I always felt my creativity was mine. There was a sense of ownership. A feeling that – “this belongs to me”. A thought that “I am creating this”. It brought so much specialness. It added to my self-worth and value. But things have been different since my so-called skills have joined forces with the Divine.ContinueContinue reading “Let your skills connect you to the Divine”

When the ego wants to be a guru
One of the things that has been unraveled to me sometimes slowly and sometimes like a band-aid being ripped apart, is the ego’s desire to be a teacher or like mine to be a spiritual guru. Ha ha ha. Its a funny one. We all want to be acknowledged for our intelligence. And the momentContinueContinue reading “When the ego wants to be a guru”
What is prayer?
As I was planning and discussing my next program on ‘Redefining Prayer’ with my 16 year old, he asked me to define prayer for him. It made me pause. I realised how difficult it is to say what prayer means. Two years ago, I had wanted to write a book on prayer traditions from aroundContinueContinue reading “What is prayer?”
The reason to heal.
There is a reason we need healing. This reason is deeply personal to each of us. Some want it for the body. Some want it for the mind. But, everyone wants to feel whole.

In my mind, there seems to be a belief that I have had a physically demanding and tiring time the past week. And that thought, of course, is experienced as real by theContinueContinue reading “When and why does healing work?”
Upasani Baba Maharaj of Sakori
On a trip to Shirdi, this week I was guided to visit the ashram of Upasani Baba Maharaj at Sakori. A disciple of Sai Baba, Upasani Maharaj was an enlightened master! His ashram is less than 10 kilometres from Shirdi and is still a pristine hidden space, in the village of Sakori. The peace inContinueContinue reading “Upasani Baba Maharaj of Sakori”
Who is a teacher?
The world defines a teacher based on the education system. A teacher is thus a person who instructs, informs and guides students based on a certain curriculum. Even in a spiritual context, this definition seems to be the norm. Most spiritual students believe in this and continue to chain themselves and their teachers to thatContinueContinue reading “Who is a teacher?”
❤️ I am only here to be truly helpful❤️
From the past few years the role of a seeker has been the predominant identity I wear in front of the world. Does this mean I am an enlightened one? Far from it! People usually get on the path when they battle some inner demon or physical challenge. Anxiety has been my bane – IContinueContinue reading “❤️ I am only here to be truly helpful❤️”
