I practiced chakra healing for myself and other people for many years. Every time I healed someone, I felt exponential rewards coming towards me. Chakra healing is taking on other people’s karma on oneself, in return the spiritual energy of Self becomes so strong, to not only remove karma and obstacles of others, but also life gets guided towards the highest level of spirituality. The Secret Book is a pathway, a journey that I took towards Spiritual Awakening. I owned two properties in Bay Area California, traveled worldwide and went to Spiritual places like Machu Picchu, Stonehenge, Mount Shasta, Roman Bath, Mexican pyramids, Auliya (Saint) graves in India, Buddhist and Hindu temples in India, Hong kong and many other places. I worked for successful internet social media startups, social networks, Lockheed Martin and defence, e.g. F-16, F-22, NASA, International Space Station, and also build my own internet startups for helping local food and farmers’ markets through small business marketing tools, utilizing Facebook and Twitter. Through the years, my thirst of spiritual knowledge increased. I started having visions of Shiva that "We are not humans, rather celestial beings. If you let this house go, there is a treasure underneath". I left home, spent days in youth hostels, suddenly to remember Brahmananda Ashram again. I have been going to Brahmananda Ashram in San Francisco, California since 2000. I learned the art of chakra healing and Raja Yoga through disciples of Sri Brahmananda Saraswati, Doctor Ramamurti Mishra MD, a brilliant brain and heart Surgeon, who turned into a Maha-Yogi. I was doing very strong healing work with the blessings of the guru. Many spiritual events started happening at an exponential rate. I am also a palmist, and I could read a very strong spiritual influence through the planetary charts. The more the darkness, the more the light. Hence I continued my head down, serving God at every opportunity I got. Keeping my thoughts focused on God and the guru, paying attention to every detail of my life, making the best decision as possible and staying away from grief and emotional decisions. Most importantly, I remained celibate, staying away from any sexual encounters that would jeopardize my spiritual growth. I was walking down the street in San Francisco to find Orthodox Christian Church on Fulton where there is huge presence of Russian Christians, influenced by Mother Mary. I walked in the Church to find Father James, who was very pleased to meet me. After hearing my story, Father James suggested I go to Mount Shasta, St Herman Monastery of Alaska. The monastery would be a great healing place for me. In December 2011, I spent 3 weeks in the monastery, living with the monks, listening to scriptures, praying for forgiveness, doing mudra healing and moving energy around in my body to purify and cleanse. I started having visions of Jesus, Mother Mary, Father Seraphim Rose and many other saints at the monastery. I would hear Mother Mary voice, "These are my Saints and I watch over them". I was very happy to get so close to divinity. I received lots of divine guidance for the future. After spending three weeks at the monastery, I decided to come back to Brahmananda ashram and right away had Shiva and Krishna visions as a continuation of my visions from the monastery. The new few months, I ingrained myself in deep spiritual practices, lots of mantras, yoga, found a friend at local wine bar that helped me build trust in women. Nothing physical took place, but according to Mother Mary guidance at the monastery, Alex, my friend and owner at the wine bar was important for me coming back to life, a new life. I started hearing Brahmananda voice constantly and whenever needed, "You are my son, nothing can go wrong". A key figure in my journey to spiritual awakening.
