તારા દર્શન કેમ થતા નથી??

તારા દર્શન કેમ થતા નથી?

મારા પર ઉપકાર કેમ થતો નથી?

કહ્યુ હેરાન હુ ~ તોપણ છુ તો તારો,

મારા પર વિશ્વાસ કેમ થતો નથી?

તારા ખોળામા હુ ચુપચાપ રડી લેત,

આવો એકવાર મોકો કેમ થતો નથી?

લાખો પાપી ને તાર્યા છે તે,

મારો ઉધ્ધાર કેમ થતો નથી?

તારી મહેરબાની ના ચાર શબ્દોથી,

આ દાસ સમીર હકદાર કેમ થતો નથી???

મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

આભાર મિત્રો,
છેલ્લા કેટલાય વખત થી હું અહી જાત જાત ના status પોસ્ટ કરતો રહ્યો છું. અને ઘણી વાર તેમાં એક યા બીજી રીતે અમુક વ્યક્તિઓની, વ્યક્તિઓના સમૂહ ની કે સંપ્રદાય ની લાગણી દુભાયી હશે. મેં પોસ્ટ કરેલા ફોટોગ્રાફ્સ થી પણ કદાચ કોઈને મેં હાની પહોચાડી હશે, કોઈના status પર કે ફોટોગ્રાફ પર હાની પહોચાડે તેવી કોમેન્ટ પણ કરી હશે. આ તમામ વખતે મેં મારા એગોઈસ્મ થી દોરાઈ ને તેમ કરેલું હતું તેવું મને ભાન થયું છે. હું આજે ફરીથી તે એક એક પ્રશંગોને યાદ કરીને, મારા આત્મા ની સાક્ષી એ હું તમામ વ્યક્તિઓની માફી માંગું છું. અને મારી એ ચેષ્ટાઓની આલોચના કરું છું. અને હવે પછી તે રીતની ચેષ્ટાઓ ફરીથી ના થાય તેની કાળજી રાખવાનો સનિષ્ઠ પ્રયત્ન કરીશ. તમેય મોટું મન રાખીને મને માફ કરી દેશો.

નેટ ને છોડીને મારી સાથે કરેલા મારા સહેવાસ, અને તે દરમ્યાન થોડીક પળોને પાછું વાળીને જોવાની મને એક તક મળી, આટ આટલી મુલાકાતો પછી પણ મારામાં રહેલો મહાવીર જાગતો નથી ? આરો ખરાબ નથી દરરોજ હજારો  મહાવીર  પેદા થયી સકે તેવું વાતાવરણ કુદરત સર્જે જ છે. પણ મારા એન્ટેના હું ક્યાંક બીજે ગોઠવીને બેઠો છું. :( 

આપ સૌ ખરેખર મોટા મનના છો, આ સમગ્ર વિશ્વ આપના જેવા મોટા મનના "માણશો" થી ભરપુર છે તેની પ્રતીતિ થયેલી. અને તેના તમો જીવતા જાગતા ઉદાહરણો છો, જે મારી ભૂલોને સાહજીકતાથી ક્ષમા બક્ષી સકે છે.

ફરી ઘેર ઘેર હું, કરું છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

હ્રદય પર હાથ મૂકી હું કહું છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

વલોવીને હ્રદયના, આ મનોમંથનનાં અંતે

વહાવી આંસુઓ હું ધરું છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

સમ્યકની ટેવ ક્યા હતી?, બસ ભૂલો કરી હતી

ઢંઢોળી "મને " જ હું કહું છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

શરીર નાં ખોખા વાસ્તે,કરી છે વાસના મેં બહુ

ઉતારી કાંચળી ને હું ઈચ્છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

જગતનો તાત જો તું છે, તો હું બાળ તારો છું

પડી ઘુટણએ હું ચાહું છું મિચ્છામી દુક્કડમ

A Real Life SHRAVIKA at tender age :)

I have all while grown hearing great stories of Shravika's in Jainism but always regretted that I never got a chance to personally know anyone of such. but really today I am very much happy to know a real life "Shravika" in all means :) So just thought to share this real life incident. I AM NOT NAMING HER AS I KNOW SHE WONT LIKE GETTING NAMED.

It happened in 2010 July with her when some Maharajsaheb's had started going towards Surat from Vadodara just a month before Chaturmas. About 15Km's from Vadodara, Suddenly 1 truck came from behind & injured 2 of Maharajsaheb's & fled off. Both Maharajsaheb's were severely injured. Some passing car's stopped & called ambulance & Maharajsaheb were immediately rushed to Global Multispeciality Hospital. All maharajsaheb came back again at Vadodara. Upashray was 3Km's far from that place & as per hospital rules only 2 ms were allowed to stay. One of the maharajsaheb who got injured got 249stitches & got in senses after 7 days.

Maharajsaheb's managed for 2/3 days by travelling 2-3 Km's daily & decided to find out a space near to hospital so that they can look after daily. They reached a home nearby which they felt must be a home of Jain Shravak & here the incidents begin:

A girl was only there in that house as her parents had gone to someone's funeral. Maharajsaheb told her entire events & asked her that if any space is available nearby or in colony where they can stay. The girl just a TEEN immediately asked maharajsaheb's to stay at her place only. Maharaj told her that they were 11 so how would they mange & its not yet sure how many days they would have to stay cause of hospitalization. Further they cant even accede to a girl's request.

But that girl called up her parents & got permission from her dad immediately who also agreed immediately without even giving it another thought. The entire family cleared room for them & they all came in 1 room itself. All 11 maharajsaheb stayed there for 17days. Entire family looked after them greatly in addition to doing great care of injured sadhu bhagvant's. Undoubtedly neighbors too came forward in this great cause & getting moments to serve sadhu sadhvi bhagvant's. Maharajsaheb's too took great care while at their place not to put anyone into any harassment & 8 of them used to keep ayambil's & used to travel 4Km's daily to get Nirdosh Gochari.

Many well wishers & sansarik family members used to come in daily to know about health of maharajsaheb. All those great soul's took proper care of them too doing a great SADHARMIK BHAKTI. The girl was having her MBA Entrance exam in next week but she had kept her books aside & was completely devoted in looking after all maharajsaheb in addition to all others in her family.

17 days all Maharajsaheb stayed there & girl too scored well in her exams. Everyone in family were in tears when they left.

-What a great girl who immediately took that decision inspite of her exams
-What a family who readily accepted small girl's decision, surely they would be really very proud of their daughter.
-& surely great neighbors who too came forward

-& sadhu bhagvant's undoubtedly most great who looked after that no harassment/load etc is caused to the family.

In one ages a kid without even a thought gave away all his kheer to muni bhagvant & becomes the GREAT SHALIBHADRA & here a girl in her early twenties without a thought does a great vaiyavach of all saints while not giving a thought to any inconvenience which she may face at home or her exams or her schedules etc & really great parents who all way supported her. I know surely she is a great soul & gonna be greater in her upcoming life.

NEEDLESS hats off to that Girl & her family. Very less teens get such beautiful & great thoughts like you. :) Whatever anumodna I do shall be less, KOTI KOTI ANUMODNA..

At time the youth is deviating away from spiritual aspects & humanity, you really are a great flame of inspiration for all of us.

An Idol which smiles at its followers ~ Simandhar Swami Jinalay, Patanvav

Today just would like to enlighten you all with a great new SRI SIMANDHAR SWAMI JINALAY of Patanvav (Near Dhoraji, Gujarat). YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO SEE A TEETH OF LORD VISIBLE IN THIS SNAP so just follow on this post to know its story.

I heard about this Jinalay from my ben Maharaj saheb & a Veer Sainik who were all praise for the temple & which inspired me to visit it. Finally I visited this temple in October 2011 & was astonished to note the following:

1. 1st Temple where i saw a board outside that it accepts no donation & there were not even a single Bhandar in that entire temple premises. Even they dont take Naivaidh/fruits etc.

2. Just see the Pratimaji's snap. Its so laughing that it enters heart in a moment & just think that if snap is this than what would be original idol like. Its just AWESOMELY AMAZING.

3. Here rules are strictly followed, Male's & Female's do puja separately. When Male's are inside, female's are not allowed in & vice versa. Female's are not allowed to enter without keeping duppatta or pallu on their head.

4. NO PHOTOGRAPHY is allowed, they themselves give this snap for free with request to make 9 copies & forward others.

& if I go on narrating my experience than it would take lot many pages but for all of you here's the story of the upcoming of this temple:

There used to live a Kanti bapu in village of Patanvav & who is being said to become a Dev after his death. After becoming a Dev, he went to MAHAVIDEH KSHETRA & saw Simandhar swami & IT IS BEING SAID THAT THIS IDOL IS REPLICA OF how Simandhar Swami looks as its made by a dev. I am not able enough to vouch all this but can surely ADD that I have never seen such an Idol with so much shine, smile, grace etc on parmatma's face. This temple has came up very soon due to daivi sahay & doesnt take a penny from anyone as it is said that all temple expenses are provided by Kanti Bapu who has became a Dev.

Its also said that once while Pujan, Idol had laughed & ENTIRE 32 TEETHS of Parmatma were visible. One Person tried taking snap of it from his cell & immediately idol stopped laughing but while snap was taken, one teeth remains still visible (ITS SAME SNAP TAKEN FROM THAT CELL).

There is nearby a Dharamshala & upcoming Tirth, DHANKGIRI, 2-3KM's near to This Jinalay where boarding lodging can be done. Even Dhankgiri Tirth is a must visit place with Snatra Mandir on OSAM Hill & Siddh Chakra Mandir on foothills.

IN CASE YOU WANT TO VISIT & WANT TO HAVE MORE DETAILS, FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME.

New Year 2011

27.10.2011: It was Gujarati New Year. Its said that after Nirvana (Moksh) of Lord Mahavir a reign of darkness prevailed which got illuminated with Guru Gautam attaining Keval Gyan the next day, hence we Jains celebrate it as our New Year. Every New Year I just love to hop around from one home to another of close relatives seeking blessings from them & wishing them "Nutan Varshabhinandan" a very happy new year.

But alas! this year it was quite different. The day started good with chant of Nav Smaran & Puja of Simandhar Swami. But had been feeling unwell since many days as had 15 days Gujarat & New Delhi tour from 1st to 15th October & thereafter was occupied with one of my mama who was unwell & hospitalised since 15th October. The worst part that his son & daughter in law also fell prey to Chickenguinea fever. But somehow mamaji recovered & just got discharged on Diwali day to celebrate it at his home.

But now back to my new year day.. Tried coming office & immediately thereafter had to go to see Doctor as health conditions went worse. Then also tried & met parents of 2 friends at their respective home's. Did blood tests & was detected with very high viral fever which meant complete 5 days rest & no more moving from bed, No sweets, No Junk food :( :( (which I missed most) etc etc.

So in all New Year 2011 went bad in bed except for the chants of Nav Smaran & puja of lord Simandhar. Hoping that Year goes off well which started from disasters.
