OM SWAMI - THE JOURNEY FROM CORPORATE WALLS TO HIMALAYAS

 

An English news daily  in its  23rd December, 2014 edition brought  an interesting piece of article captioned " A Monk's take'.  It is a journey of a man from corporate walls to Himalayas in search of Happiness.

His   "About Me' page describes himself as  following :  


My achievement is not what I have,
My introduction is not what I do,
It is but who I am.
A nobody.

I sing I laugh I dance I clap,
A speck of dust in the infinite creation,
A vast ocean in the tiny dew drop,
A Himalayan stream,
The still mountain,

I am That.
So are you.
Compassion is my religion and love, my only philosophy.

It is palpable that when a person reaches to that level of wisdom, he doesn't  give much credence to his past life.   When it comes to his website https://omswami.org, it  has very interesting videos and other reading stuff.  His  memoir "If Truth be told'  gives a gripping account of his spiritual journey from corporate life to serene sanyasi life at Himalayas.
