Understanding of godI don’t have my dad anymore and I pray to him to be with me always. I have felt my dad’s presence even after his death. His divine soul has helped me get things done easily. My dad is my god. So far I have not asked anything from god. I’m someone who takes life as it comes. Spiritual beliefsI’m angry on god because he has taken my dad away from me. When he was alive, I used to be quite spiritual and religious. I used to smear ashes (Vibuthi) on my forehead and visit temples quite often with my family. But today, I have lost faith in god. I don’t know why god has been so merciless on my dad. He was a gem of a person and had immense faith in god.Pilgrimage sitesI don’t plan any of my spiritual tours. But I love visiting Velankanni and Nagore Darga. Bangalore ISKCON temple happens to be close to my heart. Also, I visit Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry occasionally. I love that place for its serenity and peacefulness. Spiritual experienceMy life has never been a bed of roses. Whatever I’m today is because of my hard work. When I lost my dad I thought of ending my life, but I couldn’t because I had to look after my mom and elder sister. After my dad passed away, I became more responsible. Now I’m absolutely content with the struggle I went through. And such a kind of experience is beyond spirituality I suppose!
