Beard of Sri Sri

When Guruji was too young he started teaching yogas. His name was spread over the world & everyone wanted to see him, meet him. But no one had seen him before. That time he was looking a college going guy. He went to a foreign country for Art of living. Peoples were listening his talk. But surprisingly on one knew that the person who is giving talk is none another than Guruji. After the program gets finished peoples gathered to that `little boy’ & asked “Where is Guruji?”

Guruji laughed & said, “I am Guruji!”

No one could believe that he is Guruji.

Same story used to repeat in different different events.

Peoples used to think the person who has long beard is Yoga teacher or spiritual teacher.

Then Guruji decided to grow Beard for the peoples otherwise they won’t believe I am Guruji.

 

Stay connected to know how Guruji changed dress style from casuals to spiritual cloths.

Sahana Bhavatu

Guruji says before eating anything we must pray & chant the mantra `Sahana Bhavatu’.

When Sri Sri was young since then he got the habit of praying before eating. When Guruji used to offer chocolate to Bhanu maa, she used to get so excited to eat chocolate. As she starts eating chocolate Guruji used to catch her hand & forced her to chant the mantra.

So you also chant the mantra before eating anything.

JGD!

Transformation

In a talk Guruji was saying, “Now time has come. Whole world will become spiritual & all negative energy will vanish.”

On this knowledge someone asked Guruji, “But Guruji, we see robbery, bribe, and crime everywhere. Everywhere is corruption so how can we say world will be good now?”

Guruji replied, “When a building collapse everywhere dust particles get spread, We can not see anything but dust everywhere. Then only we can make new building on same place, same way now you are looking negativity everywhere. But don’t worry, it is a hint of transformation.”

That person again asked Guruji, “How do you know this?”

Laughingly Guruji answered, “Engineer knows the plan!”

 

Plane accident

Guruji was travelling by airplane with few volunteers. It was a wonderful day. Guruji & volunteers were spending quality time. Plane was getting ready for landing. While pilot started landing the plane a problem in plane engine occurred. Very rapidly plane started moving towards land. Volunteers started screaming. They knew within one minute they will die. All were afraid shouting. Then Guruji said him to stop screaming. Guruji said, “Let’s Meditate.”

 One of the volunteer replied, “How can we meditate Guruji? Within a span we are going to die.”

Guruji answered, “But what if we stay alive after a time? We are wasting out 1 minute time. In this time we can meditate or if we stay alive after accident then we will regret that we wasted or 1 minute of life.”

Everyone agreed to Guruji & did a shortest meditation.

Because of guru’s grace nothing happened to plane & before getting crash plane took off once again.

Wedding Mantras

                Guruji was travelling with some devotees to a place by car. They passed a marriage hall. A wedding was going on in that hall. The pandit was chanting mantras for the wedding. After hearing those mantras Guruji said driver to stop the car.

                Guruji went in that hall & stopped the pandit from chanting the mantras & asked,

“Ye kya hai?”

“Wedding mantra’s.” he replied.

Then Guruji told him, “these are not wedding mantras, ye to shradhah (mantra which use for last ceremony of died people) ke mantra hai.”

That pandit was not well literate in vedas thus instead of giving blessing to the newly wedding he was chanting shraddhah mantras.

In the ashram we have wedding hall where weddings happens in ancient style with correct mantras.
