Janmashatmi Celebrations 2009

Its said , when in love even objects come to life...

Our special guest of the evening, "Laddu Gopalji" :)

Taking bath with milk,honey,curd,sugar and Ghee
(Wow! What natural cleaners ,scrub ,soap and conditioners)


Special Jhoola gifted and decorated by Sachin


Which clothes?which earings?which necklace? which crown ?It was really difficult to choose!


We prayed and meditated to invoke him.

Its said , when in love even objects come to life, And this was the Lord himself :)



The little gopal came live to be with us on this day:)

BHAKTI (Devotional Love) Contains FOUR LETTERS: bha, ka, ta and i. Bha means fulfillment and nourishment; ka is a means of knowing; ta means redeeming, saving, salvation; i(ee) is energy, shakti.
Bhakti nourishes you. Bhakti is the right Knowledge,the means of knowing. When bhakti is there,doubts don't come. Bhakti saves you. Bhakti gives you the most energy.
Sri Sri
(Knowledge sheet no.62)



And all the Gopis and the Gopas danced to the tunes of 'jhoola jhoole nandlala' ,'Krishna Govinda' ,'Bolo Narayana' and more, intoxicated in divine love.

Jai Gurudev

I felt so special on being called by Vasudi for this special occasion. Had she not persuaded me to leave everything in office and run, I would have easily missed a lot of fun.

i was with the divine on janmasthami, with abslutely no signs of rain but Bharat bhaiyya(My TTC Phase 2 teacher)said "Aaj to Janmashtami hai baarish to hoogi hee". At about 11.50 we were in Baus room and it started pouring down so hard,we waited till late like 1.30.But there were no signs of rain subsiding and top it there was no electricity in ashram , it was pitch dark.Ultimately avinash droped 6-7 of us to aparna gate and annapoorna. What thrilling experience it was. Now i know what that night must have been like, when vasudev carried the lord of the universe on his head across Yamuna.

Frankly, I was living a Split Personality that night! A part of me was in the ashram with Krishna Himself, and a part of me was in 1303!

Someone asked Guruji about Krishna and He said, "Oh you have no idea how much trouble Krishna went through"! :) And then some devotee said, "Yeah. We only know how much trouble He created!! YOU would know how much trouble He went through"! :)

I think its damn cool to have the luxury of having Krishna both in idols and in flesh with us right now!!!

HOW UNIMAGINABLY FORTUNATE WE ARE!!!!

Jai Gurudev
