Swatantra Dina Abhinandam!


 

 

SARVESHAM BHAVATAH  BHARATEEYA  SAPTA SHASHTEEYA SWATANTRA DINA  ABHINANDANAM !!

Na cho'rahaaryam na cha Rajahaaryam Na Bratrubhajaym na cha Bharakaari

Vyaye krute vardata eva , nityam VIDYA dhanam  sarva dhana  pradhaanam.

न चोरहार्यं  न च राजहार्यं न भ्रातृभाज्यं न च भारकारि |
व्यये कृते वर्धत एव नित्यं विद्याधनं सर्व धनप्रधानं ||

It can't be stolen by thieves nor by kings; needn't be shared with siblings nor is it a burden unbearable;
 When shared it only grows daily:  The wealth called VIDYA is foremost among all wealths/treasures.

Such is the GREATNESS of the treasure  named  SARASWATI MATA!  Bolo Saraswati Mata Ki Jai! 
Bolo  Bharat Mata Ki  Jai!!

Build Hari Om Trail with Yuva Kendra this weekend Aug 9-10, 2014 8:00am -2:00 pm


Hari Om,
We hope everyone is well. We are requesting you and your friends to come down to the Chinmaya Saraswati Ashram, 393 Derby Ave, Orange, Ct 06477 this Saturday and Sunday (Aug 9-10) from 8:00am to 2:00pm, to come help build a nature trail that will be called the "Hari OM Trail". This idea is wonderful for all those people that want to experience the outdoors whenever at Balvihar. It is also a way for us to work on our mind discipline, since everything that Balvihar teaches goes towards our spiritual upliftment. The Yuvakendra has decided to make it a project of our own, but help from all of YOU is necessary. We request that you bring your own gardening tools due so the work can be done quicker and more efficiently. We hope to turn this idea become a reality. We hope everyone can make it and we hope to see you there!!
From,
Sanju Reddy

Chinmaya Aradhana Day 2014


YouTube video link
Published on Aug 2, 2014
The Master who has shown us the way towards the Truth - A tribute to Pujya Gurudev, Swami Chinmayananda's life and teachings.

Lyrics of the Song - 'The way I long to go' :

Will any walk this way with me
The way I long to go
The narrow road of no return
A way few wish to know?

Who longs to go the way I go
Alone and all forlorn
To walk the way the lonely go
Through desert night and thorn?

From long ago, in days of old
By fiery wheel and hill
There went a few who’ll show the way
To follow, if you will

But he who goes must thirsting go
Belonging, none has he
To find the End that’s endless
All forsaken he must be.

Will any walk this way with me
The way I long to go
The narrow road of no return
A way few wish to know?
