Rise above the Noise

Good morning, dear friends. So Hum. Namaste. 

In South India, it is common to see temple elephants walking on the streets. People offer prayers, as they see in them Gajendra — the celebrated devotee of Lord Vishnu. 

But even before devotees arrive, it is often the street dogs who notice the elephant first… and they bark endlessly! Yet, the elephant remains unmoved. It is neither disturbed by barking nor carried away by worship. It simply continues its sacred duty — offering Darshan to people, as part of our Vedic tradition. 

 Along our journey, few will praise and respect our efforts…
Many will question, accuse, and criticise. Both praise and criticism are part of our evolution. 

 For a true spiritual aspirant, the focus is not on the “side scenes” or the noise of fame and blame — the focus is on the mission. 

That is why Lord Krishna reminds us: “Karmanyeva Adhikaraste…” You have the right to perform your duty, but not to worry about the fruits of your actions. Do your best and leave the rest in surrender. 

Thank you for your kind attention. Have a blessed week ahead. So Hum
