Only those get destination who do not only tell


O brethren! The significance of life is not only in taking birth and spending it. Its significance is precisely in making the life a living one by dedicating it on the righteous feet. Just as there is an eminent (superior) place of the moon among the stars, of the Sun in planets, of the Sumeru among mountains, of the Ganga among rivers and that of the mango among fruits, similarly there is significance/ importance of the forehead among all the eight organs of the body. The land of southern India has imparted /blessed continuity of the light of spirituality by giving birth of many illuminating divine souls. Child Vidyadhar bom in Sadlaga village of Belgaon district became Muni Vidhya Sagar from Vidyadhar by of¬fering libation of his life on the conductful feet of Gum Janansagar Ji for attaining the eternal position of liberated soul {Siddha), abandoning . transitory materials, amenities in his very youth. The Yogi Guru chis¬elled Vidhaydhara, a Brihamchari beyond sensual desires and an unhewn diamond and tested Muni Vidyasagar on the touch stone, also gave it heat and realising him hundred percent pure gold declared him not only radiant constellation of the spiritual courtyard but as the planet sun. He at present is present before us as the paragon of saints Acharya Shri Vidyasagar Ji.

Brothers! Who do not only tell but are engaged constantly in doing, those alone get the destination in the times to come. Acharya Jananasagar ji Maharaj ensconced this most able disciple on the throne, the symbol of the position of Acharya according to the order/ tradition of earlier Acharyas with appropriate religious rituals on 22nd Novem¬ber, 1972 at Nazeerabad (Rajasthan), thereby extended the uninter-rupted stream of Lord Mahaveer’s tradition. Precisely the extra-ordinary courage, patience and sense of detachment/ indifference to any post or position, is the first stair of pleasure peace and of meditation. Acharyashri has given a message to the world, not by words but by conduct. Acharya Vidyasagar Ji being free from dense darkness of position, authority,glory, power, is a non-violent human lion moving/ behaving like lion’s inclination in the spiritual field, is an indestructible radiance of the faith of human beings, celestial beings and of Kinmiras, etc. deities. Not alone Jain society but the entire society, may be Hindu or Muslim. Christian. Sikh or Parsi get pleasure seeing venerable Gurudeva in their own respective form/ point of view. Acharya Shri presented new di¬mensions by developing Sanskrit and Hindi literature through his literary accomplishment. He. by creating divine conscious creations, has crowned the spiritual land of Bharat with glory and has taken care of human society deviating from humanity by sowing seeds of right sacraments. He has lighted the lamp of faith in the inner heart by applying collyrium of faith in the eyes becoming blind in the race of materialism, by establishing new fords Teerthas and by making them aware of science of discrimination, of beneticial-non-beneficial, and of our-own and another. Acharya Shri has given the nectar pitcher in the form of 'Bhagyodaya Tcertha ' to the diseased society by body and mind assimilating the message of Bhagwan Mahaveer, Live& Let Live" for making the society immortal.

O brothers! The paragon of Saints Acharya Shri Vidyasagarji Maharaj who has declared the slogan,” Cattle-protection, is country- protection" and who initiated for the construction ol ‘cattle-herds' in¬stead of godowns (palatial buildings) has said, " Precisely the Jceva protection, i.e. gi\ ing protection to living beings is the excellent charity, it is gift of life and is to obey the order of the God, this very is the worship, this very is the development of human virtues and is the installation of non-violence, precisely the non-violence is, in fact, the religion, is the ensign of Jina-discipline. this very is the stair of self- progress. The power of authority is not gained by torturing living beings.

If you want to gain power of authority then follow the non-violence & truth. The one who being positioned in authority establishes religious state equitably with truth & morality that only is entitled to be positioned in authority. Well, Aeharayshri is doing his own well-being by observing all of his 36 basic virtues, he by educating, consecrating and establishing“Chatiirvidh sangh”,(i.e. group of Muni. Aryika, Male & Female devotees) has contributed firmness to the Jina-discipline. to the nation's prosperity and to the society. Many adepts have concluded Sallekhnci Samadhi, (i.e. holy death ) in the proximity of venerable Guru's feet thereby celebrated their vow-completing ceremony, have accepted death as a great festival abandoning the fear of death. The proximity of the Guru makes the life victorious ,i.e. successful and the death as a festival. Precisely, the Guru is the very source/ foundation of mediation, the worship of the Guru is the core/ gist of life, Guru’s words are excellence incantation and the shore of the world/ birth exists only on the feet of the Guru.

POSITIVE THINKING


One man asked Nepolian. “ what is the mystery of your success? Are there any other supernatural powers with you." then Nepolian replied with natural state of mind." If we continuously persevere with complete honesty and dedication by resolving for the attainment of our goal, then the success is sure.”

When the sense-frenzied rutting elephant is caused to enter the depraved - forest of attachment - aversion, lust by his passionfal mahout, then the scene of devastation is created every where. This very is the cause of world and is the home of grief, but when the man of virtuous conduct takes up the journey of introspection by causing it to march on the simple road of all the four expositions of Jain religion and of twelve scriptures by an iron goad of knowledge and becoming supreme meditation - natured warrior, manifests his valour then he becomes master of infinite, ineffable,supernatural peace beyond the reach of senses sitting in the peaceful fine lake.
