Journey to Mahakali's Grace: A Spiritual Expedition to Pavagadh

Hello everyone, and welcome to my Journey to Pavagadh.

Today's blog is going to be about my travel experience. This Sunday, I visited Pavagadh, which is near my city. Despite living in Vadodara, this was my first time visiting Pavagadh.


I went with my Massi, and in the early morning, we set out for the journey. We caught the bus from the station directly to Pavagadh. The bus first went to Halol and then to Pavagadh. From Pavagadh, we had to go up to Manchi, and another bus took us there.


Manchi is the starting point where all the devotees begin their journey to meet Mahakali. The journey to the top is not as easy as it seems; it's quite challenging. We sat at various places, took small breaks, had energy drinks, engaged in discussions, and then resumed our journey to the top. I am not sure about the total number of stairs in the climb.


During my ascent, I saw many devotees heading to meet Mahakali with their own trust and belief—some to ask for something, some to thank Mahakali, and myself to seek her blessings so that I can achieve great things.


I observed couples placing diyas on every stair, performing a ritual as a promise they made once Mahakali fulfills their wish. When I saw the temple for the first time, it was truly beautiful and well-maintained. I had so much to express, and I became numb just by her sight, as if she took away all my worries.


It felt like destiny that after so many years, this was my first visit—maybe Maa called me herself.

Reflecting on Change as the Year Ends

Writing something new has always been an exciting task for me, but doing it on the last night of the year makes it even more special. Another year has passed—survived bravely, and many more lie ahead. It’s amazing to realize that those born in 2000 and 2001 are now adults, some even getting married! Wow, we’ve grown up, haven’t we? Since 2019, it feels like time has been speeding up, with one year blending into the next before we can fully process it. What’s even more surprising is how the next generation, younger than the 2000s, seems to be moving even faster. These rascals are tying the knot before some of us! But when we compare ourselves to older generations, it’s clear they’ve witnessed far more changes than we ever have. Let me explain. Back in their time, there wasn’t widespread access to proper TVs, mobile phones, or computers. They had more time but fewer resources, so they had to utilize their time and strength wisely to save money. Today, we live in an entirely different era...
