SHREE MANGALCHANDIKA PRAPATTI
Women shall offer the Shree Mangal Chandika Prapatti on the day of Sankranti i.e.

Shree Mangal Chandika Prapatti

"The Meaning of Sadguru" - by Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu
It was the occasion of birthday of Sadguru Shri Aniruddha Bapu's on 21st November 2010. The celebration went ahead on for next two days till 23rd November 2010. On the final day of celebrations on 23rd November 2010 Param Poojya Bapu graced everyone by giving a discourse on the extremely important subject of "The Meaning of Sadguru". Before actually discoursing on the subject, Bapu reassured all the Shraddhavans that He is always with them even when they are committing sins (so that He keeps the sinner as much away from committing the sin as possible). Hence we can and should chant Bapu's name even when we are committing sins so that their effect and occurrence gradually reduces. Before starting with the actual subject Bapu complimented all the Shraddhavans by saying "I am proud of you all and I LOVE YOU".
"The Meaning of Sadguru" - by Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu
>> SADGURU is the most simplest and the best(est, est, est, est, est.........) thing in the world.
>> After going through 84,000 forms (योनी) a soul takes human form. And hence every person has the seeds (traits) of all these forms in him. Thats the reason why every animal is present in human body (प्राणमय देह).
>> These are the seeds that bring sorrow in the human life. Bapu exemplified this as follows; snake gives us trait of anger, rabbit gives fear, dog gives barking (blaming others), fox gives theft, etc.
>> SADGURU is the only 'expert hunter' of all these animals who take shelter in our minds.
>> These are the seeds that bring sorrow in the human life. Bapu exemplified this as follows; snake gives us trait of anger, rabbit gives fear, dog gives barking (blaming others), fox gives theft, etc.
>> SADGURU is the only 'expert hunter' of all these animals who take shelter in our minds.
>> Once SADGURU kills any animal from our mind that animal vanishes from one's life not only for this birth but forever for all the future births as well.
>> But when a human tries to kill these animals the 'hunter gets hunted' (In this case a normal human being).
>> This is what even Jesus Christ has described in bible by quoting "Do not kill evil by force. Only HE is capable of doing it".
>> SADGURU is Lord Dattaguru's 'Order' and Adimata's 'Grace' which is ever changing as humans are also ever changing. SADGURU is bliss and favours ever form from its birth.
>> SADGURU protects our aura continuously. This is called 'Uniqueness'. This aura is given to us because of love Dattaguru and Adimata on this earth.
>> SADGURU's symbol is Number 1. Number 1 is very, very, very important and the rules of mathematics originate from 1. (Zero gets it value only after it comes after 1 and not when it is before it).
>> SADGURU exists only for those who love atleast one form of Lord (Parmatma.) For others SADGURU doesn't exist at all. (The Lord here means any holy form for Parmatma worshipped in any religion).
>> SADGURU is our providence. HE is everyone's private property.
>> But when a human tries to kill these animals the 'hunter gets hunted' (In this case a normal human being).
>> This is what even Jesus Christ has described in bible by quoting "Do not kill evil by force. Only HE is capable of doing it".

>> SADGURU is our providence. HE is everyone's private property.
>> SADGURU was, is and would be fully for us (individually for everyone).
>> SADGURU supplies joy and happiness to everyone without hurting others.
>> If SADGURU is in our life then devil has no entry in our life.
>> In the last second of my life I must see HIM with HIS arms spread to take me to an area unknown to humans which is filled with bliss. (Heavenly abode or भर्गलोक).
>> I as a human (his Shraddhavan) I would celebrate every second of my life and not moan. I will not kneel down in front of anybody, not be scared of anybody, not even SADGURU but should rather have respectful love for HIM.
>> Why does SADGURU need to take birth on this earth? Can't HE do HIS intended work from above (भर्गलोक)? The answer to this is, HE takes birth to accelerate the processes (of purification and correction of the worldly order) so that work that needs 100 births for us to be completed can be accomplished in just 1 birth.
>> SADGURU's Look (रूप), Name (नाम) and Praise (गुण संकिर्तन) is extremely important for us. They enrich each other in cyclic manner.
>> We should not forget HIM as we have been related with HIM for all our births.
>> We should literally drink HIS Looks through our eyes (रूप). Should look at HIM again and again, look at HIS picture, HIS movements, HE Himself. This in-turn imparts us Name (नाम) and Praise (गुण संकिर्तन).
>> HIS sight itself overtakes other animal forms and takes control of them.
>> Chanting of HIS name kills the animals in our minds, HIS praise opens the roads of our development and removes hurdles in our life.
>> Once we start doing this we would start feeling our SADGURU perpetually in our life. The proof to this point is Bapu Himself as this is exactly the same feeling that HE has for HIS Sadguru (Lord Dattaguru and Goddess Adimata).
>> If we consider Bapu as our SADGURU then HE would not deny this consideration as this is the order to Bapu from Lord Dattaguru and Goddess Adimata as Their love is the reason of existence of Bapu. (Lord Dattaguru is the 'Father in the Sky').
>> Bapu would always love us even if we don't love HIM or even spit or bark at HIM. HE only thinks of our well being.
>> "I would never forsake you" is the promise of Bapu to everyone.
>> We as Bapu's children would never be orphans, be abandoned, be poor because Lord Dattaguru has sent Bapu here for providence and not abandonment.
>> We as Bapu's children would never suffer from silence of God as it is Bapu's promise to everyone of us and that this is HIS promise to everyone of us.
>> SADGURU is always confidant (विश्वासपात्र ) of HIS devotees.
Finally the celebrations ended with a melodious Satsang which interestingly had Bapu Himself singing few of the gajars.
>> SADGURU supplies joy and happiness to everyone without hurting others.

Aniruddha Poornima 2010
The long awaited day for which we all Shraddhavans wait eagerly wait for the entire year is finally to be celebrated on 21st November 2010. Yes, its the birthday of our beloved Param Poojya Aniruddha Bapu, which we better know as Aniruddha Poornima. This year's Aniruddha Poornima would be celebrated by Aniruddha Upasana Trust and its associated organisations on Sunday, 21st November 2010 as said earlier.
To remind all the readers, P. P. Bapu doesn't accept any gifts may it be in form of money, sweets, flowers, gift articles, precious metals, etc. As He has been telling us for so many years He only expects and accepts our Bhakti (Devotion), Prem (Love) and Seva (Service). The only exception to gifts being the Indian sweetmeat called as Appe which are P. P. Bapu's favourite and can certainly be offered. But again as Bapu doesn't accept anything from anyone these Appes are inturn distributed to all the visiting devotees as Prasad.
Visitors are requested to refrain from bringing Kapur (Camphor) Aarti. Also it would be great if visitors could carry an Uparna (shoulder cloth) individually. Carrying an uparna is believed to be extremely holy and helps the person to maximise his receivings of holy waves (Spandan).
Timings of the Celebrations:
Morning 10:00 am to evening 9:00 pm
