In a video that has been shared on a social media platform, Premanand Ji Maharaj has shared some tips to change one's life for the better in one year. Responding to a question by a devotee, Premanand Ji Maharaj advised, 'Try this and you will see the change yourself. You will change in one year. Your face will change, your life will change. Increase your spiritual power by doing 'naam jap' (chanting god's name). Do exercise and eat pure-healthy food to increase your stamina. You will turn powerful. Your life will change in one year.' Premanand Maharaj lives in a place called Kelikunj in Vrindavan, where he guides people through his spiritual discourses. Devotees come to him with their questions, and he answers them in a simple, easy-to-understand manner.

Over the years, many cricketers and Bollywood celebrities have met him. Recently, a video of Maharaj Ji went viral in which a devotee asked him whether it is possible to change one's destiny.

Good fortune, he said, is shaped by righteous actions, which can erase the negative deeds of past lives and lead to progress. Saint Shri Hit Premanand hails from Kanpur district. His father's name is Shambhu Pandey and his mother's name is Ram Devi. His spiritual guru is Shri Gaurangi Sharan Ji Maharaj. Premanand Maharaj recalls that he began reciting the Bhagavad Gita while in the fifth grade. At a young age, he moved to Kashi and eventually took sanyas (renunciation).

Father Of Pahalgam Attack Victim Meets Premanand Maharaj, Seeks Spiritual Solace
Last Updated: Premanand Maharaj empathised with their sorrow, saying losing a son is the greatest pain, like King Dasharath's grief for Lord Rama in the Ramayana The family of Shubham Dwivedi, who was tragically killed in the Pahalgam terror attack, made an emotional visit to Vrindavan to meet Saint Premanand Maharaj. Shubham's wife Aishanya, father Sanjay Dwivedi, and mother were present during the heartfelt meeting. The family sought blessings from Maharaj and shared their sorrow, reflecting on their loss. Reports indicated that Shubham's father wondered why the tragedy happened despite his son's strong faith. Premanand Maharaj offered comforting words, explaining that such events are part of God's plan. The meeting lasted about 10 minutes. Sources said that Aishanya, moved by memories of her husband, became emotional. The family reportedly recounted the details of the attack, explaining how terrorists killed Shubham after questioning his religion during their holiday in Pahalgam in April. Reports suggested that Premanand Maharaj empathised with their sorrow, acknowledging that the separation from a son or loved one is the greatest agony, drawing parallels to King Dasharath's grief for Lord Rama in the Ramayana. According to the reports, Maharaj emphasised that Shubham's death is a significant loss but also part of divine law that must be accepted. He shared that the incident had distressed him for days and, now, recalling the scene brought back the pain. He explained that birth and death are predetermined, and Shubham's passing was inevitable according to destiny. Accepting this truth, he said, is essential for finding peace. To provide mental strength, Premanand Maharaj recommended ' Naam Jap ', advising the family to remember and meditate on God to alleviate their sorrow. His comforting words reportedly brought tears to their eyes but also instilled a sense of spiritual peace. According to reports, the visit to Vrindavan was a quest for mental support and spiritual solace for Shubham's family. The blessings of the saint reportedly offered them some relief, and they returned with renewed hope, determined to live their lives with patience and faith while cherishing Shubham's memory. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

'A Girl Who's Been With 4 Men Can't...': Premanand Maharaj Faces Backlash Over Remarks
A fresh controversy has erupted around prominent saint Premanand Maharaj after a video of his latest sermon went viral, triggering sharp criticism across social media and civil society circles. In the clip, Maharaj makes sweeping comments about young men and women, suggesting their past relationships render them unfit for marriage. (News18 Hindi) Referring to the "character" of today's youth, Maharaj said that a boy who has been with four girls will never be satisfied with his wife, because he has become used to adultery. And, a girl who has been with four men has no courage left to accept a husband, he added. "Out of 100, hardly two or four girls are such who live a pious life and are dedicated to one man," he said. (News18 Hindi) 3/6 The remarks have drawn immediate backlash, with critics calling them "regressive", "sexist", and "deeply harmful to women". Several compared them to a similar controversy involving storyteller Aniruddhacharya, who earlier this year made derogatory statements about women that also sparked protests. (News18 Hindi) Social media platforms lit up with divided reactions. While some conservative voices defended the comments as a "reminder to uphold Indian culture", the majority labelled them "a dangerous moral policing exercise" cloaked in religious authority. (News18 Hindi) Women's rights groups didn't hold back either. The president of a Mathura-based women's collective said that such mindset judges women by their past, whereas society should recognise them by their present and humanity. Other activists warned that such statements could reinforce patriarchal narratives and justify discrimination under the guise of preserving tradition. (News18 Hindi)
