"A darshan for me feels like a rendezvous for the heart to meet its long lost friend. It’s Gurujis way to open our hearts. With an open heart we can hear him talking with each beat vibrating the love never felt before.
With an open heart, everything else in my life aligned to what the heart wanted. If we do what the heart wants, we’re truly being guided by Guruji and with his guidance, the relationship with God becomes conscious. It becomes intimate and sweet.
Life becomes colorful and its purpose deep. Everything has it’s divine timing, but if I can tell you from experience, don’t waste time and give your heart a chance to rejoice in Gurujis presence."
"Darshan is a blessing that goes beyond the boundaries of the mind.
When I received Darshan from Paramahamsa Vishwananada, my mind could not comprehend what I was feeling and the intensity of it - but I felt more love than I have ever experienced or even thought possible. Darshan awoke in me, that deep longing for connection with God - whom is the ultimate source of love."
“For my first blessing, I had to travel 4,000 miles to meet Paramahamsa Vishwananda.
But in that moment when He looked into my eyes, it felt like time stopped. I entered into this space that was not possible to achieve on my own. You can do whatever practice or meditation…but it doesn’t take you there. In that moment, my heart was beating, but it felt so peaceful. It felt like home."
“With these soul experiences, it is something indescribable.
The only way to describe it is: it is so beautiful. There is so much love there. It’s the most love I ever felt in my life -ever”
“When Paramahamsa Vishwananda looked into my eyes I felt nothing but unconditional love!
I realized my biggest spiritual block is that I view myself as unworthy due to past sins or mistakes. Yet even though he could see all of that he continued to look into my eyes with love and acceptance and I knew that if I can just see myself as he sees me in that moment then I can really align myself rightly with the divine will for me. This realization has helped me to begin feeling worthy and a part of instead of unworthy or less then. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
“Life is filled with so many experiences, but nothing compares with Darshan.
In the moment of Darshan, everything in my life that ever made me think I was not lovable, or guard my heart, melt away by looking in Guruji’s eyes. It’s something that stays with you far after Darshan is over.”
“It’s different for everyone. But for me it was a very spiritual, peaceful experience.
I got a sense of joy and happiness and even felt euphoric afterwards. It gave me inner peace and calmness.”
