A person awakened to consciousness, feels an inner power that keep one unaffected by illusionary or material influences. The source of this is often passed as some saintly motivation by observing folks. But the two are very different.

The knowledge that we are connected to consciousness, and have a universe full of shaktipeeths, beings and energies, as a family and guide and destination, is a sobering power. One that keeps us pursuing the true purpose of this life, without any attachment to results, as we already know the purpose may be very different from the result – even hidden from all our thoughts. Just like say one gets a call to attend to a needy stranger, and goes for it. Irrespective of the outcome of this act, it happens that some other chance meeting is there and the call was just a medium.

The Manthan program has focused on all aspects of awakening the power within self: Understanding the current world and its motivations; understanding Bharat where consciousness, culture, knowledge have come together harmoniously; understanding the footprints of consciousness and discovering one’s call; and understanding the shaktipeeths, beings and energies around us on this journey.
