Delhi – July 21, 2024: The spiritual landscape of Rohini, Delhi, was vibrant with devotion and divine energy as thousands of devotees, disciples, and seekers gathered for the 4-day Guru Purnima Mahotsav, held from July 18 to July 21, 2024.
The event was graced by the esteemed presence of His Holiness Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj and Dr. Archika Didi, whose guidance created an atmosphere of profound blessings and spiritual bliss.
The 4-day Mahotsav featured spiritually enriching programs designed to deepen the connection between Guru and Shishya.
The program was organized at The Golden Decor (Shakti Tent), Rohini, Sector 12, Delhi.
The founder and spiritual guide of Vishwa Jagriti Mission, His Holiness Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj, inaugurated the program on 18th July.
Addressing the inauguration ceremony, Param Pujya Maharajshri said, “Everything in this world brings attachment to humans, and the one who is detached from this illusion, gets connected to God. Guru shows the way to live without attachment. Devotees address God by various names. God is omnipresent, and He is omnipotent. The dynamism in the world is due to God alone. God is the power behind every change in the world.”
Maharajshri also said, “People should live life with such realization of God and also with the spirit of seva, and it is only with the inspiration of Guru that a person introspects and adopts the path of self-improvement and spiritual development.”
During the program, Vice President of Vishwa Jagriti Mission and Yoga Guru, Dr. Archika Didi Ji, said, “They are fortunate whose consciousness is awakened by the grace of a Guru. Fragrant flowers of peace and happiness bloom in their lives.”
Didi Ji further said, “Whatever seeds we plant on the earth, we plant them in a particular season. Similarly, to get the fruit of happiness, a special kind of season has to be created within us. Awaken the season of faith in God and the Guru within you. Make it a habit to do every task happily and love your work. Try to bring novelty to your work every day. There is novelty in nature; connect with nature. Improve your life by getting inspired daily by the holy scriptures and Guru.”
In addition to various spiritual practices, the Mahotsav also included discourses by His Holiness Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj and Dr. Archika Didi.
Their teachings provided deep insights into the essence of Guru Purnima and its significance in a devotee’s spiritual journey.
The Special Guru Purnima Program on 21st July, a highlight of the event, brought together various devotional activities. It also involved live Purnima Darshan, which delighted devotees and seekers.
