Hanuma Chaitanyam

d the way for establishment of peace and order in the society. In my most humble moment of introspection, I am constrained to feel that seldom did I ever imagine that the ruthless torture and torment that had befallen me about twenty six years ago would inspire me into establishing a pedestal and naming it as ‘Sanjeevini Peetham’ dedicated purely to the service of the Lord and spiritually minded devotees and religious aspirants. The very thought of Sanjeevini restores confidence and rekindles hope that enables the devotee to face challenges and upheavals in life with courage and conviction. It is the same stimulus which goaded my persevering mind, encouraged and enlivened by the Lord, enabled the Peetham to acquire a piece of land at Dusi near Kancheepuram and install an idol of Lord Hanuma that would cater to the spiritual and religious pursuits of the devotees. I had made several offerings to the Lord in the form of fruits, betel leaves, laddus, vadas, appams etc and used to console myself that what I offered to Him was the ones that He liked most. But it did not take much time for me to realise that there was something amiss in what I was offering and realised, belatedly though, that it was the one and only one Bhagavad Gita, in addition to the routine offerings, that is dear to the Lord which would please Him the most. It is this realisation that the chanting of Bhagavad Gita would not only enable an individual to lead the life of immense happiness and glory in the midst of what all that the mundane world offers but please the Lord too, that made me steadfast in my determination to spread the message of Gita. The seat of ‘Sanjeevini Peetham’ situated at Dusi near Kancheepuram in the midst of pleasant surroundings and enlivening environs offers a most congenial and serene atmosphere to pursue the spiritual goals and chant Bhagavad Gita in a mass gathering that paves the way for love, peace and compassion among the humanity.
