Swami Chaityananda Maharaj
of Vallimalai Ashram blessed Sri Sitaramji for his successful yatra. Sri Kesava Vinayakam Ji, Dakshin Pranth
Pracharak said, “The place Kanyakumari has a great significance. Various yatras have started from here. Even Vishwa Guru Adi Sankara also started his
advaita yatra from this point. The dream
of Sitaram Ji ‘Grama Rajyam — Rama Rajyam’ will come true as this place has
more shakthi.” Sewa Bharathi Organiser
Balasundaram, President Ramanathan, Sri Parameshwaran, Senior Swayamsevak Sri
Ram Mohan, Vibhag Pracharak Sri Suresh participated in the ceremony. The yatra kicked off at 7.30 a.m. after the
ceremony. He walked on the first day for
12 kms. Sri Sitaram Ji sticks on for
single meal a day. He will have no
possessions or belonging with him. During
his walk he sings bhajan songs. His routine would be as follows: Stay in a home
during nights. While walking he sings bhajans. During afternoons, he goes in front
of a house asks ‘Bhikshan Dehi’ and the lady at home will feed him for 3 times.
Then he enters that home and eats only 3 handful of rice given by the Annapoorni. He gives lectures to mahilas at temples and meets
the sick and elderly people. He also meets
the youth and will have discussion with them. He emphasizes on 6 points – One should
love his village, love the mankind, conserve the water, help elders and all
living beings, and grama upliftment. For
this, a monthly Milan can be encouraged and transformation can be brought into
slowly. Yatra Slogan ‘Know Bharath; Be Bharath; Make
Bharath” clearly visions the grama upliftment.
