This space is dedicated to the timeless wisdom of the Indian subcontinent — and how it quietly, beautifully, and sometimes unexpectedly flows into our everyday modern lives.
My own spiritual path began in skepticism. I spent many years as an atheist — until I encountered Neem Karoli Baba, also known as Maharaj-ji. His life became the turning point. He wasn’t a philosopher, a preacher, or a teacher in the traditional sense. He didn’t give lectures on dharma or prescribe meditation techniques. His presence was the teaching. His message was simple and powerful:
Love everyone. Serve everyone. Remember God.
Maharaj-ji offered a path of bhakti for the householder — a way of being that doesn’t require retreating to a cave or monastery. You could live a full life: raise a family, work a job, exist in the busy, imperfect world — and still walk the path of devotion and surrender.
He placed feeding people above fasting, service above solitude, and love above all dogma. He saw no contradiction between Christ and Krishna, between Hanuman and the Stoics. He often spoke of Jesus with deep reverence. His truth wasn’t owned by any religion — and neither is this site.
The Modern Bhakti exists to share wisdom wherever it blooms — whether in the Mahabharata, the Bhagavad Gita, the Bible, or the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius.
Because truth doesn’t belong to one system.
It just asks to be remembered.
Jai Hanuman 🙏
