RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA---------------------------Pravachan today on the fifth day of the seven-day long Shri Shiv Mahapuran Katha organized by Shri Sanatan Shaktipeeth Sansthanam and Sanatan-Surasari Seva Nyas at Shri Sahadev Giri Temple Katira in the sequence of Shravan Samardhana, Acharya Dr. Bharat Bhushan Ji Maharaj said that the one who has the feeling of charity for everyone is the true devotee of Lord Shiva and he gets all the good fruits. Describing the hundred incarnations of Lord Shiva in Shatrudra Samhita, Nandishwar has called Sanatkumar Ji and the person who is devoted to charity is the favorite devotee of Lord Shiva. The Bhil Bhilni becoming the king and queen in the next birth as Nala Damyanti due to the service of Shiva is a beautiful example of Lord Shiva's love for his devotees. Similarly, Lord Shiva warned Ravana, who used to trouble others, by taking incarnation in the form of Hanuman and also punished him when he did not mend his ways. Through the story of Lord Shiva's Kiratavatar and the story of the twelve Jyotirlingas, Acharya beautifully depicted Lord Shiva's kindness and protection of those who seek refuge. He said that by worshipping Parthiveshwar, Narmadaeshwar or the Shiv Lingas established in your vicinity, all desires are fulfilled and liberation becomes easy. In the morning, Vedic Panchdev Pujan, Shivarchan and Rudrabhishek were performed. On this occasion, a large number of devotees performed worship and listened to the discourse. The arrangements were made by priest Ajay Kumar Mishra and conducted by Madheshwar Nath Pandey.
