A JOY-FILLED AWARENESS is the inspiring true story of a young man whose anticipated life path is upended when he is forced to become a warrior in battle while still clinging to his true nature as a spiritual seeker. Ultimately, he lets go of the past, of the person he thought he was, and becomes the embodiment of True Awareness.
Through life’s lessons he learns, little by little, to let go of attachments—to his job, to possessions, to the hard-driving lifestyle he had created. He finally returns to his roots as a follower of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, to whom he had devoted himself for eight years in his twenties.
Ever seeking, he journeys to the Brahmasthan, which Maharishi called “the holiest of all the places in India,” where 1500 Vedic pandits chant the Vedas. In this awe-inspiring atmosphere of recitation honoring Lord Shiva, he separates from his earthly body and enters the realm of his late teacher Maharishi and Maharishi’s divine guru, Brahmananda Saraswati.
