Muniraj en babajiThe full moon in July is dedicated to the Guru, the outer and inner Guru, the wisdom leading our life from darkness to light. On Sada Shiva Dham, this day is dedicated to Mahavatar Babaji and Muniraji, who brought the original inspiration and Light to start our ashram.
This day we celebrate with Paduka Puja, Aarti and Havan, Satsang. The exact date differs every year. See agenda of the year for the exact date. Everyone is invited. Preferably come a day earlier.

The program is about the same every year.
In the morning we start with the Paduka Puja at the Babaji Kutir (hut), then there is the Aarti ceremony, followed by a Paduka Puja with Abishek in the temple, a ceremony for Babaji and all gurus who help the people to follow the right path in life.
Around 10 or 11 o’clock, the havan, Vedic fire ceremony is scheduled, and in the afternoon Satsang with the theme “The inner and outer guru, sharing experiences”.
After the havan and in the afternoon there is time for karma yoga. The warm vegetarian lunch is at noon. Bhole Baba ki jai!

Vishnu Dutt Shastriji about Babaji and Sanatan Dharma

Babaji is not preaching any new religion. He has come to preach the religion, which occurred at the time of Creation, and that is the Sanatan Dharma – the Eternal Religion. He has come to preach the Sanatan Dharma only. We can determine the date from which every religion started. For example, the Muslim religion was started by Mohammed 1400 years ago and this is recorded in their scriptures. Christianity started with birth of Christ, 2000 years ago. Before Christ and Mohammed existed, the world and its people were living. The Sanatan Dharma has been followed for thousands and millions of years and no one is able to trace the date it began. You may try to understand this spontaneous religion this way: the dharma (law or nature) of fire is to burn; the dharma of water is to be wet; the air has to blow. Can one tell on what day the fire started to burn, the water to be wet, and the air to blow? No one can say. Sanatan Dharma is like a great ocean. From that ocean, each country has dug canals according to their needs and purposes. But canals cannot give total satisfaction as the ocean gives complete bliss. The Lord is showing a vision of the Sanatan Dharma, which is like the great ocean, and this is the greatest form of knowledge. Until now, people only had knowledge of their canals. Now the Lord is showing us that we aren’t just bubbles in a canal, but rather bubbles in the great ocean. As long as we have individuality, we are seen as bubbles; when we disappear, we are one with the ocean.

Babaji:

“In any town there is always a central place; all the roads in the town or from out of town lead to that central place. Similarly, all religions lead to one point, and that is God Himself; and therefore following any religion you will ultimately reach God.”

“I have come to guide humanity to a higher path. I do not belong to any particular religion, but respect all religions. I seek the elevation of all mankind.

“One can follow any religion, one can follow any practice or path, but one must be humane.”
