My Vision and Journey
by Kamlesh Patel (founder, author, and sponsor of Eternalreligion.org)
My Vision
To pursue the truth and spread the scriptural teachings with honesty. No hype and no lies.
The religion of India is called Sanatan-Dharma, which in English is “Eternal Religion’. There are thousands of scriptures in Sanatan-Dharma. The essence of all Sanatan-Dharma knowledge is contained in the Bhagavad-Gita. Due to ignorance and lack of preachings by the Hindus, most people in the world do not know that the Bhagavad-Gita is a universal scripture. Suitable for following in every country of the world. This is because the Bhagavad-Gita teachings comply with USA Constitution/Laws and International Human Rights Laws. The Abrahamic scriptures do not comply.
The core message is to be truthful, be kind to everyone, do our duties well, give up being self-centered, and develop a service to all attitudes.
My Journey
In 2002, I created and started distributing my first Bhagavad-Gita audio recording in English. This was the first Bhagavad-Gita audio recording on the web, and it was made available for free listening. Over the years, I added seven more recordings and placed them online for free listening. Over 100 million people have heard these recordings from Youtube, other sites, CDs, and tapes. Most of the recordings online are placed by others who listened and wanted to share them with others.
Over the years, I have written many unique writings explaining in truth, the teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita, Al-Quran, and the Bible.
In 2016, I opened a Goshala in Agas, Gujarat. To serve old and rejected cows. The cows live a natural life at the Goshala and are not tied up. Some cows are tied up at times for their own their own good. Some cows become pregnant naturally and give milk which is given to the workers and some sold to buy food for cows. The cows are not kept for milking, only to serve them. Compassion is one of the pillars of Sanatan-Dharma and service to cows is one of the important devotional service activities for Vaishnavas (followers of Lord Krishna).
In 2022, my posters were placed at the Vedic Research Institute in Vrindavan (opposite Bhagwat Nivas). There is no entrance fee, and people can learn about human values and Vedic science knowledge based on the Bhagavad-Gita and Shrimad-Bhagavatam. It is very important to get knowledge instead of roaming around the temples and learning nothing. It is knowledge and proper understanding that develops our consciousness, and not by performing rituals and visiting buildings.
