Lovebird Lingerie Emerges As The Fastest-Growing Premium Lingerie Brand In India

Lovebird Lingerie Emerges As The Most Premium Lingerie Brand In India

In today’s times, when people have so many options at their disposal, they want to be sure about the quality of the product they invest in. With the purchasing power of people in the country increasing rapidly, owning products that are high in quality is everybody’s topmost priority. Today, women are conscious of every single piece of clothing they buy. When they buy lingerie, they expect it to make them feel comfortable and confident.

Lovebird Lingerie, a company founded by Sandeep Gupta and Sanjeev Kumar Gupta, has emerged as the fastest-growing and most popular luxury lingerie brand in India. Though it is a relatively young brand, it has carved a niche for itself by offering a wide range of premium lingerie products across different designs and sizes.

Talking about the thought behind the brand, co-founder Sandeep Gupta says, “Our products, despite having a premium look and feel to them, are priced reasonably. We have strived to offer our consumers high-quality products while ensuring that they do not overpay for anything. Women of today are very particular about every clothing item they invest in. Before they buy any kind of lingerie, they ensure that it would complement their body well, make them feel comfortable and turn out to be durable. Through its high-quality products featuring world-class design, Lovebird Lingerie has managed to create a distinctive identity for itself in the intimate clothing category.”

The products offered by Lovebird Lingerie have been segregated into multiple categories based on style, design, body type, shape and purpose. Nightwear, beachwear, sports and shapewear are some of the many categories women get to choose from when they visit the Lovebird Lingerie online store. Apart from making premium lingerie accessible at affordable prices, Lovebird Lingerie has solved a major issue concerning this segment.

Elaborating on the same, co-founder Sanjeev Kumar Gupta says, “When somebody goes to the online store of a lingerie brand or browses through their products put up at a physical retail store, they realize that the brand does not cater to different body types. In today’s times, when there is so much discussion happening around body positivity, clothing brands need to make a conscious effort to reach out to everybody. When you visit our online store, you will see that we have lingerie for women of all age groups and body types. Because of this reason, we are on the verge becoming the market leaders in plus-size intimate wear.”

2024 Shincheonji’s Bible Seminars by Continent Asia I – Philippines

2024 Shincheonji’s Bible Seminars by Continent Asia I – Philippines

Chairman Lee Man-hee: ‘My mission is to testify to the events of Revelation as I have heard and seen them.’

Shincheonji Chairman Lee Man-hee delivers a powerful and confident lecture on Revelation in the Philippines ‘Testimony on fulfilled realities of Revelation’ explained logically and in order. Local attendees poured out applause, moved by the message.

“It is the mission of this person (Chairman Lee Man-hee) to convey what has been seen and heard from the events of Revelation chapters 1 to 22. What I have seen and heard, what I have touched and what exists in reality, is what I am here to share with you. Now is not the time to say anything and simply agree with ‘Amen’. You must understand the era of reality. It is the era when promises have been fulfilled.”

In an indoor lecture hall in the Philippines, applause filled the space, which seemed to seat thousands at first glance. The strong voice and confident lecture coming from a small stature,

Which seemed unlikely for someone well over ninety, made expressions so simple even a child could understand. In an instant, the atmosphere heated up intensely. The person who made this happen was none other than Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, Chairman Lee Man-hee.

  • Chairman Lee introduces himself first, like the prophets

On the 20th of April, Chairman Lee visited the Philippines. This was his twelfth visit since his first in 2013.

That day, Chairman Lee kicked off the ‘2024 Shincheonji’s Bible Seminars by Continent Asia (I)’ with a visit to the Philippine International Convention Center. The lecture series will continue throughout the year in Europe, Africa, America, Oceania, and conclude again in Asia (II). The Shincheonji Church of Jesus organized this Word Seminar due to explosive responses and earnest requests from numerous pastors and believers worldwide following the ‘Shincheonji Revelation Word Seminar’.

With a lecture hall that seats 4,000 packed with people, Chairman Lee took to the stage and first introduced himself and what led him to faith. It gave an impression similar to how biblical writers would introduce their lineage and era before the main content.

According to Chairman Lee’s introduction, he was born in 1931 in Cheongdo County, Gyeongsangbuk-do. Influenced by World War II, Korea fell under Japanese colonial rule, followed by the Korean War, where he experienced the tragedy of civil warfare as soldier on the front lines. Grateful for surviving in places where not a single blade of grass could live due to relentless gunfire from both allies and enemies, he prayed to the God of heaven every evening.

Later, guided by a star (a great light), he made a covenant with God through blood and entered the path of faith. Following the star’s guidance, he practiced faith at a church with seven messengers but returned home after witnessing corruption. He then participated in the Saemaul (New Village) Movement for seven years.

Afterward, he met a spiritual being from heaven and began his faith journey anew. Initially worshipping in the mountains, he eventually drew followers with the revelation he received, leading to what is now the Shincheonji Church of Jesus.

  • “Jesus Commands the Witness of Revelation to Testify”

Chairman Lee explained the direct reason why he came to testify about the words of Revelation. He stated, “The majority of the events from chapters 1 to 22 of Revelation were shown and given to one person by Jesus.” He continued, “This one person will speak of everything he has seen and heard up to chapter 22.” He emphasized again that it was “one person who saw everything from chapters 1 to 22 of Revelation,” explaining that when these prophecies are fulfilled, it is not Jesus who testifies, but Jesus commands the witness to testify to the churches, citing Revelation 22:16 and 8. Revelation 22:16 records that Jesus sends ‘my angel’ for the churches, and verse 8 refers to ‘I, John,’ indicating the one who has seen and heard the events of the entire book of Revelation.

Chairman Lee stated, “There is a time for prophecy and a time when it will be fulfilled,” and “when it is fulfilled, we are to see and believe, which is why it was prophesied in advance.”

Chairman Lee said, “With the thought ‘I must tell all these things to everyone, not just keep it to myself,’ I traveled around the world delivering the message,” and “I testified by going around 32 times just to convey what I had seen and heard.”

  • “To Enter Heaven, One Must Verify the Fulfilled Realities and Be “

Furthermore, Chairman Lee asserted that this era is ‘the time when Revelation is being fulfilled.’

Chairman Lee declared, “The world is in a deep sleep, not knowing whether the book of Revelation from God is being fulfilled or not,” and asserted, “More than half of Revelation has already been fulfilled.”

Chairman Lee stated forcefully, “Now is not the time to say anything and simply agree with ‘Amen,'” and “You must understand the era of reality. It is the era when promises have been fulfilled.” He stressed, “Revelation includes a beast with seven heads and ten horns, and also seven stars. It’s about understanding what these actual appearances represent,” and reiterated that “when God records such people’s emergence, it is so that today the fulfilment may be seen, heard, and believed.”

Referring to Revelation 22:18-19, Chairman Lee repeatedly emphasized that one cannot enter heaven if they add to or take away from the Book of Revelation. In doing so, he awakened a sense of urgency in faith by saying, “One must know everything without subtracting. It’s difficult enough to practice even when knowing everything; without knowledge, one would lose hope.”

Chairman Lee also said that if one desires heaven and eternal life, they must go to the ends of the earth if necessary to find out whether it is a reality fulfilled according to the Bible. Chairman Lee stressed, “Faith is not for making money,” and “It’s not the time to have faith with the old mentality. One must verify. After verifying, one must decide whether to believe or not.”

He also emphasized once again that one must fully grasp Revelation and be sealed as if being stamped with a seal. Chairman Lee asked, “Why do you think it is written in Revelation 22:18-19 that one will not enter the kingdom of heaven and will be cursed if they add or subtract from it?” He answered, “It is because these words are to be fulfilled as if stamped with a seal.”

Chairman Lee stressed the importance of engraving the words in one’s heart, becoming a ‘walking Bible’ and a ‘living word.’ He mentioned that those who do so become the sealed ones spoken of in Revelation 7, who are saved. Chairman Lee declared, “There is no mention of salvation except for the sealed 144,000 and the great multitude in white; anyone who is not sealed becomes like a clump of soil, having nothing to do with it. Only those who are sealed can enter the kingdom of heaven.” He also firmly stated, “Those who are sealed can live in heaven, have eternal life, and be part of God’s family, but those who are not have no relation to God.”

To the local people, Chairman Lee frequently conveyed greetings such as “I have a deep connection with the Philippines,” “The Philippines was the first place I came to testify after receiving the word,” and “I hold affection for the Philippines.”

In fact, the Philippines has maintained a relationship with Chairman Lee for over a decade. Apart from his religious activities, as the representative of the non-governmental international organization HWPL (Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light), he visited the Philippines and mediated the first civilian peace agreement in Mindanao, which had been in conflict for over 40 years. Following this, peace was established in the region, and this news received global attention.

Meanwhile, during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 when borders were closed, Shincheonji Church of Jesus held an online Word Seminar and shocked religious communities worldwide.

After receiving the words of Shincheonji, numerous denominations flooded requests for exchange, leading to MOUs for word exchange with 443 domestic churches and 9,462 churches in 77 countries overseas. After the exchange of words, 1,382 churches in 38 countries abroad changed their signs to Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony.

Shincheonji Church of Jesus announced, “Due to the explosive response and earnest requests from numerous pastors and believers worldwide, we will host the ‘2024 Continental Shincheonji

Word Seminar’ starting with Asia (I) on April 20th. The Word Seminars are scheduled to take place throughout the year in Europe, Africa, America, Oceania, and Asia (II). The seminars will be live streamed in multiple languages on YouTube for anyone around the world to watch.”

Jagadhri Embraces Spirituality: Grand Homage to Yog Yogeshwar Mahaprabhu Ramlal Ji Bhagwan

Jagadhri Embraces Spirituality: Grand Homage to Yog Yogeshwar Mahaprabhu Ramlal Ji Bhagwan

In the heart of Jagadhri, where the echoes of devotion intertwine with the essence of spirituality, a grand homage unfolded to honor the 136th celestial descent of Yogeshwar Mahaprabhu Ramlal Ji Bhagwan, the revered custodian of yoga’s essence. Amidst the vibrant hues of Ram Navami, a soul-stirring two-day affair beckoned seekers from afar, embracing them in the sanctum of Shri Yoga Abhyas Ashram nestled in the tranquil Shyam Sundar Puri colony.

The ancient teachings of Yoga have been passed down through the spiritual lineage of these four great avatars from the beginning: Yog Yogeshwar Mahaprabhu Ramlal Bhagwan (1888-1938), Yog Yogeshwar Mulkhraj Bhagvan (1938-1960), Yog Yogeshwar Devi Dayal Mahavdev (1951-1998), and Shri Yog Yogeswar Surendra Dev Mahadev (1997-2016).

Under the sage guidance of Swami Amit Dev Ji, scion of the lineage descending from Yog Yogeshwar Mahaprabhu Ramlal Bhagwan, the spiritual odyssey unfurled, weaving a tapestry of devotion and enlightenment. Swami Amit Dev Ji, custodian of the revered Shri Yog Abhyas Ashram Trust, orchestrated the symphony of spirituality with finesse, bearing aloft the torch of wisdom passed down through generations since the dawn of 1888.

As dawn broke on April 16th and 17th, 2024, a congregation of thousands thronged to partake in the sacred ritual, a pilgrimage of the soul led by luminaries and disciples alike. Among the thousands of devotees were Swami Ji’s younger brother Yogacharya Kartikay (Rohtak), Shri Mahesh Chand Goyal (Sonipat), Shri Santosh Kumar Ji (Hansi), Shri Manish Ji (Sonipat), Shri Arun Johar Ji (Panchkula), Mr. Harpreet Ji (Chandigarh), Ms. Pratibha Bedi (Patiala), Mr. Rajeev Jolly (Delhi), who truly embodied the spirit of the day. Also present were Jagadhri devotees and executive committee members Shri Rajendra Bajaj Ji, Shri Ram Swaroop Dua Ji, Shri Shambhu Dua Ji, Shri Rajiv Taneja Ji, Shri Ashok Garg Ji, Shri Neeraj Gulati Ji, Shri Gaurav Chhabra Ji, Shri Vipin Gambhir Ji, with special support from Mr. Kasturi Lal Vij Ji and Mr. Vishal Garg Ji. It was a perfect amalgamation of religious and spiritual Sangam through Pooja, archana, and yoga.

The labyrinthine program unfolded with each dawn, a melange of prayers, hymns, and introspection, nurturing the spirit and fortifying the soul. From the ethereal chants of Aarti to the sacred fires of Havan, every ritual bore witness to the timeless wisdom enshrined within the Ashram’s hallowed precincts.

The culmination of the reverential journey on the 17th saw the spirited Shobha Yatra, a procession of faith winding its way through the ancient alleys of Jagadhri. Amidst the celestial blessings bestowed upon the divine Shivling of Mahaprabhu Ji, the devotees found solace and abundance, their souls bathed in the golden glow of divinity.

The objective of this event was to promote the well-being of human society and the yogic way of living. On the first day, April 16th, the program started with Prayer, Aarti, Pooja, Guru Geeta, and meditation at 6:00 a.m., followed by havan at 9:00 a.m., akhand path at 10:00 a.m., then Bhandara at 7:00 p.m., and concluded with prayer, Aarti, Puja at 8:00 p.m., ending the day with chalisa and Bhajan satsang. On the second day, April 17th, the program began at 6:00 a.m. with prayer, Aarti, Pooja, Guru Geeta, and meditation. At 8:30 a.m., the Shobha Yatra commenced from Shyam Sundarpuri, Jagadhri, passing through Pataleshwar Mahadev temple and reaching the premises of the Ashram, where Tilak and worship were performed on the divine golden shivling of Mahaprabhu Ji. Following that, Mahaprabhu Ji’s inexhaustible treasure was distributed, enriching the devotees. This event was open to all those seeking balance in life, irrespective of class, creed, or religion, showing a keen interest in learning Yogic practices free of cost. Additionally, local government officials and leaders participated in the celebrations.

In essence, the spiritual confluence transcended the mundane, offering solace and sanctuary to all who sought harmony in the symphony of existence.

Seats going vacant in state Engg colleges in Gujarat

In February this year, the Gujarat government acknowledged a concerning trend of increasing vacancies in the state’s engineering colleges. This decline in admissions is attributed to a growing preference among students for institutes like IITs, NITs, and IIITs, as well as opportunities for higher studies abroad.

The government’s response to a question raised by senior Congress MLA Arjun Modhwadia revealed stark statistics: out of 71,629 available seats, only 30,000 were filled in 2022, and the numbers didn’t fare much better in 2023. Similarly, diploma engineering seats also experienced high vacancies. Despite a total of 1,40,852 degree and diploma engineering seats across the state, a significant portion remains unoccupied, posing challenges for the state’s educational landscape.

Similar trends have been observed in other state engineering colleges across the country.
