Sri Sri Satyanarayan Panchali which was written by our Sri
Gurudev bears lot of significance for all his disciples and devotees all over
the world! If anyone read the Panchali and try to understand the indepth
meaning of the stanzas written they will see
that each one of the stanza is very meaningful! Like for example in the
panchali there is one stanza which goes like this : Putrarthi re Putro Dey,
Dhonarthi re Dhon, Doyarthi Sodai sebe Shottero Choron!! It means that Lord Sri
Satyanarayan grants the material world’s desires to its devotees like child to
one who wants child or wealth to one who desires wealth!! But now after that
the message written bears a very very deep significant meaning!! Doyarthi sodai
sebe shottero choron!!! Can you all understand this??? It means and refers to
those disciples who don’t want the material desires and one who instead of
these pray for the mercy & devotion of Lord Sri Satyanarayan means they are
Doyarthi and they always want to serve the holy lotus feet of Truth means the
Lord Sri Satyanarayan Himself!!! Those devotees only want pure devotion at the
holy feet of Lord and thus sodai sebe shottero choron!! Like these there are
various other stanzas also.. say for example another place it is written as
Bishnushorma Bhishnupriya Shottonarayon, Bhokto Bhokti Bhogoban Tino Rupo Hon!!
Here if all of you see carefully that each one of the names denotes the
identity which have been mentioned in the next line as Bishnushorma represents
the Bhakta means the devotee, Bishnupriya represents the Bhaktidevi herself
means devotion and last but not the least Bhogoban means the Lord Sri
Satyanarayan himself!! And all these three identities are actually same which
have taken different forms to glorify the Lord!! The holy Panchali actually
starts with the salutations in sanskrit for pleasing the Lord Sri Sri
Satyanarayan!! Like Tadiyang Vastu Govinda Tubhameva Samarpaye, Grihananu
Samukho Bhutva Prasida Purushottama which means that whatever is being offered
to you has been actually given by only you as you are Lord & Owner of
everything in this whole world and thus O Lord Purushottam or Govind please be
happy on us and bless us!! The Panchali where on the one side glorify the
importance of all the pilgrimage places of our country whether it is vrindavan,
kashi, kamakhya, nabadwip etc. in the stanzas Kamakhare kori noti dhormorajo
juta, or Gokule Govindo bondo gobordhonodhari or Nomro hoiya Nobodwipe bondibo
Nimai or Golok probhuti bondo choturdosho puri etc. on the other side it also
glorify the greatness of brahmins, saints, gurus, mohants, vaishnavs or
goswamis, yogis both gyanyogis and karmyogis in the stanza Bhaisnobo Brahmon
Joti Mohantero Gon, Jogi Nyasi Kormi Gyani Goswami Choron.. Similary it also
sings the glories of the sacred rivers of our country like Ganga, Yamuna in the
stanzas Gonga adi Tirthokhetre hoiya dondobot or Brindabono Jomuna di bihareo
sthol.. The holy Panchali also says about the devotees of Sri Chaitanya
Mahaprabhu like Nityananda Prabhu, Birbhadra, Srirup Goswami Sri Advaita
Acharya, Sri Gadadhar Pandit, Sribas Pandit & other devotees also etc. in
the stanzas Pronomibo Nod Nodi Nodero Nimai, Birobhodro Nityanondo Sri Rup
Gosai and Adoito Acharjo bondo Godadhor Pondit, Bondiya Sribas adi Bhoktogono
Geet!! All these salutations and stanzas for glorifying the pilgrimage places,
sacred rivers, gurus & saints or brahmins and last but not the least the
devotees is a teaching or instruction given by our holy Sri Guru to always give
them proper and due respect all your whole life and being a disciple of our
Gurudev we must follow them instead of making fun or criticising them!! One more
aspect I would like to bring all of you that most of the devotees of
our beloved Gurudev were from undivided Bengal those days and which is
why quite naturally there were devotees from the both the communities of
Hindu and Muslim. Infact, it is said that Sri Sri Thakur’s very first
disciple was a great muslim devotee named as Sadhu Cherag Ali with whom
our Gurudev had established a relationship of Taloi called in
east-bengal dialect which refers to a lovely family relationship!! Even
today in bangladesh the descendants of Sadhu Cherag Ali are following
the orders given by Sri Sri Thakur and are celebrating the Sri
Satyanarayan festivals every year!! So, in the panchali also we find
several references to the muslim community as Sri Satyanarayan has been
referred to as Satya Pir for them.. Infact, the panchali starts with
Shotto Shotto Shotto Pir, Sorbo Siddhi Data.. or Korano Ketabo Ar Koloma
Sonhoti, Sufi Khan Pirero Paye Prochuro Pronoti.. or Joy Joy Shotto Pir
Shonatono Dostogir etc.. Now in all these stanzas, Sri Sri Thakur has
very beautifully glorified the greatness of Lord Sri Satyanarayan who is
also Sri Satya Pir and other pious matters related with muslim
religion.. But apart from this in the panchali He has very clearly
mentioned that it is only He who has Himself advented as Lord
Satyanarayan and also to save his disciples from the Hindu community
from the atrocities done by the followers of muslim community who are
misguided.. like Kolite Jobono Dusto, Hoindobi Korile Noshto, Dekhiya
Rohim Hoila Ram! It is very clear here… Jobon word very obviously is
being referred to the misguided followers of muslim community and
Hoindobi refers to the followers of hindu community..so one who had came
as Rahim has now came as Ram to save the innocent hindus from the
muslims and it has actually happened many times and even now it is
happening!! One incident we had mentioned here earlier in this blog where how Sri Sri Thakur had saved one of his disciple at Bangladesh
from getting killed through these same stanza of panchali!! He has also
referred very clearly that this panchali has been written by Him only
in the stanzas Grontho Sango Hoilo Birochilo Dwijo Ram, Shobe Hori Dhoni
Koro Mojura Selam!! Here Dwijo means Brahmin and all of you know that
our Gurudev was a Brahmin by caste..Grontho Sango Hoilo means the holy
panchali has now been ended which has been narrated by Brahmin Ram (our
Lord) and in the concluding note also He referred to both hindu and
muslim communities as Hori Dhoni for Hindu and Mojura Selam for the
muslims!! Jai
Sri Ram!!
