Hanuman Chalisa workshop
Tumblr media
From Flow of Grace, by KD:
I went to India in the fall of 1970 to meet Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaj-ji), after having heard about him from Ram Dass.
By the spring of 1971, I , along with some other westerners, had gone up to the Kumaon Hills, the magical foothills of the Himalayas, where Maharajji was staying at his Hanuman temple in Kainchi. We were staying at the Evelyn Hotel in the nearby hill station of Nainital. Every day we would make the one hour trip by bus along the narrow winding roads through the mountains to see him and spend the day at the temple. Each time we arrived, we were fed a huge, delicious meal of puris and potatoes and given a little booklet with a picture of Hanuman on it. One day, I happened to ask someone at the temple about them and was told that they contained a prayer to Hanuman called the Hanuman Chalisa. The Hanuman Chalisa is a hymn of forty verses that describes and praises the life, character, and exploits of Hanuman. At that moment, I had the idea to try to learn it so we could sing it to Maharajji.
Rameshwar Das, another American, and I began to learn the Hindi alphabet. We transcribed the whole prayer and were taught a melody by an Indian friend. It took the whole rainy season and summer to begin to feel comfortable singing the Chalisa. By the time we returned to Nainital and Kainchi, most of the other westerners had copied it into their books and had begun to learn it as well. We hadn't even memorized six verses when one afternoon we were called to the front of the temple where Maharajji was sitting. He was very excited and said , " Sing the Chalisa!"
We were completely unprepared but managed to sing the few verses we knew. He laughed and was very happy.
We quickly became an official part of the 'show.'
When Indian devotees came to see him, Maharajji would often call us and have us sing the Chalisa. No matter how many times we did it, he would always look totally surprised-with a look of joy and amazement on His face, as if it were the first time he had ever heard it.
He would laughingly tease his Indian devotees for their lack of devotion and sincerity, saying , " look at these people. Out of their love for God, they have left everything behind in America, while you wicked, greedy people come to see me out of your own selfish desires!"
Of course, it was all part of his unique way of teaching everyone their own special lesson.
We began to chant the Hanuman Chalisa as a way of bringing ourselves into Maharajji's physical presence.
It was a way of expressing our love and devotion to him.
For us, Hanuman and Maharajji were the same.
Chanting the Chalisa to Maharajji helped us enter into the love that his presence embodied.
It became a way of deepening our relationship with him, and ultimately with ourselves.
It has been thirty-three years since Maharajji has left his body, and chanting the Chalisa has become an even more powerful way for me to enter into the flow of Love and Grace.
In the Chalisa, we bow to the great beauty, strength, and devotion that Hanuman embodies ; we also begin to bow to that place in ourselves.
The Chalisa inspires us to try  to become like him, to make the mirror of our heart as clean as Hanuman's so that we can become aware of the great beauty and love that lives within us, our own true nature., the One
without a second.
This is the Great being known by many names throughout the many spiritual and religious traditions in the world.
Each culture and each religion has its own coloured glasses through which it sees the universe. The reports from the frontlines differ only in form, not in substance. They are all looking at the same thing.
Maharajji would continually remind us that it is all One. Over and over he said ,"Hanuman, Christ, and Krishna are the same," and "all paths lead to the same goal."
Again and again, he turned us to the oneness of life, reminding us that 'the same blood runs through everyone's veins."
It was through reading and chanting the Hanuman Chalisa that I began to understand the subtlety and power of the path of devotion and the sublime way that love can transform the hardest heart into the heart of a saint.
It is love that brings meaning to our lives. The path of love goes right through the middle of every heart. No one is locked out. No one is turned away. No one is unworthy.
The love that lives within each and every being is Bhagavan; it is Ram, Buddha nature, the Atman, the Great Goddess, the Self, the One. It is who we are- our own True Nature, radiant and shining like a million suns.We long to be with the Beloved , to feel that presence of love in our hearts, but in the eyes of God, we have never been separate-not even for a second.
The Hanuman Chalisa is chanted specifically to clean the mirror of our hearts so we can become into direct contact with the grace of Hanuman. His Grace awakens us to the awareness of Ram's presence within.This is when our hearts truly come alive.

Chant the Name and Write a Blog Post!
Even the biggest dream catcher won’t always catch the dreams This morning I woke up restless, and extremely tired. It felt as if I hadn t slept at all, though I know I did. Who can say about these things? Perhaps dreams disturbed me or something. Anyway, despite this grogginess/restlessness vibe, I resolved to get on with morning routines. And, in addition to breakfast and normal stuff, I set…
