Einstein has said so beautifully, there are two ways to live your life – one is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is a miracle… for me the second stands true… every second is an absolute miracle… My life has been a series of thousands of tiny miracles, every moment… I feel it so well around me every moment, which only reinforces by faith and belief in my Almighty…

and on this day, I dedicate my gratitude to this very Almighty to have given me this gift of life…

My protectors, my guiding force, my mentors, my strength… my source of life & blessings… my beloved Ganpati Bappa, My kuldevta Shree Ekvira Aai, My Mentor and guiding light in Shree Saibaba & Akkalkot Swami, My protectors in Shree Shankar bhagwan, Hanumanji, Shree Vishnu Bhagwan, Shree Krishna, Gajanan Maharaj, Vaishnodevi, to my Mother Mary and Jesus Christ, to my Allah and my Gurus across all the world…. And all of them in different forms and names as one Integrated Strength & force for me!!

to continually give me this wonderful gift of life and miracles to live a fulfilling life, guiding me through the dilemmas of life… And only strengthening the faith in the energy and aura that surrounds and takes care me and my family.

As I sit today morning, reflecting on these 50 years, I prepare myself for the upcoming beautiful life ahead… to continue to engage with life with a sense of purpose with my foundational values to make the difference every moment, with gratitude to the Almighty and every moment of life.

My almighty has been with me as in the story of “Footprints”. Walking alongside me in my beautiful moments, and carrying me in their arms through my challenging phases and helping me overcome every problem with a smile… making every problem look so miniscule in larger mission of life with all the positivity and hope!

In gratitude to all of them to provide their supernatural force to me, for all the miracles, for this wonderful gift of life…

For such an amazing heart and soul in my daughter, Ishita and for such wonderful parents in Aai and Baba…

And my whole family, extended family, all my friends who are so special to me, colleagues & associations gathered over years, leaders who have guided –

All of you are those miracles in my life and are the Almighty’s way of showing his presence in my life through all of you, each one of you are a blessing to me and my family. In gratitude to all of you for showering your blessings on us through the years and standing by me and my family with your wonderful wishes!!!

As I celebrate this day, rejoice the gift of Life … I continue to express my appreciation for all of you ho have really made such a wonderful impact on me and all of you who are just a call away… I cannot stop writing here with today’s milestone, the journey continues, as this wonderful life !


I sincerely appreciate the loads of phone calls, messages and postings to wish me and while I take time to reply to each one of you personally, I take this opportunity to thank all of you for the wonderful wishes and walking this journey to this day and forward with me! In gratitude always !!!

Mind First: Because All Well-Being Starts Upstairs!

Image
By Anupama Vaidya  Sitting right across the serene Mediterranean Sea, sipping my hot coffee, seeing the sunrise, I find myself savoring not just the view but the much needed pause – the mental break. In midst of the life’s endless demands, moments like these remind us of the immense value of mental well-being. It’s in these quiet pauses - where we recharge, reflect, and simply breathe - that we truly understand how vital it is to care for our minds. Just like this tranquil sea stretching out before me, a calm mind forms the foundation for everything else. Without it, even the most beautiful experiences in life can feel incomplete. This initial week of my trip is especially significant, as I’ve been grappling with the loss of four friends over the past 6 months – each from different walks of life, reminding me of life’s fragility. While I have fought my share of mental battles, this time the weight of these recent losses has made me acutely aware of how vulnerable we all are. Two of...

By Anupama Vaidya.    2024 passed in the blink of an eye, almost at lightning speed, serving as a poignant reminder to me that when we infuse each moment with life, ‘Life’ in turn, offers us treasures to cherish - moments to learn from, grow in and nourish our souls!   This year has been a journey of both strength and vulnerability, challenging me to push my boundaries and create a bridge to the years ahead. A year of Blessings: Seeing my daughter Ishita complete her Masters in Law and the Solicitor’s Qualifying Examination, and embark on her corporate journey as a Trainee Solicitor with Linklaters in London, has been a joy and profound sense of realization of how much she has grown. As a parent, witnessing her confidently step into adulthood is both humbling and nostalgic. Time has a way of reminding us how fleeting it is, and yet, the fruits of love, guidance, and support ripen in the most beautiful ways. A year of Awakening:   The loss of friends this year op...

Leadership Alchemy No. 1 – Discipleship: The Bedrock of Leadership

The Transformative Power of Guru-Shishya Relationships in Leadership.    By Anupama Vaidya.    Every year, as I turn the pages of my almanac, certain days instantly resonate with me. Guru Pournima is one such day that fills me with a deep sense of anticipation,   illuminating the path of gratitude and reverence. This day holds a special place in my heart, a warmth that grows brighter with each passing year. The role of the “Guru” is deeply embedded in my life. Without the direction and wisdom of my mentors, I would have felt adrift. Whether grappling with my countless dilemmas, or steering through life-changing events, standing at cross-roads, or facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles my vulnerabilities so apparent, I could not have journeyed through life without my Mentors, my Gurus. I find solace and direction through my mentors. Their guidance & influence continue to help me rediscover myself, and navigate both the stormy and serene phases of my li...
