Paying Forward An Awakin Circle

Tonight, Anarben and I shared some personal stories at Awakin Ahmedabad.  The circle has been anchored every week by service rock-stars, from Nimo to Neil to Kishan, and lovingly held by the one and only Meghna! :)  

Many moons ago, Meghna landed up at an Awakin Circle, while she was still a college student.  "As a typical starving artist, sometimes we'd have coffee to suppress our hunger. And then one Wednesday, we went to an Awakin Circle in Santa Clara.  After meditation, our minds felt quieter; after circle of sharing, our hearts felt more connected; and then Aunty fed all of us, unconditionally, and gratitude overflowed. I decided that when I grow up, I will pay-forward this love to others."  

For the last 8 years, she has consistently hosted these weekly circles in her home -- no matter what else is going on in other parts of her life.  A pretty amazing embodiment of paying-it-forward.

Recently, in Baroda, Meghna spoke about home-schooling her 6-year-old daughter -- for the first time!  She touched everyone with her sincerity and clarity.  And just a few days later, Trupti had promptly typed up the transcript! :)



On top of that, the event where Meghna spoke was hosted by two other Awakin Circle hosts in Baroda -- Rachana and Jignasha (below). Big hugs and gratitude to both of them as well!
