| About Me

|
I am an introverted, basically honest, and spiritually inclined person who has learnt the hard way, after around four and a half years of struggling against the idea, that God as pure consciousness does indeed exist. I have said just in the previous line that I am a basically honest person so cannot hide the fact that I have also been suffering from schizophrenia and anxiety since the last 12 years, though I must also mention that now I am much better. I am heavily interested in matters spiritual and would like someone as a partner who fundamentally shares this interest. One of my favourite books is Autobiography of a Yogi, though I am not a follower of the lineage (yet?). I am yet to discover my spiritual path but have been looking for it since some time now. It was initially due to severe grief (partly caused by the illness mentioned above) that I became strongly drawn to spirituality and Vedic Jyotish. I hope to find an honest, caring, and spiritually inclined partner via this platform who becomes my best friend and confidant and with whom I can share my most intimate thoughts, good or bad, and not be judged. |

What brought me to my spiritual path and motivated my interest...
-
I knew a palmist in my college years in Delhi University who one fine day when I told him I wanted to part ways with him because I wanted to take independent decisions, much to my shock, revealed that his guru had graced him with a mystical experience. I went into hibernation then and some reflection on the matter told me that this person was a practitioner of unethical Left handed Tantra. Scared and swearing to myself that I won't believe in God ever if He could be reached via such unethical methods, I have been 'in hibernation' ever since though I now, after some reluctant spiritual reading and some reluctant spiritual reflection, believe that God exists as pure consciousness and astrology or clairvoyance can sometimes if not always be true. Though I still think about and hopefully want to figure out for myself whether ethics is necessary to reach God or not.
