       Each 
        person struggles through 
         
        live. For some the trials are 
         
        overpowering, for others a bored  
         
        status quo prevails,and 
         
        for a minority mountains are 
         
        pounded to dust in 
         
        the search for meaning and joy. 
         
        Within the invisible depths of 
         
        each soul there is a yearning.  
         
        A need to know Why?. 
         
        Why do we live?, 
         
        Why do we experience problems?, 
         
        Why are we travellers on the 
         
        journey of life?. 
         
        In the search for answers to 
         
        their uncertainties many turn to 
         
        the God-realised Saint.

              C.T. Patel : How can one constantly enjoy the bliss of Akshardham?

              Swamishri : If one truly understands mahima - the glory of God -, 
              then one will experience eternal bliss. If theres no such 
              mahima, questions arise in ones mind such as why did 
              this happen? or whats the point of this? 
              But if we have mahima, we never get such doubts. Then we 
              only see good in all, young and old, and we experience peace. Without 
              mahima, even if we possess all other good qualities, we will never 
              be content. The Saint we have met is not of this world. If we can 
              keep this one thought fixed in our mind, we will be happy forever.

            | 
           
              
              Swamishri : Everything is automatic. You never realise the passing 
              of time Akshardham. You just experience everlasting bliss. And just 
              as you never get tired of watching videos, there, Maharajs 
              image is constantly on the video.
