Wholehearted Tribute to Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji 🙏🙏🙌

With approaching  100th post here, and celebrating 100 years Birth Centenary of great Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji - can not have more beautiful coincidence and more beautiful reason to pay tribute to the great man, great saint of this century.

Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji was the tenth Guru of Jain Shwetambar Terapanth Sangh, born in a small village Tamkor in Rajasthan, inspired by the religious inclination and spirituality of his mother, decided to enter monk hood at the early age of ten. And from there onward started his journey of  enlightenment. He was fortunate to receive the guidance of Acharya Shri Tulsi which led to acceleration of his intellectual development.

His life was a great inspiration in every sense. One of the mantra of Mahapragya ji was 'Walk, Acquire, and Give' - also quoted by our former president Late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, who was also influenced by him. Walk signifying travel continuously, Acquire is to gain the knowledge and Give symbolizing giving and contributing whatever you can to the society. He was the greatest preacher of Ahimsa and throughout his life encouraged people to follow the path of Ahimsa. He was a firm believer that the root cause for all the problems prevailing in the world such as crime, poverty, pollution, war, etc. is brutal and violent thinking. The spark of  Ahimsa ignited by him speeded across the nation. Per him, Non Violence and Ahimsa would lead to world peace, all harmony, mental health therapy, and morals and can turn out to be life changer. Currently where the world is terrorized by the pandemic Coronavirus, Mahapragya ji had spoken about this in one of his speeches 50 years ago that if there will be so much of violence in the world, then the war will not happen through arms instead it will be from virus.

Acharya Shri came up with the solution of Ahimsa Yatra, and covered thousands of Kilometres journey on foot to advance the principle of Non Violence and Ahimsa.
His aura and persona was that of a great scholar but he never got a chance of attaining any formal education. He laid the foundation of courses like 'Science of Living'  which aimed at improved efficiency in studies and better  concentration and stress management. Also, Mahapragya ji was a proficient writer and has authored close to 300 books. His work dealt with meditation, spirituality, human psyche, Yog and Sadhna, Mantrasadhna, and much more. Also he had strong command on subjects like philosophy, economics, politics and that too has written with equal depth and power in these subjects as well. His vision could be seen by his work. He has also co-authored one book with former President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam named as 'The Family and the Nation'. Mahapragya ji extensively believed in Preksha meditation, same can be read in many of his books, he firmly practiced meditation along with its different techniques.

Birth and Death are very normal, not in our control but what is vital is life. Life full of influence, service, sacrifice and meditation. And that is how Mahapragya ji's life was. All his teachings are still alive among us. Heartfelt homage to such Mahapurush Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji.

Below is the video showcasing our honorable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi, paying tribute to Acharya Mahapragya ji on his birth centenary.
Amidst all the tensions prevailing due to Indo China attack resulting into violence everywhere, the silent and balanced approach chosen by our PM to speak for the great saint Acharya Shri Mahapragya ji who showed and preached the path of Ahimsa and Non violence - is worth a praise and deserves a big salute.

P.S. This post is referential created with the help of few references and sources.

Had an urge to post something..and after turning on the thinking cap for some time, thought of putting up few lines that I had penned sometime back for my Great Grand Father - who has been a true source of inspiration for our entire clan. Though he may not be present among us, but he is the one power that has tied his generations with an intense bond.
Though these are very generic lines but these words are so true that they make me proud - proud to be part of his generation, offers a great learning and motivates me till depth whenever I listen about his stories -be it his business vision or his personal accomplishments.
Had written these lines for the website that is being designed to depict the business goals and lists all the trading firms that are being operated by his multi generation family as of today spread across different parts of the nation.

Shri Pem Chand Ji Baid – an iconic figure from the history of Baid Genealogy, a man with eminent characteristics, conferred with enormous sanity and intelligence.

He was the man bestowed with immense wisdom and intellect. Countless incidents we have heard of, where he exhibited super heroic strength during the times of struggle, always standing as a backbone for family.

Always showcasing patience, he had a very composed personality. All his success stories till date imbibes into the growing minds of his fourth generation of kids, implanting a spark of inspiration. Showering love and affection in abundance was one of his distinct qualities that would be adored by generations.

A flourishing empire enriched with values of harmony and peace is something he always envisioned of. He was the one who valued other members opinion before taking any business decision, and thus gave every one an equal in depth opportunity to think independently. His philosophy and intelligence reflected through the strong business sense he carried. As an outcome we can see that it’s all due to the great learning from him which has let his generations uplift the pillars of success thriving in this world with a weave of skills and competency.

To us, he truly is the man behind the growth of ‘Baid Lineage’. He indeed was a person with silver in his hair and gold in his heart.

Maa Tujhe Salaam..!!!

Heyy friends..I know, you must be sensing the presence of my absence, After a long time,I'm returning,and I've a list of excuses for that.Living with a state of mind, entirely bewildered, and longing for something righteous to happen.Losing clutch on my obsession, is something which is really bothering me at the moment.Amidst all this, a sincere thanks goes to few of my friends for always raising my spirits, just love the quality moments spent with you.I've been wasting my time over some silly social networking amusements,now I'll try to stay away before the addiction hits me.Last but not least,the freezing winters am living in, do play some role in drifting me away from my space, just lazying around in the chill, ample to learn from the people around, but i fail.In this shivery season, where frost seems to be at it's peak,I see one person running around just for the sake of her family.Before, the dawn breaks, she can be noticed commencing the habitual routine, as if matching the pace with the tick of clock.Dedicating the whole of her life in just serving us, meeting our endless demands.A question, strikes me here, does the winter chill don't bites her, can't she lay off with any excuse, but still my self loves to be so reluctant, i feel helpless.Devoting, the huge percentage of the day in standing in front of the stove, serving with varieties, innumerable and the unmatched delicacy, without expecting a word of praise. A bit of vex in my life,and I can feel the crease of tense and worry burdening her, what shall I pay for this admiring concern? Whenever.I'd been in any suffering, a healing hand I've always felt near me, A soft caress,I've never missed, but what about her ailments, she never grumbled,or I was least concerned. A Life of compromises engrossed with adjustments, facing and sacrificing at every step, is it so easy to live?Whatever dearth, she is in, she could never let you feel any scarcity, always have seen her showering the oceans of love and care.A quest soars often in my mind, if God has created her merely for meeting our demands, listen to all our whines, without a single ray of rage, encasing always with the warmth of her cuddle.Yes,that's a mother, a sanctified lady indeed. An impassive soul like me can draw such emotions, but all in vague, What minute efforts do I make, to meet her unsaid expectations? A heartiest salute, to my mother, her unconditional love is beyond any expression,Describing your supportive and understanding nature is virtually impossible.Thanks for making me Me, for courage to face the world, for lessons I've learnt from you and still have in abundance to learn.Again,I salute you..!!!

Sunken beyond the shore...

Royal cruise,
loaded with voyagers huge,
proposed with deluxe luxuries,
carrying the riches,
set for a journey wide,to sail.

was a masterpiece from,
worthy skillful architects,
tagged as largest floating craft
of the time,
bookmarked the history,
not because of powerful
strokes of engines used,
but due to the overwhelming
attack of mighty nature.

Yes, that fateful night of 1912,
came with a catastrophe to awe,
the fun, and frolic,and moods of merry,
chirpy delight of passengers all,
got shaken by a casual struck of an iceberg,
a single hit,led to an unworthy accident,
sinking vessel,rolled into an obscene disaster,
clutches of powerful nature,overrated the
labor and sweat of loyal engineers,
the huge body dumped into a wreckage,
tragedy,outrageous took the toll to thousands,
for centuries bound to remember,
the splendid and classic,Titanic,
swallowed off by the Atlantic...

am just pouring down some thoughts, bestowed as a dedication...

Many people came and went,
but for them, I don't have to repent.
because people come and go,
but none had the seed of true friendship to sow.
few were friends, few fiend,
few were shriek, few kind.

But it was in you I saw,
the torch of true friendship, that'll glow.
and the relation we gonna share,
which among all is rare.
because few relations in earth never die,
and that's where our friendship lies.

Limited is my vocab to express u,
Am short of words to describe u.
from you, I learnt the meaning of this relation,
for you are a gem like of person.
A friend is someone that reaches for your hand and touches your heart,
for me our friendship is like a garden full of blossoming flower plants.
for each day as it pass,
the joy and pleasure, our friendship gonna surpass.

Your smile charges me up with power,
Your presence confronts me to face all ups and downs.
When I was in depression,
you made me free of every tension.
Whenever I was alone,just waited to see you,
for,you were there to keep away the gloom.
for, you always offered me a comfy shoulder to cry,
where I was always free to sigh.
the warm hug, you've embraced me with,
your utmost care and concern is what I miss.

Have seen in you a true guide,
who gonna take me on a ride,
to show me the right path to chose,
with life full of crests and troughs, i may not get confuse.

Things in abundance, we share,
with open hearts without any glare.
those long talks, and moonlit walks,
those laughs with jokes to crack,
enjoying those treats,
because we were true freaks,
those consoling sessions that would crawl,
I miss them all.

In every aspect,I've received your support and protection,
you proved to be a friend with perfection,
'thanks' is not a word for your care and affection.

All those moments are gonna cherished,
No way any of them can't perish.
Moments filled with glory, emotions and all those shades,
Memories of you can never fade.
for, am left with all memories to sustain,
All those mesmerizing moments gonna retain.

Last but not the least,
few lines I need to gist.
however long distances may keep us apart,
our friendship is there which can't make us depart.
how much, the life make us feel detached,
our friendship is always gonna keep us attached.

Cheers to our everlasting eternal friendship..
this bond is gonna keep us bind,
for, True Friendship is drenched from heart and mind..
May God always keep you in best of spirit..
May you succeed in every endeavor,
for you, this is my token of prayer..!!!

Sanchaiyta-ek koshish...

Since last few days,my mind is compelling me to take time and write something about our 'Sanchaiyta'..and today, finally somehow i managed carving out few lines..my dear frnds(Sanchaiyta's founders), take dis as an experimental attempt, as i might nt b gud when it cums to express..so, sorry for ne mistakes made..ur views on how to improve are always welcome..
Ok..For other visitors, first of all let me introduce u all to our 'Sanchaiyta'..It's an NGO formed by seven of us fellow friends, just a small attempt to help those,who are not as privileged as we are.Few of our Contributions include- donation to earthquake victims via Army Relief Fund, donating a watertank to Tsunami affected people, donating to an organisation called HCRA where our sum was contributed for surgical treatment of the children.I would like to thank all our members and co-founders for their immense support and cooperation at every stage.
We believe that - Your minute endeavor can make a difference in a person's life..
For you it would mean nothing,but for someone,it could mean everything.
Now,I'll take u towards our journey of Sanchaiyta...

We were a group of buddies,
had to do a lot, apart from studies.
We decided to do a deed, by collection
to help those in need, with affection.

To do something incredible, was an urge
That's what made seven of us to merge.

A small penny can sometimes do wonder,
can make the lives of feeble, splendor.
It's the matter of minuscule effort, not pride,
to help those who're deprived.

Sanchaiyta-it got it's name.
We promised,it'll attain fame,
We'll work hard to help the poor and lame.

It was then,we laid the foundation.
It was then,we started with strong determination.
It was then,we initiated with the contribution.

Tsunami came as a catastrophe,leading devastation
Earthquake took thousands of lives without hesitation,
We donated as per our will,what we found to our best
Just to help those who were not like rest.
This is just an example to cite,
Sanchaiyta was meant with a motto to extirpate the plight.

It was something that kept us contented,
which we fulfilled whole-hearted,
helping those who wanted.

Then our effort was extended with generosity,
blended with little publicity,
As an outcome,others joined us for the sake of humanity.

Soon, we grew into a large family,
everyone coming along vivaciously,
to lay the helping hand calmly.

Then, what was seen was congregation,
started the process of registration,
Did more of charity and donation.

Yes, we did it..!!!
Now,our Sanchaiyta is flourishing like a child,
and will move like a glide,
what all it needs, is your support and stride..

Come,Join us in our journey of bringing smile to people's faces...
Those people,whose fate has been sealed by the clutches of cruel destiny...
