Encourage-One-Another

I am sincerely thankful to Radharani and Krishna for keeping my prayers answered! Thanks to Debanada Ashram mataji for providing shelter to sister suman lata for a few days! That was really a great support!

This Sunday morning (3rd May) there was no surgery specialist in the town hospital hence booked an appointment with a nearby private surgeon doctor. Dr. prescribed her a few medicines, jel and referred her to Kolkata medical college hospital for plastic surgery of her feet. Spoke to Sister Suprabha, we will find a good team of doctors for the next step treatment! Seva.

Sunday, after the medical appointment, I visited the local police station and filed a GD for transferring sister suman lata to Maher Ashram Kolkata!

I am sincerely thankful to the officers of our local police station for acknowledging the general diary quickly and approving it , which allows me to take sister suman to Kolkata. Due to election duty all offices were present at PS that was another excellent thing to make the process faster.

Monday early morning I booked a cab and came to Kolkata with my family and sis suman! I am grateful to Radharani for providing support in each step and eventually sister Suman landed in the city of Joy and then by Radharani's grace I was able to admit her in Maher Ashram for abandoned women!

Sister suman's testimony is one of the most painful real life stories I have ever seen. As an obedient disciple of Radha Rani I believe everything was executed smoothly by the wishes and grace of Radharani and Krishna!🪷💖🪷

The next morning Sunday I took sister suman to the town medical hospital for her better treatment, since it was Sunday the nursing staff said the surgeon specialist won't visit I need to admit her but with a condition her family members should be present all day! I had to return to Kolkata on Sunday so I was not in a position to accompany her throughout the entire day. Hence took her to a nearby medical x-ray centre for an x-ray!

I asked for advice where I can do a better treatment and which surgery specialist is available on Sunday, thanks to Radharani everything was just in place for the sister! Dr. Sasmal a renowned surgery specialist reviewed and examined her leg injury and referred her to Kolkata medical college for a plastic surgery!
He shared a few hospital names in Kolkata who took care of plastic surgery treatment!!

I immediately spoke to Sister Suprabha Allath who runs Maher NGO in Kolkata and shared her all the medical details and photos of sister Suprabha. Sister Suprabha reviewed the medical details and agreed to keep Sister Suman at Maher for better medical treatment and temporary shelter!

The next step is to visit the local police station for a GD and provide GDE number to Sister Suprabha for rehabilitation!!

The day before yesterday I found an abandoned woman named Kumari Suman lata in my native town market near Narajol Rajbari, West Medinipur!

The lady is from UP , Basti district, Nargaon area, she accidentally came to the medinipur via Delhi to Kharagpur train! The fact that astonished me is she had a severe injury and fracture in her left toe. I was buying medicine from my mom and then observed her standing nearby with a very gloomy face! Her crest fallen face heeded my attention and I enquired more about her , then eventually found that she had been abandoned by her family members!

I immediately asked the local market people about her then discovered she has been in this market for a week and she can barely walk! I asked for advice from local people and I immediately took her to the Narajole Medical Hospital! Doctors and nursing stuff out there was extremely good, a primary level of treatment was done, bp, sugar, etc was measured! Doctors gave required medicines, then referred her to the surgeon specialist at our main town medical hospital!

After her medical treatment was done I took her to the Narajole Rajbari police camp to seek advice regarding transferring her to any NGO. After discussing with a few officers and the local King's neighbours they advised to shift her to Debanad Ashram for abandoned women for a temporary shelter! When I took the sister suman to Devanad ashram the mataji in charge immediately accepted her to provide shelter for few days only as per their rules. Aymt least God is so kind to take her from road to a shelter for few days that made sister suman a bit confident and safe.

Next day I was planning to take her to maintown medical hospital for better treatment as referred by the Narajole hospital doctor. When Radharani and Krishna are with you and they both provide you strength, courage and right connection at the right time then you don't have to put much effort, just keep praying for more compassion, humility and generosity to serve the distressed and abandoned!

🪷🪔🪷Lord Narasimha, the fourth avatar of Vishnu, manifested as a ferocious half-man, half-lion to protect his young devotee Prahlad from his tyrannical father, King Hiranyakashipu. Emerging from a pillar to honor Brahma's boon, Narasimha slew the demon at twilight on a threshold, proving that faith and dharma triumph over evil.

🪷🪔🪷Prahlad, an ardent devotee of Vishnu, was subjected to multiple murder attempts by his father, Hiranyakashipu, who considered himself superior to God. Narasimha placed Hiranyakashipu on his lap and disemboweled him with sharp nails on the threshold of the palace, protecting Prahlad.

🪷✨🪷 Attended a Kirtan & Mangal Arati program at Iskon Panihati and Iskon Newtown few months back! My cousin is a full time Iskon devotee and that helps to meet with many other devotees and learn from them! It was indeed a beautiful experience to be part of the program and chanting with the devotees on both KIRTAN and Mangal Aarati! (devotional chanting)

Devotional chanting helps overcome maya - illusion/material temptations by focusing the mind on the Krishna- effectively purifying consciousness and breaking the attachment to temporary material desires. By regularly chanting the RadhaRani and Krishna's name—especially with devotion one creates a spiritual light that dispels the darkness of ignorance and tests by Maya.

🪷✨🪷Key Aspects of Kirtan to Overcome Maya: The Power of Sound: Kirtan serves as a direct, powerful method to "put oneself in the presence of Krishna," where Maya cannot remain.

✨🪷✨Maya acts as an agent of Krishna, testing sincere devotees. Taking shelter through chanting helps one remain steady amidst these disturbances.

🪷✨🪷Maya (illusions) and Moha (moha) is very strong! Constant careful chanting is needed to avoid being captured again by material desires and worldly temptations!

Another elderly woman (I met her while going to my daughter's school) with similar heartwarming testimony, asking if we can provide her a walker as the old one is merely working!

Let's 🎉celebrate 🎉 this Women's day by standing on their side and healing their pain to some extent!!

In the *Sharing Goodness* group we are raising a little fund to support these two elderly women!

Sharing a heartwarming and horrible life testimony of two elderly women!

They are not only abandoned by their young established kin, also they completely cut off from all emotional attachments.Such abandonment and disregard for older women is all too common in a society. Older women face additional challenges of financial insecurity, destitution and health challenges related to ageing.

If an elderly family member is not earning an income, they are deemed to be dependents as a ‘burden’. Patriarchal cultural norms relegate women to domestic duties only without ensuring their future.

One section of the young earning members of the family living a comfort and lavish life neglecting their daily duties for elderly parents! Sometimes their own family members become extremely cruel and Stop talking over the phone or never come to meet them, fearing their comfort life would hamper!!

Since the past few months her daughter and their young grandchildren have stopped communicating with her and she is living in utmost pain, unable to express her grief and agony! She calls me to share her pain and sometimes she asks if she can reach where God lives!

Only thing we could do for her is provide her some monthly expenses and a mobile phone with divine and spiritual music in it so that she can concentrate on supreme Power!!
