I was plugged into this world 36 years back, for a purpose, which I am still searching for. It took me 24 years to find out that life is a journey in search of myself, and that I didn’t start with my birth and this was just another leg of my journey. When I know that being here was not my choice, I realize that being chosen to be here now is a blessing!

The world around me was ferociously imposing all its elements on me and I was being swept away by the waves of ignorance. When I was a child, the education made me think that my life is decided by the numbers I saw in my report cards. The choice given to me was either to be just another person, one among the millions, or to make myself prominent than others by means of those numbers. I always felt that it was unfair to judge me with those numbers, I had more in me than what those numbers suggested. I struggled a lot, admitting failures without being able to convince myself that I am just one among the millions who just exist insignificantly.

When I grew up, the numbers haunted me again, this time in the form of currency notes. The world tried to teach me that the purpose of my life was to accumulate more and more wealth. It was a struggle again, I was trained to do ‘better’ than others, I found me losing my own identity in the process. Being good to fellow human beings was not a thing mentioned to me anywhere in the corporate world, though something inside me prompted me to do that again and again. But then, I was being corrected again and again by the world around. I found that life is a never ending race for accumulating wealth, where in, however fast you run, you only see people who are ahead of you. Loving, or being loved were not supposed to be important things in life, whereas indulging in the vices were treated as ‘part’ of the modern living.

Then, without me searching for anything, and without any warning, a light came into my life, my Guru. The first meeting gave me a glimpse of what an experience of love could be like. I longed for it again; it came to me in plenty. Suddenly I realized that it was coming to me from all directions, I started smiling from my heart….. I got to know that life is not all about numbers and races! The journey began there…..

….And here I am, sharing all those moments of wisdom, love and fun with those people who dare to explore into life’s possibilities. I am here because of my Guru’s unconditional love.

The world around me had convinced me that I am just an ‘ordinary’ person; He made me feel special.

The world taught me that I had to please God to get things done (I had no idea where God existed!). He made me experience that divinity dwells within me too.

The world taught me that I had to accumulate things and wealth to be happy; He made me experience the joy of giving and sharing.

For the world, I just existed; my Guru gave me a life, I started living………!!
