‘Whether We Meet Again Or Not...’: Premanand Maharaj’s Emotional Message Amid Health Crisis

Spiritual leader Premanand Maharaj has issued an emotional message for his devotees amid ongoing health concerns, asking followers not to worry about him and instead stay devoted to bhajan, naam jap and seva. The message was shared through a video uploaded on Sunday on the YouTube channel of the Keli Kunj Ashram Trust in Vrindavan, leaving many devotees emotional and concerned about his health.

In the 1-minute-19-second video, the spiritual guru reassured his followers that his blessings and affection would always remain with them, even if they were unable to meet or interact with him personally for some time.

'Do Not Worry About Me,' Says Premanand Maharaj

Addressing devotees directly, Premanand Maharaj said, "Whether we meet or not, whether we speak or not, we love all of you very much. Even without speaking, I will remain in your thoughts. You should continue doing bhajan and chanting the Lord's name without any worry."

He further advised followers to stay committed to the spiritual service they are already engaged in and continue performing it with complete dedication and devotion.

In another emotional appeal, he told devotees not to feel anxious about his health or their spiritual growth. "Do not worry at all. Whether we meet or not, whether we speak or not, we love all of you very much. The final thing I want to say is that you should not worry. Do not even worry about how your spiritual upliftment will happen. Even without speaking, I will remain in your thoughts," he said.

The message quickly spread across social media platforms, where devotees expressed concern for his condition and prayed for his speedy recovery.

Night Padyatra And Darshan Suspended Since May 17

Premanand Maharaj's nightly padyatra and private darshan sessions have remained suspended since May 17 due to health-related reasons. His disciples had earlier informed followers that his condition was not stable.

On the night of May 17, thousands of devotees had gathered hoping to catch a glimpse of Maharaj during his routine early morning padyatra. However, unlike his usual schedule, he did not step out at around 3 am.

Later, disciples announced through loudspeakers that the padyatra was being suspended because of his health condition, leaving many devotees disappointed and emotional.

Despite his fragile health, Premanand Maharaj had visited his guru Govind Sharan Maharaj at Varah Ghat just three days ago after leaving the Keli Kunj Ashram.

Under normal circumstances, thousands of devotees participate in his padyatra in Vrindavan every day.

Premanand Maharaj Battling Serious Kidney Disease

Premanand Maharaj has reportedly been suffering from a severe kidney-related illness for a long time. According to his followers, both of his kidneys have failed and he undergoes dialysis two to three times every week.

His worsening health has become a major concern among devotees, especially after the cancellation of public spiritual activities that attract large gatherings of followers.

Spiritual Journey Of Premanand Maharaj

Premanand Maharaj chose the path of spirituality and celibacy at the age of 13. During the early phase of his spiritual life, he was known as 'Aryan Brahmachari'.
