The Beginning

The study of the Indian Scriptures for a novice like me, at the lotus feet of my Sadguru Maa Samvida, has bought me immense joy, peace and contentment. I began to question – What if people can use contemplate practices to help them succeed in life and work? What if contemplative practices can be made beneficial to both people’s careers and to the business bottom line?

Sharing this with my mentor MCC Peter J Reding, I decided to pursue my Master’s Program in Coaching with Coach for Life, USA as I felt compelled to create an offering of my life’s experiences and a fine-tuning of my learning of life.

I have embarked on a year-long journey under his tutelage to integrate my understanding of The Bhagwat Gita into a language that compulsively pragmatic people like me can process and apply As part of this program I have built a model of coaching that is unique to my offering. I decided to call this Back to Source Coach Reconnecting the Soul (of the Indian Working Woman) to harness their Infinite Potential.

 

My 16-year-old son asked me, 

u

Why would one want to do that?

u

What is the relevance of going Back to Source?

Answering his questions formed the genesis of this article.

As shared earlier, I have been consistently studying Vedanta for the last 10 years and my understanding of life through Her teaching is crystallised as follows

Life is a series of experiences, some of which leave us happy and some which leave us disappointed, both these states are short-lived, temporary and cyclical in nature

It is possible to find permanent happiness or contentment as She calls it through embarking on an inward journey in search of The Truth

On this journey, I discovered that the root cause of all our sorrows and sufferings is the loss of contact with our true Self. This Self is called by various names, such as Atman, Purusha, Soul, Spirit and God

The loss of contact with the Self is due to ignorance of its sole reality. Ignorance creates spiritual blindness and subjects us to a world of delusion and desire

No material or psychological solution can dispel this ignorance. Our recovery is possible only by re-establishing contact with our true, inmost Self or what I call Source

We are all Spiritual Beings, having a human existence

I have looked high and low to find the source of this quote to thank them as this is what triggered my inward journey and I realised that we are all on a spiritual path – some of us are conscious of it and some are not, that is the only difference.

Back to Source Coach is a synthesis of all my knowledge, techniques and life experience to this point in my life. My focus is on aligning an individual with the blueprint of their Source so that they are able to activate the will to follow their life path, using their insight and ability to see and feel their energy, derived from their reconnection.

As a Back to Source Coach, I endeavour to restore my client’s connection with their Source such that the client can choose how to live and what to do for a living, in the process, they may begin to love their life or not, that too is their choice.

Back to Source has been my journey to finding meaning and fulfillment in life, with the Grace of my Spiritual Master and the tutelage of my Coaching Master, I am now ready to offer my unique model, Back to Source Coach journey to the first 6 Indian Working Women, who are aged between 35 to 45 years of age, successful at the work they do are committed to harnessing their infinite potential by embarking on an inward journey of Self Mastery.
