Jai Gurudev.
Below is an incident which changed the direction of my life and showed me the right way.
I dragged myself through my SSC (10th standard exams), just dreaming of getting into the best possible college in Mumbai. My dream surely came true when I took Science in R. D. National College & W. A. Science College in Bandra. However things didn’t quite work out well with the studies part and I dropped out of FYJC (11th standard) due to my disinterest in Sciences. I was dejected thinking that perhaps now I wouldn’t be able to get into a good college as I had just dropped out of 11th grade FYJC . I did my FYJC in commerce as I changed field, in a not so palatable college. Then my life took a sharp turn when I did Yes Course in 2005. And just after doing my YES (Youth Empowerment Skills Workshop) course in 10 days I got blessed to do a YES II Course in Bangalore Ashram.

Before coming to ashram, I had applied for admissions in SYJC (12th standard) in MCC Commerce College in Mulund. To my surprise they accepted me in SYJC and it was just his grace that where people don’t get admissions even scoring 80% marks, I got in with 56 %. The icing on top was that on 1st day of college I made a huge group, and more miracles were graced at me when I found that few of my friends in that group had already done YES course although I got to know about this a little late next year. I now wonder that if I had continued with Sciences, I might have been in a completely different place now.
I would have never enjoyed a typical and adventurous commerce student’s life. I would have never got into HDFC Bank where I am having a good time both working and enjoying.
Master’s plan is always better than a disciple’s plan. Big mind always knows what is best for the small mind.

Love
