Pujananda Maharaj: Nithyanandam His Holiness Shri Rameshwar Puriji has given a scintillating talk. A brief of that talk is just translated. As he said Kashi is Triloke Nari means in all the three lokas (worlds), it is above all the three. Kashi does not belong to the Planet Earth. In Bhuvana Purana it was told, when a person leaves his body, with Lord Vishwanatha gives the Taraka Mantra, and with the Taraka Mantra his liberation happens. For that purpose, thousands of people comes to Kashi to live their last life here, and Matha Annapurna Devi takes care how everybody who lives here and Mother always takes care that everybody is fed in Kashi in whichever Kshetra he live. And he explains how a person who remains inside the sansara in bogayoni when he crosses through 89 yonis in manushya in the human body his liberation by following the path. The path is by explained by Swamiji thousands of devotees is the path for achieving liberation. The person who serves the society, who is in the state of ananda, when they comes to Nithyananda they attain to the permanent state of bliss. Swamiji [Nithyananda] is the son of Annapurna Devi who gives the blessings to fulfill and in the path of liberation for the sanatana dharma. In Kashi along with 33 crore devatas Swamji and the blessings of Swamiji,the persns who lives in Kashi are graced for the spreading of sanatana dharma. Now Swamji has told that in forty countries he is establishing in Sanatana Dharma. In times to come, billions of people will follow the path explained by Swamiji and will achieve the state of liberation. With His heart pouring in he offers pranam to Swamiji (Paramahamsa Nithyananda) for his contribution to the Hindu religion for Sanatana Dharma, and the work He is doing for achieving for giving the path of liberation to people all across the world. Now, Acharyaji Dr. Ramnarayan Dubey is going to offer his speech.

Acharyaji Dr. Ramnarayan Dubey address in Hindi

[33:32]

Pujananda Maharaj: Nithyanandam. Acharya Dr. Ramnarayan Dubeyji, a brief of his talk in English. Dwivedi has mentioned Yoga is the path of liberation. In Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna defines Yogaha Karmasu Kaushalam. It means everybody has to perform the required action whether he is a sanyasi, when he is a sannyasi he has to do sannyasi karma. If he is a householder, he takes care of the house and does the karmas related to that. So everybody has to follow their duties that is their…. that is the karma. Yogaha Karmasu Kaushalam, when they do it with their perfection, they achieve the state of Yoga. Just not performing asana is not yoga. When they go through the stages of Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana, Samadhi, they achieve the state of Yoga. The paddhatis that have been explained by Swamiji is the Sanatana paddhati, the paddhati of original Hindu text. The way Swamiji has expounded the path of Yoga, He Himself is considered as Krishna, Lord Krishna. The path through which the person comes out of the bandhana, means the state of conflict, is the path of Vedanta. This is achieved slowly and slowly. It cannot be achieved all of a suddenly. With the grace of the Master only the liberation is achieved. When Dubeyji has come in contact with Swamiji in the last few days he has experienced something great in the last few days in the presence of Swamiji by which, by the virtue of which He is so perfect, the only Saint in India who has offered the path of liberation by awakening the Kundalini energy, the Kundalini Shakthi, in thousands of people at a time. And all these paddhatis are oldest reviving the Hindu culture, reviving the Sanatana dharma, reviving the text expounded in the upanishads, the Vedic vigyan, the Vedic science is going to achieve its glory again in the presence of Swamiji. And the paths that have been explained by Swamiji is going to help billions in the world. Thank you!
