Life should be a play

Are you becoming too serious in life?
Do you feel tired and lack of zest in your work?

I was trained since young to be serious when it comes to work. The education system and the society I was brought up taught me to be goal-oriented and performance-driven. When the goals became the driving force for work, the mind would create the unnecessary pressure and expectations which put so much stress in the process of working and stifled my creativity and flow of energy.

I still remember a couple of incidents in my life which I suffered so much from being too serious about work. First was during my second year examination in University, I fell very sick 4 weeks before the examination. My body-mind was so weak that I couldn’t hold any awareness to study which created immense fear in me. The more I tried to study due to the anxiety, the more I failed miserably. The comparative nature in me was literally killing me.

Spread my wings and soar

In life, we go through phases of expansion – whether it is in different life stages, career moves or spiritual growth. Every time we expand we are moving towards life because life is all about continuous expansion. The moment we have a shrinking feeling or resistance towards life, be very clear, we start moving towards death.

This feeling of readiness to take off, to soar to the sky came after I attended a 3-month program called Nithyananda Yogam program and Sadashivoham 2016, 21-day yoga and spiritual retreat in Bangalore with my Guru, Paramahamsa Nithyananda – a living Avatar (fondly known as Swamiji)! The master had given the disciples like me so many initiations during the 3 months of living around him in his breathing space. The energy and shaktis (powers) that he awakened in me has started to sprout like a sapling from a seed.

The first visible expression is the incorporation of a second company called Space of Purity and Awareness (SPA) but this time it is happening in Hong Kong. This expansion came after I started coaching a group pf new aspiring spiritual entrepreneurs in February using Swamiji’s teaching and my own experiences. During the coaching, the Hong Kong devotees decided to band together to start a venture in offering the world with the different creative talents that each one of us came down with in our bio-memory. This is time it has a very different spin as compared to my first company – Other Ways of Learning which I started eight years ago. At that time, it was mainly for the purpose of sharing my gifts with humanity such as science of yoga and healing.

Be a leader of your life

Last weekend on 1-2 April, I attended an enlightening workshop by a living avatar, Paramahamsa Nithyananda (fondly known as Swamiji). The tittle of the workshop was “Be Your Own Boss – Manifesting Leadership Consciousness”. In this workshop, he gave the 3 important principles for becoming your own boss which I am going to share here. Now, for those of you who are seriously considering jumping out of the corporate rat race to become your own boss or you are already your own boss, you will find some of these insights useful alongside with my own experience.

Swamiji said:”In Vedic tradition, everything starts with Saraswati (right knowledge). All solutions start with right knowledge as Saraswati is capable of manifesting Durga (power) and Lakshmi (abundance). What cognitions you carry about freedom, wealth and boss?”
