00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Where did this vision of sharing come from? Where did it come from for you?

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Yeah, so on my 18th birthday, I actually shaved my head and became a monk.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:15,000
I lived in and out of India, half the year in India, the other half in ashrams or monasteries in the West.

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:21,000
And the whole aspect of becoming a monk and practicing meditation for hours every day,

5
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
that's the part most people know of. It's like, okay, you go and it's a very peaceful life.

6
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:32,000
But the other half is contribution, it's serving, it's everything from feeding people to sharing transformational knowledge

7
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
and teaching meditation to whatever the case might be.

8
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,000
And the whole basis of it is taking everything that you're learning from these ancient practices

9
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:55,000
and how to implement that practically and share it with other people so they themselves can improve their quality of life.
