Sheetal is married to Arvind Singhania of the reputed Singhania family and he is considered one of the ace businessmen around. Samaira is married to Navneet who runs an NGO and belongs to a well-to-do family in the same city. Both the sisters, Sheetal and Samaira were leading a well-balanced life through Sahaja Yoga meditation and then all of a sudden they face challenges in their life.
Sheetal learns that her husband Arvind also has an elder sister who is no longer related to the family even so her mother-in-law, Mrs. Singhania is in sedation due to this reason and takes sleeping pills to sleep at night. Also throughout the day and the night she keeps watching her daughter Pritha and her children on social media. Sheetal tries to give her a balanced life through Sahaja Yoga Meditation and also promises herself to bring her daughter Pritha back to her mother-in-law's life. She gives her husband, Arvind moral support and from time to time encourages and guides him to face the challenges in life by remaining in balance. When the time comes, Sheetal brings Pritha back to the house with the power of her love and succeeds in her goal to reunite the mother-daughter and bring the whole family together.
Samaira's life gets into turmoil because of her aunt's daughters from London (Pony and Pinky) which leads to a rift in her relationship with her husband Navneet. Pony and Pinky's insistence on going to a nightclub poses a problem for Samaira. To top it off, their subsequent arrest in an unfortunate accident late that night that killed a hawker due to rash and negligent driving, lands them in jail. The full blown media coverage on TV of the incident throws challenges in Samaira's married life, until the grace of Sahaja Yoga meditation takes her and Sheetal's entire family into its embrace. Both Sheetal and Arvind solve the issue with their acumen.
Taking cue from the divine grace that saved Samaira's marriage, she provides a healing touch in the life of Mallika, her sister in law from London, visiting India with her husband Rohit who is Navneet's elder brother.
Through Sahaja Yoga meditation Dr. Aradhana provides insight to the scientific cause for Mallika's misfortune of not conceiving a child even after 10 years of marriage. She gives her Self Realization, when finally Mallika conceives. Samaira succeeds in helping her family understand how to fill the gap in their relationships with each other using the power of the love of God and by living a Sahaja life.
Pritha's husband, Aaron, a Scholar in Islamic Studies discovers the true meaning of Allahu Akbar & the entire Singhania family unites together to celebrate Arvind's success in his business & the reunion with his sister.
Both Arvind and Navneet wholeheartedly acknowledge the powerful enlightened Shaktis of their life partners whose roles as Grihalakshmis created strong bonds in their respective families. For when the Grihalakshmi becomes satisfied within, only then she transforms into Mahalakshmi, the giver of joy and evolution to a higher consciousness; the real wealth of life - The Mahalakshmi Path.

The Future of Fashion for All: Creating Safe Spaces
The fashion industry is one of the most mainstream industries today that still perpetuates harmful discriminatory practices within their field. From fatphobia, to racism, to ageism, the mainstream fashion industry is medieval in terms of its strides towards inclusivity. This lack of progress has been the backbone to many prominent issues facing young people today. Its effects have had far reaching and long lasting consequences for today’s young people; from eating disorders to openly discriminating against and outcasting folks with differing bodies. What can be done to stop these harmful practices and show young people a new way to live and ultimately love themselves?
The Future of Fashion For All follows Body Haven, a college club centered around body positivity and fat liberation, Rebirth garments, an fashion inclusive non-profit, and countless fashion experts as they tell their story of how the fashion industry has left a harmful and lasting impact on the world and how we as a community can work to change it.
