Baia…56 years of Choviar pechkhan

Posted by Nimit June 30th, 2007

While talking to Bai yesterday, I found out she has taken pechkhan of evening choviar each day for the past 56 years (with only one break in the middle while she visited USA in the 70’s).

Wow!!

    Nimit, I used to say baia is doing choviar every day as far as my memory can go. It would be nice to list different “tap” she did in her life time (versitap, updhan tap, pagpadi, pousad and so on…………..) May be description of all those tap can be a religious class for us and may be we can start training ourself little by little.
    thank you for sharing this.

    Lot of determination and faith can do this, even good focus also. Sometime thinking for too many things…. gets hard to do even one. Good post and good thought nim, with awareness, open mind and positive attitude there are always so many good things to find.

    I was a young boy when she started Chouvihar and Varsitap. Many years of disciplined life. We all need to learn from her determination.

    Bai anke mathe vandan.
