Namaste my beloved friends and a very special loving hug to all my close followers, all my spiritual companions, all those beautiful souls who continue walking with me through light and darkness, through karma and grace, through struggle and awakening.
Today I want to speak to you about a very rare, auspicious and very powerful spiritual opening. Because 19th April 2026 is not an ordinary day.
On this sacred day, Tritiya begins. The divine energy of Akshay Tritiya awakens. Lord Parashuram Jayanti is also celebrated on this very same day.
Venus enters Taurus in its own sign on this very same day. A beautiful cosmic indication of stability, grace, prosperity, attraction, nourishment and blessings in worldly life.
So naturally this becomes a very important day for all those who are praying for a good job, who are praying for growth in business, who are praying for a suitable marriage partner and those who are praying for more peace in relationships, financial stability and a life that feels more settled, more blessed and more aligned.
But my dear friends, to truly receive the blessing of a sacred day, one must first understand its consciousness.
Because the moment you understand the consciousness of a Tithi, your ritual stops being mechanical, your prayer stops being dry, your mantra stops being just sound and your offering becomes alive.
And that is what I want to do today.
I want to help you understand not only what to do on this special day but also why this day carries such unusual spiritual power.
The word Akshay means that which does not diminish, that which does not get exhausted, that which keeps flowing, that which carries the blessing of continuity.
So this is not merely a day of outer celebration, this is not merely a day to buy something auspicious.
This is a day that reminds us of a very deep truth.
Whatever is done today with purity, sincerity, devotion, gratitude and dharmic intention gains unusual strength.
A prayer offered today carries force.
A sankalpa made today carries momentum.
A charity done today carries blessing.
A spiritual act done today continues to shine.
This is why this day has always been so loved by seekers, householders, business people, spiritual aspirants and families alike.
Because every human being wants the same thing, not temporary relief but lasting blessings.
And that is exactly what Akshay Trutiya quietly promises.
Now let us go deeper.
This is the third lunar day of the waxing moon.
The moon is increasing, light is increasing, shakti is increasing, movement is increasing and this is very important.
The first day is the emergence.
The second day, Dvitiya, is the meeting of two energies.
And the third day is where movement starts gaining beauty, rhythm and direction.
That is Trutiya.
Three is never an ordinary number in spiritual life.
Creation itself expresses through sacred tribes.
Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh.
Satvaguna, Rajasaguna, Tamasaguna.
Body, mind, soul.
Past, present, future.
So Trutiya is not just third in count.
Trutiya is where energy begins to become purposeful.
That is why this tithi carries the vibration of growth with grace.
Victory through right alignment.
Help for new beginnings.
Support in relationships.
Expansion in wealth and comfort.
An auspicious movement in practical life.
And because this is Shukla Paksha Trutiya, the energy is naturally rising.
It is as if existence itself says, now begin, now move, now plant the seed, now let grace support you.
But my dear friends, let us not stop at outer prosperity only.
Because outer prosperity without inner maturity can become another burden.
The deeper question of Akshaya Trutiya is this.
What in you is deathless?
What in you is untouched by praise and criticism?
What in you remains steady even when life keeps changing?
And here comes a very important spiritual truth.
The greatest suffering of human life begins when a person becomes obsessed with doership.
I am doing everything. I am controlling everything. I alone am making things happen.
And the greatest relief begins when one starts to understand I am not the final doer. I am only an instrument.
Remember this.
Bhagwan Ramana Maharshi says so beautifully.
The present difficulty is that man thinks he is the doer.
But it is a mistake.
It is the higher power which does everything and man is only a tool.
If he accepts that position, then he is free from all troubles.
Otherwise, he creates them.
What a profound truth.
The moment you stop carrying the arrogance of doership, the burden on your mind begins to reduce.
Your effort remains, but your suffering begins to change.
And this is why Akshaya Trutiya is not only a day to ask for money, job, marriage and success.
It is also a day to pray for freedom from false doership.
Pray for prosperity, yes, but also pray for purity.
Pray for wisdom, pray for right action.
Pray that whatever comes into your life comes with grace and not with poison hidden behind it.
An avatar, Meher Baba, through his silence and love reminds us that the soul becomes lighter not by egoic control, but by surrender, honesty and love toward the divine.
Now let us come to the glory of Lord Parashuram.
Lord Parashuram is not an easy divine personality to understand.
He is not decorative spirituality.
He is not sentimental spirituality.
He is not meant for those who only want softness without truth.
Parashuram is dharma in fierce action.
He is the sixth immortal avatar of Lord Vishnu, born to Sage Jamadagdi and Mother Renuka, a Brahmin by birth but carrying the fire of a warrior.
He is the meeting point of knowledge and force, tapas and action, wisdom and courage, silence and destruction of adharma.
That is why Lord Parashuram is so extraordinary.
He holds the parshu, the divine axe.
But the axe is not only for outer battle.
That axe is for cutting ego, arrogance, corruption, adharmic pride, injustice and the darkness that power creates when it loses humility.
That is why Lord Parashuram cannot be understood superficially.
Many great teachers of non-violence came from the Kshatriya lineage and then here is Parashuram, born a Brahmin yet moving with terrifying force when dharma demanded correction.
And this is where witnessing becomes such a deep subject.
A person may appear calm outside and still be full of poison within.
Another may appear fierce outside and yet remain inwardly unattached, clear and deeply established in witnessing.
So the truth of action is not only in what is seen outside.
The truth of action lies in the consciousness behind it.
And that is why the life of Lord Parashuram is so profound.
He reminds us that witnessing does not always look passive.
Sometimes witnessing acts.
Sometimes witnessing cuts.
Sometimes witnessing protects dharma through force.
This is exactly the teaching Lord Krishna later gives to Arjuna in the Gita.
Act but do not drown in doership.
Fight if dharma demands it but do not become egoically identified with action.
Be the instrument, not the claimant.
And that is why the greatness of Parashuram is beyond words.
He is not merely a mythological warrior.
He is a spiritual thunderbolt.
He is a reminder that purity is not weakness.
He is a reminder that witnessing is not laziness.
He is a reminder that truth does not always come wrapped in softness.
Sometimes divine grace comes like peace.
Sometimes divine grace comes like love.
Sometimes it comes like silence.
And sometimes it comes carrying an axe.
Lord Parashuram is also Chiranjeevi.
He is one of the Chiranjeevis, the immortals.
This is not just mythology to be admired from a distance.
It means his force is still available.
His consciousness is still alive.
His presence can still be invoked by those who call upon him with sincerity, austerity, devotion and courage.
Whenever arrogance rises beyond limit, whenever power becomes abusive, whenever adharma becomes shameless, the Parashuram principle becomes active.
And not just outside in the world, inside you also there are inner tyrants.
There is ego.
There is anger.
There is self-deception.
There is pride.
There is violence in thought.
There is misuse of speech.
There is inner impurity.
So the highest prayer to Lord Parashuram is not destroy my enemies.
The highest prayer is, O Lord Parashuram, destroy in me that which stands against truth.
That prayer can transform a life.
And so, on this special occasion, I also want to lovingly mention the beautiful and ancient Sri Kshetra Parashuram temple near Chiplun in the Konkan region of Maharashtra.
The entire land carries the fragrance of Parashuram’s presence.
The temple is deeply sacred, powerful and spiritually moving.
It is believed that this region itself is linked to Lord Parashuram’s grace and his connection with the western coastline.
So if ever you get the chance to visit this beautiful temple, do not go merely as a tourist.
Go as a seeker.
It is a beautiful temple. I had been once almost 10 years ago.
So when you go, sit quietly, offer your pranam, become inwardly silent.
Ask Lord Parashuram to remove falsehood from your life.
Ask him to cut ego, not your peace.
Ask him to give you strength without cruelty, courage without arrogance and action without bondage.
That prayer, if it comes from the heart, can do wonders.
And now, my friends, let’s begin with the predictions for this beautiful Venus transit in Taurus.
On 19th April 2026, Venus enters Taurus, its own sign.
This is a very positive and soothing shift because Venus governs love, marriage, relationships, beauty, comfort, luxury, agreement, finances, sweetness, art, harmony and the ability to enjoy life with grace.
And Taurus is a sign of stability, value, earthiness, resources, sustenance, material comfort and practical security.
So when Venus enters Taurus, its blessings begin to express more naturally, more smoothly and more beautifully.
This can be a wonderful signal for those who are praying for job opportunities, career stability, business improvement, marriage discussions, relationship healing, financial grounding and a calmer, more graceful life.
This transit of Venus says, what was shaky can begin to stabilise, what was delayed can begin to move, what was emotionally dry can begin to soften, what was uncertain can begin to take a beautiful shape.
Now let me tell you in a simple and heartfelt way what you can do on this sacred day.
Wake up with gratitude.
After bath, wear clean and pleasant clothes.
Light colours are beautiful for this day.
Sit quietly for a few moments and make a heartfelt sankalpa.
Pray, may all actions done by me today become pure. May they bring lasting blessings. May Lord Vishnu, Mahalakshmi and Lord Parashuram bless my life with Dharma, peace, prosperity, clarity and inner strength. May my ego reduce and my witnessing increase.
Then prepare your puja space.
Light a diya using cow’s ghee.
Offer incense stick.
Keep fresh water, flowers, fruits and some rice.
If you have an image or murti of Vishnu, Lakshmi or Lakshmi Narayan or Lord Parashuram, keep it with respect.
And then chant with devotion.
Chant this mantra 108 times.
Pray from the heart, chant from the heart.
If you are seeking marriage, pray for a right alliance filled with respect, loyalty and dharmic harmony.
If you are seeking career growth, pray for right doors, right opportunities and right people.
If you are seeking business growth, pray for stable growth, trustworthy support and wise decisions.
Then sit quietly and invoke Lord Parashuram.
O Lord Parashuram, remover of arrogance and protector of dharma, cut away all falsehood, fear, weakness and obstacles from my life. Bless me with discipline, clarity, strength and righteous action.
And then comes a very important part of Akshaya Trutiya.
Please do something according to your capacity and budget.
Offer food, offer grains, offer clothes, offer fruits, feed cows, birds or poor people.
Help someone silently.
Do not give with ego.
Do not give for show.
Give with gratitude.
Because what is offered without ego becomes luminous.
And yes, if you wish to buy something auspicious on this day, you may do so.
But let me say this clearly.
Do not create debt to appear spiritual.
The highest gold you can acquire on Akshaya Trutiya is punya.
And punya is earned through prayer, through chanting, through charity and through humility.
And so, remember, be grateful and whatsoever you do, do it with right positive intention.
Also, try to avoid anger, harsh speech, gossip, arguments, intoxication, manipulation and unnecessary negativity on this day.
Let the mind remain cleaner than usual.
That itself is worship.
And try to avoid non-veg food on this beautiful auspicious day.
Now, I want to tell you a very beautiful hidden ritual.
Sit alone for 5 minutes, close your eyes and ask yourself, where in my life am I still acting as the false doer?
Where am I carrying a burden that belongs to God?
Where is my ego creating disturbance?
What inner arrogance must Lord Parashuram cut away from me?
Then just watch.
Do not force an answer.
Do not mentally struggle.
Just watch.
Because the blessing of Akshaya Trutiya is not only about gaining more, it is also about stopping the leakage of blessings.
Sometimes, life is not lacking grace.
Sometimes, grace is leaking through ego, poor choices, emotional excess, pride, wrong speech and inner impurity.
So, on this day, pray not only for more blessings, but also for fewer leakages.
That is wisdom.
That is spiritual maturity.
That is how prosperity becomes sustainable.
