industriousness.

(O Prana) protect us like a mother protects her sons.
Give us prosperity and wisdom.

Quotes fromTHIRUKKURAL
‘’Water, water everywhere but not a drop
to drink!’’ This aptly suits the Tsunami days
when water devastated many lives having
caught people unawares. Those were the
days when people pined for a pot of water
for their very sustenance but when they
were ruthlessly woken from their sleep to
find themselves engulfed by water they were
aghast as water challenged their very
existence.
If this is the effect of Tsunami created by
nature, what about the Tsunamis happening
in our lives? Almost every human being born
on earth would have experienced at least
one Tsunami in their lifetime. Who is to be
blamed? When we opt to function through
the mind and not the heart Tsunamis tend
to occur in our lives. In grueling moments
we realize the mind is not enough to make
right decisions and it is then we feel the need
to reach the source of all knowledge - our
heart - and draw from there the required
solution. If we listen to the voice of our
conscience when confronted with
challenging situations all our problems could
be solved. When our entire life is in disarray
let us be firm like a rock and follow our
virtuous principles. Truly it is in the times of
crisis that we discover who we really are!
Let us take the ethical course of action
though we have to live with repercussions
on the worldly plane when Tsunami hits our
lives.
3One who has realized by himself his soul’s Self
will be worshiped by all other souls.
SWAMIJI'S MESSAGE
We perform many actions every day.
Action is going on constantly even when
sitting quietly. One follows the other.
You cannot stop the action. You might
get involved with one. An action can be
called a good action when it is supported
by a noble cause. The action which is
not acceptable as a noble cause, by the
world, by the society and not even by
you is bad. Then how to translate such
action into proper knowledge? How to
transform that knowledge into wisdom?
This is where the Guru comes into the
picture. Guru will not stop you from
doing that action. Guru will not stop you
from doing anything. A guru will let you
express.
Guru will never ask you to drop anything.
Even if a disciple has some bad habits, a
real Guru will try to transform
differently. If needed, He would not
mind going to the pub with him and
discuss what enjoyment he derives from
it. He will help overcome the thin layer
that separates knowledge from
wisdom. Once you know how to
remove that barrier there is no
stopping!
When wisdom comes into the picture
Spiritual journey becomes smooth.
What you gain with effort is knowledge;
what comes to you effortlessly is
wisdom. And that indicates you are
advancing in your spiritual journey. In
this entire journey someone appears;
an inside voice- the Guru, your Inner
Self. When your heart speaks and you
follow it, it results in pure action. Sixth
sense is always working. But you don’t
know how to use it. This is your Guru.
Swami Vivekananda says that everyone
is divine. Your Guru also might tell you
that you are divine but YOU have to
experience that. You have to express
it and you can do that only through
silent and invisible actions. Only actions
that make an encounter with life are
true actions. Wisdom can never be
expressed externally. It has to be
expressed internally.
Bring wisdom in life and life in wisdom!

and to not harm living creatures.
ADHYATMIK PRANETA
Swami Shivanandamayi
SURYANAMASKARAS - MANTRAS
Suryanamaskaras or salutation to Sun
God are a part of Yoga. In ancient
culture Sun is worshiped as God. There
are 12 Suryanamaskaras. When we do
Suryanamaskaras we chant particular
Mantra. Mantra is a combination of
alphabets. Our sages during their deep
meditation have perceived and heard
the sounds of certain alphabets which
turned out to be Mantras. Mantras
impart knowledge and give us insight.
While doing Suryanamaskaras, for every
posture a different mantra is chanted.
When we chant the first mantra Om
Mitraya Namaha- Om is the Pranava, it
is the Janani of all the mantras. In the
traditional way of chanting after Om and
before Sun Mantras we have Bija
Mantras. Sun is our friend.
We have seven chakras or psychik centers
in our body called Muladhara,
Swadistana, Manipura, Anahata,
Vishuddi, Ajna and Sahasrara. The Bija
mantras pertaining to these chakras
might not be decipherabal, yet they are
very powerful. While chanting Om Hram
mitraya Namaha, we have to
concentrate on Anahata Chakra. We fold
our hands in front of our heart where
the chakra is located. Similarly other
chakras are activated through different
mantras and postures.
‘Ravaye Namaha’ is invoking the Sun's
grace to shine in life like the Sun God.
Suryaya Namaha is salutation to Sun
God riding on a chariot drawn by 7
horses which represents the 7 lokas.
Sun is the head of all these lokas. Seven
horses represent seven rainbow
colours.
‘Banave Namaha ‘is praying to the Sun
God to rise and remove the darkness in
our lives to lead us from mortal to
immortality.
‘Khagaya Namaha’ we offer our
homage to the Sun ,by whom time is
measured.
‘Pushne Namaha’ is salutation to Sun
God, who nourishes us.
‘Hiranyagarbhaya Namaha’ is
salutation to the Sun who appears like
a Golden egg of cosmic energy.
‘Marichaye Namaha’ is praying the Sun
God to remove the mirage and show
us the reality.
‘Adityaya Namaha’ is salutation to Sun
who is the son of Aditi.
‘Savitre Namaha’ - We pray the rising
Sun for stimulation of our
consciousness.
‘Arkaya Namaha’ is praying for energy
to function properly in this world.
‘Bhaskaraya Namaha’ is salutation to
the one who reveals the Truth.
It has always proved to be beneficial
when Suryanamaskaras are chanted
mentally.

Annapurna R.Annapurna R.Annapurna R.Annapurna R.Annapurna R.
The lotus flower rises to the level of water. Greatness of men
rise with mental strength.
There is more than one way of doing
things right. If everyone did things in
one single fashion, this world wouldn’t
have been this colourful and interesting
enough for us to look forward to waking
up every morning! If we look at our lives
from this perspective, we can cherish
this life in this world manifold.
Many parents get all worked up about
their children being not
interested in Science or
Math adding stress and
limiting joy. Would the
world be the same place
if there were no artists,
linguists, chefs,
journalists, sports
persons etc? We are reaping the
consequences of over enthusiasm in the
area of computer technology. Not to
mention the dire job situation of
computer professionals, the country is
experiencing dearth of expertise in
other professions.
The more judgmental, opinionated and
critical we are, more prone are we to
increased levels of stress and a cause of
pain to our neighbors. Open mind,
flexibility and acceptance are the
qualities we should strive for if we want
to move towards Spirituality. In some
LIVE AND LET LIVE! situations it helps to think ‘why a person
had to do a thing’ than just seeing
‘what the person did’ that earned our
displeasure.
Many times I hear people sing glories
of yester years whether it is about
music, movies, literature, friendships,
education …that the beauty and
achievements of today go unnoticed! I
agree that they are different, might not
appeal to us, but don’t mean they are
bad. As long as we don’t
compromise on values
that string our lives,
families, country and
world together, the best
way to face these life
style changes is to
accept them. In nature,
when population of one minute
organism like a mosquito decreases, the
entire food chain and the ecological
balance of the whole habitat are
affected. With so many changes in way
of life shouldn’t we be prepared for
some changes in areas encompassing
our lives? Every single moment that we
are experiencing is the consequence of
a seed we have sown ‘sometime’
earlier. Keeping in mind that today is
tomorrow’s yesterday, let us not wait
till tomorrow to appreciate today!

A help rendered in hour of need, though small,
is greater than the world. 7
TULSIDAS JAYANTI
At Nachiketa Tapovan, on July 28th
afternoon at 1p.m. Goswami Sant
Tulsidas’s Birthday was celebrated with
humble reverence to the realized Saint
poet who sung the glories of Sri Rama in
common man’s language as Ram
Charitmanas and handed us all the
powerful Hanuman Chalisa.
All the children, teachers and volunteers
assembled in honor of the poet. The
program started with one of the
volunteer teachers lighting the lamp
and narrating the life story of the
Valmiki-incarnate, Rama Bhakta, Sant
Tulsidas with Swamiji’s blessings. Mataji
Swami Shivanandamayi conveyed the
message of His life and its Spiritual
significance to the children as a simple
and appealing story that the listeners
experienced the bliss of the Bhakti
Bhava of Sri Hanuman and Sri Rama
appearing to Tulsidas. Swamiji sang Ram
Bhajans with whom children sang along
and we all had the taste of the nectar of
Rama rasam.
RAKHI CELEBRATIONS
Rakhi was celebrated at Tapovan on
the morning of Wednesday the 5th
August in a very simple yet hearty
mood. All the children colorfully
dressed and adorned with smiles and
excitement, gathered at the
assembly hall. Swamiji, Mataji and
Vasundhara Ma presided over the
gathering. Mataji addressed the
children and talked about the
significance of Sravan Pournima. She
explained how the day is called Triveni
Sangamam because along with
Raksha Bandhan, Change of
Upanayanam thread and Worship of
Sagara, God of Ocean is also
performed on this day. The children
were all distributed Rakhis made by
them which they joyously tied on one
another’s wrist and also on their
favorite Swamiji’s and Mataji’s wrists.
After enjoying the Payasam made by
Jyoti Didi, a skit and some mingling
and fun everyone left home with
renewed bonds that will last forever!

1. Does a Guru give the same Mantra
to all his disciples?
Swamiji : One needs to have clarity
about his relationship with God before
deciding to take a mantra from his
Guru. He has to choose his Ishta Devata
and should not waver from his choice..
He should not be influenced by someone
in his decision of taking a mantra.
Everybody is not entitled to give
mantra. He has to experience himself
before giving initiation. If not, the
mantra given by him will be a mere
statement without having any effect.
A Guru knows his disciple’s past, present
and future and gives mantraaccording
to their nature and Ishta Devata when
the time is ripe. It is not necessary for a
Guru to give the same mantra for all his
disciples.
2. What is ‘Mouna’? What are the
benefits of practicing Mouna?
Swamiji: There are two types of Mouna.
One is Aantar mouna and the other is
Bahya mouna. Bahya mouna is easy to
practice but Aantar mouna is very
difficult as it demands no thought or a
state of thoughtlessness. In English we
call it “Silence or Silence State”. Bahya
mouna can be practiced by imposing
few rules on ourselves. But Aantar
mouna cannot be practiced by just
setting certain rules. It demands
greater understanding towards our
own mind and fine tuning of higher
energies to the divinity. Simply keeping
mouth shut will not make much
difference when our minds are
chattering. The true expression comes
out when our minds are still or
experiencing equipoise. Right now you
might be speaking or listening or
addressing gathering or writing or
helping or supporting the noble cause,
but it is not true action as it is coming
from chaos and not from silence. That
which comes from the silence is true
action. Therefore when we start
practicing Mouna, especially Aantar
mouna we encounter with our ‘Self’.
Any action that leads to divinity comes
from Silence and has greater impact
on every life. What we need in today’s
so called developed world is action
from Mouna. Mouna brings life into
life. Mouna when practiced brings
revolution in life and transforms
hundreds and thousands of lives. You
feel more calm and composed, devoted
and dedicated towards every action.
When understood and experienced
Mouna brings clarity in every action!

actions condemned by wise men.
Determined efforts result in prosperity;
idleness will bring nothing.
We are also extremely thankful to Dr. Sukhaveni from
Pranadha Hospital who rendered timely help by
conducting general health check-up on more than 100
patients and prescribed relevant medicines. Last but
not least we thank our enthusiastic volunteers who
actively participated in the camp by enrolling patients,
SPECIAL HEALTH CAMP
At Nachiketa
Tapovan, special
health check-up
and awareness
programs have
been going on
the first Sunday
of every month.
Doctors and other
health professionals
have regularly
visited the campus
and shared their
invaluable
expertise and
services.
The dawn of August 2nd 2009 witnessed the noble
involvement of Dr. Mohan’s Diabetes Speciality
Centre in Tapovan’s charitable activities. Dr.N.G.
Shastri responded immediately to our request and
conducted a screening and awareness camp for
diabetes which was staffed by Coordinator
organizing queues and
rendering prescribed
medicines. The patients left the
campus only after receiving tips
on yogic cure for their ailments
by Swami Shivanandamayi and
Spiritual Prasad from Swami
Nachiketananda who filled
their hungry bellies with the
food specially cooked by our
Karma yogis.
Sri Padmanabha Shastri and Lab
technicians Sri S Sayeed and
Sri Sanjeev Kumar. Over 75
patients were screened and
around 12 patients were
diagnosed with diabetes. Dr N.G.
Shastri counseled the patients on
preventive care. We thank Dr.
Mohan’s Diabetic Centre for such
a noble work and support to our
organization.

If you do not care for pleasure, you
will not be afraid of pain.11The great person will do things rare to do; The small cannot
do rare things.
The day’s menu on the chalk board
welcomes you into ‘Annapurna’ the
kitchen of Nachiketa Tapovan where not
only your souls but also your hungry
bellies are satiated with love. Swamiji
and Mataji make sure that no visitor
leaves Tapovan hungry. The person who
is behind the scenes refilling the
‘Akshaya Patra’ is Jyoti ‘Didi’ as lovingly
called by the children who feeds about
175 or at times even more hungry people
at a time.
With but a few helping hands, Jyoti very
ably manages the whole scene, does the
planning with Smt Vasundhara, shops for
all the provisions at the best prices,
stocks her kitchen, cooks the food each
day as per the menu and still manages
to go around Tapovan with a smile on
her face checking if a volunteer needs a
cup of tea or juice. I owe it to Jyoti for all
the hot cups of perfectly brewed elaichi
tea she treated me to on days I had colds
and Headaches.
In Jyoti’s words, “I love what I am doing.
I never imagined I would be cooking on
this scale for a noble cause like this.
Credit goes to Swamiji for making this
task of cooking and stocking up a part
of my Spiritual Sadhana. If not for the
encouragement and the energy I derive
from Him, I wouldn’t be able to do what
I am doing. I maintain my daily
schedule of Sadhana ordained by
Swamiji by waking up in the small hours
of the day, perform Agnihotra at Sunrise
and Sunset every day that help me
greatly in maintaining the clarity of
mind and purity of thought. We had lot
more fun on days when Swamiji used
to be a regular part of the team in
Kitchen!”ANNADATA SUKHIBHAVA.
ANNAPURNA
To say unpleasant things, when we have nice ones,
is like eating unripe fruit, ignoring sweet ripe fruits.
The Prashna Upanishad belongs to the
Atharva Veda. The Upanishad opens
with the story of six disciples Sukesa,
Satyakama, Gargya, Kausalya,
Bhargava and Kabandhi approaching
the great rishi Pippalada, seeking
clarification for the doubts lingering in
their minds after having fulfilled the
‘Apara-vidya’(science of world), with
fuel ( symbol of self-surrender) in their
hands. The great teacher after a
prescription of a year’s brahmacharya
and austerities answered their
questions about Prana and illumined
them that this creation is spiritual and
not mechanistic.
According to the Upanishad, the first
entity, the Cosmic mind projected the
Universe out of himself. His first
projection consists of the pair, Food or
Rayi (the matter)and Eater or Prana
(the energy). It describes Prana as the
life force in the individual being. Prana,
produced from Atman controls the five
senses of the individual body which is a
result of the actions and thoughts in the
previous life. It sustains the body
through all states of existence. By
meditating on Prana, the aspirant can
enjoy bliss and attain liberation.
The chief Prana, the nucleus of all
activities and energy in the body is the
ego-centre. Prana, Apana, Samana,
Vyana and Udana are the forms of
manifestations of the Chief prana
which from their respective provinces,
enable the physical organs perform
their functions.
At the time of death, the senses
gradually recede from the sense
organs and get absorbed in the mind.
F inally whose fire has been
extinguished, the soul along with the
mind (subtle body) is carried by Udana
out of the (physical) body. According
to the literal meaning of Upanishad,
at the time of death, the thoughts and
impressions of the lifetime (memory)
surface as desires, form a part of the
subtle body that leaves with Udana
and determine the course of the soul
to the consequent Punya loka or Papa
loka after death. We need to
understand here that the word ‘loka’
denotes the ‘field of actions’ in this
very world and not necessarily the
mythical Heaven or Hell. By nurturing
good and meaningful thoughts, one
shall not only enjoy peace in this life
but also the memory that goes out
with Udana will lead to a favourable
‘loka’ in the next birth. Thus we are
the authors of our destiny! It is never
too late to inculcate the right thinking
because intensity and purity of
thought is what matters.

DearAtmanNo man is an island. To fight the good
fight we need help. This has been the
basis for the Nachiketa Tapovan’s
inception and ensuing growth over the
last 10 years from a hut into a 3 storied-
building onto a 40 acre spiritual
complex. Imparting literacy to children
from impoverished families was the idea
with which the divine project started
before it grew into a multifarious
movement. All along Tapovan’s efforts
received great support from you all in
every way bringing fruition to the noble
intent..
The main focus has never shifted from
Vidya Mandir. Nachiketa Tapovan has
become the haven for the
underprivileged children who have
been nourished with not only milk and
food but also good academics
supplemented by the traditional values
of India. Vidya Mandir will be taking a
big stride this June from offering
Primary Education extending onto
Secondary Education. That is, this
academic year, Vidya Mandir will offer
classes ranging from LKG through 6th
grade.
It requires additional resources, both
monetary as well as human to fund this
progressive step. We hereby make a
fervent appeal for generous donations.
Please participate in this ‘Vidya Daana
Yaga’ being performed to benefit the
most deserving children and help pass
on the legacy of our Cultural heritage,
Social values and Religious traditions.
It may kindly be noted that donations
to Nachiketa Tapovan are exempted
from Income Tax U/S 80 G of IT Act,
1961 of Govt. of India. Donations in
the form of Cheques/Demand Drafts
may please be drawn in favour of
Nachiketa Tapovan. We acknowledge
the generous contributions made by
donors.
