Awakening can come anytime !

Life can really spring surprises on us, good ones as well as bad ones. It is like driving through mountains. We can't see beyond a certain point and do not know what lies beyond the turning.

Certain events in our life make us realise that we have no power over them. Whether we like it or not we have to face them, it is like going through a dark tunnel to reach our destination - one must go through it to come out of it.

Being in the midst of a natural calamity like earthquake/cyclone etc or a riot or a  sudden loss of your job, friend or a near and dear one - any of these can throw us out of our balance and we struggle to find our equanimity.

In my experience these traumatic situations of life are the moments of awakening. Someone said that "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger".  After the initial feeling of doom, anxiety, frustration, even anger one eventually moves on because nothing is permanent and it requires a lot of energy for one to remain in a negative state of mind forever. The time span of his moving on differs from person to person. It is the wisdom quotient in us which determines this shift within us and in my experiences wisdom has to be gained from what happens to us in life.

The good news is that we are not alone in this. Help is all around us and we just need to reach out. Learning Reiki and practising it everyday apart from the sessions of Transcendental meditation is what helped me in my journey. My Reiki teacher, guide and friend Mr. Surinder Makker was always just a phone call away.
