Jai Panduranga!


Several spots on earth do exist
Where the blessed lord makes his presence felt

The abode of Lord Vishnu on Earth
After visiting which people do not experience any dearth

On the banks of the river Chandrabhaga
With mother Rukmai on a brick stands Panduranga

The varkaris long to go to Pandharapura
To get the blessed vision of Mother Rukmai and Lord Vitthala

Royally adorned is the dear Lord
To describe his beauty is really hard

One glimpse is not enough to know him
He is ever in the mind of those who enter his realm

Playful as ever is Lord Krishna
How can I fathom your actions oh husband of Rama

Of Madhu you are the slayer
To mother Yashoda you are a dear

Sang your glory did Pundalika
Then came your blessed devotee Namadeva

You made a miser of nine crores called Navakoti Narayana
To become a renounciate servant of yours called Purandara Daasa

You played with Janabai as a child with his mother
How many more stories of yours can I gather?

You showed that true devotion to you is dear
Showered your grace on Chokar Mahar

You incarnated as Jnanadeva the boy saint
Explained the Bhagavat Gita in words quaint

Started the tradition of Varkari
Yearly piligrimage to Pandhari

In water,plants and trees did you appear
To Savata Mali the gardener

In water,clay and fire did you appear
To Ghora Kumbhara the potter

The village of Mangalvedha you blessed
By Bhaktha Damaji Pant were you worshipped

In the ancient village of Prathishtana
You helped your devotee Eknaatha

When the gatha was drowned in Chandrabhaaga
You brought it back unharmed to Tukaraama

When the Yavanas tried to capture him
You appeared as several Shivaji's in your realm

You appeared as divine Lord Rama
To the great Samartha Ramadaasa

To Narahari sonar did u appear as Lord Shiva
Proved there is no difference between Hari and Hara

What words can describe your glory
He who knows you is your image verily

Bless me with devotion eternal
Apart from you everything is unreal

Let me always hanker for your vision
Let chanting your name be my mission

I seek refuge in your lotus feet
You are here, there and in the next street

You are known for your devotees as the protector
Maya is like in the river an aligaotor

Remembering your name drives away illusion
Gives one the required emancipation

Turn your merciful grace towards me
Let your image always in my mind be

--Dedicated to the lotus feet of Panduranga who is none other than the Sadguru

Swami Samarth Tarak Mantra

Om Shree Ganeshaya Namaha! Shree Saraswatyai Namaha! Shree Kuladevatyai Namaha! Om Shree Sainaathaya Namaha! Om Shree Swami Samarthaaya Namaha! Verily we must have firm faith in the lotus feet of the Sadguru. For why else are we his devotees. We must surrender completely to him and think always that he knows best. His powers are immesurable and he is the lord and indweller of one and all. He is the Parabrahma of the Vedas and the Allah of the Koran. While describing him, the Vedas merely said "Neti Neti" (Not this, Not this). What then is the way for me? Is it not haughty of me to think I can describe his glory? I cannot, and all I can ever do is submit my ego before his lotus feet. By submitting my speech,hearing and all senses to him. When this is done, he alone will get the work done through the devotee who earnestly wishes to sing his glory. I pray to Sadguru Sainath to help me, nay to use me as an instrument and describe his boundless glory. Sometimes we are overwhelme...

||Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha||    ||Om Shree Saraswatyay Namaha||        ||Om Shree Gurave Namaha||    ||Om Shree Kuladevatyay Namaha||    Om Jai Sairam! Blessed are those who resort to the feet of the Sadguru.The Sadguru protects us like a mother. His attention is ever on his children and he never allows them to be hurt ever! Today another incident proved that the Sadguru is ever looking after his devotees. Today I was in great agitation at my own helplessness and I was afraid that my image was tarnished for no fault of mine. But then Sainath came to my rescue and calmed the raging storm within me. I woke up today after a small nap. I was awakened by a phone call. A dear relative had called over the phone and the person seemed to be upset that I was fit enough to visit the Sai temple during Guru Pournima and yet I was not in a position to visit them. You see I had visited the temple on Guru Pournima and I had put...

My father has the darshan of Swami Maharaj in his dream

Om Jai Sai Ram! Om Shree Swami Samarh ! One must have firm faith in his sadguru . By fully surrendering one's mind,body and actions to the Sadguru ,one can sail smoothly in the ocean called samsara (life), which is full of tornadoes and hurricanes and reach the destination, viz union with brahman . As long as we have the "I" or ego, it is indeed hard for us to cross this ocean of Samsara . I therefore submit my ego to my Sadguru , and pray to his lotus feet, to help me sing his glory, which has no beginning and no end. All the scriptures of all the religions world over are not sufficient to describe his splendor and glory and fully describe him. I bow humbly to the lotus feet of Shree Gurudeva Dattatreya , and pray to him, who has looked after my like a mother to guide me. He alone is mother,father,friend, brother. He is all in all. He has infinite compassion and love for his devotees like a mother caring for her child ( Bhaktha vatsalya ). Oh Sadguru , please h...
