Sleeping Beauty

Hi
   Remember when we were kids ( I still am one ) we used to listen to stories... Few from Grandmothers and few in our school text book... Few as bedtime stories... And there was a story of a beautiful princess having sleep disorder... not insomnia of course... she was laden with a curse till she find real love.... Amazing story....
   But I am not talking about that Sleeping Beauty... I will like to share my experience when i was traveling from Amravati ( Maharashtra ) to Ahmedabad in a train... It was a very nice journey... A long one cuz the train was late... 2 hrs... and reached Ahmedabad 4 n half hours late... But the whole point is not about the complains of trains getting late and the driver sleeping off... hehehehe... It was a night journey... and I was not able to sleep as i had slept during the day after the lunch at a Rajasthani family's golden jubilee anniversary of a old couple... so u can imagine how was the food...
   Well so there i was not able to sleep... So i went and opened the door of my bogey and was standing at the door feeling the beautiful wind caressing me... Out there was a sky with so so many stars... Rare sight for a city dweller... and the entire creation was.... Just Sleeping... Well whatever i was able to see was sleeping... and then i realized that how Beautiful the sleeping nature was looking... each and every tree, the ground, the grass, the stones everything was just sleeping peacefully... And I was like " Guys this is the real Sleeping Beauty!!! " 
   There were very few lights which according to me were street lights... and few of the cars and trucks light on the highway which was coming across the path of the Train... Rest everything was just simply Sleeping... Beautifully Sleeping... This according to me is the Real Sleeping Beauty!!! Isn't it???
  Try this when you are traveling in a train and couldn't sleep... Just stare out of the window (to be on a safer side) and take a look at the resting Nature... I know that the nature is alive in the night also... but forget Logic and just experience the Sleeping Beauty...

Surekha - I mean Eurekka

If you are taking care of your own mind... The Master doesn't need to look at you... He looks only if there is a change required in you or there is trouble in the mind...
If you are taking care of your own mind then there is no feverishness or craving for the look or an appreciation or a gesture of acknowledgment... Just that there is a Longing which is out of fullness, completeness for that one look that communication in silence but no craving...
And there is a possibility of this happening vice verca also... But that is not my experience...

Be Longing

Hello there
I was doing the Sri Sri Yoga TTC and during that one fine day i was singing at the satsang and i had an amazing experience which i would like to share...
All these years doings satsangs at the Ashram and at other places I used to sing out of Longing... but that day i realized that there are 2 different types of longing... One is the longing in which there is a lack... something missing... and u r longing for it... and the other one is Longing out of Fullness... There is longing but no cravings attached to it... free of lack... which is way too high that any other type of longing... It is in this state you are totally free yet with the Longing... just Being with the Longing... Be(ing) Longing = Belonging.... :-)

Interesting na....hehehehe stay tuned for more...

Realizations!!!!!!

Hiiii
    Ever wondered from where and how these realizations come up... U suddenly spring up in your seat saying Eurekkkaaaa... the best part is that its already there in the consciousness... Many people before you have known it and many people after you will be knowing it... Its important that you know it... All the knowledge there is in this entire universe is present in the consciousness... 
   Till you awareness level reaches that level and you say that u realized something... All this game is of awareness... As the formula says Knowledge = ( Information + Experience ) X Awareness 
   All the knowledge is connected to each other in some or the other way... Knowledge as we say it... Sometimes!!!!! Well most of the time we say many things we know but actually we don`t....
   This can be a natural phenomenon if there is Practice...
Later...
