Neerja Malik Speaks at All Ladies League, Meet and Greet Session

ALL...

8th June, 2019...

ALL LADIES LEAGUE... 

MEET AND GREET SESSION...

ALL Tamil Nadu and Puducherry Chapter for Social Initiatives...

My dearest friend, Sakina Ansari, guided us and we prayed, hand in hand, for peace and rain, actually visualizing Chennai being drenched in a wonderful downpour...

And then I shared my feelings on peace and how I had taught my twins, as soon as they could speak, to chant the prayers of the Hindu, Muslim, Sikh and Christian faiths and then communicate with God about anything that was in their hearts and on their minds...

I truly believe that we humans are  "Citizens of the World", first and foremost, before being anything else and look forward, eagerly, to the day when we can all be linked together in love, peace and joy...

God is Great... 

Global Reach of Neerja Malik's Blog - It's a Small World, After All...

It gives me immense pleasure and happiness that with the Grace of God I have gained so many friends all over the world...

I'm deeply touched and overwhelmed by the global audience that my blog has and hope that some day, ripple after ripple, we are all linked together in love, peace and joy...

Do keep reading and sharing my posts with your friends, wherever they may be...

God is Great...

Actress Rekha Pens her Thoughts about 'I Inspire' Book by Neerja Malik

My dearest family and friends...

I would love to share with you the wonderful words that Rekha, one of the finest actresses of Indian Cinema and well known for her versatility, wrote to me after reading my book  'I Inspire'  before it was launched in Chennai in October of 2015...

This is what she felt when she read it, penned in her very own words, which touched me oh so deeply..

Thank you, my dearest Rekha, for these heart warming words...

Love, prayers and blessings always, for the wonderful and lovely person you are...

God is Great...

Actor Rekha with Neerja Malik

Let us FACE Cancer, Not FIGHT It

My beloved family and friends...
I have always called myself a conqueror...
Not a fighter, nor a warrior, nor a survivor...
And there is a story behind this...
Way back in 1998, when I was first diagnosed with cancer, on Friday the 13th February, I went to my father and told him :
"Papa, I'm going to fight cancer."
My father, Cdr. Benoy Bhushan, was a highly respected officer from the Indian Navy of the Indian Armed Forces...
He was awarded with a Mention in Despatches in the 1971 war...
He turned to me and he said :
"Beta, why are you using the word  "Fight" ?
"Fight" is a negative word...
Why don't you use the word  "Face" instead ?
"Hum hon ge kamyaab !"
"We shall overcome !"
Since that day, his words have resonated with me completely and have been deeply imprinted on my psyche...
I have narrated this to thousands of my patients and his words have moved and given courage to many...
If you hear anyone say  "Face cancer, don't Fight it"  you know where these words have originated from...
Keep rocking, my beloved friends...
Love, prayers and blessings always...
God is Great....

Neerja Malik Sows the Seeds of Humanity beyond the Realms of Religion

Translation of Neerja Speaking in Tamil:

Neerja Malik speaks about her experience of counselling a muslim lady with cancer who was awaiting surgery in hospital. The hands of the woman were trembling like those of a trapped bird and she was extremely nervous and scared. Neerja held the hands of the woman and slowly started chanting, "La ilaha illallah muhammadur rasulullah," for 10 minutes. The hands of the womam stopped trembling and she had a calm and serene smile on her face. She opened her eyes and looked at Neerja and exclaimed, "You are a muslim." Neerja said, "Yes." She looks beyond religion. It doesn't matter to her whether she is being called a Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Jew, or Parsi. She believes that first and foremost she is a human being. 

Neerja feels that she is connected to everyone in the world. So even if someone in New Zealand, Srilanka, or America suffers, her heart bleeds for all of them. She feels that we are all connected to God. Neerja feels that we need to love one another and look beyond complexions such as black, white, wheatish, or yellow. As long as you have a heart and soul, and we are human beings, we all belong to the same family.
