The Bel Pan

Today is Monday when I'm writing this blog. Since a year now I'm offering Bel Pan/Bel Patra - The Divine Leaf - to Lord Shiva. So normally today, I went to the Mandir and offered Bel Pan to Lord Shiva and joined my hands and started praying. There was one lady behind me who was waiting for her turn to offer whatever she had to offer to Lord Shiva. But as soon as I offered Bel Pan to Lord Shiva and moved aside and started praying, the lady behind me removed the Bel Pan offered by me to Lord Shiva and offered water to the Shivling. 

That was rude! Inhuman! As I was in the Mandir, I kept calm and continued praying to Lord Shiva and after praying, kept the Bel Pan again on Shivling. But when I came home I wrote this blog - in fire burning inside me - for actions of "THAT WOMAN". 

And this didn't happen to me for the first time. It happened earlier as well. That lady removed everyone's offered Bel Pan and kept her Bel Pan and then offered water to the Shivling. 

My point is - Let the Bel Pan stay on Shivling atleast for some hours. But no, as soon as her turn came to offer, she immediately removed whatever I offered to the Shivling i.e. The Bel Pan. 

That was hurtful. I could have just yelled at her and asked her about her actions but then it would instill negative energy around the Mandir. So I kept calm, came home and wrote this blog.

To all those reading this. Remember one thing. God never asked us to come visit him and offer some flowers or water or other divine things. Even if you pray wholeheartedly at home, HE will surely listen to your prayer. Visiting mandir and hurting other devotee's sentiments will never make Lord Shiva happy or for that matter any other God. 

So stay kind and humble to each every devotee who visits the Mandir. Spread positivity and remove all the negativity present in you.

The Kid : KBC JUNIORS

Image
I was unaware of this kid until I got one reel about this kid and thereafter leaving one reel every other reel was about this kid; hating him for misbehaving with THE BIG B - SIR AMITABH BACHCHAN JI. No doubt what he did was wrong. No doubt what he spoke was wrong. No doubt he was impatient and just wanted to finish the game as early as possible. But you must have seen the only part of him misbehaving with Sir Amitabh Bachchan ji but if you closely watch the whole episode, you will see that after when he realised that he would take nothing from the game, he got sad and felt guilty about his actions and reactions towards Sir Amitabh Bachchan ji and the game. Also his parents were feeling ashamed about his acts in the game. But after the game he requested Sir Amitabh Bachchan ji to take a picture with him and then he went home.  So what I want to say is, he was just a kid, mere 10 year old boy who got an opportunity to play with Sir Amitabh Bachchan ji. He just got overex...

AN UNFORGETTABLE FORTUNATE DAY OF MY LIFE

Image
...AND I'll never ever FORGET this DAY. 23rd May, 2026, The biggest yet influential day of my life.  Some months ago, I had published my book, "She looked at me the same way I looked at her" on Amazon and Flipkart and my Mom having a very deep interest in reading, One day, went to her Library (Railway Library) and introduced me, my book and my writing passion to the librarian. And the librarian was, Anil Sir, a name I would never forget in my entire life. First of all, he was so amazed by my work and I just can't imagine his reaction which Mom had personally experienced. He then gave a number of an influential Poet, Sir Poet and Writer Vinay Sharma. Then as soon as she came home and gave me their numbers (Anil sir and Vinay sir) I immediately saved them and dropped a message to Sir Poet Vinay Sharma, sharing my writing journey.  Then a month later, He dropped a message of an invitation of a "Kavi Sammelan" which was in Thane.  So on 23rd May 2026 @1700 hours...

Stampede - A very crucial topic

Image
Stampede is a very crucial topic in today's world. So what is a stampede? It is a situation in which a group of large animals or humans suddenly start running in the same direction, especially because they are excited or frightened. There maybe many reason for a stampede such as victory stampede ex. RCB victory stampede or in case just a celebrity stampede wherein people gather in a crowd to meet their favorite personality for ex. Vijay sir, a south Indian actor and politician and there might be many such stampedes which we aren't aware of. It is good to meet your favorite personality in person but think about the consequences such as the deaths happening due to stampede. Innocent people are dying in stampede. I don't understand one thing that why people go in such a crowded place just to meet their favorite personality. I don't oppose you or disrespect your love towards them but why? Why to go in such a crowded place. No doubt you maybe a die heart fan but ...
