Hardwork can do miracles

Understanding of god

God is omnipotent and omnipresent. He is the guiding force and the supernatural power without whom nothing can exist in this world. He is caring and supportive of each one of us. To perceive god, one needs a pure mind. He resides within us.

Spiritual belief

Both spirituality and religion go hand-in-hand. Spirituality is about forgiving and being patient. After all, no one is perfect. We make mistakes knowingly or unknowingly. If one is kind enough to forgive others’ mistakes, it speaks volumes of his attitude. As far as religion is concerned, it helps a person in shaping him/her in a better way. It teaches life’s principles and morality.

Spiritual practices

I practice yoga and pray regularly. That apart, I think, helping the needy is equal to worshipping god. It gives self satisfaction and peace of mind.

Take on miracles

I believe that hardwork can do miracles. It can change both the world and yourself. I strongly feel that one can achieve everything through hardwork and create wonders in life.

Pilgrimage sites

I get to travel a lot and have visited many temples across the country. I visit the Kalibari Temple in T Nagar every week and go to Guruvayur Temple at least once a year. I would like to visit the Ajmer Dargah someday.
