However, many people must have been a little uncomfortable with his order, because wearing watches and rings is common in today’s luxurious life. In such a situation, let us know for whom this message of Sant Premanand Maharaj is for.
Premanand Maharaj’s message
In one of his sermons, Maharaj Ji said – “After today, do not wear a watch or a ring. To check the time, keep the watch in your pocket, do not wear it in your hand. Any kind of external adornment is to be discarded, especially when you are walking on the spiritual path.”
According to Maharaj Ji, wearing metal jewelery like gold ring, chain or bracelet is prohibited in the scriptures and saint tradition. These are considered symbols of physical attractions and sensual desires, which can create obstacles in the path of spiritual practice.
Why avoid external makeup?
Premanand Maharaj said that the saints are of the opinion that external decoration increases the sense of ego and show off. Due to this, the mind’s attention gets entangled in the material world and the distance from introspection and spiritual practice increases. Metal ornaments inspire a person towards worldly pleasures.
Who should not wear jewellery?
Premanand Maharat, the famous saint of Vrindavan, said that those who are following sadhana, devotion and celibacy, those who are moving towards ascetic life or spiritual progress, and those who want to follow the teachings of the Guru and the scriptures, they should not wear such jewellery.
What is the ornament of a true seeker?
According to Premanand Maharaj, Tulsi rosary is the real ornament of a true seeker. Tulsi is considered a symbol of devotion, purity and love for Lord Vishnu. Therefore a true seeker should wear a rosary of Tulsi.
