Sao Paolo (Brazil),

19 March 2013

 

This was composed by Late Bhupendra Nath Sanyal, last direct disciple of Lahiri Mahasay. Gurudham Ashram was founded by the Venerable yogi Sanyal Mahasay in Bhagalpur (Bihar). It is still an important place of pilgrimage for many Kriyabans of India & abroad. Osnir, who is Shibendu's co-ordinator for Brazil, requested for presentation of this holy prayer to Lahiri Mahasay as message. Osnir, a dynamic Kriyaban and deeply involved in ancient Indian wisdom, will persuade Brazilian Kriyabans to chant this prayer regularly. He knows the tune, which was composed by late Sanyal Mahasay himself. Osnir is a good singer with a sweet voice --- full of devotion.

 

Vilokya Lokaan Kalidusta Chittaan,

Samaavishad Yah Kripayaatma Nisthah.

Gitaiva Pathyaa Khalumukti Hetur,

Yogishwaram Tam Pranamaami Nityam.

 

Awakened Life (Lahiri Mahasay), seeing the plight of humans languishing in the lurch of the divisive mind and separative psyche, suggested them with utmost compassion to devote to Bhagawat-Gita-Wisdom for redemption and radical transformation. One therefore, naturally and ceaselessly, bows down to this Divinity (Lahiri Mahasay) in the supreme state of Yoga.

 

Ye Yogadharmey Kritasamshayaascha

Ye Chaapi Viswas-Vihina-Chittah,

Nihsamshayaastaan Kritavaan Ho Yo

Viswas-Yuktaanapi Mohamuktaan.

 

One wonders at the marvel of this Awakened Life (Lahiri Mahasay) who endowed so much devotion, trust and confusion-less-ness to skeptic separative psyches and who, in addition, revealed the holistic awareness, in spite of the rampant proliferation of divisive consciousness every where.

 

Yo Yogadharma Mritabaddhi Bhuyo

Karot Sajeevam Paridarshya Tasya,

Asimashaktim Nijajivanesmin

Yogishwaram Tam Pranamaami Nityam.

 

Awakened Yogi (Lahiri Mahasay), realising the moribund state of Yoga (due to the pre-occupation of Pandits of the religious market and their rituals galore), revived and revitalised enormous glory, energy and enlightenment of Yoga through the example of His own life! One, therefore, naturally and continuously salutes the Divinity (Lahiri Mahasay), the Supreme Yogi.

 

Grihiha Yo Sou Yativat Sadaiva

Sarvaswavasthaa-Swatala Samaadhow.

Sukhamcha Dukkham Trinavaddhi Yasya

Yogishwaram Tam Pranamaami Nityam.

 

Awakened One (Lahiri Mahasay) was indeed a sannyasi (monk) inwardly, despite His apparent house-holdership. And He was available to uninterrupted energy of equanimity and silence in every situation and remained totally unperturbed in ups and downs, being in the utter division-less-ness or choiceless-ness  of the psyche. One therefore humbly bows down to such a magnificent Divine Yogi.

 

Yo Labdha Siddhih Swayameva Bhutwaa

Kritwaatra Maarga Sugamancha Siddheh.

Dattabhayosmin Khalu Durbalebhyo

Yogishwaram Tam Pranamaami Nityam.

 

Awakened Yogi (Lahiri Mahasay) who by being in perfection Himself made perfection possible for others too, who thus strengthened the weak ones to overcome fear of disappointment. To Him, the Divinity of Yoga, one surrenders in Pranaam in all humility all the time.

 

Namo Yogindra Naathaaya

Yogatatwa Prachaariney.

Amritatwa-Prabodhaaya

Jagataam Guravey Namah.

 

One salutes most respectfully the King of Yoga (Lahiri Mahasay), the Merciful One, who spread the essence of Yoga, thus enabling His devotees to imbibe Immortality despite their mortal being. One salutes once again the World-Teacher par excellence of Yoga.
