Loka Samastha Ananda Bhavantu

Divine Spiritual Experiences

Devesh

                                                                                    

At the age of 15 I started learning how to chant Vedanta and sing Bhajans from Sri Bimal Pandey. He started to explain to me in utmost detail about the teachings and life story of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Our Divine Father.
He then taught me and guided me towards the Truth that both Mother and Father are on this earth. Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba and Bhagavathi Sri Srimad Sai Rajarajeshwari.
Below are my experiences with the Divine Mother and Father and Sri Bimal Pandey.



August 2005
My first experience
With the guidance of Sri Bimal, I was guided into the astral levels in meditation.
I closed my eyes and slowly felt myself starting to rise above my body. I could see myself passing the sky, stars and the planets and then entering a blue realm. I stood up and I could see a white sheet, on this sheet was written DIVINE. (glowing) I walked into the sheet and I was transported into a room. I walked up 3 steps which were in front of me and through a large door. As I opened the large door I walked into a white room and in the distance I saw a man sitting on a throne. He was wearing a white robe and had black hair. I asked many questions in which I received answers and then offered my pranams to this Divine soul and slowly descended back into my body.

Second experience
Again with the guidance of Sri Bimal I went up in meditation. However this time Bimal told me to centre myself in the middle of my chest and see myself sitting on a lotus flower. I then started chanting the Gayatri Mantra, in which I felt a strong power rising and expanding from within me. I then started rising up above my body and past the sky, stars and planets.
I stood up and again I saw the white sheet, however this time written on there was the name PREMA. I walked into the sheet, up the stairs and through the door. I appeared inside a huge white room and I saw a man sitting on a throne. Again I asked many questions. One of the questions was: “who are you” in which he replied “Peter”.
He was bald and had a long white beard.
Afterwards I offered my pranams and slowly came back into my body. When I went home that day I went into the temple downstairs. I noticed a picture in which I hadn’t seen before. It was a picture which Sathya Sai Baba had materialised. Sri Bimal had given to my family and in this picture were Jesus and the apostles (Peter and John). As I looked carefully at peter I was shocked, as I realised it was the exact same person I saw in my experience in meditation. The face was the exact same to every small detail.

September 2005
My first real experience of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba was on Diwali. I woke up that morning and I saw Sathya Sai Baba in front of me and he was moving his head. It then felt as if I could hear the bhajan “Prema Muditha”, in which swami raised his hand and started moving it around and around.




6th November 2005

At the age of 15 I was going through many difficulties and problems. However when I met Sri Bimal Pandey my life changed completely. I started experiencing Sathya Sai Baba and I was always happy. I felt loved constantly.
One day after school I was on the computer doing my homework. All of a sudden a thought crossed my head, whether Swami could see me wherever I was.
Then I closed my eyes and out of nowhere Swami appeared in front of me with the back of his head facing me. As I carefully looked I could see an eye within his afro.
Later that day after asking Sri Bimal what the dream meant, I was told that                                    SWAMI IS ALWAYS WATCHING ME.


12th November 2005

Discourse given to my by Sri Bimal Pandey

Imagine a glass of water
God, Sathya Sai Baba is the water
And the refreshment is Goddess, Rajarajeshwari
When we try and drink this water we can’t because it is contaminated.
Why? Because we have contaminated it with our thoughts and actions.
Only when we change ourselves and realise about the True Divinity can we drink the water and experience the true refreshment.

Experience is very important

Salt and Sugar
They look the same however they taste different
Only by taste and experience can one differentiate between the both.

Sathya Sai Baba is the witness and Sri Srimad Sai Rajarajeshwari (Amma) is the movement. Sai is the creator and Amma is the creation.



26th November
Sri Bimal came to see myself and my family at my home. He would come and share discourses and teachings about the Divine universal Father and Mother.
While he was sitting there, I saw Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba sitting there right next to him on his throne. He was sitting next to Bimal.

14th January
During Bhajans i recieved darshan of Sri Srimad Sai Rajarajeshwari sitting on the chair with a garland around her neck. There was one chair and Sathya Sai Baba's pictures behind it. However Sri Bimal had recently gave me many discourses on Amma and how her and Swami are one. " Amma Sai Ekha Hai", Sri Bimal Pandey. So they sit on the same chair as they are Shiv-Shakti.

Sri Bimal Pandey taught me huge amounts of knowledge on all levels of spirituality. However one main thing i learnt was to learn from my mistakes. I made many mistakes and still do and mainly because i never used to listen properly or i wouldn't think before i did things. However i was very fortunate that i had Swami, Amma and Bimal to teach me and put back on to the right path. Sri Bimal always said to me that

 "5 minutes of embarassment is better than a life times mistake"

This Divine quote alone saved me a numerous amount of times and each time i something different from my mistakes.


Significance of the Divine Mantra

“Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu”



From the first Day I met Sri Bimal, he always told me to chant “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu”. His main emphasis was always on here as well as Bhagavan Baba’s other teachings.

In my life I have made huge mistakes which have caused problems only for me. So Sri Bimal advised me to ask Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba (Swami) in meditation what to do and how I can help myself. Anyway swami told me to chant “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu”.
The purpose of this was to ask forgiveness to Swami for everything I have done wrong so that I can start fresh in my life, which is what we all are trying to do.
Anyway after a day of chanting this Mantra, I went up in meditation to offer it at Swami’s lotus feet.
When I offered it there was this vortex in front of me, in which swami took me through. Then all off a sudden there was electric blue lightening everywhere and there was this beautiful scenery with mountains covered in trees and waterfalls. All that could be seen was this lush green from the trees and this electric blue from the fresh waterfalls.
Then I landed on the floor and in front of me Swami sat with a snake around his neck. Then he spoke to me and said “In front of you is Sri Ayyapans temple”.
In front of me was this beautiful temple with 1 light high above which shone for miles.
Swami then said “We are cleaning you; I love you and Ishka and don’t STOP your chanting”.
Anyway during this time I was looking for a job and going through a few other problems in my life. Within three days of chanting “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu” I received a job and all my problems cleared up.
Each and every time I chanted  “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu” Swami would come and sit in front of me and give me his divine darshan.

After about a week I started feeling this energy inside of me which I could call some sort of bliss. This feeling would make me so happy and all I wanted was to chant “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu”.
I started realizing the importance of this mantra and how it can benefit every single living thing in this world. Also how it not only has an impact on my life but how it impacts the whole world.

This discourse was given to me by Sri Bimal Pandey many of times. However due to my own EGO I never listened. Instead I wanted to chant Vedantha and many other prayers.
Sri Bimal always taught that Vedantha is very important and yes is very beneficial; however it goes to the deity’s and other gods. However if you want to please the almighty then chant “Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu” as this is the ONLY prayer which goes DIRECT to BHAGAVAN SRI SATHYA SAI BABA.

I truly wish that I had listened to Sri Bimal then instead of now. However I can be grateful that I have realized now than never.
It doesn’t matter how many you chant as long as the intensity is there. Sri Bimal and Swami always emphasize on this.

Huvan on Baba’s Birthday

On the 23rd of November Sri Bimal Pandey told me to perform a Huvan. He said he would guide and protect me as I performed this huvan so I said that I would do the huvan after my studies.
Both Sri Bimal Pandey and Sathya Sai Baba told me that my studies must come first and that it is crucial that I receive the best grade possible. So with this in mind I thought I would finish my studies first then perform the huvan in the evening.
Sri Bimal had taught me everything, from the prayers down to every ingredient which goes inside the huvan and the reason they are used. Before starting my Huvan I had set up two chairs and placed flowers on the floor beneath and on the chairs. One chair was for Sri Sathya Sai Baba, My lord and the other chair for Sri Swami Sai Ayyapa, my Guru.
So I started chanting and performing the huvan. Near to the end the huvan transformed into Bhagavan Baba and he was wearing a green coloured robe. At the same time a blue/green electric ball of light came from Sri Ayyapan’s murti and picture. Once I finished the Huvan I took it up and offered it to Sri Sathya Sai Baba. He said to me, “We accept”.
As he said this the huvan exploded and the flames disappeared and as I looked up I saw the sky filled with the smoke from the huvan. I started to worry as I thought someone would complain as the smoke spread quickly throughout the sky.
So I closed my eyes and went back up to see Baba and he said to me,
“Well done, Good boy. Myself and my message was in the smoke, you have spread this throughout this half of London. You have protected London, I bless you.”
After offering my pranams I came back down and the joy which filled every cell in my body was indescribable. So I rang Sri Bimal and he told me that I had protected the whole of London and that I had manifested Baba inside the huvan .He then blessed me and told me to carry on and never give up.

So the following morning I woke up and went outside to see the huvan. (During the huvan I had offered a coconut to Bhagavan Baba and Sri Ayyapa) I picked up the coconut and it broke in two. As I looked to my surprise Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s form had appeared inside the coconut.
