I started coming to Neelkanth Dham around 13/14 years back when I was hardly 8/9 years old. My parents used to visit this holy place on Sundays and Bada Guruwaars and they used to tag me along. So, initially, it was more of a ritual for me to come along with them, but on some pretext, I would miss coming on some Sundays.
Over a period of time, I started feeling good on my each visit to Dham. As soon as I would enter this holy place, I would feel positive energy coming to my mind and body and felt charged for the coming week. Gradually, I felt lot of changes taking place within me. I developed clarity of mind. Physically, I started feeling more energetic. Interacting with most of the Gurujis, rendering selfless service to people there, gave me opportunities to learn some aspects of spirituality, which helped me to concentrate on anything I ventured to do. It was a learning process for me to develop positive personality and my character, noble and pious.
What initially (as a teenage girl) was a ritual for me, has become my religion to come to Neelkanth Dham as frequently as possible. Quite often a thought comes to my mind, why can’t more Sundays be there in a week. Although I never had an opportunity to have Bade Guruji’s darshan in his physical form, but I strongly feel his presence around me whenever I remember Him. He has become a part of my life. As an innocent young girl, if I would not find something that I was searching for, I would just look at Guruji’s photo, pray to Him and instantly my eyes would fall on the item I was looking for. If I had forgotton something and was unable to recollect, I would repeat the above process (look at Guruji’s photo and pray to Him) and I would instantly remember what I was finding it difficult to remember. As I am growing in age, whenever I come across any problem or find myself in a dilemma, I just remember Pujya Guruji and the solution comes before me.
The greatest satisfaction I have in my life now is that I have a spiritual power to fall back upon. Without any hesitation, I have the means to communicate and share my problems and doubts with host of Gurujans (who have been empowered and have the blessings of Bade Guruji) and seek their guidance and help whenever I wish to. I feel truly blessed to be associated with such a spiritual community.
