We Reconnected
with Our Core Beliefs.


"My wife and I do similar work," explains Dr. Jagdish Ragade of Portland, Oregon, USA. "My specialty is Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychiatry while Namrata is an advisor and consultant to other doctors. Basically, our jobs are to find solutions and help others do the same."

"A year ago, when we found Hinduism Today, immediately our lives were enhanced. At work, I find myself banking more confidently on the inner--in ways I would hardly have dared do previously. I can go for solutions on a bigger scale. And it generally works out."

"Hinduism Today helped us to reconnect with our core beliefs," Namrata adds. "Once your understanding and faith deepen, you can really help others. People around you begin to understand and have faith, too. This has proved true in our work and at home also, where the inspiration of one becomes that of the others. Our daughters Anusha, 9, and Shreya, 6, appreciate our new shrine room as much as we do. 'It feels so good in there,' they say. I am amazed at how much they understand. We have become enthusiastic vegetarians and, once a month, all four of us go out into the street with our pots and pans and feed the homeless people."


“And, as inspired people
  tend to inspire others,
  the effect should be a wonder to behold.


Jagdish and Namrata have donated generously to the Hinduism Today Production Fund, which is a part of Hindu Heritage Endowment. "'We like to think that our gifts will help the magazine to continue providing those liberating perspectives that are inspiring us and our children," Jagdish explains. "We imagine a future where Hinduism Today is financially strong and able to share Hinduism's spritual treasures with a great many people. And, as inspired people tend to inspire others, the effect should be a wonder to behold. We consider contributing to the magazine's future a most worthy cause."

If you share the Ragade's vision and their enthusiasm for spirituality, please consider donating to the Hinduism Today Production Fund.
