Part 2 – Beginning of A New Life & Spiritual Living

I am not a certified astrologer or spiritual coach for any kind of coaching or consultation. I did not have the option of joining a yoga-meditation program or to learn any astrology course. I started to learn, follow, and practice spiritual living to recover after the major accidents of life. I have learnt yoga-meditation process with only breathing, coz when my spiritual living practices started – I was bed-ridden and did not know if I will ever walk straight or live a self-sustainable & normal life. When I suffered from psychosis disease then I was given medical prescriptions to avoid fits or other mental health issues and they were supposed to be continued for entire life if I had not chosen spiritual living. 

I went for my first pilgrimage to Kamakhya Shakti Peetha in Assam in Jan 2017. I went to many other pilgrimages and spiritual places for next 3-4years. I learnt to live freely with energy of nature with different people & places; and experience life from a completely different perspective. I wanted to connect with reality of life without being in my own comfort zone, I started eating very local street food, travelling & meeting with local people and families of different places, I slept on streets, near temples, in fields and in jungles, walked for miles, trekked mountains, enjoyed many new experiences of meeting new people, visiting new places and learnt a lot through the spiritual energy of different places. At some point I could understand clearly why and how problems were created in my life and because of lack spiritual awareness I could not do anything about it. 

∙ With the rise in stress, mental health issues and lifestyle disorders, the future of human development lies in achieving oneness of mind and body. Spirituality unites everything. Spiritual living is not only healthy living in terms of healthy food and nutrition but also mental and emotional well-being. It helps in professional and personal growth so that successful achievements give happiness along with inner peace and content. 

∙ I have learnt the necessary spiritual living practices that can help people to resolve the physical & psychological problems in their lives and to improve their overall living conditions. It has transformed my life by maintaining proper balance of body, mind and emotions using the knowledge and spiritual practices of astrology, yoga & mediation. It is a continuous spiritual journey of learning and living experience as long as we live. 

∙ When I came out of jail, I decided to leave home for some time to plan future actions in my life. I went to different places to perform spiritual yoga-mediation practices until May- Jun 2019. It was during this time-period that I came to know about Sadhguru and Dhayanalinga. I could relate with the words-teachings and some of the life experiences of Sadhguru. I have learnt a lot from him and he is guiding humanity with spiritual living practices. 

∙ There are many spiritual leaders in present times but there is no competition or comparison in spiritual ways of life. All the spiritual leaders are important in different aspects of spiritual & social life. They have contributed to the society, humanity beyond the barriers of region or religion. It is important to understand that Spirituality is contemporary. The sages & rishis of ancient Bharat lived & worked as per the life & living environment in olden days. The Kings & their families lived wealthy life & there were common people also who were poor as per the standards of living & status of those times. 

∙ The Spiritual people of ancient times like the Yogi-Rishis always helped the people in general without any selective interests & benefits. They had great knowledge and wisdom because they devoted time-energy in study & research. They used this knowledge to help people, society, and the nation but it was all done sincerely & honestly. It is known devotion to Karma & Dharma. The spiritual people were great scholars & scientists but they lived a humble life and did not care about their own survival needs and basic comforts of life, but it was balanced with the support of people-society.

Spiritual Coaching & Consultation Services​

I do not consider myself good enough that I can teach anything to anyone because I am a spiritual seeker and learning about Spiritual & Life sciences but I believe and follow the concept of – 

Learning by Sharing Life Experiences. 

We all are inter-connected & inter-dependent on each other as a society and when people have spiritual awareness then they understand it and so they help & support each other. In present times everything is a financial transaction, in general, the interests & benefits are higher priority than the service to humanity, without necessary spiritual awareness & devotion. People have confused intelligence with spiritual awareness, and any kind of favour comes with the demand for returns. In present times since there is less scope for study-research on Spiritual & life sciences so there is very low understanding-awareness of these subjects for example Astrology, Yoga-meditation have become just another business-activity. 

Next, it was the time to take act, and based on my understanding, I knew that there is a possibility of going to a foreign land by the beginning of the year 2020, as per the upcoming time-period, with the Saturn transit in Capricorn zodiac sign. So, I decided to work on it, and the divine science of astrology became the guiding principle of my life. 

Astrology is not meant for prediction because nobody knows the future. I do not know my own future or the prediction of things that will happen next moment. It is a spiritual knowledge which is useful to understand the possibilities of life and the time-period. The planetary time-period of astrology is like seasons and we must know about it to prepare and protect ourselves for example it is better to prepare for food before winters or protection before rain or thunderstorms. 

I came back to the parents-house in Goa. I decided to learn from the past, accept my mistakes and ignorance. Based on my understanding of astrology I knew that from the beginning of the year 2020 after Saturn transit in Capricorn I will get an opportunity to make positive changes in my life and there is a possibility of going to a foreign land by the beginning of the year 2020. I had lost everything after the accident in May 2015, I was bankrupt, I had no job and no chance of getting any job, and now I had become officially a criminal convicted in a criminal offence- but there was possibility to make conscious choices that will change my life in the future. 

So, I applied for a new passport, also, I decided to find some kind of new job, looking for an opportunity in Spiritual Coaching & Consultation – Astrology, Yoga-Mediation. I got a job at a beach resort where I could offer spiritual services to the guests & employees. 

Now, I am working at Planet Hollywood Beach Resort, Goa as an in-house astrologer since Oct 2018. I offer Spiritual Coaching & Consultation services. I make sincere and honest efforts to listen and understand other people. I listen to people without any judgements or making opinions about them. I share my ideas & experiences with other people to help them resolve the problems in their lives; to learn, follow & practice spiritual living or simply give it as suggestions. I pray for the support & blessings of Mother Nature & humanity and I hope that many like-minded spiritual people will join the spiritual cause & efforts.

My Visit to Almaty, Kazakhstan & Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan​

At the resort, I got the opportunity to offer spiritual-yoga consultation to many guests from different parts of India and foreign-tourists. Jan 2020, I got an opportunity to connect with a beautiful person. She had started an Ayurveda Centre in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and I shared about my spiritual journey, life experiences, and spiritual consultation services with her. We agreed to work together for some time, but then a lot of things happened which bring-us closer, we thought and agreed to be together, as life-partner. 

I went to Kazakhstan on 25th Feb 2020, the visit was only for 1 month, but within 14-15 days, around 12th March, the covid-pandemic was announced and lockdown everywhere, and I had to stay-back. At the same time, around 10th March, very unexpected problems started, obviously it was already planned before we realized it, by the employees of the Ayurveda center. It is another whole story, along with some official complaint and communication, money & misunderstandings etc., but finally they were safely sent back to India. I did the best to help her at that time, but the beginning of our relationship & small-family life has never been without problems, along with the lack of financial stability to settle-down and stay together. I do not have sufficient earnings or savings, and for now, I cannot sustain the family. I started from scratch, and I have built something, earned a living, it takes time but I did it. I hope things will improve in the future. 

I have gone through the hell of life, and I was not looking for new entanglement, at least for now, new relationship was the last thing in my mind, but things happened beyond imagination, again. If it was possible to run away or to stay away, I would have done it, but the life had other plans. Even after many years, I feel amazed like God chosen us for each other, and I had to accept the choice of life or universe. My first visit to Almaty and the beginning of my own small family-life, it was marked by the Saturn transit in the Capricorn zodiac sign, in Jan 2020, and the present situations & circumstances, marked by the upcoming Saturn transit in the Pisces zodiac sign, in Mar 2025. 

I have learned it, and I normally say that we may not have the options to make a choice in life, not always, but we must know our own choices, e.g., I did not choose my parents-family, and I may think that I will have the option to choose my love & life partner, but it is just another illusion. I am very happy and thankful for everything, that is my choice, and I am doing everything to save and sustain my small-family, but I will not make the same mistakes of life, not again. I will not make any compromises on toxic relationships, no more to show a fake-smile and pretend to be okay. I think that is spirituality and honesty, I am following and practicing it in real-life, whatever I am saying. I say something, I mean something else, I do something else, and I expect something else…why to make it so complicated? First, I grew up in a very toxic-abusive home environment, I had to fight and sacrifice so much to speak-up. Second, if there is a problem in relationship, I will say it as it is. I expect the other person to speak-up, and then it can be very simple & easy. 

I had reached a stage of life, when being alone was wonderful. I did not miss anyone and did not want anyone to come around, at peace in solitude, but it did not last long. I knew it, I did not want to suffer again, and I said it at the first instance, but this time, I was little bit prepared for the pain & problems of yet another relationship. On one side, I feel so helpless, weak & lonely, because I miss my family, I cannot do anything to hear that voice. On the other-side, my small-family, and my daughter, gave me the reason, purpose, and inspiration to work and to do whatever I am doing, since Aug-Sep 2020, as soon as I came back to India from Almaty, with the idea and aim to start the spiritual-yoga program, and writing my life-story, spiritual journey and experiences. ∙ 

I got a chance to interact with many people, from Almaty & also from Russia, Kyrgyzstan among other countries, who love and admire Indian culture and tradition and they would like to learn and follow Vedic astrology, Ayurveda, Yoga-Meditation, and other spiritual practices. I want to promote the spiritual program & spiritual tourism through spiritual coaching & consultation services. 

∙ Again, I got an opportunity to conduct a yoga-program for 2 months in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, in the month of June-July, 2023. Although, the yoga-program was not successful, but I got an opportunity to meet & interact with many people, learned a lot about the new place, culture & traditions. I got another opportunity to offer yoga-session, and extended the service & stay for another 2 months, and I returned-back to India by the last week of September, 2023. …
