From Dependence to Independence - Mr. B K Misra

Posted on: Apr 12, 2018

Swami so fondly asked us not to follow Him, for we can't walk in His steps; not to walk in front of Him, for He won't walk in our steps, but to ‘walk with Me and be My friend’.

Posted on: Apr 04, 2018

It was actually a Government-owned land which was supposedly meant for the construction of the DRCS (Deputy Registrar of Cooperative Societies) office. However, the land was always water-logged and was thus unused. Why not take over the pond and convert it into the land for building the school?

At the time of coronation, the first pronouncement that Rama made was quite unique and remarkable. He said: "If today this auspicious coronation is taking place, who is responsible for it?

How Saint Manikkavasagar Melted Into Shiva

Posted on: Feb 12, 2018

Vadhavooraar could relate to the man's plight as a few minutes before he too was in the same position. So immediately he stepped out and called out to this desperate man and welcomed him to join him on the portico.

Actually there was not much space there as it was a small porch. The man wondered how two people could rest there. Seeing his worried face, Vadhavooraar immediately comforted him saying, “This portico may not have enough space for two people to sleep but it has enough place for two people to sit. So don't worry. We will be comfortable.”

Spirituality: the Inward Path

Posted on: Jan 18, 2018


Every tradition talks of the deep connect between the individual and God. ‘Man is a spark of the Divine’, declares the Gita. ‘Man is made in the image of God’, reiterates the Bible.

The goal of every spiritual endeavour is to realise that God is within us, and that separation is the ultimate illusion. When we overcome ignorance, we visualize the inner Divine Effulgence, and this is the essence of the spiritual journey.
