Acharya Pandit Shri Ram Sharma's Centenary celebrations;

Summary and highlights of Resp. Dr. Saheb's lecture:

Dr. Saheb starts the lecture with Mahakal Vandana -

I know why all of you are quite and why my face bears this serene and
deserted look. You all know of the events of the days past. I know how
difficult the situation is, there was cold, there was inconvenience.
People had made plans, people had come with aspirations to see
Shantikunj, DSVV, Exhibition. But they had to be cut short, people had
to be turned away.

But this mission is founded on hope not despair.

It is the mission of that GuruSatta who's proclamation is - 21st Century
Bright Future, it is that GuruSatta's Centenary and we won't allow it to
end in such despair and disappointment.

We planned the celebrations, we invited people from all over, but maybe
Gurudev who can see the future, knew that if more crowds poured in, we
might not be able to handle it well. The event if it would have happened
the next day or day it is possible that the catastrophe might be 1000
times, 10000 times more harmful.

20 people, 20 souls took the whole calamity on themselves. This could
have been worse, much worse. Had not Gurudev intervened.

Even if the program had to be concluded earlier that planned, do not
think that the poornahuti has been interrupted or not done. There have
been a series of Poornahuti Yagyas right from January. There is no
wanting of "Aadhyatmik Purusharth".

Though we have done 40 such programs, but we will be asked what happened
in the 41st program? The fight between Asurta and Devatva, Evil and
Divine is eternal. And Asurta attacks there where the Divinity or Devata
is on the ascent, rise. This is what might have happened, and we were
caught unawares.

Me and GG returned from Laljiwala camp on the 9th night and we have not
had a moment of sleep since the return from camp. We are trying to meet
most of the people who are here before they leave for their homes.

About the events of that day: There is one thing worth noticing, after
the events of the day, after the Shantipath, there was an unique self -
confidence, unique faith that we will endure in everyone. Nowhere there
was a feeling of fear. This Sankalp bal, this power of will is a great
gift, great blessing from Gurudev.

Magisterial inquiries, investigations are going on. The reports will be
out in 10 - 15 days. There has been indications that this incidence was
preplanned and there were arrangements for live recording of this
incidence. We are investigating on this angle as well. If this is not
covered in the Magisterial inquiries, we will make sure that we launch a
plea to investigate who was responsible for this.


Have faith that a very responsible system is active. Mistakes have been
made. Gurudev has caught them early on and has minimized the damage with
minimum possible punishment.

This time is to keep the faith, keep mental stability and confidence.

I have personally met the relatives and seen the mortal remains of the
deceased. We all are praying to GuruSatta for their Sadgati.

From now onwards we will concentrate on our constructive programs and
make sure that we give them high focus and huge impetus. Most important
on them is Vruksha Ganaga Abhiyaan - Tree plantaion dirve, Vyasan Mukti
- De Addiction, Micro Water Harvesting program, Adarsh Gaon and Smriti
Upvan and Apada Prabandahn Vahini.

The most important thing, quality is - AtmaBal. Because we all together
comprise together Gurudev's 3 bodies - Sthool, Sookshma, Karan. These
mission's roots are deep rooted, they are very deep. It is unshakable.
Gurudev has started this mission and a small mistake or irresponsibility
on behalf Dr Pranav Pandya and group cannot affect it.

Do not think that this whole Yagya was left incomplete and was stopped
in between, it is continuous.

He suggested that in terms of Sadhana we can have an anushthan for 9
days (11 mala everyday). Remember, believe in us, have faith in us. We
have experienced each and every breath of Gurudev and have spent
important moments with him. If there is any draw back it can be within
any of us. Do not blame the varishtha karyakartas. Think of how we can
all be together and strengthen ourselves. These are tough times and we
have faced most of it.

Yes, we cannot forget November 8th, I still remember it vividly when I
answered so many questions from the media, around 8 channels interviewed
me. They were initially agitated when they came in but calmed down after
the interview.

Star News reported the worst things that occurred on Nov 9 and in the
evening they mentioned we will tell you what Gayatri Pariwar is. They
gave a detailed description of Gurudev, Gayatri Pariwar, Shantikinj, etc
in the evening news. Would it have been possible otherwise? No one knew
what Gayatri Pariwar is, nor were interested. This is blessing in
disguise, but at the cost of 20 lives who sacrificed themselves. This is
not a small thing and not a good trade off. This recognition of Gayatri
Pariwar has come at a very great cost.

SamvedanSheelta, Empathy is the greatest asset of our mission. If it was
not like that we would not have been able to restore order immediately
after the incident.

We had to continue the Yagya even after the incidence to facilitate
crowd management. To make sure that the crowd which is there to do Yagya
does not divert in any other way and cause more crowd management issues.

The event has occurred to teach us a lesson, to teach us a management
lesson. We have to shoulder even greater responsibilities in 2015, 2020
and 2026. The mission is going to grow not 25 or 50 times but 1000 times
its current state in the coming 10 - 15 years.

This event is a boon in disguise. Keep your mind light and make sure
that it does not go in despair. We have to maintain calm, be calm
yourself and also make others calm. Make sure that we do not encourage
rumors, because rumors do not have hands or legs, they have wings. Its
up to us to make sure that false rumors and false information does not
spread.

We will be having decentralized programs all over India and the world.
We will try to reach out to those people whom we would not have reached
in the big programs.

We begin a new innings now, a new start and with new enthusiasm and
renewed vigor we start our work.

Gurudev used to say that i am a Sher - Lion and we are Lion Cubs. If we
are true children of Gurudev, we will make sure that we conduct
ourselves with dignity and grace and be ever aware that no blemish
should come on our mission or Gayatri Pariwar.


These are the rough hightlights of the lecture, we will be publishing a
better translation soon.
