Sadhvi Bhagwati
Sadhvi Bhagwati is the international director of Parmarth Niketan’s Youth Education Services. She runs the Parmarth Shiksha Mandir that has adopted many deprived children and educates and helps them find jobs.
She was initiated into a life of sewa under Swami Chidanand Saraswati’s guidance. After meeting Swamiji, she realized that it was through him that she would be acquainted with what were for her the really important things in life—how to attain peace, happiness and meaning. Under his influence, she felt that she had been given the opportunity to finally make a positive difference in people’s lives.
Sadhvi Bhagwati has achieved this through her work with destitute and underprivileged children at the Parmarth Niketan Shiksha Mandir. She is able to bring a quality that melds both western and eastern points of view.
She attributes all this to the influence of a beneficial and benign combination of the right atmosphere and living on the banks of the Ganga. This is an incredible testimony to the power of being in a holy place, to the power of living on the banks of the Ganga, almost in the lap of the Himalayas, chanting mantras regularly, learning the Bhagavad Gita, and most importantly, living under the tutelage of a a guru figure that is all-loving and compassionate. |
