Hanuman Chalisa

With the dust of the Guru’s Lotus feet, I first clean the mirror of my heart… so goes the Chalisa. Of the various characters in Ramayana, Shri Hanumanji has a special individuality of his own. We find him to be a repository of many virtues and an erudite scholar of the Vedas and other shastras. But the greatest of his qualities is his devotion. In the course of these sessions, Pujya Swami Swaroopananda has elaborately given out Shri Hanumanji’s quality of devotion and service to Shri Ramachandraji.

Narada Bhakti Sutra

Pujya Guruji’s interpretations of Narada Bhakti Sutra dance with the nuances of an ecstatic and enduring relationship with the Lord of one’s heart that becomes the bedrock of a devotees’ life. This divine love is all-consuming, yet purging and freeing in its impact. The devotee trusts the Lord like a friend, cherishes Him like a child, and is faithful to Him like a wife. Where then is the need or the place for any other worldly relationship? Joy or sorrow, it is the Lord alone for him. He will play, pray, fight and frolic only with the Lord in his hearts shrine. Go for it! Get engulfed by a relationship that lasts lifetime, riding on giant waves of beatific beauty!

Sankat Mochan

The Sankat Mochan also known as Shri Hanuman Ashtakam, which follows the devotional classic Shri Hanuman Chalisa, is one of the most popular compositions of Goswami Tulsidasaji. It is a moving prayer from a lamenting heart pleading with the ever compassionate Hanumanji, who is well-known for alleviating the distresses of even the most exalted spiritual personalities. It also reveals secretly the causes of our inner bondage and sorrows and how these can be removed effectively.

Pujya Swami Swaroopananda not only brings out the beautiful sentiments of these verses but also inspires viewers to invoke Sankat Mochan Shri Hanumanji to extinguish the causes of sorrow in their lives and to find peace at the feet of Lord Rama’s most extraordinary devotee.
