Pune (Maharashtra) – Mrs. Sarita Arun Palande (Age 76) renounced her body on 31st May 2021 while suffering from cancer and cardiac arrest. She had firm faith in God and performed spiritual practice by gladly accepting any situation.
A ‘spiritual mother’ for all seekers
Mrs. Palande performed spiritual practice for 24 years. Since she had assimilated every teaching in spiritual practice, she was living Spirituality itself. She imprinted religious sanskars on her entire family.
To fulfill the purpose of her life, she made efforts herself and helped others too. She would perform satseva wholeheartedly and happily. The virtues of Prembhav, caring for others and helping them made her a ‘spiritual mother’ for all seekers.
She accepted the Principle – ‘Welcome everything because it is happening as per our destiny’. Some months ago, she was diagnosed as having cancer, which she accepted as part of her destiny that was to be endured. She used to be happy even after undergoing surgery. Her body-awareness was minimum due to her blissful state. She practiced what Saint Bhaktaraj Maharaj had said – ‘Leave the body to destiny, connect your subconsciousness with Chaitanya (Divine consciousness)’.
Her virtues such as obedience, being in a learning mode and the attitude of accepting any situation led to her rapid spiritual progress. At the time of Gurupournima in 2020, her spiritual level was 68%. Besides cancer, she suffered a cardiac arrest and passed away. Her communion with God and gratitude led to her spiritual progress even in her illness. She reached the spiritual level of 71% and became Sanatan’s 108th Saint. I am certain that she will continue to progress fast spiritually. – Paratpar Guru (Dr.) Athavale
