Prasad Karmarkar Reiki

This is my ode for woman’s day. A day when I choose to share my journey through the past two years. I invited death!! It’s been a battle for me from last year……..I chose to move from one space to another……..physically and spiritually, from the materialist world to a world of just being, to a world of surrender, to the world where I could contribute all my talent and experience in the space of spirituality. The spiritual world was no longer like going to the Himalayas and being in deep meditation, the context has changed, the perception has become different, those in the materialistic world, deeply in the throes of relationships and corporations envisaged to dip themselves in the sea of spirituality and cleanse and move continuously. This is where I saw myself contributing…….. The move was disaster…….did not work…….but the resilience and support that the universe provided to me helped me spring back to the so-called materialistic world but now I was armed with the

Hey, it's almost a month since I wrote anything, Oct has been unique and truly inspiring for me. I appreciate everything that I have got and every moment I live. Life is blooming like a flower in full bloom. October is that month of the year I wait for very eagerly, we have the reiki intensive transformation workshop at GOA. I was very excited and was looking forward to going to Goa, not only would I meet my guru Prasad Karmarkar Reiki  but would meet nearly 80+ people of my reiki family and over 40+ new members who will enter this beautiful ring of light and become part of ‘the family’. This year the intensive was truly magical, I was barely out of my surgery but participated 100% in all the exercises and meditations. we had a wonderful surprise – Karnamrita Dasi – one of the dream singers of bhajans and kirtans came to be part of our workshop along with our dearest devotional singer Sundaram. Both of them made our workshop truly spiritual and magical. I came ba

The week that went past had kept me on tenterhooks, I am now in full zoom……..happy and gungho…..my surgery date is fixed for Aug 25 at 7.30 am precise, am all in preparation. I am blowing balloons so that my lungs get in better shape…..steam inhalations for all the tracts to be clear of any congestions, walking so my legs are not swollen and fit, eating only chapatis and subzi to keep my tummy in condition and light, all this cool for physical preparedness, but most importantly I am very very well prepared mentally, the secret is the: My dear friend Vaidy reminded me that I had not encountered the secret and told me to buy the book immediately. What’s more I went to crossword and bought the book pronto……… I began reading the secret that has engulfed me and my life…..stunning book, am just reeling in the effects of the secrets. It’s just toooooo fantastic. I have already visualized myself walking out of the hospital all fine and happening. I am feeling so en

The week bygone has been a week full of apprehension and tension, as days are passing I am getting so very impatient and intolerant of my physical status, I am waiting for the surgery to take place and be done with it once and for all. Post-December the surgery was supposed to be done 6 months later, I was eagerly waiting in June, these six months have been very tough and difficult not only physically but challenging mentally and psychologically too. When I met Dr. Chandan in June he discussed with me many issues that could go wrong and right for this surgery. He suggested I take a precautionary dose of pride which would shrink the size of the uterus thereby making it easy for them to remove it and reverse the colostomy. I was so disappointed but certainly, I have to cooperate with the doctors to make it easy for them and reduce the chances of things going wrong. On June 15 I was administered a strong dose of pride, which also has some side effects as per info on the net, I had

Hey guys, I don't want to put off anyone with this title of mine…….my guru is different, he is a guru yet not like the guru you would imagine, like the ones with either white or orange robes, long gray or near to gray tresses, beards and rudraksha malas around his neck, age on the other side of 50’s, with that very somber and religious look which is extremely patronizing at times………..and mostly just returned from a Kashi or Banaras or rather Himalayas. My guru is just not all of this………….. He does not wear robes in orange or white but wears jeans and tees sometimes shorts or tracks with a half-sleeved shirt, he wears his hair short and yes they are very black – also no beard black or white:), he never looks benign and patronizing in that sense, he is extremely hip and happening, he speaks wonderful English and is educated to design buildings and houses…..JJ school I think, any time we ask he might have just returned from a trip to Germany or US, he loves rock music a

Hi every one, Like they say life must go on, I had to accept the situation and live. Live not a morose and sad life but thank god for giving this life back to me and be a happy and evolved person. I set a target for myself self I had to get back to work, accept this physical condition and cope with it. I had all the support I needed, all my reiki friends and group were constantly supporting me, my reiki master Prasad Karmarkar Reiki was is and will be forever the strongest support of my life. He has taken me through all this so smoothly, I couldn't have done it without him and the entire reiki group. Oh, my dearest friend Abhijit…….he stood by me too. And can I ever forget the rock-like support from Kanchana my soul mate and RK my ex-husband? Every friend of mine Suma/Mangala/Narsimhan/Jaya/Vani/Aru all of them were there for me, while one would send me juice the other would send me food, someone sent me books to read, they all came by in turns and sat w

A diverse group of 21 enrolled themselves for a Reiki Learning Experience with Prasad Karmarkar Reiki  in Gurgaon, near Delhi. They had no idea what was in store for them. This group goes through a roller coaster ride traversing sharing sessions involving voicing problems and expectations. It takes courage to voice a concern about you in front of 20 people. That's probably the first step towards freedom.  Then there are meditations that make one reach out to the inner, real you that had probably so far, been an unrecognized voice. Of course, there is also the actual teaching of Reiki and student initiations. There are thousands of Reiki teachers all over the world. But learning Reiki from Prasad Karmarkar is special. There is a charged energy field around Prasad Karmarkar Reiki  that goes through you like a laser that knows exactly what the problem is and where it lies. He is an interior designer who cleans out the clutter from your inner world and somehow you l

Your work is filled with beautiful expression. What does beauty mean to you? Beauty means so much at every level. Beauty is care, it is love, it is effort. Beauty is meaning because only then can it touch someone. Your definition of beauty will always change. Because you are always changing. What would you say is your purpose? If I can create something that fills a person with an urge to realize something powerful within themselves, and that in turn becomes a catalyst towards positive action in their life, then I would say that I am living my purpose. How did you find your start? I started reading design blogs in April 2007 and was blown away. I completely resonated with what these bloggers were experiencing - but they were all abroad. Till then, writing and design had been my two separate passions. My friend suggested that I bring the two together. My first thought was that I didn’t know enough to write about design. But I had folders and folders of these pictur
