What is life? Why am I here? Do I have some purpose? These are the questions we often ask ourselves either when we have achieved all our material desires or when we have failed in some big way. Or we could be in the prime of our time or might have seen many decades of our lives. Whatever might be the cause or whatever might be the time for asking these questions; each one of us sooner or later would want to find out the answers to these questions. There was uneasiness in me for the last few days, I felt very heavy in the head, in my cervical and was quite lethargic. At first I related all this to the current situation of work at home and exhaustion caused by it. Yet it seemed incomplete, that something was missing in the puzzle. I was looking at everyone and everything to find out the possible cause of my physical and mental discomfort. With all the above going in my reality, a subtle sensation crossed my mind and I decided to keep a free healing session at

How can you write or focus on anything when the mind is traveling in eight different planets?  Yet you gather all your strengths, make yourself a nice strong cup of cold coffee and sit down to write something; to say something because this quietude is literally taking the breath away.

Sometimes the things we fear most become our most powerful weapon. There is always a threshold to everything, to every experience, to every pain and to every fear. However, once you cross that threshold, that limit; your are free . In that particular moment when you have truly tasted what you feared most, your immunity takes charge. A certain defence mechanism which you were unaware to have ever existed in you, all of a sudden takes the control.     This immunity, this defence mechanism or freedom is actually your Courage . A gift that has been given to you by God, because if we didn’t have such element in us we would have been extinct by now. I have to admit that I have courage, and quite a lot of it. Thankfully, I experienced courage in a relatively healthy situation because there are many people who have to go through an ordeal to discover their courage. We always look for big events in our life to teach us lessons, so that we could become a better person. Ne
