All machines come with manuals, we read the manuals before we operate them. However, this complex machine called ‘human’ is used without any guidance. The scriptures are the ‘Manuals for Humans’. The sooner we ‘Understand’ them, the better the type of life we will lead and better directed our pursuits will be. We are sitting on a store house of rich scriptures. The wisdoms that abides in them is immense. However, most of the time this precious knowledge is kept covered in an orange cloth, in a sacred corner and removed occasionally for chants and obeisance. The effort here is to make these a daily read for us. We should be able to pick up any scripture, Just like one effortlessly picks up a novel, magazine, newspaper, etc. any time, anywhere, read, interpret and experience it. As one of the saints once said, How long are you going to read other people’s experience? When will you experience it yourself? There can be multiple interpretations. Delve deeper into your very being and after that constant musing, what is it that you feel this reveals? Details on the Books; Bhaj Govindam This is a hard hitting composition to awaken us by the great Guru Shankaracharya. My learnings from Bhaj Govindam is a written expression, kindly refer to the notes below the audio. Shrimad Bhagwat Mahapuran This is a Mahapuran, written by Vedvyasaji and narrated by his son Sukhdevji to Raja Pariksit. Note: Pls refer to the notes to see which Skanda and chapter the session talks about. Currently we are in the 9th Skandh or Book. Geeta This is widely known, and is a part of Mahabharat. It is a divine dialogue between Shri Krishna and Arjun. The sessions are verse 24 onwards. Verse from 1 to 23 were not recorded, as at that time we had face to face sessions. Sundarkand This is a part of the Ramayan. Here, the great devotee Hanumanji, shows us essence of devotion. We are referring to the Tulsi Ramayan - RamcharitraManas Vibhisan Gita (Complete) This was done while understanding Shri Ram in Bhagwat, however the material was taken from Ramayan - Vibhishan Gita (Part of Tulsi Ramayan - Lanka Kand - Completed) May God's Grace Flow
