Pune: Carrying forward the legacy of connecting hearts through words and creativity, author and artist Vidisha Goenka Bajoria unveiled her book “Unwoven Strings of Life” alongside her solo art exhibition “Strings of Life” at the Raja Ravi Varma Art Gallery in Pune on Wednesday.
The event was graced by distinguished guests, including world-renowned watercolour artist Milind Mulick, award-winning journalist Vinita Deshmukh, celebrated wildlife artist Sushma Jain, and Rajyogini Nalini Didi and Shraddha Didi of the Brahma Kumaris.
Vidisha Goenka Bajoria descends from a lineage steeped in service and spirituality. She is the great granddaughter of Shri Jaydayalji Goenka, revered saint and founder of Gita Press, Gorakhpur, and daughter of Shri Madhav Prasadji Goenka, a distinguished poet, scholar, and philanthropist. Through her art and writing, she carries forward this heritage by blending devotion with creativity, and reflection with action.
As a painter, healer, and storyteller, Vidisha’s work is guided by a singular purpose: to bring light where there is pain, hope where there is despair, and meaning where there is silence.
Speaking about her book, “Strings Of Life” Vidisha said, “In the pursuit of a meaningful life, there are two simple yet profound mantras that echo through the ages. The first is ‘Do your best and leave the rest’, and the second is ‘Moments lived belong to us, tomorrow is just a dream’. My book unfolds these timeless words through personal narratives and universal truths, guiding readers to embrace life with joy and resilience amidst uncertainty.”
Each chapter of the book unfolds as a lesson in doing one’s best, whether in the face of challenges, triumphs, or the ordinary moments that shape our days. At the same time, it inspires readers to cherish every moment and acknowledge the unpredictable nature of tomorrow’s dreams, guiding them to put in their best efforts with echoes of the present moment.
Vidisha’s “Strings of Life” exhibition showcases over 70 evocative paintings that capture the living ghats, festivities, devotion, mystics, nature, wildlife, skies, and the beauty of human emotions. Her art mirrors her deep spirituality, as each canvas explores inner and outer worlds, inviting viewers to reconnect with themselves and the beauty of existence.
Whether through a canvas, a conversation, a cause, or a quiet moment of prayer, her mission is to help others reconnect with themselves, with the divine, and with the beautiful journey of life.
The exhibition will continue at Raja Ravi Varma Art gallery until October 12 from 11 am to 6 pm .
