'We are in time after ages, and the age of the ages is beginning to get a control, which is recommended and practiced all over, so the effect of that early bird shall be exercised and the results reverted upon,' he wrote, sharing the picture.

Trying to translate the verse in English, Amitabh Bachchan wrote, 'Without knowing divinity, there is no belief. Without belief, there is no love, and without love, how can there be devotion? Just like the reflected smoothness of water, it is never still or stagnant. Without a guru, there can be no learning without reclusion and quietude, there can be learning. The Veda and the Puraan say that without the prayer of devotion to Hari, there can be peace and calm.'

'Can a boat ever move without being in water? Without the earth, can there be trees that grow?" and many more such examples to exemplify the presence and the prayers to the Almighty, in the absence of which a lot is not possible,' the translation concluded.

Ending the blog on a positive note, the megastar wrote, 'I pray for eternal peace and calm.". Whoever listens to it, may there be fructification.'
