MUMBAI: Actress Donal Bisht, known for her grace and inspiring presence, recently visited the Art of Living International Center in Bengaluru. There, she engaged in a heartfelt and insightful interaction with spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, reflecting her ongoing journey of growth, awareness, and inner transformation.
During their meeting, Donal openly shared some profound questions that had been on her mind: “How much of worldly knowledge do we really need to understand? I was never inclined toward spirituality before, but over the last two years, I keep feeling drawn to it. I don’t actively seek it, yet something within keeps pulling me. Why does that happen?”
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar gently explained that spirituality is an inherent part of human awareness. Anyone who observes life deeply eventually feels a natural calling beyond material achievements and sensory pleasures. “Spirituality is simply tuning into your true self,” he said. “It goes hand in hand with your worldly life—it doesn’t take you away from it.”
His words resonated deeply with Donal, opening a space for her to reflect on her own journey. She shared how the last two years shaped her understanding of life and herself.
Speaking about her evolution, Donal expressed, “This conversation helped me understand so many phases I went through, the lessons life gave me, and the questions I carried quietly. I’ve always seen my life as a ladder of steps.
The first step was my early journey—the moment I arrived in Mumbai with dreams and small achievements.
The second step was the world of television, where I tasted success and recognition… but also felt that something more awaited me.”
She revealed that the third step of her life was turning inward—seeing life with deeper clarity and embracing her spiritual pull. “My time with Gurudev Ji and at the Art of Living answered so many of the silent questions I held within for years.”
Donal also shared that she now feels prepared for what comes next. “I’m ready for the fourth step of the ladder of my life. Sometimes you don’t understand the journey while walking it, but it always leads you toward something higher, something meaningful.”
Her fans applauded her sincerity, emotional courage, and willingness to grow. Once again, Donal proved she is not just a talented actress but also a beacon of positivity—continually evolving, inspiring, and touching hearts through every chapter of her life.
