New Year Message – 2007 by Pujya Pitaji Maharaj

On the auspicious eve of the New Year-2007, I wholeheartedly congratulate each one of you. Let Lord Rama’s Canopy of Grace always cover all of you! Let the Spiritual Master himself guide you on your Spiritual Path!


Let the recitation of the Holy Name become the cardinal quality of your life. The easiest and the surest pathway of God-realization is the purgation or purification of Mind and Heart. A person whose heart is holy & pure, his conduct and thought tend to become pure and noble. Jaap (repetition of the Holy Word) after sweeping off our internal darkness, makes our heart pure and transparent. As we accord importance to Naam (Holy Name), Jaap (repetition of the Holy Word) and Satsang( Congregation) in our life,paths of spiral progress and spiritual development open up of their own. As our Love and Faith in God increases, our faith in Jaap and Simran becomes stronger and stronger.

The devotees who are alive to their spiritual goal or progress, God Himself showeth the path to them. Look into yourselves. If your mental-weaknesses, anger, worries and fears are decreasing, if your doubts are resolving of their own, & if the quality of fearlessness is increasing; consider that you are marching on the path of spiritual progress. Only a peaceful heart can attain the Divine Light. Let God be helpful in your spiritual devotion and dedication! Let your life be successful and spiritually awake!


“Deep Devotion, deep Love and firm Faith in Sri Ram,
Recitation & reiteration of the Holy Name
are the quintessence of True Worship”


Let the New Year-2007 be a Harbinger of Well-being!
Let the Grace of thy Master (Guru) and Lord Rama continue to wrap you up!

Your Well-wisher

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...
