When The Student Is Ready The Teacher Appears - I
There's An Old Saying, When The Student Is Ready The Teacher Appears.
Looking back in 2002: I had a little windfall from a project I worked hard at and with that win, I bought myself a brand new SUV - bright yellow it was - absolutely outstanding! I only had a moment of happiness then back to a void within me that was all too familiar. That was when I started my journey of active search.
I must have searched on and off for close to three years and in Oct 2005, in a mountain - Mt. Abu - in Northern State of Rajasthan, I finally found what I seek only to realise now that this is the begining of true living...and true being. It was very much an Ah-Ha! for me. The love I felt at the gathering - little that I knew back then that it was a spiritual gathering. Little that I realise that I was fortunate to be amongst a group of very stable-minded yogi. That was also a period of my life when I was near burnt-out. I remembered I was invited to Peace of Mind Retreat organised by the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University. I did not had much time in my preparation as I just decided to accept the invitation and decided to just go with the flow of things.
Hours before I took off my journey from Kuching, I picked up the Celestine Prophecy as it was I thought at that time a book most apt for a journey to Mt Abu. Yes, that was the begining of a series of amazing happening in my life that I can only reason it as it has got to do with a Greater Force. I simply got so spell-bound with the Celestine Prophecy that I began to live the book in my journey to Mt Abu and my stay there. The essence of it was whoever you meet - there's a reason to it. I simply live the moment and let the moment come to me and go with the flow. It was magical! They often says it's magical Mt Abu. Yes it is. Years of yoga by yogi who practice purity simply purifies the atmosphere there.
This was the begining of my journey from a yuppie to a yogi.
