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

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...

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...
