“Looking back at her journey, Gayathri says, “Depression has caused a great deal of pain and suffering in our life; it has also blessed us with many gifts. It has taught us about the power of love to heal all wounds, the fragility of life and the invincible resilience of the human spirit.” Gayathri has documented her incredible story in a book titled, Shadows in the Sun: Healing from Depression and Finding the Light Within (Random House, India). It’s a memoir that provides a first-of-its-kind cross-cultural view of mental illness. “Ever since I was tormented by mental illness as a teenager, I had looked outward hoping that someone or something could light my darkness away. Yet, in my darkest hour, I discovered the light within – my AntarJyoti, which has empowered me to transform my life and the lives of thousands of people struggling with mental health issues around the world. I’d like to say: Do not fear the darkness in your life, for it is in your darkest hour that you will discover the light within the light of love, hope, wisdom, courage and compassion. The strength we seek in others is inherent within us all,” she concludes, her smile lighting up her beautiful face.”
