Functionaries of Shri Tukdoji Maharaj’s Sanstha Comment on the Occasion
Commenting on the development President Prakash Wagh of Akhil Bhartiya Shri Gurudeo Sewa Mandal said, “Teachings of Heartfulness and Daaji are similar to everything we have learnt from Maharaj ji and we feel honored to be in the presence of Daaji to learn the ways to experience those teachings on daily basis through the practice of Meditation. The honor and respect Daaji has given to Maharaj ji has touched our hearts and we will feel that jointly such teachings of transformation will reach millions of people all over the world.”
While General Secretary Shri Janardan Pant Bothe said, “During his lifetime, Shri Tukdo Ji Maharaj has said and documented that ‘In future, if you find a Guru/Sanstha whose thoughts are aligned with ours or better than ours, please embrace such opportunity and move forward working together’ and this opportunity seems to be that”. He said he is now 82 years old and he always wondered at what Shri Tukdo Ji Maharaj had written that his teachings would one day reach the entire world but now when he met Daaji and witnesses his noble approach of inclusiveness he felt amazed and realized that Rev Daaji would be the one who is taking up this task for the benefit of all.”
Heartfulness meditation practise is steadily gaining prominence across the world and in the last one year through Dhyanotsavs (the transformational outreach programs across tier 1,2&3 cities) touched millions of Indians. More than 175 Dhyantosavs across the length and breadth of the country have resulted in hundreds of villages adopting Heartfulness and lakhs of people benefiting from its practise. Daaji’s role as a silent changemaker in helping achieve and accelerate Human Transformation is being reinforced with today’s development
While addressing the audience at International Yoga Conference at Mysore in November 2019, Daaji had given a clarion call for all spiritual organisations to work together for the upliftment of humanity. “The coming together of two of the oldest spiritual organisations is a milestone achievement. Organisations which are all aligned towards upliftment of society can benefit from each other’s strengths and speed up the process of betterment of humanity. In this extremely volatile world of today, the need for positive forces coming together is the need of the hour and this is a first step towards motivating many more organisations to work together towards a common cause”, said, Daaji the Guide of Heartfulness.
The Granite plaque installed at Kanha Shantivanam, the world Headquarters of Heartfulness Institute, will institutionalise the teachings of the Shri Tukdoji Maharaja and practitioners of Heartfulness can benefit from these teachings.” As a mark of respect to the great leader it was important that his teachings continued to reach millions more, at Heartfulness we are fortunate that his teaching in form of engravings have found a permanent fixture and will touch the lives of all those who visit Kanha in decades to come”, added Daaji.
