Ajit
Bishnoi whose full name is Ajit Kumar Bishnoi lives in Delhi,
India with his wife Geeti and daughter
Pooja. He is a civil engineer with a Master’s Degree in
Building Construction from the University of Florida. After
completing his education, he worked in USA for several
years. He returned
to India in 1972 and started his own business. In the same
year, he got married. The business flourished and his company
became
the top Indian company in the field of dewatering-a construction
related activity. He was blessed with a daughter in 1980.
Various opulences came gradually in the form of wealth,
etc. However, mental peace and happiness eluded him. Searching
for the same, he turned to the book of eternal wisdom – Shrimad-Bhagavad-Geeta.
Looking for answers, he memorized all its seven hundred
verses. In the same period, he came in contact with the
International Society For Krishna Consciousness. Finding
the organization to be extremely useful, he accepted one
of their leaders His Holiness Lokanath Swami as his spiritual
master.
Learning spiritual knowledge from his guru and other similarly
blessed persons, and desiring to know more he decided to
learn Sanskrit and took Mr. Anil Kumar Jha – a Sanskrit
scholar as his teacher. Getting an insight on the verses
in Sanskrit as contained in Bhagavad-Geeta and Shrimad-Bhagavatam,
he began to write for various newspapers and magazines.
His articles have been printed in The Pioneer – an
English daily published from Delhi, Hindustan Times – an
English daily published from Delhi, Punjab Kesari – a
Hindi daily published from Delhi, Milap – a Urdu
daily published from Delhi, and Swagat magazine of Indian
Airlines.
Recently, he has started translating Bhagavad-Geeta with
the help of his Sanskrit teacher. This book shall be special,
very different from all the known various editions of Bhagavad-Geeta
presently available in the market. It would identify the
grammatical form of the words used and provide literal
word meanings ensuring authenticity. Similarly, the Hindi
and English translations shall be matched with the word
meanings allowing for differences in the exclusive style
of the particular language. In addition, the verses shall
further tried to be explained, clarified, illustrated,
and exemplified as regards to the philosophy contained
in them with the help of mainly stories, incidents, etc
such that common man will be able to read the same and
understand the wisdom contained in this great book.
Mr. Bishnoi is a practicing preacher for the last several
years. He regularly gives spiritual discourses in various
ISKCON centers besides in various offices and schools.
It is Mr. Bishnoi’s realization that search for peace
culminates in spiritual knowledge, that is one must be
connected to God to be able to be peaceful.
Website - Mr. Bishnoi considers himself to be just like
anyone else and therefore feels that others similarly placed
and not peaceful could take advantage of his realizations.
This website is being created for sharing the spiritual
knowledge which he has obtained from the scripture like
Bhagavad-Geeta and from spiritually advanced persons like
Shrila Prabhupada - the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON.
His articles being printed in the various news papers are
towards the same purpose. All the articles thus for printed
have been included in this website. Further articles as
they are printed shall be posted also. The language used
in these articles is very simple and easily understandable
even though the topics dealt with are spiritual, that is
the highest. The solutions offered are mostly based on
Bhagavad-Geeta and attempt has been made to synthesize
the modern with the ancient or spiritual.
One can search for solutions to various problems by typing
the problem, e.g. anger and the corresponding article shall
appear.
