24 hours

have already passed since my return from the abode of Tapas.

Rarely do I get calls on my mobile and this friend of mine called me today morning. There was no answer for a minute from her to my response "Hello my dear!”

Then, she said after regaining her composure, “I felt Guruji’s love in your words.”

Who would not carry his energies of purity and love when it’s hardly a few hours after meeting him? It’s no wonder at all.

Actually, I don’t really care to probe into my depths whether the bondages of this life are my choices or learnings or call it by any name. I am equally not interested to know whether my choices were/are right or wrong. I’m peace with all because there must be a reason at some level.

However, I am proud of my one choice for identifying the Sun of my life. It’s not the artificial flickering glitter that one sees all around in the name of spirituality but a shining Sun that accepts and guides everyone with love.

In fact, I’ve returned to my living den yesterday night as a child.

I am happy.

One great idea

can move mountains, so say the Elders. Are we going to witness such a phenomenon?

It’s very touching to watch on TV the 74-year OLD man of simplicity, sitting on the dais for a cause with iron will. While writing this blog, AH is on Day 8 Fast and going strong thus inspiring millions across the country & abroad.

In spite of the many questions & answers for/against the Lokpal Bill that are being raised and debated, in spite of the success and/or failure predicted, the main point to be understood is that there IS hope for a ‘Change’ now.

Not only does this demonstrate the Power of inner strength, it also hints at the unfolding of divine plan for a greater shift towards a life of glory and purity.

Every person and country should respond in its unique way to this Call of shift. And they all do unconsciously. So, every positive thought / idea counts at the collective global level during these moments of ‘Change'.

Well, it’s just the beginning.....

Beloved Krishna

I still remember your whispers into my deaf ears, which paralyzed my ordinary life of anonymity...


• You are blessed
• You are special
• You are perfect
• You are beautiful
• I Love You
• I say all these because you are my eternal friend


I know you share the same with every life out of divine love. Yet I can only see the equation that I’ve with you because I'm blind too.

Let me assure you that I shall always remember to do what I need to, in a quiet way.

Waiting to meet you soon......again,

With Love...

I have the habit of

looking around the school or class for something interesting – quotes or words or pictures...

There was an inspiring quote hanging on the wall outside the Principal’s room...

“If you can dream of it, you can become it.”

I smiled for I was given the lead for the day....

Unfortunately, most of the students didn’t seem to notice these inspiring words all these years. Now, they should not forget....hopefully. :) However, there was one particular class which took my breath away as I entered.

Instead of ‘No. On Roll’ and ‘No. Absent’, they had written No.Shining’ & ‘No.Hidden’. Truly, the class was shining not only by recalling the quote instantaneously, but also by giving a thunderous applause at the end, probably welcoming their dream world ‘it’.

There's one point that I stress always... Only a person of imagination has the power to dream; only a person who is capable of dreaming can put-in extraordinary efforts; and only such a person can be successful.

Undoubtedly, the little ones are the most receptive and expressive.

Let me record here that I am happy that I've met them at least once before I could instantly respond to His Call 'Come' to move to another world of existence.

Hunger

Somalia's hunger crisis brings tears....

Hunger is one of the worst spears that can hit any persona to lose sanity, dignity, diplomacy and patience. Hunger can push a person to lower levels in a moment.

I was shocked when I read (sometime back) about a village that does mercy killing the elders who fall sick terribly because it can’t afford to treat their illnesses due to extreme poverty.

When half of the world’s population is struggling to appease hunger and thirst, it’s of bad taste to waste food deliberately. There's another sect who deny food to the needy at appropriate time, for reasons known only to them. There’s nothing wrong in getting angry with all such arrogance, I feel.

Probably, such people do not know what hunger is. Probably, they’ve not understood the meaning of ‘empathy’. Probably, they are not aware of the crushing blows of the Laws of Karma – on individuals and collective humanity.

Whatever be the reason, personally, I feel that they are one of the many facets of ignorance.

Hunger can be completely wiped out from this world only when we erase the borders of countries, see ourselves as One Being and share the abundance equally.

To talk of hunger, the form of Irom Sharmila enters into my being in full force. Can a person glow with such inner strength and hold on to her fast for more than a decade? Can a person be so graceful, full of gratitude and smiling in spite of injustices done on her?

I go speechless and humbled whenever I think of her.

After all, we are free to create our lives the way we wish, isn’t it?

Sky never fails to answer...

There are many who had entered into my domain very closely and drifted apart for various reasons. It’d always be their choice to tear apart and not a question I would like to ask.

Recently, the Providence made me meet one such (distanced) unexpectedly. For a moment, I stared at the face which failed to recognise me. All those painful memories tried to enter into my being to ignore the face.

Thankfully, my vigilant mind helped me to accept this testing situation too gracefully and take the first steps of friendly handshake. Needless to add here, we had a good time together.

Since my childhood, I am fascinated by the vast expanse of Sky, which I know has many secrets waiting to be unveiled. So, I always look up at the Sky for guidance.

Sometimes, it is an immediate roar and sometimes it is just a gentle late wink. But Sky never fails to answer… :)

Eyes

I saw the formation of tears in her little eyes. And there was earnestness in her expression.

“Your legs will pain…… if you walk the whole of India to meet children like us....”

I was touched. Not because these little angels showered so much of love on me, but because their innocence is still intact.

In the present world where the Body, Mind & Intellect are abused to the maximum, there seems Hope in the future generation.

I am happy to see this Hope shining in the little eyes more brightly than the adults.


................................................................................


Just look into one’s eyes and you’ll get to know how genuine a person is, even if the whole body language is intelligently choreographed.

That’s because eyes give away the truth whether we accept it or not.

Whenever I see unconditional love in a pair of eyes, my heart expands and eyes brim with tears.

All I can give back is the unconditional love through my eyes……. silently with a smile, whether the receiver knows or not.
