Lineage & Soil
I was born and raised in India, married to a Brit, and self-realised in the UK.
India is not something I studied or chose.
It is the soil that shaped my nervous system, my mind, my heart, my way of seeing and living life.
I grew up in a culture where spirituality is not a topic; it is simply how life is.
Gods are everywhere and nowhere. Paradoxes merge beautifully, so we don't even notice the contradictions.
You pray. Then you eat. Then you dance. Then you argue, then you pray again.
The sacred is always present, like a background hum, that is often forgotten.
​
That rhythm is imprinted in my DNA. It lives in my body with ease, paradox, and intimacy with life.
​
​
​
A Culture Steeped in Life
​
India celebrates life in all its expressions.
​
Live and let live is not an idea there; it’s a lived intelligence, taken to its natural conclusion.
That’s why there are so many festivals. A festival for every day, something or the other to celebrate, a fast to observe, followed by a feast...or a night-long worship with feasting and dancing...any excuse to come together and party.
So many gatherings. So much colour, music, food, noise, laughter.
People come together to worship, to eat, to sing, to throw colour on each other, to celebrate being alive
Life is not endured. It is participated in, engaged with and celebrated.
​
That spirit lives in me, my work.
​
​
​
Living Between Two Worlds
Living fully inside both Indian and Western cultures has given me a comparative understanding, not just theoretical, but lived and embodied.
In the West, I see sincere effort, intelligence, and a genuine desire to heal. I also see exhaustion.
​
The Western psyche often gets caught up in: over-effort, self-monitoring, healing work becoming an identity, self-improvement turning into pressure, and knowledge appearing pretentious, somewhat anti-life, and anti-joy.
The Indian tradition has always known something different: That clarity does not come through effort.
It comes through contact, connection, getting in tune with life, through being met in a real heart-to-heart relationship.

​
Not a Blend - a Transmission
What I do is not a fusion or compromise.
It is a natural synthesis: Indian depth is expressed in a way the Western nervous system can actually receive and assimilate.
​
Attention returns to its centre, and life reorganises itself from there.
This transmission is never a correction, fixing, or healing. It is a simple yet vital reorientation that naturally rebalances everything else.
​
​
​
Transmission- Shaktipat
Indian lineage does not rely on methods.
Instead, ordinary human contact facilitates transmission. It has always been that simple in India. We don't do 'spiritual journeys'. We hang out in a certain vibe (Satsang) and that changes everything, heals everything.
A self-realised presence does what personal effort can't. People often don’t know how things changed, just that they have.
This is the oldest and most practical way wisdom is transmitted, long before techniques had names.
​A lit candle can light unlit candles.
​
Self - development
India does not work on the mind the way we see today...We have rituals, Mantras, practices and disciplines for alignment. But there is no tradition of working on mental issues like we see today. Working on issues causes more harm than good.
Indian wisdom is It allows the mind to be itself, not stopping, not fueling, so it naturally stops pretending to be the boss and returns to the toolbox as one of the tools. This is the essence of the spiritual journey.

​
Devotion & Divine order
India does devotion and obedience. In the Indian mind, devotion is neither submission nor subjugation.. Its not even secular; it is intelligent. It is aligned with the great scheme of things.
​
When divine order is aligned and authentic, it diminishes the ego rather than inflating it. It's not about higher or lower; it's the right placement.
​
The Western fear of obedience and gurus reflects a fear of hierarchy. This fear has remained unchallenged thus far.
​
When divine hierarchy is recognised, resistance diminishes. This creates openness and receptivity, allowing grace to flow and work effectively.
If a journey is accurate, you don’t do the journey; the journey does you.
You don't walk the path; the path lays itself out in front of you to walk. That's a spiritual journey done in the divine order.
Your only task is to stay.
​
​
​
The Tone of This Lineage
True wisdom is quiet, ordinary, and silently joyful. It's not a display of performance.
It's devoid of any need for spiritual theatre or claims of specialness. When truth is known, self-importance falls away.
What remains is humour, ease, ordinariness and a deep enjoyment of life as it is.
​
That is the lineage I stand in. That is the atmosphere people often feel when they meet me.
​
​
​
​​​​​Why This Matters
​
In India, spirituality lives quietly inside daily life. It's not something separate or set apart.
In the West, spirituality often takes on a different flavour.
It can begin to feel like another task, something to work on, improve, heal, or perform.
​
When these two orientations meet, confusion can arise.
Self-work and healing have their place and can be genuinely helpful.
But when they become the main focus, attention stays in the mind, on issues, emotions, identity, and on what needs fixing. That is an endless loop that brings no fulfilment and drains the joy from life.
This work moves you in a different dimension. It’s not at all about improving the person, but more about remembering what’s already complete.
​
Here, we don't heal. Nothing is broken. We allow life to reveal its wholeness, its true glory. That is time-bound progress in real time.
​
My work does not correct people; it returns them to their centre.
And from there, life knows exactly how to live itself.
