Tryst with the Self
Tryst with the Self
The 2019 edition of the Life Positive Foundation’s annual International Spiritual Festival in Coimbatore is being hosted in August. From soul-searching workshops to fun activities, Annesha Banerjee shares all that you can expect at this two-day event
The scorching heat tires the body, mind, and soul, which can only be rejuvenated by the monsoon downpour. Heavy rainfalls that blur the vision, paint the clearest picture after washing nature of all its dust and dirt. And just like the wafting aroma of earth after the refreshing showers reminds us of our connection with nature, the 2019 edition of Life Positive’s International Spiritual Festival in Coimbatore is here to remind you of your connection with the Inner Divine.
On August 24 and 25 at The Grand Regent, listen to the voice of your divine soul and get your spirits soaring. The two-day festival will help you see beyond the ordinary and teach you techniques to improve your life and those of others. Seekers will experience a deep sense of contentment and gain a new perspective on life.
So, come and feel the bliss in your very being!

The Power of Gratitude with Manoj Lekhi
Life is full of trials and tribulations, and one is bound to suffer during their journey on earth. But it’s the small moments and things we should all be grateful for, for they give us the strength to face even the most difficult of times.
Being thankful is the first step towards experiencing abundance. Through this workshop, Shri Manoj Lekhi (a spiritual mentor and key disciple of Guruji Rishi Prabhakar) will guide the participants to help them release their blockages.
To discover the deeper meaning of life, Manoj Lekhi opted out of a successful career of running a multi-crore business. His spiritual leanings urged him to take the plunge for self-transformation and become a medium for collective healing. He specialises in the ‘inside out’ approach to life, which is about transforming oneself from within and thereby experiencing abundance inside and outside.
This workshop is specially designed for those who feel a constant lack of something in their lives. It will take you deep into your inward journey and help you discover your true Self through the bhava (feeling) of gratitude. A feeling that unfolds miracles! The purpose of the workshop is to aid the participants to experience inner-actualisation, whereby they will feel rejuvenated and flowing with energy. You will rediscover inner strength and embrace abundance with open arms.
It is a known fact that you can only receive in accordance with the amount of space you have for receiving. Through the workshop, Lekhi will not only help you create more space for wonderful things to come in your life, but will also facilitate the healing of chronic health conditions by practising the gratitude technique. You will understand how to make life better by making little changes in and around yourself, thus leading to a more fulfilling life.
This module has helped thousands of individuals dissolve their fears, release sour past memories, fulfil aspirations, manifest their vision, and unlock abundance in health, wealth, and relationships. Join us to experience the same for yourself.
Time: 9.30 a.m.–6.00 p.m.
Decoding Abundance with Dr Raman Suri
Abundance is a gift that we all can access and which is ever available; all we need to do is get attuned to it. Everyone has their own definition and perspective of abundance, and the key to be aligned with it is to discover the true meaning of abundance and absorb it in your subconscious. To align ourselves totally with abundance, the trick is to be at the same frequency as that of the abundance which we seek.
All through the workshop, facilitator Dr Raman Suri will empower and encourage participants to make a shift in the abundance mindset. Abundance could be money, health, a sense of fulfilment, achievement of goals, happy relationships, emotional intelligence, or just being at peace in a state of being. This programme will attune the participants holistically to the frequency of abundance. By rewiring your abundance mindset, opening chakras, introspection, and enabling activities at the conscious level to detoxify the body, Dr Raman will help you decode abundance in your life. You will learn that it is only we who are blocking abundance, and by releasing these blockages, we can unlock the door to abundance in totality.
Dr Raman Suri, PhD (Metaphysics), is an International Coach Federation-certified Holistic Transformation Coach and Master Spirit Life Coach. She is also a Neuro Linguistic Programming Master Trainer and Reiki Master who believes that when one knows the self, one is ready for success. Having trained with Louise L Hay, Robin Sharma, and Dr Joe Vitale, she advocates the power of the mind and invents her own processes and programmes combining all her knowledge and wisdom, seasoned over the last seven years.
So, join us, and be ready to receive what the Universe has in store for you!
Time: 9.30 a.m.–6.00 p.m.

Mudra Healing with Abhay Kumar Shah
Mudra literally means ‘gesture,’ which symbolises the ritualistic and spiritual hand gestures practised in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Mudras involve mostly finger and hand movements and, at times, the entire body. This spiritual gesture seals the energy in your body by creating a circuit that allows prana (life force) to flow back into the body.
Many cultures, including those of the Chinese and Japanese, believe that the five elements: water, fire, earth, and space have powers and form the basis of cosmic creations. Mudras help in aligning these elements in our body, which, if misaligned, can lead to diseases or ailments.
Abhay Kumar Shah, a widely acknowledged mudra healer who has established his own method and science of mudra, is a successful practitioner for more than 10 years. His contribution to Mudra Shastra, a technique which helps cure physical and psychological problems, has made this ancient science relevant to the modern world.
Shah is a mechanical engineer who took an interest in Mudra Shastra while learning acupressure to cure his own ailments. Scrutinising and reading thousands of pages, analysing the gathered information, meeting every single resource, taking notes, and applying the acquired knowledge to cure health issues led him to become a mudra healer. He has treated thousands of people with varying diseases with the simple technique of mudras.
During the workshop, Abhay Shah will demonstrate various mudras to the participants. You will also discover the important role of mudras in the science of human health. Each finger is linked to certain energy points that direct the flow of prana to particular organs of our body. Arthritis, debility, emotional imbalance, and many other ‘dis-eases’ can be healed through mudras, as such problems, according to ayurveda, are caused by the lack or excess of the five essential elements. No arduous efforts or multiple medications; just a simple movement of fingers and hands will cure your ailments. So, come and learn ways to treat yourself!
Time: 9.30 a.m.–6.00 p.m.
Alchemy Sound Healing with Sonia Wadhwa
Sound travels as frequencies and has great healing powers. This healing works on the theory that all matter vibrates at specific frequencies, and disease, depression, and stress cause human beings to vibrate at a lower frequency. Thus, playing certain tones promotes healing, happiness, and vitality, by allowing the frequency of the cells to match the external frequency.
Alchemy is the process of transformation. Sound Healing is a deep process whereby transformation is done by using sound to bring you to a meditative space to begin healing. Sonia Wadhwa, a leading practitioner of Crystal Singing Bowls, will work with the vital sensory power of sound during this one-day workshop that will move the participants and allow healing by nourishing the soul. She is a qualified facilitator of meditation, a Vaastu Acharya, and a renowned Crystal Healer and Therapist who has been leading groups and workshops for over 20 years in the United States, Canada, Japan, and Australia.
Bringing the ‘Alchemy’ Bowls to India, Sonia will offer an immersive experience to the attendees, where they will listen to the divine sound of OM. This sound will bring you to your silent centre of meditative space to experience emotional peace, allowing the release of pains and blockages.
This completely experiential workshop will bring awareness about the five senses. Also, while exploring the ‘Art of Listening,’ participants will learn that hearing does not equate to listening. We listen when the inner being joins the ears, and that is how meaningful conversations take place as we open ourselves to unlimited possibilities. Through mantras and chanting, one can work to purify and strengthen the energy of their inner and outer space.
In this immersive workshop, sound will reach deep within and move you to the core. Participants will experience their divine Self and work on brain waves to calm themselves. See you soon for this ‘out of mind’ listening experience.
Time: 9.30 a.m.–6.00 p.m.
