Massive Turnout for Blood Donation Drive at Tapobhoomi Celebrating Swamiji’s Silver Jubilee Year Gurupeetharohan
Kundaim: “God is supreme in this universe. There are limits to human research, but the Divine is boundless, whether we choose to believe it or not. If we place immense faith in God, this supreme power has the strength to pull a person even from the jaws of death. Therefore, keep absolute faith in this energy. We must donate blood with this complete faith, realizing that the Almighty has blessed us with the strength to do so. We should donate with the humble thought that this small act of service will save someone’s life. We must continue doing our duty. ‘Paropkaraya Punyaya, Papaya Parapeedanam’ (Helping others is virtue; hurting others is sin). Our body is meant for philanthropy and the service of others. Just as we live for our families, we must realize that our nation is our family and live for it. In fact, we should live not just for the nation, but for the entire universe. Transcending all differences of high and low, we should donate blood by considering everyone as a part of our own family,” addressed Padma Shri awardee Sadguru Brahmeshanand Acharya Swamiji.
Pujya Swamiji was speaking at a grand blood donation camp jointly organized by the Satguru Foundation, Sadguru Youth Federation, and Shree Datta Padmanabh Peeth at Shree Kshetra Tapobhoomi Gurupeeth. The mega drive was organized to mark the auspicious occasion of the Silver Jubilee Year of Pujya Swamiji’s ascension to the Gurupeeth (Gurupeetharohan Rajat Mahotsav).
Prominent dignitaries present on the occasion included Dr. Shekhar Salkar (Manipal Hospital), Shri Sachin Desai (Director, Department of Environment and Climate Change), Shri Harish Adkonkar (MD, Goa Waste Management Corporation), Shri Digvijay Desai (General Manager, Goa Waste Management Corporation), Dr. Prachit Naik (Senior Doctor, Blood Bank), Dr. Shubham Daikar (Tutor, Blood Bank), Dr. Neville Dias (Medical Officer), Ms. Binisha Pednekar (Titan Eye Plus), and Dental Surgeons Dr. Sanjana Shirgaonkar and Dr. Anisha Kalekar, along with other respected guests and office bearers.
