Are You Here To Be A Healer? 201What event or series of events led you to your discovery?
It’s by the grace of God that that comes. We can think that there’s a
series of events that led to this, but cause and effect only takes place in
the material world. In the spiritual world, there is not cause and effect,
so there’s no event that actually brings God realization. It is a gift of God
that comes, and we do our best by whatever work we do on ourselves to
attain enlightenment and become our true and divine god-like selves.
And this works in our favor.
I first got on the spiritual path in this lifetime, at around seventeen
years old, through prayer. I think if there’s really any type of event that
helps people to attain God-realization, self-realization, to recognize who
they are and their relationship with God and how life works it’s through
prayer. God is in the heart of every living being (Mother-Father God).
So, everybody is always in close contact with the divine witness and the
divine guide. I would say, whatever anybody wants, whatever it is
spiritually or materially, you go to the source and sincerely do your
prayers, as this is always has worked for me.
If you could give advice to those who are still searching for their
life’s purpose, what would it be?
Pray and ask for what you want and at the same time really have an open

sometimes we turn our back to it because we don’t want to learn anymore,
or we don’t want to hear anymore, or we’re really fixated on our beliefs
or our past conditioning. That’s what I have found is the biggest stumbling
block, because people have a concept of who they are but the concept of
who they are may not be who they are. They have a concept of how life
works, which may have nothing at all to do with how life works.
I would say that when they ask and pray to really have an open
mind. Then when knowledge comes to them, before they eliminate it,
really meditate on that and ask for guidance. I would also recommend
that people study the teachings of Jesus. I like the four gospels: Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John. I’d also recommend they read the Bahavagita,
which is a very powerful book on the distinction between the self and
the body and our purpose and mission in life. In these teachings, which
are usually somewhere in the teachings of the great religions of the world,
there are the principles of life. When they understand these things they
can learn to apply them, and the basic thing is that we’re here to become
