Hi, I am Shreya, an HR professional. I did the Sudarshan Kriya workshop in 2010, and it has been a profound experience for me. I often wonder how my perspective on life would have been if I hadn’t done Sudarshan Kriya. For anyone on this path, it’s impossible to share everything in one story. It’s a blessing to be here, learning, falling, doing good and bad, whatever life throws our way. The only thing I know is that I don’t want to miss this path;
I don’t want to lose it. I have had white patches since I was eight years old. My family thought the workshop might cure it, but it gave me something far more valuable – the confidence to accept myself as I am. I transformed from an introvert to someone who can speak in front of people naturally. It’s most effective when surrounded by such beautiful people, ready to encourage, lift, and help meditate. After taking medication for many years, which started affecting my kidney and brain, I stopped taking it (not recommended). I began to see changes when I did my advanced course, and it reduced automatically. Even if I am full white, I am fine, I just want to be on this path. I vividly remember my first interaction with Gurudev, four years after my workshop. I met him in Bangalore Ashram, and when I saw him, tears started rolling down my face. I was unable to express my feelings and thoughts; I was overwhelmed with love and gratitude. He came through his car, and I was so shy to see him that I went back hiding, peeping from behind, tears rolling down, and my heart beating loudly.
