SALAGRAM SILA CREATED IN THE YEAR 1993
Srimaad Sarathi went to a place to grace a spiritual function. One of the devotees wanted to know about the origin of “Salagrama" during his conversation with Bhagaban Srimaad Sarathi. The beloved prabhujee narrated vividly the mythological story embedded behind the origin of 'Salagrama Sila'. All of a sudden Srimaad Sarathi stood up and was found in a restless mood, when the devotees came rushing at Him He forbade them to touch him. To everyone's surprise he vomited something in his palm which looked like semi liquid fats. He washed it in water and it took the shape of 'Salagram Sila'. Then He gave it to a deserving devotee and it is being worshiped now. Even Same thing again happened again and again in front of millions of devotees.
Mystery of Bibhuti.
The word BHASMA means “that by which our sins are destroyed and the Lord is remembered". ”Bha” implies Bhartsana (“to destroy”) and “sma” implies smaranam (“to remember”). The application of Bhasma therefore signifies destruction of the evil and remembrance of the divine. Bhasma is called Vibhuti (“glory”)as it gives glory to one who applies it and protection as it protects the wearer from ill health and evil, by purifying him or her. The ash we apply indicates that we should burn false identification with body and become free of the limitations of birth and death. It also reminds us that the body is perishable and shall one day be reduced to ashes. As death can come at any moment, this awareness must increase our drive to make the best use of time. This is not to be misconstrued as a morose reminder of death, but as a powerful pointer towards the fact that time and tide waits for none.
Bhasma is specially associated with Lord Shiva, who applies it all over his body. According to Hindu mythology Vibhuti or Bhasma is said to be favorite to Lord Shiva and that's why He is often called Vibhuti Bhushan (the one having ash as his ornament). Shiva devotees apply bhasma as a tripundra (the form of three lines). When applied with a red spot in the centre, the mark symbolises Shiva-Shakti (the unity of energy and matter that creates the entire seen and unseen universe).
Srimaad Sarathi brings Bibhuti from void. He who has deep love and firm faith in him gets 'Bibhuti' from his hand. Bibhuti comes to his hand when wished for. Bhagaban Srimaad Sarathi gives it to the deserving devotees as a rare thing. Devotees always cherish to get it. Many want it but a few get it.
Bhagaban Srimaad Sarathi draws marks of Bibhuti (ashes) on foreheads so that evils will not befall on his devotees. He that draws marks of Bibhuti (ashes) on his foreheads attends success in.
