Life about an EMI

My philosophy towards life became the one as stated in this quote by Shyam: “If you wish to enjoy life as nectar and honey, make sure your banks and trousers have sufficient money.”

Life About an EMI is the story of a small-town boy Shyam who dwells in the heart of every middle-class Indian who has huge aspirations from life and wants to lead the world through his intrinsic and inborn qualities – until at every step he is made to believe that life is not a bed of roses, but instead a struggle, and that you are here to earn your living and sacrifice the rest for family’s nurturing. 

Shyam’s childhood orientation paved the way for a life towards accumulations, possessions, social obligations and worldly emotions, until nature showered her grace upon him in the form of Radha. Radha entered his life as a fragrance of divine love and made him understand the importance of balance in life. She became a gift of God who blew him away with such an intensity of selfless love that her physical and metaphysical presence changed the course of his life.

It was time for Shyam now to decide how to lead his life.

Compulsively or consciously? Incompletely or absolutely? Desperately or willingly? Abruptly or profoundly?

Was he willing to continue his life as an Equated Monthly Instalment? Or was he striving to live it with Each Minute Insight?

What Shyam decided changed his life from an unconscious piece of life getting transformed in a radiant, vibrant & absolute conscious ray of light for humanity that became known to the world as Swami Shyam Charandasjee Maharaj.
