How Gurudev Found me

I was on the lookout for the Art of Living Basic course, as it was called then, in 2007, but I couldn’t find the center, which was just a kilometer away from me (😇). I had always been an agony aunt of sorts, way back in college, always there to help others with their troubles. But life took a turn in 2011, and I felt that my life was over. I even thought of committing suicide, with my child.

One evening in March 2011, a lady came asking for directions to a gentleman’s house for the Basic Course. He had missed his second Kriya that morning and could be called in for the program that evening. I didn’t know where the person lived, but I said I wanted to do it. I enrolled for the program that same week, along with my parents.

Since then, life’s hues have been different to this present day. Much gratitude, Gurudev. There are no words worthy enough to express my gratitude.
