CHANGES BROUGHT IN REGARDING RESPONSIBILITIES OF ‘AKHAND JYOTI MAGAZINE’

13 Feb

Just before Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya left for solitude living in a far off region he handed over the entire responsibility of ‘Akhand Jyoti’ to his holy consort HH Mata Bhagwati Deviji Sharma. It was she who was managing and editing it so far.

HH Mata Bhagwati Deviji Sharma writes that respected readers may find it amazing to see her name as editor on the ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’. A majority of members of our worldwide family are such who come to Mathura city on and off and are well versed with my working arena. For a fair length of time the task of arranging spiritual practice sessions for our members was handed over to me. Those harboring merely a superficial vision are upset with the heavy nature of my activities and really sympathize with me yet only I know how blissful I become along with attaining self fulfillment, when I execute these tasks. In fact these tasks have become a very part and parcel of my innermost nature. Not only do I not get harassed a wee bit when I have to make arrangements for serving meals to the ever increasing number of visitors, devotees, our mission members etc but instead my joy overflows all the more while serving them. For quite a few years this has been my style of working. Hence respected readers definitely shall be more amazed to see me working as the editor of ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ which is a very different task compared to cooking meals for so many people on a daily basis.

All our mission members are well aware of the circumstances and tasks pertaining to our small family consisting of Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya, my mother in law, our 2 children and me. For sometime Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya had asked me to take up duties pertaining to ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ but due to my busy schedule, miniscule capability and lack of experience I was very hesitant and by drawing his attention to my weaknesses I kept informing him that it is not possible for me to shoulder such a big important task. Hesitancy, fear and diffidence regarding taking up such a mammoth task lurked in my mind and I would humbly discuss this mental state with him. Of course! He too was aware of the situation at hand yet that final decision made by him had to be accepted by me as his sacred command. I hence decided to shoulder this duty of managing the ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ based tasks. Thus a very friendly argument taking place between me and him for many months ended on a positive note. As a result very similar to the wonder harbored by readers of ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ on seeing my name as its editor, I too am feeling diffident.

Right from the time I entered Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s home (post our marriage) I felt he was a divine personality and hence I worshiped him as Almighty God. In every wish and command of his I have experienced my good fortune and well being in humbly trying to fulfill it. Time and again he would put me into the fire of various difficult tests. In the last Narmedha Yajna conducted by him, he declared all wealth owned by us as public property. This included our ancestral and personal wealth, my jewelry, our printing press and all else that we possessed. While deciding to donate all that we owned for social well being he did consult with me. When he felt that my mental arena was a bit half baked he explained to me the importance of such a decision with due seriousness and hence in a heartfelt manner I accepted his decision as supremely great. I accepted this declaration of his with that inner joy as was his inner sacred wish. Similarly 6 years previously when he thought of observing Brahmacharya (sexual continence) for the remaining time span of his life and asked my opinion regarding it I again experienced my total well being in this sacred aspiration of his. A few days back he was thinking on the lines of giving away his children for social well being tasks so that myself and him could travel the length breadth of India for religious propagation tasks. At that time too I very joyously accepted his thinking. Hence when today he was advising me to continue publication of the ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ as its editor so that he could focus his attention on another very important endeavor why would I object even a wee bit? Since my incapability could pose an obstacle I was quite hesitant initially yet knowing well that since his blessings and commands are there in front of me there was no need for me to refuse such an onerous responsibility. In this small life of mine I have witnessed so many incidences certain people on attaining his powerful blessings have been able to execute enormous great tasks. It is on this very basis that my diffidence and hesitating nature calms down and somehow I have imbibed the enterprise to take up this leading duty of publication of the ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ as its editor.

Why did Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya bring about this change in functioning of ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ has a detailed foundation. His life has been full oriented around spiritual austerities called Sadhana. If in true terms his inner personality is analyzed he is first a spiritual aspirant and then anything else. This has been his most beloved task and in it his mind gets immersed blissfully. He had completed 24 Super Gayatri Mahapurashcharans of 2.4 million Mantras each. Hence as Purnahuti (final phase of completion) he decided to carry out some religious propaganda. In it he was to spend 7 years. These 7 years get completed the next year and hence he wants to return to his arena of spiritual austerities called Sadhana. Thus the change in editorship of ‘Akhand Jyoti Magazine’ was very much a part of this plan.

After completing 24 Super Gayatri Mahapurashcharans of 2.4 million Mantras each he had made a 7 year plan of carrying out the Purnahuti (final phase of completion) program. Following are its aspects:

a)      Establishing Gayatri Tapobhumi via which worldwide propaganda of Super Power Gayatri practices can take place.

b)     Lighting the ceaseless burning flame lamp (Akhand Jyoti) wherein since Yajnas shall go on without pause the Power of Yajnas can get nourished.

c)      Establishing the All World Gayatri Parivar. In it within the 24,000 branches to be set up 0.125 million devotees resolving to perform Upasana or spiritual practices each day shall chant Super Mantra Gayatri at least 12,500,000 times daily.

d)     Performing 1000 Kundi-pyre Yajna wherein Gayatri devotees of entire India gathering at one spot can manifest potent congregational energy.

e)      For Era Neo Creation and Transformation commencing an ethical and cultural neo awakening campaign.

f)       By encouraging people to perform 24,000 Kundi-pyre Yajnas all over India executing widespread preaching of Super Science of Gayatri and Yajna and thus warding off future inauspicious times.

g)      By translating Vedas into Hindi language that is easy, full of wisdom and not expensive to buy propagating Vedic Divine Knowledge.

In 7 years Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya was to fulfill these 7 tasks successfully.

The tasks were very humungous. In those days when he successfully completed 24 Super Gayatri Mahapurashcharans of 2.4 million Mantras each and then spoke to me about this 7 point program of his I was astounded. To the extent means available were limited every part of the program was huge and thus on noting this forget all 7, even a small portion of it would not see completion. The reason being that for these tasks untold wealth, large number of volunteers, a lot of precious time and honest hard work were required. In that small house of ours in which we 5 small living beings resided, noting its limited means and periphery succeeding in this 7 point program seemed impossible. Very humbly I placed this doubt of mine to him but he smilingly said: Although both of us have lived together for so many years yet you wrongly infer that our success-failure was based on our mediocre individual capabilities? This resolve shall be fulfilled not by us but by that divine power in whose lap we both have surrendered our all. I became silent. I have seen so many attain success based on his subtle soul inspirations hence why would this resolve of his fail at all? Thinking thus I bowed down my head in self surrender.

Amongst the 7 point program taken up by Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya as Purnahuti (final phase of completion) of 24 Super Gayatri Mahapurashcharans of 2.4 million Mantras 5 got fully completed. Two of these remain and for them one year remains. They too may get completed in this time frame.

a)      Gayatri Tapobhumi was set up. This center of an ideal temple, hermitage to perform true penance and spread religious teachings is one of the most important areas of India’s religious places.

b)     Flame lamps were lit like those in hermitages of great Rishis that never got doused (Akhand Jyoti). It is worshiped daily in the form of a Yajna. In the entire country of India such Akhand Jyotis are barely found in 3-4 places. Such fire has extraordinary importance but this tradition is virtually becoming extinct. But such an Akhand Jyoti has been set up in Gayatri Tapobhumi and apt arrangements have been made so that it always remains alit and never gets doused.

c)      More than 2,400 branches of All World Gayatri Parivar have been established. 0.125 millions devotees have resolved to perform Upasana or spiritual practices each day shall chant Super Mantra Gayatri at least 12,500,000 times daily.

d)     The 1000 Kundi Super Yajna got successfully completed and with total peace. This is said to be this era’s greatest and incomparable Yajna ever performed by anyone.

e)      The Era Neo Creation based plan of neo awakening of ethics and culture has been propagated by branches of All World Gayatri Family. We hope that it shall reach every nook and corner of India and that in order to reinstate great traditions of ancient eras in India this program shall attain noteworthy success.

These 5 programs have seen successful completion. Arrangements have been made so that they continue to function smoothly in future too. As per the 6th resolve 24,000 Kundi-pyre Yajnas were to be performed. 1000 Kundi-pyre Yajna were to be performed in Gayatri Tapobhumi and the remaining 23,000 all over India. Till today more than half this number has been completed. The other half remaining definitely shall get fulfilled in the next year on noting the progress reaped so far. Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya is now immersed in translating Vedas in easy to understand language and selling it at very low cost for the benefit of lay public. The commentary of 3 Vedas has already been completed. Only 1 remains to be completed. Now they have to be published and propagated. He has thought of completing this task by this year end. By this time the time frame of 7 years in order to fulfill his resolve too shall end.

After completing this 7 point program Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya shall again immerse himself in his spiritual austerities. Of course he has not clarified this matter fully but it appears that he has made plans to dwell in some special place in close proximity to special soul personalities far away from Mathura City. In order to manifest special energy for our country he has made a special austerities based plan. Hence within the next year along with successfully completing the remaining part of the 7 point program he is liberating himself from all his present responsibilities and handing them over to capable hands. This change in editorship of Akhand Jyoti Magazine also is part of this plan.

Now what remains is his own and my future program. Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya shall immerse himself in his new spiritual austerities. His plans always have a spiritual foundation. In it rests some divine message. Hence I do not possess that bravery to request him to make changes in them. In the absence of his physical presence as far as my personal life is concerned inner mental and external hardships do sadden me. They may no doubt do so in future also yet I shall never do anything that veers him away from his glorious goal. Till today I have never obstructed the great path taken up by him and I would never want to do this in future too. Whatever he thinks is apt, definitely in it dwells wholesomeness.

He has handed over only one task to me: Never should this terrific fount of spiritual austerities dry up on the basis of which depends stupendous success of the activities of All World Gayatri Parivar. Since this family has become humungous its program too is gigantic. In order to complete it successfully self sacrificing residents of Gayatri Tapobhumi and people of powerful resolve spread out the world over accompanied by devotees are executing their appointed tasks zealously. But behind their bodily and mental process is a requirement of a spiritual inspiration imbued with subtle potent energy. It is on its basis that in the program of Era Neo Creation required steadfast faith and zeal does not dissipate in selfless volunteers even a wee bit. Next year Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya is to take up spiritual practices of an extraordinarily high stature. He has handed over to me the responsibility of seeing to it that the spiritual principle embedded in all tasks of All World Gayatri Family never diminishes and for that I (HH Bhagwati Deviji Sharma) too must take up special spiritual practices.

In a major way he has given me the following important duties:

1)      The Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) lit here was meant for the 24 Super Gayatri Mahapurashcharans. When this task gets completed it should not be doused but ceaselessly remain alit. It must remain lit for at least next 10 years. Just as in 40 days 1 Gayatri Anushthan gets completed successfully similarly if this Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) remains lit without pause for the next 40 years it shall become a Siddha flame lamp (imbued with sacred divine power). When this lamp remained lit for 30 years the entire family remained awake throughout the night to keep it lit ceaselessly. Hence why douse it when to complete total number of 40 years only 10 years remain to render it a Siddha flame lamp (imbued with sacred divine power). Hence by keeping this flame lamp lit for 10 more years ceaselessly it can be rendered a Siddha Jyoti or flame lamp.

2)      In front of this Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) ceaseless Japa or Mantra chanting should be done and in 10 years I (HH Bhagwati Deviji Sharma) must execute 24 Anushthans of 2.4 million Japa.

He had placed before me this 10 year phase program that I had to execute. After completing this program in 10 years and after handing over these duties to other capable devotees I must head in a direction which I cannot divulge details about at this stage since it shall be out of place for me to do so.

I have reverently taken up his commands. Till today in a major way it was my duty to keep alit the Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) placed in the office of the Akhand Jyoti Magazine. My respected mother in law too would help me out. Even so Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya too would spare a fair bit of time to look after it and protect it from getting doused. But henceforth I had to take up sole responsibility of keeping it brilliantly alit.

How was the Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting to be commenced? For it many devotee volunteers would be required. How to fulfill it has to be deeply mulled over? Maybe 3-4 months shall be required to make optimal arrangements for it. After full arrangements are made I shall commence this Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting. Hence for 10 years I shall immerse myself in completing 24 Anushthans of 2.4 million Japa in the sacred shade of this Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp).

3)      I have commenced editing responsibilities of the Akhand Jyoti Magazine publication. I shall make efforts that along with articles sent for publishing in the magazine that sacred inspiration too gets conjoined which positively influences the very inner soul of respected readers.

The aim of this publication is to augment soul development and peace-joy of members of All World Gayatri Family. On the basis of this Sankalpa or mental resolve this 3 pronged program has been initiated.

The 10 year program planned for me has been commenced by me as a divine command of Almighty God. I have always looked upon Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya and his orders in this sacred light yet because of my weaknesses my womanly heart dithers again and again.

I have only one request to make to each and every respected reader, member, soul friends, adopted sacred children etc that whenever my weak legs falter when I walk with such a heavy onerous responsibility on my shoulders please do express at least one word of encouragement, good wishes and sympathy. I yearn for these words of affection from you in the same way as I yearn for the sacred blessings of divinity personified Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya.

 

THE FUTURE ARRANGEMENTS MADE FOR AKHAND JYOTI MAGAZINE:

The holy consort of Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya viz. HH Mata Bhagwati Deviji Sharma writes that in the previous volume of Akhand Jyoti Magazine discussions were made regarding Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s future program and arrangements for optimal management of Gayatri Tapobhumi and Akhand Jyoti Magazine’s publication. Whatever Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya thinks or plans drips with some subtle divine inspiration. Hence I never argue with commands he gives me to execute. Suddenly early in the morning he proclaimed regarding the last 1000 pyre Gayatri Super Yajna. Previous to this sudden declaration he did not ask anyone, did not make any plans for it, did not etch out a budget for it and did not ponder over the fact as to how such a gigantic program can be successfully executed. As soon as he declared this I placed before him my doubt of completing this program simply due to lack of various means required to execute it successfully. On hearing my doubt he smiled and said: The one who wishes to execute this task (ALMIGHTY GOD) and the one who shall actually enact this task shall make all due arrangements. All of us are mere instruments/mediums and hence instead of getting worried let us carry out our duties like cogs in the wheel without desiring any fruits from our actions. I had no other option but to keep quiet. Doubts yet lurked in my mind along with fear, worry and tension. Yet with these very eyes of mine I saw this super gigantic task getting fulfilled with total success I repented for vainly harboring doubts, worry etc that rendered my mind anguished. That divine power working behind Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s wishes and plans never ever misguides him.

The program he has designed at present he shall be leaving Mathura City to execute spiritual austerities and other research tasks. He has not told anyone as to after what time frame he shall return from this lone journey of his. This time span has not been decided as yet. By itself many responsibilities rest on his shoulders yet 2 programs of his are directly visible viz. Gayatri Tapobhumi and Akhand Jyoti Magazine office work. He has made arrangements for both these important tasks.

Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya wishes that his earnings (spiritual) of 30 years symbolized as the Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) must be kept alit for the following 10 years and that the Anushthan of 40 years must be executed. Just as at the time of reinstating an Akhand Agni (ceaseless fire) the food of that fire must be done daily in the form of a Yajna so too in front of this Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) at least 60 rounds of rosary (Japa) must be executed as its food. In the Gayatri Tapobhumi an Akhand Agni (ceaseless fire) is lit. Over here 1000 Ahuti based Havan or fire ritual is carried out. In the Akhand Jyoti Magazine office an Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) is lit and in front of it both of us do at least 60 rounds of rosary (Japa). In this manner in 1 year we carry out at least 2.4 million Purashcharan even today. Till 6 years previously, Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya alone would complete 1 Mahapurashcharan in 1 year. When these Purashcharans were complete successfully and he got immersed in executing his 7 point spiritual program since then both of us together have been completing 1 Purashcharan in 1 year. From this whatever amount of soul power and austerity based divine energy is amassed is shared with members of our world family as Punya Prasad. Thus these members attain material and spiritual advancement and also their difficulties get warded off.

Hence the question arose that if Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya left us all for dwelling in solitude how was this Purashcharan etc to be completed? Hence to solve this problem he designed a program of doing Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting in front of this Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp). Via his body, so much power of penance would manifest on daily doing 60 rounds of rosary (Japa). Hence this measure of power could only be generated, after he left for his journey, by keeping doing this Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting. This Japa was to be done by unmarried young virgin girls. At the Purnahuti (closing ceremony) of Gayatri Anushthans scriptural injunctions are very clear that unmarried young virgin girls must be fed a sumptuous meal. In this mode of God devotion unmarried young virgin girls are given supreme importance and honor. In Hindu Religion too this sort of sacred sentiment is harbored towards such unmarried young virgin girls and that hence they are worshiped with devotion. Akin to cows unmarried young virgin girls too are offered worship. This is because they ooze with righteous thinking. If in the absence of great men of austerities and steadfast Brahmins anyone is given a seat of honor for offering worship it is unmarried young virgin girls. Since today true steadfast Brahmins are very difficult to find it was apt that in the Akhand Jyoti Magazine office in front of the Akhand Jyoti (ceaseless flame lamp) unmarried young virgin girls execute the sacred program of doing Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting.

For the next 10 years Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya had commanded me to continue with this Anushthan. In this manner if Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting continued thus 24 Purashcharans of 2.4 million Japa could be completed. As of now the plan is this much only. When 12 unmarried young virgin girls execute each day do Japa for 2 hours each (total 24 hours) then the task of Akhand Japa or ceaseless Mantra chanting can succeed. As per this arrangement in 10 years 24 Purashcharans can easily be completed. This much has to be done but my wish is that in order to help the increasing number of members of our All World Gayatri Family much more and that religious volunteers get more sacred inspiration for this 24 Purashcharans is not enough. Hence its number should increase to 108 Purashcharans. Since this burden will become heavier and gigantic, as of now in order to complete 24 Purashcharans a program has been set up for 12 unmarried young virgin girls to execute each day Japa for 2 hours each (total 24 hours).

Regarding taking up editing of Akhand Jyoti Magazine I am well aware of my miniscule capability and no doubt am worried about it. Yet this task handed over to me shall be reverently shouldered by me as Almighty Lord’s divine command. An All World Gayatri Magazine is being published regularly for social service regarding Era Neo Creation, a Religious Revolution, for Life’s Yajna and organization of this Gayatri Family. This task is very zestfully being shouldered by selfless children of our family. The aim of Akhand Jyoti Magazine is spiritual in nature and highlights various spiritual practices or Sadhana. This responsibility rests on my shoulders and I have accepted it by imbuing total faith in Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s holy blessings and respected readers’ goodwill.

By itself today also, Akhand Jyoti is spiritual. Spirituality can many a times become dry. Not everyone is inclined to pursue it. As per future plans it shall become all the more spiritual. Under such situations those whose interest in it is miniscule or those who buy and read literature for entertainment it shall become all the more dry. Under such situations the number of subscribers to our magazine shall dwindle that much more. It shall be very good and conducive that in future subscribers to our magazine shall be only those who are true followers of spirituality. Thus people immersed in sense titillation must give up its membership. In fact because of them management over here does go awry. Every year piles of extra magazines get published and they become useless. Sometimes certain editions/volumes published are less in number than ones in demand and thus our subscribers complain to us.

Akhand Jyoti Magazine’s great mission has done immense work in the last 20 years. It can be called successful. There is nothing surprising that Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s tasks have succeeded. Now the epilogue of this mission due to my meager capability and lack of experience can go haywire. It may fail to succeed. In this hour of difficulty, I pray for affection goodwill and cooperation of our worldwide family. Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya has always looked upon our mission members as his comrades, very souls and affectionate kin. Barring a few Gurus, others he looks upon as his revered father. Naturally I too shall harbor motherly affection for all our members. In this hour of change offering unlimited motherly affection to all our members I hope to attain love and affection from them too. The basis of my shouldering this heavy responsibility shall be Goddess Mother Gayatri’s blessings, Revered Gurudeva Yuga Rishi Shriram Sharma Acharya’s grace and goodwill of my very own beloved people. I have full faith that this foundation shall never weaken.
