Mangalmandir - Maruti Edition (PDF) - Sai Kirtan Group

Nine editions of the first year had already been published and no decision had been taken
on the special edition of ―MangalMandir‖ : by accident two events took place which
immediately prompted publication of Maruti edition.
Normally for the last 15 to 20 years reading and writing tasks have been ongoing till 12
to 1 o‘clock in the nights. But one night I was reading 31 st chapter of ―Bhagvati Kathaa‖
published through compilation / editorship of Shri Prabhudatta Bhramchaariji : I read the
new event of ―Hanumaanji‘s cliking of fingers‖ and went to bed to sleep.
And that same night as if Hanumaanji cliking his fingers gave instruction to publish
Mangal Mandir‘s Maruti Edition; and to do it with haste.
Even so, I did not pay too much attention. Thereafter I had different opinions of a few
eminent scholar friends, and per chance on the fifth day received letters of some wellwishing
friends of Mangal Mandir – with requests to publish ―Maaruti Edition‖. I looked
at the dates of these letters which coincided with the night of Hanumaanji‘s instruction to
me.
And thenceforth leaving aside other special editions, decision was reached to publish
Maaruti edition..
Getting necessary publishing material for the Maaruti edition presented difficult ! A great
part of Mahaavir Hanumaanji‘s life is portrayed in Vaalmiki Raamayan and
GoswaamiShri Tulsidaasji‘s Ramcharit Manas. Most people also know just those
events.So most of the publication material received from saints, great people and writers
was similar in content – to the extent that without heavy editing the articles would just
duplicate in the special edition. Which left a small portion for publication and dilemma if
material cannot be obtained – what action to take !
You have all seen the times of rationing (referring to the second world war when shortage
of food and other necessities prevailed), what happens when family‘s cooking has been
matched to availability and if suddenly a few guests arrive ?
Just so, I was placed in same circumstances. Even in this situation the great intellectual
Marutidev found me a way ! In enough proportion but good literature got collected, and
the sweet offering that got prepared is in your sight
Maruti and social environment
At the most appropriate opportunity, inspiration was received for this Maruti edition, and
that is God‘s grace. Today most countries are engaged in increasing their power, some by
weapons while some by engaing in aiding other countries and increasing their influence.
In these circumstances, none is prepared to be a ―Mahaavir‖ ! No one has the inspiration
to simply perform service to all people !
Bhaarat (India) is still not this league. Because it is the territory of Mahaavir. It‘s past
tendencies of previous ages prevents it from acquiring such ego:
