Hi, my name is Chethna Ben. In 2023, I started my PhD studies in a new country Australia and have since been on a journey of transformation both academically and personally. There have been a number of experiences I was bubbling to channel and share for others who are in their own creation of knowledge and internal awakening, and felt this website and the blogs may be the avenue to create that sense of communication and information. I hope my journey inspires those reading this that life is what we make of it and it is okay to try even if we don’t commit to a path.
One thing I have learnt is that a PhD is far more intricate in nature than a thesis, and involves sacrifices that are not always visible or understood. I hope this channel is able to bring and carry the energy of clarity, humor and safety into your day through the ‘Bula’ spirit.
The word ‘Bula’ originates from my home country Fiji, where smiles like sunbeam shines any dull day. It’s meaning is literally hello with good health and life. As you read through my blogs I hope that the warmth of home and beauty of existence comes at the center of some very beautiful experiences I encountered personally and through others stories. I do reveal empathic honesty of life, as well which is not always perfect, and that is okay too. I definitely could not share all this in a thesis, but I belive its worth sharing.
Happy Reading!
