Hello brothers and sisters
My name is Vinay ( wee-nay) you can call me vin.
I am just an ordinary shy boy(17)
if you are too bored to read all this then skip to last line
.
I was a hardcore atheist at age of 12-13 . I used to challenge any spiritual thing. Being atheist wasn't that bad but it was not fulfilling.
I had keen interest in learning languages and most in learning new alphabet. And the first alphabet which i fall in love was arabic.
From learning arabic i slowly got in touch with Islam. I hadn't learned the spoken arabic yet so i decided to learn Holy quran in its full depth by learning the language complete. But i still read translated verses and prophets stories and really Muhammad(pbuh)'s and Jesus's story was so good and inspiring. Then i stumbled upon bible ,i attempted to read it one day and i read only old testament and i got really bored (still in progress.it is really a long book).i was getting curious about impossible things like god.
As i born in a hindu family you have to go to temples or the elders will keep poking you about it. I used to insult alot about hinduism.
i had a scientifically curious mind and didn't believe in god. But i realized it was hard to make points against hinduism (as i used to insult mostly hinduism) so i decided to read scriptures. Me and my family on a vacation visited a place called Kurukshetra where Bhagwad Gita was delivered. It was good because after that i sat for 5-6 hours reading Bhagwad Gita and i was just impressed . Then i started reading books on religion by Spiritual masters and one of my favourite book "How to become a Yogi" by Swami Abhedananda.
At the age of 14-15 i came across a organization named "Art of living" which teaches yoga meditation and all that. I wasnt into that stuff so much . My friend tricked me and said "if you do that course from art of living you will becaome super smart". I didn't became super smart but my life suddenly changed. From a shy-smiling-veryrarely guy i changed to cool-smiling-veryoften guy.
i became very interested about becoming an yogi and i try my best to .My only wish in this life is peace in this world.
i hope in this forum i learn new things and share everything i know
peace.
