For over 30 years, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry, building businesses around medicine and healing. Yet, behind the scenes, I was struggling myself.Chronic pain, digestive issues, and inflammation slowly weakened my body. By 45, doctors advised me to avoid simple activities like walking alone or sitting on the ground. I felt trapped as if life had shrunk into fear and limitation.

But what hurt more than the physical pain was the mental toll; frustration, helplessness, and the feeling of losing the life I loved.

That became my turning point.I stepped away from everything and moved to the mountains of Dharamshala. There, I immersed myself in meditation, Vipassana, mindful movement, and years of silence and self-inquiry. Serving at monasteries and living simply helped me rebuild not just my body, but also my mind.

Since my teenage, I have been in the habit of doing meditation sitting in lotus posture for two to three hours in the morning.

My dedication to meditation taught me resilience, clarity, and inner stability.Today, at 63, I feel mentally stronger and more peaceful than ever before.
