The Impressive TimesPatna: A Chitragupta Puja ceremony was organised with religious fervour and enthusiasm at RS Colony, Ashok Nagar, Road No. 1, in Kankarbagh, Patna, on Sunday. A statue of Lord Shri Chitragupta Maharaj was installed and worshipped according to traditional rituals. People associated with social, religious and cultural activities participated in the ceremony.
On the occasion, Deepak Kumar Abhishek, Editor of Ghatnachakra Times, senior advocate, Global Vice-President of the Global Kayastha Conference (GKC) and President of GKC Bihar Pradesh, was felicitated with an angavastram. The organisers appreciated his contributions to social and organisational activities.
Speaking after the felicitation, Deepak Kumar Abhishek highlighted the religious and spiritual significance of Lord Chitragupta. According to religious beliefs, Lord Chitragupta emerged from the complete being of Lord Brahma and was entrusted with maintaining records of the deeds of all living beings.
He said Lord Chitragupta works alongside Yama, keeping an account of the good and bad deeds of every individual. This belief inspires people to follow the path of truth, justice, honesty and righteous conduct.
He added that Chitragupta Puja is not merely a religious ritual but also an occasion for introspection and evaluation of one’s actions. The worship reminds people that good deeds and contributions to society are more important than position, prestige or wealth.
Emphasising the universal message of Lord Chitragupta, Deepak Kumar Abhishek said his teachings were not limited to any particular community. The values of knowledge, wisdom, writing, justice and accountability are relevant to everyone and can contribute to building a better society.
Those present at the ceremony included Ajay Srivastava and Sushil Srivastava. Expressing his views, Ajay Srivastava said Lord Chitragupta maintains the records of the deeds of people belonging to all castes and religions, and his responsibilities are not restricted to any one community. Therefore, people from all sections of society should worship and seek inspiration from him.
He further said that the worship of Lord Chitragupta strengthens social harmony, ethical values, mutual respect and the spirit of good deeds. Understanding his teachings from a broader social perspective can help promote unity and brotherhood beyond caste-based differences.
The ceremony at RS Colony conveyed a message of religious devotion as well as social unity. The installation of Lord Chitragupta’s idol, traditional prayers and felicitation of social personalities were among the highlights of the event.
The organisers and participants emphasised the need to follow the ideals of truth, justice, righteousness and mutual cooperation in everyday life. The central message of the celebration was that an individual’s true identity is defined by their deeds, and good actions remain the most valuable asset of human life.
