My life has been a journey of discovering his life’s purpose, of learning how to spend my life more and more meaningfully. A road in this journey has taken me towards using communication to create positive social change through Centre of Gravity, an organisation I co-founded in 2005. Another road, a more winding one, has taken me inwards, towards a discovery of my own voice through poetry. My influences in writing range from Tagore to Rilke, Steinbeck to Marquez, but it is the poetry of Pablo Neruda that taught me to write and write with fire in my heart. My poetry covers a range of subjects from love to cities to artists to spiritual quests. I hope, my poetry can help readers celebrate life for what it is and offer them a ray of light when they find themselves in the darkness. Adrift, ashore is my second book — Bala
