Lessons in Sanatana Dharma



Pujya Shree AsaramJi Bapu and his teachings have been compared by his disciples as sacred manna from the heaven and one of those many is his lesson on the greatness of Sanatana Dharma.

Pujya Shree told his disciples told that Sanatana Dharma is an ancient religion that is not only followed in this world but also in other planes of existence. This great religion was followed by enlightened men, emperors and kings since time immemorial. Different religions have come to existence and ended but Sanatana Dharma has remained consistent and has shown the path to advancement and progress to entire humanity for ages. Sanatana Dharma have existed in the heart of every human being in the form of eternal truth. Awakening of the eternal truth shows man the path to eternal bliss. The closer a person is to the truth, the happier he is going to be and more likely to awaken dormant powers by connecting with Absolute Consciousness.

Instead of doing that the modern man is busy aggrandizing his person and seeking material wealth and bliss that eventually lead him away from real happiness and make him sadder by the day. Even worse is the sad fact that man still run after these futile goals hoping to be gratified but unfortunately that is just not the case. In doing that the individual loses his own self and drifts further away from his Supreme self.

Pujya BapuJi teaches his students that anyone who has attained his own inner self is the one who has attained supreme happiness. It is the truth of nature that every man and woman who has come to this world will eventually be consigned to flames and those who did nothing but indulge in material pursuits is the biggest loser because he loses not only all of his material possessions but also the precious time of his life that he or she could have used to attain Eternal Peace.


Thus those who have listened and imbibed the precious teachings of the Saint will be have not only made his life better but also would have accumulated invaluable nuggets for his or her personal life. Lessons such as these taught by our revered Pujya Shree are very necessary at a time such as these when anti-nationalistic forces are trying to tear apart the fabric of unity woven together by great Saints of our nation.
