Speech of HH Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji on completion of 130 million views of Shata Shloki Ramayana on Vimeo – Universal Prayer Hall – Mysore – September 8, 2012
Today we completed Shata Shloki Ramayana 130 million views. Friday night, early hours of Saturday morning at 3 am this was completed. Nearly 76 countries participated in this. So many chineese devotees also participated. In the geography statistics, USA stood at first place. India at second. Some other countries like Malaysia and Singapore on 3rd place. I have seen the complete geography system- how many people and how many countries. Especially my close devotees. Day and night they are seeing on iphone and ipad also. 24 hours they are watching because they wanted to complete 13 crores before London concert. Last year we have uploaded this video during London program. Now we want to do mangalam before going to London. We want to perform Sri Rama special puja. We completed Ayodhya program and completed hanuman murthi also, a beautiful carving. Sculptors gave prana pratishta. Tomorro morning, we will perform small aarthi in early morning, after noon Swamiji will be leaving for London via Bangalore and Mumbai.
I’m so happy that so many coutries watched Shata Shloki Ramayana. A minimum of 78 countries to a maximum of 160 countries regularly watched. Many saw this some 100 times and felt happy. Some saw 10 times. Some others saw thousands of times. Some said, dont stop, else we become allergetic if we dont listen to it. It became a habit. Healing habit. We can understand if our Indians are watching. But it is great that all countries watched. Many wrote emailsabout the music and voice in it. We are planning t print a book of all those mails. After so many mails, Appaji’s voice is in trouble due to this evil eye. Dont worry. Soon it will be alright. Many schools conducted competitions on Shata Shoki. In Hyderabad movie actors performed on this. I couldnt go. Andhra prabha magazine people also performed on Shata Shloki Ramayana. Mome dancers did a ballet on Shata shloki. The recent dance program was good. I felt like I’m in Bali. This video is not even HD. It is an ordinary one. They made a DVD and cartoons also. Now it is coming in ETV Telugu. In Kannada also it will come soon in ETV Kannada. It is getting ready in all languages. With in 100 slokas, entire ramayana is heard. Tomorrow Swamiji will do aarthi and start for London. You all also do Hanuman vratham and Rama vratham in your houses. Dont leave Rama mantram. Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama. It is impossible to do 13 crores in our life time. Now I am going for a meeting with all the Shata Shloki Ramyana group. I’m happy, you all are listening to Bala Swamiji’s Ramayana. What is today’s episode ? Oh ! Vibheeshana came to Rama. Nice one. Leave all evil relatives, and friends, be it mother or father, or even god, or life, leave and come to Rama. This is the message of this episode. I am salty. Difficult to trust Datta. What to do…
Jaya Guru Datta !
