Sagar Watch News/  Union Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that real joy lies not in being a leader but in serving as a sevakar. He explained the three paths to God—Gyan, Bhakti, and Karma—as described in scriptures, and cited Lord Krishna’s teaching that no one can live without performing duties.

The minister attended the Purnahuti session of the seven-day Shri Ram Katha, which concluded with a spiritually charged Purnahuti session at the grand Katha Mandap of Rudraksh Dham in Sagar, Madhya Pradesh. 

While addressing the thousands of devotees in the Purnahuti session, Minister Shri Singh Remarked That said that the true essence of religion lies in service and love. “Religion is a great yajna that lifts humanity above selfishness and guides it toward service, devotion, and compassion,” he said. 

He also described Prembhushan Ji Maharaj’s life as an inspiring example of love, knowledge, and devotion, stating that such discourses guide society toward the right path.

Renowned storyteller Pujya Shri Prembhushan Ji Maharaj emphasized that the Shri Ramcharitmanas contains the complete divine life of Lord Ram and must be read and heard in sequence, not in fragments. 

He said that devotion and understanding grow only through continuous and orderly listening, comparing it to education that cannot skip basic classes to reach higher learning directly.

Addressing thousands of devotees from the Vyas Peeth, Maharaj Ji said that the tradition of Akhand Ramayan has always been central to Sanatan culture. 

He explained that listening to the Lord’s story repeatedly brings new meaning every time, removes human suffering, and gives inner peace. “Every living being has more pain than story, but God’s story removes that pain,” he said, urging people to stay engaged in virtuous deeds and self-reflection rather than worldly worries.

During the concluding sessions, Maharaj Ji narrated episodes from Kishkindha Kand, Sundar Kand, Lanka Kand, and Shri Ram Rajyabhishek. He stressed that devotion begins with accepting God first, followed by understanding Him, and that the guidance of a Sadguru is essential on this path. 

He also highlighted the importance of seeing God as a living presence in daily household worship, criticizing symbolic devotion without emotional connection.

The Purnahuti session was attended by Union Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan, former minister, several MLAs, former ministers, and other public representatives. After the Katha, Shri Chouhan visited the Rudraksh Dham premises and offered prayers and aarti at the South-facing Hanuman Temple.

Former Home Minister and Khurai MLA Shri Bhupendra Singh, while delivering the vote of thanks, described Rudraksh Dham as a spiritually awakened land. 

He also highlighted that no donations are ever sought for any construction or religious activity at Rudraksh Dham, attributing everything to divine grace.

Shri Bhupendra Singh concluded by saying that as long as Shri Ram Katha exists in India, the nation’s culture and identity will remain protected, calling the Ram Katha the eternal guardian of Indian civilization.

The event concluded with soulful bhajans by Prembhushan Ji Maharaj, leaving thousands of devotees deeply moved and spiritually uplifted
