DIDI
ANITAJI HIRANI,

Jai
Swaminarayan!

First
of all, I take this opportunity to congratulate you for coming out as a Pracharika
of Hindu Sevika Samiti in the Vishwa Vibhaag.

A
person of your caliber, who is a disciple of great sons & daughters of
BHARAT like P.P. Dr. Hedgewar ji & P. P. Guruji, Van. Laxmibai Kelkar to
name a few. A person whose role model is a great son of Bharat, Swami
Vivekananda ji. You have set the goals, you have raised the bars, and you have
to get set to reach for excellence.

I
am very confident that you shall be successful in whatever you do because of
the tremendous faith & confidence that you posses. I personally remember
one such inspiring incidence. It was during a prize distribution ceremony held in
your school, Ngara girls High School, while you were a form 3 student. That
year, the overall Academic Prize winner for a form 4 student went to Meena
Mavji Vaghjiani. You congratulated her and said “Meena! Next year this prize is
definitely going to Anita Keshra Patel. And I mean it!” And guess what? You
actually proved it. You not only got the trophy of the best academic student
but also topped the school in the KCSE exam. I was touched by the confidence
that you had then.

That
same moment, I decided to inspire you & your confidence fully. For this, I
always joined you in all your activities e.g. your table tennis matches,
cycling practices and expeditions to Ngong Hills, Mt. Longonot and Mt. Kenya. Your
confidence in yourself, gave you the strength to travel alone, this made my
confidence in you grow day by day. I always saw that your graph of confidence did
not deteriorate at all. It always moved up.

Initially,
when you two sisters, (Reshma & yourself), went as assessors for President
Award Scheme’s expeditions, and that too with 10 boys, I didn’t like the idea
but when you completed them successfully, I found it was ok, as I did not want
to discourage your faith & confidence. I always noticed that your fighting spirits
increasing day by day.

Now
that you are coming out as a Pracharika in Vishwa Vibhaag, your
responsibilities will increases in large numbers. Now, you shall no longer be
my daughter only, you shall be a beti / bhagini for so many Karyakartas /
Swayamsevaks / Sevikas all over the world. You will have to prove your appointment
as a Pracharika to all of them. You shall be answerable to the Sangh Pariwar
all over the world. Your failures and faults shall be questioned, so you will
have to be very careful, responsible, obedient and faithful. From today
onwards, you will have to eat less, sleep less and read more.

Fortunately,
we have many inspirational writers in our Sangh Pariwar. You will happen to
come in contact with them in person. You will have to grab all the
opportunities coming your way.

In
Sangh, our relations goes as far as Kitchen and its always a delight for the
elders to see their beti working in the kitchen. You will have to be a hard
working person. You will have to be very fearless person. You will have to be
very brave girl.

You
need not have to worry as so many Karyakartas all over are ready to help you
when necessary. You know Sangh work is Ishwariya Karya. Feel that you are great
& you will become great. Always believe that you are bound to do great
things. Always think that you are Atma; deathless & free, pure by nature.
You can’t commit any sins. Have faith in yourself, this faith will make you a
man even God. So always have faith in yourself & in you. Always think
positive.

Also
remember, be the small of the smallest Swayamsevak, Karyakarta or Adhikari. Never
have any ego! Do not let Ego conquer you & your mission.

Since
the decision of being a Pracharika is your own and not as a result of outside
pressure, we as your parents welcome your decision. Your timely decision to
give Sangh 2 years for Sangh work is welcomed as we celebrate Swami
Vivekanandji’s 150th Birth centenary. You can rest be assured for
any assistance, whatsoever kind, shall always available to you by my family
& all members of Sangh.

I
would like to express my gratitude to all the Karyakartas in Kenya and in Pune,
who have helped to shape you.

As
we are proud of you right now, make sure you learn maximum & use these 2
years so competently & inspire younger Swayamsevaks or Sevikas and make us more
proud. Always make the motto of your life as a Pracharika as “Give
more and receive less.”

May
God bless you!

Your
father
