Obituary

He is survived by his mother Mrs Alka Waghmare, elder sister Mrs Dhanashree Deshpande, niece Miss Sayali Deshpande, and nephew Master Shrinivas Deshpande – all of whom too reside at Sanatan’s Ramnathi Ashram and are full-time seekers engaged in spiritual practice.

The Sanatan family offers a prayer at the Holy feet of Bhagwan Shrikrushna for the departed Mr Dhaiwat Waghmare to attain Sadgati (Further momentum towards Final Liberation).

Mr Dhaiwat Waghmare, An Ideal Example of Persevering in Spiritual Practice Despite Severe Distress

“Mr Dhaiwat Waghmare passed away unexpectedly. He had begun full-time spiritual practice in 1999. From 2003 onwards, he started experiencing intense distress due to negative energies. The severity of this distress was such that it endangered his very life on numerous occasions.

Yet, due to his deep yearning for spiritual growth and the resulting Divine grace that supported him, he overcame those crises. It was his warrior-like attitude that enabled him to endure and overcome the intense spiritual distress.

For several years, he also served alongside me in compiling texts for Sanatan’s Holy Texts. Whether it was computer repairs or compiling content for publishing, he performed all his sevas (selfless services) sincerely and efficiently.

Through 25 years of spiritual practice, Dhaiwat has set an ideal for all seekers – that even amidst severe spiritual distress, one can continue intense spiritual practice.

Owing to the seeker quality within him, his spiritual progress was noteworthy, and I am certain it will continue even henceforth.”
