ENTER THOU WITHIN THESE DOORS

HH Shri Bhola Nathji, (1902-1992) my Father,
was the Founder of the World Prayer Day for Peace.

He lived only for the sake of others, for the sake of the humanity around him, and had no purpose of his own in life. He was like a candle that burnt in fire only to give light to others.

He was ready to meet anyone at any time of the day or night. He kept an open house. There were no appointment hours. He would leave everything he was doing, even give up his food or daily ablutions, to meet anyone who came to see him at any time. Though people saw the Glory of God in him, he called himself:

"The Servant of the Earth" - "Slave of all of Humanity."

He gave peace and happiness to countless people relieving them of their sorrows and sufferings and blessing them from the depths of his heart.

And this was the Verse he often quoted in Persian:

"Be-hijaabaanaa daraa az dare Kaashaanaya maa
Ke kase nest vajuz darde to dar Khaanaye maa"

which when translated into English means:

"ENTER THOU WITHIN THESE DOORS WITHOUT THE LEAST BIT OF HESITATION,
FOR HERE THERE IS A PAIN IN MY HEART ONLY FOR YOU!"

The people knew that when all other doors of the world were closed here was a door that was always open to them. That even if the whole world forsook them, here was someone they could call their own.
