Universe Knows – interview with Devi Mohan for Refresh Your Life magazine, 10 April 2020
SERVING THE UNITY
Devi Mohan’s life could easily serve as a plot for a movie. In her case, the curve of life really had its hands full: from the turbulent and warlike early 90s, through senior positions in major corporations, all the way to ashrams, yoga, spiritual diplomacy and awareness-raising. Devi, is there anything you would like to single out as the main lessons you learnt on this journey?
Thank you on that amazing question that already incorporates the essence of my answer: more than the experiences themselves, it is important to realize the deeper meaning of those experiences, as well as the perspective from which we observe the world around us. A ‘lesson’ is a powerful word. It implies that we have learned (or had the opportunity to learn) something from a given experience, and that we can consciously apply this new enlightening knowledge in our daily life.
I had several key, at times very painful life experience, which made me grow into the realization of a higher meaning of my existence. I am deeply grateful for these lessons. I am currently writing an autobiography, in which all these experiences and insights will be laid out in detail. I would like to briefly refer to two such experiences.
