“Everything is in God’s hands, and you are His tool to be used by Him as He pleases. Try to grasp the significance of ‘all is His’, and you will immediately feel free from all burdens. What will be the result of your surrender to Him? None will seem alien, all will be your very own, your Self.” -Sri Anandamayi Ma
I'm not Hindu. I have no idea why but, I'm drawn to her and her teachings. I discovered english translations of her teachings by accident and I find them profoundly beautiful and I listen to them almost every day.
“Father, there is little to tell. My consciousness has never associated itself with this temporary body. Before I came to this earth, Father, I was the same. I grew into womanhood, but still, I was the same. When the family in which I had been born made arrangements to have this body married, I was the same. And, Father, in front of you now, I am the same. Even afterwards, though the dance of creation changes around me in the hall of eternity, I shall be the same.”
I feel very blessed and fortunate to have been endowed ‘diksha’ by Ma in 1973 when I was nine. My guru, my Ma has been with me in every step of my life till this day.
Can you explain at all what the experience was like?? I have heard Sadhguru talk about how his guru touched him, not with a hand / finger / etc but with a stick! and from then on, according to what i have heard and read from Sadhguru - his life and/or his life's goals were not his own ^_^ Thank you in advance - if you are able to take the time to try to answer my question(s) I hope this finds you and your friends and family (and also + anyone else reading this for that matter!) doing exceedingly well and staying healthy! thank you for your time! Take Care... Warm Regards, azsetik (may.gun / Meg.T.)
@@azsetik9907 Namastey 🙏. It's so good to know that someone somewhere wants to know about my experiences of being so close to Ma and I'll happily share those moments with everybody who wants to know. I still remember the day of my 'diksha'. It was on the 22 of June 1973. I was 9. I entered a big room that smelled of sandlewood and incense. Ma was sitting on the floor in the centre and asked me to come and sit in front of her. I went near her and stood there with my 'asana' tucked under my arm not knowing what to do. She took my asana from me and very lovingly spread it on the floor in front of her and asked me to sit on it. As I sat, she asked me whom would I like to pray to and whispered a mantra asking me to repeat. After I did that she put her hand on the top of my head and gently pushed it down to rest on her feet. My diksha was complete. I was too young to understand or perceive the significance of that event back then. My grandmother asked her for a pair of her used sandals. Ma obliged. My grandmother kept those sandals in her cupboard with great care. When I got married she passed them on to me. I have had Ma's used sandals in my prayer room since the past 30 years. In all these years ( probably 50 or more), the sandals don't look worn out or withered. The colour has darkened a little, but they are still a strong pair of footwear! Strange.. as any piece of cloth or paper would show signs of aging. And since the past 30 years , I have cleaned those sandals, lay my head on them and even shed tears on them during my times of distress. Everytime Ma has offered me solace, peace and a way out of my puzzled, problem life. Everytime I touch those sandles, I remember Ma's touch on my head and my head bowing to touch her feet. It fills me with strength, courage, peace, solace and everything positive that sees me through all the blows that life keeps hurling from time to time. Ma is the supreme energy within me that has helped me brave many storms, fight raging seas and shaped me to the person I am today, strong, confident, compassionate and brave. That is the power of my Guru. This was a bit too long and thank you for your time and patience. May you always be blessed.
Thank you for this. Sri Anandamayi Ma is new to me; I just discovered this video today. I'm 63, and when I think of my life, I realize that I've always felt similarly to her, but never fit in with those "of the world". This makes me feel peace in my heart.
@@lionlight777 That is such an unintelligent and perverted perception of the vastness of Indian Spirituality, that teaches universality, acceptance and love for all. Just for sake of saying one would quote Paganism and Idol worship to defame the practices of a country where literally spirituality, culture, literature and art originated not 100s but 10s of thousand years of years ago. The universality of message in world's oldest religious book the Rig Veda and the popularity of Bhagvad Gita all over the world says it all. The great minds like Carl Sagan, Max Muller, Robert Oppenheimer did see something valuable in there that you do not see it.. what a shame !!!
@@rpsingh457 Bhavadgita is a mythic scripture and maybe followed to imbibe good values.. but not fake godmen and god women claiming they have higher powers
@@mitaliprabhu5252 not everyone is fake godman or godwoman. The essence of religion is to manifest divinity within youself. The likes of Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, Ramananmaharshi, Adi Sankara are many in Indian history and there are many in India even right now. If someone is a true seeker he or she will identify the enlightened beings.
I had a vision once when under intense stress and crying out to God for help internally. I felt soon after like I was talking with God, as in the ultimate creator of everything. 2 things that seem important and worth sharing was how we all have different stories and just generally an understanding of allowing people to be as they are. It was explained that "they"(not completely understood..Gods/angels/higher entities/different aspects of God) were learning to build bridges. This filled me with absolute awe and excitement. I kept repeating..really, oh how beautiful, oh how wonderful. Really .. I'm so happy you are building bridges.. After awhile i was told that i was a bridge builder. In my head at that time, this idea of building bridges meant that the different world religions, which i mostly thought of as Eastern and Western religions/philosophies would one day come together in union, the gap would be bridged. I am often turned off by how many evangelical christians that i regularly interact with see their way as the only way and they dismiss all others as being misguided. I do not know much about Hinduism as it seems to have a million different thoughts, but that in itself makes sense. I do not know the ultimate answers but i do have a feeling we really are all one. I think actions are what matter and the idea of being God centered instead of self centered is worthy of striving towards, no matter your story/path. I pray for all of us.
Whenever I see the photograph of the mother i always feel ecstasy and such peace which can't be explained and her eyes just shower bliss and love to all
When I started my spiritual awakening, one of the things I started to do is drawing and painting. I draw this woman with my eyes closed. I never heard of her before. Never seen her in my life, however the drawing resemblance her face perfectly.why?
She was hiding somewhere in your soul your art brought her to the surface of your conscious mind. That's why art is a kind of worship/ meditation... so we believe in India.
Well I've heard that spirit never dies. Life and Death is analogous to a person driving a car for some years, the car is lifeless, it's the person whose driving it actually operates it...he needs to feed the car with fuel...but then in period of time it wears off... and then user discards the older machine and gets into a new car...a new beginning... You probably have met her in some other timeline... God is greatest illusionist... his spell makes us forget our past...but sometimes some things manifest out of the blue...
They used to say the same about A.He Tler, David Koresh,Jim Jones... from time to time a "enlightened" poor indian pops up,a herd of desperate poor indians and hipocrite white burgois follows him or her,and fills his or her's pickets with money,so they can purchase a seat in heaven.
From Man-centredness to God-centredness, I have never heard put so directly. I have often said we must return to religion and seek the advice of saints, rather than psychological treatment… but God centeredness, that is so absolutely unmistakable as the point. We are sick because we think of how we may please ourselves rather than God. The minute we extend ourselves and try to endeavor to please God we smack into the intense smallness, frailty and helplessness of being human, our limitedness causes to fail at that endeavor immediately and as soon as our pride breaks us we fall to pieces. From that spot we seek forgiveness for what we imagine to be our great accumulation of sin, then and only then do we see that all God wishes is for us to open to infinite love and to share the love we receive with others, in other words God love for us is boundless and his only standard is to love ourselves as he loves us. He shows us that we are complete and in that we need do nothing but recognize that our nature has always been perfect and we have strived so hard under shame and fear to be worthy of father and mother love and acceptance when we are inherently worthy. In that space of eternal worthiness is the fullness of meaning and contentment with outer and inner. When we rest content in boundless meaning ever unfolding worthiness outside and inside like an ever flowing water fall of pure beauty. That is when bliss is met face to face, bliss arises as the truth and meaning of everything when everything is appreciated In it’s essence as the infinite stainless space of primordial purity. We can’t ever know it until we give ourselves to Gods single commandment, love self and other, care for my children. Until we make God the center of life we will default to personal happiness at the center of life and because that happiness is personal and relative to the body. Our methods can never know transcendence and our definition of happiness can never transcend individual and personal material forms. Good and Evil arise from knowledge of self devoid of God’s infinite acceptance and existence of and as everything. We see everything in terms of our own personal notion of what is good and bad and so carve up the world into friend and enemy, good and bad. So instead of a religious life where good is to forgive and love, we live in politics where good is what aligns with our values and personal beliefs. We mistake the errors of our time as eternal, we see everyone as being stuck in the moment we occupy. We don’t ever see how the one who harms or the harm itself being a cause and inspiration for acts of healing and forgiveness. We see the Devils of this world as only needless causes of suffering rather than the essential partners of their opposites. If nobody was hurting compassion could not arrive, if there were no errors, forgiveness could not arise. If their were no poor than generosity could not arise. When we see everything as having equal value both good and bad being in their rightful place, as harm being the soil from which healing grows. When we see the completeness and essential nature of everything as being wholly necessary to drive beings to virtue, then and only then will we be at peace. And only from peace can bliss arise as a permanent fixture of our life. Until that day there will be only enemies. Even is we drive enemies away our mindset will look for new ones because we in our inner life have no cause for bliss until we know the entirety as primordial pure creation of God. We will seek disagreements simply so we can feel correct, righteous and intelligent. We will scold people so we can feel wise and knowing. We will be angry so we can feel we are on the side of the good. But if we believed and knew all was good and good was all there is, then everything is on the way to holiness, step by step it is all a pilgrimage, no matter how evil a manifestation is in the moment, if we trust in God’s plan to engineer every soul into sainthood through the poetry of circumstance, we will still rest at ease in our heart, even if we are heartbroken and full of negativity if we have seen God’s bliss and trust it is always there, if we know the great Guru is the ground of being and trust in the enlightened intent of creation then we will always have that golden thread pulling us slowly through the darkness and uncertainty. Because our troubles are just part of the play of the divine, our happiness is temporary but Gods love is the center of our lives. We had already made the decision to live a God centered life and so if we must suffer in his service then their is no meaningless suffering, all our hardships are boundless in their meaning because they are in service of the meaning of meaning, beauty of beauty, and love of love in God. That is the small window where fleshy human beings can view the ever radiant transcendent joy of bliss that is knowledge of God’s boundless love for us. May we all find that and wield that truth as a light and torch to guide and help self and other in the darkness that is incarnation. Sarwa Mangalam
I've never heard of Anandamayi Ma, but by the end of this video, I have tears in my eyes because I feel the Divine Mother in her. It's not even *in* her, it IS her! I hope to visit her Ashram and burial site one day. I consider myself a Christian, but she is right in that the point of all religion is to Self-realize.
this work and Ma ... not knowing anything about her, she made me cry tears of joy ... so thankful, goosebumps and relief ... the understood and shares this legacy with all of us. Thank you so much.
You should consider a pilgrimage to her samadhi shrine. If you do decide to do so. Follow these instructions. Take an austerity for a determined period of time. For example. 1) Give alcohol and sex and meat for 90 days. 2) Take it upon yourself, without anyone's support, to make some heartfelt prayer, at the same time, once, twice, or three times a day, every day from when you begin your austerities through your pilgrimage to India and until after your return to the USA. 3) Ask for her blessing in some matter important to you. Ask her, or ask God, or ask both as they are one and the same. Tell no one of this. Remember God with form is the Guru, God without form is the nameless formless infinite light. Have faith in your practice, and in your intention. Tell no one of your spiritual practices until after you have completed them for any length of time, and even then speak of them without pride. Modestly. Humility leads to wisdom. Good luck. (Yes, I followed my own advice in April of 1980. I met my Guru the following month. He took Mahasamadhi the same year as Ma, in 1982. It was a busy year.) Peace.
@@BlackHermit Certainly, but only you have the ability to find your points to solve and transcend. Books, teachers, meditation and other spiritual practices will help you on your way.
When she moved to Dhaka , poet kabi Najrul Isam wrote a poem for her. The poem called ''Maa anondomoyir agomone"'and the British government had him imprisoned for this.
Lovely summing up of the life and times of Ma Ananda Mayee. 'Bizarre' in my view has a tinge of Chauvinism. In fitness of of Her devoted spiritual life, the title of the video should be restated as " The Enlightened life of Ma Ananda Mayee".
In my family everyone is devoted to Ma Anandamai. Her teaching is wonderful. We had many books of her full of her teaching. She is wonderful. Thanks for the video sir. 🙏🙏🙏
I was a very similar child. People said the same thing about me. I had the same experiences, but no one believed me. I lived in an aggressive house. I hid these aspects of myself because I was being ridiculed. Now I see I was right to be gentle and blissful. Thank you ma. Now the good work can begin.
Cried almost all the way through.. I feel Here Here Now... The Most High 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🕉 Still crying, and I am not " a crier ", ordinarily. Only the Truth can cause these emotions, this flow of energy to flow through the body and mind. I bow to you Mother, again and again 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐
Thank you so much 🙏 I was barely twenty when she would have attained Samadhi. But, I have been blessed by the presence of one of her few sanyasi disciples Ma Krishnanandgiri (who had chosen to live in the Himalayas) in my life, and this video resonates so much with the source of everything I have hopefully imbibed from the presence of my Ma. It feels like Ma Anandamayi thus brought her presence to my life. May Ma bless us all 🙏🙏
You're doing a great job by spreading spirituality related videos & therefore inspiring peoples to be initiated to the path of spirituality and realization. You're blessed by the source of creation so as everyone who are here to see these messages. *Whoever reading this right now I love you same as me because you're not seperate from me you are me and I am you and we're everything*🙏💓
My father attended her last procession in dehradun in 1982,as we were living there and used to revere her,being out of town he happened to encounter her procession and was overwhelmed that he could pay his homage to Maa.Such is the working of a divine soul.
Thanks for this video! Feel rejuvenated, proud, overjoyed that such Spiritual leaders like her and many others were born to enlighten us with their ways. The more the world turns tumultuous, the more their guidance is just right there for us to grasp and proceed...🙏
Very nice you included Sri yoganda’s comments, and anyone interested in Ma should read his amazing autobiography. He himself was an enlightened master and his book is an important and also entertaining spiritual classic. He also describes meeting Gandhi and other spiritual giants. Thank you Ma for coming here to remind us about what is real, it is so easy to forget.
Wrong Gandhi was not a spiritual giant. Sri Aurobindo was a spiritual giant. Do your research. Google Sri Aurobindo on Gandhi. Find out what Anandamoyee Maa once expressed how she while in Bhimtaal in her subtle body met Sri Aurobindo on another plane. Gandhi and his failed policy of muslim appeasement and open support of khilaphat movement set the stage for bloody partition of India. Sri Aurobindo was India's most sagacious leader and a spiritual giant. Read what he wrote about how crazy MK Gandhi was. Gandhi was portrayed as a great man by the Nehrus and the Gandhis (muslims with hindu names as Natwar Singh revealed in his memoire) and hara... marxist liberals who distorted indian history in history books that we were taught in history classes. Gandhi was the most deceptive leader that most leader did not know how crazy he was. Only Sri Aurobindo and Dr Ambedkar knew about Gandhi.
The greatness of Sri Aurobindo was that he was not only a spiritual giant but the savvyest of all leaders in politics. He was the only leader who knew and wrote about how super crazy MK Gandhi was. Dr Ambedkar also knew Gandhi was not a mahatma. Paramahansa Yogananda like Tagore and other great men was never in politics so he did not know like Sri Aurobindo knew that Gandhi was a super crazy leader.
@@dnag02 That's pretty interesting. I read Aurobindo on Gandhi as you suggested, and the Wikipedia article on Aurobindo, so I'm no expert. I know very little about how the events transpired in those decades leading to Indian Independence, I admit my ignorance of the details, and I might be inspired to learn more. Also my comment was about Yogananda. However I think more importantly it seems to me in our conversation we would need to come to some definition of terms in order to proceed, and that in itself may prove impossible. The key term is "spiritual giant." What do you mean by that? What makes someone a spiritual giant? Clearly it can't be evaluated on how successful that person was in tangible 3-D material world terms. Or can it? For example Jesus, was he a "spiritual giant"? He certainly was a failure in terms of what he achieved e.g. politically in his lifetime. You could also say he "laid the groundwork" for the Crusades, which led to so many unnecessary death (?). I think we can say neither Aurobindo nor Gandhi are at the level of Nityananda of Ganesh Puri, or Gautama Buddha. Those two had very little to say about contemporary earthly matters at all. On the other hand I believe both Gandhi and Aurobindo were more spiritual giants than I am. Meanwhile I am "giant" compared to some people living on this planet at this time. From what I've understood so far, Aurobindo's main criticism of Gandhi was ultimately how effective it is. Do you reason with the snake or the scorpion, or do you kill them? Today we still have that question vexing us mightily. The Kshatriya class never did expunge evil in this world, so I'm not sure how effective that approach has been either, maybe time will still tell in the months and years to come. As a final question though I'll ask whether you've done your research as well - have you personally read Gandhi's autobiography Experiments With Truth? Or have you formed your conclusion merely on the basis of what others have said about Gandhi? In other words, what do you think about that book, what specific points might you make about it that are really your own thinking? Cheers,
@@dnag02 I can't seem to reply to your latest post directly under that post so I'll reply here. You are asking me questions but you didn't answer my questions, which were and are fair questions absolutely germane to a respectful exchange of views for a conversation like ours. Your further questions here lead me to believe however you are more thinking of our exchange as debate, which I'm not interested in frankly. I've taken your point, which as I said is interesting. Your cup however seems to be already full to the brim as the Zen saying goes, so I'll only wish you a good day.
@@teach-learn4078 "I think we can say neither Aurobindo nor Gandhi are at the level of Nityananda of Ganesh Puri" - I think you do not know enough to make that statement. Let me ask you what truth do you think MK Gandhi found and expressed in his book. Gandhi was a shrewd politician who never did any spiritual sadhana but he used to act and talk like he was a saint. The reason I would not read that book is because I like many believe that he is the man singularly responsible for how India experienced a bloody partition and India's many subsequent huge issues. Just so you are aware, Gandhi made attempts twice to meet with Sri Aurobindo in Pondicherry after Sri Aurobindo attained yoga siddhi and Sri Aurobindo declined both times to meet with Gandhi. May I know what other books on Indian spirituality did you read other than the book that Gandhi wrote? You mention Nityananda of Ganeshpuri or Lord Buddha but you did not mention the names of the famous ones like Ramana Maharishi, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo, Paramahansa Yogananda and his lineage of great Gurus, Swami Sivananda of Rishikesh, Sai Baba, Anandamoyee Maa and many others. You seem to know very little about India's spiritual traditions.
Thank you for this video, it's beautifully presented and a wonderful story on the life of an extremely rare and remarkable being, and I've enjoyed watching it immensely, am deeply, reverently moved and grateful. Thank you again and God Bless 🙋♀️🎶🙏🏻💖💖
Looking at some of the comments here , I am from the school of thought that 'if you don't have anything positive to say , then don't bother'. There's enough negativity in the world without the need to add to it. Instead I wish everyone love , peace, tolerance & happiness, especially to our perceived enemies. I prefer to think - there are no problems , only solutions 🙏💕🙏
A highly illumined soul was Ma Anandmoi. Her meeting with Paramhansa Yogananda in 1935 was very interesting as described in the world famous book " An Autobiography of a Yogi" written by Paramhansa Yogananda himself. Both of them being highly illumined souls.
1.25 Even though a picture it seems as if Anandamayi Ma embraces the soul with her gentle, loving smile. I wish I could have met her. Thank you so much for sharing, thank you
I love this channel. You do the subject matter justice without any hyperbole. The artwork is wonderful. You have a great wealth of material to draw upon. We hope to see many more videos from this satsang. Don't change a thing. Thank you for your seva. Peace.
This Is My First Introduction To Anandamayi Ma. Enjoyed It Very Much. I Have Been A Follower Of Sri Satya Si Baba For Many Years Which Enhanced My Life And Helped Me Very Much. Now I Will Endeavour To Learn More About This Special Being. Thankyou. ❤
Beautiful! My ex spent a lot of time in Ma's darshan at her ashram, so I have heard stories from him but I didn't know a lot of this. Thank you for sharing!
I think it is very important that children of our country should be taught about the teachings of her and other Gurus. This is a legacy which we possess but its sad are not aware.
This is a beautiful story and life of Saint - not a Bizarre one. Please use the right adjective that shows veneration for such an elevated being to walk amidst us. She was revered as the highest by the all accomplished Gurus of that time!
True but the only problem is most of us do not know if there is something called a soul. I have never experienced what we call soul. If I die without finding my soul in this life, that will be the greatest tragedy in my life.
Beautifully made video. It had been showing in my feed for a week, but I was hesitant because of the 'bizarre' in the title. After watching it, I feel like "the blissful life" might be a more suitable choice. I appreciate the wonderful efforts. Namaste.
I was attracted to her eyes and would stare into her eyes every night. One day ,I spoke to her and said , " Ma I want to go in search of spirituality but I cannot leave my home and live in a cave or in the Himalayas. I got an instant answer within as I looked into her eyes." You need not go anywhere . If you are desperate the answers will come to you at home ." .. and it sure did by the grace of many teachers. I did go seeking to many places too.
@@abhishekghosh4384 but why will the people who have learned such powerful meditation techniques indulge in using RUclips and commenting their experiences here ?

Hi channel, thank you for all the effort and thoughtfulness in these videos. Really impacting a lot of people. Notice you guys use a version of the Green Tara Mantra in a lot of your videos and a lot of ppl seem interested in this version. Is it possible to credit the artist so we can all support? Understand you guys are working on rights to the music but if the artist / composer is available on digital services we’d love to support! Hopefully everyone here agrees :)))
I have read many of the comments and the responses are wonderful. That to me shows clearly the message of LOVE. I would be very grateful if someone could provide me with any info about the music that starts at about 15.50 mark and lasts till practically till the end. May all beings be blissful, may all beings be happy, may all beings be peaceful.

Modern society has been anything but innocent/pure. We need to live life the way God and nature intended for balance. Hopefully then we can break the cycle of our reincarnation and progress to the next world.
The real miracle would be if we are able to reveal that same universal consciousness in ourselves. This is the real message of all Avatars/guru’s/swami’s. The problem is that we worship the “persons” and not the teachings…. Many realized entities have warned us about this. Somehow most people have somehow convinced themselves that realization is far beyond their grasp in this lifetime… Ignorance is the greatest enemy of mankind today….
Could I please know why it is necessary to say that she was an avatar ? Why can't she be a normal human who gained power by spiritual practices and compassion ? Why these great people have left so much to learn for us ?.. because we can also attain this state but we don't as we are bound to ignorance and materialistic desires . And we , rather than learning from them are making them avatars .
@@Lost_inn_TimeShe was born a Divinity, which is the very definition of an Avatar, a Divine Incarnation of God. That's why. She was anything but normal. She was and is forever special. Divine Mother, the Blessed Virgin❤🕉❤🕉❤🕉❤
@@sixwingsram my question is , if all those who have attained the pure consciousness state are divine powers then why Adi Shankaracharya preach all of us to reach that state ? We all can reach the state of pure consciousness being a normal human but it’s very very difficult and almost impossible . But those who have done it , if we term them as avatars then the message is lost . The message that we humans can attain that state if we remove all our desires.
The Adi Dhakeshwari Mandir and the Romna Kalibari are two of the most sacred locations for the Bengali Shakto religious sect, both are in Dhaka. In 1971, the Pak Army burnt down both the locations unfortunately. The idol of Romna Kalibari was airlifted to Kolkata during partition in 1947.

This can happen only in Bharat! I can't imagine a Deva incarnating in the west. She or He would be dead soon or hospitalized in a mental institution for sure. Blessed and fortunate are all those who meet such a person, like Anandamayi Ma.
You always have yourself too. What these gurus reached, you already have within you as well. Just need the practice! Never think of yourself as separate, as we are all one. Loneliness comes from separation.

Don't worry, religion is a software problem of mind. Only because of Christianity and islam came 'hinduism', else there's no Hinduism. All will be converted back to santana Dharma. Dharma alone will prevail.
“Everything is in God’s hands, and you are His tool to be used by Him as He pleases. Try to grasp the significance of ‘all is His’, and you will immediately feel free from all burdens. What will be the result of your surrender to Him? None will seem alien, all will be your very own, your Self.”

Ma was sitting on the floor in the centre and asked me to come and sit in front of her. I went near her and stood there with my 'asana' tucked under my arm not knowing what to do. She took my asana from me and very lovingly spread it on the floor in front of her and asked me to sit on it. As I sat, she asked me whom would I like to pray to and whispered a mantra asking me to repeat. After I did that she put her hand on the top of my head and gently pushed it down to rest on her feet. My diksha was complete. I was too young to understand or perceive the significance of that event back then. My grandmother asked her for a pair of her used sandals. Ma obliged. My grandmother kept those sandals in her cupboard with great care. When I got married she passed them on to me. I have had Ma's used sandals in my prayer room since the past 30 years. In all these years ( probably 50 or more), the sandals don't look worn out or withered. The colour has darkened a little, but they are still a strong pair of footwear! Strange.. as any piece of cloth or paper would show signs of aging. And since the past 30 years , I have cleaned those sandals, lay my head on them and even shed tears on them during my times of distress. Everytime Ma has offered me solace, peace and a way out of my puzzled, problem life. Everytime I touch those sandles, I remember Ma's touch on my head and my head bowing to touch her feet. It fills me with strength, courage, peace, solace and everything positive that sees me through all the blows that life keeps hurling from time to time. Ma is the supreme energy within me that has helped me brave many storms, fight raging seas and shaped me to the person I am today, strong, confident, compassionate and brave. That is the power of my Guru.
This was a bit too long and thank you for your time and patience. May you always be blessed.
Man, she got a beauty you can't explain. It's like a divine beauty.
Thank you for this. Sri Anandamayi Ma is new to me; I just discovered this video today. I'm 63, and when I think of my life, I realize that I've always felt similarly to her, but never fit in with those "of the world". This makes me feel peace in my heart.
Same! Hearing her story helps me feel at ease within myself.

Indian spirituality is a truly wonderful thing.I love Ma.. The warmth in her eyes is something else .
Indian spirituality is a truly wonderful thing.
I love Ma.
Why?
@@lionlight777 That is such an unintelligent and perverted perception of the vastness of Indian Spirituality, that teaches universality, acceptance and love for all. Just for sake of saying one would quote Paganism and Idol worship to defame the practices of a country where literally spirituality, culture, literature and art originated not 100s but 10s of thousand years of years ago. The universality of message in world's oldest religious book the Rig Veda and the popularity of Bhagvad Gita all over the world says it all. The great minds like Carl Sagan, Max Muller, Robert Oppenheimer did see something valuable in there that you do not see it.. what a shame !!!
@@lionlight777 feel sorry for you who doesn't even know what Hinduism at least on the surface level.
@@rpsingh457 Bhavadgita is a mythic scripture and maybe followed to imbibe good values.. but not fake godmen and god women claiming they have higher powers
@@mitaliprabhu5252 not everyone is fake godman or godwoman. The essence of religion is to manifest divinity within youself. The likes of Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, Ramananmaharshi, Adi Sankara are many in Indian history and there are many in India even right now. If someone is a true seeker he or she will identify the enlightened beings.
I had a vision once when under intense stress and crying out to God for help internally. I felt soon after like I was talking with God, as in the ultimate creator of everything. 2 things that seem important and worth sharing was how we all have different stories and just generally an understanding of allowing people to be as they are. It was explained that "they"(not completely understood..Gods/angels/higher entities/different aspects of God) were learning to build bridges. This filled me with absolute awe and excitement. I kept repeating..really, oh how beautiful, oh how wonderful. Really .. I'm so happy you are building bridges.. After awhile i was told that i was a bridge builder. In my head at that time, this idea of building bridges meant that the different world religions, which i mostly thought of as Eastern and Western religions/philosophies would one day come together in union, the gap would be bridged. I am often turned off by how many evangelical christians that i regularly interact with see their way as the only way and they dismiss all others as being misguided. I do not know much about Hinduism as it seems to have a million different thoughts, but that in itself makes sense. I do not know the ultimate answers but i do have a feeling we really are all one. I think actions are what matter and the idea of being God centered instead of self centered is worthy of striving towards, no matter your story/path. I pray for all of us.
The bridge is to be built between the world's of non-duality and multiplicity.
Whenever I see the photograph of the mother i always feel ecstasy and such peace which can't be explained and her eyes just shower bliss and love to all
I totally agree!
Couldn’t agree more. Also, to me she looks like every woman I have ever known somehow! So beautiful. X
Same I feel when I see Yoganada Pramahans Guru ji' photo,I cry sooo much no idea why.
When I started my spiritual awakening, one of the things I started to do is drawing and painting. I draw this woman with my eyes closed. I never heard of her before. Never seen her in my life, however the drawing resemblance her face perfectly.why?
She was hiding somewhere in your soul your art brought her to the surface of your conscious mind. That's why art is a kind of worship/ meditation... so we believe in India.
Great
@@sunandamukherjee986 Interesting.
Well I've heard that spirit never dies. Life and Death is analogous to a person driving a car for some years, the car is lifeless, it's the person whose driving it actually operates it...he needs to feed the car with fuel...but then in period of time it wears off... and then user discards the older machine and gets into a new car...a new beginning... You probably have met her in some other timeline... God is greatest illusionist... his spell makes us forget our past...but sometimes some things manifest out of the blue...
She is mother nature
The warmth in her eyes is something else 🙏
Just by looking at her, I could sense the eternal bliss of the mother... WOW!
Yea, extraordinary isn't it. I feel a peace I do not normally, whenever they showed a picture of her in the vidi. Wow! indeed!.
They used to say the same about A.He Tler, David Koresh,Jim Jones... from time to time a "enlightened" poor indian pops up,a herd of desperate poor indians and hipocrite white burgois follows him or her,and fills his or her's pickets with money,so they can purchase a seat in heaven.
I agree
From Man-centredness to God-centredness, I have never heard put so directly.
I have often said we must return to religion and seek the advice of saints, rather than psychological treatment… but God centeredness, that is so absolutely unmistakable as the point. We are sick because we think of how we may please ourselves rather than God. The minute we extend ourselves and try to endeavor to please God we smack into the intense smallness, frailty and helplessness of being human, our limitedness causes to fail at that endeavor immediately and as soon as our pride breaks us we fall to pieces. From that spot we seek forgiveness for what we imagine to be our great accumulation of sin, then and only then do we see that all God wishes is for us to open to infinite love and to share the love we receive with others, in other words God love for us is boundless and his only standard is to love ourselves as he loves us. He shows us that we are complete and in that we need do nothing but recognize that our nature has always been perfect and we have strived so hard under shame and fear to be worthy of father and mother love and acceptance when we are inherently worthy.
In that space of eternal worthiness is the fullness of meaning and contentment with outer and inner. When we rest content in boundless meaning ever unfolding worthiness outside and inside like an ever flowing water fall of pure beauty. That is when bliss is met face to face, bliss arises as the truth and meaning of everything when everything is appreciated In it’s essence as the infinite stainless space of primordial purity.
We can’t ever know it until we give ourselves to Gods single commandment, love self and other, care for my children. Until we make God the center of life we will default to personal happiness at the center of life and because that happiness is personal and relative to the body. Our methods can never know transcendence and our definition of happiness can never transcend individual and personal material forms. Good and Evil arise from knowledge of self devoid of God’s infinite acceptance and existence of and as everything. We see everything in terms of our own personal notion of what is good and bad and so carve up the world into friend and enemy, good and bad. So instead of a religious life where good is to forgive and love, we live in politics where good is what aligns with our values and personal beliefs. We mistake the errors of our time as eternal, we see everyone as being stuck in the moment we occupy. We don’t ever see how the one who harms or the harm itself being a cause and inspiration for acts of healing and forgiveness. We see the Devils of this world as only needless causes of suffering rather than the essential partners of their opposites. If nobody was hurting compassion could not arrive, if there were no errors, forgiveness could not arise. If their were no poor than generosity could not arise. When we see everything as having equal value both good and bad being in their rightful place, as harm being the soil from which healing grows. When we see the completeness and essential nature of everything as being wholly necessary to drive beings to virtue, then and only then will we be at peace. And only from peace can bliss arise as a permanent fixture of our life. Until that day there will be only enemies. Even is we drive enemies away our mindset will look for new ones because we in our inner life have no cause for bliss until we know the entirety as primordial pure creation of God.
We will seek disagreements simply so we can feel correct, righteous and intelligent. We will scold people so we can feel wise and knowing. We will be angry so we can feel we are on the side of the good. But if we believed and knew all was good and good was all there is, then everything is on the way to holiness, step by step it is all a pilgrimage, no matter how evil a manifestation is in the moment, if we trust in God’s plan to engineer every soul into sainthood through the poetry of circumstance, we will still rest at ease in our heart, even if we are heartbroken and full of negativity if we have seen God’s bliss and trust it is always there, if we know the great Guru is the ground of being and trust in the enlightened intent of creation then we will always have that golden thread pulling us slowly through the darkness and uncertainty. Because our troubles are just part of the play of the divine, our happiness is temporary but Gods love is the center of our lives. We had already made the decision to live a God centered life and so if we must suffer in his service then their is no meaningless suffering, all our hardships are boundless in their meaning because they are in service of the meaning of meaning, beauty of beauty, and love of love in God. That is the small window where fleshy human beings can view the ever radiant transcendent joy of bliss that is knowledge of God’s boundless love for us.
May we all find that and wield that truth as a light and torch to guide and help self and other in the darkness that is incarnation.

bruh she a scary scammer grandma
I've never heard of Anandamayi Ma, but by the end of this video, I have tears in my eyes because I feel the Divine Mother in her. It's not even *in* her, it IS her! I hope to visit her Ashram and burial site one day. I consider myself a Christian, but she is right in that the point of all religion is to Self-realize.
this work and Ma ... not knowing anything about her, she made me cry tears of joy ... so thankful, goosebumps and relief ... the understood and shares this legacy with all of us. Thank you so much.
You should consider a pilgrimage to her samadhi shrine. If you do decide to do so.
Follow these instructions. Take an austerity for a determined period of time. For example.
1) Give alcohol and sex and meat for 90 days.
2) Take it upon yourself, without anyone's support, to make some heartfelt prayer, at the same time, once, twice, or three times a day, every day from when you begin your austerities through your pilgrimage to India and until after your return to the USA.
3) Ask for her blessing in some matter important to you. Ask her, or ask God, or ask both as they are one and the same. Tell no one of this. Remember God with form is the Guru, God without form is the nameless formless infinite light.
Have faith in your practice, and in your intention. Tell no one of your spiritual practices until after you have completed them for any length of time, and even then speak of them without pride. Modestly.
Humility leads to wisdom. Good luck. (Yes, I followed my own advice in April of 1980. I met my Guru the following month. He took Mahasamadhi the same year as Ma, in 1982. It was a busy year.)
Peace.
She lived a very good life, full of reverence and devotion. I want to be like her. Please.

Lovely summing up of the life and times of Ma Ananda Mayee. 'Bizarre' in my view has a tinge of Chauvinism. In fitness of of Her devoted spiritual life, the title of the video should be restated as " The Enlightened life of Ma Ananda Mayee".
I was just thinking too that the word 'Bizarre' felt wholly inappropriate.
Si, bizarro se usa más para algo alterado, no natural, supongo usaron la palabra como tracción de marketing, porque ella es toda armonía.
I think it was used to attract viewers.
In my family everyone is devoted to Ma Anandamai. Her teaching is wonderful. We had many books of her full of her teaching. She is wonderful. Thanks for the video sir. 🙏🙏🙏
I visited the ashram and was so peaceful there. I wish I can visit that dham again soon.
There are so many ashrams that Ma visited. Which one do you mean? May God bless all devotees of true saints.
@@hilohattie3681 I visited the one in Haridwar.
I was a very similar child. People said the same thing about me. I had the same experiences, but no one believed me. I lived in an aggressive house. I hid these aspects of myself because I was being ridiculed. Now I see I was right to be gentle and blissful. Thank you ma. Now the good work can begin.

Thank you so much 🙏 I was barely twenty when she would have attained Samadhi. But, I have been blessed by the presence of one of her few sanyasi disciples Ma Krishnanandgiri (who had chosen to live in the Himalayas) in my life, and this video resonates so much with the source of everything I have hopefully imbibed from the presence of my Ma. It feels like Ma Anandamayi thus brought her presence to my life. May Ma bless us all 🙏🙏

My father attended her last procession in dehradun in 1982,as we were living there and used to revere her,being out of town he happened to encounter her procession and was overwhelmed that he could pay his homage to Maa.Such is the working of a divine soul.
“My grandfather & grandmother has taken Deeksha in Ranchi, blessings of Maa & Hari Baba is always with our family!”
This is a beautiful documentary and thank you so much for introducing me to Ma. This brought me to tears, I needed to hear these words today 🙏🏼
C'est la nuit, je pleurais aussi, je pleurais sur mon sort et mes pleurs se sont arrêtés...
Thanks for this video! Feel rejuvenated, proud, overjoyed that such Spiritual leaders like her and many others were born to enlighten us with their ways. The more the world turns tumultuous, the more their guidance is just right there for us to grasp and proceed...🙏
Even by the very first look we can feel the motherly feeling from her...
She passed on 6 days after I was born. Thank you for uploading this video!👍
She really has a divine aura clad on her face.. what a remarkable personality..
“The victory of bliss” that is such a beautiful phrase
Bro the background music got me goosebumps. I am so much spiritually excited to see this video. Thank you.
Your spirit touches my spirit ..I pray we all can walk through the other side soon !!
Very nice you included Sri yoganda’s comments, and anyone interested in Ma should read his amazing autobiography. He himself was an enlightened master and his book is an important and also entertaining spiritual classic. He also describes meeting Gandhi and other spiritual giants.
Thank you Ma for coming here to remind us about what is real, it is so easy to forget.
Wrong Gandhi was not a spiritual giant. Sri Aurobindo was a spiritual giant. Do your research. Google Sri Aurobindo on Gandhi. Find out what Anandamoyee Maa once expressed how she while in Bhimtaal in her subtle body met Sri Aurobindo on another plane. Gandhi and his failed policy of muslim appeasement and open support of khilaphat movement set the stage for bloody partition of India. Sri Aurobindo was India's most sagacious leader and a spiritual giant. Read what he wrote about how crazy MK Gandhi was. Gandhi was portrayed as a great man by the Nehrus and the Gandhis (muslims with hindu names as Natwar Singh revealed in his memoire) and hara... marxist liberals who distorted indian history in history books that we were taught in history classes. Gandhi was the most deceptive leader that most leader did not know how crazy he was. Only Sri Aurobindo and Dr Ambedkar knew about Gandhi.
The greatness of Sri Aurobindo was that he was not only a spiritual giant but the savvyest of all leaders in politics. He was the only leader who knew and wrote about how super crazy MK Gandhi was. Dr Ambedkar also knew Gandhi was not a mahatma. Paramahansa Yogananda like Tagore and other great men was never in politics so he did not know like Sri Aurobindo knew that Gandhi was a super crazy leader.
@@dnag02 That's pretty interesting. I read Aurobindo on Gandhi as you suggested, and the Wikipedia article on Aurobindo, so I'm no expert. I know very little about how the events transpired in those decades leading to Indian Independence, I admit my ignorance of the details, and I might be inspired to learn more.
Also my comment was about Yogananda.
However I think more importantly it seems to me in our conversation we would need to come to some definition of terms in order to proceed, and that in itself may prove impossible. The key term is "spiritual giant." What do you mean by that? What makes someone a spiritual giant?
Clearly it can't be evaluated on how successful that person was in tangible 3-D material world terms. Or can it? For example Jesus, was he a "spiritual giant"? He certainly was a failure in terms of what he achieved e.g. politically in his lifetime. You could also say he "laid the groundwork" for the Crusades, which led to so many unnecessary death (?).
I think we can say neither Aurobindo nor Gandhi are at the level of Nityananda of Ganesh Puri, or Gautama Buddha. Those two had very little to say about contemporary earthly matters at all. On the other hand I believe both Gandhi and Aurobindo were more spiritual giants than I am. Meanwhile I am "giant" compared to some people living on this planet at this time.
From what I've understood so far, Aurobindo's main criticism of Gandhi was ultimately how effective it is. Do you reason with the snake or the scorpion, or do you kill them? Today we still have that question vexing us mightily. The Kshatriya class never did expunge evil in this world, so I'm not sure how effective that approach has been either, maybe time will still tell in the months and years to come.
As a final question though I'll ask whether you've done your research as well - have you personally read Gandhi's autobiography Experiments With Truth? Or have you formed your conclusion merely on the basis of what others have said about Gandhi? In other words, what do you think about that book, what specific points might you make about it that are really your own thinking?
Cheers,
@@dnag02 I can't seem to reply to your latest post directly under that post so I'll reply here.
You are asking me questions but you didn't answer my questions, which were and are fair questions absolutely germane to a respectful exchange of views for a conversation like ours. Your further questions here lead me to believe however you are more thinking of our exchange as debate, which I'm not interested in frankly. I've taken your point, which as I said is interesting. Your cup however seems to be already full to the brim as the Zen saying goes, so I'll only wish you a good day.
@@teach-learn4078 "I think we can say neither Aurobindo nor Gandhi are at the level of Nityananda of Ganesh Puri" - I think you do not know enough to make that statement. Let me ask you what truth do you think MK Gandhi found and expressed in his book. Gandhi was a shrewd politician who never did any spiritual sadhana but he used to act and talk like he was a saint. The reason I would not read that book is because I like many believe that he is the man singularly responsible for how India experienced a bloody partition and India's many subsequent huge issues. Just so you are aware, Gandhi made attempts twice to meet with Sri Aurobindo in Pondicherry after Sri Aurobindo attained yoga siddhi and Sri Aurobindo declined both times to meet with Gandhi. May I know what other books on Indian spirituality did you read other than the book that Gandhi wrote? You mention Nityananda of Ganeshpuri or Lord Buddha but you did not mention the names of the famous ones like Ramana Maharishi, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo, Paramahansa Yogananda and his lineage of great Gurus, Swami Sivananda of Rishikesh, Sai Baba, Anandamoyee Maa and many others. You seem to know very little about India's spiritual traditions.
Wow. Thank you for this video about a Great Saint. Loved that Om Tara Tuttare Ture Soha being played in the background too.

I absolutely love Ma Anandamayi. Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha! Jai Maa
Looking at some of the comments here , I am from the school of thought that 'if you don't have anything positive to say , then don't bother'.
There's enough negativity in the world without the need to add to it.
Instead I wish everyone love , peace, tolerance & happiness, especially to our perceived enemies.
I prefer to think - there are no problems , only solutions
🙏💕🙏
Thanks for the video! Great summary of Ma's life. Yes, in Paramahamsa Yogananda's book, he mentions about Anandamayi Ma.
I m lucky that I live near her Ashram. We visit there every Durga Puja & my Kumari Puja was done there in my childhood 🙂
A highly illumined soul was Ma Anandmoi. Her meeting with Paramhansa Yogananda in 1935 was very interesting as described in the world famous book " An Autobiography of a Yogi" written by Paramhansa Yogananda himself. Both of them being highly illumined souls.
How about her meeting with Sri Aurobindo and the mother of Pondicherry?
Totally invaluable teachings for one following "the path". And an absolutely flawless biography. Thanks very much !!.
Thank you for this video. 🥹🙏 It brought me to blissful happy tears by the end. Jai Ma. May we all feel the unwavering bliss that we truly are.

I can feel peace and contentment just by watching this video. She is really a gift to this universe.
as someone who is very critical of spiritual videos, this one is very good to watch
This is a beautiful story and life of Saint - not a Bizarre one. Please use the right adjective that shows veneration for such an elevated being to walk amidst us. She was revered as the highest by the all accomplished Gurus of that time!
The cure for our severe illness cannot be brought about by engineers, psychologist, or sociologist but by Doctors of the Soul.
True but the only problem is most of us do not know if there is something called a soul. I have never experienced what we call soul. If I die without finding my soul in this life, that will be the greatest tragedy in my life.

Beautifully made video. It had been showing in my feed for a week, but I was hesitant because of the 'bizarre' in the title. After watching it, I feel like "the blissful life" might be a more suitable choice. I appreciate the wonderful efforts. Namaste.
I was attracted to her eyes and would stare into her eyes every night. One day ,I spoke to her and said , " Ma I want to go in search of spirituality but I cannot leave my home and live in a cave or in the Himalayas. I got an instant answer within as I looked into her eyes." You need not go anywhere . If you are desperate the answers will come to you at home ." .. and it sure did by the grace of many teachers. I did go seeking to many places too.
That is actually a kind of meditation, a quite poweful one.

Hi channel, thank you for all the effort and thoughtfulness in these videos. Really impacting a lot of people. Notice you guys use a version of the Green Tara Mantra in a lot of your videos and a lot of ppl seem interested in this version. Is it possible to credit the artist so we can all support? Understand you guys are working on rights to the music but if the artist / composer is available on digital services we’d love to support! Hopefully everyone here agrees :)))
Let me know if you find it please!
so reassuring to see this video of Anandamayi Ma. I love learning of her life and teachings.
I have read many of the comments and the responses are wonderful. That to me shows clearly the message of LOVE. I would be very grateful if someone could provide me with any info about the music that starts at about 15.50 mark and lasts till practically till the end. May all beings be blissful, may all beings be happy, may all beings be peaceful.

Modern society has been anything but innocent/pure. We need to live life the way God and nature intended for balance. Hopefully then we can break the cycle of our reincarnation and progress to the next world.
Even the unnatural is nature. Pureness and innocence are what this is.
That was excellent! she looks so blissful in all those pictures!
She was and is Eternally Divine. She gifted us with Her Presence as an Avatar upon the earth; our Divine Mother incarnate🕉💜🕉💜🕉💜🕉
The real miracle would be if we are able to reveal that same universal consciousness in ourselves. This is the real message of all Avatars/guru’s/swami’s. The problem is that we worship the “persons” and not the teachings…. Many realized entities have warned us about this. Somehow most people have somehow convinced themselves that realization is far beyond their grasp in this lifetime… Ignorance is the greatest enemy of mankind today….

Could I please know why it is necessary to say that she was an avatar ? Why can't she be a normal human who gained power by spiritual practices and compassion ? Why these great people have left so much to learn for us ?.. because we can also attain this state but we don't as we are bound to ignorance and materialistic desires . And we , rather than learning from them are making them avatars .
@@Lost_inn_TimeShe was born a Divinity, which is the very definition of an Avatar, a Divine Incarnation of God. That's why. She was anything but normal. She was and is forever special. Divine Mother, the Blessed Virgin❤🕉❤🕉❤🕉❤
@@sixwingsram my question is , if all those who have attained the pure consciousness state are divine powers then why Adi Shankaracharya preach all of us to reach that state ? We all can reach the state of pure consciousness being a normal human but it’s very very difficult and almost impossible . But those who have done it , if we term them as avatars then the message is lost . The message that we humans can attain that state if we remove all our desires.
I believe I have finally found a great soul and divine master with whom I can open up my heart to venerate and learn from.
The Adi Dhakeshwari Mandir and the Romna Kalibari are two of the most sacred locations for the Bengali Shakto religious sect, both are in Dhaka.
In 1971, the Pak Army burnt down both the locations unfortunately. The idol of Romna Kalibari was airlifted to Kolkata during partition in 1947.
the clam and peace of himalayas is so pure , it is the home of lord shiva ....anyone that seeks true liberation should visit ....
I feel lucky to have come across your channel. Honestly your narration is just perfect and easy to conceive. I could see you have used picture of Laldyad (Laleshwari) in the thumbnail, so had a request if you can make same kind of video on her. Also had a request to please share the sound track that you have used, it is mellifluous.
This was so beautiful. Thank you.
The ppl who wanted to convert Hindus into Christianity have automatically diverted towards Hinduism by default naturally ❤
May I be Blessed to Live A Long Old Age Of 86 Years Old I Love My Life God Has Given Me ❤️ I AM Thankful For My Life ❤
at 11:02 Maharishi Mahesh Yogi is seen in pic with the Holy Mother. An old picture of MA is also present in the Maharishi Thiruverkadu campus, Chennai. #maharishimaheshyogi
Excellent video on Ma Anandamayi, one of the important Hindu Sage
This can happen only in Bharat! I can't imagine a Deva incarnating in the west. She or He would be dead soon or hospitalized in a mental institution for sure. Blessed and fortunate are all those who meet such a person, like Anandamayi Ma.
Thank you for this material. I have started practicing and find this material extremely helpful.
How lucky people are who have a guru or saint who lead them everyday and who defend them ...I have nobody😢
No, think that, by thinking about your 'chosen Guru(s) you will draw them to you!! You can do that through deep meditation, God bless you❤❤❤
You always have yourself too. What these gurus reached, you already have within you as well. Just need the practice! Never think of yourself as separate, as we are all one. Loneliness comes from separation.
01:29 In regards to big trees am always keeping in mind the words of Constantin Brancusi: "In the shade of the great trees grows nothing. Not even grass."
The place where i live...this place is named after her name because she used to came this place many times and the former king of my small town was a big devotee or follower of her.🙏🙏🙏
Where do u live ? Name of place ?
Dhaka in 1924 hindu worship place in 2024 no hindus are there in Dhaka. Think about it
Indians are Indians.
@@Otto-Just clearly you don't have anything substantial to say
No hindus in dhaka!! Where did you get this information from??
@@abdullahnronee he said correct no hindu in dhaka
Don't worry, religion is a software problem of mind. Only because of Christianity and islam came 'hinduism', else there's no Hinduism. All will be converted back to santana Dharma. Dharma alone will prevail.
