“Helped me overcome fears, put them to rest or just kill them”

CPM didn’t just have a profound impact on my life, it created an internal revolution…Have a very short attention span but was completely spellbound and enthralled every minute of each day we met…retreat gave me a glimpse of a life of unconditional happiness…Do I have all the answers to my questions? Hell no…Am I on the path where those questions do not bother me any more? Absolutely…CPM helped me overcome fears, put them to rest or just kill them…Thank you Professor Rao, thank you all who made this possible, thank the oneness in all of us - in essence, THANK ONE
