July Chitra Puja

At the end of last phase, the Aadheenam celebrated the Chitra nakshatra with our monthly abhishekam to Gurudeva's Tiruvadi in Kadavul Temple. In the evening, monks and local church members gathered to honor Gurudeva and receive his blessings. Natyam Nandinatha and Sadhaka Jayanatha performed the abhishekam as other monks chanted Sri Rudram. Upon completion of the Rudram, the rest of the puja continued in silence. Gurudeva's love and blessing could be easily felt as the puja reached it's subtle hights. Jai Gurudeva! Aum Namah Sivaya.

"Look to the satgurus, who have themselves met and overcome the challenges that still lie ahead for you. Look to them and ask them to help you to look within yourself. Much of the mysticism which is the greatest wealth of Hinduism is locked within these masters, who in our tradition are known as the satgurus, the sages and the siddhas." Gurudeva

\"All gurus differ one from another depending on their parampara, their lineage, as well as on their individual nature, awakening and attainments. Basically, the only thing that a guru can give you is yourself to yourself.\"

\"The idea is to change the patterns of life, not to perpetuate them. That would be the only reason one would want to find a satguru.\"

\"We only see opposites when our vision is limited, when we have not experienced totally. There is a point of view which resolves all contradictions and answers all questions. Yet to be experienced is yet to be understood.\"

\"Make everything that you do satisfy the inner scrutiny of your inner being. Do a little more than you think that you are able to do.\"

\"Work hard, strive to accomplish, strengthen the will by using the will. But remember, \

With love in the will, the spirit is free.\'\"'
