Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam 


On 18th August 2005, our Dear Sadguru Shri Aniruddha Bapu, on the auspicious day of Thursday founded the “Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam at Shri Harigurugram.

The underlying meaning of Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam is remembrance of GOD and HIS glories and graces in such a way, so that it leads all the devotees to the path of happiness and devotion in their lives. 

Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam implies a Notebook which gives the devotees an opportunity to recollect the sacred name of GOD anytime and everytime.





The book contains 220 pages. Every page of the book has Lord Hanumanta’s image watermarked in the background, on which the devotees get the golden opportunity to write various name of God.





It is mentioned in Ramrasayan by our Dear Sadguru Shri Aniruddha Bapu, when we write Ram name of the akruti (image) of Lord Hanumanta, Lord Hanumanta acts as messenger (doot) of Lord Rama and our prayers and jap reaches to Lord Ram through Lord Hanumanta and hence we get 10 times benefit than usual.
The book contains 220 pages which includes the following:


1)      Ram naam jap – Each page has 12 rows and 9 columns totaling 108 squares devoted to writing this naam. Each page also contains 3 images of god Hanuman.


2) Shri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram jap – Each page has 3 rows and 9 columns totaling 27 rectangles devoted to writing this naam. Each page also contains 3 images of god Hanuman.

3) Krishna naam jap – Each page has 12 rows and 9 columns totaling 108 squares devoted to writing this naam. Each page also contains 3 images of god Hanuman.

4) Dattaguru naam jap – Each page has 6 rows and 9 columns totaling 54 squares devoted to writing this naam. Each page also contains 3 images of god Hanuman.

5) Jai Jai Aniruddha Hari jap – Each page has 3 rows and 9 columns totaling 27 rectangles devoted to writing this naam. Each page also contains 3 images of god Hanuman.

The holy purpose behind images of god Hanuman on each page of note book is to do POOJA of god Hanuman along with writing the naam.

What is the main purpose behind starting this project?
The main purpose behind starting this project is to take a human being more and closer towards god. God’s name is the most powerful way to deal with all kinds of challenges we face in real life. We should never forget the god. God is everywhere and he is watching us always. The more you take god’s name, the better comes to you. So, P.P. Aniruddha Bapu started this project. Here along with writing Naam, you will be doing POOJA of god Hanuman too. P.P. Aniruddha Bapu has advice everybody to write this note book as many times as possible. This will increase the power of human to face all kinds of challenges and go closer to god.

 Who can write this note book?
ShriMadpurshartha Grantharaj Trutiya Khand Anandsadhana talks about various ashram vrata and describes rules to be followed in each ashram; Grantharaj says that in Brahamacharyashram between ages of 8 till 20 years one should write minimum one page of Ramnaam book daily. And in Grahasthashram that is above 21 years one should write minimum three pages of Ramnaam book daily.


 Every Bhakta may on special occasions (e.g. birthdays, weddings) resolve to fill in a note book for the benefit of the dear one, in which case the notebook may be used accordingly. The benefit will be for both (who is writing the notebook and for whom notebook is written)

 How can the note book be written?
Bhakta may fill in their note books in a script and ink of their choice. The note books may please be written in a legible hand.

Where to submit the notebook?
Once completed, the notebook can be submitted in any of the branches of The Aniruddha’s Universal Bank of Ramnaam. All transactions of the bank will comply with its official mode of operation. The banking year for Aniruddha’s Bank of Ramnaam is from Aniruddha Pournima to Aniruddha Pournima.

Kindly see below the abstract relating to Ramnaam book, from Marathi discourse given by our Dear Sadguru Shri Aniruddha Bapu on 15th March 2007, at New English High School, Bandra

“Ramasya dasyosmyaham”.
To become Ram’s das means “One should follow the path of Hanumanta, the path of Bhibhishan, and the path of Sugriva. Bhibhishan and Sugriva both had families. Hanumanta is a ‘brahmachari’ (bachelor) and so we cannot become like him. But it should be possible to be like Bhibhishan andSugriva. Sugriva disowned his real brother who was evil. Even Bhibhishan did the same thing. Sugriva broke off all relations with all his relatives who were evil. Bhibhishan was the owner of half the kingdom. He gave up that temptation too and surrendered Ram. And he started treading on the moralpath shown Ram. The important thing is that we should always remember Ram. – “Ram Ram tehsumiron kinha.” Whenever possible we should be able to write the Ram Naam book. We should be able to chant Ram Naam. Because when we continuously chant Ram Naam, then on its own, bear this in mind. The persons who are writing this should underline and highlight this – “ that when we try to chant Ram Naam all the time, to write in the Ram Naam book, then Shri Ram accepts the responsibility of making us as His Das. The responsibility no longer remains with us.”

Then we are faced with this question that Bapu, how are we going to become Ram’s das? Rajano do not fear, keep on writing the Ram Naam book, keep on chanting Ram Naam, then Ram will automatically make you His das. In the same manner that He made Bhibhishan and Sugriva his das. He sent Hanumanta to Bhibhishan, and He also sent Hanumanta to Sugriva. Ram by sending His best bhakta(Das) will teach us to become His das? Shree Hanumanta is going to do this. The moment we start writing the Ram Naam book, we start chanting Ram Naam then Ram sends Hanumanta into our lives. That is why on every page of the Ram Naam book, there is a watermark of Hanumanta. The picture is unique and is of a different form. It is of a welcoming form, a form which gives direction the bridge which will connect Ram with His bhaktas. When we keep on chanting RamNaam then our responsibility ends of becoming a das of Ram, Ram Himself initiates us into becoming His Das. He definitely sends Hanumanta into our lives in some form or the other. He definitely sends. “Ramasya dasyosmyaham”.


 
By the chanting of this Name, doing the Poojan of this Name, doing the Naamsmaran of this name we can easily oppose all these evil things happening around us. And our journey on the path of Ram Naam becomes more beautiful. With the blessings of our Guru our journey becomes more joyful. And therefore He keeps assuming different names. But yet He is aware that since man is not fully knowledgeable about this but if he is trying to faithfully chant any one name, or he has tried to do this in his earlier birth, then whenever He takes on a Sagun form and comes on this earth then whatever Name He assumes He tries to give it to all these people who have been associated with Him in their previous births and tries to gather his loving bhaktas around Him. Even a person who has seen Him even once before- and who has done His Naam Smaran at that time, who has had faith in Him, He draws them to Him and takes them near Him. He brings them back onto the path of His Naamsmaran. He then blows his conch after he has drawn all these people close to Him. The rest of them are also His own but they do not have any such feelings for Him. But those people who know that He is the Bhagwant and they really and truly have this belief , they might be in any birth, they may be in any country around this world, not only in India, maybe anywhere in this world, and in that country they have religiously and faithfully done the Naamsmaran of their Bhagwant, of their Parmatma, they have done Bhakti, He will definitely draw them close to Him when He takes on the Sagun form. And once when the Maryada((limits)laid by Him draws close, then the people who come after that have to struggle by themselves. We come across such an instance in Sai Sat Charitra. Das Ganu started his Kirtans from the year 1904, Pravachan also started. Then people started coming Shirdi. Later after that Hemadpant came, Dixit came. Everybody came. But if we attentively read the Saicharitra we will find that Hemadpant and Dixit were given realization by Sainath much before they came to Shirdi. And then at the right time both were drawn to Shirdi. In the words of Saibaba, small sparrows are pulled to the mother bird.. This means babies of the sparrow are tied by a slender thread to their legs and are pulled from anywhere to their mother. In the same manner says Sai that I can pull My man towards Me even if he is across the seven seas. Bhagwant will pull us towards Him. If we have got Sai Naam,we know Krishna Naam, we have in our hands this Ram Naam book, we should realize the meaning of all this that the entire Ram Raksha of Buddha Kaushik Rishi is in our hands. Remember that whoever has the Ram Naam book in his hands and he does not go around just carrying it but makes an effort to write it, then he has understood the true meaning of Ram Raksha. The person who does not carry the Ram Naam book along with him has not understood the Ram Raksha at all.Hemadpant says- “Dev Gitecha jaya na kalala, Gita Kashala Tyala?” That Ramdasi changed. Remember that Ramdasi changed. Do not try to get the Gita; try to win overthe God in the Gita. This Ram Naam book, which we have, it will guide us and take us to Ram’s ‘doot’ (messenger) or He will make that doot enter into our lives. Ram’s doot is Hanumanta. Hanumanta gives us the diksha (lessons) of Dasyatatva (serving the Lord) and then whatever ego that I may have, and the “I” attitude that I may have, all become the ‘das’ (servant) of Ram.

 “Ramasya dasyosmyaham”“Eti Shree BuddhaKaushik Rachitam Shree Ram Raksha Stotra Sampoornam.”

Remember that the Ram Raksha Stotra comes to an end, starts again, keeps going on, but with the accompaniment of the Ram Naam book. It does not matter if we are not able to understand the difficult words in the Ram Raksha.But the most important truth is that Ram is the best amongst all, and the Ram Naam book is the best instrument. If we are only able to understand this truth then I will feel that whatever Bapu has said in all these 12 years has come to a successful end. The book of Ram Naam and the bank of Ram Naam have been created by Me. Remember that I am the owner of the Ram Naam bank. There may be several branches of the Ram Naam bank being opened; the printing may be done anywhere, whatever may happen. But I am the sole owner of the Ram Naam bank. And only I have the power to give loans from this bank. I often say this jokingly, these children also ask,”Bapu, may I press your feet?” and I reply that to press My feet you have to give me Rs. 500 crores. This means that if I had accepted such money than by now I would have become the richest man in this world. When I ask for Rs. 1 crore it means that I want you to write one Ram Naam book, By one crore I do not want any of your jingling money. For me one Ram Naam book is equivalent to Rs. 1 crore.Rs.1 crore means class, means style, means a cultured organization. I truthfully tell you this Rajano, I desire from you crores of such rupees,

The owner of this Ram Naam bank was Me, is Me andforever will remain Me only!!
There are no conditions put by me to make you all partners, in fact partnership is always open. After having opened all this for you, after giving you all this freely, I will not tolerate anyone questioning me. Because I have freely and frankly given everything of mine to you, in spite of being the owner I have kept nothing for Myself, I have dedicated this Bank only for the benefit of My Bhaktas! I have kept it completely open for all those who love Me. And when we have such an open bank near us, without any lock put on it, and most importantly even if we steal any amount of money from it no one is going to call us a thief, bear this in mind. You should know that you can loot as much as you want from this bank and yet no one can call you a thief because this bank belongs to your Father.!!!

Above all the paper from the used notebooks is then used for making environment friendly Ganesha idols.


Ramnaam books shape up as eco-friendly idols



Ramnaam books are recycled to paper pulp to prepare eco-friendly idols, thus combining worship, faith and religion with social awareness in a unique way.
The ingredients used in these idols are paper pieces, natural adhesive called dink, whitening powder, shankha jeera powder, soap and oil mix, adhesive, papier-maché and polish paper. Papier-maché completely dissolves in water without releasing any type of gases.

Members of Shree Aniruddha Aadesh Pathak (SSAP) enjoy support of certain companies, which develop non-hazardous eco-friendly paints. Idols prepared in this fashion dissolve in water within a few hours.

These idols, which were initially prepared only in Bandra are now being created at 46 places all over Maharashtra. SAAP has trained more than 1600 volunteers, who can successfully make these eco-friendly idols. It imparts free training to all interested persons, organizations and schools who want to help save the environment.
