I have been associated with Manidweep for the past 17 years. I consider myself very fortunate to be a member of the Manidweep family which has filled my life with joy and happiness.
After coming to Manidweep, life changed completely. I learned the true purpose of our human life. We can progress towards spirituality while living as householders without having to leave anything. I learned to make the best use of time and gained control over my speech. My thinking became positive, and my intellect awakened, allowing me to differentiate between right and wrong and taking the right decision. I also learned the importance of taking care of the physical body. I now think carefully about when, where, and how much to speak in our family and society. I have learned to remain content in every situation. God is our true parent, and by forming a relationship with Him and taking His name with love, I find joy. Maa Basanti explained that a graph is constantly being engraved on our cosmic body according to our virtues and deeds (karmas). On the basis of the quality of this graph, we are assigned our abode in the cosmic world.

Gyanyogi Shri Nandkishore Sharda was a visionary and a profound thinker. Through the Swami Vivekanand Students’ Welfare Charitable Trust, he not only provided financial support to the underprivileged girls in society who were living a life of neglect, helplessness, and complete despair but also gave them a new meaningful life. He firmly believed that education sans moral and human values is meaningless. Hence, he blended human values with education enriched with human dignity, self-confidence, compassion, and the strength to fearlessly face the challenges of the future.

Before coming to Manidweep, I was always plagued by concerns and worries about the uncertainties of future. As a result, I used to get very angry and frustrated, and this had a noticeable impact on my behavior and conduct, and also affected my family life. After coming to Manidweep and having discussions with Maa Basanti Ji and understanding from her, I realized that I should dedicate everything I have done so far to "Maa" and Bhaiya. When I made an effort to implement it, there was a gradual change in my behavior, and my anger decreased significantly. Now, I rarely feel anger, and if it ever arises, it is momentary, lasting for a short while, and my discretion power takes over, allowing me to control myself. I consider this to be a significant achievement in my life after coming here.
