My Journey to India: A Turning Point Worth Sharing

In the picture above Dr. Satyajith was visiting Rishikesh getting blessings from Ma Ganga, in preparation for our retreat in February 2024.

The fascination with India has always been a magnet for wanderers and seekers. With its rich history, spirituality, and culture, it promises a journey unlike any other. I too had been attracted by its mystic charm for many years, and, with a heart full of questions and dreams, I deliberated making the journey.

Becoming a mother at the youthful age of 19 and nurturing two wonderful children was an enriching, challenging, and rewarding journey. When my youngest turned 18, a new chapter unfolded before me. Free from the immediate responsibilities of raising children, I stood at a crossroads, ready to enthusiastically pursue my career, explore the vast world through travel, and delve deeper into my personal aspirations. A the time I was also working a 9-5 desk job in my field. I knew this was not what I had studied and worked so hard for in my life. Very grateful nonetheless for the opportunity to learn about starting a new business. I was aching for change, but I lacked direction and inspiration. Tired from the daily grind, and knowing my potential wasn’t explored or seen, my long-awaited moment—a golden opportunity to truly nourish my soul and embark on a journey of growth arrived when I met Dr. Satyajith on his online Satsang’s filled with so much knowledge and authenticity.

After a few months of thinking and not knowing if this was the best decision, to leave my job and go find myself in a foreign land with someone I barely knew. One thing was for sure, my intuition was loud and clear, GO! Yes, I did not know how it was going to happen, but I trusted my teacher’s words. Yet, when I shared my uncertainty, Dr. Satyajith responded, "You will be here when Kala decides." Kala is the goddess of time. Those words, mysterious yet profound, stayed with me. Just a month prior, if you had suggested that I'd be traveling to India to embrace my destiny, I would have never believed it.

When my feet first touched the grounds of India, in a serene town in the south of India, called Udupi I didn’t anticipate the profound changes I was about to experience. Here, I met Dr. Satyajith in person, an inspiration of Ayurvedic wisdom, whose teachings resonated with me on a deeply spiritual level.

From the moment I arrived, Dr. Satyajith’s team extended warmth and meticulous care, ensuring that my stay was more than just comfortable—it was transformative. They created an environment where I could disconnect from the chaos of the world and truly connect with myself.

Every session, every class, and every conversation with Dr. Satyajith led me to unravel layers of self-awareness and healing. What I had mistaken for scars were, in fact, wounds still longing for care and attention. Under his guidance, I learned to address these with compassion understanding, and gentle awareness.

The rewards of this experience extended far beyond my time in Udupi. The tools and teachings I gathered served as catalysts, not only enriching my personal life, and deepening my Ayurvedic knowledge, but also lighting the path for a new professional chapter. It was in those sacred moments of reflection and realization that the seeds for Amogha Ayurveda were sown.

With the continuing support and wisdom of Dr. Satyajith, what began as a personal quest for deepening my Ayurvedic studies evolved into a broad healing experience and a business collaboration. Together, we founded Amogha Ayurveda, This journey is a testament to the transformative power of taking that leap into the unknown and the magic that unfolds when we follow our heart, we find purpose.
