‘‘The quest for sustained happiness and peace cannot be purchased as it is earned through lifelong dedicated efforts for self-improvement through regular Personality Defect Removal (PDR), sattvik lifestyle and spiritual practice under the guidance of an evolved spiritual guide. However, if one sincerely practices Spirituality as per universal principles then it will only be a matter of time before one is able to transcend the mind and obtain the experience of the Soul or the God Principle within each of us. This is the experience of Bliss, a superlative form of happiness, which is not dependent on anything.’’ These were the concluding words by Dr. Nandini Samant as she summed up her presentation ‘Finding peace of mind in a stressful world’ in the webinar. The webinar was organised by the South Asian Medical Students Association (SAMSA). It was held on 1st November, 2020 between 6 pm to 8 pm. The webinar was hosted by Dr. Shriya Saha, a mentor and the treasurer at SAMSA.

Then she explained the PDR process and how to use it to overcome the undesirable traits also known as personality defects and turn them into qualities. She then explained how Spirituality and a sattvik lifestyle helps in reducing stress.
