A Modern Yogi - A Different Kinda Memoir

Charu's first encounter with the "other side" was at age three when she elevated. Her gifts lay dormant until sixteen. But after the tragic loss of her older brother, miraculous events began to occur, one after the other. The grief over the loss of her closest confidant sparked something inside of her and as the years rolled on, unnatural phenomena continued to occur to her. A mouse, would stop and stare at her as if waiting for her to communicate or acknowledge him. This was only the beginning. As her family moves to Vancouver, spiritual guides begin to seek her out in the forms of a neighbor or a man she meets in Toronto. But Charu is not ready for the yogi within to come alive. Instead, she seeks out earthly fulfillment, takes on odd jobs to pay for her acting classes. She, then, travels to Mumbai to pursue her dream of becoming a Bollywood star, when her mysterious gifts begin to get in the way. A modeling gig leads her to a holy place. Something clearly has other plans for Charu. This is the evocative life story of Charu, a young Canadian-Indian woman, who travels from Winnipeg Canada to India to enlightenment. Her story is that of a remarkable young woman, a regular girl turned clairvoyant, who communes and channels the astral realm--but it is, perhaps, the story of us all along life's journey. Charu has plans, but the universe laughs.
