'Hara hara, bomb bomb’ or ‘Hara Hara Vyom Vyom’, which one?

Namaskar,
In India, one dogma is quite prevalent with regards to the worship of Lord Shiva. In trying to satisfy Lord Shiva, dogmatic followers first pour holy water on certain stones as if by this way Lord Shiva will get the water that He needs. They think that Lord Shiva will be pleased. And while doing this penance those dogmatic Hindus chant, 'Hara hara, bomb bomb'. All the common people know this slogan well. They have heard it always in such religious practices. Because ritualistic devotees call and address Lord Shiva as 'Hara hara, bomb bomb’  when they are involved in this type of penance.

This ritual is especially common in Bihar. Followers from the surrounding states come and and they wear special saffron cloth from head to toe, irrespective whether they are male or female and regardless of what type of clothes they are wearing. On this occasion everything they wear must be the same color: saffron. And by this ritual, the whole railway and all forms of transportation become full of saffron as millions and millions of people are wearing saffron and only saffron.


Sastaunga pranam and then getting up and then
advancing forward and then again doing satsaunga


So they travel to the holy river Gaunga (Ganges) and take holy water and begin their pilgrimage in Sultanganj to the temple far away in Deoghar. Some get there by walking; some run 100km to temple in which case it takes a few days. And some special followers get there by lying down in sastaunga pranam and then getting up and then advancing forward and then again doing satsaunga pranam. In this way they hope to please Lord Shiva by their strong penance by making the 100km journey in this way. In which case it may takes weeks and weeks to reach Lord Shiva's “holy” temple in Deoghar, Bihar. All this is done in the beginning month of the Indian rainy season. So this ritual goes on for 1 month. Along the way all those dogmatic followers repeat the mantra: 'Hara hara, Bomb bomb'. This dogma is quite common and every year several million dogmatic people participate in the ritualistic worship of Lord Shiva and they repeat again and again: 'Hara hara, bomb bomb'.

But the interesting thing is that they do not know what is meant by the term 'bomb'. As we know bombs and such type of weapons had not yet been invented when this mantra was first started. But just in their ritualistic way, they all call out-- 'Bomb, bomb'. They do not call 'Vyom, vyom'. So nobody is aware about the reality. Here Baba has made it clear what this mantra is & what is the proper pronunciation.

Below Baba solves this riddle about bomb bomb. The common people do not understand that bomb is not correct and that really vyom is correct. But Baba has explained the truth and solved this problem.

Baba says, "He who takes away all your sins, He who takes away all our umbers and cumbers is Hara. He is Hara, because He takes away all your sins, all your propensities. Now, This Hara. One cannot attain salvation without coming in contact with this Hara. He [the aspirant] will have to pass through the realm of Hara because Hara is the sublimest rank of His Cognitive Self and that's why in ancient times it was a system, rather a usage amongst the spiritual aspirants to chant a mantra, which was a very favourite mantra : Hara Hara Vyom Vyom."  

"Think of that Hara, think of that Hara, He will take away  all your sins; think of that Hara, Meditate on that Hara. Hara Hara Vyom Vyom. Vyom is the subtlest form of matter. Ether is called Vyoma i.e., your mind should go from crude towards subtle. In the realm of physicality it will think of Vyoma and in the realm of spirituality it will, think of Hara' "Hara Hara Vyom Vyom, Hara Hara Vyom Vyom".  (1)

Wrongdoers watch out: blows boomeranged and
ultimately the evil forces were annihilated
Ananda Vanii #41

Ananda Vanii states, History bears testimony that whenever a person states the absolute truth in any sphere of life, whether it be spiritual, social, economic or otherwise; sought clarification of doubts or protested against injustice and wrongs, the evil forces forthwith plotted against the person, administered poison, slandered and assaulted that person with rage, misused authority and mercilessly dealt blow after blow; but the blows boomeranged and ultimately the evil forces were annihilated by those very blows. Remember, by an unalterable decree of history, the evil forces are destined to meet their final doom.(1)

Note 1: The above is one of Baba’s original Ananda Vaniis. These original and true Ananda Vaniis are unique, eternal guidelines that stand as complete discourses in and of themselves. They are unlike Fake Ananda Vaniis.
