I feel really blessed to have been selected by my marvelous Guru to walk on the path. My story is one that will kindle the lamp of faith in the hearts of many. I had been suffering since 2009, with severe immobilizing pain, swelling and burning in my left thigh & abdomen. This was the result of multiple failed surgeries, which caused grave damage to the nerves. Medically this condition is a post-operative femoral Neuropathy at inguinal ligament. It results in complete limitation in living, because of which there arises a feeling of disappointment and helplessness regarding the future course of one’s life. On very little exertion, I would experience immense pain, and lack of physical strength to perform normal everyday activities.  Allopathic doctors said that there was not much hope but still attempts could be made for a fourth surgery, where the chances of recovery and improvement would be very bleak. But having faced tremendous problems in earlier such attempts, I...

I had read many of Gurudev's articles, books and watched His knowledge sheets in audio, but it wasn't until 2006 that I met Him for the first time.  That's when the feeling actually started sinking in. It’s like when you make a scrumptious dish, you need to know the right recipe, but it's only when you taste the dish that you realise its value.  Same was my encounter with Gurudev. Since then, my life has witnessed various ups and downs, and other challenges. But I have always sensed a Divine hand on my soul.  I have always sailed through, with a smile on my face. With His grace, I have been able to endure it all, with my calm intact, always. One day, a person asked me about this sudden change in my attitude, that I always seemed happy and jovial. I told him that the secret for it was nothing but my Guru, and since then even he is excited to come around and know more about the Art Of Living.  Over the past 10 years, from whatever personal experiences I hav...

Recently, I did an AMC at the Ashram. Normally Guruji gives Darshan to all the AMC participants at the end of the course. This time was no exception either.  The Darshan went really well and I was really happy after meeting Gurudev. I met Gurudev once more that week, and I felt that all my questions were answered. It's such a state of bliss one feels on seeing Him, it's truly unexplainable.  The following week, while working with the Ashram Events & Promotions team, news came that Gurudev was going to meet people in the evening. One of my fellow Ashram sevak (volunteer) was the first one to know about it.  He was really excited to meet Gurudev, as this was his first time at the Ashram. He asked me if I could accompany him in the evening at the Darshan queue. I was in two minds.  It was only last week that I had met Gurudev, and secondly there was a lot of pending work. But still I said a 'yes' to my friend, just to keep him motivated. Very soon our da...

The 21st century is rightfully called the Biological Century. More technological breakthroughs in the medical and industrial spheres are expected with heavily funded research programs underway in most countries of the world. Developments in the fields of biology and medicine, such as human genome sequencing and research to create cell and organ functions, have led to a critical change in many industrial segments and strengthened the medical engineering profession.

They can then create innovative solutions and make commercial products. Hence the biomedical engineer leverages research in biology and medical field...
