Every soul has a journey. Mine led through pain, healing, and inner growth—toward the discovery that true love lives within us. What I share now comes from lived experience, and from the grace of teachers and inner guidance along the way…
Grateful to Serve
Today, I’m deeply grateful that I now have a way to help others let go of struggle—and begin to love and enjoy themselves, others, and the world.
But it wasn’t always this way.
A Painful Beginning
I remember struggling with a sense of not being loved—even in my mother’s womb. My early childhood brought experiences of sexual abuse, abandonment, and a deep feeling of not being good enough. All of it seemed to carry one message: I was not loved.
As a teenager, I turned to drinking, smoking, and relationships too early. At times, suicidal thoughts would arise. All of this was part of an unconscious journey in search of love.
A Mysterious Encounter
In my early twenties, I had a mystical experience. I was walking down a street in my neighborhood when a young man who had been quietly following me asked,
“What do you really want in life?”
I paused, turned inward, and suddenly burst out:
“I just want to be happy.”
When I looked up, the young man had vanished—nowhere to be found. That mysterious encounter stayed with me.
The Search Begins
Though I continued in my old patterns for a while, something inside had shifted. Slowly, I began taking steps out of suffering. I became vegetarian, read spiritual books like Autobiography of a Yogi, took my first yoga class, and stayed briefly at an ashram in London.
After moving to the U.S., I learned to meditate. Soon after, my search for a spiritual master began—and in 2006, I was blessed to meet my guru.
A Path of Transformation
With my teacher’s guidance, I began to transform. I learned how to let go of the past, to release old patterns and conditioning. I also studied how the mind works, how emotions and chakras move energy, and the nature of consciousness, life, and death.
Gradually, I began to feel lighter. More energized. More alive.
“True love is not something outside of us. It is our inner being, our true nature.”
India: A Sacred Chapter
I spent six years living in South India—immersed in the culture, the spiritual traditions, and deep meditation. I stayed at ashrams, visited ancient temples, and met enlightened beings. I also traveled solo to sacred sites, most notably the Kumbha Mela—the largest spiritual gathering on Earth.
This time of deep immersion changed my life.
Remembering True Love
Over time, I came to see that the events of my life—even the painful ones—were guiding me inward, toward the discovery of true love.
“The painful events in my life were invitations to look deeper and to remember love.”
True love is not something we get from another. It is who we are. It is our birthright, our true nature—and it can be remembered by anyone who is ready.
A Call to Love
My path continues to unfold. It is an ongoing return to the love and presence that have always been here. And I believe the world simply needs more love—more love for ourselves, for each other, and for the Earth. This is the heart behind my work at Anahata Ministry.
If you’re ready to let go of the past and remember your wholeness, let’s talk.
