About us
A Space for Meaningful Growth
Exploring responsibility, awareness, and inner connection in an open and human way
Personal Growth
We explore ideas, questions, and practices related to personal growth. Curious about what helps us live with more clarity and presence.
Responsibility
We explore what it means to respond consciously to life. Pausing, choosing, and taking responsibility instead of moving on autopilot.
Awareness & Meaning
Together, we open space for reflection and conversation about awareness, purpose, and the deeper layers of human life.
Learning Across Time
Exploring diverse cultures and traditions. Bringing older perspectives into modern life, and noticing that beneath changing technologies, our human core remains shared.
Are we still waiting?
In many cultures, there is a prevailing notion of a “future to come”.
The idea that “real life” is something that happens elsewhere, and that our current existence is merely a temporary waiting room.
We find ourselves waiting for redemption. The redeemer. The realization of Dharma. Every culture has its own name for the same figure or the state – that will finally render our present lives noble and worthwhile.
- It is very easy, through simple cynical reasoning, to strip our current existence of its meaning. ​
- It is just as easy to claim that meaning is deferred to some distant future where life will finally "truly" begin.​
Both approaches share a common flaw:
They absolve the individual of responsibility for the life they are living right now. The only life they are actually experiencing.
The truth is, if you don’t know how to infuse your life with meaning here and now, you won’t be able to articulate the significance of that “hereafter” either. You will simply continue to project that responsibility onto the future, waiting for it to reveal this mystery to you. Meanwhile, that promised future has yet to arrive in any of those cultures.
Sadhguru often says that the greatest crime ever committed against humanity is the idea of “Heaven”—or any concept of a “future world.” The belief that there is a better place to be than here and now distances people from the magic of the life they are currently living. Sometimes, it even leads them to live in a way that is harmful—not only to themselves but to others and to our beautiful world.

 This is the place! Right here, right now. This can be Paradise if we treat it as such. If we learn to perform every action with involvement, connection, and willingness, we experience our existence as heaven. Conversely, if we move through life with resistance and detachment, it will inevitably feel like hell. It is a matter of choice, and it rests on the shoulders of anyone who wishes to make the most of their life.
Indeed, within all these traditions, there are those who interpret redemption, paradise, or the “end of days” as metaphors for states of consciousness. These concepts provide a glimpse into a utopian state, defining it clearly so that we may know how to live today. This path may not necessarily lead all of humanity to a collective utopia—that is not entirely within our control—but it does lead the individual who takes responsibility toward a life that is more qualitative, integrated, and enlightened.
What do we choose?
If we train our minds to adopt this perspective, and if we align our hearts with our experiences, we can inhabit paradise here. Within the life we are living now, without any need for another.
It is elusive. It shifts. It comes and goes in an ebb and flow. But it is possible, and it is our responsibility. The more we practice it, the more we study it, and the deeper we dive into it, the more we will succeed.
The choice to live life this way is what this website calls “Redemption Style.” Because a life of redemption is, ultimately, a lifestyle.
