Spiritual guru Jaya Kishori recently responded to all the buzz about carrying a custom Dior bag costing above ₹ 2 lakh. Preacher Jaya Kishori, 29 years old, was spotted at an airport carrying a customized Dior “Book Tote”, triggering a potential viral discussion among supporters and critics questioning her choice.
Responding, Ms. Kishori said, “I am a normal girl; I live in a normal house with my family. I encourage young people to work hard, earn, and provide a good life for themselves and their families, fulfilling their dreams.” She said that though her Dior “Book Tote,” is quite valuable and custom-made, it’s crafted without leather.
However, her followers challenged the seeming inconsistency between spiritual teachings on detachment and holding material wealth, as a luxury item.
