Let me divide my life into 2 innings:

1^st Inning of my life:

A journey of a Sales Executive to the Director of HDFC Private Banking, Dubai

And I said good bye to the corporate world at the age of 40 after achieving financial independence.

Let me just give you the background about myself. I come from a humble background; my father has worked with Bhilai Steel Plant (BSP) a division of SAIL & retired as a non executive employee. My schooling was also from the BSP school where the fees was just Rs 13 per quarter. And I flunked in my 12^th Grade & felt as if it is over and I am not good enough. I won’t be able to lead even an average life what most of the people do get. I felt like a loser.

I was trying to find ways to commit suicide those days but fortunately I didn’t succeed. However I somehow completed my schooling & I went to Indore for my BBA degree & then did my MBA from my father’s entire retirement money. I knew & realized how big & important was that money for us & hence I became a bit sincere & got some sense of responsibility.

During my job campus I had 3 choices in hand, one was with Asian Paints, 2^nd was with CEAT RPG Group & 3^rd was with Way2Wealth Securities. I opted for Way2Wealth which was a much lesser known brand but I listened to my heart then the advises coming from my seniors & others.  And I am so grateful that I took that call which came from my inner self & fortunately I had worked in the same industry till my last day in the corporate world. Job has given me a lot of comfort, great lifestyle and pleasure of driving good cars like Mercedes and living in my own flat in Dubai.

Things were all going ok & mundane till that day in 2018 when I was organizing & rearranging my old documents & what I found was a letter which I wrote in year 2000, during the last year of my graduation in Indore.      

AMBITION IN LIFE

My Ambition in life is to make positive and enduring contributions to society after taking care of the needs of myself and my family. I don’t want to lead a life like a frog in the well. I want to explore the world and push myself to higher challenges. At the same time I don’t want to get caught in a purposeless rat race for the sake of greed and power. While I want to be ambitious in the right sense of the world, I would not like to be over-ambitious.

This letter was a trigger that made me think & contemplate again about what I was doing? Where would I be by the time I am retired? Is this what I am capable of? Is this what I wanted from this life? Or can I do much bigger things in life than just eating food, doing work, travelling and dying one fine day?

I had a discussion with my wife Bhavna & we took this decision of coming back to our home country India after the kids final exam in Feb 2019 from Dubai.

Many of my friends & colleagues who were obviously concerned about me asked: Why am I taking this drastic decision of leaving a place like Dubai where I was living for 14 years & I had so much of comfort and yet planning to settle back in India that too in a small township like Bhilai?

So I thought of answering on face book (social media) that may give answers to many of my friends which otherwise I have to keep repeating the same thing to each individual many a times, Hence I wrote this:

On 4^th of Feb 2019, I posted this on my facebook:

Dil se nikli hui dil ki baat ..

Someone said, “you don’t know what all you are going to lose, I said I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I AM GOING TO GET”

“Apne hi paani mei pighal jaana barf ka muqaddar hota hai” – By Swades movie

It is the time to follow what I have been waiting for long to follow my heart, inner desire & dreams. To be frank it is obviously a tough decision to leave a place like Dubai which has given me everything whether it is lifestyle, financial comfort or friends for life. Having said that sooner or later one has to choose between the so called comfortable life or to follow your heart & do things which you actually want to do. Now the time has come to go back to my native place Bhilai from where I belong. People who are close to me knows everything about me that this is something which I always wanted to do i.e. first to be with my parents & family and secondly to return or give back to the society in whatever little form I can.

Now thoda filmi istyle mei -

“Door se commentary dena bahut aasaan hota hai. Doosaroon ko gali dena aur bhi aasaan. Agar tumhe itne hi problem hai toh tum badlo naa iss desh ko? Yeh tumhara bhi desh hai. Politics join karo, police ya IAS main bharti ho jao, badlo cheezon ko. Lekin tum nahi karoge. Mai batau kyon? Kyoki ghar ki safai mei hath gande kon karen? Agar itni himmat hai, toh aage badho. Badlo iss desh ka future” - By Rang de Basanti movie

On a serious note, God has given me so much love that a thank you would not be enough to show my gratitude. Anything & everything in my life happened by blessings of elders & by grace of god.

I need all your prayers, wishes & blessings so that I can live a meaningful life rather than just existing in this beautiful world.

And needless to say distance can never separate anyone of us, if there is a connection, universe will find a way to bring us together in some way or the other.

I’ve got to get going.

2^nd Inning of my life:

March 2019, I came back home (India), where my heart and soul always wanted to be in.

Here comes my 2^nd inning of life where I have done lot of contemplation & started doing research about LIFE. Again I had 2 choices one was to live a comfortable life without doing anything specific as by God’s grace we are financially independent & second choice is to live a life with a Purpose to see myself as a real HERO who can do much more to the world than by just taking care of my own self & family.

I had done an extensive research by reading, watching & attending various trainings and workshops of the world renowned personalities like Dandapani, Dr MVP, Tony Robins, Bob Proctor, Dr Joe Vitali, Sandeep Kumar, Blair Singer, Dr Meghana, Dr John Demartini, Sadguru and many more which resulted in having a clarity of my life’s mission & vision. And I am a founder of “Awakening with VKR”

Mission: I am on a mission to serve & transform the life of every individual who are attending my sessions, by awakening them from within to find their best version, thereby progressing exponentially in all important areas of their life personally, professionally & spiritually.

Vision:  My Vision is to formulate a world class proven system that may serve & guide people to awaken & transform, which will continue to work effectively & efficiently, even when I am not alive.

How will I achieve my Mission / Vision:

I am the founder of “Awakening with VKR”, I am a certified master practitioner practicing various modalities, tools  & techniques including those of  NLP, Healing, Meditation, Vipassana, Inner Engineering, Energy Management, Pranic Healing, Lama Fera, Reiki, Sound healing and many more Universal Laws which work at all levels Body, Conscious, Subconscious  & Soul level.

Awakening with VKR comprises of four stages: Transformation happens from one level to another.

1. Victimhood to
2. Empowerment to

There has been so many rock bottom downfalls and challenges I have faced in my life, since my childhood till date but fortunately I had the mentors who helped me & with their right guidance I am what I am today. These are simple art and science principles based on Universal Laws. Hence it is my moral duty to share these techniques and secrets with the help of which anybody can transform their life.

I have started getting recognition for my work & experience; however this award is so unique & I am so grateful to receive this title of “Asia’s Outstanding Life Coach Award” that too from the Asia Award powered by World Research Congress which is an International standard recognized award. I am so honored to receive this award where more than 20 countries are participating. I feel so blessed and thanking God for this moment.

“With such a huge recognition by Asia Awards comes a great power & with great power comes great responsibility”
