New book, When I Saw Tirupati Balaji – Naham Kartha written by P V R K Prasad, a former Executive Officer of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), narrates the experiences he had while serving Lord Balaji at his abode in Tirupati Tirumala. The author strongly believes Naham Karta, Harih Karta – I am not the doer, Sri Hari is. He tries to find answer to some of the questions that arise in the mind of Venkateswara devotees and non-believers about Srihari or Tirupati Balaji. The book is published by Gyan Publishing House.

P V R K Prasad’s memoirs in a Telugu Weekly was highly appreciated by Telugu readers.

About the book from the words of the author.

Regardless of what I did in the interests of devotees or TTD, I believe that all my actions stemmed from my innate belief: ‘Naham Karta, Harih Karta’ (I am not the doer, Sri Hari is).

I merely recorded the events as they took place, with out imposing my views on readers.

My experiences – some wonderful, some strange and incredible – trigger conflicting emotion in atheists and theists.

I don’t know how my experiences impacted rationalists, who question, Is there God? If there is, how does He look? Have you seen Him?

Or the seekers of truth who ask, How much of faith one should repose in God to earn His Support for human endeavors?

This book, perhaps, has answers for such question. My own belief in ‘Naham Kartha , Harih Kartha’ has only grown stronger over the years.

The book is available online on several stores and also Gyan Books.
