Foreword

Aum Sri Ganeśaya Namah...

Aum Sri Sarasvatyai Namah...

Aum Sri Gurubhyoh Namah...

Aum Sri Sai Ram

In all humility, with 'adoration replete', I seek an infinitesimal drop of the ever glistening pure, pristine, invincible and eternal grace of Beloved Bhagawan, in order to pen a few lines as regards this most heartening treatise... an unwavering, unflinching beacon through any kind of internal and external storm that serves to illumine the path, the way, each step towards the highest mode of living, being and becoming...that which the Master wants each of us to become.

The manner in which I am inspired to perceive this manuscript is that - it has two authors.

The first is Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba Himself and the second is His dearest bhakta and fond associate - Sri N.S. Venkateshvaran, who has intrinsically as well as consciously allowed his association with the Lord Incarnate in human form to brim, brew, percolate and bring to the fore from within...all that is Divine...

Absolutely aware that 'the devotee, the path, the flow of devotion and the Supreme Being' transcend barriers and do not need a channel of words, yet, he stepped beyond his mother tongue Tamil...and learnt Telugu so as to refine, attune and fine tune his understanding, communion.

and connection with the Lord and the language. He chose as a communication medium for His latest Advent completely approachable, his spiritual talks are a delight as Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai. Being steadfastly centred, nectareous and mellifluous. More so because...akin to his for any participant. He makes spirituality flavoursome, Master...during his talks, he spontaneously, endearingly sings couplets and verses, some of which flow through these pages. Hence, his spiritual meets are lovingly welcomed and appreciated by all. He is solemn when required, yet, there is a fair speckling of humour that swirls with a twinkle in his eye when one interacts with him. So too, often his emotions gush unrestrained, radiating ceaseless adoration for Bhagawan when the talk sensitively centres around Him.

Every second spent with Beloved Bhagawan has been valued and savoured...not a moment of his blessed association with the Avatar has been allowed to be forgotten, wasted or lost. This is what one experiences through exchanges with him. A shadow may feel separation from its origin, however, Venkatesh Uncle, as the author is known to many (...and Beloved Bhagawan affectionately referred to him as 'Venkatesh'...!) forever exudes Oneness with His Source. And, the same tender, gentle love of the Source flows from him to all beings around him, be it for the mineral, plant, animal or the world of mortals.

It is this unconditional love that compels him to painstakingly work for the upliftment of all, to make each one arise and pay heed to the clarion call of the cherished Master, to awaken to the Divinity within and beyond, knowing each person has the wherewithal, but is hitherto ignorant of it or has neglected it having relegated it to gather rust and dust upon the backseat.

Introduction

Bhaja Govindam Bhaja Govindam Govindam Bhaja Mudha-Mate Sampräpte Sannihite Kale Nahi Nahi Rakşati Dukrikarane

Chant Govinda, Chant Govinda, Chant Govinda, Oh Fool! At the time of your death, Rules of grammar will not save you...

Bhagvatpada Shankaracharya was a great thinker, and the greatest advaitic philosopher, an inspired champion of Hinduism and one of the most vigorous missionaries of our great country -Bharat.

Sri Shankara crossed the ocean of "Maya' as easily as one steps over a small channel in an agricultural field. He wrote a number of Vedantic works for imparting the knowledge of the 'Self

It was during that time, when our society was ready for any ideal principle to thrive, that the lovely value of 'Ahimsa' (non-injury), Self Control, Love and Peace of Buddha came into existence in a big way. However, the followers of Buddha appeared on the scene, he noticed a large section of the people precipitated different viewpoints and, by the time Shankara turning to a certain atheistic school of belief. It was during such a chaotic intellectual atmosphere that Shankara brought out his life-giving philosophy of 'Advaita' non dual philosophy of Brahman.

Thus, Shankara was able to provide an impetus to people of those days to come back to their own native thoughts and ideology. Shankara began to propagate the great, immense, enormous and boundless philosophical truth of the Upanisats, thereby rediscovering through them the true cultural basis of our great nation-Bharat.*

a vast Shankara has accomplished programme of Advaita within a span of twenty effective years, for, at the age of thirty-two, he had finished his work and folded up his manifestation among the mortals of this world.*

Shankara composed a number of hymns to foster the sense of devotion in the hearts of men. One such is 'Bhaja Govindam'. This is one of the seemingly smaller but in fact an extremely important work of Adi Shankara. Bhaja Govindam illustrates the fundamentals of Vedanta Philosophy in simple musical verses, so that from the tender years of early childhood, children can grow up amidst the melody of Advaita. The musical rhythm in these stanzas makes it easy even for children to remember and repeat these verses that are expressively eloquent and vividly impressive. For an intelligent youth, sincere study of this poem can remove all his delusions (Moha) and thus the poem is also called 'Moha Mudgara'...where Mudgara unfolds to mean a 'Hammer"
