Parna and Blessings: A Celebration of Devotion and Discipline

Today marked a sacred and joyous occasion at Gurukul—Parna, a deeply meaningful moment for a devoted group of students who undertook the Brahmacharya Vrat and lived the life of Bhagatjis with unwavering discipline, faith, and spiritual focus.

Choosing the path of Brahmacharya in today’s fast-paced world is an act of immense courage and commitment. These young seekers embraced a lifestyle centered around simplicity, purity, and devotion. Their daily routine reflected their dedication: rising early for puja, immersing themselves in satsang, studying shastras, and engaging wholeheartedly in seva.

As Bhagatjis, they were tested—not just externally, but internally. Yet they remained steady, their hearts anchored in Bhagwan and guided by the wisdom and blessings of the guru. Their journey was not merely one of renunciation, but one filled with deep love, clarity of purpose, and spiritual strength.

Parna, the act of concluding their vrat, is not an end—it is a powerful new beginning. It signifies the completion of a sacred vow and the start of a lifelong commitment to bhakti, seva, and spiritual growth. With the blessings of the Swamijis and the heartfelt admiration of the Gurukul community, these Bhagatjis now step into the next phase of their journey, enriched and inspired.

🙏 To our Bhagatjis—your sacrifice, focus, and devotion are a light to us all.

Jay Swaminarayan!
