               Suresh Mirchumal is a spiritual writer. “Well, you can categorize it like that, although
               I don’t call myself one. These thoughts come in effortlessly.” His aim is in a way to
               reach out to whoever gets inspired or has an eye opening event within them that
               may transcend their current state of consciousness. “Or let’s say current emotional
               state too. If one in a thousand benefits, that is already great.” Due to the current
               world state, lots of struggles and stresses, we seem to lose touch with that inner
               peace that we long for, Suresh explains. “I wish to ease that through these small
               articles or tidbits.” You will find his tidbits in Aruba Today from now on, like a sunray
               of the day. If you wish to make use of Suresh his services like meditation or just a
               talk, please email to: Thedimensionofsilence@gmail.com.
