FINDING A COACH

I didn’t know where to start. Yoga was the easiest. At the basement of my building there were yoga classes being conducted. I signed up and became adept at it, head-stand et all. I got introduced to many different healing practices too. A couple of personal transformation courses got added on. I cruised along from one thing to another trying to absorb as much as I could. I was looking for something, but what it was I had no clue. The void was wide and deep, and I didn’t know how to get my way around.

A friend seeing my struggle suggested I attend a course to discover my inner being. I had no clue about what I was getting into, but I was so desperate. I attended the course. Honestly, the course did not make any sense to me, but strangely a year later, it all seemed to come into place. 

Personal transformation isn’t easy. My ego was strong and put up a stiff resistance. It rejected everything based on what it had learned from birth. I either liked something, or disliked it, based on a frame of reference I had no clue about. I needed something to handle my strong egotist mind. This course had the key. 

The teacher lived in a different city and I was eager for more. I started to organiSe courses for the teacher in Bangalore, so I could get an opportunity to be with him and learn more. Working with a master was no easy task. There was nothing like pleasing him to get a favour or get approval. My authentic state of being was the only way to get approved. That was hard, I had no experience of this world before.
