Devraha Baba never took food, and never set foot on the ground. He lived in a unique hut that was raised off the ground by bamboo poles. This rare video footage was recorded for a russian television channel around 1987-1989, so it is not in English.</div>

<div>Swami Trailanga, who was reputed to be nearly three hundred years old when he died, is so renown in India on such a widespread basis, that few Hindus would deny the possibility of truth in any story related to his astounding miracles. If Jesus returned to earth and walked the streets of New York, displaying his divine powers, it would cause the same awe among the people that Trailanga created decades ago as he passed through the crowded lanes of Benares. He was one of the siddhas (perfected beings) that have cemented India against the erosions of time.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ಇನ್ ಟು ದಿ ವೈಲ್ಡ್” ಚಿತ್ರದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಬೇಳೂರರು ಬರೆದಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಈ ಚಿತ್ರ ಒಂದು ಅದ್ಭುತವಾದದ್ದು, ಆತ್ಮವಿಶ್ವಾಸ ಹುಟ್ಟಿಸುವಂಥದ್ದು ; ಏಕಾಂಗಿಯ ಯಾತ್ರೆಯಿಂದ ಕಲಿತುಕೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದಾದ ಜೀವನಪ್ರೀತಿ ಅನನ್ಯ.</p>
<p>ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ಗಲಿಯೆನ್ ಆ ಪ್ರಯಾಣಿಕನನ್ನು ಕಂಡಿದ್ದೇ ಫೇರ್‌ಬ್ಯಾಂಕ್ಸ್‌ನಿಂದ ಐದು ಮೈಲು ದೂರ ಸಾಗಿದ ಮೇಲೆ. ಅಲಾಸ್ಕಾದ ಆ ಮುಂಜಾನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಖಶಿಖಾಂತ ನಡುಗುತ್ತ, ಹೆಬ್ಬೆಟ್ಟು ತೋರುತ್ತ ನಿಂತ ಯುವಕನ ಬೆನ್ನೇರಿದ ಚೀಲದಿಂದ ಬಂದೂಕೊಂದು ಇಣುಕುತ್ತಿತ್ತು. ‘ನಾನು ಅಲೆಕ್ಸ್’ ಎಂದಷ್ಟೆ ಪರಿಚಯಿಸಿಕೊಂಡ ಆತ ಡೆನಾಲಿ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಪಾರ್ಕಿನ ತುತ್ತತುದಿಗೆ ಹೋಗಿ ಕೆಲವು ತಿಂಗಳುಗಳ ಕಾಲ ಇರಬೇಕಿದೆ ಎಂದ. ಅವನ ಚೀಲವೋ 25 &amp; 30 ಪೌಂಡ್ ತೂಗುತ್ತಿದೆಯಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ಅಚ್ಚರಿಪಟ್ಟ. ಇಂಥ ಥಂಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಅಲೆಕ್ಸ್ ಬದುಕುವುದು ಹೇಗೆ ಎಂಬ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ ಅವನನ್ನು ಕಾಡತೊಡಗಿತ್ತು.</p>
<p>ಮೂರು ತಾಸು ಸಾಗಿದ ಮೇಲೆ ‘ಅಲೆಕ್ಸ್’ ಜೇಮ್ಸ್‌ನ ಟ್ರಕ್ಕಿನಿಂದ ಇಳಿದ. ತನ್ನ ಗಡಿಯಾರ, ಬಾಚಣಿಗೆ, 85 ಸೆಂಟ್‌ಗಳಷ್ಟು ಹಣ, ಸ್ಥಳನಕಾಶೆ….. ಎಲ್ಲವನ್ನೂ ಟ್ರಕ್ಕಿನೊಳಗೇ ಬಿಟ್ಟ. ‘ಈ ಸಮಯ ಎಷ್ಟೆಂದು ನನಗೆ ತಿಳಿಯಬೇಕಿಲ್ಲ. ಯಾವ ದಿನವಿದು, ನಾನೆಲ್ಲಿದ್ದೇನೆ ಯಾವುದೂ ನನಗೆ ಗೊತ್ತಾಗಬೇಕಿಲ್ಲ. ಇಂಥ ಯಾವ ಸಂಗತಿಗಳೂ ನನಗೆ ಬೇಕಾಗಿಲ್ಲ’ ಎಂದು ನಸುನಗುತ್ತ ಅಲಾಸ್ಕಾದ ಹಿಮಹಾದಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಡೆದ. ‘ಇಂಥ ಪ್ರದೇಶಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಬೇಡ’ ಎಂದು ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದೆಲ್ಲವೂ ವ್ಯರ್ಥವಾಯಿತು. ಅಪ್ಪ, ಅಮ್ಮಂದಿರಿಗೂ ತನ್ನ ಯೋಜನೆಯನ್ನು ತಿಳಿಸಿಲ್ಲ; ನಿಜ ಹೇಳಬೇಕಂದ್ರೆ ನಾನು ಅವರ ಜೊತೆಗೆ ಕಳೆದ ಮೂರು ವರ್ಷಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಮಾತಾಡೇ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಅಲೆಕ್ಸ್ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿ ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ಮತ್ತಷ್ಟು ಅಚ್ಚರಿಗೆ ಬಿದ್ದು ಮೂರು ತಾಸುಗಳಾಗಿದ್ದವು.</p>
<p>‘ಅಲೆಕ್ಸ್’ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿಕೊಂದ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ಟೋಫರ್ ಜೆ. ಮ್ಯಾಕ್‌ಕ್ಯಾಂಡ್ಲೆಸ್ ಹೀಗೆ ತನ್ನ ಏಕಾಂಗಿತನದ ಯಾತ್ರೆಯನ್ನು ಶುರುಮಾಡಿದ್ದು 1992ರ ಏಪ್ರಿಲ್ 28ರ ಮಂಗಳವಾರ.</p>
<p>ಮೇಲ್ಮಧ್ಯಮ ವರ್ಗದ ಕುಟುಂಬದಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಟ್ಟಿದ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ಗೆ ಬಾಲ್ಯದಿಂದಲೇ ಲಿಯೋ ಟಾಲ್‌ಸ್ಟಾಯ್ ಎಂದರೆ ಪ್ರೀತಿ. ಆತ ಎಂಥ ಸಿರಿವಂತ ಬದುಕನ್ನು ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಅನಾಥರ, ಹತಭಾಗ್ಯರ ಜೊತೆ ಕಳೆದ ಎಂದು ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಬೆರಗುಗಣ್ಣಿಂದ ಓದಿದ್ದ. ತನ್ನ ಪದವಿ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಮುಗಿದ ಕೂಡಲೇ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣವೆಚ್ಚದಲ್ಲಿ ಉಳಿದಿದ್ದ 24 ಸಾವಿರ ಡಾಲರ್‌ಗಳನ್ನು ಆಕ್ಸ್‌ಫರ್ಡ್ ಬರಗಾಲ ಪರಿಹಾರ ನಿಧಿಗೆ ದೇಣಿಗೆಯಾಗಿ ನೀಡಿದ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ಗೆ ಎಂದೂ ಈ ಲೌಕಿಕ ಬದುಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಅಂಥ ಆಕರ್ಷಣೆ ಹುಟ್ಟಲಿಲ್ಲವೇನೋ. ನಿರಭ್ರ ಆಕಾಶವನ್ನು ನೋಡುತ್ತ, ಪ್ರಕೃತಿದತ್ತ ಬದಲಾವಣೆಗಳನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸುತ್ತ, ತನ್ನ ಪ್ರಿಯ ಪುಸ್ತಕಗಳನ್ನು ಓದುತ್ತ ಕಾಲ ಕೂಡುವ, ಬದುಕನ್ನು ತನ್ನದೇ ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಲಿಯುವ ವಿಶಿಷ್ಟ ಯತ್ನಕ್ಕೆ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಹೊರಟಿದ್ದ.</p>
<p>ಹಿಂದೊಮ್ಮೆ, 1990ರಲ್ಲಿ ಅರಿಝೋನಾ ಮರುಭೂಮಿಯ ಹಾದಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ತನ್ನ ಕಾರು ಕೆಟ್ಟು ನಿಂತಾಗ ಇದೇ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ತನ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ಇದ್ದಬದ್ದ 160 ಚಿಲ್ಲರೆ ಡಾಲರ್ ಹಣವನ್ನು ಸುಟ್ಟುಹಾಕಿದ್ದ. ಮುಂದಿನ ತಿಂಗಳುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಅಲೆಮಾರಿಯಾಗಿ ಊರೂರು ಅಲೆದ. ಬಸ್ಸು, ರೈಲು – ಹೀಗೆ ಕಂಡಕಂಡ ವಾಹನಗಳನ್ನು ಬಳಸಿದ; ನಡೆದ. ಮುಂದಿನ ತುತ್ತು ಎಲ್ಲಿ ಸಿಗುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂದು ಗೊತ್ತಿಲ್ಲದ ಆ ಕ್ಷಣಗಳು ಅತ್ಯಂತ ರೋಚಕವಾಗಿದ್ದವು ಎಂದು ಗೆಳೆಯನೊಬ್ಬನಿಗೆ ಕಾರ್ಡ್ ಹಾಕಿದ್ದ.<br />

<div id="attachment_37" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 214px"><a href="http://gurusriom.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/intothewildposter11.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-37" title="Into The Wild" src="http://gurusriom.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/intothewildposter11.jpg?w=204&#038;h=300" alt="" width="204" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Into The Wild</p></div>
<p>ಈಗ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಅಲಾಸ್ಕಾದ ಕಾಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಡೆಯುತ್ತ ಒಂದು ಪಾಳುಬಿದ್ದ ೪೦ರ ದಶಕದ ಬಸ್ಸೊಂದನ್ನು ಕಂಡ. ಅಲ್ಲಿಂದ ಅವನ ಹೊಸ ಬದುಕು ಶುರುವಾಯಿತು. 189 ದಿನಗಳ ಕಾಲ ಹೀಗೆ ಹೊಸಲೋಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಂಚರಿಸಿದ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಆಗಸ್ಟ್ 18 ರಂದು ತಣ್ಣಗೆ ಈ ಲೋಕದಿಂದ ಹೊರನಡೆದ. ಸೆಪ್ಟೆಂಬರ್ 6ರಂದು ಅಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಭೇಟಿ ನೀಡಿದ ಪ್ರವಾಸಿಗರು ಹಾಸಿಗೆ ಚೀಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ನ ದೇಹ ಮಲಗಿದ್ದನ್ನು ಕಂಡರು. 67 ಪೌಂಡ್ ತೂಗುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಆ ದೇಹದಲ್ಲಿ ಏನೂ ಇರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಆತ ಹಸಿವಿನಿಂದ ಸತ್ತ ಎಂದು ವೈದ್ಯರು ಅಭಿಪ್ರಾಯಪಟ್ಟರು. ಆದರೆ ಹಾಗೇನೂ ಅಲ್ಲ, ಆತ ತನ್ನದೇ ನಿರ್ಣಯದಿಂದ ಹೀಗೆ ಹೊರಟುಹೋದ ಎಂದು ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಬದುಕಿನ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ‘ಇನ್ ಟು ದಿ ವೈಲ್ಡ್’ ಎಂಬ ಜೀವನಕಥೆಯನ್ನು ಬರೆದ ಜೋನ್ ಕ್ರಾಕೂರ್ ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾನೆ. ಇನ್ನೇನು ಸತ್ತೇಹೋಗುತ್ತೇನೆ ಎನ್ನುವಾಗ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ತನ್ನನ್ನೇ ಕ್ಯಾಮೆರಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಲಿಕ್ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡ ಚಿತ್ರವನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ. ಅವನ ಮುಖದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗೆ ಮಂದಹಾಸ ಮಿನುಗುತ್ತಿದೆ…..</p>
<p>ತನ್ನ ದಿನಚರಿಯ ಪುಟಗಳನ್ನು ಬಿಟ್ಟುಹೋದ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಹಸಿವಿನಿಂದ ಬಳಲುತ್ತಿದ್ದುದೂ ನಿಜ; ತನ್ನ ಬದುಕು ನಿಜಕ್ಕೂ ಸಂತೋಷಮಯವಾಗಿತ್ತು; ದೇವರಿಗೆ ವಂದನೆಗಳು ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದೂ ನಿಜ. ನಮ್ಮ ಜೈನ ಮುನಿಗಳು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವ ಸಲ್ಲೇಖನ ವ್ರತದಂತೆ ಎಂದು ಸ್ಥೂಲವಾಗಿ ಹೇಳಬಹುದು (ಹಾಗಂತ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಅಹಿಂಸೆಯನ್ನು ಪಾಲಿಸಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಕಾಡತೂಸು ಇರುವವರೆಗೆ ಕೆಲವು ಪ್ರಾಣಿಗಳನ್ನು ಬೇಟೆಯಾಡಿ ತಿಂದ).</p>
<p>ಈ ಪುಸ್ತಕವನ್ನೇ ಆಧರಿಸಿ ಸಿಯಾನ್ ಪೆನ್ 2007 ರಲ್ಲಿ ‘ಇನ್ ಟು ದಿ ವೈಲ್ಡ್’ ಹೆಸರಿನ ಸಿನೆಮಾ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ತನ್ನ ಕೊನೆ ದಿನಗಳನ್ನು ಕಳೆದ ಬಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲೇ, ಅದೇ ತಾಣದಲ್ಲೇ ಈ ಸಿನೆಮಾವನ್ನು ಚಿತ್ರೀಕರಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಅಬ್ಬರದ ಬದುಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ನಾವು ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಕನ್ನಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನೋಡಿಕೊಂಡ ಅನುಭವಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಈ ಸಿನೆಮಾವನ್ನು ಖಂಡಿತ ನೋಡಿ.</p>
<p>ಅಲಾಸ್ಕಾದ ಜನ ಮಾತ್ರ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ನ ಮರಣ ಒಂದು ಮೂರ್ಖ ಘಟನೆ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಕೊನೆಗಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಜನವಸತಿಯತ್ತ ಹೋಗಲು ನಿರ್ಧರಿಸಿದ್ದ. ಆದರೆ ಅವನು ಮೊದಲು ದಾಟಿ ಬಂದ ತಕ್ಲೆನಿಕ ನದಿ ಈಗ ಅಗಲವಾಗಿತ್ತು; ದಾಟುವುದು ದುಸ್ಸಾಹಸವಾಗಿತ್ತು; ಆದರೆ ಕಾಲು ಮೈಲು ದೂರದಲ್ಲೇ ಅದನ್ನು ದಾಟಬಹುದಿತ್ತು ಎಂಬ ವಿಚಾರವೂ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದರೆ ಈತ ಎಂಥ ಚಾರಣಿಗ ಎಂದು ಅಲಾಸ್ಕನ್ನರು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ.<br />
ಏನೇ ಇರಲಿ, ಬದುಕಿನ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನಮಗೂ ಇರುವ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳನ್ನೇ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ಗಂಭೀರವಾಗಿ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಂಡು ಕಾಡು ಮೇಡು ಅಲೆದ; ಗಿಡಗಂಟಿಗಳನ್ನು ತಿಂದ; ಹಸಿವನ್ನು ಆನಂದಿಸಿದ; ಬದುಕಿನ ಕೊನೆಯನ್ನು ತೀವ್ರವಾಗಿ, ಅಷ್ಟೇ ಅಕ್ಕರೆಯಿಂದ ಅನುಭವಿಸಿದ. ಇಂದಿನ ನಾಗರಿಕತೆಯ ಯಾವ ಸಾಧನಗಳೂ ಇಲ್ಲದೆ ಬದುಕುವುದು ಅಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಯಿತು ಎನ್ನುವುದು ಒಪ್ಪಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕಾದ ವಿಷಯವೇ. ಆದರೆ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ ತನ್ನ ನಗುಮುಖದ ಮೂಲಕ ಏನನ್ನೋ ಹೇಳಹೊರಟಿದ್ದಾನೆ ಎನ್ನಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲವೆ?<br />
into the wild<br />
ಬದುಕನ್ನು ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಉತ್ಕಟವಾಗಿ ಪ್ರೀತಿಸುವವರೇ ದುರಂತಕ್ಕೆ ಒಳಗಾಗುತ್ತಾರೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದು ನಮಗೆ ಆಗಿರಬಹುದಾದ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಅನುಭವ. ದೇಶವನ್ನೇ ನುಂಗಿ ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯುವ ಭ್ರಷ್ಟ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಿಗಳು, ಬಾಂಬುಗಳನ್ನು ಸ್ಫೋಟಿಸುವ ಸಂಚನ್ನು ಕ್ಷಣಕ್ಷಣಕ್ಕೂ ಹೂಡುವ ಭಯೋತ್ಪಾದಕರು ಯಾಕಾದರೂ ಸಾಯುವುದಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನಾವೆಲ್ಲ ಹತಾಶೆಯಿಂದ ಗೋಣು ಬಗ್ಗಿಸಿದ್ದೇವೆ. ಬದುಕನ್ನು ಅತಿಯಾಗಿ ಪ್ರೀತಿಸಿದ್ದ ಹೀರೋ ಕೊನೆಗೆ ಸಮುದ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾರಿಗೂ ಸಿಗದಂತೆ ಲೀನವಾಗುವುನ್ನೂ, ಬದುಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾವ ಸುಖವೂ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದೇ ವ್ಯಥಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಹೀರೋಯಿನ್ ಬದುಕಿದ್ದನ್ನೂ ‘ಟೈಟಾನಿಕ್’ ಸಿನೆಮಾದಲ್ಲಿ ನೋಡಿದ್ದೇವೆ.</p>
<p>ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ನ ಹಾಗೆ ಯಾರೂ ಹಸಿವಿನಿಂದ ಸಾಯುತ್ತಲೇ ಬದುಕನ್ನು ಅನುಭವಿಸಬೇಕಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಕ್ರಿಸ್‌ಗೆ ಇದ್ದ ನಿಸರ್ಗದತ್ತ ಜೀವನ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯನ್ನು ನಾವೆಲ್ಲ ಕಲಿಯಬಹುದೇನೋ. ಲೌಕಿಕ ಬದುಕಿನ ಆಯಾಮಗಳನ್ನು ನಾವು ಅಳೆಯುವುದು ಯಾವಾಗ? ಈ ಯಾಂತ್ರಿಕ ಬದುಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಸರ್ಗದ ನಿಯಮಗಳನ್ನು ಅರಿತು, ಪ್ರಕೃತಿಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಬೆರೆಯುತ್ತ ಬದುಕುವ ಪರಿಯನ್ನು ನಾವು ಕಲಿಯುವುದು ಯಾವಾಗ? ನಗರೀಕರಣದ, ಕಾಂಕ್ರೀಟೀಕರಣದ ಜಂಜಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಇರುವ ಬದಲು ಬಯಲಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಕೂತು ಹೊಸ ಗಾಳಿಯನ್ನು ಉಸಿರಾಡುವುದು ಯಾವಾಗ?</p>

<p>I am very much interested in knowing about the great saints/scholars who have lived in and around India.</p>
<p>I am very curious to do research on them at free time. Here i had come across Dayanand Saraswati, about his life.</p>
<p>I have posted about some information about this great person.</p>
<p>Tankara was a town in Gujrat. There lived a wealthy Brahmin named Karshanji Lalji Tiwari. This good and just man had faith in religious practices. In 1824 a son was born to the couple Karshanji and his wife Amrithbai. The son was named Moolashankar. According to the custom of the place, he was also called Dayaram. This child was to become famous as Maharshi Dayananda. As a child Dayanand was brought up under the strictest Brahmin rule, and at the age of eight was invested with the Sacred Thread (Upanayna). When he was fourteen his father took him to the temple on the occasion of Shivaratri. Dayanand had to fast and keep awake the whole night in obedience to Lord Shiva. In the night he saw a rat nibbling the offerings to the God and running over Shiva`s body. He tried to find out from elders why this &#8220;God Almighty&#8221; could not defend himself against the menace of petty mice, for which he was admonished. This incident shattered Daya Nand Saraswati`s faith in the idol worship and Dayananda starting questioning traditional beliefs of Hinduism and inquiring about God in early childhood. Thereafter he refused to participate in the religious rites for the rest of his life.</p>
<p>Dayanand Saraswati was disillusioned with classical Hinduism and became a wandering monk. He learned Panini`s Grammar to understand the Sanskrit texts. At this juncture, Moolashankar came across Swami Poornananda, a profound scholar and sanyasi. The Swamiji initiated the young man into the holy orders. Moolashankar became Swami Dayananda Saraswathi. For the next fifteen years he wandered all over the country in the search of a guru. On the heights of the Himalayan regions, his life was in danger again and again. He had to stroll day and night in forests where wild beasts roamed. And in the midst of his wanderings his devotion to his goal was tested, too. Then he came to know that perfect yogis lived in the dense forest near the source of the river Narmada. Without caring for the distance Dayananda walked hundreds of miles towards the south.</p>
<p>In 1860, he found his guru and mentor Swami Virjanand Saraswati at Mathura. He was blind. But he was the living form of enlightenment and could clear all the doubts of his disciples, quoting passages from all the scriptures. Dayananda felt that this meeting with the great genius had fully rewarded all his hardships for fifteen years. He gladly surrendered himself at the feet of the great master. Dayanand Saraswati underwent rigorous training under Swami Virjanand Saraswati. Virjanand Saraswati gave him the name Dayanand and as gurudakshina extracted promise from Dayanand that he would devote his life for revival of Hinduism. With his extraordinary devotion and sense of service Dayananda soon became the most beloved disciple of Virjanand Saraswati.</p>
<p>Dayanand Saraswati believed that Hinduism has been corrupted by divergence from the founding principles of the Vedas and misled by the priesthood for the priests` self-aggrandisement. He extensively traveled the country challenging the religious scholars and priests to discussions and won repeatedly on the strength of his arguments. He made fiery speeches condemning the caste system, idolatry, and child marriages. Dayanand Saraswati being the first leader in the field of theology welcomed the advances of sciences and technology. To him, the Vedas as the source book contain the seed of science, and to him, the Vedas advocate the philosophy of dynamic realism. He pointed out the shortcomings of every one of them without Supporting or opposing any particular religion. He told the people &#8220;Idol worship is not mentioned in the Vedas. The rational mind cannot accept idol worship. God is everywhere God has no shape or form.&#8221; He bitterly criticized the harmful and wicked customs that have come down through the centuries. He explained the greatness of the religion preached in the Vedas. He advocated the ideal age for a girl to be between 16 and 24, and for men between 25 and 40.</p>
<p>Dayanand Saraswati founded Arya Samaj in Mumbai in 1875 to promote social service. Swami Dayananda`s creation, the Arya Samaj, is a unique component in Hinduism. Arya Samaj, postulates in principle equal justice for all men and all nations, together with equality of the sexes. The Arya Samaj condemns idol-worship, animal sacrifices, ancestor worship, pilgrimages, priestcraft, offerings made in temples, the caste system, untouchability, child marriages. It repudiates a hereditary caste system, and only recognizes professions or guilds, suitable to the complementary aptitudes of men in society. To many people, the Arya Samaj aims to be a &#8220;universal church&#8221; based on the authority of the Vedas.He gave new interpretations to reform the stagnant Hindu thought through his book &#8220;Satyaprakash&#8221; (The Light of Truth). He profusely quoted the Vedas and other religious texts to insist that salvation was not the only motto of a Hindu or Arya, as it was believed to be. Working for a noble cause was important to lead a fruitful worldly life. Thus salvation according to him was possible through social service.</p>
