Today morning, we were blessed with the divine opportunity to have darshan of Pujya Mahant Swamiji’s pooja. It was a moment filled with immense peace and spiritual elevation. Watching a saint of such purity and devotion perform pooja is itself a form of silent teaching that inspires everyone around to strengthen their own faith and devotion. Pujya Mahant Swamiji is not an ordinary saint; he is a living embodiment of simplicity, discipline, and unwavering devotion to Bhagwan Shree Swaminarayan and Guru Parampara. His presence radiates calmness and positivity, and his pooja is performed with utmost sincerity, focus, and sanctity, reflecting his deep connection with God.
Every action during the pooja — be it offering flowers, lighting the lamp, chanting mantras, or performing aarti — is carried out with a sense of surrender and love. Witnessing this divine routine today reminded us of the importance of starting our day with remembrance of God and with gratitude for all His blessings. Many devotees, students, and staff gathered quietly, maintaining an atmosphere of reverence. The sound of the bell, the fragrance of incense sticks, and the soft chanting of Swamiji created an ambience that made everyone feel closer to the divine.
Pujya Mahant Swamiji is known for his pious lifestyle. Despite being a respected Mahant with immense responsibilities, he lives with utmost humility and simplicity. His daily pooja is not just a ritual but a way to set an example for all devotees on how to maintain discipline and purity in one’s spiritual practices. His teachings emphasize the importance of faith, obedience, service, and living a life rooted in Dharma. After the pooja, Swamiji blessed everyone present with kind words and a gentle smile that filled hearts with warmth and strength.
Such moments remind us that saints like Pujya Mahant Swamiji are true guiding lights in our lives. Their presence alone uplifts our thoughts and actions. Today’s darshan will remain etched in our hearts as a source of inspiration to lead a life devoted to God, filled with good deeds and pure thoughts.
