Recently, a deeply moving incident involving Premanand Maharaj Ji, a renowned saint from Mathura-Vrindavan, left many in deep thought and admiration. During a gathering, a man opened up about a very personal truth in front of the saint, surprising everyone present. However, the way Premanand Maharaj Ji responded—with compassion, wisdom, and spiritual clarity—won everyone’s heart.
Man Who Had Relations with 150 Men Seeks Guidance
During the session, a man approached Premanand Maharaj Ji and revealed that he is homosexual. He admitted to having had sexual relations with over 150 men and said he was now feeling distressed and confused. Seeking spiritual guidance, he asked what he should do next.
Rather than reacting with shock or judgment, Premanand Maharaj Ji listened with an open mind and responded in a way that reflected deep spiritual insight and empathy.
Premanand Maharaj Ji’s Compassionate Response
After hearing the man’s confession, Premanand Maharaj Ji said,
“There is nothing to hide or feel ashamed of. Just as one should not hide their illness from a doctor, one should not hesitate to speak openly with their guru.”
He added:
“We believe that you are under the special grace of God. You have no attachment to women. If you choose not to engage in sexual acts with men anymore, you have the potential to become a spiritually enlightened being.”
A Spiritual Path Instead of Shame
Premanand Ji continued by offering a deeper explanation:
“Throughout history, many who walked the spiritual path faced defeat due to their attraction to women. It is written in the scriptures. But you do not have that natural attraction, which means you already have a unique spiritual opportunity.”
He then asked the man to reflect:
“What have these experiences truly brought you? Only fear and anxiety, not happiness. If you start chanting God’s name and practice some self-control, you can become a truly good and fulfilled person.”
Words That Touched Everyone Present
The spiritual wisdom and warmth in Premanand Maharaj Ji’s response deeply moved everyone in the gathering. Devotees nodded in agreement, and even the man who had come seeking help seemed visibly relieved and satisfied with the guidance he received.
It’s worth noting that Premanand Maharaj Ji often receives visitors struggling with personal and emotional hardships. He listens with patience and offers solutions rooted in spirituality, helping many find clarity and peace in their lives.
