When there is a decline in the world
of righteousness, almighty will send a man to uplift the dharma and eradicate
injustice.Instances are numerous in this regard.
The birth of Shri. Shankara Bhagavatpada in Kerala, with a spiritual and
scholarly brain, embraced sanyas to become a great sage, learning the secrets
of spiritual An ardent Texts and Vedanta, accepting Shri. Gowdapada Bhagavatpada
as his guru, and with his scholarly acumen.
Defeating the scholars, climbing the
seat of scholarship in Banaras, touring the country by foot,
Spreading the message of ‘advaita’ throughout the country, an
ardent devotee of Shri. Sharadamba, and
establishing spiritual mutts in the four corners of the country, placing his
young and efficient
Disciples to head the same, writing bhashyas for Upanishads,
and innumerable stotras for the common Man, stressing the need to shun material
things, and embrace the lotus feet of the Lord, through
Absolute surrender to attain
salvation from the ocean of birth and death.
At the young age of thirty-two, he
went to kedar, and after fulfilling the life’s mission, attained jeevanmukti
In the same parampara, a star was
born to spread the message of ‘THE SONG
CELESTIAL’. It is a pity that the country has not spared its thought to
commemorate the centenary of this noble son which falls this year. He is Shree Swami Chinmayananda who was born
in the year 1916 in Kerala, like Shri.Bhagavatpada, With fire, faith and
ferocity in the genes. He, being a ferocious product with zeal to absorb
everything, took to sanyas, and studied spiritual texts and Vedanta under Shri.

HEARD HIS VIBRANT VOICE
A ‘VISIONARY WITH A VIBRANT VOICE
LIKE LION’, he started the ‘GEETHA GYANA YAGYA MOVEMENT’
To spread the message of the ‘THE
SONG CELESTIAL’ which went on nearly for three decades. In the morning, he used
to conduct classes on Upanishads and in the evening gave, LUCID, LEARNED AND
LIGHTNING LECTURES ON THE ‘SONG CELESTIAL.’
‘PEOPLE USED TO THRONG IN HUNDREDS,
HEARD HIS VIBRANT VOICE, WITH RAPT ATTENTION, CHANTING TWO SLOKAS AND EXPLAIN
THE MEANING. NEXT DAY REPEAT AND CONTINUE. HE USED TO ALLOW
A GAP OF 15 MINUTES FOR PEOPLE TO
FRESH THEMSELVES.
E.g., A person goes to Delhi to
receive an award and returns after two days.
Likewise, ‘A MAN MUST STAY IN THIS WORLD AND RETURN, AFTER THE PURPOSE IS OVER’. ‘TE TVAM SVARGA LOKAM VISHALAM, KSHEENE PUNYE
MARTHYA LOKAM VISHANTHI’.
II.A mother has left her young child
with her elder one, with some toys. After playing for a while, the
Child gets disgusted and cries for
its mother, who after coming takes the child in her bosom. Likewise,
‘MAN MUST SHUN MATERIAL THINGS AND
GO FOR THE DIVINE’.
HIS CONTRIBUTION TO THE NATION IS
LIKE AN OCEAN. THE GOVERNMENT CAN COMMEMORATE
HIS CENTENARY BY INSTITUTING A CHAIR
IN ANY UNIVERSITY IN THE NAME OF THIS PROUD SON OF THE NATION AND ALSO BRING
OUT A STAMP IN RECOGNITION OF HIS SERVICES. SWEET SON OF THE LAND WHAT A GLORY
