Apart from being a Navy officer, Lt. Bhaskar is a writer, poet, security officer, philanthropist, spiritual healer, motivational speaker, physical trainer, triathlete, and diet consultant.
Born in a rich family in Amritsar and brought up in Delhi since he was 3 years, this man has justified each year of his life most magnanimously. Since childhood, Bhaskar’s aim in life was very clear. He knew he had to join the Armed forces. So, even at a very early age itself, he became serious and focused on his goal and showed the true value of time.
Bhaskar has 4 brothers, and he is the youngest of them. His father is a saintly man with 27 years of experience in astrology.
Story of an Achiever – Bhaskar Shukla
Lt. Bhaskar started working out and training himself for Army right at 6. He knew he needed to be physically fit to be part of the Armed forces and so gave his 100% to achieve it. He was very particular about his eating habits.
Being a part of the armed forces is not everyone’s cup of tea. One needs to be physically and mentally fit. Lt. Bhaskar’s dedication and inclination right from fitness to healthy eating habits and his routine sports, like running and swimming, were all a part of his long-term goal.
His inclination was towards things that were a sign of a well-managed and intellectual person. He loved playing chess, and he hasn’t stopped playing it still. Being a hard-working person, Lt. Bhaskar took part in a lot of competitions and won Chess Championships at different levels.
Lt. Bhaskar did his schooling from Navyug School, Sarojini Nagar, Delhi, and throughout his schooling and college life, he has been an active cadet of NCC and was certified with all the 3 A, B, & C certificates of NCC. He also got an NCC scholarship. At school, Bhaskar was a swimming champion and won a lot of inter-school swimming competitions.
Bhaskar shares his experience and says: “Navy has academic studies more than any other institution.” But since he left the Navy, he pursued further studies along with his job.
Lt. Bhaskar completed his MBA from IMT-CDL, Ghaziabad. He then did an Advanced Diploma in Fire Safety, followed by a certification course in project management from UPES & PMI, respectively. He also did a Master of Human Resources management.

Turning Dreams… into reality
Soon after his graduation, Lt. Bhaskar joined Indian Navy as an Officer Cadet in Executive Cadre through permanent commission entry of CDSE of UPSC. Though his dream was to join the Army however, he got selected for the Navy. He is one of those who found a positive vibe and God’s sign in everything, and so he showed his true caliber was in his work. This was an achievement on its own and he won laurels there and appreciated by one and all.
Uncertainties came with success
Bhaskar Shukla was seasick as he joined Navy and it could not go for long. He planned to switch to corporate life as a senior security officer, which was always his passion. He was initially very confident that being an ex-Navy officer with such skills and talent, any corporate would be more than happy to hire him. But soon his dreams and hopes were shattered, as no company offered him a suitable job. He couldn’t accept his misfortune and started losing hope.
After a lot of struggles, preparing at Career launcher for six months, he finally got a good percentile to bag a seat at a premium B school. Then, to his luck and by God’s grace, he started his career in Adani Group at Kuchh as a senior security officer. For 3 years he stayed at an isolated Mundra port which was owned by the Adani Group. Undoubtedly, it was way frustrating and being aloof for 3 years wasn’t easy. “Even today when I think of that time, I get goose-bumps”, says Lt. Bhaskar. “No one likes to live alone in an isolated place, it may leave a person angry, frustrated, and might lead him into depression” – he says.
A never-die approach of Bhaskar Shukla
Lt. Bhaskar Shukla was not one of those who would give up, so he kept himself busy. Today he is working with Thermal Power Plant at Jhajjar, Haryana as a security manager in 2017. He has received the highest accreditation of security, i.e. CPP® Certification of ASIS International, which is an international recognition of a gold standard and a matter of pride for any security professional and CISM® Certification by ISACA, one of the biggest recognitions of security certification.
Lt. Bhaskar has never been a loser and soon became a “Life-changing coach”. He helped people around him. For this, Bhaskar started helping people to show them the right direction in life. He started on his journey by mentoring his friends, colleagues and others. Further, he gave a formal name and position to his work as many people were approaching him too. Now, since past 10 years, he has been healing people spiritually and has become a motivational speaker too.
Spiritual healer and Spiritual runner
Lt. Bhaskar is a big follower and believer of Danveer Karna, a warrior of the epic Mahabharata. He not only believes but also follows his footsteps. He wanted to uplift the human mind and fulfill their needs in every way he could.
Lt. Bhaskar is a spiritual and believes that he is the blessed child of the Mother Lord, Gayatri Maa. He says that his strength and all his achievements are a dedication to this mother. The best way to do that is to make her proud with his work and achievements. Today he knows that his mother feels immense pleasure and satisfaction seeing his son reach such great heights.
Swimming has always been a part of Bhaskar’s routine and he loves it because he puts his soul to it. He chants while swimming & now he has started the same while running and that’s why he has been tagged as a Spiritual Runner.
