The fear dies when love blossoms

Oh, Come on....

What fear do you have, its all in your mind.

The fear of what people think of you, what they say if you do this and that.
Oh, Come on....They have the same fear

The fear of people make fun of you, people would laugh on your silly questions.
Oh, Come on....At least, you will be a reason to make them laugh.

The fear of some mistakes, some wrong deeds which can affect your future/relationships.
Oh, Come on....mistakes never happens intentionally. If it happens then learn from it and forget it.

Just put all your fears in one basket and surrender to divine. The fear is nothing but lack of love, When love flourishes, there is no fear. When you go from darkness to the light, the love flourishes and fear diminishes in life.

Lets put the mind on 2nd place

After studying and then working for so many years, these technical mind always entangles into the technicality of the object.
When its in nature, instead enjoying the beauty, it tries to count the trees, it looks for different species. When its in social gathering, it involves in some rubbish discussion or search another such pair, which can do technical bla bla to keep the mind busy....Lets keep aside these so called technical part of the body and start enjoying things by heart. 
When the mind enjoys a sunny day, it sees it as hot temperature, but the same is seen as a warmth by the heart. when the mind is in relationship, you ask for love but when heart is in relationship, you become instrument of love. So let the heart lead the way and keep mind on second place.

How do I see my life?

When I look back, I see my life as a flowing river. Like a river flows in one direction, which ever path it gets, it flows. My life is also the same. Flowing with its own pace, in one direction. This flowing thing is life energy: my prana.

When I look back, I see my life as a steady mountain, strong and firm. Like a mountain is very solid and stable similarly something in me is very stable and not changing. Something in me is unshaken. This unshaken thing is faith.

When I look back, I see my life as a calm and peaceful lake. The water in the lake is very peaceful. It has very serene environment around the lake similarly my life is very peaceful and serene. The outer attachments does not affect me. I am untouched by them.

When I look back, I see my life as a vast sky. The vastness of the sky shelters everything - rivers, trees, mountains, deserts everything. Similarly my life shelters many relations. It has many responsibilities and wears different coats at different times.

But in reality, life is above these all. It is neither river nor mountain nor lake nor sky. It is all energy which is pervading in different forms at different times. Life has a different taste and flavors at different times. We should only know how to channelize these energy in the right direction and than you see that the life becomes like a blossoming lotus and an instrument of love :)

Memorable time in BA

Back to India...but this time not for vacation but with some vision. Last one month was so amazing. So many good memories, so much love and affection. For now I dont know the purpose of mine coming back to India but I know, I will realise very soon. The trasition from Netherlands to India was so perfect that I am sure that there is definetely somethings for me waiting here. Every events were happening like some well planned. My contract ending on 1st March, than exactly getting 28 days for leaving the country, coming of Guruji on 22nd March, my interview scheduled on 21st March. It was like there was someone walking in front of me and clearing my road and I know who :)
The last day in Eindhoven also became memorable thanks to Beda, Bala, Aashish, Rajiv and Ashwin. It was great night we spent together. Now I feel more determined to share this love with people.
The memories of last few weeks I spent in BA is very precious for me. Those moments when I met Guruji, the moment when I applied chandan on his forehead, the time spent with lovely people specially Gabi, Manish, Su, Emanuele, Aura, Vestina....etc I will never forget.
I hope, I could again go back to BA for some more time and meet these people again :)

Here are some of the memories.....:)

Promise

If I had to promise you something, what would it be?

I cant promise that you would always be comfortable...because comfort brings boredom and discomfort.

I cant promise that all your desires will be fullfilled...because desires weather fullfilled or unfullfilled brings frustration.

I cant promise that there will always be good times...because it is the tough times that make us appreciate joy.

I cant promise that we will be rich or famous or powerful....becaue they can be all pathways to misrey.

I cant promise that we will always be together...becaue it is seperation that makes togetherness so wonderfull.

Yet if you are willing to walk with me.
If you are willing to value love over everything else.

I promise this will be the most rich and fullfilling life possible.
I promise your life will be an eternal celebration, i promise you I will cherish you more than a king cherishes his crown. And I shall love you more than a mother loves her newborn.

If you are willing to walk into my arms, If you are willing to live in my heart, you will find the one you have waited forever...you will meet yourself in my arms...

I promise...H.H. Sri Sri Ravishankar

The Incredible India

I remember those TV ads, which Indian govt. has launched for showing the diversity and rich culture of India. I never thought so deeply about the culture of India and why it is so special? After coming back to India in almost one year, I feel the difference between our culture and the culture of west. I am not saying that materialistically we are not developed or we are very poor as compared to the rich countries. Coming back to India was big culture shock for me than going to west and experience their culture. When I landed here before 15 days, I saw only chaos. I started observing people at the airport. Everything was looking very much negative. I was thinking, how a foreigner will think about my country, how is the officer at the airport behaving, why there is no security, why autowala is forcing me to take their auto, and the list continues. My heart was literally crying from inside by looking the condition of my country.
But if I keep this materialistic development aside, because I think it is mainly caused by the govt irresponsibility and corruption. They did not take sensible decisions all over the time.
I need to see more deeply, to understand rich Indian culture and people's mentality. There is no doubt the Indian people have inferiority complex, It is because of slavery by Britishers for a long time. It is actually improving by time, because there is no instant solution of this problem. In addition, I see deep connection and strong faith in people. This faith may be due to fear or devotion but it is there. In India, despite having lots of problems people are very content. They always have feeling of giving something and doing service without any intention. It is very much appreciable. We have a strong tradition of Yoga and meditation. This knowledge is very deep and people in west are hungry of this knowledge. I, myself have meet many people who appreciate me only because I am an Indian. I am from a place where vibrational energy is very strong because for ages rishis and munis have meditated here. Now after 15 days of living in India, my mind set is again changed. So what if there is no development, so what if people dont smile, so what if there are more poor, so what if govt is not good, it is my country. I am blessed to be born in such a beautiful land. I take responsibility to do at my level best to make it better place for living. 

The Silent Communication

How absurd is this title, The Silent Communication....can communication be possible in silence? And if it is, then how much effective will it be? Last week, I got a chance to go in the 3 days silence program of art of living. Those three days we were totally silent, even no talking with our self, no facebook, no mp3, no mobiles nothing, means no distraction from outside world. For someone (specially girls) it is impossible to be silent for few minutes, forget about three days. But the experience we all had was amazing.
There were in total 21 participants in the course and I could personally feel a strong connection with each one of them.
I like these lines from the course "the purpose of words is to create silence" but we never speak like that. We speak what ever comes to our mind and later on we feel sorry for that. Speaking too much also reduces the power of our speech. But when we speak after keeping silence for some time our power of speech is tremendous. By being silent, we start feeling the joy from inside. We don't need external factor to be happy.
That is how I am feeling now a days.
The course venue was in the middle of black forest in Germany, called Bad Antogast. It is international center of art of living in Germany. It was my second visit to that place. The place is so vibrant and full of energy. The day course started, snow also started there. The first snow of the season was very beautiful.
The teacher, who took the course, his name was Christopher Kiran Byrt. He was a German and have been in art of living from around 25 years. His silence was very strong. He doesn't need any word for communication that you can easily feel in his presence.
So for the first time I realized that it is possible to communicate even in silence and this communication is even more deeper and strong.
