In 1994, I walked into a seminar produced by the Miracle of Love geared specifically for teens. I had no idea what to expect, but I knew that I wanted a change in my life. I was a pretty happy teenager, but something always felt like it was missing—excitement maybe, or a purpose for living, or some sort of explanation for the seemingly random suffering of so many people. Going to church never really interested me, although I liked the stories and the friends that I met through youth group. There were so many inherent contradictions in many religious teachings, and I never felt like people wanted to talk to me about what was really going on in the world.
In Miracle of Love Seminar, I found so much more than I could have ever dreamed.
Through a powerful, modern day meditation practice I was able to open my emotional body and have a safe place to actually feel all of the pains from my life that I had repressed. In the Seminar I was able to finally let go of many of those past pains, not because I covered them up again and tried to pretend to be happy, but because the modern day meditation provided a vehicle for me to release the emotions and find the truth that lived underneath those emotions. Through truly releasing these emotions, I began to find out who I was when I wasn’t pretending to be okay all the time. I got connected to the truest part of me that isn't controlled by fear or judgments or emotional reactions to situations that came up in my life. Most importantly for me, I found a real and profound connection to God. I went within in meditation and I got plugged in to the most powerful love I had ever experienced. This love came from within me, and I knew that this love was what I had been searching for in my life.
As I grew into an adult, I started on my spiritual journey and the Miracle of Love offered a serious path of spiritual transformation. Kalindi La Gourasana , one of the founders of the Miracle of Love and a spiritual master for the world, took me on as Her disciple, and my life has become filled with more love of God and more of a sense of who I truly am. I have continued to practice this modern day meditation, and every time I go within, my connection to God deepens. Within this connection to God, I have found strength, humility, compassion, and the drive to help others find a deeper love and satisfaction in their own lives whether or not it is with the Miracle of Love.
The spiritual path that Kalindi has set forth for serious spiritual seekers is powerful and is completely individual to what each person needs to find spiritual freedom. The meditation practice is totally new and has moved my spiritual development forward at such a rapid rate. Through Kalindi 's direction, I have felt more love with God, with myself, and with other people I come in contact with. I know that the only way to change the world is to change myself, and this path has helped me to transform so I can share more love and fulfill my personal destiny.
