’ as “Vandaami Guru Pada Kanja Ravi
Kara Nikar”, I bow to the lotus feet of my Guru who is an ocean of mercy and is no other than Sri
Hari himself in human form and whose teachings (words) are beams of the sun for expelling the
condensed darkness in the form of gross ignorance.
In holy books of Sikhism, such as Guru Granth Sahev and Japajee, Sri Guru is described as
‘Akala Purukh’, it means Guru is beyond the flow of time and beyond space. It is needless to point
out that Guru Granth Sahev is accepted all over the world as Vani Brahma.
One may ask why not worship God or His incarnation, and why worship Gurudev and what
benefit one is going to derive from that? Well, Santh Kaveer has replied to this question through His
Doha, ‘‘Tirth gaye phal ek, Santh Mile Phal Char, Sadguru mile phal anek Kahe Kaveer Vichar”,
visiting holy places and taking dip in holy water avails the performer with one good result,
companionship with saints bestows four good results, but surrendering unto Sadguru bestows
innumerable good results on the disciple.
Again Lord has settled this issue in Srimat Bhagavat.He has stated that this body is the boat to
help one cross the ocean of worldly life (Bhavasagar) cycle of birth, death, old age, disease. “A nave
Guru Karnadhar, Muhin Anukula Sameer” (Oriya Bhagavat). Guru is to handle the rudder of this boat
(to move it in proper direction), and He (Lord-God) is the gentle breeze (to push it forward). He who
does not take advantage of this, his (and her) performances on earth are equal to suicide of the self.
The world has seen many Sadgurus, who are still respected as God or Brahma. Among all the
Sadgurus of the world, someone has carved out a very special place as Sarvabhouma Guru. He is
none other than our beloved Thakur, Srimat Swami Nigamananda Saraswati Dev.
The world of spirituality had never come nearer to Sarvabhouma Guru prior to the advent of
Swami Nigamananda on earth.
Few from among the spiritual performers could ever reach such height and Nirvikalpa
Samadhi (the plain of ‘Absolute Reality’). Those who reach there never return and those very few
who return from that plain of Niralambapuri, do so by the desire of God to fulfil God’s sacred and
special desire on earth. Thakur Maharaj is one of those ‘very few’ who had returned from that plain
of Absolute Reality. When sage Vamadev returned from Nirvikalpa Samadhi, he said “Aham Manu,
Aham Surya”. Sri Sankaracharya, after His return, declared “Na Aham Ramani, Na Aham Ramana,
Chidananda Rupam, Sivoham Sivoham.” Swami Nigamananda returned from the plain of Absolute
Reality being enthroned as Guru. Prior to He becoming Guru the world has known AdiGuru
(Vasisthadev), Lokaguru (Sri Sankaracharya), but not Sarvabhouma Guru. Thakur Maharaj became
Sarvabhouma Guru. That is the reason he has said, “No one would ever return empty handed from
my doorstep because I am the Guru”. Sarvabhouma Guru is the Guru of the universe, now what to
speak of cast, creed, color, sex, nationality and religious affiliation. He categorically has said
pertaining to spiritual attainment, “You don’t have to become a converted, do not have to change
your religion, just do adopt the method I have presented and you will definitely reach your
destination.” We do not find any Guru who has said so; obviously He was firmly established on the
important factor of ‘Harmony of all religions’.
Swami Nigamananda is a revolutionary saint of the spiritual world, who has never saddled
with an orthodox or dogmatic mind. Being a ‘Saraswati’, He broke the age-old tradition and initiated
women into sacred Monkhood. When he initiated the devoted Hemalata (later Maa Jogamaya), He
visualized Mother of the universe standing near her, encircling her neck with Her arms. Is there any
doubt that this action of His was approved by the Divine Self?

When He accepted or rather whenever he accepts some one as His disciple, He never
considers the eligibility of the person. He has said, “If I will put you into test (of eligibility), none
among you will ever become successful.” It is true that none of us are eligible to become disciple,
and devotee of such a highly elevated Soul. He is the ocean of compassion. Out of compassion only,
He has sheltered us under the protective arena of His lotus feet. We fail to find words to express our
gratitude.
The relationship between Guru and Shisya can never be evaluated with any of the worldly
criteria of relationship. Guru loves His disciples more than His own life and tries unceasingly for
their spiritual upliftment. Our beloved Thakur Maharaj has said, “You are my God. I have forgotten
God for sake of you people.” Do we have to elaborate more than this on Guru-Shisya relationship?
One can only imagine but can never decide the quantum of love He harbors for His disciples.
Once he has said, “Though I am Jeevanmukta Purus, still I will not accept emancipation as long as a
single person among you is left behind without salvation”. We certainly fail to find another Guru who
has so daringly declared like our Thakur did. No doubt He is the greatest of the greats.
Explaining the mode of Sadhana for emancipation He had said to Sri Jangyeswar Biswas and
Smt. Saraju Devi (the couple that was His first initiated disciples), “You don’t have to do anything,
just love me a little.”
Oh Thakur! You have said this; but can we really love you? Can the finite selves, with all the
limitations, love the purest of the pure infinite consciousness? Can we ever be able to love you like
Mother Sudhansubala? No Thakur, we lack the power of firm resolve, we lack the requisite mental
and physical strength.
Your grace is our only property, prop and support without which we cannot take a single step
on the hazardous path of spirituality. There is no alternative or substitute to ‘your grace’. We offer
our body, mind, speech, and soul to you. Please accept our humble offering. We extend our hands
towards you; please, Thakur, hold our hands and lead us wherever you want to. We pray to you to
shower your grace on the entire human race irrespective of cast, creed, color and nationality. Sri Sri
Thakur Charanaravinde Samarpanamastu.

Our Karma
Shree Shree Thakur came to this human society to teach us how to achieve the absolute truth
and attain salvation. Thakur knew that it is very difficult for the human being to do any kind of
sadhana in the current era of Kaliyuga where people do not have physical and mental strength and
desire to perform the difficult task of sadhana. He has come up with this simple way of sadhana, i.e.,
just being a true human being.
How does one become a true human being? The basic qualities which will help us in being a
true human being are truthfulness, honesty, dutiful and compassionate attitude. Though it sounds
easy, it is a very difficult task. Thakur has said we all need to act under the direct guidance of Him by
serving others thinking that they are our own.
From the moment we are born, we depend on so many things and so many people to be able
to live in this society. This makes us to be indebted to the society. When we say society, it is not just
the living creatures that are around us but all the living and nonliving creatures. So, it is very
important that we give back while we are taking away from the society. This giving back, i.e., yajna
is the integral part of an ideal human life.
32
By nature, the soul is always active. It is our duty to direct every action in the proper
direction. During various stages of our lives we perform different tasks and duties to live and grow
up. And that becomes our responsibility at that point of time. As we grow up, our responsibilities
change. How we fulfill that responsibility is considered to be our Karma. And Karma leads us either
towards the way of achieving absolute truth or away from it. When we are under the guidance of a
Sadguru, it is certain that any time we deviate from His determined path He brings us back by various
means.
We should perform the prescribed duties as set forth for a householder. Such activities
gradually cleanse the heart of a mundane man and free him from material contamination. One will be
able to achieve chitashuddhi (purification of inner-mind) by performing the prescribed duty without
any materialistic desire. As we perform the duties prescribed by Shree Shree Thakur we should not
deviate from the truth by anticipating any specific result or reward. We should religiously perform
our duties for His satisfaction, and that way we can remain free from bondage. When the duties are
performed without any materialistic desire it becomes devotional service. By performing that
devotional service one expands his own self and that leads him or her on the path of spiritual
realization.
We should act very diligently under the direct guidance of Shree Shree Thakur to fulfill His
desire. This practice will not only save us from the reaction of work, but also gradually elevate us in
the transcendental loving service of Thakur. One who does not have any attachment for the result but
acts on behalf of the absolute can engage himself in all kinds of activities, but is completely
nonattached.
Thakur has asked us not to teach or advise anyone what is good or bad unless we have
implemented it in our own lives. He has asked us to share our feelings through bhaba-binimaya
(exchange of our spiritual feelings) among us so that we all can benefit from each others experience
and knowledge. Each of us has a great responsibility to others; therefore we should be very
conversant with Thakur’s teachings and spiritual codes. We should not only try to acquire the
knowledge that is required to fulfill His wish, we should also realize the eternal feeling and emotion
when we carry out His instructions. Shree Shree Thakur has asked us to teach ourselves the ideals
(mata) of Acharya Shankara by acquiring proper knowledge and the ideals (patha) of Mahaprabhu
Gouranga Dev by performing every action with utmost love and devotion.
After getting shelter at the lotus feet of Shree Shree Thakur, I have been greatly influenced by
Thakur’s teachings. Even though I have not been able to implement his instructions into my
household life upto His satisfaction, I feel extremely fortunate to have his guidance and inspiration in
my life. He is there with all of us within the Nigama family and outside whether we can feel his
presence or not. Life means a lot more when we look beyond the materialistic boundary and our own
self and our immediate families. It gives me a huge sense of security knowing that Thakur is there
always with us and will always be there with us in this life and life beyond.
In Bhagavat Gita, Lord Shree Krishna has said,
tasmadasaktah satatam karyam karma samachar
asakto hyacharan karma paramapnoti purusah
- Srimad Bhagavat Gita 3/19
(Therefore, without being attached to the fruits of activities, one should act as a matter of
duty, for by working without attachment one attains the Supreme.)

2008 Sammilani Venue – Burnsville
Introduction: With grace of Shree Shree Thakur Maharaj, the members of America Saraswata
Sangha have been celebrating the annual sammilani from 2002. The first two sammilanis were held at
Gyan Diwedi bhai’s residence. As the member count started to grow, the sammilani venue was
changed to Charlotte, NC in 2004, and was held at Hindu temple for three consecutive years. Due to
logistics difficulties at the temple, it wasn’t feasible to accommodate all Bhaktas at the temple. So,
most of the bhaktas agreed to search for a place that would allow everyone to stay close by and enjoy
the Sammilani. With lots of research on the internet and discussion with different organizations, we
discovered “High Pastures Christian retreat center”, located at Burnsville town.
Burnsville is a place to enjoy natural beauty and a taste of well preserved mountain life. High
Pastures offers group/individual who wishes to take the time from the hectic pace of everyday life to
grow closer to nature and God. High Pastures is truly a place of sanctuary for the soul.
2007 Sammilani was the first non-Christian event held at this center and with an approval of their
board of directors.

High Pastures’ History: "A Place to Meet God" is all about High Pastures.
In 1958, Elizabeth Motsinger (Betty), seeking a hideaway in which to seek God found this
place. She had been struggling for years to know if God actually exists, and, if so, whether He could
be known. Betty attended spiritual retreat Camp farthest out at Kanuga Conference Center, outside of
Hendersonville, NC where she received the Lord Jesus as the living Lord and Savior.
After making her 700 acre acquisition of the current High Pastures property, Betty moved into
the small four-room shack at the lower end of the property. The snow blew in between the siding on
cold, windy winter days and nights, but the time seemed like a "honeymoon" in her newly found
relationship with Jesus. Having been touched so powerfully by the Spirit of God, she dedicated her
all to Him, yielding herself to be His handmaiden. Her resources and her newly purchased property
were joyfully surrendered to honor and glorify the Lord Jesus for His highest purposes. In her heart
of hearts Betty committed her life to obedience to His direction and plan. And so High Pastures was
born. As it emerged, God established it as a place where "His sheep" could be fed, find refuge and
refreshing, be equipped and strengthened for service and anointed for ministry.
53
Soon after Betty moved into her house in 1960 she began receiving visitors sent by the Father.
Small groups began to come for weekends and Betty was hard pressed to provide for their care. She
says she didn't "found" High Pastures. The Lord sent the people and all she could do was try to cope
with that He was doing.
As the number of guests outgrew the capacity of her house, Betty built more buildings. By
1968 her home was surrounded by a log cabin, a guest house, a two-bedroom cottage and a small hut.
She could go no further without help, so High Pastures was incorporated and a Board of Directors
was elected. As groups, families, couples, individuals and people from many Christian ministries
were using the facilities and resources, the need for additional lodging and food services buildings
became apparent. In 1970, the dormitory, upper residence and dining hall were built. The prayer
tower was built in 1975 – a unique structure for prayer and meditation.
In 1992, construction was begun on Laurel Lodge conference building which was opened in
the spring of 1993. The Dining Hall was expanded in 1995.
Betty retired from actively managing High Pastures in 1989 and passed into His presence
October 19, 2002. As she had dedicated High Pastures to honor and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ for
His highest purposes, she assured its continuance by basically leaving her entire estate (including the
beautiful seven hundred thirty-two acres property) to the organization thereby endowing the work
God had called her to do even after she was gone to be with Him.
The buildings, the landscaping and trails, the food and other support services, the staff and
Board of Directors are all for the purpose of glorifying God, for providing a place for His Word to be
proclaimed, for providing training and outreach into all the world to further the good news of Jesus
Christ. Those were Betty’s goals and purposes then and are the goals and purposes of High Pastures
today and in the days to come.
"It is our prayer that everyone who comes to this mountain will have a meeting with God."
This is the motto of High Pastures.
Special Attraction:
Burnsville is surrounded by beautiful vistas of Mt. Mitchell and 18 additional peaks within
Yancey County that exceed 6300 feet. There are also over 100 miles of hiking trails and plenty of
back roads to explore by bicycle, motorcycle or car.
Burnsville is fast becoming the destination of choice for that Blue Ridge Mountain vacation
that is really is a vacation! Nearby attractions include Asheville's Biltmore House, Grandfather
Mountain, and Wolf Laurel Ski Resort all of which are less than an hour's drive.

Sri Sri Thakur in my daily life
I live in England, United Kingdom with my family. I left India for the first time in 1999 and
after several house moves; we are now staying in this house in Bolton (a small town in the Northwest
of England) for the last four years. I know Thakur from my childhood from my parents. I am a
member of the Cuttack Saraswata Sangha and also attend the America Saraswata Sangha sessions
regularly.
As sanghasebi, we have duties towards establishing the sanghasakti, build up a good moral
character, lead an ideal household life and also help others around us. I personally think the most
important characteristic of a good Sebaka is building up a good character to make him or her a real
human being. In order to achieve that, Sangha has given us the dashabidha niyama (Ten
Commandments). I am always keen to follow them and would like to share my thoughts and
experiences out of my daily life.
Gruhasana
When I first came to UK, I only had a 6” x 4” size photograph of Sri Sri Thakur, which I used
to keep on a bookshelf in the study room. Then as time went by and we had more space, I got more
organised. Now we have a separate room for Sri Sri Thakur. Thakur’s bigraha is centrally placed in
that room. I have all the basic puja items, most of which are collected from Orissa. Besides I have got
most of the commonly read books published by Nilachala Saraswata Sangha including the recent
Sangha Sebaka issues.
Getting up in the morning
Ideally the ‘bramhamuhurta’ should be the time to leave the bed. Practically it has never been
possible to reach that target, although I am keen to achieve it. However, I try and keep a fixed time
(5:30 am) to get up from the bed. After finishing the morning routine, I do the nityapuja and
swadhyaya. I read the parichaya patra and a page each from the nirajana, nigama upadesha and the
gurugita books. These books give me a direction and good thought to start the new day. I leave for
work between 7:30 – 7:45 am.
Evening
I start the evening puja around 7:00 pm with meditation followed by arati, strotra bandana,
book reading (recent Sangha Sebaka) and two slokas of the Srimadbhagbad gita. My husband and
daughter join me in the evening puja. On weekends, we spend more time in book reading and
knowing more about Thakur. I try and translate interesting stories for my daughter as she is not very
fluent in Oriya.
Food
From the beginning, I was vegetarian on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays and ekadashis.
Recently, I have added more days including purnimas, amabasyas and sankrantis. When we are
outside the house, sometimes it gets difficult to find vegetarian food. I get round it by carrying food
on those days. On special puja days, I cook and offer bhoga to Thakur.
Sangha puja
I was introduced to the America Saraswata Sangha (known as ‘America Pathachakra’ then) in
2002. From then, I have regularly attended the Sunday sessions of the America Saraswata Sangha.
With the grace of Thakur, I try to perform the seba allotted to me properly. We are now so much used
to the Sunday puja over telephone that it is impossible to imagine the geographical distance between
us. I feel myself to be specially privileged as I am not in America, but still can take part. That shows
how strong and widely spread Thakura’s powers are!
57
The Sangha sessions are very useful for exchanging our views and listen to other bhaktas.
Now-a-days often we are able to listen to bhakta bhais from Orissa. My daughter also joins in the
Young Aspirants’ sessions and actively takes part in all seba given to her. She is very enthusiastic to
learn more about Thakur.
Adarsha Gruhastha Jibana
This is one of the main founding principles of Thakur while creating the Nilachala Saraswata
Sangha. Thakur has very systematically laid out the ways to lead an ideal household life. As I have
grown older and have become more familiar with Thakur’s teachings, it seems that we ourselves
cannot just become a perfect adarsha gruhastha without His wish and blessings. Therefore, the best
way to get there is through surrendering our personal desire, ego and self-centred plans. I would like
to pray Thakur everyday for his kindness and guidance to lead us through the right path in order to
have ‘benefit for all (samasti hita)’ through ‘individual (byasti) sadhana’.
Dinalipi
I keep a daily written record (dinalipi) of spiritual activities in the given format and submit it
to the Cuttack Sakha Sangha while renewing my parichaya patra. I am still trying to improve my
scores in the dinalipi as there are lapses sometimes.
Sammilani
In the past, I have joined pradeshika bhakta sammilani in Orissa. I have not attended any after
leaving India. This is probably my greatest wish at the moment, but all depends on Thakura’s wishes
and grace.
Thakur’s blessings are with us
Although it seems that leading a spiritually driven life on Hindu principles is not possible in
the materialistic Western world, it is amazing to see how a divine help is always there if you have
tried for it. At least in my life, I have felt this so many times. Whenever I have started something
good, it has automatically grown bigger and better, due to Thakur's grace.
Three years ago, we went through a very difficult time while looking after our seriously ill
baby son. He was born with a heart and lungs defect which was beyond surgical repair. Just by
carrying on a daily life dedicated to Thakur, we got tremendous mental and physical strength to cross
that 11 month long gruelling journey. Looking back, I cannot even realise what kept us together?
What gave me power to be at the hospital bedside for long shifts? Who gave the enormous degree of
understanding to our nine year old daughter to cope with all that? I don’t have answers. Yet I know
who was behind us. During that hard time I have always found help from Thakur whenever and
wherever I needed it. And I think I have actually seen Thakur in the people around us. After that
phase in my life I feel an even stronger connection between me and Thakur.
I remember, Thakur has said – ‘you walk a foot towards me, and I will come a lot closer to
you’. He is there, waiting to guide us in the right path leading up to Him. The first step comes with
accepting Thakur as owner of our house and all of us in the family working as His sebakas/sebikas.

Sons! Once I have accepted someone as my disciple, can I abandon him? You are not my disciple
only for this life. Our relationship was established since your first birth. Birth after birth you have
neglected your own salvation and accompanied me to serve and help me. You will learn everything
when time comes.

@_ÊbË[Þ (3) -My Experience with Sri Sri Thakur
Life is full of turns and twists and you never know when the next one is approaching which
might leave you without a choice. Sometimes it influences positively and induces certain good
qualities in the form of bonding, sincerity and patience in us. At times it also creates adverse
conditions and challenges our existence.
Well, having said that mine is not a different one, neither would I like it to be. The only
common thing that I have found during all turns and twists in my life is our Thakur. Every time it is
felt as if there is somebody who is there and would be there for whatever I do or will do in future. It’s
a matter of trusting the presence of almighty and realizing the very essence of it deep inside our own.
I would like to take this opportunity to share one of my experiences.
64
In early part of my career, I got into a project which had some work to be done in Boston. As
this was my first offshore trip, I had all those madness or happiness to land there in the Unites States
of America. After settling down a bit, me and one of my colleagues started going around places
nearby. One of the weekends we went to a place called Nantucket Iceland, which is around 120 miles
from our hotel. It's more of a secluded area and doesn’t have much of infrastructure. The actual place
is around one hour or half an hour into the sea. We parked our car at some parking place near the port
and took a speed boat to Nantucket. To cut the story short finally around 10 PM we came back to
parking lot.
Suddenly we realized that our car engine doesn't start, looks like we left the headlight on and
the battery is totally discharged. Now we can’t do anything but need help from somebody to get it
charged. All these happened and that too with an empty stomach. That time we didn’t have cell phone
or anything and started realizing that India was better in at least having basic facility at any place,
imagining a yellow colored PCO booth nearby. Almost all the crowd is gone by then and only couple
of cars left in the parking lot. Good that at least there was a gift shop which was open. Tried to ask
everybody there as to what can be done now. Then somebody told us to go to a nearby place where
we could get a jump starter kit to charge the battery. By then it was nearing 11 PM and finally around
11:15 PM, we were ready to come out of the parking lot. Next plan is to get something to make our
stomach happy. Then we realized that we were almost running out of gas and the car needed to be
filled immediately. Started hunting for a gas station, finally got something after driving 10-15 miles.
Now we were bit ok. Guess what we could have done, the gas station was a remote one and had to be
enabled by the storekeeper before you can start filling in. The pump has both diesel and petrol at the
same place and based on the knob that’s enabled would pump in diesel or petrol. We tried putting in
petrol and it didn’t work, so we thought we were doing something wrong. Then kept on trying for 3-4
times and got frustrated. Now what!!! So tried all the knobs present there and suddenly it started
working. Great job, until we realized it’s actually diesel which is going in, not petrol. Gush!!! It's
already 12 PM midnight and we are hungry to the core. Initially we thought we will drive it anyway
and see what happens. The storekeeper told it was risky and better we park the car there and find
some alternative. There is no hotel or anything nearby so we started panicking, what to do now? With
the help of the storekeeper we pushed the car to a nearby parking. I went inside to pay at least the
amount we owe to him. On the way just iterated “Jayaguru, what should I do now”. Suddenly, I heard
an old man asking, "How do I go to Worcester". That sparked a sudden liveliness in me, because our
hotel will come on the way to Worcester. I just asked him whether he could give us a ride to our
place and explained him our problem. Though his wife was really reluctant he gave us a ride and we
reached our hotel around 2 AM and had a meal finally. I still can’t forget the entire evening and the
moment when I thought of Thakur and within a span of 4-5 seconds I realized I was being helped.
Sri Sri Thakur Charanashrita
Iswar Chandra Biswal
America Saraswata Sangha
@_ÊbË[Þ (4) - In Quest of Virtue
Is it just sheer luck that we know our Thakur and have a guiding principle, which enlightens
and corrects us in every step of our life? Or is there a definite reason for it? I have never seen
Nilachala Saraswata Sangha placing big hoardings or posters on the walls or placing an
advertisement of any kind in newspapers as this is very against the principle laid by Sri Sri Thakur.
Although we know Sri Sri Thakur even before we were born, I often wonder how people are getting
attracted to Thakur? Personally, I never elaborated about Sri Sri Thakur in front of a stranger. Is it
65
that some expectations pulling new Bhais and Maas towards Sri Sri Thakur or is there some invisible
force, which I think as the will of Sri Sri Thakur, working behind this? In the very next moment, I
think of many of our neighbors, co-workers and friends those who are never aware of any spiritual
master. So I wonder, is it that they just don’t need or have never thought in this direction? We do not
know what they miss or what they have. But this is an illusion of this world, as we do not know how
much we are unaware of. In the eye of spirituality this is a crystal that has many dimensions and
surfaces.
Coming back to the thought raised earlier, we often enter into a discussion why someone or
we are not happy. A kid may be happy with a chocolate, a boy can be with a new cricket bat, a
student with a very good score, and a young man with a good job and caring wife, a middle aged man
by seeing the same with their kids getting. Since all material achievements are relative, most people
become unhappy by seeing some one having better material success. It is just the old age, which
makes people realize that by running after material success they missed something real valuable in
life and then they go on visiting all dhams to catch up real happiness in spirituality. Visiting religious
places with the sole intention of obtaining Punya or Mukti, without practicing the deeds as instructed
by a person who has achieved that level, is absolute waste of time and money in life. Without internal
purification, no one has got a way to Mukti Dhama. I found this is where we, the followers of Sri Sri
Thakur, are in a definite plus. We know the objective of life, and hence, whether we are in happiness
or sorrow, we have a definite spiritual goal and mission. We often try to associate an emotion of joy
with an event like travelling abroad for the first time or an emotion of discomfort when a bad weather
leaves us stranded in the airport. In the very next step we associate our success to our hard work, and
failure to our own inability to take prudent actions while performing an activity. The truth about
happiness is something we all have to search within the deepest place of our mind not by associating
with an event or an effort towards our material achievement.
As an example, I will cite an experience of my college days. When I was a student of REC
Rourkela in 1999-2000, we once went to a nearby waterfall in Sundergarh district for picnic. The
place was away from any nearby market; so we took everything we needed to cook, including
firewood. After we set up our camp, one middle-aged tribal man approached us and asked if he could
help us in cleaning the utensils, bringing water from the fall, etc. and in return expected only 5 rupees
for the entire day’s work. It brought a thought to my mind - in which world was he living! He was not
begging, he just wanted to meet his necessities. But, what about the next day? Where was he going to
get his 5 rupees? Being aware of the tribal belt where he lived, I was thinking, does he have faith in
God at all? Of course, he was not a Sadhu or a Santh who has left everything behind. But, at the same
time, he has left all his necessities to someone he does not even know, to fulfill. Those few moments
reminded me over and over again the advice of Sri Sri Thakura to lead a simple life. Often the
education we are getting, leads us to think about accumulating much more than what we actually
need. The incident reminded me to never let the materialistic success overshadow the path shown by
Sri Sri Thakur.
The daily puja at our gruhasana, weekly sangha puja and sammilani help us tremendously in
keeping our mind free of turbulences. The daily puja at our gruhasana, for example, gives our mind
the due relaxation it needs so we become more effective in our day-to-day life. There exist no units
to measure the absolute pleasure we get from it and there is nothing comparable to it. Our everyday
life is just a ripple being carried over an ocean. So focusing on the ripple gets us out of focus from
the bigger objectives for which we are born. And this is where our beloved Sri Sri Thakur revitalizes
our remembrance of our existence for the bigger cause. Ignoring these ripples and keeping our mind
aligned with Sri Sri Thakur will give us the due happiness we are always searching for. The message
66
is clear: it is all about leading a healthy spiritual life and staying away of the materialistic world. We
must believe in him and lay our life at his lotus foot.
Most of us are leading a busy life with a hectic work schedule and are not able to follow the
practices laid by Sri Sri Thakur. But we are trying our best to get aligned with him. I do often
compare it with the project plan developed by corporate executives, which seldom gets followed in
perfection. The best we can do is to minimize errors.
The daunting questions that come to my mind are: why I saw a dollar dream? Why Thakur
did not try his best to keep me closer to all the bhai/maa whom I used to meet on Sundays. The
answer I find is: probably I am put under a test to see whether I am qualified to be close to our divine
lord without visiting the sangha regularly. As the saying goes: “Nearer the temple you are, farther
from God you are.” Sometimes when you are made to distance yourself from something what you
have got easily, you realize the importance of it more closely. Materialistic success gives each of us
more freedom to think about Sri Sri Thakur even more closely. After attending the America
Saraswata Sangha’s weekly puja from November 2007, most of my dilemma have been answered.
Finally, I pray to Sri Sri Thakur to guide us in every step of our quest of virtue and an ideal life.

Non-Profit Organization status for AMSAS
With Divine grace and inspiration from Shri Shri Thakur, a few Nigam Families leaving in USA
started an informal monthly Pathachakra session in August, 2001 on the auspicious day of
Janmotsaba. Later that year Nilachala Saraswata Sangha approved the formation of America
Saraswata Pathachakra. Two years later, when NSS President and Parichalak Shyam Sunder Dash
bhai agreed to visit USA and attend the second annual congregation of America Saraswata
Pathachakra, it was formally registered in the state of Minnesota with Registration No: 548107-2,
Date 26th June 2003, as a non-profit religious organization. That year, while attending the annual
congregation, Shyam bhai enthusiastically permitted the formation of America Saraswata
Sangha. America Saraswata Sangha (AMSAS) was born in 2004 with Shri Shri Thakur's blessings
and permission of Nilachala Saraswata Sangha.
Since the formation of AMSAS, the members of the Sangha desired recognition by USA's
Internal Revenue Service that AMSAS is a non-profit religious organization and equivalent of a
traditional Church in United States of America. This recognition would allow favorable tax benefit
to AMSAS' members. Recognition of a Church status also helps AMSAS in eliminating its tax
filling requirements of other religious organizations. AMSAS submitted the paperwork with IRS in
October of 2007 and after eight months IRS has approved the Church status to AMSAS back dating
to its formation in June of 2003. This is an important milestone in AMSAS' short history as it
prepares the Sangha to establish a permanent place of worship for Shri Shri Thakur.

Young Aspirants’ Section
A Prelude to YA Session
By the grace of Sri Sri Thakura Maharaj and permission from the President and Parichalaka of
Nilachala Saraswata Sangha, Shyam Sundar Dash, Kids’ Session in America Saraswata Sangha was
started in January 2004. As time passed, Kid’s are growing and some of them are teenager so it was
suggested to change the Puja session name. During the 6th Annual Convention of AMSAS at
Burnsvillie, NC, on August 4th 2007, in presence of Pramod Kumar Mohanty bhai, the name Kids’
Session was changed to Young Aspirants’ Session. Young Aspirant session is being held on the first
and third Sundays of the month. Puja session starts at 11:15AM eastern time and lasts for about 30
minutes. In each session there is one assigned person with pali seva, known as palia. The session
starts with the beginning Prathana and Short Stotra Bandana. Introduction to the session is given by
Bijoy Bhai. After that, one person reads a pre-selected story focusing on Sri Sri Thakur’s teachings
and/or experiences, followed by discussion and questions and answers about the story. Next, one
assigned person sings a Prathana song. Subsequently, there is Bhaba Binimaya of the palia, invitation
by next palia, and truti bichyuti by the palia. At last, one assigned person sings bidaya prathana
Dayamaya Shricharane. Each session is conducted by Gyan Bhai and Bijoy Bhai. The participants are
Adyasa, Alok, Abhishek, Ankit, Amrita, Gyan, Brij, Jeni, Sanat, Sarthak, Bhakti, Bobby, Shreya,
Rini, Swati, Jemu and Swaha. During every year annual convention, Young Aspirants’ have one
special session which is conducted by guests from India.

My Life with Shree Shree Thakura
I am fortunate to be born in Thakur’s family. My parents, grandparents, and great
grandparents worship Shree Shree Thakur. I first touched Thakur’s feet when I was just twenty one
days old.
When I was seven I joined Kids’ Session which was occurring once in a month initially and
then twice a month. One kid reads a story and everyone do questions and answers. Then, we do bhaba
binimaya, invitation for the next session, and and beg forgiveness for truti bichyuti. In Sammilani,
sometimes there was Kids’ Session. In last year’s Sammilani, Kids’ Session was changed to Young
Aspirants’ Session. I sing songs in Young Aspirants’ Sessions. I enjoy attending Young Aspirants’
Session and learn lot of things there.
I have been to North Carolina Pathachakra since I was five. Now I sing songs in every
Pathachakra. I also listen to What I Expect. That is about what Thakur wants us to do and act.
75
I have seen America Sammilani since I was five in 2002. In most Sammilanis, there was
Kids’ Session. In the last two Sammilanis, I sang two songs which were “Tumari Pujara” and
“Shreeguru Deva”. Now I am looking forward to this year’s Young Aspirants’ Session in Sammilani.
I also have been to two Sammilanis in India. One was 2002 Jaraka Sammilani and 2005
Begunia Sammilani.
Last summer, I visited India with my family. I saw many places. First, we flew to Jorhat from
Kolkata. From the airport we went by taxi to Kokilamukh Ashram which is in Jorhat district of
Assam. There was a river flowing by, many flowers, and there was natural scenery. There were two
places for puja. One was in a huge temple-like place. The other one was “Gurubrahma Aasana”
where one had to go downstairs to be at the worship place. We stayed there for one and a half days. I
liked the prasad there. While returning to airport, we went to Jorhat Ashram. There we had lunch
Prasad, and met Mahanta Maharaj Swami Jyotirmayananda Saraswati.
After returning to Kolkata, the next day we visited Tarapitha. That was the place where
Thakur did Tantric Sadhana with the help of His guru Bamakhepa. There was a huge temple for
Goddess Tara. To see Her, there was a long line. The place where we saw Her was very crowded.
There was another river nearby. We saw Bamakhepa being worshipped over there. Bamakhepa was
favorite to Goddess Tara. We bought a picture showing Bamakhepa offering bhoga to Goddess Tara.
We returned to Kolkata on the same day by train.
The next day morning, we started our journey to Halisahar by Taxi. On the way to Halishar,
which was in Kolkata near River Ganges it was a long, hot trip. When we reached there, it started to
rain heavily. At Halishar, to see Shree Shree Thakura’s samadhi, you can not wear pants and shirt, so
I wore something which looks to be a saree. Then I could see Thakur and where his Samadhi was.
We had lunch Prasad there. That was a very nice place. We took several pictures for our memory. On
the way back, we went to Kali Temple and touched river Ganga’s holy water.
After reaching Bhubaneswar, the next day we went to Puri. There I saw Nilachala Kutira. In
Thakur’s room there were lots and lots of flowers that had a nice aroma. The window there had a
good view. We went to Lord Jagannath Temple for darshan. Before coming back to USA in July last
week, I went one more time to Puri. That time was Bahuda yatra of Lord Jagannath. For the first time
I saw the three chariots of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra. We touched the
thick rope.
On Rathayatra day, my grandparents, cousins, my mother, brother, and I went to Ekamra
Saraswata Sangha. Thakur was in a chariot like pedestal. The chariot was bright and decorated with
flowers and cloths. My mom took that picture for us. My last year trip to India was very memorable
by the grace of Shree Shree Thakur.
Now my exam is over and sammilani is coming nearby. I am excited to go to middle school
this August in 6th grade. Every summer I pray Thakur for a great school year with good teachers and
good friends. During this year sammilani we will spend almost one week in Burnsville, NC for
sammilani and class puja. I am thinking to do some seva during sammilani. I always get Shree Shree
Thakura’s blessings and feel He is always with me. Jayaguru.

Prayer
“Worship and prayer are no superstition; they are acts more real than the acts of eating,
drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal.”
--- Mahatma Gandhi
What precisely is prayer? What does this word mean? Well, for starters the dictionary defines
prayer as “spiritual communication with God or an object of worship, as in supplication,
thanksgiving, adoration, or confession.” The concept of prayer was mainly established to provide a
pathway for the ordinary, common man to come in contact with God. Almost every single prominent
religion in the world puts emphasis on prayer- be it Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Shintoism,
Buddhism etc. Why? To put it simply, prayer is the only way the devotees can “talk” to their teacher.
Prayer is the medium by which the “students” can turn to their “teacher” for help during times of
anguish and doubt. Prayer allows us to “converse” with God in order to thank him and tell him about
our daily problems. In other words, prayer is extremely essential for the sole reason that it allows the
common man to talk to the omnipotent and thus, allows him to come in contact with the divine deity.
We have seen the enormous significance prayer has in our lives. When we pray, we feel as if
we are intimately close with Thakur. This helps us to cheer us up or lift us up when we are feeling
down. When we are in distress, prayer is the sole thing we can turn to for some warm comfort. Even
if we lose everything fathomable, our devotion to Thakur and our ability to pray him will never be
lost.
Well, for me I cannot fully understand something unless I am presented with a realistic
example. I mainly understood prayer only after I had read a well-known legend, “The Legend of
Dhruv”. It is not only an enthralling legend but also unfolds deep insights. This story clearly
illustrates the overwhelming power of prayer. The legend of Dhruv appears in the Bhagavata Purana
and the Vishnu Purana. Many of you have probably already read it comprehensively. It is written that
he who reads or/and listens to the story of Dhruv, achieves devotion and his sorrows are destroyed.
Unmindful of all the terrible obstacles and with his mind focused only on his goal, Dhruva prayed
exceptionally hard. He often meditated for 12 days at a stretch without food or water. He continually
chanted the mantras Saint Narada taught him. Finally, so great and powerful was his prayer that the
Almighty appeared before him. The Almighty was deeply impressed with Dhruva’s determination
and finally fulfilled his wishes
Now Thakur tells us that the purpose of prayer is to achieve a stage where one’s emancipated
soul is identified with God. Thakur tells us that praying to God means becoming like God. One is
transformed into what he prays. When one prays to Gods and Goddesses, one lives like Gods and
Goddesses. We should not pray half-heartedly. Some of us pray only when we have a big test or a
problem, otherwise we pray rather lackadaisically. We should always pray with the enthusiasm of a
small child. When we pray with eagerness and gusto, no matter what, then Thakur will always be
with us. We should always share everything, good and bad, with Thakur. If we use the medium of
prayer to its maximum potential extremely fervently then Thakur will always be with us and will help
us for ever.
“In spite of despair staring me in the face on the political horizon, I have never lost my peace.
In fact, I have found people who envy my peace. That peace, I tell you, comes from prayer; I am not
a man of learning, but I humbly claim to be a man of prayer. I am indifferent as to the form. Every
77
one is a law unto himself in that respect. But there are some well-marked roads, and it is safe to walk
along the beaten tracks, trod by the ancient teachers.”
--- Mahatma Gandhi
“Prayer cannot bring water to parched fields, or mend a broken bridge, or rebuild a ruined city; but
prayer can water an arid soul, mend a broken heart and rebuild a weakened will.”

Nilachala Kutira
On the 23rd March 2008, my family and I visited the Nilachala Kutira in Puri. I was really
excited to see it.
We entered through the arched main door, and washed our hands and feet. Then we were led
through the veranda to a narrow, spiralled staircase. At the top of the staircase there was Thakur’s
room overlooking the terrace. The room was mainly occupied by a large bed decorated by lots of
flowers. Alongside the bed, there was a chair with Thakur’s beautiful bigraha on it. The padasana at
the side of the bed was covered by colourful flowers. There was a nice scent coming from the burning
incense sticks. I put some flowers at his feet and offered my prayers.
The small space just outside the room was railed off so I couldn’t go onto the terrace. Then
we came downstairs and saw the other rooms. There was a big portrait of Thakur hanging from the
living room wall. We bowed there and then had prasad. After a few minutes we came out of the
Kutira and left for the Jagannath Temple.
Here is some history on Nilachal Kutira as I gathered from various sources including the book
written by Narayani Maa, Nilachale Thakur Nigamananda *. She has written that Nilachal Kutira
was bought from a Bengali gentleman, Hemachandra Ray in 1923 for approximately Rs.6000/- in the
name of Thakur Maharaj.
From outside, it did not look very attractive. Most of the rooms were dark even in daytime
except for the room on the east. A lot of space was wasted in courtyards and verandas leaving only
three useful rooms. The veranda on the north side was open and exposed to rain. The kitchen was not
well ventilated. The only thing good about the house was the south side veranda. However Thakura
very much liked the house because of the room upstairs. It was a single room with open terrace.
Through the window on the east we could see the endless blue sea up to the horizon while Jagannath
Temple could be seen through the west side window. So the room was ideal for Thakur to have a
quiet time. Sri Sri Thakur spent the last twelve years of his life in this house making it a site of
pilgrimage for us.
After buying the house, massive changes were done. The characteristic arch on the main door,
as we see today, was built. Boundary walls were made around the house. A nice garden came up after
hard work by the sevakas. The floor was re-done and overall the house was made more habitable.
Around the Kutira there were only a few neighbourhood houses and the rest of it was occupied by a
78
jungle full of casuarinas, cacti and other arid bushes. Wind passing through those used to make a
fearful howling noise. That environment is not there now.
I would like to go there again and spend more time.

My Summer Experiences
I would like to share my experience during my summer visit to India in 2007. I would like to
talk about 4 places on my trip to India.
The 1st place is Shri Shri Thakura’s ashram near my grand parent’s house at old-town. When
I and my grand-mother reached, there were many Bhais. We went to a hose to wash our hands and
feet. From then we went bare foot. We went to Thakur’s bedroom and saw a bigraha (picture) of
Him. We put pranami and flowers and sang short prayers. Soon after we left and joined a puja. There
we sang many prayers and played some instruments. Then we went to take Prasad. It was very
delicious.
The 2nd place is Nilachala Kutira. I went with many of my relatives. When we got there, we
had to go through a long line because; it was Rakhi Purnima, which is Shri Shri Thakura’s birthday.
After about one hour, we went inside, taking our shoes off. There were three Bigraha’s (pictures) of
Shri Shri Thakura. One was on swing outside. We put pranami and flower next to it. The 2nd picture
was in the living room with lots of flower. The third picture was upstairs in Thakura’s bedroom,
when he was living in Kutira. It has hundred of flowers around it. After we prayed, we went to take
Prasad. We had to wait for 2 to 3 hours before the gate could open. There were two lines, one had
more boys than girls and other had more girls than boys. It was extremely hot, so I put a handkerchief
on my head. It helped me from the sun’s scorching rays little bit. I also stood next to the building, it
was giving me some shade. After all of that, we went inside. There was so much shade. We ate our
Prasad for 30 min in our hands, sitting on the floor. There were no spoons or other utensils. After that
we washed our hand and left. It was a beautiful and most memorable experience I ever had. It would
be in my mind for ever.
The 3rd place is Lingaraj Temple. When I and my grandmother went, there were so many little
temples inside the compound. Fist we washed our hands and feet. Then we went to many small
temples and lit dhupakathi and deepa. Then we went to Ganesh Temple that was so high. We climbed
about 30-35 steps to reach at the top to see the statue of Lord Ganesh. It was an enormous statue.
Then we went down to visit more temples. We saw many monkeys. They were cool, but we kept our
distance from them as they could harm us. After that we went inside the main temple of Lord
Lingaraj. There were so many people. I almost tripped and fell on floor. We prayed and offered
flowers and bilwa leaves and did puja and left.

The 4th place is Jagannath temple at Puri. I went with many relatives. There was a wishing
tree and I made some wishes. Then we went to small temples around the temple. After that we went
to the big temple with large statue of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Maa Subhadra. It was a
huge rush but we managed to do some prayer. Then we saw monkeys. We ate our Prasad fast
because, they might steal it. Then we went again to other small temples along the boundary wall. I
went back to the wishing tree to make more wishes. At night an enormous, humongous group of
people, including us saw two Pandas (guys) climb to the top of the temple to change the flag!! The
temple is the size of the empire state building! It was shocking and stunning!
These are some of my experience during my summer visit of India in 2007.

Thakura is my friend
Thakura is my friend,
And in all my fears,
Thakura is there,
To wipe out my tears.
Thakura makes me smile,
Smiling is my power,
And I love to offer Thakura,
A very pretty flower.
Thakura blessed me,
Now I’m who I want to be,
There is no person,
Just like me.

A Brief Introduction to Max Müller
A few times Sri Sri Thakura has referred to Max Müller’s work. In order to learn a bit about
Max Müller, I checked on Internet. The following is a short introduction that I have collected and
sharing with the readers.
Max Müller was born in December 6, 1823 in Dessau, Germany to Wilhelm and Adelheide
Müller. In college, he changed his interest from music to philosophy and started to learn Sanskrit. To
help his professor, he translated the Upanishads, Hindu scriptures. Müller therefore devoted himself
to the study of Sanskrit, becoming one of the major Sanskrit scholars of his day. He then translated
the Rig Vedas so westerners could understand them. Müller was greatly impressed by Ramakrishna
Paramhansa, his contemporary and proponent of Vedantic philosophy, and authored several essays
and books on him. He helped the Indian population further by publishing many works explaining
80
their culture and religion to others, including: A History of Ancient Sanskrit Literature So Far As It
Illustrates the Primitive Religion of the Brahmans (1859), India, What can it Teach Us? (1883), and
Six Systems of Hindu Philosophy (1899). To honor him, the Goethe Institutes in India are named
Max Müller Bhavan. He was thought of as against Jesus Christ and Christianity by many churches,
but he did not care. Müller distanced himself from these developments, and remained within the
Lutheran faith (a sect of Christianity) which he had been brought up in. He said several times the
view that a "reformation" within Hinduism needed to occur comparable to the Christian Reformation.
In his opinion, "if there is one thing which a comparative study of religions places in the clearest
light, it is the inevitable decay to which every religion is exposed.... Whenever we can trace back a
religion to its first beginnings, we find it free from many blemishes that affected it in its later states".
He used his links with the Brahmo Samaj in order to encourage such a reformation on the lines
pioneered by Ram Mohan Roy. He died in October 28, 1900.
