  1. Pranams Gurudeva!
    You know what our prayers are like.. you’ve been listening.
    You know we’re no better than a child that always wants chocolates & ice creams.. even when parents can offer enough wisdom & healthy food. Out of sheer compassion you caution us about the foolishness in seeking the transient wealth & health, before going after intransient knowledge
    We understand. We will ask for knowledge, and then good health, because we need health to practice the knowledge. Lastly wealth.. because if we have done a thorough job of knowledge & are fit as a fiddle in health, wealth can never be far behind.
    When Krishna gave Arjuna & Duryodhana the freedom to choose between himself & his army, Arjuna chose Krishna even though he was clear that Krishna will not fight. Duryodhana chose Krishna’s army. When Arjuna chose Krishna, he chose knowledge. Health & wealth followed.
    Please bless us with knowledge, health and then wealth. Jaya Guru Datta. Your Puttuji

    Humble Guruvara prostrations at the lotus feet of Our Dattavatara Sadgurudeva !!

    Jai Guru Datta Appaji – Yet another MMS masterpiece!

    We are so ignorant in knowing how to properly conduct ourselves in front of Pujya Sadhguru, who is Lord Dattatreya Himself gracing us in our sojourn. A million thanks for guiding us in how to approach a Guru and what to seek.
    Dearest Gurudeva – We just want to be at your Lotus Feet and be in your service… secure in knowledge that you will provide us all the necessary means to serve your Glorious Mission.

    Forever grateful. Sri Guru Datta

    First I should seek knowledge from God. Swamiji is giving it to me. I can always ask Him in me, when I don’t understand. Then I got an answer from Him. I am a very happy person, that it goes so easy. But also for this I must work on me always and always.

    Jaya Guru Datta
    Sri Swamiji gives us profound lessons with each wonderful Musical Message Saying. He helps us to understand and to practice what we have learned through Him in our daily life.
    Pranams to the Divine Lotus Feet of Sri Swamiji.
    Sri Guru Datta

    Jaya Guru Datta! I remember Sri Swamiji mentioning the message in this MMS more than once during discourses. Why? Probably because we are naturally drawn towards praying for wealth first. Sri Swamiji says that it’s foolish to think that the wealth will come in handy when our health fails and we are on our last leg in this birth. When it’s time to go, no wealth can save us. Further, hankering after wealth and luxury distances us from the true goal of this human life, which is to attain liberation. Knowledge gives us the inner peace and calm that through a series of follow up actions lead to a healthy mind and body. If wealth makes me forget the goal of this birth and knowledge and health are the prerequisites to reach my goal, I’d be foolish in praying for wealth alone. I’d be foolish in measuring my success by how much more wealth I made than my neighbors and friends. I’d foolish too, in assuming deliberate/superficial simplicity and praying just for good health. Without knowledge that leads us towards divinity, this life is a waste. Please bless us Sri Swamiji to not be foolish, but be wise and always pray for knowledge first. Obeisances at the Holy Lotus Feet!

    Jaya Guru Datta! Living among us at this very moment is an Avadhoot! One who wants nothing but to bless us with knowledge, health and prosperity. Could we be any more fortunate? Let us not waste one minute, but instead to be willing to receive! Sri Guru Datta!

  2. Jai Guru Datta
    Dear Swami AVADHOOTA
    YOUR advice I will follow and pray for knowledge, I was never interested in wisdom but to get wealth and become healthy.
    Sri Guru Datta big hugs
    Om Namo Hanumate Namaha

    Jai Guru Datta Appaji _/\_!!

    Buddhirbalam yasho dhairyam nirbhayatva marogataa
    Ajaadyam vaakpatutavancha Hanumat smaranaat bhavet.

    Remembering Hanuman is the need of the hour. By merely thinking about Hanuman, He will shower upon us all that we need at the right time. We will be mentally, spiritually, and physically strong as a result. Wealth as Puttuji explains will follow.

    Appaji knows what to give and when.
    What can I seek then except my Sadgurudeva !!
    Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum !!

    Sri Guru Datta !! Om Namo Hanumathe Namaha !!

    • lilashah on January 17, 2013 at 8:00 pm

    Jaya Guru Datta. I ask for the same things I called out to Lord Shiva for many years ago in New York City. I didn’t even know what I was asking for. Maybe I still don’t but one day I hope to understand. I love you so very much Mother. Sri Guru Datta.

    • Dr.S.J. Saikumar on January 17, 2013 at 8:21 pm

    It is natural human tendency to yearn for wealth. Appaji is reminding us once again that knowledge and health are more important than wealth. Jaya guru datta

    • on January 17, 2013 at 10:35 pm

    Appaji has given a very good advice to us today through this MMS. Yes it is a fact that in this kaiyuga normally people pray to God to give first Wealth only. This is because wealth means not only money , but all our other worldly desires also. Appaji says during these charter of demands, we may even forget to give us the other two things which is mentioned in this MSG. In such circumstances what is use of wealth if you don’t have proper health to utilise the same and with out knowledge how we can come up in our life and even to take any decision for any thing properly. Here again according to me, our mind has got an important role. If we are able to control or concentrate or divert our mind in such a way, then it is possible to succeed in our life. Therefore unless in this busy world, we spend sometime daily for developing our spiritual path ,we cannot reach our goal. Here really we need the help of our Sadguru , through His words and teachings we can follow the spiritual path. Hence , Appaji, we are so fortunate to get you as our Sadguru in this kaiyuga and we follow you in all respects. The photography and the Bhajan on Lord Krishna are very apt for this MSG. This we can realise from the story of Mahabartha. Even, Appaji’s the daily MSG in MukundaMala, we can understand the importance of Lord Krishna in Dwaparayuga. JGD.

    Jaya Guru Datta Appaji – great music and wonderful video. most important is the advice leading us to seek knowledge…
    Thank You Appaji

    • Pavani Kamalapuram on January 18, 2013 at 12:47 am

    JGD Appaji
    Appaji knows what and when to give, without us asking. we just need to accept whatever has been bestowed on us as Prasada..
    His presence is Knowledge…just listening to His music, bhajans and teachings is Knowledge. His selfless seva leads to knowledge.

    జీవికకు డబ్బు అవసరంకానీ అన్నీ దానితోనేరావు అన్న సత్యం కొంత కాలానికి అనుభవమవుతుంది. ఆరోగ్యం, సంతోషం,ప్రేమ, నిద్ర, ప్రశాంతత ఇవేవి ధనంతో రావు.కొన్ని లక్షలు పోసి కళాశాలలో సీటు కొనగలం, కానీ చదువు, విజ్ఞానం ఎంత ధనంపోశినా రానివి.ఈ రోజు సందేశం భగవంతుడిని ఏమి అడగాలో తెలుపుతూ కనువిప్పు కలిగించేదిగా ఉన్నది. దత్త భక్తులమైన మా విషయంలో ఏమి అడగాలన్న ప్రశ్న లేదు స్వామీజీ. అమ్మలా, కంటికి రెప్పలా కాపాడే మీరు ఉండగా లేమి దేనిలోనూ మాకు లేదు , ఉండదు స్వామీజీ.జయగురుదత్త.

    Jaya Guru Datta,
    dear Puttuji,
    let me always choose YOU, You are by beloved Krishna. I adore You – surrounded by parrots – I remember Krishna!
    In life we are longing for something – this something we will find in Krishna (Knowledege). This is what I believe with all my heart.
    By following You we will become free one day.

    Hare Krishna,
    Sri Guru Datta

    Jai Guru Datta, thank you for this message Appaji….as one of your newborns, i’m grateful for your compassionate guidance on where to focus my energy while innocently treading the path toward enlightenment….Sri Guru Datta

    • Sarumati on January 19, 2013 at 3:49 am

    During childhood days, striving for wealth was predominant in my life. Mother let it flow.
    So, next step was knowledge, and wealth wasn`t too great, so it didn`t disturb, fortunately.
    because it may be a great hindrance. And health showed and disappeared again, and showed again…
    so I trained to estimate it also. Step by step knowledge, health and wealth puzzled into correct order.
    I`m glad, that this video gives me support in my view. Thank You, dear Datta !

    God is omnipotent, so HE can bless us with anything. It depends on us how assess ourselves and seek for help from God. Knowledge about omnipresent God and knowledge about ourselves is very essential. As we all know “Health is wealth” so healthy life is important requirement. Wealth for survival and prosperity is required to lead a comfortable life in society. With this comfortable life, one should utilise the precious time of life to remember God’s grace and cherish life. Time is precious and God’s grace is most valuable wealth in life. May lord bless us all with wealth of knowledge and health.

  3. Your company gives contentment

    • svetha on February 2, 2013 at 3:46 pm

    My beloved SADGURU, I thank YOU to telling us this order. In this world, in this society we live wealthy things play the central role and that means we need confidence and courage to start with knowledge.
    Koti Pranams.
