A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF HH SHRI BHOLA NATHJI FROM 1929-1992

Here is my father, HH Shri Bhola Nathji (1902-1992), the Founder of the World Prayer Day, in various pictures taken over the years from 1929 to 1992. Pictures that start with his father, Shri Babaji Maharaj, and his handwritten prophecy of 1926, that declared HH Shri Bhola Nathji to be God upon earth as the Servant of the Earth. Here he is as the handsomest man in the world in his youth as well as middle age and old age till up to the age of 90, when he still retained his unique divine beauty and a divine radiance that shone from his Face all the time.



Here he is shown at diverse places, Mussoorie in the Himalayas, New Delhi, Allahabad, Nagpur, and later in London and in Cambridge Mass USA at Harvard and MIT, here he is shown in Italy with the Catholic fraternity at the Pope's Palace,. Here is his handwritten mission in life:



"I have no mission except Love in this world,

My mission is Love and my work is Love!"



Here he is shown with admirers and devotees who all felt the powerful aura of Love that emanated from him. He was the nearest and dearest loved one of every person upon earth. His personality went beyond religions and unified them all in a garland of Love Divine. Here he is shown in various dresses, the mystical dress with the head bandanna, the golden turban tied like a crown, the dazzling beare headed appearance, a western hat that made him look handsomer than a Hollywood star, and a Middle Eastern Dress that made him appear as if he were from the Middle East, and the Hindu crown, the Mukat, looking like Lord Krishna or Lord Rama.



Here he is shown celebrating the first World Prayer Day in the world which he had founded - calling upon all the people of the world of all faiths to offer prayers for peace ;"Pray wherever you are in whatever way you like, for peace upon earth". Here are his letters to Reagan of the USA and Gorbachev of the USSR urging them to come together in peace and to shun the use of nuclear weapons at a time when the world was on the brink of a nuclear war. And the overnight miraculous conversion of these long time foes into friends in 1986.



Here he is shown writing his mystical Urdu Poems which ran into over 30,000, and which were written when he was very ill between the ages of 80 and 90. Here he is shown bidding his last goodbye to the people of the world on the World Prayer Day of 1992. Here he is shown with his son, Priya Nath Mehta , as in various other pictures of himself and his wife Smt. Savitri Devi (1916-1967) and their two sons, Pran Nath and Priya Nath. Here is his vision of a World Prayer Temple where the places of worship of all faiths are joined together to a central hall of the Universe proceeding along the same path Of Love in their own different paths. And His voice ringing out:



"Even as every night must give place to day, and every Autumn turn to Spring, so it is the voice of my heart that the time will come when One God shall exist for all and all shall be His children, Love shall be his worship and the people of the world will know a never ending peace.."
