My life philosophy revolves around the belief that this wonderful existence is a result of the positive karma from our past lives, granting us the gift of human life. Within this human experience, the concept of "ananda" holds significant importance. Ananda, the state of bliss, can be attained through cultivating a positive mindset, embracing spirituality, and fulfilling our duties. As an artist, I effortlessly tap into this state of ananda, forging a connection with the divine that leads me down new, vibrant paths in life, enhancing the art of experiencing life itself.
