From Corporate World to Cosmic Exploration
I know how depressing it feels to live without clarity and purpose. I understand the frustration of living without direction.
The constant hustle and bustle of the modern world left me feeling lost and disconnected.
I embarked on a journey during a much-needed sabbatical, venturing into the mountains with only a backpack and three books.
Little did I know that this journey would become my life’s calling.
Sabbatical Adventures
As I traversed through the serene landscapes, I sought refuge in various meditation camps. Each experience was a stepping stone, guiding me deeper into spiritual exploration.
Before I knew it, my temporary break had turned into a full-time pursuit of Synthesizing Ancient Wisdom and Modern Science.
But my journey didn’t stop there. Along the way, I attended writing, photography, and screenwriting workshops.
These diverse pursuits enriched my understanding of the human experience and fueled my passion for creative expression.
Sharing the Essence of Travel
In 2015, I had the honour of sharing my insights on travel and self-discovery in a TEDx talk titled “Why do we Travel,” organized by Hindu College in New Delhi.
It culminated my experiences and learnings, a testament to the transformative power of exploration and introspection.
Teaching Yoga Philosophy in Goa’s Rainforests
In 2014, I took a leap of faith and founded Smriti Yoga, a sanctuary nestled amidst the lush rainforests of Goa. It was more than just a yoga teacher training school; it was a haven for wisdom seekers.
My yoga journey began years earlier, with an introductory course from Sivananda Yoga in 2009. Eager to deepen my practice and share its transformative power with others, I pursued a Yoga Teacher’s Training Course in Ashtanga Vinyasa in Dharamsala in 2011, followed by an advanced YTTC in Goa in 2013.
At Smriti Yoga, I guided students from all walks of life through yoga, meditation, and mindfulness.
Navigating Change and Embracing New Beginnings
As the world grappled with the onset of the pandemic, Smriti Yoga faced unprecedented challenges. Forced to adapt to the changing landscape, I temporarily suspended operations and returned to my hometown. Little did I know that this pause would begin a new chapter in my journey.
Amidst the uncertainty of lockdowns and restrictions, I found solace in my writing. Drawing upon years of travel and introspection, I poured my heart and soul into converting my journals and memoirs into meaningful content.
But it wasn’t just writing that occupied my time during those months of introspection. With a newfound sense of purpose, I delved deeper into my research in astrology, a passion that had long intrigued me. I enrolled in Vedic Astrology and Vedic Numerology certification courses, formalizing my expertise in these ancient sciences.
Empowering Minds with Meditation Maverick
On the 1st of June 2023, I published Meditation Maverick, a book to demystify meditation and empower beginners to embark on their own mindfulness journey.
Infused with the wisdom gained from years of personal exploration, Meditation Maverick became an Amazon bestseller in its category.
Whether you’re a seasoned meditator or just beginning your journey, I invite you to grab a copy and join the Maverick movement.
In The News
I’m honoured to have been featured in a recent newspaper article by a respected doctor, where he explores the profound connection between mindfulness and sports, particularly running.
The article delves into the importance of recognizing the soul’s role in physical activities, emphasizing that true evolution in sports comes from nurturing both the body and the soul.
It’s a humbling experience to be part of such a meaningful discussion on holistic well-being.
