Understanding ogf god:

I believe God is a great source of positive energy and someone who is always there to take care of us. Someone who permits certain things, knowing that it will do you good, no matter how much pain you have to go through. He is some one whom no one has seen. Yet, he is someone whom most people  believe the most.

Faith in miracles:

A miracle is something over which we have no control. We don't know if a miracle is even possible. I believe in the saying, ‘Thoughts become things’. We deem it a miralce when the thing that we desire the most comes to us in the most unexpected manner. And when we can believe in God, whom we haven’t seen, then, why not miracles? I think a miracle is one of his ways to surprise you.

Belief in meditation:

It is the exact opposite of a miracle. Meditation is a process by which we try to control our thought processes. It is where we filter these thoughts as positive or negative ones. Meditation is about understanding the inner peace and something that makes you think beyond the limits of your imagination.

Spiritual practices:

I consider anything which makes one feel oneself, where one is able to derive enough peace as a spiritual practice. Spiritual practice isn’t about visiting a holy place or temple or going on a pilgrimage.

Favourite pilgrimmage spots:

God is present everywhere. He is that source of energy which protects you from evil. My favourite pilgrimage spot is the Jain temple in Porur.
