In engineering college, I used to avoid interactions with teaching staff and other students except a chosen few in order to hide my ailment. In verbal exams also I could not fare well because of anxiety and nervousness in spite of knowing the matter. Though I desired to do post graduation and appear in U.P.S.C. exams, I knew that I would not be able to because of this serious shortcoming. I had to therefore settle down with a government job which I was able to secure. And I am grateful to God for that. In my job also I used to avoid meeting top bosses. Many a times I would think why is this happening with me and get frustrated. Sometimes I used to think of committing suicide. These shortcomings were a great impediment to my growth in life and also seriously affected my day to day working.
I have started looking for allopathic treatment since 1982 with the help of my sister, who was studying medicine at that time. The head of department, Neurology, Medical College, Indore, at that time opined that he can hardly do anything. In Mumbai, I first consulted one neurologist in 1989 and further went on consultation and treatments with doctors from Nanavati Hospital and Bombay Hospital till 1999. The treatments offered me some relief to the extent that it reduced tremors little bit till I continued with the medicines.
After some duration with treatment, i.e. for nearly 3 years, the doctor told me that I have to consume the medicines for entire life and for avoiding anxiety during stress causing situations, he advised me to have small doses of Red Wine. During my allopathic treatment, I did some personality development courses including meditation courses. I had virtually gone for spiritual shopping.
One of my friends suggested doing Art of Living course. Finally I landed up in Basic/Part 1 Course in 1999. However I have not followed up thereafter. Also,I did not know the venue for follow up. One day volunteers named Raju, Minu and others came in our building and gave an intro talk and told me to come for follow up. I wanted to avoid consuming Red Wine and hence this time I took it up seriously and started doing Kriya regularly. I also started attending long kriya once a week. The benefits of Sudarshan Kriya started showing results and after 3 months, I completely stopped medicines which I was consuming since 1989. I meanwhile did Divya Samaj Nirman course and started doing Param Padma Sadhana regularly. DSN broadened my comfort zone. I also did Sahaj which is making me natural day by day. Every day I could feel myself lighter and lighter and I could see the difference in myself on a day to day basis. Further, Guruji’s knowledge tapes such as Ashtavakra Gita, Narad Bhakti stotra, Shiva Bhakti stotra benefited me a lot. Sudarshan kriya has cured my ailment completely but I think healing is only a by product of larger gain which I got namely peace of mind, unshakable faith, positive attitude towards life, increased awareness, focus towards life, increased confidence, better efficiency in work, better interpersonal relationship and above all it has brought my smile back. This is a rebirth to me and I am looking forward to every new day with lot of enthusiasm and energy.
From my experience, I am of the firm opinion that Sudarshan kriya can cure any ailment be it developed in this life span or hereditary ailments, as was in my case, because the recovery affected is in the most natural way, cleansing each and every cell. But the journey towards the recovery was not a cat walk. I have not missed my kriya for a single day since last 2 years and Param Padmasadhana since last April (i.e. when I did the DSN). But that is a very small contribution from my side in comparison to treating a lifelong hereditary ailment for which I could not find any cure from any quarter during so many years. From my experience I can say that if you do Sudarshan kriya daily including long kriya preferably once in a week and continue doing that, you get benefits which you have never thought of. With tears in my eyes, I am deeply indebted the Art of Living Foundation. Our beloved Guruji Sri Sri Ravishankar is transforming lives of millions, my life is also transformed and I will see that my remaining life is put in use for some good cause.
