Worship God with heart that is true…
In this noisy and restless world, the most profound guidance often comes from the simplest truths: Find a true saint, and worship God with a sincere heart. The presence of a genuine Sant—a spiritually awakened soul—can change the entire course of one’s life. Their words carry weight, their wisdom shines light. When we place our trust in their guidance and bring God’s name into our daily actions, even the deepest sins of our past begin to dissolve—burning away like dry leaves in a fire of divine grace. But this journey is not just about rituals or words—it’s about awakening to [Read More…]
This human birth is rare and dear…
This human birth is precious beyond words—a divine gift not easily won again. The scriptures and sages remind us: we will not get this chance again so easily. And yet, how often we squander it in pride, distractions, and the endless pursuit of worldly success.

Our attachments in this world—parents, spouse, children, friends—while dear and loving, cannot accompany us [Read More…]
The fool died while alive…
There’s a kind of death that happens long before the body breathes its last — a spiritual death brought on by a life lived in ignorance and misdirection. The verse “Bhajyo nahi Bhagwan murakh jivata maryo” strikes at this very core, describing the fool who never turned to God and thus died while still alive. Life, when lived without spiritual awareness or purpose, becomes hollow no matter how busy or full it appears on the surface. Driven by greed, many chase wealth and pleasure without a second thought for the consequences. The soul grows numb as one commits sin just [Read More…]
