Sanatan Ban

 Congress agenda of appeasing Muslims  at the cost of 
Sanatan :Sanatan likely to be banned between June and October
   New Delhi - "Announcement of a ban on Sanatan Sanstha is likely to be made any time between June and October 2013 by the Union Government.
     A senior official in the Ministry of Home Affairs said, “The issue is being deliberately discussed publicly before the elections with a view to gauge if the minorities will vote for the Congress. If the Congress feels that it will get the support of the minorities, Sanatan Sanstha may be banned and ‘Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence Bill’ will also be passed”. That the anti-national and heretic Congress Government is set to ban Sanatan Sanstha is in a way a certificate that Sanatan Sanstha is nationalist and loyal to Dharma.”
- Dr. Athavale (Poush Shukla Paksha 14, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [25.1.2013])

A system of governance based on Hindu Dharma is imperative for the welfare of mankind !

Ideal system of governance for the world !
     Sanatan Hindu Dharma is the origin of morality and ethics. Since a ‘secular’ system of governance does not have the foundation of Dharma (Righteousness), moral decline of the Nation is natural. Hence, there is only one ideal alternative to the outdated Communism, tyrannical Dictatorship and selfish Democracy - ‘System of governance based on Hindu Dharma’. To promote morality in national life, it is necessary for all Nations in the world to adopt a system of governance based on Hindu Dharma.
Useful for world peace
     For the world to experience peace, tolerance is necessary, not violence. Sanatan Hindu Dharma nurtures the highest values of life. Hence, it is benevolent for the world. If the world adopts governance based on Hindu Dharma, tendencies towards violence will perish; as a result, there will be no wars, the world will experience eternal peace.

Dainik Sanatan Prabhat is 14

    Sanatan Ashram, Ramnathi (Goa) - ‘Dainik Sanatan Prabhat’ has been incessantly active for rejuvenation of the Nation and Dharma, braving heavy odds. It has instilled fear in the hearts of heretics with its sharp and fearless pen and nurtures Brahmatej (Radiance of a Brahman) along with Kshatratej (Radiance of a warrior). The 14th Anniversary of its Goa and Sindhudurg edition was celebrated with much enthusiasm on 14.4.2013.

Owing to Mr. Katju’s remarks, PIL filed to repeal Press Council Act

(From left) Mr. Pansare and  Advocate Punalekar
     Mumbai (Maharashtra) - Mr. Katju, Chairman of Press Council of India is taking undue advantage of his post. His constant controversial statements are creating confusion in the country. His behavior is completely inappropriate considering his post. Therefore, he is morally not entitled to continue as the Chairman. Unfortunately there is no mechanism to lodge a complaint against him or remove him, which is a serious legal lacunae.
     Anyone from the President of Bharat to a sarpanch of a village, can be removed from their post; but Chairman of the Press Council of India cannot be removed. Hence, representative of ‘Dainik Sanatan Prabhat’ in Maharashtra Mantralaya and Convenor of ‘Deshbhakta Patrakar Manch’ Mumbai, Mr. Arvind Pansare, demanded in a press conference that the flawed Press Council Act be repealed. For pursuing the demand, Advocate Sanjeev Punalekar, Secretary of ‘Hindu Vidhidnya Parishad’ filed a PIL in the Bombay High Court on behalf of Mr. Pansare. Advocate Punalekar raised the following points in the press conference :

Appeal to Government Servants, Officials and Police !

Do not succumb to the pressures from politicians and become an accomplice in their sins !
H.H. Dr. Athavale
    Dharma with the help of the Government machinery, that is, Government employees, officials and Police to meet their selfish ends, because of which great injustice is meted out to people and the society. In addition, it causes irreparable harm to the Nation and Dharma.
Vote-hungry rulers take action against people, the society, the Nation and
     Many times, Government employees, officials and the Police do not wish to act against the society, the Nation and Dharma; however, due to pressure from the rulers, they are compelled to take action. In such a situation, it is necessary that they take precautions not to commit any act that amounts to a sin. Else, along with the rulers, they also incur a sin by participating in the sins of the rulers.

A request to the readers of ‘Sanatan Prabhat’ and well-wishers of Sanatan !

    Help the innocent child-seekers, student-seekers and the 
elderly seekers who will be left without support after the ban on Sanatan !

   Seekers overseas can contact respective Responsible Seekers and seekers in Bharat can contact as given ahead !
      Politicians of a political party have resolved to prove Hindus as terrorists by bringing a ban on Sanatan. To bring the mission of Sanatan to a halt after the ban, they will lock Ashrams of Sanatan and will arrest a few important seekers as a precautionary measure. We can-not rule out the possibility of the Police falsely implicating seekers in order to keep them in jail for a longer period. Despite this, the seekers will be proved innocent according to a saying that ‘Truth always prevails in the end’.
     During this ban period, when Sanatan’s Ashrams will be locked, questions about the future of the seekers who are living in the Ashrams and have sacrificed everything will crop up.

Remember this after Sanatan is banned !

     After Sanatan Sanstha is banned, some arrogant Policemen may try to harass the nationalist and devout seekers and volunteers while arresting them or after it. The seekers/volunteers should immediately inform the names of such Policemen as soon as they are released on bail. Keep the fire of revenge burning in your hearts. Such Policemen will be severely punished in the ‘Hindu Nation’.
     Sages and Seers were persecuted by the demons. Similarly, Sanatan Sanstha is being persecuted by the Congress Government and workers of some Hindu organisations. They will meet the same fate as the demons did. - Dr. Athavale (Phalgun Krushna Paksha 10, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [5.4.2013])

Enhance spiritual strength to establish the ‘Hindu Nation’

      History says that Dharma has always been established with the help of Divine strength. Bhagawan Shrikrushna imparted spiritual strength to Pandavs and Devi Bhavani to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. O Hindus ! Enhance your spiritual strength by abiding by Dharma in daily life for establishment of the ‘Hindu Nation’.- Dr. Athavale (Year 2012)

Hidden agenda behind the Communal Violence Bill

     If the Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence Bill (PCTV) is passed, Hindus will be treated as criminals world wide. Here are some of the major points of this Bill.
     1. A Hindu against whom any Muslim/Christian minority make any complaint shall be presumed in law to be guilty by Police & Courts till that Hindu proves his innocence (Sec 70, 71 & 73)
     2. An accused Hindu shall have to be immediately arrested as all offences under this Bill are non -bailable & cognizable (Sec 56)
     3. This law can be invoked only by a minority against Hindus.

Second ‘All India Hindu Convention’ to establish the ‘Hindu Nation’

Donate generously to make it successful !
      Ponda (Goa) - The 2nd ‘All India Hindu Convention’ of Hindu  speakers, editors, authors, advocates, Dharmacharyas (Spiritual guides) and Hindu organisations that are active towards the mission of establishing the ‘Hindu Nation’ and re-awakening Dharma will be held from 6th to 10th June 2013 here. Hindus from over 20 States in Bharat and from Nepal will participate in this Convention. Over 300 Hindus will attend the 5-day Convention.
    The estimated cost of the Convention on various counts (such as hall rent, boarding and lodging arrangements for participants, setting up exhibitions, local transportation etc.) will be about Rs. 25 lakh. Similarly, a souvenir will be published on this occasion by Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS).
HJS has appealed to devout Hindus and well-wishers to donate generously for this mission. Please contact 08451006074 for giving donations. HJS has also said that Cheques / Demand Drafts may be drawn in favour of ‘Hindu Janajagruti Samiti’.

Overcome personality defects and ego, have steadfast faith in Shrikrushna And proceed to establish the ‘Hindu Nation’

    1. Developoment of Arjunbhav is necessary as per the times : It is necessary to inculcate Arjunbhav (Spiritual emotion of the warrior Arjun) in the self as per the times. Some Hindus think that the worst of times are approaching, there is chaos everywhere and to prevent all this, God will have to incarnate. However, it is not true that Shrikrushna or Shriram will incarnate and then the times will change. In fact, Shrikrushna is already guiding us through the medium of H.H. Dr. Athavale and many Saints; however, we have not adopted Arjun’s stance. We must adopt this stance. All seekers should inculcate Arjunbhav as per the times. Like Arjun, we also have to protect Dharma.

Why does the Hindu society need its own ‘Hindu Nation’ ?

     On 15th August 1947, Pakistan was created for Muslims and Hindusthan for the Hindus; however, much later, that is, on 26th January 1950 Hindusthan was declared ‘secular Bharat’. If all people in the world (for example, the British, the French, the German, the Chinese, the Japanese) have their own Nations, why should the Hindus not have their own ‘Hindu Nation’ ?

Parashuram Jayanti Vaishakha Shukla Paksha 2 (12 May 2013)

    Stories about Parashuram appear in the Ramayan, Mahabharat and in some Purans. Unlike the Incarnations preceding Him, there is no separate Puran named after Him.                  
Mission
     A. Slaying of unrighteous Kshatriyas (Warrior class) : Sage Valmiki has referred to Him not as a slayer of Kshatriyas but of kings. From this, it can be inferred that Parashuram did not kill all Kshatriyas, but only Kshatriya kings who were cruel and evil.
    The story of Parashuram slaying Kartavirya and then abiding by His father’s direc­tives to embark on a pilgrimage to undertake austerities is well known. And, so is the story of His vow to eliminate Kshatriyas from the earth 21 times to punish evil Kshatriyas (like Haihayas) for killing a Brahman. According to this vow, He would slay the unrighteous Kshatriyas and then retreat for penance to the Mahendra Mountain. Whenever there was an increase in evil Kshatriyas, He would return and slay them. He did this 21 times.

Akshaya Trutiya Vaishakha Shukla 3 (13 May 2013)

     Akshaya Trutiya is one of the three and a half muhurts (Auspicious times) in a year. Some say it is the day which marks the beginning of the Krutayug or the Tretayug.
     Significance : Combined waves of Brahma & Shrivishnu come from the region of the Supreme Deities (or the Sagunlok) to the earth due to which the sattvikta on the earth increases by 10%.
    Meaning : If the Deity that bestows constant happiness and prosperity is worshipped on the day of Akshaya Trutiya with a feeling of gratitude, the Deity’s grace never diminishes.

Congress forgets killing of Bharatiya soldiers, starts ‘Visa on arrival’ for Pakistanis

     New Delhi - Bharat has started issuing ‘Visas on arrival’ for senior Pakistani citizens, a facility that had been suspended following the brutal killing of two Bharatiya soldiers along the LoC on January 8, which subsequent heightened tensions in bilateral relations. Some clauses of the relaxed visa regime like multiple-entry and reporting-free visas for business-men and allowing them to travel to five cities instead of the earlier three were operationalised when Pakistan’s Interior Minister Rehman Malik visited New Delhi in December. (Shame on the Government for having forgotten the brutal killing of Bharatiya soldiers and giving visas to the citizens of enemy country ! It is high time that patriotic Bharatiyas defeat this spineless and insane Government in the forthcoming elections ! - Editor)

MK Gandhi’s ‘Sevagram Ashram’ seeks pardon for Sanjay Dutt !

Says, “Sanjay Dutt is a very prominent actor and this 
country needs actors like him;therefore, he should be pardoned” !
    Nagpur (Maharashtra) - A letter to the above effect has been sent to the President of Bharat. (Sanjay Dutt has been found guilty by the Supreme Court. Instead of honouring the Court’s decision, those who seek pardon for Dutt are in fact going against laws of the land. If Dutt was to be pardoned, why was the Court’s time wasted ? A list should be made in advance of all those who are likely to be pardoned and cases against them be withdrawn ! That will save everyone’s time and resources ! - Editor)
     The Sevagram letter goes onto say that the country needs the thoughts and plans put forth by Gandhi, and that attempts to propagate such thoughts have been made ‘in a very nice manner’ through films like ‘Munnabhai MBBS’ and ‘Lage Raho Munnabhai’, which had a positive effect on the youth; therefore, such an actor should be pardoned. (If films helped spread good thoughts, bad deeds of such actors have also caused harm to the Nation. A good deed will have good effects and the outcome of bad deeds will be bad. - Editor)

Ajit Pawar’s vulgar reply, mockery of and insult to the famine-stricken

                         A Democracy that gives immoral rulers is of no use !
     Indapur (Maharashtra) - Dy. Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Mr. Ajit Pawar used indecent language while criticising the famine-stricken people in a program at Nimbodi, Indapur Taluka in Pune District. He was speaking at a Bhoomipujan ceremony. His remarks have created discontent not only among the famine-stricken people but also people who feel strongly about the state of our country.

Belated laudable decision by Karnataka’s BJP Government

Ban on naming liquor bars after Deities
     Bengaluru (Karnataka) - The Revenue Department of the Karnataka Government has taken a decision to ban naming bars after Deities and putting up pictures of Deities on the boards. A public interest litigation had been filed in Karnataka High Court for removal of Deities’ picture on boards of shops. Against this background, the Revenue Department has taken this decision to respect the religious feelings of the people. (Devout Hindus should demand that such a decision be taken by other States too. - Editor)
     An order will be issued that the boards of all bars should be similar and only the name of shop, licence number and name of the owner be mentioned on it. Many alcohol manufacturing companies use pictures of women to attract alcohol drinkers.

Dr. Subramanian Swamy conferred with ‘Hindu Ratna’ Award

    New Delhi - In a simple function here, Hindu Helpline (HHL) celebrated its 2nd Anniversary. To help Hindus during emergencies related to Travel, Health, Administrative, Legal and Religious matters etc., HHL has a 24X7 call center; so far over 10,000 Hindus have availed of the HHL.
    HHL conferred the ‘Hindu Ratna’ Award on Janata Party President Dr. Subramanian Swamy and Shri. Vishnu Hari Dalmia.

What the BJP has lost by Sangh not teaching its cadres sadhana !

     The Sangh did not teach its Swayamsevaks what is spiritual Hindu-activism and also did not get sadhana (Spiritual practice) done from them. As a result, the BJP, though an offshoot of Sangh, did not remain committed to its principles and became a poor imitation of the Congress. Hence, it failed to take action against its corrupt former Chief Minister of Karnataka, Mr. Yeddyurappa, its corrupt former National President, Mr. Gadkari, and Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Mr. Shivaraj Singh, who heaped atrocities on Hindus for visiting Shri Saraswati temple at Dhar. - Dr. Athavale (Phalgun Shukla Paksha 10, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [22.3.2013])  

Emulate Nana Patekar for boycotting films of a criminal film star !

     New Delhi - “All are equal in the eyes of law. No one is small or big in front of the Court. Hence, Sanjay Dutt must undergo the punishment. Why should he be given any concession ? He is not my enemy; but the crime he committed is heinous. So, as an actor I will not work with him in films nor will I watch his films. From my side, I can give him this punishment”, said renowned actor Nana Patekar in an interview after he accepted the Padmashri Award on 20th April 2013.

3 lakh Hindus congregate for Ramnavami Procession


      Bhagyanagar (Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh) - On Ramnavami, a sea of Hindus congregated for the procession under the leadership of Mr. Rajasingh Thakur. Over 3 lakh Hindus gave a befitting reply to Akabaruddin Owaisi (of MIM) who had threatened to eliminate Hindus. The 3 kilometer long procession included floats, a huge Idol of Shriram, saffron flags and people covering their heads with saffron cloth. The whole atmosphere had become charged with Hindutva. For security purposes, the Police had covered mosques and dargahs enroute. Mr. Ramesh Shinde (Spokesperson of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti) also participated with HJS’ local volunteers.

Hindu unity stops denigration of Deities

Russian Art Gallery removes paintings 
denigrating Shrikrushna
    A Russian Art Gallery website, ArtNow.ru, was selling pornographic art commercially, one of which depicted Bhagawan Shrikrushna. Another painting depicted a nude girl walking behind AC Bhaktivedant Srila Prabhupada (Founder of ISKCON), thereby denigrating Him too. When some devout Hindus came to know of this, they protested with the Art Gallery. The avalanche of protests forced the Art Gallery to withdraw the paintings from its website. (Let us offer gratitude at the Holy feet of Shrikrushna for this success of Hindu unity ! This Art Gallery’s is one example of serious denigration of revered Hindu Deities and Hindu Saints worshipped by billions of Hindus. Devout Hindus must protest lawfully against each painter and the platform they get to insult Hindu Dharma under the guise of ‘Art and Freedom of Expression’. They should also seek public apologies from such people for hurting the religious sentiments of Hindus, and ensure that such people do not repeat such mistakes. - Editor)

6500 Hindus come together to fight anti-Hindu forces

     Sawantwadi (Maharashtra) - HJS organised a ‘Hindu Dharmajagruti Sabha’ near Gymkhana grounds here on 7th April to create awareness amongst Hindus towards increasing attacks on Hindu Dharma, conversions of Hindus, oppression of Hindus to appease minorities, slaughter of cows revered by Hindus, efforts to eliminate Hindu Dharma through the medium of ‘Love Jihad’ etc.

‘Business Today’ denigrates Shri Vishnu

     New Delhi - ‘Business Today’ has denigrated Shrivishnu by depicting cricketer MS Dhoni as Shrivishnu on its front page last month. MS Dhoni has been shown with many hands, which hold products such as Lays chips, Gulf Oil, Boost, Dabur, thereby trivialising Shrivishnu. (It is the duty of all Hindus to protest lawfully against ‘Business Today’, so that they withdraw their Issue and tender unconditional apology to Hindus for hurting their religious sentiments. Devout Hindus can also take legal recourse against ‘Business Today’ and boycott it if they do not apologise. - Editor)

RTI revelation : No evidence of ‘Saffron terror’ or ‘Hindu terror camps’

      Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) - The Home Minister of Bharat, Mr. Sushilkumar Shinde’s baseless claims have now been throughly exposed as he had no evidence to prove his allegations against RSS and BJP that they are linked to ‘Saffron terror’ or ‘Hindu terror camps’. This was revealed through a reply to an RTI application filed by activist Ms. Urvashi Sharma seeking information on these aspects. This information actually jolted the Home Ministry and stamped Mr. Sushilkumar Shinde as a blatant liar.
      Moreover, in reply to the RTI application, the Government failed to indicate the total number of incidents of violence that were alleged to have been perpetrated upon the minorities in the country. The information provided under the RTI Act has emerged as a big embarrassment for the Congress and UPA Government at the Centre.

Fanatic Muslims thrash Hindus during Dhulivandan

     Mumbai (Maharashtra) - On the occasion of Dhulivandan, Mr. Ratan Gengaje, a Hindu youth reprimanded a Muslim youth, Salim Shaikh, for his arrogant behaviour at Ghatkopar (West). With the intention to take revenge, Salim Shaikh brought 20-25 Muslim youth to Mr. Gengaje’s house and thrashed him. (O Hindus ! Understand the arrogance with which fanatic Muslims create a riot-like situation on your festivals under some pretext or the other. Be alert and defend yourselves during each festival.- Editor)

Characterless actors rob the poor ! - Sri Sri Ravishankar

Sri Sri Ravishankar
     New Delhi - “By indulging in various gimmicks in front of the cameras, actors in Bollywood earn crores of rupees and exploit the poor. They lead characterless and immoral lives”, said Sri Sri Ravishankar (Founder of ‘Art of Living’) while guiding His devotees here last month. He criticised the film ‘Oh My God !’, which denigrates Deities and for the subject presented in the film.
Sri Sri Ravishankar added,
    1. What do the actors do ? In an advertisement for an inhaler, they sneeze 2-3 times and take crores of rupees for endorsing the product. These actors have all kind of vices such as drinking, taking drugs and splurging money in feasting. It is all people’s money. The poor people go and watch films for entertainment and waste their money. Their hard earned money goes to the pockets of such actors.

10 lakh litres of water wasted in ‘Ijtema’ by Muslims !

      Kolhapur (Maharashtra) - Muslims gathered in the name of ‘Ijtema’ at Udgir (District Latur) started rioting and despite devout Hindu activists from Kolhapur giving representation against this ‘Ijtema’, thousands of Muslims attended it on 28 acres of land under Police protection. (Have the Police ever provided protection to any programme of Hindus to protect them from terrorists ? Since the rulers want Muslim votes, they are provided protection for such programmes. The same Muslims had attacked and injured some Policemen at Udgir. Why do the Policemen forget such things ? - Editor)

Bombay High Court raps ‘Sai Sansthan’ for not providing proper facilities to devotees

     Shirdi (Maharashtra) -  Considering the inconveniences faced by the devotees, Sambhajinagar Bench of Bombay High Court has ordered ‘Sai Mandir Sansthan’ to provide all amenities to them. Orders to provide free meals, setting up a ‘Goushala’, setting up a project for providing pure drinking water, starting printing press etc. were also given by the Court.

Desecration of Shri Khandoba Dev’s Idol

      This is the adverse time Sanatan has been talking of for 14 years now !
     Pune (Maharashtra) - Desecration of ‘Jagrut’ Devasthan of Shri Khandoba Dev at Jambut (Shirur, Pune) has come to light. The Idol of Shri Khandoba Dev was desecrated, a gold-plated sword was stolen from the Idol’s hand and cash from the donation box was stolen. The incident created tension in the Jambut village and all Hindus observed a bandh condemning the incident. The angry villagers decided to continue with the bandh till the culprits are brought to book. The Police apealed to the villagers to remain calm. (Police appeal to the Hindus to remain calm even after an Idol of their Deity is desecrated; but why do they not promptly nab the culprits ? If such an incident had taken place in case of followers of any other religion, they would have immediately started rioting and disturbed the law and order situation in the country ! - Editor)

Goumukhi Mandir smeared with green colour

     Nanded (Maharashtra) -  There is an ancient Goumukhi Mandir of Mahanubhava Sect near Brahmapuri. Fanatics from a particular community painted this temple with green colour in just one night last month. ‘This rock-temple was our dargah’, claimed the fanatics. Later, Police painted khaki colour over the green for maintaining harmony, which in fact created tension in the area.  (During the Mughal regime, Mughal invaders destroyed Hindu temples and constructed mosques in their place. Even in independent Bharat, owing to appeasement of insolent fanatics by the Congress rulers, they feel that they can get away with anything and there is nobody to question them in this country. With such a guarantee, they dare to attack temples of Hindus. Hindus should realise that establishment of the ‘Hindu Nation’ is the only solution to changing this situation ! - Editor)

Special Courts for Muslims : Congress

     The Congress-led UPA has stooped to a new low in its quest to capture the increasingly uncertain Muslim vote-bank with a mischievous and deplorable move to set up ‘Special Courts’ for members of the minority community who have been ‘falsely implicated’ in terror cases. Apart from being a stunning denunciation of Police and intelligence forces in the country, this raises some fundamental questions.
     To begin with, how does one arrive at a definition of ‘false implication’ until and unless a trial is held, the offence or offences against the accused proved, and the verdict pronounced by a Court of Law ? To be sure, it is the legal defence of all defence advocates that the accused has / have been ‘falsely implicated’, but for a Government to set up Special Courts for ‘false’ cases is to presume that the normal judicial process is either biased against the accused or otherwise incapable of delivering justice.

In the ‘Hindu Nation’, those who appease Muslims will be sent to Pakistan !

H. H. Dr. Athavale
   Start a Religious movement against the heretics, denigrators of Dharma who disrespect the values of Dharma, rationalists who brand the ethical teachings of Dharma as false, advocate a sham called modernity and are endeavouring to spread it everywhere !
      The appropriate punishment for all politicians, social workers, rationalists, progressives, journalists and TV-media people who appease the Muslims, thereby driving the Hindus out of the country and causing immense harm to the Nation, will be to send them to Pakistan after the establishment of the ‘Hindu Nation’.
- Dr. Athavale (Margashirsha Shukla Paksha 2, Kaliyug Varsh 5112 [7.12.2010])

Spirituality can never be a subject of research !

     Man was created first and science later. Knowledge was created first and man later; hence, Spirituality can never be a subject of research. - Dr. Athavale (4.7.2009)
                                                 Commentary by ‘A Scholar’
     1. Secret of creation of Knowledge : Knowledge was created from nirgun (Non-materialised) Principles associated with the creation of the universe.
     2. Process underlying the creation of Maya (The Great Illusion) in the form of science through Knowledge : 
     A. Knowledge created action and action created desire.

Be a soldier in the revolution of Dharma !

     Revolution brings about transformation and the revolution of Dharma is a transformation conducive to Dharma ! There have been many revolutions across the world; however, none were based on values and Dharma. Some revolutions failed, some resulted in anarchy, while others ended in Dictatorships. The results of revolutions is not encouraging and have invariably brought about downfall of the Nation. Establishing an ideal system of governance (meaning of Dharma) is possible only after a Dharmakranti. This is why, ‘Sanatan Prabhat’ has been treading this path since its inception. So is Sanatan’s mission statement - ‘For Establishment of the Hindu Nation’. For a Dharmakranti to fructify, Brahmatej and Kshatratej are essential. Hence, ‘Sanatan Prabhat’ allots 50% space to sanskars on Dharma, spiritual practice and Spirituality; the balance 50% is allotted to elucidating the state of the society, Nation and awakening of Dharma. -     Dr. Athavale (30.3.2013)

Hindu Nation

Let us create a ‘Hindu Nation’ that will give the 
world a direction of Peace, Happiness and Contentment !
     1. Today’s generation has to taste the poisonous fruits of the tree nurtured by the Congress
It is satisfying to note that the Goa Legislative Assembly elections in 2012 left a bitter taste in the mouth of the Congress. However, today’s generation is compelled to taste the poisonous fruits of the tree nurtured by the Congress over the last 60 years.
     2. With our personal resolutions, resolve on every auspicious event to create the ‘Hindu Nation’ !
    Each of us makes various resolutions on auspicious events (such as New Year, birthday etc.). We decide to fulfill our dreams of education, a new home, a promotion in job or marriage in the New Year. While fulfilling these personal dreams, let us also resolve to collectively create the ‘Hindu Nation’.

Need to render assistance in establishing the Dharma-based ‘Hindu Nation’

     Today all people are trapped in a system of governance which is secular, corrupt, selfish and communal and which lacks patriotism. The pollution created by this system has overshadowed the glorious concept of ‘Hindu Nation’. The ‘Hindavi Swarajya’ established by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj has been thrown into the dustbin of history and attempts are being made to paint it green under the pretext that it was a rule which was ‘Sarvadharmasam- bhav’ oriented (A kingdom with equal respect to all religions). Ramrajya, that is, ‘Hindu Nation’, was actually established in Bharat; but it is now derided as a myth. A deliberate attempt is being made to create an impression that a ‘Hindu Nation’ means fanaticism. However, this is a patently false propaganda.

H.H. Asarambapuji praises ‘Sanatan Prabhat’

(From Left) Mr. Shivaji Vatkar (Coordinator of HJS) with H.H. Asarambapuji
   Navi Mumbai - H.H. Asarambapuji’s satsang had been organised in Kharghar last month, when volunteers of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) had His darshan and invited Him to attend the 2nd ‘All India Hindu Convention’, which will be held in Goa in June 2013. Many newspapers had last month criticised H.H. Asarambapuji for wasting water in a ‘Holi’ function. This criticism had been refuted in ‘Dainik Sanatan Prabhat’, a copy of which was shown to Him by Mr. Shivaji Vatkar (Coordinator of HJS for Maharashtra and Goa). H.H. Asarambapuji read out this news to His devotees and praised ‘Dainik Sanatan Prabhat’. H.H. Asarambapuji was also invited to visit Sanatan’s Ashram at Devad (Panvel).

Of God’s Name, Gurukrupayoga, Sanatan Sanstha, Bliss and Truth !

Importance of remembering God‘s Name consistently !
       I had to recite a mantra (A syllable, word or words representing spiritual reality or an aspect of God uttered to protect oneself or to achieve a specific goal) comprising 2 lines everyday to overcome a catastrophic event.
     I read the mantra which was written on a paper for 6 days. I could recite the mantra on the 7th day without looking at the paper. I was thrilled at this small success.
     I could experience that we feel so happy with such small things. When by remembering just 2 lines I felt so happy, how blissful will it be if we remember God’s Name all the time !
- Dr. Athavale (Phalgun Krushna Paksha 5, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [31.3.2013])

Required : Seekers for Sanatan’s Audio-Video Section

      At present, spiritual research is going on in Sanatan’s Ramnathi Ashram, Goa. Most seekers who are presently performing seva in this section lack seeker’s qualities and an attitude of performing paripurna seva. Hence, though expensive and latest equipments, such as cameras, computers etc. are available, and a lot of time and manpower is being spent on improving the quality of the seva, the output is low or even nothing at times. As a result, the process of sharing knowledge obtained through research with the society is getting delayed. To complete related sevas, there is a need for seekers who have seeker’s qualities and who are willing to perform paripurna seva.

Pearls of Spiritual Wisdom for day-to-day Living !

Vyashti sadhana (not samashti sadhana) takes place due to sacrifice !
     Some people feel, ‘We have sacrificed the body, mind and wealth - this means we are bound to progress in Spirituality’. They must remember that, it is not enough to sacrifice the body, mind and wealth. Qualities like Priti (Unconditional spiritual love) are also required. Sacrifice helps in reducing worldly attraction; but qualities do not develop merely by sacrifice.
     Until we inculcate God’s qualities in ourselves, we cannot merge with Him. Sacrifice facilitates vyashti sadhana, but not samashti sadhana.
- Dr. Athavale (Phalgun Shukla Paksha 5, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [16.3.2013])

Benefits and spiritual progress due to destruction of ego

Pujya Umesh Shenoy
     Human birth is rare and it is actually meant for performing spiritual practice and obtaining Moksha (Final Liberation); but due to the covering of ignorance around us, we are not aware of this purpose.
     One major component in the covering of ignorance is ego. Let us learn in this article about creation of ego, its relation to destiny, some aspects of ego and remedies thereon.
    1. Being blessed with a Paratpar Guru like H.H. Dr. Athavale, Moksha is possible if we utilise our kriyaman karma properly
     Due to our sadhana (Spiritual practice) in our previous births, we have come under the wings of a Sadguru in this life. We seekers are fortunate to be blessed with a spiritual organisation like the Sanatan Sanstha and Incarnate Guru like H.H. Dr. Athavale.
    If we utilise even a little kriyaman karma (Wilful action) for sadhana which we are performing under their guidance, we can make swift progress towards Moksha.

Importance of 60% level in Spirituality

     Like companies that publish reports of their financial position, activities etc., this is a monthly report of spiritual growth of Sanatan Sanstha and Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (which is on the path of spiritual practice under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha). This unique report highlights the spiritual progress of seekers.
Let us sincerely and constantly express our gratitude to H.H. Dr. Athavale for this.
  1. It is easier to detach from Maya (Great Illusion - due to which sanskars have formed), and give up all materialistic objects.
  2. Since Anand (Bliss) is being experienced, the thought of comfort, not only in this world, but also in Heaven, does not come to the mind.
  3. Their body, the objects they use emit Divine fragrance.
  4. Dissolution of the mind begins, and it becomes easier to absorb thoughts from the universal mind.
  5. Such seekers are able to perform spiritual healing on seekers who have severe distress due to the adverse effect of negative energies.
    6. After death, such seekers get liberated from the cycle of birth and death, and they get a place in Maharlok.
   7. Due to generation of a strong desire for God-realisation, their onward journey in the higher subtle regions is smooth. - Dr. Athavale (Source of  Inspiration for Sanatan Sanstha)

It is difficult to be free from cycles of birth and death without the Guru’s grace

For that it is important to increase Sharanagat Bhav !
Mrs. Soumya Kudervalli
      Sharanagat bhav (Spiritual emotion of surrender) is called the king of spiritual qualities. To be able to progress fast, it is important for a seeker to have this quality. Seekers should work consistently to develop this quality. Guidance provided by Shrikrushna to Mrs. Soumya Kudervalli on this is given ahead.
      1. The major difference between seekers who have progressed and those who have not is the difference in the percentage of sharanagat bhav they possess.
     Droupadi had immense faith in and devotion for Shrikrushna; yet, when she was being disrobed, in the beginning she tried to resist, holding onto her sari. At that time she gave more importance to her image instead of devotion and sharanagat bhav for Shrikrushna.

Difference between Bharatiya and foreign seekers in relation to the sacrifice of body-mind-wealth

     In sadhana (Spiritual practice), body-mind-wealth have to be sacrificed. In relation to this, the following difference is seen in Bharatiya and foreigners.
     1. Bharatiya seekers : Comparatively it is easier for them to sacrifice body-mind than wealth. The reason for this is their feeling that if they are unable to do sadhana and if they have to return to worldly affairs, will they get a job or not ? It is because of such thoughts that they feel they need to save some money.
     2. Foreign seekers : Comparatively it is easier for them to sacrifice wealth than body-mind. There are two reasons for this as given ahead.
     A. The mind-body of foreigners is more Raja-Tama-predominant than Bharatiyas due to their western life-style and hence, it is difficult for them to sacrifice their mind-body.
     B. They are not worried about money, because if they are unable to do sadhana and if they have to go back to worldly life, they are assured that they will get a job. It is also a fact that their Governments provide unemployment benefits.
               - Dr. Athavale (Magha Krushna Paksha 4, Kaliyug Varsh 5114 [1.3.2013])

Steps in the journey towards God-realisation

     1. Kartrudharma : In the beginning, God explains to a jiva (Embodied soul) its kartrudharma in its journey towards God-realisation. Kartrudharma means undertaking each act as per the codes of conduct laid down by Hindu Dharma.
     2. Karmadharma : Karmadharma means understanding the spiritual science underlying each act and behaving accordingly.
     3. Sanskardharma : Sanskardharma means handing over the baton of sanskars to the next generation after contemplating on the spiritual science in each act and trying consistently with an aim to realise God.
                - A Scholar (Through the medium of Mrs. Anjali Gadgil, 15.4.2006)
A necessary pillar for obtaining Bliss in a fast paced life !
     Spiritual practice is the only way to conquer the spiritual causes of unhappiness in human life. Read Sanatan’s Holy texts that guide on why and how to practice Spirituality in a scientific way.

Benefit from Dharmasatsangs of Sanatan & HJS

Programmes produced by Sanatan Sanstha and Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) are being transmitted through local cable channels. 
     Hindus should try to contact cable operators for starting transmission of these Dharmasatsangs and prepare themselves to observe Dharma (Righteousness) by taking benefit of these Dharmasatsangs.
Over 57,27,865 viewers are benefitting from these Dharmasatsangs
Local Cable Operators now airing Dharmasatsangs
Haryana (3 Operators), Maharashtra (12 Operators),
Goa (3 Operators), Karnataka (20 Operators)

Required : Full-time seekers for Coordination etc. in Sanatan’s Sections

     Sanatan Sanstha’s precious treasure of Divine Knowledge is available in Marathi, Hindi, English, Gujarati, other Bharatiya and foreign languages. Thousands of Holy texts will be published from this treasure.
     Holy texts with this Divine Knowledge have to be published before the 3rd World War begins - because, due to unavailability of basic infrastructure later, it will not be possible to publish Holy texts. We require seekers (and others interested) who can correct translations of Sanatan’s Holy texts to be published.
