The year 2025 heralded the commencement of a thrilling journey. There was a need to welcome this new year with unmatched energy and zeal, hence one needed to peruse the glorious lessons from Shri Krishna Charit Manas (Rasayan Mahakavya), written by Jagadguru Shri Priyadarshi Ji Maharaj. The lessons of Shri Krishna Charit Manas were essential in this new age. Celebrating 100 years of Preaching by Jagadguru Shri Priyadarshi Ji Maharaj, 60 years of Shri Krishna Charit Manas, and 50 years of Preaching by Braj Ras Rasik Shri Leela Rasik Ji Maharaj. The stories in this Granth (holy scripture) held relevance for modern-day lives, as each problem faced had an age-old moral to solve it. The Granth, which featured a tapestry of stories (leelas) from Lord Shri Krishna’s epic adventures, held his profound thoughts and could help anyone through a time of hardship.
The lessons helped in overcoming difficulties that emerged at the end of 2024 while embracing and enjoying new experiences through the boundless power of spirituality. It also provided a spiritual path to God and advice on how to alleviate human suffering. Dr. Shri Krishna Kinkar Ji, Shri Krishna Charit Manas (Bhagavat) Kathavachak & Spiritual Orator, shared the wisdom of Krishna Charit Manas for us.
The prior year and the current one made it evident that the following year could be both more interesting and demanding. To triumph over these challenges, one needed to make an attempt to embrace spirituality. Meditating, practising yoga, and chanting the holy name of God helped one get past these hardships. It was often emphasized by Lord Shri Krishna that one should never be frightened by doing the right thing. One had total control over their actions, so they focused solely on them, said Shri Krishna. One’s behaviour determines their future; one’s actions decide their life.
As people learned from Lord Shri Krishna, their lives changed so drastically for the better that they experienced incredible things every day. Embracing spirituality through yoga, meditation, and chanting in the upcoming year helped simplify and address these issues effectively. Attracting positive energy within themselves ensured that each day was genuinely extraordinary.
