Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan (“DJJS”) organized a 7 day Bhagwan Shiv Katha at Jodhpur, Rajasthan from 17th to 23rd September, 2022 under the supreme guidance of His Holiness Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji (Head & Founder, DJJS). A day before the Katha, on 16th September, 2022, a grand Peace March (“Kalash Yatra”) was organized to mark the auspicious beginning of Katha Amrit. Hundreds of disciples carrying Kalash on their head participated in the Peace March. Large number of devotees from near and far attended the Katha Amrit for attaining the grace of Lord Shiva. Audience was mesmerised with the divine aura and the melodious spiritual bhajans. The Katha was Webcasted on YouTube Channel of DJJS from 20th to 26th September, 2022.
The orator of Katha, Sadhvi Garima Bharti Ji (Preacher disciple of Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji) unfolded the spiritual treasures from the life and deeds of Lord Shiva who is considered as destroyer of evil and the transformer and is thus regarded as “Constructive destroyer”. But Shiva dissolves to generate since death is indispensable for new life(rebirth). She further explained that the outer appearance of Lord Shiva is different from any other God and has spiritual significance.
The ash smeared on the body of Shiva reminds that everything in the universe is perishable and nothing is going to remain with the person. The message is that ‘you have come in this world without anything and will go back without anything, then why worry’. Three folds of snake symbolizes the – Past, Present and Future. Shiva has overpowered time with the power of spirituality.
Maha-Yogi Shiva advocated the eternal science of self-realization and is always in a meditative state of mind which indicates serenity and elevated consciousness. He is often called Triyambhkam, Trinetra etc. The third eye on forehead of Lord Shiva symbolizes turning inwards through spiritual awakening. Only after attaining the ‘Divine Eye’ as possessed by Lord Shiva, one can rise above over the bodily level. Therefore, it is stated in scriptures also that only after inner awakening, one can attain wisdom and become spiritual in real terms. Sadhvi Ji asserted that our scriptures proclaim that every human being possesses this 'Third Eye' which can be activated only by the true spiritual master of the era.
Brahm Gyan – Divine Knowledge is the need of the hour for a balanced socio-spiritual life, which can be attained only with the blessing of the Perfect Spiritual mentor of the time. In this regard, said Sadhvi Ji, the doors of DJJS will always remain open. She concluded that the meditation based on spiritual knowledge is the only perennial source of joy and satisfaction.
The Katha was dedicated to one of the social initiatives of DJJS, “Kamdhenu - The Indian Cow Breed Improvement & Conservation Program”, which is primarily focused on re-establishing value of Indian Cow as pivot of any ideal sustainable society. Many dignitaries also marked their presence at the Katha, namely Shri Raghavendra Kachwal (District & Sessions Judge, Jodhpur), Shri Ajay Kumar Sharma (Vice Chancellor, MBM University), Smt. Vanita Seth (Mayor, South Jodhpur), Smt. Ruma Devi (International Motivational Speaker & Social Worker), Shri Nirmal Gehlot (Director Utkarsh Classes), Shri Vikram Singh Yadav (Director, DPS School), Shri Sumer Singh Rajpurohit (Vice President, Gau Seva Aayog Rajasthan), Shri M.S. Charan (Chief Engineer Discom, Jodhpur), Shri Om Singh Rajpurohit (District Education Officer, Jodhpur), Shri P.P Rohilla (Principal Scientist CAZRI, Jodhpur).
The leading Print media such as Dainik Bhaskar, Dainik Navjyoti, Rajasthan Star, Seva Bharti, Rajasthan Patrika etc. also wrote about the program and immensely contributed to disseminate the seeds of Dharma all across the country. The program successfully connected the devotees with Shiva at the level of soul.
