 By Ayesha Aryan Rana , Co-Founder, VRIGHT Path Why a Millennia-Old Ritual Still Matters Today Every year, as Shraddha Paksha (Pitru Paksha) approaches, debates resurface. Many intellectuals, scientists, and modern skeptics dismiss it as blind faith—“just another ritual created by Brahmins.” Some even call it outdated in a world driven by science, data, and rationalism. But if you’ve ever wondered whether there’s more to this ritual than feeding crows, making rice-ball offerings ( pinda-dana ), or chanting mantras for departed souls—pause. Because the truth is, Shraddha Paksha is not superstition. It is science, psychology, ecology, and spirituality—woven together in ways our ancestors intuited long before laboratories validated the same principles.

  The grand festival of Lord Ganesha , revered as the remover of obstacles and the harbinger of wisdom , is approaching with great enthusiasm across Maharashtra and India. This year, the festival brings not only cultural vibrancy but also a deeper call for spiritual awakening, humility, and unity. ( Hindi  ) Lalbaug Raja 1st Darshan Historical and Cultural Significance The Ganesh Festival (Ganesh Chaturthi) has been celebrated for centuries, but its public form (Sarvajanik Ganesh Utsav) was initiated by Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak in 1893 as a unifying force during India’s freedom struggle. Today, the festival is an integral part of Maharashtra’s cultural fabric, combining devotion, tradition, and social service. From household celebrations to iconic public pandals like Lalbaugcha Raja and G.S.B. Seva Mandal , the festival embodies a unique blend of spirituality and community spirit. Spiritual Discipline and Observances for 2025 This year, devotees are urged to obse...

  By Ayesha Rana, Co-Founder – VRIGHT PATH ( Ancient Bharat Knowledge Platform for Clarity and Actions to Bridge Your Karma Gaps ) Today, India stands at a moral and cultural crossroads. The rapid spread of pre-marital relationships, casual dating, and live-in arrangements is reshaping not only how men and women interact, but also how families, communities, and our very sense of self-respect and character are evolving. This change is not without consequence — emotionally, socially, and spiritually.    Hindi The Crisis We Are Facing Pre-marital love affairs and live-in relationships, now widely normalized through media, social platforms, and cinema, are leading to a crisis in individual temperament, emotional health, and personal dignity. They often promote: Short-term gratification over long-term responsibility Confusion in relationships and lack of emotional stability Erosion of commitment, loyalty, and patience Disrespect toward parents, marriage,...

  By Ayesha Rana, Co-Founder, VRIGHT PATH In India, the month of Shravan —associated with Lord Shiva —is revered as a sacred period of fasting, prayer, and spiritual discipline. But there’s a reason why this month does not begin on the same date everywhere. More importantly, there is a far deeper logic to its observance than simply abstaining from meat or alcohol. ( Hindi ) Why Does Shravan Start on Different Dates Across India? India follows two distinct lunar calendar systems : Amanta system (month ends with Amavasya) — followed in South & West India (Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Andhra, Telangana, etc.) Purnimanta system (month ends with Purnima) — followed in North & Central India (UP, Bihar, MP, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, etc.) This causes a one-month difference , so while Shravan in North India has started on July 10 , in the South, it will start from 25 July   2025.   Shravan Is More Than Abstinence: It's Ecol...

  By    VRIGHTPATH  – An Eternal Knowledge Platform to Bridge Your Karma Gaps In life, we meet two kinds of people — the good and the bad. These aren't just words; they are the deepest reflections of our lived experiences. Understanding what a good person gives us, and what a bad person silently takes away, is essential for living a meaningful life.  ( हिंदी में पढ़ें )   What Does a Good Person Give? A good person is always a giver — not of grand things, but of gestures that deeply touch the heart. Understanding and Support: When you’re broken, a good person sits quietly beside you. They don’t question your tears — they simply stay. Respect and Inspiration: Their words carry truth. They see strength even in your weakness and give you the courage to rise. The Power to Forgive: A good person knows that everyone makes mistakes. They don’t hold grudges — they hold space. Energy and Peace: Spending time with them doesn’t drain you — it makes you feel more aliv...
