Sea and Floating

Today was a rocking day, after finishing economics paper, finally I managed to visit majorda beach, near by colva beach. I was waiting for the opportunity to visit a beach from long time, as I was busy with many of my college activities....

Actually after exam many people from my class were ready to come to beach but none of them turned up [:)]... finally Eshans and me decided to go to majorda beach with towel and costumes to jump in infinite sea and the cool blue water was very tempting for both of us; after a walk of kilometer or two on sea shore we started with preparation to go in sea (I mean started removing our cloths on beach)... as soon as we started with it one watchman came to us and said, don't go in sea; their guests ('Foreigners') have problem with this... hehe... it make me laugh at that watchman's face, couldn't control... He conveyed us to go the next place, so we did. This time as soon as we jumped into sea life guard started staring at us...??? We were enjoying sea in a danger zone;(actually it was not danger later on that life guard only asked to swim there...)

Ya, so once we started swimming in that zone, life guard and that watchman of some sea resort had fight... Life guard were saying to him, "Your resort doesn't own sea, its for all and these boys seems to be good boys...!!!", on top of this, suddenly from no where 20-25 people like us came into the same side of beach and did exactly same thing, as we did... huh... that watchman was on the top of anger and life guard was telling us to enjoy in sea.... so over all it was a fun..... to visit such beach in such circumstances...

Eshans was carrying one small cricket ball and we were playing it in a sea, looking at that watchman and life guard and craking cranky jokes... till this time there were more than 15 people in the sea with us...

Okay apart from this I was lying on water on my back, I was floating in sea with eyes closed and facing sky, it was so lovely, waves were coming and going and I was floating up and down on waves... It's like a meditation, floating on sea on your back and looking at sea, keeping your body lose in water, this is the time when you can hear your breathing... Smile and close your eyes..."My party begins, the moment I close my eyes..." this time it was in sea...
Eshans was inspired by my such floating action and he was trying hard to float like me on sea, he was really pushing hard to do so, and I was telling him, take it easy and keep it simple then only he can float...and etc. Comedy part of this is whenever he manage to float wave use to come and water use to go in all possible holes of his face... After trying hard he gave and said he will do it next time... Till this time water was already inside his ears and head...

End of the day we decided to go out of sea and the same life guard was waiting for us and said hi and smiled at us... as if he was asking, "So you people enjoyed?", I said yes using my head and hand... he smiled and left. But that watchman was still staring at some people who were playing with sea sand and throwing it to each other...

Tempted with the concept of beach, a blue and clean sea shores with beautiful nature is calling me again and again, now once again back to the square one, "Waiting for next opportunity to go to some other beach.."

Then we had Dosa and Special tea at Krishna's near my college it's our normal hangout place for Tea (I like that tea..)

Again came back to college library and searching for information to present in my next presentation (Next time I will upload photos as well..)

Mission Green Earth

Why should each one of us plant trees........

it just takes 16 trees to actually give the total amount of oxygen that you use it in your life time.

A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.

Shade provided by trees can also reduce your air conditioning bill by 10 to 15%.

some of us are really working for this cause?.

your small help would mean a great contribution to something REALLY BIG...

From Bawa's Blog

Just gone through the most awaiting latest post by Bawa...
As I keep on waiting for his new post and as my longing for new post start increasing, bawa post some of the really nice articles....
His experience about A Broken Pipe is the best one to read... And especially what guruji said to bawa "Enlightenment is not simply knowing everything… Enlightenment is knowing everything and then forgetting it!"

And the way he has explained his guru experience is amazing to read....

Back from Navratri

Experience matters! Navratri in ashram is THE thing every one of us should experience.
This times navratri was having special effects on my mind with Guruji's talk, Devi bhagwat and Extra ordinary presence of one of my very close friend.

Navratri was rocking all the way in full mood. This time some things which guruji said were stricken directly to me, and then after talking he gave an angelic smile.

Some points which I remeber.

1. As you know that, whatever you are asking is getting real, then ask for something good. Ask for something which has real value. Don't ask for craps.
2. All situations are right, if you are able to find fault in situation, then there is something wrong in you not in a situation.
3. Everything happeing around is right.

I will add some more points if I remeber any....

Every time when I am suppose to leave ashram there is a pinch in side, this time I am still feeling that pinch...

Lots of fun I had in the head quarter of Art of living... If time permits will add more....

Reason And Faith

Reason is reeling in the known. Faith is moving in the unknown.
Reason is repetition. Faith is exploration.
Reason is routine. Faith is adventure.

I liked this though so much... 

Rudra Pooja in college

Yesterday our College was blessed by rudra pooja. Rushi vidyadharji were in SSIMS for Rudra pooja.
He explained us what rudra pooja is is all about. I knew that Pooja Means Purna Jagriti (All in Sanskrit) but yesterday I came to know great meaning of rudra pooja.
Universe is made up of 5 elements and so that our body is. And among 5 of these four elements have opposite.
1.Air can be used to breath, but air can be responsible for Hurricanes as well. So air has opposite of giving life and taking life and destroys.
2.Water element also has opposite, can give life and can take life.
3.Fire can be used to get heat and light. Fire can be destroying everything.
4.Earth is stable but earth quake can destroy everything.
But Ether element, space element, Shiva Tatwa doesn’t have any opposite…
And rudra pooja is surrendering to Shiva tatwa. Space element occupies more than 99% of the universe.
Our body is also made of 5 elements and among them four elements can have opposite effects. Chanting of Sanskrit mantras in rudra pooja stabilizes these four elements and has special effect on Space element.
Just being present during rudra pooja can align all elements of body.
Rudra Pooja is a very special ancient vedic practice.
Rishiji also talked about surrender.
My question : Rushiji how spirituality and management are related?
Rushiji : (Smiled) There is no term need of management, we just need to manage our mind and he went on explaining what is mind management. He said “ Look at guruji he has not done any mangment course, but managing so many minds, he has not even done Basic course….”

This is a new day with new experience

3^rd Aug 2008

This is a new day with new experience. Yesterday was full of bliss, but after returning to home in late hours, there were something for me to bother about, I had some calls and then no sleep till 2 am. And today I had to be on time for Long kriya; as one of my best friends was suppose to take the kriya and I didn’t wanted to miss it at any cost. This was her 1^st long kriya after she became teacher.

I was fully into the utter process of thinking when I reached for kriya. I took time to settle there. Yoga was going on so I had some time to sit and relax. It’s was a real bliss when 1^st of her sound hit my ears, Time stood still and I was experiencing some expansion inside. It’s like some essence of gurutatva was dissolving in my mind. Such thing happened first time. I was only able to hear her voice and nothing else. After few moments I did not even understand the words but some vibrations were penetrating in mind and I was relaxing more and more.

That voice had too much depth in talking and I was able to connect immediately. My ego, self and whatever, were simply dissolving in the nature. I remember some rounds of Pranayama and bhastrika. After that some rounds of natural rhythm with guruji’s voice, and done.

Actually my back and legs were paining; I remembered dinesh bhaiya’s voice “Accept it”; I did and pain simply disappeared.

All stress started vanishing and I was coming back in my natural mood. Wow one moment and two voices, yes one more thing to add, in between I forgot to breath, and someone again reminded me to breathe, and I started again.

This is all about the teacher being a friend or friend being a teacher. All things can’t be put into words; some of them need to be experienced.

After kriya I wanted to be in silence so I avoided to talk much, now as well I want to be in silence, but there is a fresher’s party, my seniors have organized it for us. Let’s see how I keep it up.
