Dr Poonam Bali, Yoga and Wellness Teacher
Bliss Health Care, New Delhi
I have had the good fortune of a rare friendship with Dr J. Patnaaik. Whether I meet him or not for days and months but the fragrance of a real friend that he is, has been evident every morning in the form of an encouraging, enlightening message in my phone. Despite his busy schedules he would remain connected, be it a call, a shared meal, a helping hand in the hour of need or a good word of advice required as per the place and time.
His simplicity, humbleness, transparency, almost childlike smile and innocence have always touched my heart and brought a sense of comfort in a world, filled with people always on an agenda or under garb otherwise. He comes along as a genuinely caring person about his family and friends alike. I have been a witness to his philanthropic work along with his family which is commendable and proof of them being true devotees of the divine in form of service to poor and needy. This being one of the reasons behind his phenomenal growth and success as a literary individual in service of humanity.
When you give, the divine showers on you his immense blessings. That is explained through life of Dr Patnaaik. May God bless him with a long healthy life. I convey my wishes for success in all his endeavors in service of humanity be it field of culture, literature, spirituality or growth and development of this blessed nation.
Jai Bharat Maa
