Sorry again, dear reader, to cut you right when you are reading!
Just wanted to apologize for not being able to regularly update. Two simple reasons, one, I am held up with a lot of work and two, I do not want to force the writing out of me. If I do the second one, I will end up not liking what I write and you all also would feel that. So why force? But don't worry, I am in the pace of feeling and writing the same.
Till, then I want to thank you for your patience and cooperation! It means a lot to me.
Meanwhile, wishing all those of you who like, worship, respect and adore Lord Ram, a very happy Prana Pratishtha Day! Lord Ram, our Ram Lalla, has come back to his Janmabhoomi!
Now there will be multiple people who will definitely say, this is not right, this is injustice, recall the incident of Babri Masjid, people of UP have not been given their basic rights in the process of establishing this temple or even that this is a Political Gimmick etc.
All my dear friends, who are devotees of Lord Ram, please do just one thing when you hear such statements. Accept them with a big heart! People are definitely entitled to view things from their own perspectives and what they say or do, should not offend you. And these points that they have raised are definitely correct, it is just that some of us choose not to accept them, and that is not fair. You do not know what they have experienced and you cannot criticise them. Do things that are more accepting. As Sanatanis, this is what is expected of us, right? When Lord Ram can accept the words his Praja has said and send Mata Sita to the forest (not as per the Valmiki Ramayana), why can't we be more tolerant and acceptant to perspectives of others? It can be that we are wrong and they are right! Quite possible since we are all humans!
So, follow principles of Lord Ram, in this horrible world, try to make it a better place to live in, be kind, be patient, be honest, stand up for what is right, and make sure to accept the fact that there are different perspectives. All of us are humans, we cannot say that the others' truth is not true. Each one of us has our own truths and they are right in our own perspectives. That is fine!
Happy Prana Pratishtha Day!
Jai Shri Ram! Jai Siya Ram!
