A Message from Swamiji

The good fortune that occurs to one in the present life is the consequential effect of the good deeds done by him in the earlier births. During our short sojourn on this earth as we strive hard for the accumulation of the transient wealth, we tend to forget that life is short, call of the soul should not be ignored and that the only real wealth we carry forward to subsequent births is the good effect of the holy deeds performed by us in this birth.

The root cause for the sufferings in the present life are the evil deeds performed in the past births and the non- performance of good deeds despite getting chances. Just as the Sun and the Moon rise after every setting and the seasons emerge and re-emerge, human birth also repeats endlessly. There is no point in brooding over one's sufferings and ill-luck which after all are the consequences of one's past actions. Our past actions alone are responsible for all the happiness and sorrows, that we currently experience.

In order to find a permanent remedy for the present ills and to provide for good fortune, peace and prosperity to self and progeny in future births, one is advised to participate in the most effective and potent Maha Soma Yaga performed as ordained in the four Vedas with absolute concentration and pray for universal peace, harmony, progress and prosperity. Remember one gets the opportunity to physically participate in such grand Yaga only as a result of the good deeds performed by him in seven earlier births
