Sri Dagadushet Halwayi Ganapati at Pune

In the month of July 2007, Jagadguru arrived at Pune where He participated in a number of programmes. The Jagadguru worshipped Dagadu Seth Halwai Ganapati. The trustees of the temple received the H.H. in a grand manner and presented a humble offering of One lakh Rs. H.H. graced the Veda Shastrottejaka Sabha and released a book Taittiriya Aranyaka published by the Sabha, laid the foundation stones for a Research Centre and Dental College at the Bharathi Vidyapeeth University. The Jagadguru visited the Ganesh temple run by Keshav Mitra Mandal where the members of the Mandal received Rs. 10,000/- from the Jagadguru on behalf of the Peetham towards Go Samrakshana. The Jagadguru also graced a number of Dharmic institutions such as Vaidika Samshodana Mandal, Sripada Seva Mandal, Sahasrabuddhi Mandir and Gita Dharma Mandal. The Jagadguru performed Puja at the shrines of Sri Mahaganpati, Sri Sharada Parameshwari and Sri Adi Shankaracharya at the Sringeri Shankar Math in Pune.

 
  • The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
  • If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
