Q1: Can you provide a brief introduction about yourself and your background, including your current profession or field of expertise?
Sushri Vishwavaibhavi Videh: I am born into a family deeply rooted in culture and spirituality, with a legacy of business spanning three generations, over 80 years. My early connection with spirituality was quite remarkable. As an infant, while crossing a temple with my father, I insisted on stopping the car, asking him to remove his shoes, and take me inside to worship. At the tender age of 3, I began reciting parts of the Shiv Tandav by myself, having heard it on YouTube. My ability to memorize mantras also surfaced at a very young age, indicating a profound spiritual inclination that transcends my generation.
Q2: What are some of your notable achievements or contributions that you would like to highlight in this biography?
Sushri Vishwavaibhavi Videh: While I am still very young to write a full-fledged biography, I have been fortunate to receive acknowledgments from various spiritual institutions for my remarkable ability to chant mantras. Respected figures in the Arya Samaj have commended my recitation of celebrated scripts from the Vedas. One notable moment was when Acharya Devvratji Ji, the present Governor of Gujarat, commented that he sees shades of my great-grandfather in me when I speak with such clarity and conviction.
I come from a lineage that includes my illustrious great-grandfather, Swami Vidhyanand Ji Videh, who served as a Superintendent of Police during the British colonial era. He was a renowned preacher of the Vedas and Shashtras. In the 1920s, he traveled extensively to the United Kingdom, Mauritius, and Africa to propagate Vedic teachings. Notably, he was the only preacher in the British era permitted to engage in religious teachings. His influence continues to inspire many.
Q3: Could you share some insights into your early life, including your upbringing, family background, and any influential experiences or events that shaped your journey?
Sushri Vishwavaibhavi Videh: My upbringing has been deeply entrenched in a family culture that values spirituality and business acumen. I come from a lineage where business has been a way of life for three generations, spanning over 80 years. This environment provided me with a strong foundation of discipline, dedication, and hard work.
From a very young age, my family recognized my profound connection with spirituality. My first encounter with spirituality was when, as an infant, I insisted on entering a temple during a car ride with my father. I was barely able to speak, yet I knew the importance of worship.
At the age of 3, I began reciting parts of the Shiv Tandav after hearing it on YouTube. My family was astonished by my ability to memorize mantras and my deep spiritual inclination. This early connection with the divine has continued to shape my journey.
Additionally, I am currently in grade 3, pursuing my education through an international board. Alongside my regular studies, I have also delved into the rich language of Sanskrit, further deepening my connection to our spiritual heritage.
Despite my young age, I am on a path to harness and share the spiritual wisdom that has been passed down through my family for generations. My journey, though in its infancy, is marked by a profound sense of purpose and devotion to spirituality.
