Editorial October "Acceptance in its Wholeness"



Sacred Sanctum in October features the powerful vibration of Acceptance.

Acceptance is that power through which one looks at the object/ person / situation as it is without any largeness or smallness.

Often in our lives, our conditioning has created so many labels and the more we attach to those labels, the more it builds in our minds about it, they way we should or the want somebody else wants it to be. This process creates an illusion of what “is” and therefore brings in all the feeling of separatedness, fear, breaking of expectations and then castles falling off because in the first place to begin with, we did not look at it the way it is.

When we love Living & look at a situation the way it is offered to us, we look at the minute details of it. If we have identified the Common Purpose and the reason it exists in our Life, we can surely accept it and the situation/ person/ object then becomes the stepping stone through which we learn about Living more consciously. 

The poem, the ‘Feeling’ that is God emphasizes the aspects of oneself, the unconsciousness that exists and the acknowledgment to grow and nurture to transform what we are meant to do in an environment with acceptance.

Body Awareness this month focuses on Acceptance of a body condition. Sometimes in Life, we think if we are doing things at a mind level perfect in accordance to the highest quality, we are happy. But our bodies show a different story. Stillness and happiness in the body depends on the quality of acceptance vibrations rather than quality products that we think are good and therefore pump in. A Bacteria growing in the body becomes the stepping stone in this situation to learn acceptance in the Health section.

Clear the ‘I’ helps the reader understand how the conditioning is built up upon responses received from the environment about ‘likes’ and ‘Dislikes’. We have grown up with what others feel good about us. When will we realize the true potential of who we are & what we are meant for to contribute?

Marriage sometimes is a huge turning point in our Life and could be a great internship phase too, where we learn some of the biggest realizations about acceptance. Two phases of Marriage – an Entry and a Sustenance is discussed through the learning of two individuals ; one through what seemed a happily married ever after story and another to create the happy ever after image, what we run after. Both being Illusions, it is with what we are given, we can choose to create more with informed choices.

The Flavour of acceptance strongly changes the environment. In Soul Parenting a Mother unveils her instincts to understand and flow with the needs of her child. To be a parent who is neutral and helps in the blossoming of the aspects of an independent child is rare. As parents we impose subtly or hard, what we lacked. But to allow the blossoming of an individual and to blossom with the child is a beautiful learning as parents. Children are higher beings. To know and understand them, is to know oneself. To help and nurture them, is to nurture yourself.

The flavour of acceptance changes the vibrations at home and the smallest things. It is not tangible but visible and surely felt. Sharing the story of change in her life, a mother shares the response of her son as he senses it.

Accepting one’s environment and oneself as it is and as we are, and then developing a common purpose to be more Useful in the given, is how Living becomes a celebration every moment.

"The spring will go, the fog will appear, and the green in the tree will not remain. But who can take away what 'Is'."
-Sri Raj Bhowmik

Soul Poem: The Feeling That Is God



Dearest, this feels like God,
Not the stone -statue I mean...
It’s the One who breezes through all
Our turbulence and
Creates flowerbeds out of wastelands
Indeed this feels like God.
In form the One hasn't come
In essence he is all over -
Omnicient,omnipresent ,compassionate 

Dearest, my wishes are numerous.
I feel guilty and mean when I ask
My alms are not worth the attention of the world
Yet I ask
from wishing for parties to seeking for harmony
I ask
Sometimes in fear,
Sometimes in shame,
Sometimes I demand and dare
From the one who feels like God
Purify me,
Purge me and
Give me a rebirth

Dearest All ,this absolutely feels like god
He comes,
Right to where I have thrown all my garbage.
Purges and purifies...
Totally sanctifies.
Every passing day, I wake with love
I sleep in peace, I sing, dance and celebrate

Dearest, magnanimous one.
In this vast endless land,
There are sights beyond my seeing,
There are paths beyond my little steps,
There are truths beyond what I comprehend,
In ignorance I do not know ,
In awareness you are the only presence
The only way is to ask for a  space to walk
By you ,with you, for you, give the way you do
Just in humble gratitude.

Acceptance and Transformation


" Acceptance of oneself " is being at peace with oneself --- being in harmony with the environment --- that is where the ripple starts. Once the ripple starts it is an effortless on going process. The flow in life begins. The scene keeps changing but the flow continues, since there is no dependency on  anything exterior to sustain it. The force that starts the ripple has to come from within. And that force can be created only when we accept, love and respect ourselves. Once that is in place all conflict with the environment ceases. Acceptance of your own self and others begins and life becomes joyful..
This awareness is something I have experienced personally and feel so gratetful to the 'Soulbath Peace Foundation'. In eight months of a few consultations with my Life Coach and then the SAHHEAL HEALING CONSULTATION workshop, my life has changed completely. An awareness and understanding has developed in so many different areas in my life.
Our son who lives in Mumbai comes to live with us whenever he visits Bangalore. On earlier  visits he would enter the house, we would exchange greetings, and spend prime time as a family. On his last visit he entered our home, and asked if we had made any changes in the lights, furniture arrangements etc. with the remark "It looks so different." Next morning he asked if we had changed the bed or  mattress, with the remark "It was so comfortable" Nothing had changed in our living room or the bed but he felt the difference. This difference was the change in our environment, our body language, our communication and the SAHHEAL fragrance. Thankyou SAHHEAL!

Brand "I"



Clear the “I”

A Gratitude to My Master whom I consider at the highest Respect in My life.

Being Associated with Our Founder Sri Raj Bhowmik should be experienced and cannot be explained.
I thank our founder to have given me this opportunity to write this article on one of the Learning’s that he provided.

As a child we are pure in nature and live life free of any diverted thoughts. We behave like the Divine flows through us. We host the divine Qualities .Our very glance makes every one pull a smile on their faces .Our Presence makes a difference in the environment. We are a delight even to the strangers. We are so unconditional in our being. We are flowers by ourselves sprinkling the fragrance all over.

 As we grow up in life we start with the thought that I like to do this and start getting used to what we like .We start taking up thoughts like I like to eat this and I like to do that.
We start working towards our likes and dislikes .We start achieving what we wish to achieve in life. We get appreciated and get known for our achievements and capabilities. We get jobs based on our achievements and then we realize Like I am capable of this . and I can achieve this .The I starts building its Brand day by day . The I today after a long journey builds a lot of qualities like. I am This .I am not That . I Love This . I Hate That.I Understand a lot of things .I can make a difference. I don’t like that. I feel secured. I feel unsecured. I don’t care. I do care .I don’t fear, I fear and I get scared and many more.

This I has built a heavy brand and is marketing it self with in itself and outside itself. The I has also taken responsibility to take itself forward. The I also takes care of itself when it is stressed by praying to the god and by doing meditation. The I also plans treatments to the body it holds and plans exercises to keep the body fit. The I grows Stronger and Stronger day by day to the extent where it takes responsibility of itself for all its deeds and results. It also whole heartedly prays to god and does good deeds. The I does become everything in life.

But Where is that being once hosted by divine quality, where is that being which brought a smile on everyone’s face with just one single glance. Where is that flower with fragrance .The I blocks everything to do with divine. The I also blocks the Truth & Essence of Meditation. It blocks every true fragrance of the flower we are. It blocks the true connect to the Soul and the divine. It blocks the divine flow through us.

Divine Loves us so much that it keeps trying to flow through us again and again. The I keeps blocking us in different ways. This I which did not exist when we were born and which will not exist after we perish keeps blocking the divine.

Clear the “I” and the divine will flow in abundance in our lives because divine loves us and that is why we exist here today. DIVINE is abundant and it Flows abundantly and gives abundance.

With all the respect bowing down to My Master Sri Raj Bhowmik to take his blessing and paying gratitude to have got this article completed.

Soul Relationships: Marriage Of a Mad World



All of us, all through most of our lifetime only run. Run from one event in life to another. Run from one incidence into something ahead that we believe is more fulfilling. Run from one stage of our life to the next, believing blindly that in the course of time it will give us what we expect. Sometimes, we do not even know what it is that we expect from the change we are trying to get into. The point is to run. “Everyone else is and If I do not, I may be ridiculed. So let’s RUN!”. Most of us, unfortunately end up living a running life. The blessed ones however get a reminder to stop or are even held on by the masters putting an obstruction on our running field. It might take us a while to realize that the obstruction is only a hurdle to jump on to the higher level. Some of us might waste a lot of time in realizing how helpful the hurdle is. A few of us are helped again by some angels at such a  stage.Taking me as an instance: Raj Bhowmik and Soulbath Peace Foundation came into my life at such a hurdle stage.



I was running in circles trying to get into the flow of the material life. A great job, a huge circle of friends, busy weekends, parties, shopping. Everything that could distract me from giving myself time to think about what I was meant to do in life. All set to get married too. At this juncture I was gifted sessions at SAHHEAL by a dear friend who thought it would ‘ready’ me with the big change awaiting ahead. The most thoughtful and the best wedding gift I could have wished for. Little had I thought then about what I would face in the coming days. SAHHEAL not only equipped me mentally for being able to share my life peacefully with my partner but also on how I could get on to a better place as a person- individually. My old hobbies began to manifest themselves into my life. My little interests came back reminding me of my quieter side. I could suddenly feel my breath and feel my life with it. All this- in the middle of the wedding preparation and chaos. I was walked into the pedestal of marriage with such positivity.All thanks to SPF and SAHHEAL! My wedding was the most beautiful one.



Nothing went wrong for it to be anything less than my dream wedding. Dream wedding-yes, Dream marriage- ??? Well, I had never imagined a dream marriage. My aspiration and run had only been made till the wedding. I was lost after this ‘event’ was over. There I was in my new home, with a partner who was not completely ready to be married. Had gotten himself into situations none could help him with. I was not made to run away. I was not made to hide. The seeds of SPF and Raj’s teachings were already in me. All I did was surrendered myself and my life completely to Raj. Went on to do my Soulbath Peace Foundation consultant course and decided that I was going to be a happier person leading a fulfilling life no matter what came up.



I have been hand held since that day , for me to be able to smile today and write this little article. A life that I want will manifest if I wish for it earnestly and do what I can to the best.  Raj and his divine presence in my life has made an ocean of a difference. I would have been a different person today if not. I write to Raj regularly, seek his blessings and take every step with a positive outlook.I am yet to manifest the marriage of my dreams but I know whatever comes my way will be enveloped with a blessing which will make life happier.



Thank you to my benefactor. I owe it all to you!


Thank you to Soulbath Peace Foundation , my dear friend and constant mentor for being the wind beneath my wings

Rediscovering Love



Here I was lying on the hospital bed and watching my husband take care of me. I could see the concern on his face. His actions and the way he took care of me spoke about his love for me. I always thought that my husband detested me, would be very happy and relieved if I am no more as he is not very expressive. He was always angry and frustrated and never approved most of the things about me. He picked faults with me for everything and had denied me of motherhood for the last eight years.

Today I could see the fright of losing me on his face. He spoke less but actions proved that he really loved me and cared for me. This was the turning point in my life.
I was hospitalized because my blood pressure had shot up to 180/100. I was diagnosed with a hemorrhage in the brain. This was because my parents had come to know about my other relationship. I was ashamed to face anybody.

It was time to think if I was right in continuing my relationship with another man who was married and had a child and could not promise me any future. I felt I was deceiving too many people. I wanted to end this relationship. This was not easy as I loved the other person too. He healed a huge part of my relationship my husband. It was time I made up my mind. I could not sail in two boats at the same time.

I tried talking to the other person but he would not let go. I was feeling terrible that I was hiding something from my husband. I had to confess to him and come upfront about my other relationship. I wanted to start afresh and did not want to have any thing hidden from him.
When I confessed to him, I did not expect him to forgive me or accept me but on the contrary he was so protective about me, forgave me and accepted me back. I couldn’t have asked for more of an acceptance from him. He turned out to be more magnanimous and noble. He had every right to be angry, to cut me out of his life but he accepted me back. This made feel that I had got back that entire love he had not expressed in so many years. Now it didn’t matter if he failed to express his love for me. I could feel his love for me and accepted to go the family way and is supporting me in every way.

When I started my sessions at SAHHEAL, I came to learn that that this other person had come as my teacher who opened up my husband’s love for me. I also learnt to forgive myself and my husband and the other man. Through Sri Raj Bhowmik's Teachings, I also learnt about the fact that we are different individuals. I realized about my husband's love and care and acceptance towards me.

Awareness through the Body: Understanding & Listening to the Body


How my illness transformed my life.

One fine day I was found to have Tuberculosis. My ground slipped away. It was a big blow as I was only 35, ate only organic and unrefined food, had already completed my counselor's course in SPF. Everything according to me was perfect. 

It took almost a week for me to accept the illness and  was willing to take charge. First I understood that my body is asking me to slowdown. Once I decided to slow down, it sank in me physically and mentally. I let go off many things.

One month went off without major incidents except for sudden depression or occasional self pity. One fine day my fatigue led to self pity and this led to a fight. I was asked to leave the house in the middle of the night. when I stood outside my locked door something suddenly changed. I saw myself in square one. How much ever I tried to change, a  small part of me is refusing to change. I know only a troubled life. I am so used to that life.

 I told myself that everything is going to be fine only when I wanted to change my current life. Immediately I dropped all my past memories. I was born new. I went to the terrace and started admiring the stars. In 5 minutes, my husband came looking for me. He looked agitated and tensed armed with his cellphone and car keys. He was equipped to handle emergency situation. But I was totally calm. My calmness conquered him too.

Its more than a month from that incident. My current life is the opposite of my old life...

With respect to my Husband (same husband), He now address me with all cute words, we have very small conversations but communicate a lot, he now also shares his dreams with me.

With respect to my children (11yr old girl and 8yr old boy), they have become more responsible and independent. One day when I was too tired they both made dinner for me. They fight less among themselves.

2 months back, I never thought my life will transform for good. I can only thank Tuberculosis.

Soul Parenting: A Bond Reinforced


I had always considered myself as a parent who brought up her kids in a very educated & healthy way, where I the MOM played a very crucial role in taking day to day decisions about my children’s life. I never gave it a second thought, that there could be any other way to bring up children, apart from the Mom’s way! I had educated myself fully & properly, attended most up-market parenting classes, eminent parenting workshops, reading the latest in parenting books, being a member of quite a few online parenting communities, and, with my accumulated “knowledge” about parenting skills  , I had formed a “MY WAY”, of bringing up the kids ! This MY Way was about working in accordance with a “mother’s instinct” & being very proud that most of the times I was correct. No one was allowed to take any decision regarding any part of “My” Kid’s life as I couldn’t comprehend that there could be any other method to shape a child’s character & future than my self devised one!. I advised the same to the Mommy Friends around me & we the “Mom’s brigade” were very vainly & proudly, treading upon the self-glorified path to become an “Independent” & “In control “mom!

However, somewhere things were just not going “my way”...There were regular temper tantrums, disagreements, negotiations, sulking, blame game etc. at home, which I couldn’t handle. No amount of “accumulated “knowledge worked. Small squabbling resulting into heated arguments, banging of doors as a show of protest, uncontrollable crying & not letting go of any issue. I was alarmed at that & started seeking an answer once again, as, somewhere deep inside I knew its time for things to change...

I thus, entered a calm & nurturing space with my 6 year old at Raj Bhowmik Schools and my entire pursuit to be the “I- know- it- all “MOM was ripped apart gently and kindly towards being a “Receptive & ready- to-change Mom” ! .

It started with my unaware instructions to my child that Raj Bhowmik Schools is the best place to be (“Because I chose it for you, so “!) & that he has to be at his best behavior too. ! No choice was given to him.

It went fine for the first few days; however, a big meltdown happened one fine day!  My son refused to cooperate & follow instructions & sat sulking & barking in one corner of the class. he refused to be a part of the class . That had it! All my confidence, faith & believes about me being able to “Manage” everything flawlessly, when it comes to my kids, just underwent a major setback!

I was clueless & didn’t know how to turn the situation in the classes favour. At that point, it was Raj Bhowmik School’s philosophy & patient understanding of the situation bailed us out of the unpleasantness of the tantrum ...However, more had to be worked upon from my side now , consistently and from a compassionate and deep space...at home.

I took guidance from the Raj Bhowmik Schools and started working on my child’s behavior & on his routine. Work had to be done over the entire week & feedback to be given to Raj Bhowmik Schools, on Friday, the day before the next class. The work included some simple & regular exercises, like:

·       Setting aside a quite time with the child to talk & discuss about the learning at RB schools.

·       To ask him kindly whether this school was forced on him or not?

·       To give him a choice of leaving or attending the school.

·       To plan the next class excitedly along with him & from a very aligned self.

·       To go to bed latest by 9.30p.m. On nights before the school. No late nights or exciting parties, trips etc. on nights before the class. This would let him be in a calm space even the following day.

·       The mornings, when we had to leave to Raj Bhowmik Schools, have to start early with some light exercise routine or Surya Namaskar, to be done along with Priyangshu. (He is my teacher in Surya Namaskar)

·       Followed by a Carbohydrate rich breakfast like; Paratha/ Dosa, Eggs/ Toast/ Fruits and Milk. That would sustain the child till the activity class ended & kept him alert & attentive too. No Chocos or Corn flakes, as they tend to be light & the child feels hungry & low on energy very soon.

·       The child could help in the preparation of the breakfast too.

All this worked wonderfully & my son & I changed by leaps & bounds over the week. Meal times became bonding times & I realized that Priyangshu was full of energy for positive things when on full stomach. He talks about his learning about relationships, nature, art, movie making to his sister & nature walks, nature talks have become an intrinsic part of his daily routine.

What has been my learning? I have learned that:

· There are times when we the super efficient Moms just have to step back & observe.

· These are the times when fathers have to be given a chance to bond with the child too, in their own special way.

· Meal times are special family bonding times ,

· Learning is fun when done together.

· Choices are important & we as parents should ensure a constant enriching environment to help a child make conscious choices in their day to day lives.

· Last but not the least, I have learned that all children are made of the same clay but not baked in the same oven...I have thankfully found that space for my child to come out fully transformed & properly baked...

 At Raj Bhowmik Schools I have realized that children are our second chance to have a great parent-child relationship !

Editorial Sep 2011: Be the Heart that gives...


It is a misconception that one needs money to give something. All we need is a big heart that is willing to share a sacred space with anyone who comes along our way. , when Giving in any form becomes a way of living, one is left with nothing short of wonder & amazement at the feeling of expansion & abundance felt deep within. The flow of life then happens naturally, gracefully & effortlessly...



 Giving / sharing time, space & money, brings along connectivity, a movement, in its most natural manner. There is abundance all around us & by being compassionate in our own space, helps us focus on the abundance within too. As the focus of this act of giving, shifts from  feeling joy to feeling love, the wheel moves & transformation happens in ones life!



The hand that gives  is always higher than the hand which receives...Be open, be compassionate , be the heart that gives. Had nature not been so kind & compassionate in giving , then we would have perished so long ago. Every birth in this Universe is a manifestation of a giving act. It is the act of Compassion which makes a human a human...!



There is immense love, faith & compassion attached with giving in any form , so much so, that  a mere act then becomes a throbbing & living experience .



A compassionate heart is love in its highest form.....!

In the section of the Cover Story, The Power of Love,  we present the understanding & realization of Love that is beyond possession. It is the story of an individual who has been in the Marriage for about 5 decades & rediscovered a new meaning of love thus rising in Love & contributing fully to the relationship.


In Personal Transformations, we bring to you a fuller aspect of Spirituality from Maa Narmadha who is the caregiver of Ramana Vidya Peetham, Thiruchuli . The fullness of a Master is in the Essence of the Master rather than carrying forward Rituals. True spirituality is to take that Essence Back To Society.

Features section is a story of a Magnanimous Birth of a Child as part of the exclusive SAHHEAL Baby Birthing Solutions inspired by Our Founder.  The journey helps one realise the Leap Of Faith that one makes, when the reference points shifts and Balance Happens. Birth is the outcome of one of the bigger balances of Life and here is a story from a MOM who discovers this Balance through her Pregnancy Phase all about herself.

Soul Parenting is another experience of Letting Go. Often when we raise children and when it is time that they are independent, we some how bind to a belief that they need help. The experience helps us understand that when we hold on to rigid values as parents, children in the families grow to mirror those beliefs in themselves creating a generation that makes compromises. The New Age Children however allow the growth to happen in them and around them.

CORPORitual Compassion is a special Section that introduces the true meaning of Compassion in our Lives - Its Needs, its Growth & the energy encompassing others around for growth.


In the Body Section, we present another experience from a doctor who is on the path of Compassion and leads us to the first step through Forgiveness. Guided by CORPORitual's Forgive & Bury The Past, this gives a deeper insight into the essentials of Forgiveness for our body.  

The Flight Of the Golden Eagle is a true story of a couple who have been in a relationship for 50 years finding the true meaning of Love & Freedom through Compassion & Companionship.

roses are not human beings.

Otherwise they would have refused to bloom,

If not offered a price tag."

Features: Experiencing one of the most defining and miraculous event in my life



I had been married for eight years, had been working for more than twelve years and apparently was leading a very comfortable life and it would not be wrong to say that I was very satisfied with what I had achieved so far in my life ……..at least that is what I believed or wanted everyone who knew me to believe. 


But in realty I was being an escapist, a scared person, who could not come in terms with the fact that there was something amiss in the way I was leading my life. The clock seemed to tick away readily and I was constantly evading the possibility of answering the most important question …………..when should I start my family………….HAVE A BABY? I had no answer to this question, however a distinct hollowness persisted and I wanted to run away when anyone asked me about my family plans… I had no plans whatsoever. I thought once I have saved enough, worked enough, settled enough I shall have a child, but that had not happened for me for the last 8 years.


While all this turmoil continued I was introduced to Soulbath Peace Foundation (SPF) by my sister. SPF had had a massive influence on her life and she wanted me to benefit from the same as well. Initially I was full of apprehension and frankly speaking was not very convinced about why I should consult anyone to help me with my life’s personal decision. It took me a little time to get used to the fact that SPF is the right place I need to be if I have to find answers to my questions related to pregnancy. The things that unfolded once I connected with SPF were no less than a miracle. 


Even after 4 months of being pregnant, I was still not able to come in terms with it and was going through a tough time accepting the changes that were happening to me. I had recently changed jobs and was worried about the reaction of my employees to this news of me being pregnant. I also felt that my husband was not able to understand the changes that I was going through and every passing day made my pregnancy difficult. To add to this my early ultrasound revealed that my placenta was lying low and I was advised rest. This was not a possibility as I had just started my new job and was not ready to talk about my pregnancy to my boss. I was going through a tough time. All this chaos helped me to decide to connect with SPF and seek help. 


As I stay in Gurgaon, our initial interactions with SAHHEAL were telephonic. Each of these sessions instilled a lot of confidence and strength in me. For the first time, I realized that there is another soul/ being inside me, which is being nurtured by me. The realization was a massive eye opener. Though pregnant for over 3 months, I had somehow never realized in total what it meant to be pregnant. These initial telephonic sessions helped me realize for the first time what it was to be pregnant. The immense feeling of compassion that I developed towards my child seems to have a very positive effect on me and the overall pregnancy. I was overcome with a sincere desire to give my best to my child, no matter how.


My initial apprehensions were therefore gradually starting to disappear. I now had to travel to Bangalore for my sessions at SAHHEAL. However, my gynecologist having conducted another ultrasound STRICTLY advised me against travel. I was scared, did not know, whether to trust my decision to visit SAHHEAL or to listen to my doctor and quit the entire plan. 


It was a tough call with everyone advising against the travel. I was starting to doubt my decision to travel to Bangalore as I once again felt scared and did not want to take any risk with my pregnancy. But I don’t know from where, just a day before the actual travel I somehow got the confidence to finally travel to Bangalore. My husband and I decided to give in completely to what SAHHEAL stood for and with that trust we traveled to Bangalore.

The sessions that followed were a miracle, I felt so happy, so relieved, so contented as both my husband and I participated in the various sessions. For the first time I experienced such distinctive warmth in my womb……..an experience very difficult to explain. I was feeling very happy about being a part of these sessions. It was helping me understand and at the same time experience one of the most defining and challenging events in my life – having a baby. This realization has had a massive impact on me and my entire approach towards pregnancy changed. I felt more related to my child in the womb and once this happened all seemed so simple, so logical. I could finally face my real self and feel so immensely proud about being pregnant. It was a wonderful feeling and slowly it started showing its effect. Suddenly I felt there was a massive force supporting me and helping me bring my child in this world. This guiding force, instilled a lot of confidence in me for the safe birthing of my child and has helped me develop a strong belief system that continuously reassures me about the well being of my child. This is such an awesome feeling when you know there is someone blessing and protecting my little one for lifetime. I am indebted to Soulbath Peace Foundation and to Shri Raj Bhowmik for making my journey all through my pregnancy so peaceful and easy and finally the birth of my daughter – Ahana a blessed soul.  

My association with SPF has had a profound effect on me in terms of how my entire philosophy of trying to control things unnaturally changed for good. It helped me see and accept the beauty that lies right in front of us but something which we often ignore and thus miss out on life’s absolute wonders. 


What followed after the sessions was even more wondrous a fantastic baby shower, which upon SPF’s advice we celebrated at a local girl child orphanage. The offerings we made at the orphanage were nothing compared to the peace and happiness that both my husband and I gained from the entire experience. Thank you SPF for guiding me into such happiness. Further, my subsequent ultrasound revealed that my placenta which was low lying had moved back to its usual position and everything was fine. I felt so contented, so happy, so very peaceful and so relaxed, which had a profound effect on my baby also. I had started to experience the magic of SPF and its founder Shri Raj Bhowmik. 


Every passing day prepared me further for the birth of my child and brought me closer to my child in the womb.  This feeling of compassion, of unconditional love that I developed after I connected with SPF and SAHHEAL has had an effect on my child as ultrasound reports revealed that my child in the womb seemed very blissful and displayed very calm movements unlike in many cases where the child as it grows gets very restless and stressed and depicts aggressive movements. My child was so calm and peaceful and was so connected to me that I have known this child for ages now and her behavior is ever so predictable to me. 


This has been an awesome experience in my life and I feel so ever indebted to SoulBath Peace Foundation, SAHHEAL and its founder Shri Raj Bhowmik for helping us bring Ahana into our lives and making it meaningful. Thank you for blessing our family.

Love, caring and compassion is what life is all about.

Cover Story: The Power Of Love



Love is such a beautiful emotion but very few experience it in its beauteous form. Most of us go through life understanding it in its teenage expression. We use the word without attaching any meaning to it and for this reason most relationships have gone hollow and self centered.

If love is such a beautiful emotion it should always go hand in hand with happiness. This is not what we see around us.  So understanding the word “ love “ is the first step towards being at peace within and in turn spreading peace around. Till we love, respect and accept ourselves we cannot expect to experience completeness. And if we are not complete within we cannot give anything of substance to others.

Life offers us so many choices. Most of us are not adequately equipped with the ability to make the right choices so we stumble along and end up having to cope with what we have created for ourselves. There are some fortunate ones who realize that things are not quite right and resort to a healing path. I consider myself to be one of those “lucky ones” who has found the Soul Bath Peace Foundation. At 64 years I am allowing myself to be worthy of that love and self acceptance by----

2.Finding my purpose in life.

3. Practicing compassion.

4 Forgiving and burying the past.

I know my healing has begun because I sense happiness and love within so I am looking at my environment with “loving glasses”. Now I can start sharing with others what is mine. Now I recognize that all these years “love” for me was need based so I depended on others for my happiness and ended up in total frustration. Now I can create my own happiness and it gives me a tremendous sense of freedom.

I end with Gratitude to Raj for helping me discover Love.

CORPORitual Compassion: No Tags for Compassion

        
Man is a being. An organic being. Whether we realize it or not,like  it or not doesn't  matter. As a being we are endowed with certain qualities, precious resources as peace,wisdom,silence,joy,clarity,giving,forgiving .....whether we know  it or not doesn't matter. Every time in our life, in whatever situation ,we are accessing these resources to realize our destination or resolve situations, or come out of conflicts.It is when the chaotic  blockage in accessing these treasures get dense ,that we call for the master.He  appears with his master key and opens the door ;wakes us  up   from a sleeping -pill slumber to connect us to higher sources.These resources come from the space of compassion. What is innate in us as a being is Compassion. It  comes straight from our heart and soul .In whatever we say, do and see, we can make our whole life a compassionate act of living. But the highest potential of compassion is realized in the "act of giving" says Sri Raj Bhowmik in His life transforming book-The CORPORitual.


  When it comes to the deed of giving, we are all caught in a fix. We have been conditioned to have this fix. This conditioning has created barriers , airs and attitudes around us, within us. Just as flowering is with flowers and flying is with birds ,giving should ,as it is be with humans. Nothing on earth can match the quality of "The act of giving' when it is expressed from the space of compassion. It is in this space that we realize our power to see the world as one whole entity stripped of walls and blockages, as every mans pain as one pain and every mans need as one need. Giving from this most noblest space within us doesn't carry the stink of dilemma,it doesn't have conflict of interests, it doesn't have complexes, it doesn't have superstitions, it doesn't have fear, doubt and all of that.
In fact there is nothing to own to fear losing. We give from the whole and take from the same source. The giver and the receiver is an illusion. So all we need to do is just have the humility to give and the humility to receive with gratitude and thanks.

The writer in her environment is working with her master to realize the ultimate purpose of her life through compassion. Most of the insights contained in it is in the space of awareness, her Life Mentor Sri Raj Bhowmik has put her through.

The Magnificent Retriever




August 15, India was celebrating her Independence. August 15, was the birthday of many Masters. It was a special day for me as it was the birthday of the creator in me. The day I realized with awareness that I too have the power to create and realize the purpose of my existence. More special because many creators graduated as SAHHEAL Healing Consultants. Yes with the birth of the aware me my heart reached out to thank  Sri Raj Bhowmik. He is our retriever, who has helped me get my Self back.

The whole flow started with a spark of a small incident that happened as we reached home that evening after the graduation. The tranquil space of awareness in the SAHHEAL Healing Consultant classroom was the ultimate space to be in. A moment to hold on to, a process so priceless for the soul. What would otherwise be very ordinary took me into a gamma phase – the dear ones sitting in front of the television.

All of a sudden I realized that my serenity and awareness was all lost in the abyss of the mind, eclipsed totally by my reactive, unconscious behavior. Turning of the T.V., feeling helpless with myself, sat quietly to witness the happenings in me. For the first time I was aware that my environment was mirroring my emotions and my baggage.

We packed to leave. Our family drove us to the railway station. They had also just returned from a trip to the Mudumalai Jungles. They told us that they had captured so many pictures, so many beautiful moments but as they were closing the camera something happened that all the pictures were lost. They felt sad. As the pictures, so too was I lost…

Suddenly a voice was heard saying, “don’t worry uncle, it can be retrieved. That was the magical word that created the ripple effect. There was waves and waves of happiness in me as in everyone there.

Yes I could understand and realize that we are not lost forever. We think so, feel so, but here is The Retriever, the compassionate one – Raj who has just retrieved and restored us to our own Self.

How many lives, how many problems, how much of pain, how much of suffering, how much of fear to do, how much of superstitious beliefs, how much of frustrations have shadowed the pure essence. How much we have panted to get out of it all, how we long for freedom…..

And then blows the gentle breeze from the heart of the compassionate one, who is indeed our  Retriever filling me, us with hope and light…

Showing me and you our own radiant self

Where happiness and joy reside ever

Where love and compassion is in abundance

Where peace and tranquility spread their fragrance like the divine flower

Where abundance and prosperity flow like a river

Where hope shines and

‘IT” Assures

I ask in awareness

What was I crying for?

What are you crying for?

The Retriever is here

Reclaim your life, breath and start living.

Raj you are there for me, for everyone

Thankyou.

The Flight Of the Eagle: A Story Of Freedom, Hope & Learning

The word “FREEDOM” invokes visions of an eagle soaring high in the blue skies, or an
innocent child playing and laughing with gay abandon. We are all born free from fear, envy,
jealousy, hatred, unhappiness and numerous other negative elements. Yet over the years, most of us become burdened by so many of these negatives. My wife of over four decades and I also, along the way slipped into this quagmire. 
From being a very happy and bonded couple, gradually we began drifting apart. This was an alien feeling, which in spite of its manifestation created uneasiness between us. We were truly lost. We had everything going for us – financial independence, reasonably good health considering our respective ages, lovely sons, a loving daughter-in-law and two lovely grandsons. And we wondered why we were still not complete.

We tried many home remedies and quick fix solutions. Nothing worked. We were still firmly and hopelessly shackled. And then the silver lining and the light at the end of this tunnel appeared.

We learnt about the Soulbath Peace Foundation from mutual friends.

The very first session with our friend, consultant and Life coach in SAHHEAL HEALING

CENTRE raised hope of revival of happiness in our lives. My wife and I after a few further
sessions have settled back into completeness, happiness and contentment together. We are living each day happily and looking forward to the coming tomorrow with eagerness. For this, we are very thankful to Raj Bhowmik and the Soulbath Peace Foundation .We take great joy and
satisfaction in recommending to our family and friends the great benefits of the programs

conducted by Soulbath Peace Foundation. We are personally looking forward to getting ourselves involved with Raj Bhowmik Back-To-Society DREAM (RB-BTS DREAM) actively to achieve greater fulfillment and happiness. After many years, we are enjoying FREEDOM again.

With Peace.
