मन की शांति के लिए

जब दर्द होता है तो दवाई लेते है, ठीक उसी तरह से अगर मन की शांति चाहिए तो कमरे में – एकांत में बैठकर भगवान का नाम जप करें । अगर श्रद्धा न हो फिर भी नाम जप करें । ईस से शांति मिलती है या नहीं, ईसका प्रयोग करकें देखें । रोज़ बैठके आत्मनिवेदन (भगवान से बात) करें । भगवान को अपना मित्र बनाएं, जैसे मित्र आपके सामने बैठा हो ईस तरह उस से (भगवान से) वर्तन करें ।
वह भावनात्मक रूप से प्रत्यक्ष है । भक्ति के नौ प्रकार है उस में आत्मनिवेदन भी एक प्रकार है ।

हररोज आत्मनिवेदन करने से मन हल्का होगा और मन का बोज़ कम हो जाएगा । ईसी लिए तमाम काम करतें वक्त, अगर आप भगवान का नाम जप करेंगे तो आपके मन में भगवान के साथ (मन ही मन से) एक शृंखला जुड़ जाएगी । भगवान के साथ आपका एक अलग सा रिश्ता बंधेगा जिससे आप में हिंमत, ताकत, साहस, सहनशक्ति, सद्दभाव इत्यादि प्रकट होंगे और अनेक पहेलियों को सुलझाने में सहायरूप होगा ।

हमारें मन, बुद्धि, चित्त, प्राण और अहं (में) भी वह ही (भगवान ही) है । ईसी लिए उस को पुकार करें । उस की सहाय लेने की खेवना रखें । उस के प्रति लापरवाही रखोगे तो वह आपके काम नहीं आएगा । मतलब उस की सहाय लेने की मानवी की तमन्ना होगी तो ही उस की सहाय मिलेगी ।

पुस्तक : मौनमंदिर में प्राणप्रतिष्ठा

लेखक : पूज्य श्रीमोटा

महातीर्थ मौनमंदिर

हरि:ॐ आश्रम स्थित मौनएकांत के कमरें मौनमंदिर नामकरण से प्रसिद्ध है । क्योंकि (यहाँ) ‘जीवात्मा’ अकेले रहकर खुद के हृदय में निवासीत प्रभु को खोजने का संघर्ष करता हैं । पूज्य श्रीमोटा में जो प्रेमरूप परम शाश्वत चेतन का प्राकट्य हुआ है, वह प्रेमरूप परम शाश्वत चेतना के साथ की अविरत, सूक्ष्म अनुभूति यहाँ मौनमंदिर में होती है । ईस तरह से पूज्य श्रीमोटा, मौनमंदिर में रहते हुए ‘जीव’ के साथ सूक्ष्म और गहन रूप से जुड़े रहते है और मौनएकांत के समय में वह ‘जीवों’ की सर्व रूप से रक्षा करतें है एवं उन्हें निरंतर उर्ध्व जीवनविकास की दिशा में मोड़ते है । जो भगवती दिव्य संस्कार संसार में रहतें हुए चित्त में प्रस्थापित नहीं हो सकते, ऐसे वह संस्कार मौनएकांत के समय में चित्त में प्रस्थापित होते है । पूज्य श्रीमोटा ऐसे संस्कारों को वज्र जैसे (बलवान) चिपक जानेवालें बतातें है । मनुष्य के ईस जीवन में एवं उसके बाद में, जब भी यह दिव्य संस्कार जाग्रत होंगे तब वह ‘जीव’ सहजता से परमात्मा (की अनुभूति) के पावनकारी पथ ऊपर प्रयाण करेगा । यह निश्चित ही है ।

पूज्य श्रीमोटाने यह मौनमंदिर को महातीर्थ के नाम से संबोधन किया है, उसका भी गहन तात्पर्य है । मौनमंदिर में दाखिल हुआ ‘जीवात्मा’, अविरत श्रीप्रभु का नाम-जप किए ही जाता है । ईस से उसके ज्ञानतंतु बलवान बनाते है, अंत:करण शुद्ध बनाता है । वह (मौनएकांत में) खुद की प्रकृति की चंचलता, मन के विचार-विकार, वृत्तिओं के आवेग-उभराव को देखता है और समज़ पाता है । ईससे बारंबार वह सात्विक पश्चयताप की तपश्चर्या से हृदय को शुद्ध करता है । मौनमंदिर अनंत चेतनाशक्ति से परिपूर्ण स्थल है । ईस में ‘जीवात्मा’ के मन, बुद्धि, चित्त, प्राण और अहं – यह सारे अपनी उलटपुलट गति से उभरते रहते है, बड़ी मात्रा में निकलते ही रहते है और उन सबका (पश्चयाताप के) यज्ञ में होम-हवन होता ही रहता है । यहाँ अंत:करण के प्राकृतिक आवेगों को कर्मों में परिणामित होने की संभावना ही नहीं होने से जीवन में उनके (प्राकृतिक आवेगों के) संस्कारों का बंधन नहीं होता है । ईसके अतिरिक्त मौनमंदिर में रहनेवाले ‘जीवात्मा’ के अनेक प्रारब्ध कर्मों का भी उदय होता है परंतु वह प्रारब्ध कर्मों अपने संस्कार का सिंचन किए बिना ही पसार हो जाते है । यह सब क्रिया अपने आप होती रहती है जिसका ‘जीवात्मा’ को पता भी नहीं चलता है । यह प्रक्रिया मौनमंदिर में ही होती है, जो अन्य कोई भी तीर्थ-धाम में संभव नहीं है ।

पुस्तक : मौनएकांत की पगदंडी पर

लेखक : श्री रमेश भट्ट

For Peace of Mind

We take medicine to cure the diseases, the same way if you wish to have peace of mind then seat alone in the room (in solitaire) and chant the name of God. If you don’t have faith, then also chant HIS name. Just make an experiment whether you experience peace of mind or not. Seat daily and practice self-confession, talk to God, as if HE is your friend. Behave accordingly as your friend (HE) is sitting in front of you. HE is Omnipresent in form of Bhava (intuitive feelings – intuition). Devotion has nine (9) different methods. self-confession, talking to God is one among them.

Daily if you will make self-confession, talk to God then your mind will become light. Your mental stress will reduced a lot. While performing every work, if you will chant God’s name then your mind will link a specific type of chain with HIM, a special type of connect will develop between you and HIM. This will ignite valor, strength, adventure, tolerance, goodwill and harmony in your being. It will help you resolve many more queries.

HE is Omnipresent. HE is also present in our mind, intellect, chitta (storage of our impressions, sacraments), prana (Life’s force) and Ego. Hence call him. Seek HIS help and remain open for acceptance. If you will remain careless about HIM then HE will not be useful. Hence if human has (strong) desire to take HIS help then only HE will be useful.

Excerpts :

Book : Consecration of Temple of Silence

Writer : Pujya ShreeMota

The Highest Place of Pilgrimage – Silence Room

The Most Sacred Place of Pilgrimage – Silence Room



The silence and solitude rooms of HARIOM Ashram are known as Silence Rooms, because the ‘Jiva’, staying inside, struggles to realize the God, dwelling inside one’s own inner being. The supreme super consciousness, flourished with love is manifested in Pujya Shree Mota, the same supreme super consciousness, flourished with love accompanies here inside this temple of silence to the ‘Jiva’, in its incomprehensible and subtle form. Here Pujya Shree Mota remains, deeply and mysteriously connected with the ‘Jiva’, safeguards and protects the ‘Jiva’ by all round and continuously divert the ‘Jiva’ on the upward path of life advancement. Here the pious-divine sacraments are stored in the Chitta, which is never possible staying in the society. Pujya Shree Mota describes these sacraments – like a bonding of hard cement. During this life or afterwards, as and when these divine sacraments will awaken at that time the ‘Jiva’ will naturally march ahead on the sanctifying path of the God. This is for sure.



Pujya Shree Mota describes this temple of silence as the place of pilgrimage. HIS words contain in-depth significance. Inside the temple of silence the ‘Jiva’ keeps chanting the God’s name nonstop. With this one’s nerve system is strengthen and toned up, it makes one’s conscience pure. Inside silence-solitude one can view and understand the fickleness and twists of one’s own tendencies, thoughts and negativity of the mind and can observe and understand the impulse and emergence of instincts. With this (experience) often, one purifies the heart by penance of sattvic repentance. Temple of silence is full of incomprehensible consciousness. Here the mind, intellect, vital forces (prana) and ego all of them overflow in vice a versa directions and get flush out. All of their (sacraments) continue to be sacrificed in the fire of repentance. Here the inner being’s fickleness and twists of tendencies has no scope to be converted in to the karma and hence their sacraments cannot bound in the life. Over and above there are many destiny and karma driven sacraments arise to the ‘Jiva’ sitting inside the temple of silence but they just pass by without pasting the impressions of new sacraments. Such a secret action happens inside temple of silence without the awareness of ‘Jiva’, which is not at all possible in any other pilgrimage.

Instructions / Rules after Booking & upon entering Silence Rooms:

The mission of Pujya ShreeMota is to uplift the society from the deep slumber of ages. Like Swami Vivekanand, he wanted to uplift the society in all the fields of life viz. spiritual, physical and educational. Out of these three, spiritual is the most important field. A sunflower always blossoms towards the sun. Likewise Shree Mota wished to make the common man blossom facing (Abhimukh) the Almighty.

To accomplish this HE formed a unique facility for Sadhana. Pujya ShreeMota is one of the Greatest Souls our motherland have ever produced! He has done Pran Pratishtha of CHETAN –GOD in this place ! These moun temples alias moun rooms are the live places of GOD. Moun rooms are the means, of Shree Mota to make spiritual change in an aspirant.

During HIS period of Sadhna Pujya Shree Mota had to undergo many a hardships for want of a suitable, solitary place and in getting regular supply of food. To save others from such troubles and worries, HE established Ashrams with Moun Mandirs (Silence Rooms) to provide Spiritual aspirants with an absolutely secluded, safe shelter and a regular supply of food with other daily necessities. These rooms may quite properly term as “Caves of old times with modern facilities.” These silence rooms are available for every one without any discrimination of caste, creed & religion.

Importance Of Moun Sadhana :

Pujya Shri Mota has explained the practice of Sadhna as “Development of Abhay, Namrata, Moun & Ekant (To practice Fearlessness, Politeness, Silence and Loneliness). All these four measures will transform our inner being from outward to introvert conversion.” Aspirants can chant Mantra, shloka, sing rhymes, bhajans, meditate, read, and dance in state of being for love & affection for Almighty God. The aspirants in the Moun Mandirs, completes their silence days with the help & guidance of Pujya Shree Mota’s forever present consciousness. Aspirant purifies own self with holy water of God’s constant incantation (Jap chanting) & fills heart & mind with ecstatic lightness. As a complimentary process of Sadhna & frequent use of Moun Mandir, the aspirant becomes introvert with keen awareness of his/her shortcomings. Forever alive consciousness of Pujya Shree Mota helps to meditate & pray for long hours with concentration. Prayers & Meditation in these Silence rooms purify the Mind and Create indelible and powerful impressions – sacraments (‘Sanskaras’), that will definitely rise at appropriate time and make the pilgrimage path (seeking of Realization) smoother. Silence doesn’t mean silence of utterance but silence of thoughts, urges & attitude. The exalted ‘Sanskaras’ developed & imprinted in Moun Mandir are strong and helpful to one to sustain any circumstances of difficult times. Whatever Name, Fame, Wealth, Power and Position we earn in this world – none will accompany us in next birth. Only right & wrong impressions – sacraments (‘Sanskaras’) will accompany us in the next birth. The impressions – sacraments (‘Sanskaras’) of Divine consciousness, prayers, meditation etc. All the penance cultivated inside the Moun Mandir (Silence room) will be pasted on our Chitta (One of the four aspects of consciousness, lower mind. Aspect which reflects our past deed (like a mirror) and stores impressions of it), as strong as glue which will reflect and uplift the aspirant on faster progressive path of Realization in coming births.
