Host: Gurudev, my respects to you.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: Blessings, my child, blessings.
Host: Gurudev, our beloved Pagla Baba, who is blessed by your grace, has visited the Kamakhya Temple today. He has sent his respects to you and the entire circle of devotees from there, and he has shared some videos. Gurudev, if you could tell us something about his temple visit and this first step of his spiritual practice (Sadhana).
Guru Shyama Khyapa: When we visited about 30 years ago, based on the images I see now, it looks very modernized. In our time, there weren't so many buildings and structures. One thing is certain, and the second is that Kund (holy pond) you see—it has great significance. In the old days, there were many curses (shapa), and many people would give curses. That is why if one circles that pond seven times while reciting a specific mantra, their previous sins and curses are cleansed.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: That is why I told him to go and cleanse those curses at the Kund first. There is a mantra for removing curses. After cleansing the curses, he should bathe in the water, offer prayers to Lord Ganesha, and then enter the Mother's temple. He has done all of that. He followed everything exactly as I instructed.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: Now, he will stay in Kamakhya for six months to perform his Sadhana. He has also found a place to stay. He told me, "I won't return before six months; I will practice penance there for six months." I said, "Very well, perform your penance, worship the Mother." He said he found a good place. I told him to continue his practice. If I can, I will visit once. If I cannot go physically, I will go in my subtle body (Sukshma deha). That's fine; I have visited the Mother many times in my subtle body, and he knows that well.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: I bless him and pray to Mother Kamakhya that his dreams may be fulfilled and that he may attain spiritual success (Siddhi) at Kamakhya. The Mother will grant this; there is no problem. Based on the mantras he knows, it will happen. I have given him the rest—some specific mantras which, if chanted or used in fire rituals (Homa), will help him attain success very soon. So, it is all well. Let him complete his six months of penance there, and after that, he will likely visit Pashupatinath before returning. It's a matter of six or seven months, not less than that.
Host: Gurudev, we have learned about your disciple Pagla Baba and the first stage of his Sadhana. Dear viewers, you have also heard this. Along with this video blessed by Gurudev, we are sending a video of Pagla Baba's current location and his visit to the temple. Please watch and see how he has progressed step-by-step with Gurudev's blessings. Stay with us, watch, and if you have any opinions, please let us know. Share them with Gurudev, and we will present your thoughts and questions to him.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: Yes, yes. That is right.
Host: Thank you, Gurudev. My respects.
Guru Shyama Khyapa: Blessings, my child.
Pagla Baba: Greetings, I am Pagla Baba. Today, I am at the Mother Kamakhya Temple. We are here today; you can see the spire of the Mother Kamakhya Temple. And over here, we can see the two Lion Gates (Singha Dwar). This Lion Gate holds great significance.
Pagla Baba: I started my journey on the 26th of November. After 59 days of walking—covering a very long distance on foot—I reached the Mother's temple two days ago. I would have shared the video two days ago, but it took a day to arrange my accommodation and settle in, so I apologize for the delay.
Pagla Baba: Secondly, to everyone who sent their well-wishes and prayed to God for the success of my journey, I offer my respects. I pray to the Mother for each of you—may she keep everyone happy, well, and in peace.
Pagla Baba: The entire credit for this long journey goes to my Gurudev. It is because of my Gurudev that this journey has been successful. For those who have offered my hard work at the Mother's feet, I pray that the Mother keeps our Hindu society and Sanatan society well and healthy. This is my message to everyone.
Pagla Baba: Now, having arrived after such a long journey, my heart feels much lighter than before. You can also see the Mother's Kund behind me. I feel much lighter now. There was a lot of responsibility, and after offering prayers to the Mother, I feel a sense of relief.
Pagla Baba: I first offer my respects to all the devotees, then to Gurudev, and I offer my profound respects to Mother Kamakhya. Many people faced difficulties during this journey, like those who provided me with shelter—I ask for their forgiveness. Gurudev also faced hardships, which saddens me, and the Mother of the Universe also had to endure some trouble for me. I ask for everyone's forgiveness. Many people helped me through various problems and conveniences along this long path.
Pagla Baba: I have nothing more to say for now. May Mother Kamakhya keep everyone well. May Gurudev stay in good health. I offer my respects to all our YouTube viewers and members. I pray to Mother Kamakhya for the well-being of every member. May everyone be happy and well. With this, I conclude my video today. Victory to Mother Kamakhya! Victory to Gurudev! Victory to the Mother! Jai Tara! Jai Tara!
