Chandanbala

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess named Vasumati. She was the daughter of king Dadhivahan and queen Dharini of the city of Champapuri.

One day a war broke out between the King Dadhivahan and the king of nearby Kaushambi. King Dadhivahan was defeated in the war and so, he had to run away in despair. When princess Vasumati and queen Dharini learned that they had lost the war, they also decided to escape. While they were running away from town a soldier from the enemy's army spotted and captured both of them. Princess Vasumati and her mother were scared. They didn't know what the soldier would do to them. He told the queen that he would marry her, and that he would sell Vasumati. Upon hearing this, the queen went into shock and died. The soldier immediately felt sorry for his remarks and decided not to make any more comments. He took Vasumati to Kaushambi to sell her.

In the earliest yuga (era) of Sata-yuga, a king named Manu was performing severe penance for thousands of years. One day as he was performing ablutions with river water, a small fish came into his hands and just as he was about to throw the fish back into the river, the fish requested the king to save its life. Heeding its request, the king put the fish into a jar of water but the fish started growing and the jar was not big enough for it. Then the king threw it into the river, but it soon it outgrew the river and the king then threw it into Ganges and then into the ocean.

Alvar Sant

Sant

Alvar means one who is "immersed" in the experience of God, the omnipresent mysterious One. Tradition reckons 12 Alvars. They come from all walks of life and all strata of society and include in their ranks one woman. Between the fifth and ninth century, in the Tamil-speaking region of South India, these saints revitalized the Indian religious milieu, sparking a renewal of devotional worship throughout the subcontinent. Traveling from place to place, from temple to temple, from holy site to holy site, they composed exceedingly beautiful poetry to their Divine Beloved, Vishnu, as an expression of their love for Him. Anyone can see why their poetry was so attractive; at once both impassioned and philosophical, their words cut across all barriers of caste and class, attracting all to their faith. In doing so, they sculpted a new religious heritage of intensely emotional bhakti, or love of the Divine, whose impact is still felt today in the Indian religious life.

Baba Kinaram

Sant

Aghoracharya Baba Kinaram

This lineage had continued in a sleepy state, as if embers under ashes। In the 16th century Baba Kinaram after receiving darshan with Guru Dattatreya in Girnar mountains, awakened it for the welfare of the humanity at large – embers hidden under the ashes began to glow again। In the presence of Baba Kinaram spontaneous relief was received by the suffering, answers to questions came automatically, and mind experienced calmness naturally. One would experience the higher Self merely by being in his presence.

He Nath Jodi Haath - Lyrics:

He naath jodi haath paye premthi sau mangiye
Sharan male sachu tamaru ae rudaythi mangiye...

Je jiv avyo aap pase charanma apnavjo
Parmatma ae atmane shanti sachi aapjo...

Vadi karmana yoge kari je kudma ae avtare
Tyan poorna preme O prabhuji apni bhakti kare
Lakh chorasi bandhanone lakshma lai kapjo
Parmatma ae atmane shanti sachi aapjo...

Susampati suvichar sat karmano daee vaarso
Janamo janam sat sangthi kirtar par utarjo
Aa lokne parlokma tav prem rag rag vyapjo
Parmatma ae atmane shanti sachi aapjo...

Male moksh ke sukh swargna asha ure evi nathi
Diyo deh durlabh manvino bhajan karva bhavthi
Sachu batavi roop Shree Ranchhod rudye sthapjo
Parmatma ae atmane shanti sachi aapjo...

Here is the english meaning of the prayer (not word to word translation)

O Lord! we are praying to you
from the bottom of our hearts that please take us in and lend us shelter (meaning give us your true devotion),
A soul which has come to you please lend him shelter
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.

While, he might get his birth in a lineage(royal or poor) based on his own karma,
We wish that he truly devotes himself to you o great God.
Consider it as your target to liberate the soul from the cycle of 84 millions rebirths(it is said in hindu mythology that a soul goes through
84 millions different species of life before finally being born as a human; it is strongly believed that only the almighty has the
power to liberate the soul from this cycle)
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.

O Lord! bring him pious wealth, wisdom and pious companionship
and bring him through all the troubles with true devotion towards you.
May your love spread through both worlds (earth and the other world where we go after death).
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.

We are not hoping to find salvation or the pleasures of heaven for that soul,
if he finds rebirth as a human(which is rare), devotion(here prayers) towards you should be his aim
show him your true mystic form and we hope that your true form (meaning devotion) gets established
in his heart (during his rebirth as a human)
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.
O great soul (GOD) please give him (the soul) the eternal piece.
