A chance mail, I embarked into a path, became a teacher and it has been one and half years of teaching. It is for a reason it is called the noblest profession. It has purified me, humbled me and fulfilled me like nothing else. As I begin the next chapter, looking back at this incredible journey, I am left with wonderment at how I began and what I have become today. How I began, with self-doubt, debating, questioning and second-guessing. I was not an expert at what I was teaching (Hindi). I was far from it. There was this feeling of being 'not enough'. But once I started teaching I realised, it is not about what you don't know. It is about what you know and how well you use what you have. With what I knew I could contribute so much to the tiny tots and they guided me into learning what I did not know. Such is life isn’t it, you cannot know everything.

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle”. A quote by Albert Einstein one of the greatest scientific minds known to humanity. Which one is yours? It was just another Monday. As the evening stretched by my excitement was soaring high.

The auditorium reverberated, excitement filled the air, and energy was not just seen and heard but felt in every corner of the hall. Over 1,300 of us were on our feet, jumping, dancing, screaming, squealing in ecstasy, joy, bliss and happiness. Young and old alike, from a three-month-old baby, to toddlers, to 75- and 80-year-olds, all celebrating in their own way, clapping, waving, dancing, drumming and whistling. A congregation of people from across the world, welcoming our annual residential retreat, Entrainment 25. It was a sight to behold as the auditorium roared in welcome for the one, our Guru Mahatria! Entrainment, a blend of Entertainment and Enlightenment, is the celebration of the birth of the name ‘Infinitheism’, the spiritual movement founded by my Guru Mahatria.
