Systematically training oneself is discipline ~ 2 Oct 2012

Discipline dictates our lives. An infant is taught discipline by being fed as per a schedule. We humans have the capacity to get trained or to train ourselves voluntarily. Sadgurudeva Sri Swamiji demonstrates to us daily how well discipline can help us. He is a personification of discipline. Come rain or sunshine, he does not miss his austerities or his physical exercises. Laziness and laxity are words that do not exist in his dictionary. Just observe his super human achievements in just a few decades! We do not see him waste even one single moment of his day. We do not hear him speak one extra unnecessary word. We do not see him engaging in any unnecessary task. Yet he never appears to be in a rush. He takes the time to attend to each activity giving it his complete attention. He laughs and he makes us laugh. He is relaxed and he relaxes us. He sings and he makes us sing. He dances and he makes us dance in abandon. His mind, we know is all pervasive and all-knowing of all that happens all over the universe at all times. Yet it is fully focused on the job at hand as if he is experiencing it for the very first time in his life. He is systematic and meticulous to the core. Under your guidance and inspiration, may we all achieve your level of discipline, Sadgurudeva Datta! Sri Guru Datta

డెబ్భైయేళ్ళ వయస్సు వచ్చినా, నాకు చిన్నప్పుడు మా అమ్మ ఈ మంచి అలవాట్లు నేర్పలేదు. అందుకే నాకిలా పద్ధతిగా చెయ్యడం రాదు, అనే పెద్దలున్నారు ఈ ప్రపంచంలొ. క్రమశిక్షణ అనేది ఎవరో నేర్పవలసిన అవసరం లేదు. ఎవరికి వారు తప్పనిసరిగా అలవరచుకోవచ్చు, అలవరచుకోవాలి, అన్న విషయం మనం సద్గురుదేవుల ఉదాహరణతో మనమంతా నేర్చుకోవాలి. క్రొత్త విషయాలు, మంచి విషయాలు పద్ధతిగా, క్రమశిక్షణతో నేర్చుకోవడానికి వయస్సుతో నిమిత్తం లేదు. ఈ వయస్సులో స్వామీజీ, తమ లక్ష బాధ్యతలూ నెరవేరుస్తూ, క్రొత్త క్రొత్త భాషలు కూడా నేర్చుకుంటున్నారు! జయ గురు దత్త

Our children used to try to avoid doing some given tasks with the excuse, “I am not good at it.” My response would at once be, “Then become good at it!” To this day they quote those words and laugh. Our most beloved Appaji is telling us sweetly that it is entirely up to us to make the effort to be disciplined. He is assuring us that success is ensured if we are systematic and regular in what we do, by standing before us as a perfect model. Jaya Guru Datta

Jai guru Datta

Jaya Guru Datta
Thank You so much, dear Sri Swamiji, for giving us the opportunity to do seva. i have spent the happiest moments of my life being involved in seva. In addition i learn innumerable lessons. While doing seva the learning intensity is very high. Disipline guides us to our inner enemies. It helps to find and to overcome them.

Yes, Puttuji today being Gandhi jayanthy, Appaji has given a very apt MMS. According to my view, Appaji’s first lesson is when you enter the Ashrama to keep discipline. If you practice this regularly we will get more concentration and can controll our mind which is required for our growth in spiritual path. Here even we can notice the importance of our volunteers, who as per the instruction of Appaji will make us to keep discipline in the Ashrama complex. This will help us in so many ways as already stated. More over Puttuji you have already stated here the services rendered by them especially during function and no more comment is required for this. Through Appaji’s guidance they have given proper training and lot of patience also to handle different type of devotees visiting the Ashrama. While we attend any function like Pooja or Homa or Bhajan etc  they will be doing their service in and around of the ashram in so many ways which is highly appreciable for which they will get Definately  the blessing from Appaji. There fore volunteers are also part and part of our Ashrama.    JGD.

In the Life History of Puja Sri Swamiji we have so many examples, how He was disciplined already as a very young boy. And becoming older He drove the discipline to an extent, that we can only be astonished and stay with open mouth. We can’t understand the dimension of this study and enormous will . Jaya Guru Datta with all admiration and the sankalpa to learn from you.

జయ గురుదత్త, శ్రీ గురుదత్త, ఓం నమో హనుమతే నమః
ఓం శ్రీ సచ్చిదానందేశ భక్తాయ నమః
శ్రీ సద్గురు దత్తదేవుని చరణార విందములకు శతకోటి ప్రణామములు.
ఓం శ్రీ సద్గురుభ్యో నమః

We have found that by establishing a daily routine, this kind of discipline brings greater freedom and peace to our lives. When we deviate from that routine, generally something doesn’t run as smoothly in the day. When we don’t have to think about what to do with the choices, our mind rests more easily into Sadguru. It is a simple and effective method that works for us. Thank you Appaji. JGD

Jai Guru Datta. Sri Gurubyo Namaha. Yes our volunteers doing well in every aspect because of SadGuru Krupa. That potentiality is provided by our swamiji. Millions of Pranams to the Lotus feet of Pujya Sri Swamiji.

Jaya Guru Datta,

wow… what a beautiful MMS video message. We will make systematic training a motto of our life. I pray to pujya gurudeva to bless always to do selfless service to the lotus feet of Sri Swamiji. Thank you Puttuji for this wonderful MMS video.

Sri Guru Datta

Jai Guru Datta Dear Puttuji !!

All the volunteers are very fortunate. Appaji is so merciful, HE walks back and gives his glance to all the volunteers again. Sadgurudeva is already watching out for all of us. Who else is more concerned about us? Our concern is always in Sadgurudeva’s mind. In selfless and devoted seva to Sadguru the sevaks are marching with discipline on the path to liberation. Puttuji thank you for tying the message with real world examples to enhance our clarity of understanding. Appaji’s grace I will surely meet any opportunity in Gurudeva’s Mission and Service.

Sri Guru Datta !!

Jaya Guru Datta,

many years back I was at the Ashrama when Swamiji and the sevakas where doing the same presentation. I have to say I got a little amused about the “military spirit”. Today Swamiji is pointing out the matter of discipline.
Thank you for this wonderful video-clip: the volunteers standing in a sharp line like soldiers, remind me of Ramayana! Appaji passing like the strong Hanumanta and examining the state of condition. I imagine how Hanuman was building the brige over to Lanka. I am sure that everything had to be a perfect match and going on in a very clear order.
I bow down to Lord Hanuman – Om namo Hanumate namaha

JGD Appaji – Being a volunteer me and my family learnt to stand against any difficulties and maintain discipline life. We do not worry about anything as we have our Sadguru Deva on our back who protects us from all situations – SGD

Jai Guru Datta! The systematic training dearest to me is to stop the mind to influence me and to give freeway to the heart. This is a very arduous task and it is the only pathway to happiness.

Discipline is one of the essential component in life. For healthy body one needs to follow discipline in diet habits and sleeping pattern. Similarly for success at work one needs discipline at  working place. Schooling and higher education helps us to develop this discipline within us. Exemplary message to be executed in daily life. I would like to thank God for blessing me with such a wonderful parents who had educated me with good habits, prohibited me from bad and for inculcating discipline in every part of my daily activity.
