Carl was born into war. When he was just a toddler, he often woke up to his mom’s panicking voice asking him, his siblings and his father to run to the bunker and hide. At the age of 12, he fled his home country heartbroken. These events always created questions in his mind &amp; heart. Why is this happening to him? Why do people kill each other? Why do innocent families have to suffer the consequences?To find answers to his pain, Carl went on a journey. He tried to find salvation in sports, romantic relationships, new personas, ambitious careers, &amp; business start-ups. He also explored religion, psychotherapy, yoga, meditation, books, seminars, and spiritual gurus. He questioned everything, including these methods.Despite his efforts, he couldn’t find a truly freeing approach. Each one had its benefits but was also complicated &amp; binding. After years of assimilating their essence, he realized that the foundation of transformation was incredibly simple. Today, he shares it with other spiritual seekers. He shares how he applied it to go from confusion to clarity, from being medicated to free of medication, and from depression to lasting enthusiasm.
