Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale’s words of praise for seekers who became Saints this month

Pujya (Mrs) Anjali Karambelkar

Mrs Anjali Karambelkar becomes the 133rd Samashti Saint of Sanatan, with qualities of obedience, deep yearning for seva, devotion, and communion with God

Mrs Anjali Hanumant Karambelkar from Ratnagiri has been performing spiritual practice under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha since 1998.  Cheerful and enthusiastic by temperament, she has an intense yearning to spread Spirituality and Dharma.

Whenever some guidance is published in the Dainik Sanatan Prabhat, she diligently and wholeheartedly strives to follow it. She is a living example of the zeal with which Dharma should be spread. Whether travelling, attending a marriage or thread ceremony, in hospitals, or during various efforts to spread Spirituality at different places, her skill and dedication in spreading Dharma are truly commendable.

Her devotion and positive attitude naturally evoke a positive response from others. Due to her sincere vyashti (Individual) and samashti (Collective) spiritual practice, she constantly experiences that God Himself is accompanying her in spreading Dharma. Setting a high goal and taking God’s support while performing satseva, she continually experiences that it is God Himself who is fulfilling this mission of spreading Dharma.

With qualities such as obedience, constant pursuit of Truth, devotion, and an intense desire to take Spirituality to every household, Mrs Karambelkar attained the spiritual level of 61% in 2013, thus transcending the cycles of birth and death. She has progressed fast spiritually since then, and now, she has attained the spiritual level of 71% to become the 133^rd Samashti Saint of Sanatan.

Her husband, Mr Hanumant Karambelkar (Age 74), is also performing  spiritual practice, and his spiritual level is 66%.

I am certain that in future too, Pujya (Mrs) Anjali Hanumant Karambelkar will progress spiritually at a rapid pace.

Pujya Ravindra Gondhalekar

Introverted, perfect in performing satseva, and longing for spiritual practice to reach all people in society –Mr Ravindra Gondhalekar (Age 81) attains the spiritual level of 71% and becomes Sanatan’s 134th Saint

Mr Ravindra Gondhalekar, originally from Akola and residing in Pune for the past few years, began spiritual practice under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha in 1997. From the very beginning, he showed seriousness in his spiritual practice. Once he understood the importance of satseva, he immediately immersed himself in it. He is always ready to perform any type of satseva.

With the feeling that every person he meets has come by God’s wish, he encourages everyone to engage in spiritual practice and chanting.

Even at this age, he continues to perform all types of satseva – contacting spiritual aspirants, distributing Sanatan’s Periodicals, giving in-depth explanations of Texts, and distributing them with absolute dedication.

Due to his qualities of thinking about others, neatness, self-discipline, detachment, and introversion, he approaches worldly responsibilities as his satseva. These qualities have led to his rapid spiritual progress. In 2014, Mr Gondhalekar attained the  spiritual level of 63%, thus getting liberated from the cycles of birth and death.

Through spiritual practice, his introversion deepened, and he now remains in a peaceful, stable, and thought-free state. On the occasion of Guru Purnima 2025, his spiritual level was 69%. Today, he has attained the spiritual level of 71%, and become Sanatan’s 134^th Vyashti Saint.

His entire family is engaged in spiritual practice. His wife, Mrs Rajeshree Gondhalekar (Age 76), is at the spiritual level of 67%, and their three daughters are also sincerely pursuing spiritual practice.

Have Pujya Ravindra Gondhalekar’s spiritual practice as your ideal and strive with deep yearning in your own sadhana (Spiritual practice).

Pujya Varsha Bhide

With obedience, intense yearning for spiritual practice, and gratitude towards God – Mrs Varsha Vilas Bhide (Age 73) attains the spiritual level of 71% and becomes Sanatan’s 135th Saint

Mrs Varsha Vilas Bhide from Pune has been performing sadhana (Spiritual practice) under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha since 1996. Soon after beginning sadhana, she had a major spiritual experience. Due to satsangs and chanting, she was able to avoid undergoing an angioplasty, a heart-related surgical procedure. This Divine intervention was possible because of her obedience and sincere spiritual practice.

Her unique quality is obedience. She abides by all the guidance published in Dainik Sanatan Prabhat. She had detached herself from worldly life, and made her entire life Sanatan-oriented.

Even in adverse circumstances, she remains positive and grateful, viewing life from a spiritual perspective. Her deep yearning for satseva ensures that even while staying at home, she performs as much satseva as possible and helps seekers with their individual spiritual practice. Her humility, steadiness, willingness to seek guidance, and devotion to God have accelerated her spiritual progress.

In 2013, Mrs Bhide attained the spiritual level of 61%. On Guru Purnima 2025, her level was 69%. On this auspicious day, she has reached the spiritual level of 71%, and become Sanatan’s 135^th Vyashti Saint. Her late husband, Prof. Vilas Bhide (Age 74), also performed spiritual practice under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha. At the time of his passing away, his spiritual level was 64%.

Benefit at the spiritual level from the Sainthood of Pujya (Mrs) Varsha Bhide.
