Sehore, March 8 (Hindustan Reporter) Success and satisfaction are two different things. You can achieve success with your hard work but you will have to face difficulties to achieve satisfaction. You will get success even after worshiping Lord Bhole. Ashutosh means one who becomes happy quickly. Along with the Gods, all the demons have also praised Lord Shiva, in all the ages the demons never had enmity with Lord Shiva, nor did Lord Shiva ever have any hostility towards any creature including the demons. Therefore Lord Shiva is dear and worshipable to all living beings, that is why Lord Shiva is called Ashutosh.
This idea was expressed by famous storyteller Pandit Pradeep Mishra while addressing lakhs of devotees who participated in Shiv Mahapuran on Friday, the second day of the ongoing seven-day Rudraksh Mahotsav at the under-construction Murali Manohar and Kubereshwar Mahadev Temple located at Chitwaliya Hema, near the district headquarters. During the Katha, former Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan, State Sports Minister Vishwas Sarang, MLA Sudesh Rai, Municipality President Prince Rathore etc. public representatives also arrived and took the blessings of Gurudev Pandit Pradeep Mishra.
While narrating the story, Pandit Pradeep Mishra said that if a person remembers the Ashutosh form of Lord Shiva and worships Lord Shiva, then all the hatred in that person's mind gets eliminated. Today all the living beings of the world should also follow the Ashutosh form of Lord Shiva. When confusion is arising in life, even after getting life the confusion is increasing, then a person should pronounce and remember the name of Lord Shiva as Ashutosh. Every human being should include God's form in his daily routine. When you add service and cooperation to your business and daily routine, you will not be able to imagine what Lord Shiva will give you. Today, due to the kindness of Shiva, this world has become Shiva-like. Now even in foreign countries, God's temples are being constructed at a rapid pace. The Prime Minister of our country went abroad and established the temple of God.
Pandit Mishra described in detail the ideas mentioned in Shikari and other Puranas while describing the importance of Mahashivratri. Explaining the importance of Lord Shankar's Shivratri, he said that Ashu means quick and Tosh means one who is appeased, happy. God is immediately pleased by the prayers of his devotees, hence he is called Ashutosh. They are satisfied just by anointing with water, there is no need to do anything more.
On the second day of Rudraksh Mahotsav, a flood of faith was seen on the occasion of Mahashivratri. During this period, more than six lakh devotees reached Kubereshwar Dham and listened to the story of Shiva Purana. Here, lakhs of devotees have been camping in the pandal for two days already. The pandals are packed well before time. People listened to the story with umbrella and saree in the sun. Devotees are gathered in 50 acres of ground.
Vithlesh Seva Samiti's media in-charge Priyanshu Dixit said that this time double the number of devotees compared to last year have reached Kubereshwar Dham to listen to the story of Lord Shankar's holy Shiva Mahapuran. This year, due to the activeness of the committee, area residents and district administration, there is no jam on highways etc. Apart from help centres, health camps, arrangements for drinking water and food have been made at many places for the coming devotees.
Here, the team of Paneer Factory Director Rajendra Prasad Modi, Kishan Modi and Manager DC Baghel is distributing Thandai to the devotees coming here. More than 12 thousand liters of buttermilk etc. are being distributed. This sequence will continue in future also. Apart from this, the committee has made arrangements for food and drinking water at many places.
