Each religion tells us the ways to reach God. At the same time God resides within each of us.
God is inside me. This is one reason why people bring luck to others. This feeling of having God inside us makes us positive, daring and gives one the feeling it is possible.

In Hindi language it is said “kar sakte”which translates into I can do it. The daily of people is centred around this feeling of God within.

Living our daily life is also a way to God. I learnt so much from this land of ancient wisdom and where everyday life is so intricately linked to reflect the God within. I can feel it as a 'yogini' when I do asanas (body postures), or movement in kalaripayattu, the martial art. I think at the top the mountain is the same, but do remember there are many ways to climb that mountain. Though there are many ways that we can take to reach the top of the mountain, the top remains the same. Similarly, to reach God, people use different ways—some use dance, some pooja. This divine feeling also helps us to be helpful to others. When I was in India, as I wrote about it earlier, so many people helped me. Unknown people, strangers, my classmates. When I was attending Kalaripayattu classes, I got accompanied to the bus terminal in Chennai. It is not because I was a foreigner, but because my teacher was particular that students are well taken care of.
