Anubhooti ‘09

Jai Guru Dev!!
Love.
Deep.
Its all. Done YES!+, YES!++. Keep smiling & tell ‘Jai Guru Dev’ to everyone. Nice, happy, lovely, amazing & ‘like anything’. Ok. Now what??!!!!!!!
Now Whhhaaaattttttttttttt?!?!?!????!!!!!!
There was a Bang & let there be light voice NOWRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
Then started the run for life. Run Lola Run. As I started running, my friend said even my favourite activity is to run!! So Mind ran …………… hmmm ……
so all that knowledge was for this reason – Strong mind !!! And guess what !!!!!!!!!!!! Strong mind resides in Strong Body.(didn’t it find some easy place to dwell??!!)
I must have understood by the morning that day. “We will start with Long Kriya.” Yes Grrreeaaattttttttt!!!!!!. But dilatory pranayam sucked my breath out ………. Hold…………………………….………………………………………2……………………………………………………………..……………………3……………………………………………………………………………….………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………4……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. one more count and I was surely lost in the vastitude of cosmos.
But Why am I running anyway? No premises & logic and what type of absurd conclusion is this??
To RUN!!
I am not running nomore. Last round. That’s All!!!!!!.
But ‘The One’ overrode every time ‘the one’ came near.
Bernoulli stated increase in pressure decreases speed. Mornings create pressure. Running increases it. Hmm, he was true, but still I had only one mantra ‘If I can talk, I can trot.’
After relentless running, running became the very state of being. Just effortless. It was not running but stopping that was painful. Not body but the mind was complaining all the time, while it was mind which felt utmost relaxation at the end. Thus Guruji says, ‘Never Mind’.
Completely dirty and still cent percent fresh we went to ‘Chhappan’ (‘beautiful’ Indore street with 56 eateries) with full enthusiasm. Reluctant to talk randomly to any one ‘Jai Guru Dev’ was the only weapon left. I realized, while Seva what matters is only smile on my face & belongingness.
With extreme daily exercise, meditation, Ankur’s all time best Talk (and the power of fragrant flower) success was not far away.
I went, I faught, but without Sword. So no reward. But then I learnt one more thing. Along with 100%, conviction that gift of Kriya and Knowledge is of utmost important irrespective of anything is inevitable.
Learnt from our experiences, swords were forged and sharpened for next day. Once again Ankur gave a bakait talk (& once again I had to listen) in a boys hostel and we all despite of our crippled legs ran (girls specially), caught & talked to each person. And a successful start was kicked.
Last moments of course were near. Celebrations were all over, songs were sung, magic was spread by Nishith’s guitar, photos were clicked, Great Hall was echoing with laughter (as usual two witches clearly dominated), Tulsi stopped crying(great news). Bhaiya cooked ‘Vegetable something with gravy’. It was utterly butterly delicious. After having lunch, we packed our bags and started for return journey.
Despite of third class bus journey and train-floor-sleep-dancing (for story, ask Pushkal) we all were merrymaking, celebrating & Laughing all the way back.
It was in true sense an internal experience – an Anubhooti. YES!+ taught me to give 100% in every task. In YES!++ I gave 100% and lived the experience. Then came YES!+ Anubhooti and I learnt to go beyond 100%.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross (even I don’t know who she is) truly said, "People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within."
Now I say,
Jai Guru Devaaaa!!!!!!!
Love U All friends. YoOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Deep (naam to suna hoga)
PS: I have an intuiton that after Anubhooti all types of Drinking problems & SES(Sneha Everywhere Syndrome) must have been resolved.
PS2: Thank U Sonu bhaiya very very much  . Without U and exercises, course would have been like Einstein’s Relativity w/o E=mc2 or Laptop w/o Operating System(or with Vista).

10 commadments of Joy

Article published in Arunachal times on 31 dec 2008:

Welcome the year 2009 with a smile from within and wish everyone with a sankalpa for peace and prosperity for all the people on the planet. Make a resolution to do more good to society, help the people who are in need and bring solace to who are suffering. Let our life be useful to one and all.

Today, most people are confused because there is no direction in life. The difference between flood and a normal river is that water flow is regulated in a river. Similarly, the energy in our life needs some direction to flow. If you don't give direction, it is all confusion. When you attend to the spirit, life attains its highest and becomes a celebration. Here's how you can nurture the spirit in the New year....

The ten commandments fo joy will follow in the coming posts...

Irony

Om Shanti

Om shanti is said three times.

The purpose is to wish for peace in the world. Only when there is peace around you, you can be peaceful. When there is a war in the world you cannot be peaceful.

The second is to wish for peace within you. If the world is peaceful but your mind is not peaceful that is also not useful. So there is a wish for peace to your mind and body.

The third is to wish for peace in your soul or atma.

So let there be peace in the world, in the mind and in the soul. Om shanti, Om shanti, Om shanti.

(Excerpt of talk given by Guruji in Trichy in Jan 2009)

Gifting a smile

Studies

This post has been taken from the blog: Hues of Joy (http://ratnaabhishek.blogspot.com/2009/02/studies.html).

Around 7 years ago, Guruji was meeting a group of young adult participants in Narayana. I also got in with them, for i just wantedddd to meet Himmmm. In the QnA, one girl asked, "Guruji, how to become perfect at studies?" Guruji asked "What?"

"How to become perfect at studies Guruji?"

"What?"

"How to become perfect Guruji?"

"Come again..."

"Guruji how to become perfect?"

"What?"

By now the whole group (mostly girls) were giggling...

When the girl started to ask again, Guruji, who had been looking right into her eyes all the while, abruptly asked "Got it?"

So, got it?

Desktop Wallpaper

Smashing magazine's desktop wallpaper calendar's are pretty interesting and find their way to my desktop every month. This month I made my own desktop wallpaper. Without much design skills and resources and time, they leave room for a lot of improvement.


It feels nice to start the day with some words of wisdom from Guruji. Just save the above images and use as your desktop wallpaper or better still create some of your own and share it on the blog.

Sharp eyes?

Here's something to keep you occupied on a sunday. Check out http://woodgears.ca/eyeball/index.html. See how accurate you can get with your geometry. Its fun! If you do get a great score you can boast about it here!
