Mangalmandir - Maruti Edition (PDF) - Sai Kirtan Group

But as we have no apparatus to visualise Hanumaanji, what is the use of furthering debate
/ argument ? In the Raamaayan, he has been adverbed as Vanar kapi, Kapi-dhar, Kapisreshth.
Nevertheless, there are not separate views about his heroism. Also thee is no
doubt about his amazing strength
Then consider even if Hanumaanji was a monkey, does it present a hurdle? I believe in
the heart of the devotee, there will be no difference towards respect for him. Did not Sri
Vishnu bhagwaan take the forms of Hayagriv, Matsya, Kachchhap, Vaaraaha, and
Narsimha and carry out great tasks. The Lord can take or be seen in any form, but still is
the Lord! When his Lordship is worshipful, then why this argument on his race. This is
the view of my ignorant heart.
For a man faithfully believing, even a stone is God. Therefore there is no difficulty to be
the Lord as Monkey, Vaaraaha, or Kachchhap. For a non-believer even in the very
presence of the Lord, where is the Lord?
Among Bhagwaan Dattaatrey‘s 24 Gurus, they were in the form of serpent, python,
hunter, and prostitute. It is within the dharma conventions of the aryas, that the
characteristics are worshipful, and the very Sri Krishna says in the Gita:
―Yadyadida bhuti mat satvam sri-madu-jimtam-eva vaa
tatta-devaava-gachha tvam mam tejomsha-sam-bhavam‖
Meaning whatever a luminous element, it is part of my form.
Accordingly whether Hanumaanji was a monkey, his Lordship is within that form.
Becaause when in Tretaa yug (age), there were monkeys of such valour, such intellect,
and proficiency, then what would the humans have been like? And what would it be like
if we apply in our lives a miniscule of the message of Mahaavir‘s life and become even
minutely profidient? And we take inspiration from his life and become selfless servant to
God? Would it not bring a Golden age?
It is appropriate to the affectionate readers that human intellect is limited. To give beyond
this our literature was also limited. In this edition there may be errors or shortages – we
ask to forgive those – it is my heartful request.
Despite writing over and over, it is only right to point out that there should not be lack of
finance and buyers of this monthly publication. Wherever you can find the possibility of
adding even two buyers, our difficulties will disappear. When the Lord gives this
inspiration to you, we would not need to make this appeal.
There is black of Maayaa in the human heart. From this fault of our hearts, you may
notice such shortfalls. We request that the benevolent saints, devotees will forgive us for
those errors.
Soulmate to you all – Pandit Mangal Shastri
