Your gift is to stop time and bring absolute stillness to the mind
— Albi

When I first met Tish I was the antithesis of what I am now. I was driven by ego, anxious all the time and totally lacked presence of mind. The inner stillness I feel now and experience every day is the most beautiful thing to ever happen to me in life so far and Tish has been instrumental to the path I am on now. My path is now devoid of ego, inner resistance with total presence of mind in enjoying each and every moment just the way it is. This can only be appreciated when one realises that the beauty in life is not in getting to the destination but rather the journey of whatever path that may be. Tish has been a catalyst in my life in realising this.

Tish is an incredibly rare and delicate being because she represents everything that I believe 99% of the world lacks. That is to say she quite simply is the single most present person i’ve met - she totally surrenders to the present moment. Where most people try to swim upstream against the current, Tish will let the stream take it wherever it wants to take her - for better or for worse.

Spending time with people who lack the things Tish has (the incessant need to be somewhere else other than the present moment is fairly common) and abnormally inflated egos can be incredibly exhausting. Time spent with Tish is just the opposite - peaceful, enjoyable and perhaps most importantly, totally still.

In this world, material gain and capitalism pollute and brainwash the mind to believe buying items is the gateway to happiness. Going outwards and spending money is the apparent solution to happiness. Teachers like Tish are a force working in the opposite (and right) direction. The capitalist system has enslaved most of the planet and rendered human beings utterly powerless but only provided we continue to play the game.

When one wakes up to the truth one realises his/her beauty and immense power – at one with nature and connected to every life form. The solution is to break down walls rather than build them in the name of ego. The simple truth is, the journey to happiness and inner peace is an inwards journey rather than an outwards one.

There is something about Tish that has always fascinated me.
Even when she proclaimed that she had difficulties with herself, I somehow still saw immense power in her presence.
Over the years, through her persistence towards deepening self-discovery, I have seen this power grow softer, more vulnerable, open and inclusive towards everything and everyone that appear in her journey.

She seems ever more fearless towards taking roads less traveled to fulfill her singular mission to live a life to continually discover, learn and embody her experience with integrity, authenticity and love.
Her continuing transformation as she grows within has been something truly inspiring for all who she is in touch with.

Today is 14th September 2018. On 15th April 2016 my journey started. A journey that led me to come closer to The source. To my soul. And to the amalgamation of souls.

Life has been the typical rat race that we have all successfully trained for right from birth. Excelling in school, Getting a degree. Starting a business was written for me. Finding a companion to marry and produce children. Growing the children. And pushing them again into the same trap I was in. Facing difficulties in business due to the duality involved. The error in determining what’s true from what’s “socially correct” and compromising my values in order to abide by the expectations of the society. And that went on and on.

I existed. But it was not whom I wished to be. The soul was almost blanked out. And I existed in order to appear socially correct as rich and powerful. As a person with connections. As a shrewd being. Not as a person loved but a person feared by others. And life moved on in that direction.

Tishya has always been connected to me. Probably connected beyond this life. Possibly connected beyond the life cycles. Connected as one sharing a single unity. We share one-ness. She reads my mind as I read her’s.

Tishya literally snatched me out. There is something more important than the life I’m living, she said. More important than the business I’m doing, or the money I’m earning.
Money in fact is the least important. Come with me. Do as I say. And I succumbed.

The retreat she took me to was a relief. I actually felt joy. I experienced calm and stillness.
I began to understand the complexities of emotion. I cried out..
I felt myself as source the love within all.
Love I’ve never known to exist and be shared so freely. I saw love within myself.
I began to love myself. I was happy.

Tishya didn’t stop her mentoring there. She took me to places and made me experience the spaces with their emotions and their stillness. Within and outside. Spaces that were on the countryside, open yards in important cities, Sea side beaches, City parks with ponds and Deep woods. She taught me to feel the essence of everything, everywhere.
Even back at home. Finally!

Today I’m sitting here on the same seat I sat on a few years ago. I’m remembering the past.
Once it was money I was seeking. Those around would be agitated and scheming.
Today what I feel is different.
Now its love and joy instead.
I look at everyone around me and we smile.

Thanks Tishya. I love you dear.

I have known Tish for many years and our journey began exploring energetic healing and working with kundalini flow many years ago which landed us being partners in life, although not in the most traditional way our culture depicts it as.

She has always been inclined to spirituality and has had a unique insight ever since she was a child. She was definitely never a normal person in the general mainstream conditioned perspective.

One unique thing about her was her ability to get things done no matter what the odds were against her. My first experience of this was when she was 18. I wanted to achieve a simple and arbitrary task such as fixing a broken lamp and it just wouldn’t work. Post me giving up she literally flipped her hand without even a look at it and it was fixed in 2 seconds. Over the years I noticed that this ability of hers applied to life regardless of the size or scale of the task at hand, sometimes really surprising me and making me
sit in awe at what just unfolded in front of my eyes.

There has been such a tremendous growth and shift in her personality over the years. I have seen her struggle with deep pain and dealing with conditioned beliefs and anxieties in the past, even sometimes as intense as thoughts of not wanting to live anymore. Looking at it now, in many ways this pain has helped push her deeper and deeper into awareness and her dedication to being truth and walking on a razor sharp tightrope of awareness. She has fearlessly rejected all social expectations and roles of her
as a daughter / wife / daughter in law / friend / Indian and left everything behind to seek
a deeper meaning in life.

She has spent the past 20 years spiritually seeking and evolving, which has allowed her to transcend her fears and pain to open up her life experience to something much bigger. Starting with being alone and in silence, to slowly finding different highly evolved teachers who have along the way helped her to go even deeper. Some parts of her journey have not been easy and the pain also gave her the drive to keep going.

To see Tish today versus 20 years ago would be to meet a completely different person in all aspects. One aspect of this evolution that I have directly experienced has been in relating and our personal growth together in this very tricky area of human relationships. Being with Tish has changed my perspective of how I see life and made me realise that I was living a limited existence. I was operating within a framework of fear at a deep level and seeking validation. Now it’s so much easier to navigate through life as I have more freedom to be myself naturally which has changed my life in many ways. Being in this fearless state has also allowed an endless scale of possibilities to experience life differently than how most of people do.

Tish has always had a very special way of being in this world, in the most innovative and non-conditioned way. She has an uncanny way of doing things without any preconditions and perceptions. She cannot hold a conversation if it is not true to herself and there is no room for any pretense. She will relate to people in the most authentic and fearless way even if she does not know the person. This skill has helped her really connect with people deeply, leading them to open up to her and exchange aspects about themselves that they may have never shared before. I have seen how just an honest conversation has changed their perspectives forever.

There is no fixed method with Tish and she works with what comes up in the moment. Having a strong intuitive sense mixed with a vast emotional intelligence has helped her see people, maybe sometimes better than they see themselves and this helps her guide them to reveal their own gaps in self perception in the most original way.
This combined with a knowledge of established scientific tools such hypnotherapy, NLP and Neuro plasticity helps her work in a life changing manner with people.
