Speech of HH Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji – after discourse – February 9, 2015 – Mysore

It is not child’s play to complete 130 crore or 1.3 billion repetitions of Hanuman Chalisa in one year. 40 repetitions by one individual in one day is like one particle of vibhooti dust only. It is not significant. Don’t become complacent and satisfied that you have done your quota for the day and waste the rest of the time. It is not at all sufficient. I am expecting 100,000 repetitions from some of you or even ten times that by the end of the year.

I will grant the spiritual merit of one Hanuman Chalisa repetition to each citizen of India regardless of their nature and devotion, to grant them a higher birth next time. I wish that they are all born as noble souls because of the merit earned by the power of this prayer gifted to them.

For those of you who are unable to read or pronounce the prayer, listening attentively without speaking to others directly or over the phone while the recording is going on, and not being distracted by other things, will also count as one repetition. Sit down and listen with concentration. Note down your count and send it with your name, date, count (minimum 40), photograph and location to: sgshanumanchalisa@gmail.com

Take a vow, and pledge that for one year you will not see any movies. I will not forgive you if you watch cinemas and waste time on movies and shows.

Keep your individual count separately, apart from group counts, and give me at the end of the year. I will give a hug if you meet my target, my expectation.

I wanted to announce this at Sivaratri. But I am giving you a heads up. Accept it as a challenge. Swamiji is determined to reach his goal. He will not leave it until the goal is accomplished. I don’t plan. But if planned, I do not stop until I accomplish.

Feb 16, 2015 is Healing Music Concert at Rajendra Kala Mantapa in Mysore. Shuka Brahma Raga Sagara. Please attend with all friends and relatives. Spread the word.
