These were some of the warmest people I met in the Mela, from Jammu and Kashmir.
They are part of the Juna Akhada.
They told me, they generally don’t even drink water from anyones hands, but they accepted my blessed blue lotus and rose honey organic Prasadam from Kashi as part of my free distribution and sewa for raising natural consciousness and healing.
The Mataji was very comforting. Usually, in every place I go I can never actually relax ever in this society. I am always on edge, there is always someone to make me feel uncomfortable. I’ve suffered countless spiritual attacks since I started some of my projects for dharma protection.
But here for a few moments, I was allowed to breathe and not be fearful of being harmed. I was allowed to just exist. And they really enjoyed my Prasadam too.
With infinite grace of Maa Kamakhya,
I surrender all trust into her, and surrender all my efforts to her. Because even if this world doesn’t understand my dreams, the Goddess does - because she gave them.

Please help him this Ekadashi. It is the biggest Ekadashi of the year.
To support dharma to continue is one of the biggest things you can do in your life.
Jai Shri Mahakaal
It is 1.40am,
I am packing for my 4th Ambubachi Mela.
They say when Maa Kamakhya calls you, she will call you three times. In my case, it now felt like home.
Home,
Because amongst the sea of red robed Sadhakas, the heads of goats, the thick fog of incense and the fringest of fringe people in Santana Dharma, I no longer felt like I was different.
Sattvik, Tamasik, black, white, male, female, Kinnars, Aghoris, Sanyasis, householders, fairies, Yoginis, women. Yes, women.
Because women had been marginalised so much in this society, yet here you found the strong remembrance of Goddess Worship in its raw, multi dimensional form.
“Why are they touching my feet?” I remember asking one of my Baba friends, the first time someone had tried to take my blessings. It was all so new for me.
Yet now, all I wanted was to go back in the lap of the mother. To feel for some time, that everything was alright.
Because it had been a hard year. People had tried to take everything from me. Half of them had no idea how to respect women. I had seen the worst of it in UP.
Enough that I wanted to leave India at the first chance I got. Yet, here we are.
Once again, seeing how we can heal this broken civilisation.
How we can heal this civilisation that worships Shakti but is scared of a woman being free or thinking for herself. This civilisation that preaches Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah but forgets to do a single thing for the environment. Where people cheer on unconscious development, but have no idea what is being lost. A society that claims to fight for Hinduism but oppresses and marginalises its diverse sects like Vamachar.
Yet there is a supreme Shakti, who transcends all of it. So this time, I would only have to ask.
Ask her to fill all her children with the awareness to protect ecology and ancient temples. To protect the freedoms of temples to do their traditions. If they tried to stop my life purpose, I guess they didn’t know how much the universe has my back in every dimension.
Because you know what Devi likes the most? She likes honesty. She likes people who don’t pretend. Those that care more about the truth than society.
Spirituality was never something to fit in a box or a stereotype or a label. It was never about dogma, homogeneity or forcing modern views on ancient sects. It was always about worship, service and exploration.
Consciousness.
Because when you are a true Shakti Worshipper; you see beyond appearances. You come into contact with your soul. And here, she reminded me - I was already whole.
Jai Maa Kamkahya 🌹

Thank my friend, President Putin, for his phone call and for sharing insights on his recent meeting with President Trump in Alaska. India has consistently called for a peaceful resolution of the Ukraine conflict and supports all efforts in this regard. I look forward to our continued exchanges in the days to come.
