My Journey of Revival

Human tragedies and agonising pain introduced me to the connection between my soul to the Great all, the Eternal Universal Intelligence or “God”.
During 1994, I went through agonising experiences of losing my mother and brother and 10 members of my extended family in the Rwanda genocide.
I moved to Ireland with my only son who died tragically in 2006. I felt I died with him and I went into a period of darkness and lethargy. Treatments and support I received were not helpful. One day during meditation, I realised that something needs to change, and to get out of the bottomless pit I was in, nobody else is capable except me. I must be the one to change the situation I was in.
That realisation was possible due to my spiritual transformation and the awakening that followed where I got a sense that I was more than the human form/ego.
Sometimes we contract with the universe/God to experience certain painful things on Earth that are not spiritual so we can learn what is spiritual (love, kindness, compassion, charity, gratitude, peace, etc.) and share the learnings with other human beings.
