A guy who trode different path to seek the true bliss
The Mahakumbh is a once-in-a-lifetime event, occurring only once every 144 years. Unfortunately, I am not fortunate enough to attend and experience the profound spiritual energy of such a massive gathering. From what I’ve learned online, this Mahakumbh is attended by Babas of an extraordinary caliber, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the event. Speaking of Babas, one name that’s been gaining tremendous popularity online is “IIT Baba.” What makes him fascinating is his unique journey. He pursued Aeronautical Engineering at IIT Mumbai, one of the most prestigious institutions in India, where students dedicate countless hours to secure admission. The job packages offered after graduation from such institutes…

ONE DAY IN SHRI KRISHNA’S DWARKA
Dwarka has my heart and soul. With the mere feeling of Shri Krishna this place takes any person like me into trance of period he spent here. Let it be ruling, fighting for righteousness, saving people from Danavs and many more such incidences. Started on Saturday 2.03.2024 in Minibus with a total of 16 people on board. We reached Dwarka around 8 but since rooms were not ready as usual check-ins are at 11: 00 AM. We decided to visit one of the places called Charan Ganga.

Dakor- The place where Shri Krishna settled for devotee.
Dakor Dakor- Where Ranchodrai chose to live I feel many a times that God is always misjudged. Show him love and he will cross yugas to be with you. Shower him with devotion and he will show you his real side. He is no one else but Shri Krishna. It is kalyug and it is said that Gods doesn’t show up easily as kalyug is the period where kali has taken over. People in this yuga are more towards material pleasure, they commit crime more and they are less into spirituality. They are simple mortals who are far away from the real meaning of life and do not beyond in…

Bheems Control
Ekadashi is considered to be the most auspicious day and when it comes to fasting it is to be done strictly even without water for the whole day and night which means for twenty-four hours. he was very guilty but he did not have a solution. On one such holy day, Bheem approached Ved Vyasji- the writer of Mahabharat and asked, " Grandfather, I can do everything that is supposed to be done on Ekadashi. I give charity to the poor and brahmins, I donate clothes but, I am not able to observe fast, which leaves me with guilt in my gut".

Gandhi nu Gaam in Kutch – A village that stood the test of time
It was that murky day of 26th January 2001, I was sitting there learning for my exams and my house started crackling and bursting. Unable to understand what it was, I heard cries and shouts outside my house. It was a massive earthquake. Gujarat was struck by the upsetting earthquake and everything was scattered into tits and bits. Not only belongings but living beings too. Affected by this gargantuan natural anger, was one village in Kutch called Ludiya. It was wholly shattered into pieces and it was problematic to get that intact. An NGO from Ahmedabad joined hands together with the people of the village and established the village again.

Mahudi – A religious shrine not to missed in Gujarat
Prasad is pious and should not be wasted. So, though offered at minimal cost, make sure to take how much you can have. Now, what is unusual about this ritual? Now, whenever we visit a certain sacred place, we think of carrying prasad back home so that it can be offered to those who did not visit along. But it is not the case with this Sukhadi prasad.
