Contact: Dilip sashital -9920132925 February 2020 KANARA SARASWAT 8 From the President’s Desk .... We all wake up in the morning in different states of mind. State of mind is a person’s mood and the effect that mood has on that person’s thinking and behaviour. Very often, the state of mind when you wake up in the morning decides the course of the day for every individual. The state of mind when you get up is usually dependant on the events of the previous day. So, you can get up in the morning with different states of mind, but very quickly you can decide the state of mind that you would like to have on that day and decide your course of action. It is basically the mind game that you need to master and work on. No point in blaming the circumstances or others. It’s all in your mind. According to psychologists, one of the core ideas of cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy is that if you can consciously pay attention to and then deliberately shape what you think. This process can, in turn shape your moods and state of mind. The goal should be to keep driving down the middle of the rational road rather than sliding off into emotional ditches. The psychologists usually talk of six common states of mind. 1) Rational- this is the gold standard, the middle of the road where you are able to maintain a reasonable and rounded perspective. This is where you should always be. 2) Anxious- this is a common state of mind which keeps you sleepless in every small or big, existing or non-existing situation in your life. 3) Depressed- if anxiety is about the future, depression is about the past - mistakes, regrets, roads not taken and which very often take you to the feeling that ‘life has no purpose’. 4) Angry- you feel cheated, you feel the world is unfair to you and you keep plotting to do something against the so-called unfair world. 5) Fearful- everyday fear is when you feel intimidated by someone even though in your rational mind you realise that there is no sane reason to do so.

Karnataka State 581 354 Important Announcement for Sādhaka-s holding Foreign passports and Overseas Sabhā-s/ Overseas Entities In terms of the current FCRA Regulations and Guidance in force, all Indian entities receiving remittances from Foreign sources (foreign passport holders and entities set up abroad) are required to open a new Primary FCRA account with the State Bank of India (SBI), New Delhi Main Branch before 31st March 2021. Thereafter, remittances from such foreign sources will have to be received only in this account with SBI. Shrī Chitrāpur Math and its affiliated Entities who are registered under FCRA, have applied for opening of such Primary FCRA Account with SBI NDMB, and are awaiting the formalities to be completed in the near future. Therefore, as of now, Shrī Chitrāpur Math and its Affiliated Entities are not in a position to accept any Donation, Vantigā, Math Maryādā, Sevā Charges, Gīrvāṇapratishthā (Prabodhaḥ- Ārādhana/Gīrvāṇavaikharī) donations, or funds for any other purpose from any foreign passport holder or any of our Overseas Sabhā-s / Overseas Entities, after 31st March 2021, till the formalities of Account opening with SBI are completed. Since any violation of this rule could have serious consequences for SCM and its Affiliated Entities, sādhaka-s holding foreign passports are urged, until further notice, to refrain from transferring any funds to FCRA accounts in India on account of the above heads, or for any other purpose. To ensure FCRA compliance and prevent inadvertent credits into the FCRA accounts of our different Trusts after 31st March 2021, the FCRA accounts of the various Trusts have been frozen.

  • Brahmakalashotsavaḥ 15Th April 2021 - 19Th April 2021
    SHRĪ CHITRĀPUR MATH® - ShiralĪ Phone: (08385)258368/258756 SHIRALI-Kanara E-mail: [email protected] Uttara Kannada Dist. Karnatak State 581 354 II Oṁ Shrī Gurubhyo Namaḥ II II Oṁ Shrī Bhavānīshaṅkaraya Namaḥ II II Oṁ Shrī Matre Namaḥ II Brahmakalashotsavaḥ 15th April 2021 - 19th April 2021 With the Blessings of His Holiness Shrīmat Sadyojāt Shaṅkarāshram Swāmījī Mathādhipati, Shrī Chitrāpur Math, Shirālī Jai Shaṅkar to all the devotees of Shrī Chitrāpur Math, In a series of solemn and auspicious ceremonies unlike any in living memory, the Shrī Chitrāpur Math at Shirālī will witness a Brahmakalashotsavaḥ between 15th April 2021 and 19th April 2021 in the Divine Presence of our revered Mathādhipati H.H. Shrīmat Sadyojāt Shaṅkarāshram Swāmījī. A day before the ceremonies begin in Shirālī, Prārthanā-s will be offered at the Samādhi Math-s in Gokarṇa, Mallāpur, MaṅgaĪūru and Kārlā. The Brahmakalashotsavaḥ will mark the beginning of two important events for the Chitrāpur Sāraswat-s: the 75th Janma Diwasa year of Guruswāmī H.H. Shrīmat Parijñānāshram Swāmī III which falls on 15th June 2022 and the 25th year of the Mathādhipatya of H.H. Shrīmat Sadyojāt Shaṅkarāshram Swāmījī on 21st February 2022. The Brahmakalashotsavaḥ is a fervent prayer of the Samāja for the continued omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient Sānidhya of our Math Deities, and that their benevolent blessings forever be upon our people. Amidst Sāmuhika Prārthanā-s and Homa-s, 1009 Kalasha-s will be offered as part of the ceremonies. Given the current travel restrictions in force, Sādhaka-s can participate in the Brahmakalashotsavaḥ by sponsoring Kalasha-sevā-s, offering special Sevā-s, and through contributions.
