At the grand Rudraksh Dham Katha Mandap in Sagar, Pujya Prembhushan Ji Maharaj highlighted the ideals of duty, obedience and right conduct during the fourth session of the seven-day Shri Ram Katha

While narrating episodes from Lord Ram’s life, he said that children who truly follow and respect their parents are rare, and such parents are truly fortunate. Lord Ram, on hearing about his father’s promise to Queen Kaikeyi, silently accepted exile and left for the forest, setting an unmatched example of obedience.

Karma decides happiness and sorrow

Maharaj Ji stressed that human beings themselves are responsible for their happiness, sorrow and even illness through their actions. Blaming God for suffering is meaningless, as God has neither sorrow nor disease to give. 

One’s destiny is shaped only by one’s own deeds, and the results of karma must be faced under all circumstances. He advised people to be especially careful about their actions after marriage, as careless behavior brings long-term consequences.

No one can change another’s destiny

Explaining the philosophy of Sanatan Dharma, Maharaj Ji said that no person can change another’s fate because destiny is formed by one’s own actions. Faith is the foundation of Sanatan Dharma, and righteous deeds are the only path to lasting peace. Learning has its own time in life; repeated mistakes cannot be justified in the name of experience.

Lessons from Kevat, Nishadraj and Shabari

Narrating inspiring episodes, Maharaj Ji said that Kevat got the opportunity to wash Lord Ram’s feet after 17 births and was freed from the cycle of birth and death. 

Through the dialogue between Lakshman and Nishadraj Guha—known as Guha Gita—it is explained that blaming others, including Queen Kaikeyi, is useless, as joy and sorrow come from one’s own karma. 

These stories prove that God does not discriminate on the basis of caste or birth. Devotion, love and honest use of hard-earned wealth lead to true happiness.

Sanatan Dharma stands for discipline and tradition

Maharaj Ji described India as a land of gods and dharma, where those who follow righteous paths remain happy, while those who choose unrighteous ways face suffering. 

He expressed concern over recent attempts to undermine Sanatan traditions and emphasized that culture survives only when religious practices are followed with proper respect and discipline.

Sins cannot be erased by shortcuts

He clearly stated that intentional wrongdoing never leaves a person and its consequences must be faced. If sins could be washed away easily, people would commit them daily and simply bathe in the Ganga. Sanatan scriptures explain every aspect of life, and living with faith in them brings balance and peace.

Sagar Watch News/
Renowned folk artist Bhagwandas Raikwar, who dedicated his life to preserving Bundeli folk art and traditional martial practices, has been selected for the Padma Shri Award 2026. He has been honoured under the ‘Unsung Heroes’ category, recognising individuals who have served society and culture selflessly without seeking publicity.

A lifelong custodian of Bundelkhand’s rich cultural heritage, Raikwar is being honoured for his outstanding contribution to the conservation, promotion and transmission of Bundeli folk traditions and indigenous martial arts. The Government of India acknowledged his decades-long grassroots work that kept several fading art forms alive.
Born on January 2, 1944, in Sagar to late Gorelal Raikwar, Bhagwandas Raikwar embodies the spirit of Bundelkhand, where folk life, valour and cultural discipline coexist. Through the akhara tradition, he preserved and taught traditional combat skills such as lathi, spear, sword, shield, trident, farsa, along with folk dance, music, weaponry and even kabaddi, ensuring their continuity among younger generations.
Despite limited resources, he developed Shri Chhatrasal Vyayamshala into a hub of cultural and physical training, instilling discipline, history and values alongside physical fitness. He has represented Bundeli culture at major national and international platforms, including the Mahakumbh, folk festivals, national theatre events and cultural fairs, introducing audiences to Bundelkhand’s heroic legacy. His efforts also helped revive several endangered folk traditions and provided recognition to local artists.
Raikwar’s life stands out for treating art as spiritual practice rather than livelihood. Avoiding fame and accolades, he remained focused on service—making his selection in the ‘Unsung Heroes’ category especially significant.
Following the announcement of the Padma Shri 2026, a wave of joy and pride has swept across Bundelkhand and the state. Cultural scholars, artists and citizens have termed it a historic honour for Bundeli culture, calling it both a recognition of Bhagwandas Raikwar’s lifelong dedication and an inspiration for countless folk artists preserving tradition at the grassroots.
