Transforming Pain into Blessings: The Power of Creativity and Meditation
Introduction
Welcome to “Zorba the Buddha: Bridging Worlds with Osho,” a podcast series brought to you by the Dwarkadhish Holistic Centre in collaboration with Osho Fragrance. I’m your host, Dhwani Shah, and today we have a truly inspiring guest with us, Ma Bodhi Jagruti.
Born in Gadarwara, Madhya Pradesh, Ma Bodhi Jagruti, or Reema Jain, shares a unique and intimate connection with Osho. A dentist by profession, she earned her postgraduate degree in Europe and practiced for years before her life took a transformative turn. Through immense personal turmoil, she found solace and revival in meditation, which fundamentally shifted her perspective. She eventually left her dental practice behind and has been living in Goa for the past 10 years, embracing a path of profound personal growth.
Today, she’ll be speaking on a topic that is deeply personal to her journey: *Transforming Pain into Blessings: The Power of Creativity and Meditation.* Ma Bodhi Jagruti’s story is a testament to Osho’s emphasis on creativity as a “soul food” and the power of meditation to provide courage and insight. She discovered that by listening to her heart and accepting herself, she could turn her pain into a blessing. It is my great honor to welcome Ma Bodhi Jagruti to the show.
