Hi there! My name is Vasundhra.
It means Earth in Sanskrit. And I’ve always wondered why my grand-dad picked this heavy-duty name for me.
It didn’t make sense until I married my partner, Sagar (aka ocean). The message was clear: all the answers are within me.
My name became my destiny; my hunt for those answers that I was craving for. The search had already compelled me to leave my corporate job when I got married, and now it’s become clear that the quest is for enlightenment.
Of course, I didn’t have clarity on this for YEARS. I started off feeling quite hopeless and helpless when the journey first began. It was what we call the “dark night of the soul”. Questions about existence, identity and life’s purpose bothered me for months.
Even though I was working at my “dream job” and had the nicest friends, family and ideas of fun, I ached in pain as I wondered what the point of life was – shouldn’t there be more meaning beyond the weekday job and weekend errands / parties?
One day, I saw 11:11 on the clock on one of the lowest days of my life, and I knew I was being carried by a force much greater than any human could imagine.
The Universe was showing me the light, and I reached out to touch it.
That light was a bundle of spiritual synchronicities that led to me being “shaken awake”.
And writing felt like a release for my mind which was otherwise collapsing on itself. I started sharing spiritual messages as an anonymous Instagram writer. Then, as more people liked what my mind was saying, I started answering metaphysical questions on Quora.
My work eventually expanded to this blog and I am now also wearing other hats through authoring books + coaching spiritually-minded clients. Someday, I also hope to create self-paced courses for the masses so that the work I teach in my private sessions becomes more accessible. Who knows what else will I feel called to serve through?
As my understanding of my soul’s expressions grows, so do my ways of serving the world. But my biggest pursuit is and will always be enlightenment.
Human Life Isn’t A Block To Enlightenment, It Is the ROAD
When I talk about Enlightenment, and often tell people that I don’t want to come back here again, they think I’m taking this journey “too seriously”.
But my philosophy isn’t renouncing the world, even though at one point I was tempted to shave my head bald and live in a monastery in Macleodganj.
I came back from that trip to discover that my way “back home” to myself was while riding through the waves of my human home life. The following month, I said yes to marrying my partner and greatest teacher: unlocking a new level of healing and growth.
So behind the scenes, I am still a cookie monster, an ordinary Indian woman who likes to cook for her family, watch animation movies…and much more!
I believe we can be in this world, and make it better, without getting too attached to its pleasures. Yet, enjoying every bit of it as it comes.
In other words, we can transcend our reality, not by suppressing it, but by consciously living through it.
That is the crux of my work. And this work is expressed through writing, talking, and teaching about spirituality to whoever gives me their time. So whether you are a silent follower of my writings or work with me more intimately, just know that I am always at your service, helping you experience your spiritual shenanigans.
And if I can do anything to help you experience all these paradigm shifts for yourself, know that I am just an email away!
Love, Light & Awareness,
Vasundhra
