New Delhi, Dec 16 (NationPress) India's cricketing icon Virat Kohli recently visited Vrindavan alongside his wife, Anushka Sharma, engaging in a profound spiritual dialogue with Premanand Ji Maharaj at the Ashram Shri Hit Radha Keli Kunj, located at Varah Ghat.
This visit marks their third pilgrimage to the ashram this year, following their earlier trips in January, which included their children, and another in May, just a day after Kohli declared his retirement from Test cricket.
During the interaction, an emotional Anushka paid close attention as Maharaj Ji imparted wisdom, urging them to view their work as a form of service, to live with seriousness, remain humble, and consistently chant the divine name. He emphasized cultivating a sincere longing to glimpse the Almighty.
Kohli nodded in affirmation as Maharaj Ji highlighted that one should embrace the notion that worldly happiness has already been achieved, and that true fulfillment comes from seeking God, where all joy ultimately resides.
Anushka expressed, “We belong to you, Maharaj ji.” Maharaj Ji responded, “We all belong to Shri Ji. We live under his divine protection. We are all his children.”
Following his retirement from Test and T20 formats, Kohli remains a vital member of the ODI squad, showcasing stellar performance recently. After a challenging phase with back-to-back ducks against Australia in October, he rebounded magnificently with a notable score of 74 not out, leading India to a victory by nine wickets.
His latest appearances included three home ODIs against South Africa, where he was honored as the Player of the Series. Kohli achieved two consecutive centuries in the first and second ODIs and concluded with an unbeaten 65-run performance in the third ODI, helping the Men in Blue secure the series 2-1.
