So with this ritual of prāṇapratiṣṭhā, all the Gods and Goddesses of Kailāsa from Gaṇapati to Nandi, Paramaśiva, Paramaśivaśakti, all… are manifesting in Kailāsa. And,… My blessings to everyone… involved with Kailāsa Toronto. Once again I thanked all the Śivācāryas who came, conducting all the kriyās, rituals for Kumbhābhiṣekam. So not only Subrahmaṇya, even the Mūla Mūrti, main Śivaliṅga, Paramaśiva Liṅga also is installed today, and prāṇapratiṣṭhā is done. And, all the deities, the pūrṇa prāṇapratiṣṭhā happens. So I thanked Śrī Ranganatha Gurukkal, Śrī Shivananda Sharma, Śrī Raghavan Gurukkal for coming and doing all the kriyās, rituals and Kumbhābhiṣekam. I bless all devotees who are involved in making this temple, and all those who come for worship. My blessings.

Just few days before, we started the Cāturmāsya vrata. Some of you should know… many of our devotees may be already aware but some new. Some of you who are new, I want to tell you, Cāturmāsya is a 4 month vrata, is done in Vedic tradition. Some people try to tell that in Śaiva sampradāya Cāturmāsya is not done, no\! That’s not true. In original… Madurai Aadheenam Śyāmalapīṭha Sarvajñapīṭha Paddhati, and the Śaiva Sannyāsa Paddhati, earliest Śaiva Sannyāsa Paddhati written… by the Madurai Aadheenam Sannidhānams — both insist Śaivites also do Cāturmāsya vrata. Śaivites also have a Cāturmāsya vrata. So, on Guru Pūrṇimā Day, we started the Cāturmāsya vratam. In Śaiva tradition also, Śrīkaṇṭhaśivācārya has written Brahmasūtrabhāṣyam. Āgama para means, based on the Āgama establishing Śivaparatva (the supremacy of Paramaśiva). Śrīkaṇṭhaśivācārya has written Brahmasūtrabhāṣyam. That Śrīkaṇṭhaśivācārya was one of the… Guru Mahāsannidhānams, Pīṭhādhipati of Śyāmalapīṭha Sarvajñapīṭham. Because, he has written the commentary on Vyāsasūtras, Brahmasūtras, establishing the supremacy of Paramaśiva. Āgama para bhāṣyam — quoting the Āgamas. Based on the Āgamas establishing the supremacy of Paramaśiva through the Brahmasūtras. So, Śaivites also observe Cāturmāsya.

\[00:14:48\]

On Guru Pūrṇimā Day, we started the Cāturmāsya ritualistically. Let all the devotees all over the world… start the Cāturmāsya activities from today. I will list 5 activity as Cāturmāsya activity. One, spend more and more time in you reading the scriptures and sharing the scriptures. I have written elaborate commentary on… Upaniṣad, Brahmasūtras and Bhagavad Gītā. Spend time on reading that 3 books, and share it with everyone freely. Share it with everyone freely. In Hindu tradition, we use 2 words — mādhukarī bhikṣā, uñchavṛtti. Uñchavṛtti and mādhukarī bhikṣā is not begging, ordinary begging. They go and give śāstrajñāna. They give spiritual knowledge, and receive sambhāvana or something in return. In uñchavṛtti and mādhukarī bhikṣā, it is not that they get food just for themself, no\! All those who do uñchavṛtti and mādhukarī bhikṣā, those Ācāryas, Gurus,... they get whatever they get and bring it and… make their Gurukul… enjoy the whole thing. So all of you take up this vrata. We already printed Bhagavad Gītā in lakhs, hundreds of thousands of copies and distributed to all our centres. You can take as many copies as you want freely,... free of cost. And everyday, go and meet at least 11 people. Surely you all can meet 11 people in your life. Just give them. Just give them. Give and ask them, “Please read.” After 2-3 days, do a follow-up. “Did you read? If you have any doubts, ask me. I’ll try to help. If I can’t clarify, I’ll take it to my Mahānt. If my Mahānt also can’t under… can’t answer then we will write it to Svāmiji, He will answer in the satsaṅg.” Share Bhagavad Gītā book. In all our Aadheenams, we are filled. And if you have taken and used everything, please inform. We will print more and circulate. Let’s make a vow in this Cāturmāsya — “we will distribute at least 10 million Bhagavad Gītā copies.” Spread the śāstra.

\[00:18:07\]

Understand, scriptures are like Utsava Mūrti; they go and sit in the people’s bedroom and bring them to temple. They are like Utsava Mūrti. They go to the people’s place and bring them… to God, connect them with Paramaśiva. So the first instruction: spread the scriptures as much as you can.

Second: try to go to… every possible social media platform. Not just Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, every social media platform available. Try to go whenever you are free, you can get time, try to spread through the social media also. Start building your own small community; share books. We have all our books digitally available. You can download and freely send it to them. Not just sending a link. After 2-3 days, following up. “Did you read? Do you have any question? Shall I send you some other book?” Ask their problems. Send the book which has a solution for them. Share all our social media pages where spiritual solutions are available for every problem. Try to enrich every person individually, and try to enrich as many people as possible through social media.

Third important thing: get as many people as possible to come and attend MahaParamaśivoham. This Cāturmāsya, full Cāturmāsya, MahaParamaśivoham program is free of cost. The program which costs 21,000 dollar is completely free for the whole Cāturmāsya — from Guru Pūrṇimā to Vijayadaśamī, whole all 4 months. In Śaiva sampradāya, Cāturmāsya it done, is done 4 months, not 4 pakṣa. In some of the small dha… maṭhas, like Kāñcī Maṭham and all — they follow 4 pakṣa. Means 4 15 days, 2 months Cāturmāsya. But in Śaivite sampradāya, it’s 4 months — from Guru Pūrṇimā to Navarātri. So… these 4 months, we will give… Paramaśivoham completely free — free of cost. Enrich, enrol, reach out to as many people as possible, and get them to attend MahaParamaśivoham.

Fourth instruction: understand, only by you teaching, you yourself achieve complete realization. In Sanskṛt, there is a beautiful proverb. When you hear from the Guru, you get 25%. When you question and clarify your doubts, you get that second 25%. When you do the jīvartha sadas (discuss) among the students, you get that third 75… third 25%. Only when you start teaching others, you get the fourth 25%. So to have that complete knowledge,... start teaching, start sharing. When you start teaching and talking, you will learn completely and intensely. So Vijayadaśamī is 24th October. Till 24th October, MahaParamaśivoham is free.

So fifth instruction: as much as possible do jīvartha sadas and follows spiritual routine, like morning yoga, pūjā sincerely in this Cāturmāsya.

\[00:23:20\]

So 5 instructions; first,... go to every possible places and persons — give Bhagavad Gītā,… and form… the ecosystem where people read. You support them. You inspire them. Second,... in social media platform, every possible way spread the scriptures. Third,... start… teaching as much as possible. Fourth,... do… jīvartha sadas, vākyārtha sadas. And fifth, you yourself start practicing. Every morning, brāhma muhūrtam yoga, pūjā, all that intensely. Let’s focus on these 5 points for the next 4 months, and important point is enrich and enrol as many people as possible for MahaParamaśivoham. For these 4 months, I am making the whole MahaParamaśivoham program completely free of cost. The program which will cost 21,000 dollar will be free for everyone till 24th October 2023\.

So I’ll summarized again. Share Bhagavad Gītā or any of My scriptural books… by reaching out to people. Second, you can download My digital books and share it in social media platform. Third, enrich and enrol as many people as possible for MahaParamaśivoham program free of cost. Fourth, do jīvartha sadas, vākyārtha sadas. Fifth, start teaching and also practicing yoga, puja, all these. So,... let us start Cāturmāsya.

\[00:26:20\]

Last 2 years, we were not actively working due to Corona, pandemic reasons. Now with the grace of Paramaśiva, we are all free. Let us start actively… spreading spiritual knowledge. Let’s enrich everyone. I tell you, enriching is the best way for you to go on empowering yourself. So with this, \[I — inaudible\] bless you all; actually we will be continue to have many satsaṅgs regularly now, and classes as part of Cāturmāsya.

So with this, I bless you all. Let’s all radiate, live… with Integrity, Authenticity, Responsibility, Enriching, Causing, living Śuddhādvaita Śaivam, Paramādvaitam, the State, Space, Powers, Being, Superconsciousness and Kailāsa, MahāKailāsa of Paramaśiva, Paramaśivoham, Oṃ Nityānanda Paramaśivoham, The Eternal Bliss, Nityānanda. Thank you. Be blissful.
