In a state wherein padayatras are deeply woven into the material of its civilizational legacy. The heir to India’s most prosperous family has set out on a spiritual journey on foot, echoing this age-old Indian subculture of seeking communion with the divine. Anant Ambani, 29, embarked on a 180-kms padayatra on March 29. The devotion journey starts from Jamnagar, his ancestral hometown, towards the sacred Dwarkadhish Temple in Dwarka. Walking 20 kms an afternoon for 6 to 7 hours. He is anticipated to reach the holy destination spot by April 8—one day before his 30th birthday.
Anant Ambani Journey to devotion
This is not any ceremonial march. It is an act of pure devotion—a presenting of the body, mind, and spirit to Lord Krishna. With every step, Anant, a scion of India’s wealthiest family, surrenders to the grace of Dwarkadhish and beliefs of Sanatan Dharma. His stroll is not about making a statement; it’s around looking for the divine in stillness, solitude, and sweat.
What makes this journey really amazing is that Anant undertakes it while grappling with Cushing’s Syndrome—an unprecedented hormonal sickness, morbid weight problems and life conditions, includes allergies and severe lung disease.
Anant welcomed by local groups
As Anant Ambani walks this sacred route, he warmly welcomed through local groups. Many have joined him alongside stretches of the course, whilst others have supplied prayers, advantages, or devotional keepsakes in honor of Lord Dwarkadhish.
Two reputable non secular figures also lent assistance with their presence, includes Dhirendra Shastri, the top priest of Bageshwar Dham known for his popular discourses and outreach to teens throughout India, and Rasraj Maharaj, a revered Vaishnavacharya and non secular trainer related with the Pushtimarg tradition.
