कृष्णएवगतिर्मम

“Krishna is my sole refuge”

In ‘Krishnashray’, Vallabhacharya explores all the prevailing and popular means of attaining Moksha and strikes them out as unattainable one by one. Finally, a conclusion is arrived that it is only an honest surrender to the merciful Krishna which can liberate ourselves.

The central message of Vallabhacharya’s “Krishnashray” was promptly and throughly grasped by the Vaishnavas at Shri Vallabhacharyaji Bethakji in Jam Khambhalia.

I was honoured to speak before the gathering for three days and the keen interest shown by the Vaishnavas further uplifted my joy.

I have often fallen for that famous trait of most Mumbaikars where we either completely forget or wilfully ignore the various attractions Mumbai has to offer in search of something outside the city.

I visited Juhu Beach after nearly a decade and a lot has changed. The water is cleaner (relatively) the crowds are better managed and the lifeguards are actually there! The boat ride was surprisingly fun too, the USP being the amazing skylines of Juhu and Bandra which you get to see from a new and unique angle. It was a fun and memorable evening at the sea this summer.
