Yesterday was a charismatic day; I was waiting for this day from last many years, to meet Guruji on my birth day. Yes it was my birth day and I was in the ashram to celebrate it. I experienced a shift of mind in some moments.
“Feeling normal!” Actually it’s a state of mind I was missing from the day I came to Bangalore. Many things were buzzing my mind for no reason. uff.... I was observing my mind at times and use to tell myself "chill this will also pass, and there will be shift in mood of my mind." during these unstable days I tried to be quite. I was waiting for my birth day; I knew that there is going to be change in the state of my mind.
On Saturday only I went to ashram for stay, and got a very good accommodation. In the morning I woke up after breakfast timing. No breakfast!!!... In night many calls on mobile to wish happy birthday, so couldn’t sleep on time (feels good to receive so many calls on birthday). I got ready by the time of 10.30am and Kriya starts at 11.00am. I had decided that, “come what may I am not going to do kriya, I am not feeling well so I am going to canteen to have hot milk.” I convinced my 4-5 friends that I am not coming for kriya. Around 10.50am one of my close friend called me for birthday wish, asked me to come for kriya, “Now this voice was like an angelic voice for me and message I got was, Birthday Dude what are you doing come for the kriya….” This was really like an angel talking to me, my ego of not going to kriya just melted and evaporated in atmosphere. Now I just can’t resist the kriya and ran to do sudarshan kriya.
“After kriya” experience was the special effect of THE KRIYA and THE CALL to get me back to the normal mood. Yes form that moment I am feeling absolutely normal. Exactly same way I use to be, I just came back to my original nature and feeling more stable. It’s like a transition from one state of mind to another state of mind. I feel that, this one month was a time required for transition and my mind was wondering big time… After being in Art of Living for years, handling mind and situations in the utterly pathetic conditions was a fun for me. Just apply all the sutras learnt and get ready for the magic, yes it is magic just breathe, and there is better world in front of you.
Once I came back to normal, there was a treat in kitchen; I was very hungry, happy and normal… I hogged. It was like my birthday and whole ashram was celebrating it, food was delicious- chapatti, subji, rice and dal along with curd rise and khir (Of course everyone around me was happy with food). Wow food I really hogged big time. (Actually in Banglore all the time, what I ate was Dosa or some food belongs to Dosa family.)
Canteen people were waiting for me to order a cake, almost all people in canteen knew that it’s my birthday. I ordered cake, the chocolate one! Now I wanted to buy some gift for myself so I bought one nice kurta (I was missing one kurta, I am very bad in choosing good cloths. My friends helped me out for it. Everyone also liked the Kurta.) No need to say that I was missing my family people there and some of my old friends who always use to be around for my birthday…

During satsang time I was waiting with my cake for Guruji to call all birthday people on stage. I prayed that “there should be only one person who have birthday today” there were some 3-4 people with me, he blessed me and gave garlands…
After I met guruji some small kids came running to me for cake, I did give cake to all the people around and managed to keep some cake for my near and dear friends. ..
This birthday was really different one- Lovely atmosphere in ashram, the call, sudarshan kriya, delicious food, meeting with guruji, and extra ordinary presence of my absolutely lovable friends (there were more friends of mine than expected, feel good to get birthday wishes from few hundred people)…
