There
are times in all our lives, when we desire
the need for divine intervention; times,
when life refuses to acknowledge the seemingly
obvious and decides to take refuge in a
world that is far away from ours. A world
that gives the body and mind the spiritual
healing that it yearns for. We, at Telly
Chakkar.com decided to delve deeper into
the lives of our favourite stars and know
a little about their lives beyond the obvious.
Define God?
I am sure that God is a female because
of the mystery revolving around this supernatural
power. Females are strange and mysterious
and so is God. On a serious note, God is
that supreme power who guides all of us
but it is us who choose the path that we
follow. The ones who follow the path of
truth are God-fearing and the others who
just choose to ignore His sayings and preaching
are the ones who fail in the longer run.
We often feel that people who always follow
the path of truth bear miseries and pain
but this is untrue as they are God’s special
children who carry His messages across the
world.
What
is spirituality to you?
For me spirituality is that one hour of
praying in the morning. It is during this
time that I feel closest to God. I can tell
him anything that I want to. This is the
time when I bare it all to God be it good
or bad. It gives me a sense of relief.
What special bond/connection do you
feel with God and your inner-self?
I think my bond with Him is very sacred.
He knows all my secrets and listens to all
my problems. He knows me inside-out. This
is a bond which never gets severed not atleast
from God’s side, no matter how much I forget
him during my happy days.
How much do you believe in the magic
and power of prayers?
I completely believe in the magic of prayers.
When certain prayers go unanswered then
it means that you deserve better than what
you have asked for.
Who do you credit for your ability to
overcome the hurdles, if any?
I obviously would credit God for my ability
to overcome problems but along with that
I must admit that my experience has taught
me many lessons. The way I have dealt with
the problems in the past teach me how to
encounter the problems that I face today
or may face in the future.
What kind of books do you read? Especially
to get connected to God and your spiritual
side?
I like to read philosophical books and
I especially like Eric Segal. I don’t think
books teach you much about God. Its your
experience and meeting the right kind of
people and absorbing the right kind of information
that brings you closer to your spiritual
side.
What do you do on a daily basis to remain
connected to God and your inner-self?
I pray to Him daily though I would hate
to admit that I do it at my convinience.
Astrology, numerology and tarot reading?
Have you taken help of such occult sciences?
I am a tarot reader myself. This implies
that I do believe in these occult sciences
Do you fast?
I used to fast every Monday till 2004 but
I have taken to sickness and acidity and
hence I stopped observing fasts.
Follow rituals?
Though not a hardcore ritual follower but
I do follow whatever is required.
What is your comfort zone?
My comfort zone is my bed-room where I
unwind by sleeping.
What keeps you going?
The thought that the next day will be a
better day keeps me going.
Any wish/votive that you would want
God to fulfill?
I just want God to be with me, guide me
all the time. There is nothing else I will
need.
