Aravamudhan

TODAY ITS 33 YEARS COMPLETED....23RD JAN 1980...IT SEEMS MY MASTER WAS TALKING RIGHT FROM
THE MORNING MANY THINGS TO HIS WIFE...HE TOLD HER ABOUT HIS LITTLE SAVINGS....HE GAVE HER
MANY INSTRUCTIONS AND SHE WAS SURPRISED TO SEE HIM SPENDING SO MUCH TIME WITH
HER...FINALLY HE SAID TO HER...'DEAR THE TIME HAS CUM FOR ME TO LEAVE THIS BODY....ASK UR
BROTHER'S SON TO PERFORM MY FUNERAL RITES...I HAVE WRITTEN THIS HOUSE IN HIS NAME AND HE
CAN ENJOY IT AFTER YOUR DEMISE WHICH IS EXPECTED IN ANOTHER 14 MONTHS TIME....I HAVE TOLD
MY SISHYA SRIDHAR NOT TO CUM AND SEE MY BODY...HE WILL CUM AFTER ALL CEREMONIES R OVER

Narayanan Namboodri

|| KAPALA TANTRAM ||

WHEN I WAS 14, MY MASTER NARAYANAN NAMBOODRI TOOK ME TO A DENSE FOREST FOR THE FIRST
TIME.
MY FEAR VANISHED AFTER GOING THERE. HE TAUGHT ME “PARAKAYA PRAVESHA VIDYA” THROUGH
KAPALA TANTRAM. THE SOUL LEAVES THE BODY IN THIS PROCESS. THEN I CAME TO KNOW WHAT
DEATH IS AND ENJOYED THE ACTUAL EXPERIENCE OF DEATH. HE BLESSED ME TO DO THIS 20-30 TIMES
A DAY. IN THE TIME OF YAGNAMS THIS NUMBER MAY CROSS 90-100 TIMES A DAY. WHEN I LEAVE MY
BODY IN THE FOREST FOR THIS PRAYOGAM, ANIMALS COME NEAR THE BODY, LICK IT AND GO. THEY
WONT DO ANY HARM TO THE BODY.

ONCE I ASKED MASTER RAJAR, ‘ MASTER, WHAT IF ANIMALS EAT OUR BODY IN SUCH CONDITIONS?’

HE SMILED AND SAID, ‘THEN IT MEANS THAT OUR WORK IS OVER AND ITS TIME FOR US TO LEAVE.’
MY PROSTATIONS TO MY MASTERS....

Maharshi Rajar

1. ONCE MYSELF AND MAHARISHI RAJAR WERE IN MEDITATION SITTING OPPOSITE TO EACH OTHER
WITH A 10 FEET GAP......THERE USED TO BE A FEROCIOUS LEOPARD WHICH RAJAR USED TO CALL AS
'SAKYA'.....HE HAD CUM AND WAS SMELLING ME....I COULD NOT MEDITATE AND I OPENED MY
EYES....ALMOST HE WAS ON ME...I DID NT MOVE A BIT....I WAS ALSO NOT INTERESTED TO CALL MY
MASTER BECAUSE HE WAS IN DEEP TRANCE....HE WAS GOING ON SMELLING ME....SUDDENLY RAJAR
MADE A STATEMENT...'DONT WORRY MY BOY...THE MASTER AND THE DISCIPLE HAVE THE SAME BODY
ODOUR...SAKYA KNOWS U R ME AND I AM U...DONT WORRY'...I SMILED AND SAID...' MASTER IM NOT
WORRIED ABOUT SAKYA SMELLING ME BUT I WAS WORRIED THAT IN THAT INTIMATE MOMENT WITH
SAKYA, I SHOULD NOT DISTURB UR TRANCE...I AM SORRY MASTER...EXACTLY THAT HAS
HAPPENED'.....RAJAR JUST SMILED AND SAID...'EVERYTHING IS THE WILL OF GOD....STARTING AND
ENDING TOO...WE R NOT THE DOERS...ITS LORDS WILL THAT MY TRANCE SHOULD GET OVER...SO HE
SENT SAKYA...HE DIDNT GIVE THAT IDEA TO U FOR HE HAD OTHER IDEAS'.....

2. GRACE OF THE LORD IS ALWAYS THERE FOR US....HE HAS HIDDEN HIMSELF IN ANYTHING AND
EVERYTHING....THE IDEA MAY BE TO PLAY WITH U THE GAME OF AJARHIDE & SEEK.... HE SEES TO THAT
HE HIDES IN EVERYTHING SO THAT U DONT MISS HIM... MY MASTER RAJAR USED TO JOKINGLY SAY
THAT WHEN HIRANYAKASHIPU ASKED PRAHLADA WHETHER LORD IS IN THIS PILLAR, IT SEEMS LORD TO
MAKE SURE HIS HIMSELF IN ALL THE THOUSAND PILLARS IN THE PALACE NOT TO DISAPPOINT
PRAHLADA INCASE HIRANYAKASHIPU LAST MINUTE CHANGES HIS MIND AND HITS ANOTHER PILLAR
INSTEAD OF THE ONE POINTED OUT..THE ONLY HITCH IS WE ONCE AGAIN NEED HIS GRACE TO
UNDERSTAND HIS GRACE....EVERY THING IS LORDS GRACE...PRAISE THE LORD...

3. THAT DAY WAS A MEMORABLE ONE FOR ME....MAHARISHI RAJAR ASKED ME TO GO DEEP INSIDE THE
FOREST...AROUND 20 TO 25 MILES FROM WHERE HE WAS, TO MEDITATE BEFORE WE DO A PRAYOGAM
CALLED 'CHINTAMANI'.......HE SAID I HAVE TO GO ALONE.... I JUST WENT IN THE DIRECTION HE POINTED....
I REACHED A BEAUTIFUL SPOT....SURROUNDED BY MANY MOUNTAINS...A BEAUTIFUL VALLEY WITH LOTS
OF GREENERY AROUND...IT WAS SLIGHTLY DRIZZLING...SUN WAS ABOUT TO SET...IT WAS TWILIGHT
TIME... I FELT A BIT TIRED AFTER THE LONG WALK... SO I THOUGHT OF TAKING A SHORT NAP... I JUST
LIED DOWN....THE SHORT NAP BECAME A LONG ONE... SUDDENLY I REALISED SUM HEAT... I OPENED MY
EYES.... JUST 5 FEET AWAY FROM WHERE I WAS SLEEPING SUM LOGS OF WOODS AND TWIGS WERE
BURNING... IT MUST BE PAST MIDNIGHT AS IT WAS PITCH DARK... I HAD OVER SLEPT... MY MASTER HAD
SENT ME FOR SUM MEDITATION AND DUE TO MY CARELESSNESS I OVERSLEPT... I JUST SAW AROUND...I
COULDNT FIND ANY ONE... SO I CLOSED MY EYES BEFORE THE PYRE THAT WAS LIT AND STARTED MY
MEDITATION.... IT WAS QUITE A PEACEFUL ONE AND THERE WAS NO DISTURBANCE MIDWAY....NOW IT
MUST HAVE BEEN THREE O CLOCK EARLY MORNING.... I JUST OPENED MY EYES...I SAW AN OLD COUPLE
A MALE AND FEMALE SITTING OPPOSITE TO ME ON A BIG ROCK AND SMILING AT ME.... I GOT UP FROM
MY SEAT AND I PROSTRATED THEM....THEY GAVE ME SUM WATER TO DRINK FROM A VESSEL THEY
WERE CARRYING....NEXT 10 HOURS WAS NOTHING BUT A BLISS FOR THEY TAUGHT ME 'SHABDA AND
NADA DWANI RAHASYA' OF THE BIJAKSHARAS.... I PROSTRATED THEM AND THEY BLESSED ME BY KEEP
THEIR LEGS ON MY HEAD... I HAD THE PADA DEEKSHA OF SAGE AGASTYA AND LOPAMUDRA....AS THEY
LEFT I JUST TURNED AROUND TO SEE MAHARISHI RAJAR WAITING FOR ME WITH OPEN HANDS....HE WAS
VERY JOYOUS, HUGGED ME AND KISSED ME ON MY CHEEKS..

4. MASTER RAJAR USED TO SAY...EVERY ONE COMES TO REMIND THE OTHER OF SOME THING IN THEIR
LIFE....

5. ONE DAY MYSELF AND MY MASTER RAJAR HAD GONE IN AN AMBASSADOR CAR WITH ANOTHER
PERSON TO ATTEND A MARRIAGE IN KERALA...THE OTHER PERSON IN THE CAR WAS PESTERING THE
DRIVER TO DRIVE FAST SINCE IT WAS GETTING LATE FOR THE MARRIAGE....HE TOLD HIM DONT WORRY,
U WONT MISS THE MARRIAGE....ON THE WAY A GIRL WAS STANDING ON THE ROAD...RAJAR ASKED THE
DRIVER TO STOP THE CAR AND ASKED HER WHERE SHE WANTED TO GO...EXACTLY SHE WAS ALSO
GOING FOR THE SAME MARRIAGE..SHE BOARDED THE CAR......AFTER SOME TIME ONE BOY WAS
STANDING ON THE ROAD....HE ASKED THE DRIVER TO STOP THE CAR AND ENQUIRED WITH THE BOY AS
TO WHERE HE WANTED TO GO...THE BOY ALSO SAID HE WAS GOING TO THE SAME VENUE AS
OTHERS..HE ALSO BOARDED THE CAR...THE OTHER PERSON IN THE CAR WAS FURIOUS...WE REACHED
THE VENUE...LOT OF COMMOTION IN THE HALL...BOTH THE BOY AND THE GIRL WERE NOT PREPARED TO
MARRY EACH OTHER...NOW HE TOLD THE BOY AND THE GIRL TO GO UP AND STAND IN THE STAGE WITH
THE BRIDE AND THE BRIDEGROOM...THEN IT CAME TO LIGHT THAT THESE TWO WERE THE ONES WITH
WHOM THEY WANTED TO MARRY...THEN ALL GOT PACIFIED...RAJAR WAS MISSING...HE WENT OUT AND
WAVED HIS HAND AND A BUS CAME WITH THE RELATIVES OF THE BOY AND THE GIRL... ONCE AGAIN
RAJAR WAS MISSING...WHEN I LOOKED, I WAS ASTONISHED TO FIND MY MASTER MAHRISHI RAJAR LIKE
THE PRIEST SITTING AND PERFORMING THE MARRAGE RITUAL...HE JUST WINKED AND GAVE A BROAD
SMILE AT ME...EVEN TODAY WHEN I LOOK BACK, I WONDER AT MY MASTER RAJAR...JAI GURU DATTA...

Didi Chandini

1. ONE DAY I ASKED DIDI CHANDINI...MASTER WHY DO U OFTEN CALL ME 'KAALI'....SHE SMILED AND
SAID....RIGHT FROM MY YOUNGER DAYS I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED GODDESS KAALI....SHE IS EVERYTHING
TO ME... I SPEAK TO HER...I EAT WITH HER...I DANCE WITH HER...I SLEEP WITH HER...SHE IS THE VERY
SOURCE OF MY EXISTENCE...FOR THE FIRST TIME WHEN I SAW U, I SOME HOW FELT THAT SHE HAS CUM
IN YOUR FORM TO ME.... I STARTED LOVING U THE WAY I LOVED HER... I DIDNT WANT TO SEE ANY
DIFFERENCE...I LOOK AT U THE WAY I LOOK AT HER... I WAS MOVED AND I WAS IN TEARS...I JUST
PROSTRATED HER AND SHE HUGGED ME.....LORDS GRACE...

2. THE OTHER DAY I SAW AN OLD LADY CARRYING A BIG POT OF WATER...SHE WAS LITERALLY
STRUGGLING....I VOLUNTEERED TO LIFT IT...SHE GAVE A BIG SMILE AND SAID 'NO'...I ASKED HER
WHY?...SHE SAID TODAY U CAN DO THAT FOR ME.....WHO WILL DO IT EVERY DAY FOR ME? ITS BETTER I
DO IT ON MY OWN..A BIG LESSON I LEARNT..AFTER SHE LEFT I REMEMBERED THIS SMILE....I JUST
PROSTRATED IN THE DIRECTION IN WHICH MY MASTER HAD LEFT...DIDI CHANDINI....

Su - Yen

1. ONCE MYSELF AND SU YEN VISITED A DARGAH OF A GREAT SAINT CALLED SHIABUDEEN BABA SUM
WHERE IN INTERIOR RURAL U.P.. WE BOTH DRESSED LIKE THE 'PATHANS' WITH A CONICAL CAP ON THE
HEAD....WE BOTH SAT OUTSIDE THE DARGAH AND WERE BEGGING FOR ALMS....WE SAW A GREAT
MASTER CUMING WITH MANY OF HIS DISCIPLES ENTERING THE DARGAH...WHEN THEY WERE CUMING
OUT AFTER PRAYERS, AS USUAL I BEGGED THEM FOR ALMS...HE SMILED AT ME....SUDDENLY IT STRUCK
ME IT WAS MASTER SU YEN....HE WAS ALL LONG SITTING NEXT TO ME AND SUDDENLY HE ENTERS THE
DARGAH LIKE A MASTER WITH SUM DISCIPLES....I GATHERED COURAGE AND ASKED HIM...MASTER WHAT
LESSON IS THIS SUPPOSED TO TEACH ME? HE JUST SAID STUPID AND LEFT...SO I WENT INSIDE THE
DARGAH OFFERED PRAYERS AND CAME OUT...SUM ONE CALLED ME...WHERE R U GOING? STILL OUR
ALMS JOB NOT COMPLETED...I SAW SU YEN SITTING IN THE SAME PALCE WITH THE SAME CLOTHES ON
AND OUR BEGGING BOWL....SO I QUIETLY WENT AND SAT WITH HIM....MASTERS R MASTERS....REALLY I
ENJOYED WITH MY MASTERS....THEY WERE ALL AVADOOTAS...BEYOND ANY LOGIC OR EXPLANATION
BUT FULL OF LOVE AND COMPASSION..

2. AUSTRALIAN DESERT CAR RALLY IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA...MY CAR STOPPED DUE TO SOME ENGINE
PROBLEM SUM 800 KMS EAST OF PERTH......THEY TOWED MY CAR TO A NEARBY ROAD SIDE MECHANIC
SHOP...I WAS JUST READING A NEWSPAPER... THE MECHANIC SAID...THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND
THE ENGINE HAS CEASED... HE SAID HE HAS TO FIND SUM ALTERNATIVES SINCE HE DOESNT HAVE ANY
PISTON RINGS AVAILABLE FOR THAT MODEL AND DOESNT HAVE A LATHE TO DO THAT KIND OF A
WORK...THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY PHONE AVAILABLE THERE... SO I CALLED THE EMERGENCY
NUMBER AND ON THE OTHER SIDE I COULD ONLY LISTEN TO MY OWN VOICE REVERBERATING... THE
PHONE WAS OUT OF ORDER...I ASKED THE MECHANIC WHETHER HE CAN DROP ME AT SUM MOTEL
NEARBY FOR THE NIGHT STAY...THE MECHANIC SAID....U CAN STAY WITH ME HERE... I WILL READY UR
CAR IN 3 DAYS TIME....THE THREE DAYS WE SPOKE A LOT...HE COOKED FOOD FOR ME AND I COOKED
SUM VEGGIES FOR HIM......BUT NEVER EVER HE WENT NEAR THE CAR... I USED TO ASK HIM AND HE WILL
SAY HE WILL GET IT READIED WITHIN THE TIME SAID... ON FOURTH DAY MORNING... HE ASKED ME TO
START THE CAR... IT JUST STARTED.... HE ALSO SAT WITH ME AND WE DROVE BACK TO PERTH...HE
SMILED AT ME AND I SMILED BACK AT HIM AND SAID....THANK U MASTER... MASTER SU YEN....LORD OF
DECEPTION...

3. LONG TIME BACK....I WAS ON AN EXPEDITION IN SAHARA.... BOB ACCOMPANIED ME ON THE CAMEL
RIDE...BOTH OF US WERE WEARING THE ARAB COSTUME SINCE WE WERE ADVISED SO INVIEW OF
EXTREME CONDITIONS OF SAHARA... OUR GUIDE WAS AN ARAB SHEIKH GAFOOR....15 DAYS AND 14
NIGHTS OF THRILLING EXPERIENCE... SAW A LOT OF DESERT CREATURES WHICH HIDE IN THE
SAND.....THERE IS A WHOLE WORLD BELOW IN SAHARA... AFTER COMING BACK TO CAIRO BOB SAID I
HAVE SUMTHING FOR U...WHY NOT EAT IT? I SAID ...OH SURE BOB....HE MADE ME SIT ON THE TABLE AND
SERVED HOT HOT MASALA DOSA.... I WAS SURPRISED.... I ASKED BOB..'FROM WHERE THE HELL U GOT
IT'.... HE JUST SMILED... I WAS BACK IN INDIA... I RECEIVED A CALL FROM BOB....HE ASKED ME...'HI
SRI....HOWZ LIFE? WHEN SHALL WE PLAN THE SAHARA TRIP?... I JUST CONTAINED MYSELF AND
SAID...SHORTLY WE WILL MAKE IT BOB.... A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER, WHILE I WAS RETURNING FROM
BAHRAIN VIA DUBAI.... AT DUBAI AIRPORT WHEN I WAS WAITING FOR MY FLIGHT BACK TO
HYDERABAD...BOB CAME IN THE ARAB ATTIRE AND SAT BY MY SIDE....I SAID ...'BOB, HOW CUM U R
HERE'.... BOB SAID...'I JUST CAME TO GIVE U MASALA DOSA HOT HOT'.... AND HE SERVED FROM THE BAG
HE WAS CARRYING.... I ATE IT AND SAID....SO KIND OF U MASTER....MASTER SUYEN...LORD OF
DECEPTION.....

Matrudevobhava...

1. FOR ME LUCKILY 'MOTHER'S DAY' DOESNT MAKE IT A SPECIAL OCCASION....FOR ME EVERY DAY IS
MOTHER'S DAY...SHE IS THERE EVERY DAY WITH ME...ALLOWS ME TO PROSTRATE HER EVERY DAY,
EVERY OCCASION, EVERY MOMENT... ALWAYS ANY DOUBT FOR ME, BE IT SOCIAL, PHILOSOPHICAL,
DOMESTIC, OFFICIAL, EMOTIONAL...SHE GLADLY LISTENS TO ME AND OFFERS HELP... I AM ALWAYS
THANKFUL TO GOD TO HAVE BLESSED ME WITH A WONDERFUL MOTHER...SHE IS VERY LOVING & KIND
HEARTED... A WORKAHOLIC BY NATURE..EVEN AT THE AGE OF 75YEARS SHE NEVER STOPS WORKING... I
LEARNT 'GOVERNANCE' FROM HER... SHE IS INTELLIGENT AT THE SAME TIME CARING.. OUR
PROSTRATIONS AND SALUTATIONS TO ALL MOTHERS N THIS GLORIOUS DAY BY OFFERING
PROSTRATION AT MY MOTHER'S FEET...

2. BEFORE COOKING FOOD IN THE MORNING, A LITTLE BIT OF RAW GRAINS IS JUST THROWN ON THE
FLOOR OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN....THIS IS A NORMAL PRACTICE ESPECIALLY IN VILLAGES....THE HEN, THE
COCK, THE ANTS, THE INSECTS R CONSIDERED TO BE OUR ANCESTORS....IT SEEMS BEFORE YOU START
YOUR DAILY ROUTINE IN THE KITCHEN, AS A MARK OF DEDICATION TO THE ELDERS WHO R IN THE FORM
OF VARIOUS BEINGS ARE FIRST TAKEN CARE...WITH THEIR BLESSINGS THE DAY STARTS...EVEN TO DAY I
FIND MY MOTHER DOING THIS EVERY DAY MORNING ONCE SHE ENTERS THE KITCHEN TO START THE
DAY...

3. LAST MONDAY 18TH OF JUNE.. IT WAS LORDS GRACE TO BE AT LORD'S ABODE TIRUMALA FOR UDAYA
ASTHAMANA SEVA WHICH WAS ALLOTTED TO US ON THAT DAY....EARLY IN THE MORNING JUST
STANDING WITHIN 10 FEET FROM THE LORD AFTER SUPRABATHA SEVA FOR ALMOST 50
MINUTES...EVERY YEAR ONE DAY WE GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE WITH THE LORD THIS WAY...AS I JUST
CAME OUT OF THE MAIN SANCTUM SANTORUM I NORMALLY PROSTRATE MY MOTHER AS SHE IS THE
NIJA ROOPAM OF THE LORD TO ME...AS OF TODAY SHE IS THE UTSAVA MOORTHY OF THE LORD BEING
WITH ME ALL THESE YEARS... I TOUCHED HER FEET AND AS I TOOK MY FINGERS TO KEEP IT ON MY EYES
AND AS MY FINGERS CROSSED THE NOSE I COULD FEEL THE SRIPADA RENU OF THE LORD
VENKATESHWARA....I PROFUSELY THANKED GOD FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE....

Pitrudevobhava...

1. I VISITED MY NATIVE VILLAGE AFTER 25 YEARS....MANY PEOPLE CAME TO SEE ME..THEY WERE ALL
STANDING WITH REVERENCE AND TALKING TO ME....SUDDENLY AN OLD LADY AGED 80 YEARS
CAME.....ON SEEING ME SHE SAID OH...ITS THAT ENGINEER VIRARAGHAVAN'S SON WHO HAS CUM...

2. SANTOSH THATI LOST HIS GRANDFATHER...OUR PRAYERS FOR THE SOUL TO BE RAISED
TO HIGHER LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS......HE WAS PLUCKING BILVA LEAVES FOR SHIVA
POOJA ON A FRIDAY...HE SLIPPED AND WAS HOSPITALISED...HE LEFT....HIS ULTIMATE
AIM WAS TO REACH THE LORD'S FEET..
AND IT HAPPENED AS HE WAS GETTING READY TO PERFORM THE SHIVA
POOJA...PROBABLY HE WOULD HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRAYING THAT HE SHOULD DIE
PRAYING...WE DONT KNOW...IF EVERYTHING CAN BE REASONED OUT THEN 'GOD'
BECOMES MEANING LESS... I WILL TELL YOU MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE..MY DAD WAS A
HIGH RANKING GOVT.OFFICIAL IN THE STATE OF TAMILNADU..HE WAS AN ENGINEER BY
PROFESSION AND HIS PASSION WAS CONSTRUCTION, HIS BEING A CIVIL
ENGINEER...EVERY MORNING HIS PRAYER SCHEDULE WILL BE FOR 3 HOURS INCLUDING
SANDYA VANDANAM..HE WAS A SCRUPLOUSLY HONEST PERSON...WILL NEVER USE THE
OFFICE VEHICLE FOR PERSONAL PURPOSE..HE WILL TRAVEL BY GOVT. BUS TO
OFFICE...THE PHONE AT HOME IF USED FOR PERSONAL PURPOSE WILL PAY OFF HE BILL
FROM HIS POCKET...WILL BE BRINGING THE FILES HOME AND WORKING...I HAVE NOT
SEEN A HONEST PERSON TO HIS DEGREE IN MY LIFE...WORK WAS WORSHIP FOR HIM...HE
WILL ALWAYS PRAY THAT I SHOULD DIE DOING MY WORK AT WORK SPOT..AN YEAR AFTER
HIS RETIREMENT, HE WAS WORKING WITH A PRIVATE CONSTRUCTION FIRM..ON 23RD
SEPTEMBER 1988 AT 5.25PM, HE SLIPPED AND FELL BACKWARDS AND DIED ON THE
SPOT....LORD ANSWERED HIS PRAYERS...LORDS GRACE...

Prayogams

.
1. RECENTLY I CAME ACROSS A GUY WHO BECAME MY FRIEND IN FACE BOOK...TODAY IN PRIVATE
CHAT....
HE...GURUJI WHAT IS A PRYOGAM?
ME...TIME PASS....
HE...PLEASE GUIDE ME IN SPIRITUAL MATTERS..
ME...I DONT KNOW...
HE...ON YOUR SITE, THEY HAVE WRITTEN SO MANY THINGS ABOUT YOU....THEY HAVE SAID THAT ...'U R A
SIDDHA PURUSHA'....'U R A PRAYOGI'...'U R AN ARDENT UPASAKA OF.....'...
ME...SO MANY PEOPLE WILL WRITE SO MANY THINGS.... SO MANY PEOPLE WILL SAY SO MANY THINGS
ABOUT ME.... I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THAT... IF YOU HAVE BEFRIENDED ME ON FACEBOOK
SEEING ALL THAT WHICH IS BEING SAID ABOUT ME, THEN U R MISTAKEN.... I AM JUST LIKE ANY ONE
ELSE... I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS AND SHORTCOMINGS LIKE ANY ONE ELSE... IF YOU HAVE COME
WITH SOME EXPECTATIONS TO ME, U WILL SHORTLY KNOW THAT THEY MAY NOT BE FULFILLED...LORDS
GRACE...I ENJOY LIFE....THATS ALL ABOUT ME..HE IS CONFUSED....

2. PRAYOGAM....I DONT CALL IT AS WORK...I CANT CALL IT AS DUTY.....I CANT CALL IT AS MY LOVE....I
CANT CALL IT AS A BUSINESS....I CANT CALL IT AS CHARITY....WHAT SHALL I CALL IT
AS....YEAH...'PRAYOGAM IS MORE A PLAY TO ME'....LORDS GRACE...WE ENJOY IT...

3. EARLY MORNING, BIRDS STARTED CHIRPING AND I COULD SEE THE SUN TRYING TO PEEP OUT FROM
THE FAR AWAY MOUNTAIN TO THE EAST....IT WAS QUITE A TOUGH PREVIOUS DAY WHEN I WAS
TTOTALLY ENGROSSED IN DOING A PRAYOGAM.....I WAS JUST LYING BELOW A TREE AND WAS
ATTEMPTING TO TAKE A QUICK NAP FOR 15 MINUTES...MAY BE I SLEPT A LITTLE BIT MORE AND I COULD
FEEL SUMTHING LICKING MY LEFT EARS AND I WOKE UP TO FIND 'JUMA'... SHE IS A FULLY GROWN
SPOTTED DEER....I JUST GOT UP AND HUGGED HER...THEN SHE LEPT JUMPED AND STARTED
RUNNING...SHE IS VERY FAST AND I CANT RUN TO CATCH HER...SHE WENT NEAR A BUSH AND WAS
PEEPING OUT....IT LOOKED AS THOUGH SHE WAS CALLING ME...SO I WENT NEAR HER AND THEN SHE
STARTED WALKING SLOWLY INSIDE THE FOREST AND I FOLLOWED HER...AFTER ABOUT HALF AN HOUR
WE REACHED A SPOT WHERE THERE WERE THICK BUSHES AND TALL TREES....SHE HAD GIVEN BIRTH TO
3 SIBLINGS...I COULDNT UNDERSTAND THE REASON FOR HER SHOWING ME HER KIDS...AS I WAS ABOUT
TO LEAVE SHE CAUGHT HOLD OF MY DHOTHI AND SAT.....I COULD UNDERSTAND THAT SHE DOESNT
WANT ME TO LEAVE....AS I WAS DECYPHERING TO FIND OUT THE REAL REASON BEHIND IT, I SAW A
VULTURE SITTING ON A TREE TOP....THEN IT STRUCK ME AND LOOKED AT HER KIDS...TWO WERE
HEALTHY AND ONE WAS IN A PRETTY BAD SHAPE....NORMALLY VULTURES EAT THE DEAD...THEY DONT
KILL....THERE IS A ROOT CALLED 'MRIGA SANJEEVANI' WHICH HELPS ESPECIALLY DEERS IN AN
EMERGENCY....SO I SAT AND PRAYED TO VANA DURGA TO SHOW ME A WAY....WHAT A SURPRISE THE
DEER AND ITS SIBLINGS WERE ONLY SITTING UNDER THE MRIGA SNJEEVANI PLANT...I JUST TOOK A
PLANT CUT THE ROOT...I CRUSHED THE ROOT AND GAVE THE JUICE THRU THE MOUTH.....UP IN THE SKY
I COULD SEE THE VULTURE FLYING AWAY....LORDS GRACE...

4. WE THINK IN LIFE 'TO EAT' AND 'TO SLEEP' IS EASIER....MOST OF ARE NOT ABLE TO PROPERLY EAT OR
SLEEP...I KNOW OF A CASE WHERE HE HAD PROBLEM OF LIVER AND INSOMNIA...HE COULD NEITHER EAT
WELL NOR SLEEP...EVEN IF U R MEDICALLY ALRIGHT, HOW MANY DAYS DO WE REALLY ENJOY THE
FOOD AND EAT? SIMILARLY HOW MANY DAYS U REALLY SLEEP? MOST OF THE YOUNGSTERS NOW A
DAYS WORK IN CALL CENTRES AND THEY DONT SLEEP AT NITE AND THEY SLEEP DURING DAY...THAT
TOO VERY DISTURBED SLEEP...TODAY 'TO EAT' GOOD FOOD AND 'TO SLEEP' ITSELF IS A BIG BOON IN
YOUR DAY TO DAY LIFE....SO I SAY PLEASE 'EAT' WELL AND 'SLEEP' WELL...WHEN I SAY LIFE IS TO EAT
AND SLEEP WELL, PEOPLE DONT UNDERSTAND ME AND LAUGH AT ME....IN FACT I PITY THEM THAT THEY
DONT HAVE TIME TO EAT AND SLEEP.....LET US START DOING THIS....LET US TAKE AN SOLEMN PLEDGE
THAT WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE ON FOOD AND SLEEP....PEACE WILL AUTOMATICALLY
FOLLOW...OTHERWISE WE BEHAVE VERY AGITATED...NO PROPER FOOD OR SLEEP.....WHEN WE CANT
DO THESE THINGS WHICH R SIMPLE PROPERLY IN LIFE, WHY BE BOTHERED ABOUT WHAT I DO IN THE
FORM OF PRAYOGAMS?

5. 'MANAGHAJAKALAJURAVARADHIPATHURAMALUDASHEVAGARANA' IS THE NAME OF A PRAYOGAM

WHICH IS DONE TO WARD OF EVIL SPIRITS ( MORE EXISTS IN THE FORM OF POLLUTED THOUGHTS)..TO
DO THIS PRAYOGAM IT TAKES 3 DAYS..AFTER THIS PRAYOGAM ONE HAS TO CHANT 10,00,008 TIMES
GAYATHRI MANTRA, PERFORM 1,00,008 TIMES OF MANTRA AS HOMAM AND 10,008 TIMES
THARPANAM....THARPANAM HAS TO BE DONE IN MILK AND JAGGERY MIX...

6. SUM ONE ASKED ME HOWZ IT THAT U KEEP DOING PRAYOGAMS DAY AND NIGHT...
PHAT CAME THE REPLY...
AAKALI RUCHI YERUGADHU
NIDRA SUKAMU YERUGADHU
VALAPU SIGGU YERUGADHU....
HOPE U UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEANT?

7. SUM ONE ASKED ME ...CAN U NOT TEACH PRAYOGA TO ME?

I SAID....YOU CAN ONLY BE TAUGHT WHAT YOU HAVE EARS TO HEAR AND EYES TO SEE AND A BRAIN TO
UNDERSTAND WHAT U CAN UNDERSTAND...I SMILED...
HE COULDNT CATCH MY POINT...CAN U?

8. SUM ONE TOLD ME...GURUJI I WOULD LIKE TO LEARN PRAYOGAMS... I DONT MIND LOOSING MY LIFE IN
THE PROCESS IF NEED BE....
I SAID....THE BIGGEST PRAYOGAM IS TAKING CARE OF YOUR AGED PARENTS, WIFE AND CHILDREN....IN
THE PROCESS I WOULD LIKE U TO LIVE A LONG LIFE WITH PLENTY OF PROSPERITY AND PEACE...

9. THE LIFE OF A PRAYOGI IS SUM WHAT MYSTERIOUS AND DIFFICULT TO EXPLAIN THE THOUGHTS AND
EMOTIONS THAT RUN ACROSS AT THAT POINT OF TIME WHEN HE CONFRONTS A SOUL.... DEEP DOWN
HE KNOWS VERY WELL THE MOMENT IN EVERY CASE IS A UNIQUE ONE AND EVERY CASE IS FRESH AND
NEW... IT TEACHES SUM THING NEW EVERY OCCASION.......THERE IS NO COMMONALITY... CALL IT BY ANY
NAME, THE WORLD OF SPIRITS, THE MANES, THE PITRUS, THE YAKSHAS, THE KINNERAS, THE
GANDHARVAS, THE APSARAS AND ALL OTHER CELESTIAL COSMIC FORCES IS SO UNIQUE AND CANNOT
BE EXPLAINED IN WORDS....WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS FOR ALL THIS I
SEARCH FOR WORDS AND IAM DUMB FOUNDED...JUST LIKE THE DUMB PERSON SEARCHING
HONEY.......LORDS GRACE I ENJOY MY LIFE AS A PRAYOGI....

10. DISCIPLE....GURUJI, WHY DO U TAKE SO MUCH PAINS TO DO PRAYOGAMS?...

ME..GOD GIVES HARDEST BATTLES TO HIS STRONGEST SOLDIERS...

11. IN LIFE U R TAUGHT TO DO A THING NEARLY RIGHT...MASTER'S GRACE....IN PRAYOGAM WE WERE

TAUGHT TO DO A THING EXACTLY RIGHT....

12. SUM PRAYOGAM...SO I WAS WEARING SUM GOLDEN RINGS IN MY FINGER...SUM ONE SAW THIS AND
ASKED ME...GURUJI WHY DO U WEAR ALL THIS?
ME...I SAID...SUSPENSE...JAMES BOND 007....
HE...PLEASE TELL ME GURUJI..
ME...GOLDFINGER..

Tantra

1. ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM...EVEN IF TANTRA IS MISUNDERSTOOD OR IF A TANTRIC IS

CONSIDERED AS A CHEAP TRICKSTER...JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE A DIFFERENT NOTION, WE
CANT LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG...BECAUSE ITS A JUNGLE CAT NOT AN ORDINARY
ONE....FURTHER A TANTRIC DOESNT NEED TO DEFEND HIMSELF...HE IS JUST WHAT HE IS....IF HE IS
UNDERSTOOD FINE...IF NOT STILL FINE....THERE IS NOTHING TO PROVE...TANTRA IS THE CORE OF
EXISTENCE...ITS THE EPICENTRE...ONE SHOULD BE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH TO GO DOWN THE THE
FUMING VOLCANO, RIGHT ACROSS THE BOILING LAVA AND GET IMMERSED WITH IT...I DONT SEE
THAT KIND OF A CALIBER ANY WHERE...
WHEN YOU DONT HAVE THE ELIGIBILITY,WHY DO U ASPIRE TO KNOW TANTRA OR WHAT WE
DO?..........CURIOUSITY + GREED = SELF DESTRUCTION....

2. DONT EXPERIMENT TANTRA.... UNLESS U HAVE A MASTER TO GUIDE YOU STEP BY

STEP...CERTAINLY ITS NOT IN THE BOOKS... B CAUTIOUS..

Guruji about Masters

1. WHEN A MASTER APPEARS....SO MANY THINGS HAPPEN....EGO IS CRUMBLED...MIND DOESNT

MANIPULATE ANY LONGER....THERE IS NOTHING TO PERFORM.....JUST SURRENDER AND NOTHING
ELSE....A SORT OF A DEEP GRATITUDE AND A SENSE OF BELONGING BONDED WITH UNCONDITIONAL
LOVE FLOWS FROM THE DISCIPLE TO THE MASTER...IF THESE THINGS DO NOT HAPPEN, IT MEANS THE
MASTER HAS NOT ARRIVED YET...

2. A MASTER IS UP THE MAST FLYING FREELY LIKE A FLAG...BUT STILL TIED TO THE MAST OF
GURUKULAM AND HENCE CALLED A MASTER...THE DISCIPLE STANDS DOWN LOOKS AT THE FLAG AND
SALUTES WITH RESPECT...SINCE HE/SHE IS IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING DISCIPLINED HE IS CALLED A
DISCIPLE...SRIDHARAAMRITHAM IS AN OPEN GROUP WHERE EVERY ONE CONVERGES...MAY BE A
DISCIPLE...MAY BE A FRIEND...MAY BE A PUBLIC...SO THE WAY A DISCIPLE LOOKS AT THE MASTER IS
DIFFERENT, THE WAY A FRIEND LOOKS IS DIFFERENT, THE WAY PUBLIC WILL LOOK WILL BE
DIFFERENT...SO NO HARD FEELINGS...THERE IS NOTHING WRONG IN ANALYSING A SUBJECT...WHERE IT
LEADS...WHAT IT CONVEYS TO EACH ONE MAY BE DIFFERENT... FINALLY THE MASTER LAUGHS...WHY?..
AT THE CONFUSION HE CREATES TO BRING THE ESSENCE OF TRUCH...ENJOY DEBATING..WITHOUT HAD
FEELINGS...NO DOUBT I ALWAYS RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REPLY OR NOT OR WHEN TO REPLY OR HOW
TO REPLY OR NO REPLY...FOR WHICH I HAVE MY OWN REASONS...LORDS GRACE ENJOY..

3. MASTER & DISCIPLE RELATIONSHIP IS A UNIQUE ONE AND HAS ITS OWN PRINCIPLES...ITS A GURU
KULAM.... MASTERS WORDS BECOME FINAL AND THE DISCIPLE PONDERS OVER HIS WORDS AND MELTS
HIMSELF TO SUIT THE MOULD MASTER HAS PREPARED FOR THE DISCIPLE....MOULDS SIZE AND
STRENGTH DEPENDS ON THE DISCIPLES ABILITY TO GRASP AND DIGEST...MASTER TRIES HIS LEVEL
BEST TO CONVEY...BUT STILL THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TRANSMITTER AND THE
RECEIVER...THATS WHY MASTER SAYS ABILITY TO GRASP AND DIGEST...TO UNDERSTAND THIS, THE
DISCIPLE SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERABLY TRAVELED WITH THE MASTER...THIS DOESNT CUM IN A DAY OR
A YEAR....IT MAY NOT COME EVEN AFTER MANY DECADES OF ASSOCIATION WITH THE
MASTER...DISCIPLE SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERABLY TRAVELED HAS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH
TIME...FURTHER MASTER IS NOT A FIGURATIVE PERSON OUTSIDE...HE IS THE SOUL AND SPIRIT OF YOUR
LIFE...INFACT DURING THE INITIAL DAYS WITH THE MASTER, DISCIPLE NEVER UNDERSTANDS WHAT HE
MEANS BECAUSE THE SUBJECT IS NEW AS WELL AS THE MASTER...ONE SHOULD KEEP
PONDERING...MASTER NEVER ANSWERS STRAIGHT...HE ALLOWS U TO THINK AND GIVES ENOUGH
FREEDOM FOR ONE TO COMPREHEND..EVEN TODAY I KEEP SEARCHING FOR THE MEANING OF MANY
THINGS WHICH MY MASTERS HAVE SAID....STILL PONDERING...PLEASE REMEMBER THE RELATIONSHIP IS
OUT OF PURE LOVE AND HENCE NOT SLAVERY....THATS WHY ITS SAID THAT WHEN ONE IS READY
MASTER ARRIVES MORE CONSCIOUSLY....WHEN ONE IS NOT READY MASTER IS THERE
PHYSICALLY..WHEN ONE IS CONSCIOUS THE MOULD IS READY AND THE MELTING PROCESS
AUTOMATICALLY STARTS...WHEN ONE IS UNCONSCIOUS, THE MOULD IS STILL READY BUT MELTING
PROCESS DOESNT START...PONDER...LORDS GRACE..

4.ONCE WHEN YOU ARE WITH A MASTER, HE IS YOUR MASTER TILL YOUR LAST...WHAT EVER HE SAYS IS
FINAL...UR BUDDHI, UR AHAMKAR, UR INTELLECT, UR EGO, UR PRIDE, UR WEALTH IS HIS.... U HAVE TO
SURRENDER TOTALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY... HERE IN FACEBOOK MANY ARE JUST PASS TIMERS AND
GOOD FRIENDS.... SO THEY DONT COME UNDER THAT CATEGORY....MERELY ADDRESSING AS GURU OR
MASTER DOESNT CONFER THE TITLE OF A 'SISHYA' OR DISCIPLE....THE IDEA OF THIS GROUP IS TO
CONGREGATE AND DISCUSS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN OUR DAY TO DAY LIFE,
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT GURUS, A LITTLE BIT ABOUT NATURE, A LITTLE BIT ABOUT GOD AND OF COURSE
PLENTY OF JOKES...SO THE IDEA IS NOT TO BE TOO SERIOUS....FOR LIFE ITSELF IS A BIG JOKE AND IS
WORTH LAUGHING AT...LORDS GRACE...

5. ....GURUJI, MY MASTER HAS TOLD ME THAT BY QUESTIONING ONE ATTAINS KNOWLEDGE AND
WISDOM....THATS THE WAY TO GOD...
ME...THEN WHY ARE YOU WASTING YOUR TIME HERE?
HE DIDNT UNDERSTAND...DO U?

6. VERY RARE TO FIND SOME ONE UNCONDITIONAL IN LOVE....IF YOU FIND ONE SUCH PERSON, PLEASE
BRING HIM/HER TO ME....I WOULD LIKE TO WASH THEIR FEET AND PROSTRATE THEM WITH
REVERENCE... FOR THEY ARE MY MASTERS..

7. A MASTER AND HIS DISCIPLE WERE JUST WAITING FOR A RIVER BASKET TO CROSS A SMALL RIVULET
WHICH WAS ONLY HIP DEEP....JUST THEN A BEAUTIFUL GIRL CAME AND STOOD BY THE SIDE...SHE ALSO
WANTED TO CROSS THE RIVULET...THE MONK SAW THE GIRL AND SMILED AT HER...SHE TOO SMILED
BACK...THE DISCIPLE WAS TAKEN ABACK BY THE MASTER'S BEHAVIOR...AFTER SUM TIME THE MONK
ASKED THE GIRL WHETHER HE CAN LIFT HER AND TAKE HER ACROSS THE RIVER SINCE WATER WAS
ONLY HIP DEEP....SHE SAID BY ALL MEANS....HE TOOK HER ACROSS HIS ARMS AND WADED THRU THE
WATER AND DROPPED HER ON THE OTHER SIDE...SHE THANKED HIM...SMILED AT HIM...THE DISCIPLE
WAS VERY FURIOUS...HE THOUGHT THE GIRL COULD HAVE VERY WELL WALKED ACROSS THE
RIVER...WHERE IS THE NECESSITY FOR THIS OLD FELLOW TO TOUCH HER AND LIFT HER....AM I WITH A
REAL MASTER OR IS HE A WOMANISER....THEY WERE WALKING UP TO A VILLAGE...THE DISCIPLE COULD
NOT CONTAIN HIMSELF AND ASKED THE MASTER...MASTER CAN I ASK U A DOUBT? THE MASTER SAID
YES PROCEED... WHERE IS THE NEED TO TOUCH A GIRL AND LIFT HER....U R 70 YEARS OLD....SHE COULD
HAVE CROSSED ACROSS THE WATER LIKE U AND ME....THE MASTER SMILED AND ASKED...I HAVE
DROPPED THE GIRL ON THE BANKS OF THE RIVER...R U STILL CARRYING HER?

8. THE MASTER AND THE DISCIPLE WERE WALKING IN A HILLY AREA...THE MASTER SAW A HUGE ROCK
AND ASKED THE DISCIPLE...WHAT IS THIS...THE DICIPLE REPLIED ROCK....THE MASTER ASKED IS IT
HEAVY....THE DISCIPLE SAID YES...HOW DO U KNOW THAT ITS HEAVY WHEN U HAVE NOT LIFTED...IS IT A
PROJECTION OF MIND.....THE DISCIPLE SAID YES....THEN THE MASTER LAUGHED AND ASKED...WHY R U
CARRYING SUCH A HEAVY OBJECT AND MOVING AROUND....

9. ONCE THE MASTER HAS ARRIVED, DONT LOOSE TIME...SURRENDER TOTALLY AT THE FEET OF THE
MASTER....THAT'S THE SECRET TO ETERNAL JOY...

10. I HAPPENED TO SPEAK TO SUM ONE VERY RECENTLY...SHE WAS ASKING ME..WHO IS HER GURU AND
WHETHER I AM HER GURU...I CAN ONLY LAUGH AT HER AND PITY HER....IN THIS WORLD EVERY OBJECT
TEACHES SOME THING OR THE OTHER.... HOW SO EVER MINUTE IT MAY BE, WE CAN LEARN SOME
THING..SO THE ENTIRE WORLD IS THE GURU...WHEN YOU ARE READY, THE GURU ARRIVES...WHEN U R
READY, U UNDERSTAND THE SUBTLE MEANING OF THE REALITY AND IT IS PASSED ON BY ALL THAT IN
THE NATURE TO YOU...THATS THE DIRECTION U GET....U HAVE TO WALK THE DISTANCE...LUGGAGE FREE
TRAVEL IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE AND ITS THEIR WITH U...WHEN THE TIME COMES U GET ATTUNED TO
IT...EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE WHEN THE MIND SURRENDERS THE EGO....U CAN FIND EVERY OBJECT
YOU COME ACROSS WILL GUIDE YOU AS A GURU...THE PROBLEM IS YOUR EGO AND PRIDE... THE
PROBLEM IS YOUR GREED... THE PROBLEM IS UR DIFFIDENCE.... THE PROBLEM IS YOUR LACK OF FAITH
AND SO ON AND SO FORTH... INQUIRY IS BETTER THAN ENQUIRY... PLEASE REMEMBER I AM NOT A
SANYASI...I AM A GRUHASTHA WITH FAMILY AND KIDS......THE PROBLEMS ARETHE SAME FOR YOU AND
ME... LORDS GRACE AND MASTER'S BLESSINGS, FREE OF EGO, I AM FLYING LIKE A DRY LEAF...I NEVER
RESIST A CHANGE...ALL MY ACTIONS ARE CHOICELESS....WHEN WE CAN DO IT, YOU ARE IN NO WAY
INFERIOR TO ME...U TOO CAN MAKE IT...FIRST BRING IN THE ATTITUDE OF NON DOER SHIP AND LIVE A
LIFE OF CHOICELESSNESS.. PLEASE DO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING IN THE NAME OF GOD...U CAN SEE
MIRACLES FOR YOURSELF....THE POINT IS NOT WHETHER ANY ONE IS YOUR GURU OR NOT...THE POINT
IS WHETHER YOU CAN FEEL THE GURU IN EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING YOU SEE....LORDS GRACE...

11. THE VERY FUNCTION OF THE MASTER IS TO INSTILL THAT KIND OF AN ENERGY IN HIS DISCIPLE,
SUCH A MAGNETIC FORCE THAT U R DAY BY DAY PULLED IN TO IT AND SLOWLY THE EGO SELF STARTS
DISAPPEARING AND U HAVE BECOME ONE WITH THE COSMIC EXISTENCE OF REALITY....SOME HOW IF
THIS HAPPENS I WILL CALL IT REAL DEATH....

12. NO MASTER...NO TEACHER...NO SCRIPTURE.....NO BOOK....CAN GIVE YOU THE TRUTH....U HAVE TO
SALVAGE IT BY LIVING A TOTAL LIFE, DEVOID OF PERFECTIONS & IMPERFECTIONS, RIGHT & WRONG,
GOOD & BAD ETC., AT BEST THE MASTER OR THE TEACHER OR THE SCRIPTURE OR THE BOOK CAN
POINT TOWARDS THE DIRECTION....BUT PLEASE REMEMBER U ONLY HAVE TO TRAVEL THE DISTANCE...

13. NOT ALWAYS WE UNDERSTAND WHAT A MASTER SAYS....SO THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE MASTER
TO SAY...SO HE SAYS....BUT THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND HAS NOT COME FOR US TO
UNDERSTAND...WHEN THE TIME COMES WE UNDERSTAND..SUM TIMES THE TIME MAY BE SO, THAT WE
MISUNDERSTAND TOO...LORDS GRACE...

MASTER'S WORDS SUM TIMES CUMS WITH A PACKAGING... REMOVE THE PACKING AND LOOK INSIDE
FOR THE GIFT.......

14. SOME ONE ASKED ME...GURUJI U DONT FOLLOW WHAT U TEACH....WHY? I SAID IF I FOLLOW WHAT I
TEACH THEN I AM A TEACHER....WHEREAS WE R MASTERS ...WE NEVER FOLLOW WHAT WE PREACH....I
SMILED AND SAID....THE AUTHOR OF THE BOOK NEED NOT READ THE BOOK....KRISHNA'S BHAGAVAD
GITA IS FOR ARJUNA AND LIKES BUT NOT APPLICABLE TO KRISHNA....

15. THE MOST DANGEROUS IS THE 'MASTER'...WITH A TEACHER IT IS COMPARITIVELY EASIER...THE

TEACHER PREACHES AND PRACTICES WHAT HE TEACHES....THE MASTER NEVER PRACTICES WHAT HE
PREACHES...FURTHER HE NEVER CORRECTS YOU EVEN WHEN YOU ARE AT FAULT...HE MAKES YOU TO
EXPERIENCE LIFE THE WAY IT COMES AND DOESNT OFFER MUCH SOLACE... MANY TIMES HE WILL BE
STRAIGHT IN HIS REPLY AND IT MAY SOUND RUDE...HE IS NOT DIPLOMATIC AND DOESNT OBSERVE ANY
NICETY... HIS WAYS ARE REBELLIOUS AND CANNOT BE UNDERSTOOD... HE IS AN AVADHOOTHA...
TEACHER TEACHES GOOD AND BAD, RIGHT AND WRONG ETC., BUT MASTER GOES BEYOND GOOD AND
BAD, RIGHT AND WRONG ETC.,.... PEOPLE OFTEN CONFUSE BETWEEN A TEACHER AND A MASTER......TO
FOLLOW THE TEACHINGS OF A MASTER, ONE NEEDS TO BE VERY COURAGEOUS AND REBELLIOUS
TOO...MASTER MAY NOT CONFORM TO CERTAIN DOGMAS OF THE RELIGION...BUT CERTAINLY HE IS
RELIGIOUS IN HIS OWN WAY AND THAT CANNOT BE UNDERSTOOD BY NORMAL PEOPLE....ONE NEEDS TO
BE BLESSED WITH A HOLISTIC VISION TO HAVE A BIRD'S EYE VIEW OF MASTER'S ACTIONS...LORDS
GRACE..

16. IF MASTER'S WORDS HURT U....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

IF U DOUBT A MASTER...HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER....

IF U FIND ANY ACT OF A MASTER AS SUSPICIOUS....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER..

IF U FIND IT DIFFICULT TO CONVEY YOUR FEELINGS TO A MASTER....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

IF MASTER REPRIMANDS UR ACTION AND IT HURTS YOU....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

IF U HAVE RESERVATIONS AND UR MIND CONVEYS ONLY A PART OF YOUR FEELING AND NOT THE
WHOLE....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

IF U FEEL MASTER IS EGOISTIC....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

IF U CANNOT TRANSLATE THE WORDS OF THE MASTER IN TO REALITY IN DAY TO DAY LIFE.....HE IS NOT
YOUR MASTER...

IF U FEEL DEPRESSED AFTER TALKING TO A MASTER .....HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER..

IN CASE U FALL UNDER ANY OF THESE CATEGORIES...KICK THE MASTER AND SEARCH FOR THE
DATTA....THE ETERNAL GUIDE...THE MASTER FOR U...

17. NAROPA WAS A GREAT SANSKRIT SCHOLAR AT THE NALANDA UNIVERSITY..WHEN ONE DAY AS HE
WAS IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THE SAYAM SANDHYAVANDANA HE SAW A BIG SHADOW ON THE
GROUND AND SAW AN OLD LADY WAITING FOR HIM BEHIND....SHE ASKED HIM TO COMPLETE HIS
PRAYERS....AFTER COMPLETION SHE ASKED HIM DO U UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF ALL THE WORDS
AND TRANSLATE THEM IN TO ACTION WHILE PRAYING OR U JUST RECITE THE MANTRAS? NAROPA SAID I
JUST RECITE THE MANTRAS.....SHE STARTS LAUGHING AND NAROPA IMMEDIATELY CHANGES HIS STAND
AND SAYS I UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF ALL THE WORDS AND TRANSLATE THEM IN TO ACTION
WHILE PRAYING...NOW THE OLD LADY STARTS CRYING INCONSOLABLY....NAROPA IS PERPLEXED BY
HER ACTION AND ASKS THE REASON FOR HER LAUGHTER AND SUBSEQUENT CRY....SHE SAID WHEN U
SAID U DO NOT KNOW, I WAS VERY HAPPY THAT BRAHMINS IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD SPEAK TRUTH
AND I LAUGHED ON HEARING THE TRUTH FROM THE MOUTH OF A BRAHMIN....WHEN U SAID I KNOW, I
THOUGHT WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO BRAHMINS...OH MY GOD....THEY HAVE BECOME LIARS AND
CHEATS....SO THIS MADE ME TO CRY......NAROPA PROSTRATED THE OLD LADY AND SAID I AM
NAROPA...PLEASE ACCEPT ME AS UR DISCIPLE MASTER....THE OLD LADY SAID...I AM VIMALAKRUTI THE
SISTER OF TILOPA....THE GREAT TILOPA IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN BE UR MASTER...GO TO
HIMALAYAS...NAROPA ASKED WHERE CAN I FIND HIM.....VIMALAKRUTI SMILED AND SAID KEEP
WANDERING IN THE HIMALAYAS...WHEN THE TIME COMES HE WILL FIND U...ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND
HIM....NAROPA LEFT FOR THE HIMALAYAS..

18. AESOP FABLE....MY MASTER'S WAY....

A JACKAL WAS CONTINUOUSLY JUMPING UP TO TASTE THE BUNCH OF GRAPES HANGING DOWN FROM
THE VINE....FINALLY IT COULDN'T REACH THE GRAPES...IT COMMENTED...'I DONT NEED THESE
GRAPES....FOR THEY WILL BE SOUR'..AND GOES AWAY....

JACKALS IN FACT LIKE SOUR GRAPES....IT SEEMS ALL THE ANIMALS WERE WATCHING THIS....IT DIDN'T
WANT TO REVEAL ITS TRUE IDENTITY... IT DIDN'T WANT THE ANIMALS TO KNOW IT IS A JACKAL....HENCE
IT SAID THE GRAPES R SOUR....

SOMETIMES THE JACKAL IN US, MAKES US TO MAKE SUM STATEMENTS, BEFORE OTHERS TO JUST
CONCEAL THE REAL INTENTIONS AND OUR TRUE IDENTITY OF BEING A JACKAL...
19. MASTER IS LIKE A KALPA VRIKSHA....IT SEEMS MOST OF THE TIME WE GO TO HIM AND ASK FOR
SNUFF OR PEPPER DECOCTION THOUGH THAT TOO WILL STAND GRANTED..

20. HYAKUJO THE CHINESE ZEN MASTER USED TO LABOR WITH HIS PUPILS EVEN AT THE AGE OF 80
TRIMMING THE GARDENS, CLEANING THE GROUNDS, PRUNING THE TREES....THE PUPILS FELT SORRY
TO SEE THE OLD TEACHER WORKING SO HARD, BUT THEY KNEW HE WOULD NOT LISTEN TO THEIR
ADVICE TO STOP, SO THEY HIS AWAY HIS TOOLS..THAT DAY THEMASTER DID NOT EAT...THE NEXTDAY
HE DID NOT EAT, NOR THE NEXT....'HE MAY BE ANGRY BECAUSE WE HAVE HIDDEN HIS TOOLS' THE
PUPILS SURMISED...'WE HAD BETTER PUT THEM BACK'...THE DAY THEY DID THE TEACHER WORKED AND
ATE THE SAME AS BEFORE...IN THE EVENING HE INSTRUCTED THEM ' NO WORK NO FOOD'....

21. MASTER TANZAN ENJOYED LIVING LIFE....HE NEVER CONTROLLED HIS THOUGHTS....HE NEVER
SPOKE BIG WORDS LIKE CONTROL OF MIND....HIS TEACHINGS WERE VERY SIMPLE....LIVE THE WAY U
FEEL TO LIVE LIFE AND GO A LITTLE BIT BEYOND TO SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL THE LIFE IS...HE USED TO
DRINK A LOT AND MAKE LIFE MERRIER IN HIS OWN WAY...HE WAS ONE OF THE BEST ZEN MASTERS....ON
THE LAST DAY OF HIS LIFE, HE WROTE 80 POST CARDS TO MANY KNOWN PEOPLE....IT READ AS UNDER...

I AM DEPARTING FROM THIS WORLD AT 6 PM...

THIS IS MY LAST ANNOUNCEMENT...

HE ATTAINED SAMADHI THE VERY SAME DAY AT 6PM....

22. ONCE THERE WAS A GREAT MASTER BY NAME O-OKA WHO WAS ALSO A JUDGE IN A COURT....ONE
DAY A CASE CAME TO HIS COURT....A TRADER WHO WAS CARRYING 50 ROLLS OF COTTON TOOK REST
AND WAS SLEEPING NEAR A STONE BUDDHA STATUE..WHEN HE WOKE UP HE FOUND ALL THE COTTON
ROLLS MISSING...O-OKA SAID...I KNOW THE REAL THEIF...IT IS THAT STONE BUDDHA....BUDDHA WHO IS
SUPPOSED TO GUARD AND PROTECT PEOPLE AND THEIR PROPERTY IS BUSY STEALING...PLEASE
ARREST HIM AN BRING HIM TO THE COURT....THE STONE BUDDHA WAS ARRESTED AND BROUGHT TO
THE COURT...THE PEOPLE WHO HAD GATHERED IN THE COURT STARTED LAUGHING AT THIS..O-OKA
SAID...SINCE U PEOPLE R LAUGHING AT ME, ITS NOTHING ELSE BUT CONTEMPT OF COURT...WITHIN TWO
DAYS ALL OF U SHOULD BRING A ROLL OF COTTON TO THE COURT OTHERWISE U WILL BE ARRESTED
FOR CONTEMPT....ALL BROUGHT A ROLL OF COTTON...IN THAT ROLL THE TRADER WHO LOST COTTON
COULD IDENTIFY ONE ROLL OF COTTON AS FROM THE ROLLS OF COTTON STOLEN FROM HIM...THEREBY
THE THIEF WAS IDENTIFIED AND THE COTTON ROLLS RECOVERED FROM HIM...O-OKA ORDERED FOR
RETURNING THE OTHER COTTON ROLLS BACK TO THE TRADERS WHO BROUGHT IT....STONE BUDDHA
WAS INSTALLED BACK AT THE PLACE FROM WHERE ITWAS BROUGHT....NOW IT WAS THE TURN OF
MASTER O-OKA TO LAUGH AND SAID IN THE COURT....IT CANT BE TREATED AS CONTEMPT BY THE
PEOPLE..

23. I KNOW A MASTER...HIS STYLE IS NORMALLY ROUGH AND TOUGH....HE WAS VEXED WITH HIS
DISCIPLES...DURING ONE OF OUR MEET,

HE SAID...I WANT TO RETIRE FROM PUBLIC LIFE...

I SMILED AND SAID....THOUSANDS WILL BE SAVED...

HE LOOKED DISTURBED...

23. EVERY MASTER WORTHY OF HIS NAME DOESNT DISCLOSE MANY THINGS....THEY ALWAYS WORK
FOR THE WELFARE OF ONE AND ALL....TO THEM EVERYTHING IS UNIQUE AND THEY ENJOY LORDS
CREATION AS LORD BY HIMSELF....THOUGH THEIR ACTIONS CANNOT BE DECYPHERED , IT IS ALWAYS
FOR ALL ROUND PEACE..MASTER MANY TIMES WILL BE CRYPTIC IN HIS ANSWER....EVEN A JOKE WILL
CARRY A MESSAGE....TRY TO CATCH WHAT A MASTER IS HINTING...PONDER OVER HIS WORDS, JOKES,
ANECDOTES, SAYINGS, FACTS, STORIES....THE REAL TREASURE WILL BE HIDDEN AND WITH LORDS
GRACE U WILL UNEARTH IT..KEEP PONDERING...KEEP GROWING...BECOME ALERT AND
CONSCIOUS...LORDS GRACE..

24. DISCIPLE....MASTER..HOW MANY YEARS IT WILL TAKE TO MASTER YOGA IF PRACTICE FOR 12 HOURS
A DAY...

MASTER...I DUNNO...MAY BE 20 YEARS...

DISCIPLE...MASTER I DONT HAVE THAT KIND OF A TIME...INCASE I DO YOGA FOR 18 HOURS A DAY THEN?

MASTER....PROBABLY 40 YEARS...

25. MASTER & DISCIPLE RELATIONSHIP IS A UNIQUE ONE AND HAS ITS OWN PRINCIPLES...ITS A GURU
KULAM.... MASTERS WORDS BECOME FINAL AND THE DISCIPLE PONDERS OVER HIS WORDS AND MELTS
HIMSELF TO SUIT THE MOULD MASTER HAS PREPARED FOR THE DISCIPLE....MOULDS SIZE AND
STRENGTH DEPENDS ON THE DISCIPLES ABILITY TO GRASP AND DIGEST...MASTER TRIES HIS LEVEL
BEST TO CONVEY...BUT STILL THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TRANSMITTER AND THE
RECEIVER...THATS WHY MASTER SAYS ABILITY TO GRASP AND DIGEST...TO UNDERSTAND THIS, THE
DISCIPLE SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERABLY TRAVELED WITH THE MASTER...THIS DOESNT CUM IN A DAY OR
A YEAR....IT MAY NOT COME EVEN AFTER MANY DECADES OF ASSOCIATION WITH THE
MASTER...DISCIPLE SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERABLY TRAVELED HAS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH
TIME...FURTHER MASTER IS NOT A FIGURATIVE PERSON OUTSIDE...HE IS THE SOUL AND SPIRIT OF YOUR
LIFE...INFACT DURING THE INITIAL DAYS WITH THE MASTER, DISCIPLE NEVER UNDERSTANDS WHAT HE
MEANS BECAUSE THE SUBJECT IS NEW AS WELL AS THE MASTER...ONE SHOULD KEEP
PONDERING...MASTER NEVER ANSWERS STRAIGHT...HE ALLOWS U TO THINK AND GIVES ENOUGH
FREEDOM FOR ONE TO COMPREHEND..EVEN TODAY I KEEP SEARCHING FOR THE MEANING OF MANY
THINGS WHICH MY MASTERS HAVE SAID....STILL PONDERING...PLEASE REMEMBER THE RELATIONSHIP IS
OUT OF PURE LOVE AND HENCE NOT SLAVERY....THATS WHY ITS SAID THAT WHEN ONE IS READY
MASTER ARRIVES MORE CONSCIOUSLY....WHEN ONE IS NOT READY MASTER IS THERE
PHYSICALLY..WHEN ONE IS CONSCIOUS THE MOULD IS READY AND THE MELTING PROCESS
AUTOMATICALLY STARTS...WHEN ONE IS UNCONSCIOUS, THE MOULD IS STILL READY BUT MELTING
PROCESS DOESNT START...PONDER...LORDS GRACE..

26. TEACHERS OPEN THE DOOR AND TAKE U INSIDE...

MASTERS OPEN THE DOOR, BUT U MUST ENTER BY YOURSELF...

27. IN A MONASTERY THERE WERE A LOT OF BOOKS....THE MASTER WILL GIVE LECTURES TO THE
MONKS....THE MONKS DURING THE LEISURE HOURS WILL READ THESE BOOKS AND KEEP QUESTIONING
THE MASTER....ONE DAY SUDDENLY DURING THE NIGHT THE LIBRARY WENT IN FLAMES...NEXT DAY
MORNING THE MONKS WENT TO THE MASTER AND TOLD...MASTER ALL THE BOOKS WHICH HAVE BEEN
PRESERVED FOR CENTURIES WERE BURNT YESTERDAY NIGHT...

MASTER...YES I KNOW THAT...

MONKS...HOW DO U KNOW? U WERE SLEEPING....

MASTER...I ONLY BURNT THE LIBRARY...NOW I AM SERIOUSLY CONTEMPLATING AS TO HOW TO BURN

ALL THAT GARBAGE ACCUMULATED INSIDE YOUR MIND BECAUSE OF THE BOOKS...
MONKS...SUPPOSE MASTER U R NOT ABLE TO BURN THE GARBAGE INSIDE US, THEN WHAT HAPPENS....

MASTER SMILED AND SAID...I HAVE TO SEARCH FOR A NEW MONASTERY...

28. DISCIPLE...MASTER I WANT TO BE CLEVER ENUF TO GET ALL THAT MONEY...

MASTER....THEN U MUST B STUPID ENUF TO WANT IT...

29. TEACHERS FACE CHALLENGES AND MASTERS HAVE NONE....

30. MANY MASTERS HAVE COME IN TO THIS WORLD PACKED WITH RICH EXPERIENCES...WHATEVER
THEY SPEAK WILL ALWAYS BE VERY MEANINGFUL...BUT THE UNFORTUNATE SIDE IS THE
DISCIPLES....THOUGH THE TRANSMITTER IS POWERFUL THE RECEIVER IS DULL....THE MEANING OF IT
BEING UNDERSTOOD IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES WILL BE NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE..THE WORK
GIVEN IS 'BLOWING THE CONCH'....THE MELODY WHICH CUMS OUT SHOULD BE HEARD THE WAY IT
COMES OUT TO UNDERSTAND THE LYRIC BEHIND IT...UNLESS LORD BLESSES ONE AND ALL, WE ARE
SURE TO MISS THE MESSAGE OF THE MASTER...INFACT WHAT WE UNDERSTAND WILL BE
PREPOSTEROUS...

31. IN LIFE U R TAUGHT TO DO A THING NEARLY RIGHT...MASTER'S GRACE....IN PRAYOGAM WE WERE

TAUGHT TO DO A THING EXACTLY RIGHT....

32. ONE OF THE DISCIPLES OF BODHIDHARMA TOLD THE MASTER...MASTER, YESTERDAY NIGHT WHEN I
WAS SLEEPING BUDDHA CAME IN MY DREAMS...BODHIDHARMA SAID NEXT TIME U SEE BUDDHA KILL HIM
WITH A KNIFE...THE DISCIPLE ASKED...FROM WHERE WILL I GET THE KNIFE....BODHIDHARMA
SAID....FROM WHERE U GOT BUDDHA U WILL GET THE KNIFE TOO...

33. A Master is somebody not like a Duty Doctor where you visit him when you are not well. The relationship of the
Master and the Disciple is not that of the Doctor and the Patient. He is not there to solve problems. In fact the Master
himself will be a problem. He is for a higher knowledge called Wisdom. And when you move with him, you gain it over
a period of Time. And you have to observe. He demonstrates what do to, sometimes the master may demonstrate
what not to do also. You must be able to clearly discriminate between what to do and what not to do.

34. IF UR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR MASTER IS TRUE, U WILL NEVER GET HURT BY ANY OF HIS
WORDS....IF YOU FEEL HURT IT MEANS HE IS NOT YOUR MASTER...

35. LACK OF FAITH...

NORMALLY I AVOID MEETING SISHYAS OF OTHER GURUS INCASE I COME TO KNOW THAT THEY R
ALREADY IN A SCHOOL OF THOUGHT.....WHEN U R WITH A MASTER U SHOULD BE TOTAL WITH HIM AND
NOT GOING IN TO OTHER SUPERMARKETS....THEN IT UNDERMINES OUR FAITH IN HIM.... SUM TIMES I AM
NOT ABLE TO AVOID THESE CURIOUS PPL... ONE DAY WHEN MY AWARENESS LEVEL WAS LOW A SISHYA
OF ANOTHER GURU APPROACHED ME...AND AS HE WAS TALKING HE TOLD ME THAT HIS GURU USED TO
MATERIALISE AND GIVE HIM VIBHOOTI KUMKUM IDOLS ETC., I WAS VERY HAPPY TO HEAR THIS... SISHYA
HAVING SO MUCH FAITH WITH THE MASTER...RARELY WE SEE SUCH SISHYAS..THEN HE ASKED ME HOW
HE DOES THAT? I WAS SHELL SHOCKED... HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW ALL THAT... I TOO TRIED MANY
TIMES... I ONLY GOT SUM SWEAT THAT TOO DURING SUMMER WHEN I CLOSE MY FIST AND TWIST IT....I
TOLD HIM ITS NOT DECENT ON HIS PART TO QUESTION ABOUT HIS GURU TO ME... I TOLD HIM I COULD
HAVE REPLIED TO U HAD UR GURU GIVEN ME SOME TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER...PROBABLY HE IS
HOLDING THE COPYRIGHTS AND HE MAY NOT REVEAL IT... IF U LACK FAITH WITH A GURU, PLEASE DONT
INSULT HIM BY RAISING QUESTIONS ABOUT HIM OR HIS ACTIONS WITH OTHERS...JUST LEAVE
HIM....THATS IS MORE GRACIOUS... DONT BE A PSEUDO DISCIPLE..

36. WHEN U R NOT READY U FIND A TEACHER....

WHEN U R READY THE MASTER FINDS U.....

37. DURING MY COLLEGE DAYS ONE OF MY FRIENDS HAD A PRACTICE...WHENEVER HE USED TO ATTEND
MARRIAGES HE WILL GO WITH SUM OLD HAWAI CHAPPAL AND CUM BACK WITH A BETTER ONE...THIS
WAS GOING ON....MY MASTER USED TO SAY WHEN CHAPPAL IS GONE THEN SUM OF YOUR
KARMA/PRARABHDA IS GONE... HENCE I USED TO TELL HIM U HV DONATED UR KARMA/PRARABHDA TO
SUM ONE AND GOT AN UNKNOWN PRARABHDA TO YOURSELF... HE USED TO LAUGH THINKING THAT IT IS
A JOKE BECAUSE NEVER I CONVEY THINGS SERIOUSLY... MY NATURE IS LIKE THAT... NOW WHEN I MET
HIM LAST YEAR AFTER A GAP OF ALMOST 32 YEARS HE SAID ...U WERE RIGHT...I UNDERSTAND WHAT U
MEANT THOSE DAYS...A KNOWN DEVIL IS BETTER THAN UNKNOWN ANGEL...MY TORN CHAPPAL WOULD
HAVE BEEN BETTER THAN THE GUD ONES WHICH I BROUGHT...TODAY I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I AM
CARRYING IS MINE OR THAT OF ALL THOSE PPL...

38. AVADHOOTAS R WONDERFUL.... THEIR WAYS R MYSTERIOUS.... IT IS THE FIRM FAITH THAT
WHATEVER THEY DO, THEY DO IT FOR LOKA KALYANAM... THERE IS NEVER A THOUGHT OF SELF
THOUGH ONLY THE SELF DOES IT... THEY DONT CONFORM TO ANY SO CALLED POLICIES AND
PRINCIPLES... THEY CAN NEVER EVER BE DECYPHERED...THEIR ACTIONS R UNQUESTIONABLE... TOTAL
FAITH IS THE KEY TO B WITH THEM....

39. JUST LISTEN TO UR MIND....U WILL FIND THE TEACHER...

JUST LISTEN TO UR HEART...U WILL FIND THE MASTER...

40. WHEN I SEARCH MY MIND....I FIND MY LOGIC....MY CALCULATIONS...MY TRICKS...MY BUSINESS...SUM

TIMES EVEN SOME OF MY MY KIN AND KITH...
WHEN I SEARCH MY HEART...I FIND MY MASTERS AND OFCOURSE MY DISCIPLES...

41. THE TEACHER IS MORE FROM THE MIND....SO HE SAYS THIS IS RIGHT...THIS IS WRONG...DO THIS ...
DO THAT... DONT STAND THERE... GO THERE ... DONT GO THERE... ALL SORTS OF CONDITIONING IS
FROM THE TEACHER...
WHEREAS THE MASTER IS FROM THE HEART...HE JUST SMILES AT U... WHEN U ASK HIM CAN I DO THIS
HE SAYS ENJOY DOING IT...WHEN U SAY I CANT DO THIS HE SAYS ENJOY NOT DOING THAT...HE DOESNT
TAMPER WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE... HE WANTS U TO TRANSCEND TO BETTER LEVELS NOT THRU
AVOIDANCE BUT THRU INNATE EXPERIENCE.

Pitru Karmas

1. LORD IS CALLED MARGA BANDHU....AS UR SOUL LEAVES THE BODY HE IS UR

COMPANION...FRIEND...WHO GUIDES U....
ADI SHANKARA SAYS...
PRANA PRAYANA BHAVA BEEDHI SAMAKULASYA
SRI LAKSHMI NRUSIMHA MAMA DEHI KARAVALAMBAM...

2. SHAT TILA EKADASI (07/03/2013)...

MORE PRAYERS TO PITRUS ON THIS DAY...
SIX WAYS IN WHICH TIL (GINGELLY) IS USED ON THIS DAY...IT IS BELIEVED THAT SRI MAHAVISHNU IS
PLEASED WITH THIS PRACTICE AND HIS BLESSINGS HELP U TO LIVE A POMPOUS LIFE IN THIS WORLD
AND OCCUPYING A GOOD COSMIC CONSTELLATION IN THE NETHER WORLD...
1. TAKING BATH IN TIL WATER...THILA SNANAM...
2. GRINDING TIL AND APPLYING IT AS PASTE AFTER THE BATH...
3. TILA HOMAM AT HOME..
4. WITH TILAM AND WATER DOING THARPANAMS TO PITRUS..
5. TIL OR TIL OIL AS DAANAM TO A BRAHMIN...
6. TAKING TILANNAM... TIL BATH AS PRASADAM OF THE LORD...
DOING THIS SIX THINGS ON THE SHAT TILA EKADASI DAY EARNS THE BLESSINGS OF THE PITRUS....LORD
MAHA VISHNU IS IMMENSELY PLEASED...

3. FOR THOSE WHO FEEL LIFE IS A CHOICE, THE LEGEND SAYS.....

AFTER DEATH, THE JEEVA REACHES THE LOKA CALLED PITRU LOKA...HERE THERE IS A PALACE FOR
YAMA DHARMA RAJA...THERE WILL BE A COUNCIL HEADED BY YAMA....THERE R 12 MEMBERS INCLUDING
YAMA...CHITRAGUPTA WILL READ YOUR LIFE HISTORY TO THE AUGUST PANEL...THE 12 MEMBERS R...
1.YAMA DHARMA RAJA
2.DHARMADHIPAR...
3..DANADYAKSHAR..
4..DANANJAYAR,,
5..DHARMA GUPTAR..
6..DHARMA JEEVAR..
7..DHARMAGYAR..
8..DHARMA NANDANAR..
9..NEEDHI MARGAR..
10..ARTHA VADAR..
11..SATYAVAAN..
12..GYANA LOCHANAR..
SINCE WHILE LIVING LIFE, WE CLAIM WE R THE DOERS, WHAT ALL GOOD AND BAD WAS DONE BY US IS
EVALUATED...FINALLY A DECSION IS TAKEN ACCORDING TO THE MERITS OF THE CASE...

4. WE R ALL BORN WITH WINGS BUT WE PREFER TO CRAWL IN LIFE....

THE INNER MEANING OF THIS STATEMENT IS THE WONDERFUL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE DEVATAS
AND THE PITRUS... WHAT FLIES IS THE GARUDA WHICH IS THE DEVATA...WHAT CRAWLS IS THE
SNAKE..THE PITRUS... THOUGH THERE R WAYS AND METHODS FOR ONE TO LIVE A CHOICELESSLY
CONSCIOUS LIFE FULL OF AWARENESS, WHERE U GET TO KNOW THAT U R NOT THE DOER AND LORD IS
THE DOER, WE ALWAYS THINK WE R THE DOERS AND KEEP DOING THINGS WITHOUT THAT AWARENESS
OF NON DOER.. SO THE KARMA GETS ATTACHED AND UR JOURNEY IS LIMITED TO SHUTTLE SERVICE
BETWEEN THE BHOOLOKA AND PITRU LOKA....NEVER IT COMES TO THE MIND THAT WE R NOT THE DOER
AND LORD IS THE DOER...SO THAT U CAN ESCAPE THE KARMA ASPECT AND LIVE A JOYOUS LIFE AND
FLY OFF TO THE DEVA LOKA...SO THOUGH WE R ALL BORN WITH THE WINGS OF CHOICLESSLY BEING
CONSCIOUS TO BE AWARE OF NON DOERSHIP, WE PREFER TO CRAWL LIKE A SNAKE OWNING
RESPONSIBILITY OF DOERSHIP IN THE FORM OF KARMA....THIS IS WHAT RUMI MEANT ACCORDING TO
ME....

5. SWAMI PRANA DEV AND HIS DISCIPLE VEERA DEV LIVED A VERY ASCETIC LIFE...SWAMI PRANA DEV
TAUGHT VEDAS AND VEDANGAS TO VEERA.... VEERA WAS PRAISED AND LAUDED BY EVERY ONE FOR
HIS SCHOLARLY SKILLS....SLOWLY PRANA DEV BECAME JEALOUS OF HIS DISCIPLE VEERA DEV AND
STARTED FINDING FAULT WITH HIS ACTIONS IN THE MUTT...SO THEY WERE BUSY FIGHTING WITH EACH
OTHER....AT THE HEIGHT OF EMOTIONS THEY NEVER KNEW THE KIND OF ABUSIVE LANGUAGE THEY
WERE USING AGAINST EACH OTHER....ANOTHER SAGE BY NAME SREEVATHSAANGAR VISITED THE
ASHRAM...THEY DID NOT TAKE COGNIZANCE OF THE ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT SAGE
SREEVATHSAANGAR...THIS INFURIATED HIM AND CURSED THAT THEY BECOME CROWS IN THE NEXT
BIRTH AND KEEP FIGHTING...AFTER THEY REALISED THEIR MISTAKES THEY WERE PARDONED AND TOLD
THAT AFTER THEIR DEATH AS CROWS WILL REACH A PITRU CONSTELLATION CALLED 'SAMEERA' AND
LIVE THEIR PEACEFULLY FOR A FEW YEARS BEFORE BEING BORN AS HUMANS....
TODAY SUM ONE WAS DRIVING HIS MOTORCYCLE WITH HIS HELMET ON...AT 4.15 PM, AS HE WAS
DRIVING ONE CROW SCOOPED BEHIND ANOTHER CROW MISSED THE OTHER HITTING ITS BEAK ON
HELMET....INCIDENTALLY HE WAS PASSING BY A BURIAL GROUND AT THAT POINT OF TIME....
I SAY THESE TWO STORIES R CONNECTED...
A) WHY DID THE CROW ATTACK HIM?
B) WHY THE ATTACK WAS AT 4.15PM?
C) WHY DID IT HAPPEN WHEN HE WAS PASSING NEAR THE BURIAL GROUNDS?
D)IN THIS DRAMA OF FIGHT BETWEEN THE CROWS, HOW IS THIS MAN INVOLVED?
LET ME HEAR YOUR VIEWS ON THIS?
........................SWAMY PRANADEV AND DISCIPLE VEERA DEV WERE BORN AS THE CROWS AS A
SEQUENCE TO THE CURSE..SAGE SREEVATSAANGAR CAME THERE ON A BIKE...PRANADEV WAS
CHASING VEERADEV...PRANADEV NOTICED SRIVATSANGAR CUMING IN THE BIKE...HE WAS FILLED WITH
A LOT OF VENGEANCE... HE THOUGHT HE CAN HARM SRIVATSAANGAR.....THIS WAS BEING WATCHED BY
THE GURU OF SRIVATSAANGAR WHO IS AN AVADHOOTA....HE STARTED CHASING PRANADEV IN THE
FORM OF AN EAGLE (GARUDA)...DURING THE FIGHT IF SRIVATSAANGAR NEEDS TO BE SAVED IT SHOULD
BE NEAR THE BURIAL GROUND WHERE THERE WILL BE PITRUS, MANES,AKSHARAS IN ABUNDANCE WHO
WILL ASSIST THE AVADHOOTA IN HIS OPERATION...SO THE GARUDA WITH ALL POWER CRASHED IN TO
THE CROW AND AS IT FELL DOWN IT HIT THE HELMET......YESTERDAY AT 5.30 PM SWAMI PRANADEV
ATTAINED MUKTI...AT 6.14PM VEERADEV PASSED OFF...YESTERDAY AT 11.00 PM SWAMI PRANADEV WAS
BORN TO A COUPLE IN VARNASI...AT 11.15 PM VEERADEV WAS BORN IN PRAYAG, ALLAHABAD...LORDS
GRACE THE EAGLE TOOK A LITTLE BIT OF REST AROUND MIDNIGHT AFTER ALL THE DRAMA WAS
OVER...LORDS GRACE...DRAMA CONTINUES..

6. KANNAN OF DEVARMALAI HAS ASKED A QUESTION....

Q...MY FRIEND'S PARENTS R NOT PERFORMING THE YEARLY KARMA FOR THEIR ELDERS....MY FRIEND IS
VERY UPSET ABOUT THIS....SO CAN MY FRIEND PERFORM?
A...IT IS SAID THAT ONE'S DUTY ONE HAS TO PERFORM...I CANNOT PERFORM MY FATHER'S DUTY....MY
FATHER CANNOT PERFORM MY DUTY...KRISHNA SAYS IN BHAGAWAD GITA...'SWADHARMO NIDANAM
SHREYAHA...PARA DHARMO BHAYA VAHA'....
'BY DOING OUR DUTY LET DEATH BE THE PENALTY THEREOF...WE WILL DO OUR DUTY AND GRACEFULLY
ACCEPT DEATH AS THE GIFT, INSTEAD OF DOING SUM ONE'S DUTY AND FEARING THRU OUT LIFE'.....
THERE R SUM EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE....
1) IF A GURU SAYS ACCEPT THIS AND DO IT...IT CAN BE DONE...
I WOULD LIKE TO BRING TO THE NOTICE OF ALL MY FRIENDS AN INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED IN MY LIFE...
THROUGH MY GURU MAHARISHI RAJAR THOSE DAYS I KNEW A VEDIC PUNDIT BY NAME SRI SIVA
GURUNADHA SASTRY, WHO HAILED FROM A VILLAGE NEAR PARAMAKUDI , SOTH OF TAMILNADU, THOSE
DAYS... I USED TO MEET HIM VERY OFTEN TO GET TO KNOW THE INTRICACIES IN VEDAS...I USED TO
CALL ON HIM AS PER DIRECTIONS OF MY GURU RAJAR..... SUM HOW HE USED TO LIKE ME A LOT AND
USED TO VERY OFTEN SAY...'I WOULD BE GLAD IF U DO MY SAMSKARAM AFTER DEATH'....I USED TO
LAUGH AT THIS SINCE HE HAD 3 SONS AND 3 DAUGHTERS...
ONE DAY WHEN I WAS IN FOREST WITH MAHARISHI RAJAR, HE TOLD ME TO GO AND MEET SRI SIVA
GURUNADHA SASTRY AT HIS VILLAGE AND DO A DUTY WHICH I WAS EXPECTED TO DO....I COULD NOT
UNDERSTAND MY MASTER'S WORDS...I JUST LEFT AND CAME TO THE VILLAGE... HE HAD DIED THE
PREVIOUS NIGHT AND THE SIX CHILDREN WERE QUARELLING ABOUT HIS PROPERTY... HE HAD A LOT OF
SELF EARNED PROPERTY AND HE HAD WRITTEN A WILL WRITING THE ENTIRE PROPERTY IN THE NAME
OF SUM VEDA PATASHALAS , ORPHANAGES AND TO HIS KULA DEVATA... NOTHING HE HAD WRITTEN IN
THE NAME OF HIS KIDS...SO THE KIDS REFUSED TO PERFORM HIS FUNERAL....I GOT THE OPPORTUNITY
TO PERFORM HIS FUNERAL WHEN I WAS 18 YEARS OLD...PLEASE NOTE HERE THEN MY FATHER TOO
WAS ALIVE....
2) SINCE PARENTS R ALIVE ON THE THITHI DAY UR FRIEND CAN DO 'AAMAROOPENA HIRANYA
SHRARDHAM'....ONE PLANTAIN LEAF...ON THAT 2 KGS OF RICE, TWO KACHHA PLANTAIN
(VAZHAIKKAI)...200 GMS SEPPANG KIZHANGU...200 GMS...MOONG DHAL....200 GMS JAGGERY...ONE BRASS
OR COPPER TUMBLER WITH WATER...AND DAKSHINA WHICH IS AFFORDABLE, T0 BE GIVEN TO A
BRAHMAN ON THE THITHI DAY BY PRAYING TO THE ELDERS AND PROSTRATING THE BRAHMIN........
3) IN CASE UR FRIEND WANTS ME TO DO, I CAN DO AS A GURU ON THEIR BEHALF...BUT I NEED DETAILS...
HE HAS TO BEAR THE COST PART SINCE HE HAS TO SPEND FOR HIS FOREFATHERS AND NOT ME...
OTHER THAN MY FATHER'S SHRARDHAM, I ALMOST GET DONE 56 SHRARDHAMS IN A YEAR FOR PEOPLE
KNOWN TO ME OR WHERE EVER I HAVE DONE THE DEHA SMASKARAM...LORDS GRACE...

7. ITS AN AGE OLD BELIEF THAT OUR FOREFATHERS VISIT US IN MANY FORMS....ONE SUCH FORM IS THE
CROW...SOME HOW I STRONGLY BELIEVE IN THS...EVERY DAY WE CAN MAKE IT A POINT TO OFFER A
BALL OF COOKED RICE ADDING SOME GHEE AND BLACK GINGELLEY (TIL), IN THE MORNING AFTER
OFFERING THE FOOD TO LORD AND BEFORE OUR EATING....U CAN PLACE IT IN THE TOP OF YOUR
APARTMENTS OR IN THE BALCONY OR WINDOW SILLS, OR ANY OTHER PLACE WHERE USUALLY CROW
COMES....BY FEEDING THE CROWS ITS BELIEVED THAT THE FOREFATHERS ARE SATISFIED AND BLESS
US AND THE FAMILY...FOREFATHERS BLESSINGS IS VERY MUCH NEEDED TO BE JOYOUS AND PEACEFUL
IN LIFE...LORDS GRACE...

8. MY PRANA LEAVES THE BODY, LORD I MAY BE SCARED, BUT I KNOW FULLY WELL THAT MY LORD
LAKSHMI NRUSIMHA WILL NOT ALLOW THAT CONDITION TO PERSIST...U WILL CERTAINLY HOLD MY HAND
AND LEAD ME... HENCE THERE IS NO NECESSITY TO FEAR DEATH...

9. TRUTH IN LIFE IS....ONCE U R BORN....IT LOOKS LIKE....U R WAITING FOR DEATH.... ALL OTHER THINGS
R TRANSITORY..

10. ABOUT 30 YEARS BACK THERE WAS A VERY FAMOUS PUROHIT...HE WAS A VERY SINCERE
BRAHMIN...HE HAD THREE SONS AND THREE DAUGHTERS...HE ATTAINED SHIVA LOKA PRAPTHI WHEN HE
WAS 80 YEARS OLD... HE USED TO LIKE ME....HE WAS ONE OF THE PUNDITS WHOM I USED TO RESPECT
A LOT.SUM HOW HE USED TO ALWAYS SAY..'WISH I HAD A SON LIKE U...A PRAYOGI WHO WILL PERFORM
MY FUNERAL RITES..'..A VERY SINCERE AND HUMBLE MAN...THE DAY HE DIED I WAS NEAR HIS TOWN...I
HEARD THE NEWS AND WENT THERE...HIS KIDS WERE FIGHTING....HE HAD SUM SELF EARNED
PROPERTIES WHICH HE HAD DONATED TO SUM VEDA PAATA SHALA AND HAD NOT KEPT A SINGLE PIE
FOR THE KIDS....THE SONS AND THE SONS-IN-LAW REFUSED TO DO THE FINAL RITES...LORDS GRACE...I
WAS TOO GLAD.I DID HIS FUNERAL IN A BEFITTING WAY....HIS DREAM LORD WANTED ME TO FULFILL.. I
THANKED THE LORD FOR THIS GOD SENT OPPORTUNITY...TILL DATE WITH LORDS GRACE I KEEP DOING
THE YEARLY CEREMONY TOO...ABSOLUTE GRACE OF THE LORD...PRAISE THE LORD...

11. A KING INVITED A SAINT TO HIS PALACE AND ASKED HIM TO WRITE A FEW WORDS ON THE BOARD
KEPT THERE...
THE SAINT WROTE....
GRAND FATHER DIES...
FATHER DIES...
SON DIES...
THE KING GOT UPSET...SO HE ASKED...WHY DO U WRITE INAUSPICIOUS THINGS...
THE SAINT SAID I WROTE GRANDFATHER DIES, NEXT FATHER DIES, NEXT SON DIES.... IF I CHANGE THIS
ORDER THEN IT IS INAUSPICIOUS....IF ITS IN ORDER IT IS AUSPICIOUS FOR THAT IS THE TRUTH IN YOUR
FAMILY...

12. YOU R DEATHLESS LIVING IN A BODY OF DEATH....THE CONSCIOUSNESS HAS NO DEATH.... DEATH IS
ONLY TO THE BODY....FEAR ENTERS THE MIND SINCE MOST OF US R SCARED OF DEATH...IF WE R
CONSCIOUS OF THE ETERNAL CONSCIOUSNESS THE FEAR WILL DISAPPEAR...

13. RIGHT IS POWER AND LEFT IS WISDOM...IT IS BELIEVED THAT LORD HOLDS THE CHAKRA IN THE
RIGHT AND SHANKU IN THE LEFT....IN SOME CASES HE LIKES TO USE WISDOM AS POWER AND POWER
AS WISDOM...IN SUCH CASES THE LORD IS CONSIDERED PARAM SATVIK... IN MANGALAGIRI ALSO
NRUSIMHA HOLDS IN REVERSE DIRECTION...IN ALL SUCH CASES THE LORD'S 1ST PRIORITY IS WISDOM
AND THE POWER ASPECT IS SECONDARY...RIGHT IS KARNA PISACHI AND LEFT IS HASTHI
PISACHI....KARNA PISACHI PROVIDES ALL INFORMATION WHERE AS HASTHI PISACHI PROVIDES
CLASSIFIED INFORMATION....AS U FACE EAST RIGHT SHOULDER POINTS TO SOUTH AND LEFT
SHOULDER TO NORTH....NORTH IS DEVATAS...SOUTH IS PITRUS...WHEN U WEAR THE SACRED THREAD IT
STARTS FROM LEFT SHOULDER TOWARDS RIGHT WAIST...THIS IS YAGNOPAVITHAM...WHEN U DO PITRU
KARYAMS IT IS FROM RIGHT SHOULDER TO LEFT WAIST IT IS PRACHINAVEETHAM....CHAKRA IS NEEDED
TO TACKLE PITRUS...SHANKHU IS ENUF TO TACKLE DEVATAS... IN SUM CASES LORD PREFERS TO
TACKLE PITRUS THRU WISDOM AND DEVATAS THRU POWER...IT IS CALLED ARCHAVATARA RAHASYAM...

14. NOW A DAYS PARENTS WHOSE SIBLINGS ARE EMPLOYED ABROAD ARE IN GREAT DEMAND....ONCE A
KID IS BORN, THE PARENTS OF THE GIRLS AND THE BOYS IN ROTATION TAKE CARE OF THE KIDS...AT
LEAST THEIR SERVICES ARE REQUIRED TILL THE KID GOES TO PLAY SCHOOL....THE ADVANTAGE IN THIS
SCHEME OF THINGS IS THE ELDERS GET A CHANCE TO EMOTIONALLY UP BRING THE KID... AS GRAND
PARENTS THEY GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY WATCHING THE KID GROWING UNDER THEIR
CARE...THEY ENJOY WHEN THE KID BEHAVES NAUGHTY..WHEN THE KID CRIES THEY CONSOLE IT WITH
THEIR TENDER WORDS...AN ELDERLY COUPLE WHO TOOK CARE OF THE THREE KIDS OF THEIR SON,
TRAVELLING 16 TIMES TO USA, WAS LEFT WITHOUT ANY CARE BY THE SON SUBSEQUENTLY....LUCKY
THE MAN WAS A GOVT. PENSIONER AND DID NOT DEPEND ON HIS SON AND TOOK CARE WELL HIS WIFE
TILL THE END...THE MAN DIED THREE YEARS BACK AND I CALLED HIS SON....HE DIDNT RESPOND...I LEFT
A MESSAGE THRU SOME ONE CLOSE TO ME OF HIS FATHER'S DEATH...NO RESPONSE..FINALLY I GOT
THE FUNERAL DONE...LAST WEEK THE MOTHER OF THE BOY DIED AND THE SAME SEQUENCE
FOLLOWED...FINALLY I WAS BLESSED WITH THE OPPORTUNITY OF GETTING THE FUNERAL DONE IN A
BEFITTING WAY...NOW THROUGH OUT MY LIFE I HAVE TO KEEP DOING THE SHRARDHAM FOR THIS
COUPLE...NO PROBLEM...ALREADY AS OF DATE I DO 57 SHRARADHAMS IN A YEAR OTHER THAN MY
FATHER'S SHRARDHAM...REALLY AMAZED THE WAY THIS BOY HAS BEHAVED AT THE DEATH OF HIS
PARENTS? NO DOUBT HE IS NOT THE DOER...I DO KNOW THIS...LORDS GRACE..

15. SOME FUNCTION...SUM PADA NAMASKARAM....MANY WERE PROSTRATING ME... IN THE QUEUE WAS A
GENTLEMAN...HE HANDED OVER SUM FRUITS... I SAID THANKS... THEN HE SAID I AM A SISHYA OF SUM
GURU.... SO I CANNOT PROSTRATE U... I TOLD HIM... NO PROBLEMS... ATLEAST I AM GLAD THAT U R NOT
AS STUPID AS THESE PEOPLE...SUDDENLY HE LOST BALANCE AND FELL AT MY FEET.THEN HE STOOD UP
AND LOOKED AT ME AND THEN LOOKED AT HIS FEET...ONCE AGAIN HE LOOKED AT ME AND THEN
LOOKED AT HIS FEET...FIRST I COULDNT UNDERSTAND...THEN I REALISED HOW DUMB I WAS...HE
WANTED ME TO TOUCH HIS FEET..MAY BE HE SHOULD NOT TOUCH MY FEET...HAVING TOUCHED IT THAT
ENTRY NEED TO BE REVERSED BY MY TOUCHING HIS FEET...I SAID TO HIM...ABSOLUTELY NO
PROBLEM...I GOT UP AND TOUCHED HIS FEET WITH ALL REVERENCE...HE WAS HAPPY AND LEFT...
....AFTER A FEW DAYS HIS WIFE SON DAUGHTER CAME TO SEE ME... THEY SAID PLEASE CUM HOME... I
SAID WHAT FOR...MY HUSBAND IS HAVING A LOT OF HALLUCINATIONS...HE SAYS HE IS ABLE TO SEE
MANY PITRUS IT SEEMS...HE GETS TRANSPORTED TO PITRU LOKA VERY OFTEN... IT SEEMS HE IS ABLE
TO SEE SUM CELESTIAL BODIES...OK THATS ALL GUD.... WHAT IS IT U PPL REALLY WANT FROM ME....HE
FEELS THAT AFTER UR TOUCHING HIS FEET THESE THINGS HAVE STARTED HAPPENING....OK I SAID AND
I WENT TO HIS HOME... ASKED FOR SOME THULASI WATER AND SPRINKLED IT ON HIS FACE...HE ASKED
ME WHAT IS THAT WHAT HE SAW.... I JUST WINKED AT HIM AND SAID....'ITS MIB....MEN IN BLACK'... I DONT
THINK HE UNDERSTOOD...

Guruji’s Experiences

1. CAN WORDS OF EXPERIENCE MATCH REALITY?

I REMEMBER PATANJALI AS I DESCRIBE MY EXPERIENCES TO YOU ALL...

'SHABDA GYANANUPATI VASTU-SHUNYO VIKALPA'....

NEVER IT IS POSSIBLE TO DESCRIBE THE REALITY OF ONE'S EXPERIENCE THRU WORDS....

WHATEVER I EXPLAIN I FEEL ITS VERY MUCH SHORT OF THE REALITY I ENJOYED...
STILL WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE....

2. HUMANS R GENIUS.....BABOONS TOO.... I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN KALAHARI DESERT IN

AFRICA...I HAD GONE ON AN EXPEDITION WITH A TEAM....WE WENT THERE TO STUDY THE LIFE OF
TRIBALS...I SAW SUMTHING AMAZING...DURING SUMMER IN KALAHARI VIRTUALLY IT IS DIFFICULT TO
FIND ANY WATER RESOURCE...THEY WILL BE IN FAR OFF PLACES...SUM TIMES SEEPING THRU THE
ROCKS OF THE MOUNTAINS....SUM SMALL OASIS WHICH WILL BE MILES AND MILES AWAY...THE
KALAHARIS CATCH THE BABOONS, A TYPA GREAT SAINT VISITS KAILASAM AND NARRATES..

3. A FEW YEARS BACK SOME ONE WANTED ME TO ATTEND A SATSANG OF SOME GREAT SAINT IN
CHENNAI...I TOLD HIM...I DONT GO ANY WHERE.....HE COMPELLED ME AND I COULD NOT REFUSE....THE
SAINT WAS SITTING ON A SOFA WELL DECORATED....THE PERSON WHO TOOK ME INTRODUCED ME TO
THE SAINT...THE SAINT ORDERED FOR A CHAIR.... HIS SISHYAS GAVE ME A SMALL STOOL TO SIT....THE
SAINT SPOKE BEAUTIFULLY ON SOME OF THE VERSES IN BHAGAWAD GITA.... THE EXPLANATIONS WERE
TOO GOOD...JUST THEN THIS HAPPENED...THE SAINT SAID ' YESTERDAY ONLY I RETURNED FROM
KAILASAM'...HE TURNED TOWARDS ME AND SAID ' IS IT NOT SRIDHAR GURUJI?'..NOW I AM IN
TROUBLE....HOW DO I KNOW HIS VISITING KAILASAM? FURTHER HE CONTINUED ABOUT THE CELESTIAL
DANCE OF PARVATHY AND ESHWARA AND NANDEESWARA AND GANAS DANCING....FIRST I THOUGHT HE
IS QUOTING FROM 'TIRUVILAYADAL' MOVIE... THEN HE ONCE AGAIN ASKED ME 'AM I NOT RIGHT SRIDHAR
GURUJI?'..I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO SAY..SO I THOUGHT I CAN ALSO PLAY A BIT...SO I ASKED HIM
BACK...'PARVATHY LAST WEEK WAS COMPLAINING OF HEADACHE....IS SHE ALRIGHT NOW?'....ALL HIS
SISHYAS STARTED LAUGHING...HE GOT WILD AND WENT INSIDE...JUST I ESCAPED FROM THERE...E OF
MONKEYS, AND TIE THEM....THEY FEED THEM WITH VERY TASTY SWEETS...THERE IS SUM TECHNIQUE IN
THEIR PREPARATION THAT THE SWEETS R MADE WITH A LOT OF SALT TOO AND U WILL NOT REALISE
THE SALT COMPONENT FOR SUM TIME.......AFTER EATING A LOT OF SWEETS THE BABOONS START
FEELING THIRSTY AND NEED WATER...AFTER SIX HOURS THEY LET LOOSE THE BABOONS AND START
CHASING THEM...THE BABOONS RUN MILES AND TAKE THEM TO THE WATER SOURCE...IN ONE WAY
BABOONS TOO R GENIUS THEY KNOW WHERE THE WATER SOURCE EXISTS EVEN IN SUMMER...

4. A FEW YEARS BACK,SUM ONE WAS UNDERGOING A MAJOR OPERATION OF A RARE KIND IN A
RENOWNED HOSPITAL IN DELHI....THE PATIENT IS A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE...HE AND HIS RELATIVES
WANTED ME TO BE PRESENT AT THE HOSPITAL...I WAS WITH THEM ON THAT DAY...THE OPERATION WAS
A SUCCESS...ALL THE RELATIVES CAME BEHIND ME AND WERE THANKING ME...I FELT A LITTLE
EMBARRASSED....IT WAS THE GRACE OF THE LORD IN THE FORM OF DOCTORS...SO I TOLD THEM LIKE
THIS...
'IF THE PATIENT DIES, THE DOCTOR HAS KILLED HIM'
'BUT IF HE GETS WELL, THE SAINT HAS SAVED HIM'...
THANK THE LORD BY THANKING THE DOCTORS...DONT BE STUPID TO THANK ME...THERE R SO MANY IN
THIS HOSPITAL WHO MIGHT HAVE DIED TODAY....DESPITE THAT IF MY FRIEND HAS BEEN SAVED IT IS
PURELY LORDS GRACE THRU THE DOCTORS...
STILL THEY DIDNT MOVE TO THANK THE DOCTORS....
THEN I JUST USED A BRAHMASTRAM....IF U DONT GO NOW AND THANK THEM , THEY MAY INCREASE
THEIR CHARGES AND UR BILL WILL GET INFLATED... I LAUGHED AT THEM AS THEY STARTED RUNNING
TO THE SURGEON'S CABIN....
I THOUGHT...WHAT A HYPOCRITIC THANKLESS WORLD IT IS WE LIVE IN...

5. TODAY I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH A BANKER....AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR TWO BOYS OVERTOOK
ME IN A SCOOTER...THE BOY SITTING BEHIND HAD A BIG PIG WHICH WAS TIED WITH ROPE THRU OUT
THE BODY AND WAS LITERALLY SHOUTING FOR HELP....I GATHERED SUM COURAGE DROVE THE
VEHICLE FAST OVER TOOK THE SCOOTER AND STOPPED THE BOYS....I JUST ASKED THEM HOW MUCH IT
COSTS....THE BOY SAID RS.8000...I ASKED THEM TO KEEP IT IN THE BACK SEAT OF MY CAR...I JUST PAID
THE BOYS THE MONEY AND DROVE THE CAR OUT OF CITY...TO MY SURPRISE THE PIG DID NOT SHOUT
EVEN ONCE INSIDE THE CAR....OUT OF THE CITY I JUST TOOK THE HELP OF TWO BOYS...GOT IT DOWN
FROM THE CAR REMOVED THE ROPE AND LEFT IT...IT JUST RAN MAY BE 50 FEET IN TO THE FIELDS,
SUDDENLY STOPPED AND LOOKED BACK AT ME...I JUST WAVED MY HAND AND LEFT....THE BANKER
CALLED ME AND SAID MY BOSS WAS HERE...WE COULD HAVE DISCUSSED THE PROPOSAL...U LOST AN
OPPORTUNITY...I SAID BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME....I WAS HAPPY ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY GIVEN BY
GOD...NOW MY SISHYAS HAVE TO START SAVE A PIG CAMPAIGN FOR WE HAVE ONLY 3 BILLION PIGS IN
THIS WORLD....ITS AN ENDANGERED SPECIE?

6. AROUND 15 YEARS BACK IN ONE OF MY DISCIPLES HOUSE THEY WERE DOING SUM YANTRA
POOJA...(THAT DAY MY SISHYAS WERE DOING AND I JUST WENT THERE TO HAVE A LOOK..SINCE INSIDE
IT WAS FULL AND SUFFOCATING, I JUST CAME OUT AND WAS SITTING OUTSIDE....SUM ONE AROUND 70

THOUGHT LIKE MASALA PAAN, ZARDA PAAN THERE IS SUMTHING CALLED 'SHIVA SHIVAA' AND TOLD THE
PAAN BOY TO MAKE ONE 'SHIVA SHIVAA'....THE BOY STARED AT ME....THEN THIS GENTLE MAN TOLD
ME....THE PROBLEM WITH NOW A DAYS MAN IS THEY DONT UNDERSTAND SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE....I

INSIDE TO LOOK FOR SWAMIJI AND I WENT AND STOOD IN THE UPSTAIRS WHICH IS OPEN TO SKY JUST
ENJOYING THE MOON LIGHT...THE PUJA WAS OVER AND HE WAS STILL WAITING FOR DARSHAN OF
SWAMIJI...I DIDN'T WANT TO DISAPPOINT HIM BY NOT SEEING HIM AT SAME TIME I DONT WANT HIM TO
FEEL OFFENDED...I SAID I HAVE A PRAYOGAM TO DO AND COVERED MY ENTIRE FACE WITH A RED
CLOTH JUST KEEPING THE EYES PORTION OPEN....HE SAID...I JUST CAME TO SEEK YOUR BLESSINGS...I
JUST SAID....'SHIVA SHIVAA'.....

7. LOTS OF RUSH...LOT OF PEOPLE WAITING.....THE QUEUE IS ALMOST A KM IN LENGTH...I JUST PARKED

MY CAR AT A DISTANCE AND WALKED DOWN....WENT STRAIGHT TO THE GATE..THERE WERE A LOT OF
SECURITY PERSONNEL WAITING OUTSIDE TRYING TO DISCIPLINE THE CROWD....I JUST SAID I WOULD
LIKE TO GO IN....THEY REFUSED....I JUST CAME BACK TO THE CAR....DROVE PAST SHAMSHABAD
AIRPORT...WAITED ON THE ROAD PARKING THE CAR TO THE LEFT...A WONDERFUL PORSCHE CAYENNE
CAR CAME NEAR ME AND STOPPED....SWAMIJI GOT DOWN FROM THE CAR AND GOT IN TO MY CAR...JUST
CHATTED WITH HIM FOR SUM TIME AND DROVE HIM BACK TO HIS PLACE...NOW THE SAME SECURITY
OFFICERS OPENED THE DOOR ALLOWED THE CAR INSIDE...I TOLD SWAMIJI I WILL PARK THE CAR INSIDE
FOR SUM TIME SINCE I HAD SUM WORK IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THERE THE PROBLEM IS PARKING
SPACE...I JUST CAME OUT ENTERED MCDONALDS AND PURCHASED SUM FRENCH FRIES....CAME BACK

PREPARED MY BED AND WAS ABOUT TO SLEEP... A MAN CAME AND SAID SIR DONT PUT UR LEG THIS

INSIDE THE SANCTUM SANCTORUM'...I OFFERED PROSTRATIONS AND THANKED GOD FOR HAVING
ALLOWED ME TO CUM INSIDE THE TEMPLE MAY NOT BE GARBHA GUDI........I WAS NOT SURE WHETHER
JUST BEING BORN IN A HINDU FAMILY WILL GIVE ME THE RIGHTS OF CALLING MYSELF A HINDU....SO I
WALKED OUT....

13. I HAVE A FRIEND IN DELHI...A VERY STRONG BELIEVER OF VAISHNAVITE TRADITION...AN IYENGAR BY
BIRTH...HE USED TO KEEP HIGHLIGHTING THE RICH PRINCIPLES OF VAISHNAVISM...SUM TIMES HE USED
TO RIDICULE OTHER RELIGIONS CASTES SCHOOLS...SOME TIME BACK I RECEIVED AN INVITATION FROM
HIM PERFORMING HIS SONS MARRIAGE...THE BOY IS MARRYING A GIRL BY NAME..'BABLOO'...I COULDN'T
GO FOR THE MARRIAGE..SO I CALLED HIM...I SAID HOPE THE MARRIAGE WENT OFF WELL...YEAH YEAH....I

ASKED HIM HOW CUM HE ALLOWED THIS...HE SAID...NOWADAYS U DUNNO ABT DELHI...ONCE MY BOY

14. A FEW YEARS BACK A VERY GREAT VAAMACHARI ENTERED THE FOREST WITH THE SOLE AIM TO
IMMOBILISE ME OR IF GIVEN A CHANCE TO ELIMINATE ME...HE WAS A VERY GREAT VAAMACHARI... A
VERY IMMACULATE PERSON WITH BIG TECHNIQUES OF SORCERY ON HAND...WE KNOW EACH OTHER
VERY WELL...BUT SOME HOW OVER A PERIOD OF TIME HE DEVELOPED A LOT OF PROFESSIONAL
JEALOUSY ON ME....BUT BASICALLY HE WAS A GOOD PERSON..I WAS DOING A PRAYOGAM IN THE
FOREST CALLED 'MAYANKA' WHERE WE PROPITIATE LORD SARABHESHWARA... NEARBY TO THE PLACE
WHERE I WAS DOING PRAYOGAM, HE STARTED DOING 'ABHICHARAM' OF THE HIGHEST ORDER....HE WAS
BUSY INVITING ALL THE NEGATIVE ENERGIES...IN ABOUT 3 HOURS HE ASSUMED A LOT OF ENERGY
ENTERED A HYENA... SINCE I COMPLETED THE PRAYOGAM 'MAYANKA', I HAD TO TAKE BATH AND WAS AT
THE STREAM TAKING BATH...ON THE BANKS I SAW THE FEROCIOUS HYENA...LORDS GRACE I KNEW THAT
IT WAS MY VAAMACHARI FRIEND..THE HYENA WAS WAITING ON THE BANKS....HE KNEW IF HE JUMPED IN
WATER HE WILL LOOSE HIS POWER....I JUST WENT TO THE OPPOSITE BANK AND HE WOULD CUM
CHARGING TO THE OTHER SIDE...I WILL ONCE AGAIN SLIP IN TO THE WATER... I WAS JUST PLAYING THIS
GAME OF HIDE AND SEEK FOR THE SUN TO SET, SINCE IT WAS AMAVASYA (NEW MOON)...THE GAME
WILL BE DIFFERENT...THE AABHICHARA PRAYOGAM WHICH HE HAD DONE IS POWERFUL ON
CHATHURDASI BUT WEAKENS DURING AMAVASYA... EXACTLY BY 7 PM THAT DAY AMAVASYA
STARTS...ONCE AMAVASYA STARTED I CAME OUT OF THE WATER....HE WAS VERY ANGRY AND LEAPED
ON ME....WITH LORDS GRACE I JUST MOVED...THE HYENA HIT ITS HEAD ON A BIG ROCK BEHIND AND
STARTED BLEEDING PROFUSELY... I CALLED THE TRIBALS AND ASKED THE HYENA TO BE TREATED WITH
HERBAL MEDICINES...I WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE HE HIS BODY LAID STILL....I CALLED A FEW TRIBALS
THERE AND WE GAVE HIM SUM FIRST AID....THEY HELPED ME IN BRINGING HIM TO MY CAR PARKED ON
THE ROAD... I DROVE HIM TO A HOSPITAL 50 KMS AWAY. IT WAS AN AYURVEDIC HOSPITAL...THEY
TREATED HIM FOR 3 DAYS AND HE WAS ALRIGHT... I SAW HIM OFF FROM KOCHI....NOW HE IS A
REFORMED MAN...HE IS A SAINT AND LIVES IN HIMALAYAS...

15. MANY MANY YEARS BACK AN ORTHODOX BRAHMIN VEDIC PUNDIT CAME TO ME....HE WAS ALREADY
BLESSED WITH 3 BEAUTIFUL GIRLS....HIS WIFE WAS PREGNANT FOURTH TIME...HE ASKED ME... GURUJI
PLEASE BLESS ME TO HAVE A ON THIS OCCASION...I ASKED HIM....A KID IS A KID....WHETHER A MALE OR
A FEMALE DOESNT MATTER MUCH THESE DAYS...HE THEN SAID ... NO GURUJI...WE R AFAMILY
TRADITIONALLY CONNECTED TO VEDAS... I NEED A SON SO THAT THIS TRADITIONAL FAMILY OF VEDAS
CAN CONTINUE OUR SERVICE TO VEDAS...I GIVE A PROMISE GURUJI...ON A SON BEING BORN TO ME I
WILL SEE TO IT HE LEARNS VEDAS AND CONTINUES HIS TRADITION...I JUST LEFT TO THE FOREST...WITH
THE BLESSINGS OF LORD I DID A RARE PRAYOGAM CALLED..'RAKSHA BAANU' WHICH IS NORMALLY A
PRAYOGAM DONE FOR BIRTH OF MALE KIDS...HE WAS BLESSED WITH A SON...INCLUDING HIM THERE
WOULD HAVE BEEN ATLEAST ANOTHER 16000 COUPLES WHO WOULD HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH A SON
ON ACCOUNT OF THIS PRAYOGAM...
HE KEPT HIS WORD...NOW HIS SON IS ALMOST ON THE VERGE OF COMPLETING RIG VEDA...MAY BE
ANOTHER FEW YEARS... NOW A DAYS THIS KID CUMS AND RECITES RIG VEDA IN OUR YAGNAMS... VERY
SWEET CHILD OF GOD WITH A MELODIOUS VOICE...LORD'S GRACE..

16. MONKEY FASTING....A MONKEY IN A TEMPLE USED TO SEE THE PUJARI FASTING ON FULL MOON
DAYS....THE PUJARI USED TO FAST THRU OUT THE DAY...IN THE EVENING AFTER SEEING THE FULL
MOON HE WILL BREAK THE FAST....MONKEY THOUGHT WHY NO I ALSO FAST...SO IT WAS SITTING FROM
THE MORNING WITHOUT TAKING ANY FOOD...AFTER 2 HOURS IT THOUGHT ITS BETTER TO KEEP TWO
BANANAS BY THE SIDE...HE THOUGHT ONCE HE SEES THE MOON HE WILL HAVE THE BANANAS...SO HE
TOOK SUM TWO BANANAS AND KEPT IT BY HIS SIDE...ANOTHER HOUR PASSED...ANY HOW I AM GOING
TO BREAK THE FAST ON SEEING THE MOON, LET ME PEEL THE BANANAS AND KEEP IT READY FOR
CONSUMPTION....ANOTHER HOUR PASSED...MONKEYS HAVE A SAC IN THERE MOUTH...SO THIS MONKEY
THOUGHT I CAN MASH THE BANANAS AND KEEP IT IN THE SAC AND ONCE FAST IS OVER I CAN
CONSUME....HE MASHED THE BANANAS AND KEPT IT IN THE SAC..ANOTHER HOUR PASSED..HE
THOUGHT I AM A MONKEY...HE IS A PUJARI....WHY MONKEYS SHOULD FAST..I CAN VERY WELL EAT THE
BANANAS AND HE ATE THE BANANAS...MOST OF US BELONG TO THE CATEGORY OF 'MONKEY FASTING'...

17. THOSE DAYS PEOPLE USED TO EAT WELL...THEY USED TO FEAST WELL...SO FASTING WAS
SUGGESTED FOR ONCE IN 15 DAYS IN THE FORM OF EKADASI TO CLEANSE THE SYSTEM....TODAY IN UR
BUSY LIFE HARDLY WE EAT... EVEN IF WE EAT IT IS JUNK FOOD MOST OF THE TIMES....EVEN IF U EAT
WELL FOR A DAY THE SYSTEM DOESNT ACCEPT IT...INDIGESTION ETC., SINCE WE R USED TO JUNK
FOOD...GOOD FOOD IS AN ALIEN TO THE BODY...SUM HOW I AM NOT FOR FOLLOWING THE SASTRA
BLINDLY...IT IS SAID SASTRAYA CHA SUKAYA CHA....SASTRA CAME FOR THE SUKHAM OF ALL LIVING
BEINGS... ALREADY EVERY DAY IS EKADASI AND U DONT EAT PROPERLY...AS DAYS CHANGE SASTRA
ALSO UNDERGOES CHANGE WITH EXPERTS GIVING BETTER WORKABLE SOLUTIONS...WE CANT BLINDLY
APPLY SASTRAS AND SASTRAS HAVE EVOLVED WITH TIME....OTHERWISE WE MAY HAVE TO DRESS UP
WITH HIDES LEAVES AND GO BACK TO FOREST...THIS IS MY PERSONAL VIEW...

18. I WAS DRIVING AT 110 KMS PER HOUR ON THE HIGH WAY IN MY JEEP....A VERY BEAUTIFUL
MERCEDES M CLASS OVER TOOK ME AND I KNEW THE DRIVER WAS ENJOY RIDING....AFTER ABOUT 100
KMS I STOPPED THE JEEP TO HV SUM TIFFIN AT THE ROAD SIDE HOTEL....I SAW THE SAME VEHICLE
THERE AT THE HOTEL....AFTER DRIVING AROUND 30 KMS I FOUND THAT MERCEDES ONCE AGAIN OVER
TAKING ME....HE WAS GOING AT A HIGH SPEED...BUT I WAS STEADY AT 110....THIS SCENE WAS GOING ON
AND ON...FINALLY WHEN I REACHED MADURAI AT THE TOLL GATE IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR I COULD
SEE THE MERCEDES AT MY BACK.....AFTER THE TOLL I JUST STOPPED THE VEHICLE TO SEE THE
BEAUTY OF THE VEHICLE....IT ZIP PASSED...I WAS STAYING IN A HOTEL AT MADURAI....THE MERCEDES
WAS PARKED NEXT TO MY VEHICLE....I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP FROM MADURAI TO RAJAPALAYAM...ON
THE W
AY I SAW A VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF ROAD HAD SLIPPED THE BUND AND HAD DRIVEN IN TO THE
FIELD....I PARKED MY JEEP...GOT DOWN AND WENT THERE AND SAW...IT WAS THE MERCEDES FRIEND
WHOM I HAVE BEEN SEEING FOR THE PAST 6 OR 7 DAYS....THERE WAS ONLY ONE MAN IN THE DRIVER
SEAT WHO HAD BROKEN HIS LEG SITTING ON THE SEAT WITH SEAT BELT STRAPPED...HE WAS IN A
STATE OF SHOCK... I CALLED SUM PPL FROM A NEARBY VILLAGE PARKED MY JEEP THERE AND TOOK
THIS DRIVER GENTLEMAN AND DROVE THE MERCEDES BACK TO MADURAI...I ADMITTED HIM IN A
CORPORATE HOSPITAL....LUCKY HE ESCAPED WITH SUM MINOR INJURY AND FRACTURE OF THE
LEG....CALLED HIS RELATIVES AND TOLD THEM...SUM ONE WAS THERE IN MADURAI WHO CAME TO TAKE
CARE OF HIM...AS I LEFT HE THANKED ME.....I THANKED HIM FOR THE RIDE AND OPPORTUNITY...IT WAS A
LONG CHERISHED DESIRE OF MINE TO DRIVE A MERCEDES M CLASS AND THE LORD FULFILLED MY
DESIRE LIKE THIS....THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF MONTHS BACK....

19. IDENTITY....

MAY BE AROUND 15 YEARS BACK..THOSE DAYS CALCUTTA..(KOLKOTA)...THOSE WERE THE DAYS OF

BLISS...I HAD VERY LESS AUDIENCE...MY PRIVACY WAS INTACT....ONE FAMILY WHOM I DO NOT KNOW
INVITED ME TO THEIR PLACE...THEY HAD NOT SEEN...NONE IN THAT GROUP..SOME ONE KNOWN TO ME
PHONED ME AND ASKED ME TO VISIT THEM....ONE OF MY CLOSE SANYASI FRIEND FROM HARIDWAR
WANTED TO SEE ME AND I ASKED HIM TO COME TO THAT ADDRESS SINCE HE WAS SUM WHERE NEAR
BY TO THAT PLACE..HE WAS JUST WALKING AHEAD OF ME IN TO THAT HOUSE...I SAW SUM PEOPLE
CUMING OUTSIDE...WITHIN A FLASH HE WAS GARLANDED AND POORNA KUMBAM OFFERED AND WAS

IN HINDI..THEY MAY UNDERSTAND...A SATSANG IS A SATSANG...WHETHER I DO IT OR U DO IT...FOR WE R
NOT THE DOERS AND LORD IS THE DOER....EVEN TODAY WHENEVER WE MEET WE KEEP REMEMBERING
THIS EPISODE..
20. LONG BACK I WAS WITH A SAINT....HE WAS A VERY GOOD YOGA MASTER.....HE SAID TO ME...WHY NOT
WE BOTH JOIN...I AM AN EXPERT IN YOGA AND YOUR ARE AN EXPERT IN PRAYOGA... TOGETHER WE CAN
BRING A REVOLUTION IN THE WORLD... WHEN I LEFT HIS PLACE, I HAD A FEELING OF A BUSINESS MAN
WALKING OUT OF A FIVE STAR HOTEL AFTER DELIBERATING/NEGOTIATING A JOINT VENTURE
BUSINESS...LORDS GRACE...

21. THE MYSTERY IS BOTH MY MIND AND HEART IS OPERATIVE ONLY WITH LORD'S GRACE....PROBABLY
HE WANTS BOTH TO BE THERE FOR A WHOLE SUM EXPERIENCE....THAT EXPERIENCE IS GOING TO
BLOOM IN TO ENLIGHTENMENT... THAT ENLIGHTENMENT IS GOING TO DISPEL THE DARKNESS...THIS
HOPE IN THE HEART IS FLOWERING BECAUSE OF THE CONFIDENCE LORD GAVE ME IN
HIM....ULTIMATELY WE SURRENDER EVERYTHING AT HIS FEET FOR HE IS THE GUARDIAN AND THE
GODFATHER TO US...THE DESIRE TO BE WITH THIS EXISTENCE IS GETTING STRONGER...FOR THIS
EXISTENSIALITY LEADS TO LORD...

22. ONE MORE PERSON I AM PHYSICALLY MISSING IS BRAHMASRI. JAYARAMA SASTRY... A VERY
KNOWLEDGEABLE MAN WITH A LOT OF HUMILITY....HE WILL ADJUST AND ADAPT HIMSELF IN ANY
CIRCUMSTANCE....HE IS SIMPLE TO THE CORE....HE IS WELL VERSED IN YAGUR VEDA, SASTRAS,
SAMPRADAYAS...HE WAS SAKSHAAT KALIYUGA SARASWATHY....HE WAS A PUNDIT IN SANSKRIT
VYAKARANAM....HE WAS THE APPOINTED HIGH PRIEST AT PUTTAPARTHI TO DO ARADHANA TO THE
PADUKAS OF BHAGAWAN BABA....WE AS A TEAM AND AS A FAMILY MISS THIS TOWERING PERSONALITY
WHO IS NO MORE ON THIS MORTAL EARTH...OUR SALUTATIONS AND PROSTRATIONS TO THE NOBLE
SOUL...

23. WONDER GIRL AND TENDER GIRL TOO...

WHEN I WAS YOUNG I HAD MANY TIMES VISITED GERMANY FOR SUM PURPOSE....AT THAT TIME I GOT
ACQUAINTED WITH GLINDA WHO WAS DOING RESEARCH IN ATHARVA VEDA AND I WAS HER GUIDE... A
VERY GOOD GIRL...WHENEVER SHE USED TO VISIT INDIA FOR HER OWN SPIRITUAL QUEST, THE LAST
TWO DAYS I USED TO GO TO DELHI AND TAKE HER TO HARIDWAR AND RISHIKESH... IN THE LITTLE TIME
AVAILABLE FOR ME WITH HER WE USED TO ROAM IN THESE PLACES...MOST OF THE TIME WILL BE SPENT
IN MEDITATION AND SILENCE...THE DAY SHE LEAVES BACK TO GERMANY I USED TO SEE HER OFF AT
THE AIRPORT BEFORE BOARDING MY FLIGHT BACK HOME...SHE WILL TIGHTLY HUG ME AND THEN SHE
WILL WAVE HER HAND AT ME FROM A DISTANCE... I CAN SEE A FEW TEAR DROPS IN HER EYES...I USED
TO WONDER AT HER TENDER BEHAVIOR... ALL IN THE AIRPORT WILL HAVE A JEALOUS LOOK AS SHE IS
VERY BEAUTIFUL... IN FACT ONCE WHEN SUM ONE KNOWN TO ME ASKED ME IN THE AIRPORT AS TO
WHO SHE IS.......I WINKED AT HIM AND SAID...SHE IS DEADLY CLOSE TO ME... U SAW THE CLOSENESS
NA....HE COULDNT DIGEST...PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE SLEPT FOR DAYS....STUPID GUY....

24. EDMUND BURKE NEVER HAD THE HABIT OF ATTENDING MASS IN THE CHURCH. HIS FRIEND WAS
FATHER LARRY WHO FELT VERY ODD ABOUT THIS...HE ASKED BURKE...WHY IS IT U NEVER CUM TO
CHURCH? BURKE SAID IF I CUM TO CHURCH U WILL BE IN TROUBLE...SINCE U HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY
REQUESTING ME TO CUM TO CHURCH, THIS SUNDAY I WILL CUM...B PREPARED TO FACE ME...LARRY
PREPARED A BEAUTIFUL SERMON SINCE HE WANTED TO IMPRESS BURKE...AFTER THE SERMON, THE
QUESTION HOUR STARTED... BURKE ASKED...FATHER U SAID GOOD PEOPLE VIRTUOUS PEOPLE THOSE
WHO BELIEVE IN GOD GO TO HEAVEN...NOW MY DOUBT IS GOOD PEOPLE VIRTUOUS PEOPLE WHO DONT
BELIEVE IN GOD, WHERE DO THEY GO...NOW LARRY WAS IN TROUBLE...IF HE SAYS GOOD PPL VIRTUOUS
PPL WHO DONT BELIEVE IN GOD GO TO HELL...THEN IT MEANS BAD PPL FULL OF VICES WHO BELIEVE IN
GOD WILL GO TO... HEAVEN...ALL CAN DO NONSENSE BELIEVE IN GOD AND GO TO HEAVEN....LARRY
SAID I WILL ANSWER THE QUESTION IN THE NEXT SUNDAY MASS...LARRY WENT THRU BIBLE, OLD NEW
TESTAMENTS, DAVIDS GOLIATH LAW AND WHAT NOT...NO WHERE HE COULD FIND AN ANSWER....ONLY A
FEW HOURS LEFT FOR SERMON HE WAS TIRED AND HE SLEPT...HE HAD A DREAM...HE WAS TRAVELLING
IN A TRAIN...HE GOT DOWN IN A STATION...THE STATION WAS FULL OF GARBAGE AND DUST...IT LOOKED
AS THOUGH NO ONE VISITED EVER THIS PLACE...THERE WERE A FEW PPL WHO WERE SKINNY AND
LOOKED LIKE BEGGARS AND NOT EATEN FOR DAYS...HE ASKED WHICH PLACE IS THIS? THEY REPLIED IT
IS THE HEAVEN...THEN HE ASKED...WHERE IS JESUS CHRIST, ST PETER, FRANCIS XAVIER, ADI
SHANKARA, BUDDHA...THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS NAME...HE ASKED IS THERE ANY
OTHER TRAIN GOING ELSE WHERE..THEY SAID YES THERE IS A TRAIN GOING TO HELL ON THE OTHER
PLATFORM...HE BOARDED THAT TRAIN...HE THOUGHT HEAVEN ITSELF IS IN THIS CONDITION AND
IMAGINIE HOW THE HELL MUST BE...AS THE TRAIN APPROACHED HELL THERE WAS A LOT OF FLORA AND
FAUNA...GREENERY...LIGHT RAIN...AS THE TRAIN STOPPED AT HELL LOTS OF PPL WERE DANCING AND
MERRY MAKING...AS HE GOT DOWN THEY INVITED HIM TO JOIN IN THE PARTY...HE ASKED CAN I MEET

BACK....LARRY GOT UP FROM HIS DREAM...HE LOOKED AT BURKE AND SMILED...HE SAID WHETHER GOD
EXISTS R NOT I DUNNO...BUT GOOD PEOPLE VIRTUOUS PPL,CAN ALWAYS TRANSFORM HELL IN TO
HEAVEN....

25. WHEN U DO SOMETHING, YOU SHOULD BURN YOURSELF COMPLETELY ,LIKE A GOOD BONFIRE,
LEAVING NO TRACE OF YOURSELF....

26. THE RELIGIOUSNESS WHICH IS THE FLAVOUR AND TASTE OF EVERY RELIGION TRANSFORMS HELL IN
TO HEAVEN.....

27. IT WAS MONSOON SEASON....HEAVY RAINS IN KERALA...NEW MOON DAY....I WAS JUST WALKING UP
AND THEN DOWN THE HILL TOWARDS THE VALLEY...I COULD HARDLY SEE....JUST WALKING BY
FAITH....LOTS OF LIGHTNING...VERY SLIPPERY....I HAD A BIG BAMBOO STICK....WITH IT I WAS TRYING TO
HAVE A FEEL OF THE SLIPPERY GROUND...SLOWLY WALKING TOWARDS THE VALLEY...JUST THEN IT
HAPPENED....SUDDENLY I REALISED I WAS HANGING UPSIDE DOWN...SOMETHING HAD WRAPPED MY
LEGS AND WAS FIRMLY HOLDING.... AND I WAS HANGING UPSIDE DOWN FROM THE TREE BUT I COULD
FEEL SUM THING STRONGLY CATCHING MY LEG...I WAS IN THIS POSITION FOR A FEW HOURS AND I
WENT IN TO DEEP SLUMBER....I JUST GOT UP...AS I FELL DOWN.....RAIN HAD STOPPED...IT WAS
MORNING...I THEN REALISED SUM 20 FEET AWAY THERE WAS A DEEP GORGE DOWN THE HILL MAY BE
ABOUT 500 TO 600 FEET....AS I JUST GOT UP I REALIZED THAT I WAS THRU OUT THE NIGHT HELD BY A
MASSIVE PYTHON WHICH AFTER DROPPING ME WAS SLOWLY MOVING IN TO THE BUSHES AND
DISAPPEARED......PROBABLY LORD THAT DAY DECIDED TO EXTEND MY STAY ON EARTH...I OFFERED MY
SALUTATIONS AND PROSTRATIONS TO LORD ANANTA SARPA NARAYANA...

28. WHEN I WAS YOUNG MAY BE AROUND 15 YEARS ONE OF MY CLOSE FRIEND IN SCHOOL DIED OF
BLOOD CANCER.... HIS SPIRIT/SOUL USED TO TALK TO ME.... I WAS A LOT IMMATURED AND I TOLD ONE
OF MY RELATIVE THAT I AM IN CONVERSATION WITH MY FRIEND WHO DIED... THE NEWS SPREAD... ALL
WERE IN PANIC... I WAS TAKEN TO AN ELDERLY PERSON IN MY FAMILY (AN UNCLE OF MY MOTHER), WHO
IN TURN REFERRED ME TO BE SEEN BY AN EXORCIST....THE EXORCIST ON SEEING ME SAID THAT ONE
OF MY CLOSE RELATIVE HAD DONE SUM BLACK MAGIC ON ME AND THAT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED... IT
WAS REAL FUN.... HE MADE ME SIT... CALLED ALL THE GODS AND SPIRITS.... TO MY KNOWLEDGE I COULD
NOT SEE ANY OF THEM... THAT DAY INTERESTINGLY I COULD SEE ONE OF THE EXORCIST'S
FOREFATHER STANDING AND SAYING SUMTHING TO HIM.... WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE THE PLACE, I
TOLD THE GENTLEMAN....'ONE OF YOUR FOREFATHER IS BUSY STANDING NEXT TO U AND WAS SAYING
SUMTHING, AS U WERE PRAYING FOR ME...I SMILED AND SAID PROBABLY HE IS TRYING TO SUGGEST
SUMTHING TO SOLVE MY CASE......THIS MAN GOT REALLY SCARED, WENT AND MET MY GRAND UNCLE
WHO REFERRED MY CASE TO HIM...WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF MY PARENTS MY GRAND UNCLE
CAME ONE DAY TO MY SCHOOL DURING THE LUNCH TIME AND ASKED ME AS TO WHAT WAS GOING ON
WITH ME...INTERESTINGLY THAT DAY I COULD SEE A SPIRIT BEHIND HIM AND TOLD HIM TO WATCH HIS
STEPS WHEN HE WALKS....HE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND....NEXT DAY HE HAD A FRACTURE... WHEN I MET
MAHARISHI RAJAR I TOLD HIM THE WHOLE EPISODE....RAJAR SCOLDED ME AND ASKED ME TO
EXCERCISE RESTRAINT... I STOPPED TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT ANYTHING I COULD VISUALISE FROM THAT
DAY... IT WAS REAL FUN WHEN I HAPPENED TO SEE THE SO CALLED EXORCIST AFTER AN YEAR ON THE
ROAD....VIRTUALLY HE STARTED RUNNING ON SEEING ME....IF I THINK OF THIS INCIDENT EVEN TODAY, I
HAVE A HEART LAUGH....

29. I WAS ONCE STAYING AT MOONAR WITH A FRIEND OF MINE IN A SMALL SHED LIKE STRUCTURE WITH
A WOODEN DOOR...HEAVY RAINS WERE LASHING OUTSIDE...MAY BE PAST MIDNIGHT....MY FRIEND WOKE
ME UP...HE SAID SUM ONE IS KNOCKING THE DOOR....I SAID...PLEASE GO AND OPEN.... HE SAID...ITS LATE
IN THE NITE AND I AM SCARED...I SAID...OK I WILL GO AND OPEN....I JUST WENT AND OPENED THE
DOOR...IT WAS PITCH DARK OUTSIDE AND I COULDNT SEE ANY ONE IN THE DARK...I HAD A TORCH IN MY
BAG...SO I WENT BACK COLLECTED THE TORCH AND SWITCHED IT ON....I COULDNT FIND ANY ONE....
HEAVY ROARING RAINS... I JUST CAME BACK AND SLEPT....I JUST GOT UP IN THE MORNING....MY FRIEND
WAS NOT TO BE FOUND......HE HAD LEFT.... I JUST CLOSED THE SHED AND LOCKED IT AND GAVE THE
KEYS TO THE SHOPWALA WHO HAD RENTED OUT THE PLACE FOR THE NITE...I JUST WALKED TO THE
BUS STAND TO CATCH A BUS TO ERNAKULAM.... I FOUND MY FRIEND THERE.... ON SEEING ME HE WAS
TREMBLING.... HE ASKED ME....'R U A BEAST OF SUM SORT? I SAID....MAY BE.... WHAT HAPPENED? IN THE
MORNING WHEN I GOT UP I SAW A VERY BIG LONG SNAKE, QUITE HUGE SLEEPING BY YOUR SIDE AND
UR HAND WAS ON THE SNAKE IN A HUGGING POSTURE'.... THEN I REALISED...PROBABLY IT IS 'UMA'....A
VERY HUGE RAJA NAGAM...A KING COBRA MAY BE AROUND 14 OR 15 FEET IN LENGTH WAS SLEEPING
WITH ME...I NORMALLY SIGHT HER IN MOONAR RAJAMALAI AREA....SHE HAS ONLY KNOCKED THE DOOR
AT NITE AND LORDS GRACE WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE I COULD SPEND THE NITE WITH HER..LORDS
GRACE...EVEN TODAY WHEN I SEE HER I REMEMBER THIS INCIDENT...

30. IT WAS QUITE A CALM EVENING IN THE FOREST....JUST SUM CHIRPING OF BIRDS AND OCCASIONAL
SWEET SOUNDS OF VARIOUS ANIMALS....I WAS JUST SITTING ON A ROCK ENJOYING THE CALMNESS AND
BEAUTY OF THE FOREST...WINTER TIME...SO IT WAS VERY GREEN OUT THERE....AS I WAS OBSERVING
THE PLANTS AND TREES AND APPRECIATING THE BEAUTY OF THE LORD IN THE FORM OF FOREST, I
COULD SEE TWO EYES STRAIGHT LOOKING AT ME FROM A TREE OPPOSITE TO ME... JUST CURIOUS TO
KNOW AS TO WHO IT WAS I JUST GOT DOWN FROM THE SEAT OF THE ROCK AND WENT BELOW THE
TREE AND STARTED LOOKING UP....IT JUST VANISHED OFF...I THOUGHT IT DOESNT WANT TO REVEAL
ITSELF TO ME AND SO RETURNED BACK TO MY ROCK SEAT...ONCE AGAIN THE EYES REAPPEARED ON
THE TREE AND STARTED LOOKING AT ME...FOR ONCE I THOUGHT IT MAY BE SUM SORT OF A BIRD OR
ANIMAL AND PROBABLY I AM INTRUDING IN TO ITS PRIVACY BY SITTING THERE...I DIDNT WANT TO
DISTURB ITS PRIVACY AND HENCE DECIDED TO MOVE OUT OF THE PLACE....I STARTED WALKING IN THE
OPPOSITE DIRECTION...SUN HAS SET AND IT WAS PITCH DARK... I JUST REMOVED THE TORCH FROM MY
BAG, SWITCHED IT ON AND STARTED WALKING...AFTER TWO HOURS OF WALK, I REACHED A SMALL
STREAM...I FELT LIKE TAKING BATH....REMOVED MY CLOTHES..WITH A TOWEL AROUND MY WAIST I
STARTED TO BATHE...COMPLETED MY BATH AND CAME OUT AND STARTED SEARCHING MY CLOTHES
AND THE BAG...IN THE DARK I COULD NOT LOCATE...SO I STARTED LOOKING AROUND...I SAW A FAINT
LIGHT AT A DISTANCE...SO WALKED TOWARDS IT....IT WAS MY TORCH SWITCHED ON AND DIRECTLY
POINTING TOWARDS MY FACE...SO FOR A SECOND I HAD TO CLOSE MY EYES WITH MY PALM AND THRU
THE FINGERS LOOKED OUT TO SEE THE LIGHT.....NOW I COULD FIGURE OUT IT WAS NONE OTHER THAN
'MEKALA', A FULLY GROWN FEMALE LEOPARD WHO WAS HOLDING THE TORCH IN HER MOUTH...SHE
CAME NEAR AND DROPPED THE TORCH....SHE PUSHED ME DOWN AND STARTED LICKING MY FACE..SHE
SPENT THE ENTIRE NIGHT BY LYING DOWN BESIDE ME AND DID NOT ALLOW ME TO GET UP...IN THE
MORNING SHE GOT UP EARLY AND LEFT...I SPOTTED MY BAG AND CLOTHES BY MY SIDE...LORDS
GRACE...

31. BRAHMINS HAD SAID 'BYE' AND LEFT...I STARTED TREKKING INSIDE WITH TWO TRIBALS....A SMALL
RIVULET WE CROSSED... AS I STARTED MY JOURNEY IN A PARTICULAR DIRECTION, THE TRIBALS
SAID....'WE CANT COME BEYOND THIS...WE HAVE NEVER VENTURED THIS TERRAIN...SO KINDLY PERMIT
US TO GO BACK TO OUR HAMLET'.... I SMILED AT THEM ... THANKED THEM AND BID BYE...I WAS SLOWLY
WALKING...THE SUN WAS SETTING AND IN TWILIGHT SEEING BECOMES DIFFICULT...U CAN ALWAYS SEE
BETTER DURING DAY AND LESS DURING NIGHT...BUT TWILIGHT ALMOST BLINDS A PERSON...SO I
THOUGHT OF STAYING BACK SUM TIME....COULD LOCATE A ROCK BELOW A TREE...I JUST LIED DOWN ON
THE ROCK SINCE IT WAS A BIT FLAT AT THE TOP AND SLEPT... WELL PAST MIDNIGHT, SUM ONE WOKE
ME UP WITH A LANTERN IN HAND.... A VERY OLD LADY WITH A BEAMING SMILE, ASKED ME....HAVE YOU
LOST YOUR WAY , MY CHILD....I SAID...SUM HOW I HAD A DESIRE TO VISIT THIS PART OF THE FOREST
FOR LONG...SO THE DESIRE GOT FULFILLED TODAY...AND NOW I AM ABLE TO SEE U...SHE TOOK ME TO A
SMALL HUT NOT TOO FAR FROM THAT PLACE...SHE GAVE ME SOME RICE PORRIDGE TO DRINK...AFTER A
WHILE I HAD THE FORTUNE OF LISTENING TO THE NADA BRAHMAM OF THE AKSHARAS OF INDRA
SABHA...IN PRAYOGA SASTRA IT IS CALLED 'KAAVEERI'....ITS A VERY RARE PART OF PRAYOGA SASTRA...
AS SHE SANG I HAD TO LEARN AND IT WAS A SESSION WHICH TOOK 78 HOURS...AFTER THIS SESSION, A
QUESTION WILL BE ASKED...AND IF THE QUESTION IS ANSWERED WRONGLY OR NOT THE EXPECTED
SATISFACTION, WE WILL FORFEIT ALL THAT AND CANT REMEMBER WHAT WAS TAUGHT...SO ONCE THE
SESSION WAS OVER...SHE ASKED ME A QUESTION...'HOW IS IT THAT U HAVE COME IN TO THIS PART OF
THE FOREST WITHOUT BEING SCARED'?
I SAID..'DEAR GOD...THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE WHEN NOBODY ELSE WAS'...
SHE WAS ELATED WITH THE REPLY AND SHE ALLOWED ME TO PROSTRATE HER...I JUST TURNED AND
WALKED AWAY....THESE MEMORIES OF 'INDRANI' ALWAYS REMAIN WITH ME....LORDS GRACE...

32. MAITREYI GAVE BIRTH TO TWINS....TWO BOYS...SURYA AND PRAKASA.... THESE TWO GREW
TOGETHER AND THEIR VIEWS TOO WERE SIMILAR...AT THE AGE OF 20 SURYA FELL IN LOVE WITH A GIRL
BY NAME KATYAYANI...PRAKASA TOO DEVELOPED SIMILAR FEELINGS....BOTH OF THEM APPROACHED
MAITREYI FOR A SOLUTION...MAITREYI WENT IN TO DEEP MEDITATION TO CLEAR UP HER MIND BEFORE
GIVING HER VERDICT ON THE SUBJECT...IN HER YOGA NIDRA OF TRANSCENDENCE, SHE COULD LOOK IN
TO THE FUTURE... SHE OPENED HER EYES AND SAID THE BOYS CANNOT MARRY THAT GIRL...
A COUPLE OF DAYS BACK, A TWIN (BOYS) WERE BORN TO SUM ONE WHO IS A YOGA INSTRUCTOR...

PANT....TOOK A TAXI FROM PARK STREET TO BALLYGUNJE... WE CROSSED A FEW LANES...AND THEN I
ASKED THE TAXI TO STOP OUTSIDE A HOUSE...LOTS OF RUSH...AS I GOT DOWN FROM THE CAR, ALL
COMRADES CAME, RECEIVED ME AND TOOK ME INSIDE....THEIR LEADER HAD PASSED AWAY...THEY
BROUGHT A FLOWER GARLAND AND GAVE IT TO ME...I GARLANDED THE LEADER AND PAID MY
RESPECTS...MY JOB WAS OVER...I CAME OUT...LEFT FOR SUNDERBANS FOREST...TRAVELLED IN A
BOAT....GOT DOWN ON A MARSHY PATCH...I WAS JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PLACE....I COULD
SEE THE TREE...BELOW THE TREE WAS A PLANT...ON A CAREFUL INSPECTION I COULD SPOT THE
BEETLE SITTING ON ONE OF THE LEAVES...I WAS FILLED WITH JOY...FROM MY BAG I CAREFULLY TOOK
OUT ANOTHER BEETLE AND KEPT IT BY THE SIDE OF THE BEETLE ON THE PLANT....THE BEETLE I HAD
CARRIED WAS THE ONE WHICH I TOOK OUT FROM THE GARLAND...IT HAS TAKEN ME 845 YEARS FOR ME
TO UNITE THESE TWO SOULS.......LORDS GRACE...

34. A COUPLE OF DAYS BACK, I WENT TO JUBILEE BUS STAND....I WAS WAITING PATIENTLY FOR THAT
FAMILY...THEY ARE GOING TO SHOLAPUR....THEY GOT DOWN FROM THE AUTO...I JUST TOWARDS THEM
AND SAID I WILL CARRY THEIR LUGGAGE...THE ELDERLY PERSON ASKED ...HOW MUCH R U
EXPECTING?....I SAID...RS.20/-...HE SAID I CAN GIVE ONLY RS.10/-...I SAID OK...SINCE I CANT SQUAT DOWN
I CALLED A YOUNG LAD TO KEEP THE SUITCASE ON MY HEAD.. THERE WERE TWO MORE BAGS WHICH I
HELD IT IN MY LEFT HAND...I HELD THE SUITCASE ON MY HEAD WITH RIGHT HAND....I ASKED THE BOY TO
TAKE WHATEVER MONEY WAS THERE IN MY POCKET...THE BOY WAS HAPPY WHEN HE SAW A COUPLE
OF RS.100/- NOTES....LUCKY FOR THE FAMILY THE BUS TO SHOLAPUR WAS JUST COMING OUT OF THE
BUS STAND....WE ALL RUSHED NEAR THE BUS...SLOWLY ALL THE 4 MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY GOT IN TO
BUS...THE OLD MAN FORGOT TO GIVE ME THE MONEY...AS SOON AS THE BUS STARTED MOVING I JUST
SHOUTED AT THE OLD MAN...'MY COOLIE'....HE JUST THREW A 10 RUPEE NOTE FROM THE MOVING BUS...I
JUST COLLECTED THE MONEY AND TOOK MY CAR FROM PARKING LOT AND WENT STRAIGHT TO SANATH
NAGAR...THERE WILL A PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED PERSON SEEKING ALMS..I HANDED OVER THIS RS.10
GIVEN BY THE OLD MAN AND ADDITIONALLY PAID ANOTHER RS.468/- TO HIM....HE WAS VERY HAPPY... I
TOO WAS VERY JOYOUS....I THANKED THE LORD...LORDS GRACE..

35. IN ONE WAY, I AM A CLEARING AND FORWARDING AGENT (C & F)....

WHENEVER LORD PERMITS DURING MY VISITS TO MADURAI, I GO TO MEENAKSHI TEMPLE......I LIKE THE
BEAUTIFUL SCULPT WORKS IN THE TEMPLE AND I KEEP WONDERING AT THE BEAUTY....I KEEP
WATCHING THE SCULPTURE OF GREAT SAINTS ,ANIMALS , DAMSELS, DEMI GODS, GODS ETC.,....REALLY
THEY ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL...SO I ENJOY SEEING THEM......DURING AN EGOLESS MOMENT GOD HAD
ENTERED THE HEART AND MIND OF THE STHAPATHIS AND HAS GIVEN US SUMTHING VERY
BEAUTIFUL....THIS IS HOW I LOOK AT IT... ONE DAY I WAS STANDING AND ADMIRING THE BEAUTY OF A
NUDE APSARA ON ONE OF THE PILLARS......A PERSON KNOWN TO ME ACCIDENTALLY CAME THERE AND
SAW ME SEEING THE APSARA...
HE ASKED...GURUJI, WHY DO U SEE ALL THIS IN A TEMPLE?
I SMILED AND SAID....BECAUSE ITS THERE...
I DONT THINK HE UNDERSTOOD ME......FROM THAT DAY WHENEVER HE SEES ME ON ROAD ESPECIALLY
WHILE HIS GOING WITH HIS WIFE, HE RUNS AWAY.. I LAUGH AT HIM GLEEFULLY....

36. YESTERDAY SOMETHING INTERESTING HAPPENED... I INVOKED MY GOOD FRIEND SUBHA, AN

YAKSHINI.... WHEN I HAVE SUM THING VERY INTIMATE TO DISCUSS, SHE IS THE BEST COMPANION, FOR
SHE CAN LOOK IN TO THINGS IN DEPTH AND ADVICE.. YAKSHA RAJAN AND YAKSHINIS R NOT THE WAY
THEY ARE PORTRAYED.. PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE HAVE STARTED TALKING ABOUT THEM
THAT TOO NEGATIVELY.... THEY ARE ONE OF THE BEST COSMIC COMPANIONS OF A TRUE PRAYOGI... ITS
LORDS PURE MERCY AND GRACE THAT I AM ASSOCIATED WITH THEM... THEIR WAY OF LOOKING AT
THINGS WHETHER MUNDANE OR SPIRITUAL IS PAR EXCELLENCE... THE KIND OF WORK THEY DO, DUE
TO THEIR LOVE FOR THE COSMIC NATURE IS TREMENDOUS...I AM OVERWHELMED BY THEIR
COMPASSION..LORDS GRACE...

37. SUM ONE SAID...MY WIFE DOESNT LOVE ME ANY MORE...I SAID...MY LOVE WITH U IS

FRIENDS LOVE....MY LOVE TO U IS UNCONDITIONAL AND IS NOT OUT OF PITY THAT SUM ONE IS NOT
LOVING U....DONT LOVE A PERSON OUT OF PITY... IF U LOVE SUM ONE LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY......AT
THE SAME TIME WHEN THE PERSON STARTS COMPLAINING ABOUT HIS KIN AND KITH...DONT KEEP
HEARING AND START BELIEVING WHATEVER HE/SHE SAYS...FOR YOU KNOW ONLY ONE SIDE....BETTER
ADVICE THE PERSON TO SETTLE IT IN HOUSE...

ONE OF MY DISCIPLES CAME TO ME AND SAID...GURUJI..IM SEARCHING FOR HAPPINESS BUT IM NOT
FINDING IT..I SAID..SEARCHING FOR HAPPINESS IS ONE OF THE CHIEF SOURCES OF UNHAPPINESS...SO
DROP IT... I DONT THINK HE CAUGHT MY POINT...

I HAVE SEEN THE LORDS GRACE FLOW IN MY LIFE...
I HAVE ONLY ONE DESIRE THAT ALL SHOULD BE BLESSED WITH HIS GRACE..

39. PEOPLE ALWAYS WANT TO KNOW REASONS FOR ANYTHING I DO OR SUM ONE ELSE DOES OR IF
THEY R ASKED TO DO....THEY SEE SUMTHING WHICH THEY CANNOT UNDERSTAND AND IMMEDIATELY
THEY WANT TO KNOW THE REASON....THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO WONDER AT IT....EVEN IF THEY WONDER
INITIALLY NEXT AFTER SUM TIME THEY WANT TO KNOW THE REASONING BEHIND IT...MANY OF US R NOT
ABLE TO ENJOY LIFE WONDERING....REASONING SPOILS THAT WONDER....LORD IS SO BEAUTIFUL...HE
EXISTS IN ALL FORMS...HIS GRACE IS THE VERY CAUSE OF EXISTENCE AND DESTRUCTION TOO....HE IS
BEYOND REASONING... HE IS BEYOND TIME....THATS WHY HE IS CALLED KAALA SAMHARA
MURTHY....KAALA IS TIME....REASONING IS TIME....HE IS BEYOND THAT REASONING....HE IS WONDER AND
WONDER ALONE...BEYOND A CERTAIN POINT IN LIFE WHEN WE REACH A POINT, THINGS CANNOT BE
FURTHER REASONED OUT, OUR HEART OVERTAKES THE MIND AND RESULTS IN TOTAL SURRENDER TO
LORD SUPREME....

40. HABITS DIE HARD....

I KNOW A GENTLEMAN....AS A PERSON VERY NICE GUY....HE WAS A TOP EXECUTIVE IN AN MNC WHEN HE

THINGS WHICH HE FEELS NECESSITY AND KEEPS PAYING THE ENTIRE SALARY OF 7OK ON CREDIT
CARDS.... THE GIRL ALSO ENCOURAGES THE BOY TO SPEND AND KEEPS CRIBBING...ON ONE SIDE THEY

45. TODAY MORNING A COUPLE HAVE COME FROM DELHI TO MEET ME....THEY R A VERY NICE COUPLE
WHO DO A LOT OF PUBLIC SERVICE......VERY PHILANTHROPIC PEOPLE....THEIR DAUGHTER RECENTLY
GOT MARRIED WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT TO A BOY WHO BELONGS TO A DIFFERENT RELIGION....LOTS
OF CONFUSION IN THEIR FAMILY BECAUSE OF THIS MARRIAGE...NOTHING CAN TAKE PLACE WITHOUT
THE WILL OF LORD FOR LORD IS THE DOER...SUM PPL HAVE TOLD THEM THAT SUM BLACK MAGIC HAS
BEEN DONE ON THEM....SINCE THEY KNOW ME VERY WELL THEY CAME TO ASCERTAIN THE
TRUTH...THEY WERE TELLING ME MANY THINGS WHICH I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND....I AM A VERY DULL
HEADED BOY...MANY THINGS DONT GO INSIDE AT ALL...LEAVE ALONE UNDERSTANDING THEM...INDIA IS
FULL OF EXPERTS WHO ADVISE ON BLACK MAGIC WHITE MAGIC GREEN MAGIC....ALL COLORS OF
MAGIC....I KNOW ONLY ONE MAGIC....IE., BRITTANIA PURE MAGIC....REALLY I LIKE THAT BISCUIT.TASTES
TOO GUD...ONE MORE MAGIC I LIKE IS THAT P.C.SORKAR.HE IS AN EXCELLENT ARTIST....I KNOW LIFE

COUPLE AND OFFER PRAYERS TO LORD...LORD PLEASE DAWN PEACE IN THIS FAMILY....

46. WE CANNOT TRAIN ANYONE TO BE GRACIOUS....

THE OTHER DAY I SAW A WOMAN ONE OF MY SISHYA CAME TO ME AND CRIED THAT HIS WIFE IS
BEATING HIM..AND IS THERE ANY SOLUTION? I SAID STRAIGHT AWAY IF U CANT WITHSTAND THE BOUTS
BETTER DIVORCE HER...HE SAID HE CANT...HE SAID I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY SHE BEATS ME... I SAID
ITS ALL REPRESSED FEELING RUNNING DOWN TO THOUSANDS OF YEARS...THE 'VASANA' IS STILL
THERE..ITS IN ONE CORNER OF THE MIND...IT KEEPS SURFACING AND HENCE THE REVENGE... EITHER
THE UNDERSTANDING SHOULD BE TO THAT EXTENT THAT BOTH R ABLE TO LOOK AT EACH OTHER WITH
THE OTHER'S EYES OR MARRIAGE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY... IF MARRIAGE IS TAKEN IN A
SERIOUS SENSE THEN THERE IS EVERY CHANCE THAT THE HUSBAND OR WIFE WILL ABUSE EACH
OTHER ONE WAY OR OTHER... I ALSO TOLD HIM SHE MUST BE DOING SAVITRI VRITAM SHORTLY...HE
SAID YES...HE SAID SHE WILL FAST THE ENTIRE DAY AT TEMPLE...DO PUJA..AND THEN CUM HOME...I
SAID WE SHD DO SUMTHING ABOUT THIS...SHE WILL CERTAINLY PRAY THAT I NEED THE SAME HUSBAND
IN THE NEXT BIRTH ALSO, SINCE U CAN BE VICTIMISED ONCE AGAIN... I SAID ...U ALSO BE ON VRITAM ON
THAT DAY IN THE TEMPLE...JUST HIDE SUM WHERE THAT SHE CANNOT SEE U... U PRAY THAT U DONT
NEED HER NEXT TIME..DO POOJA AND CUM BACK HOME... NOW GOD WILL BE IN DILEMMA... BUT WHEN
HE PURSUES UR AND HER RECORD HE WILL KNOW THE REASON BEHIND UR REQUEST...HE MAY GRANT
U ANOTHER GIRL IN THE NEXT BIRTH...BUT WE MAY NOT KNOW HOW MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS SHE
MIGHT HAVE BEEN REPRESSED AND WHAT WILL BE THE DEGREE OF REVENGE AGAINST U....
UNFORTUNATELY THIS BHARAT MAHAAN DESH HAS REPRESSED WOMEN FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
AND THAT IS THERE IN THE UNCONSCIOUS PART OF MIND AND WOMEN IN SUM HOMES MISBEHAVE WITH
MEN...REALLY THIS IS PITIABLE...
FOR CHANGE FROM THE PRIEST FOR RS.10/- TO DROP RE.1/- IN HIS PLATE IN THE TEMPLE....SHE
LOOKED QUITE RICH WITH A LOT OF JEWELS ON HER AND A CHAUFFEUR DRIVEN INNOVA WAITING FOR
HER OUTSIDE THE TEMPLE...SHE WAS SEEN ARGUING WITH THE OLD MAN OUTSIDE THE TEMPLE SAFE
GUARDING HER SANDALS... AFTER SHE LEFT I WENT TO THE POOJARI INSIDE THE TEMPLE AND GAVE
HIM RS.500/- AND TOLD HIM THAT THE WOMAN WHO ASKED HIM THE CHANGE FOR RS.10/- ASKED ME TO
HAND OVER THIS AMOUNT TO HIM...HE WAS LOOKING AT ME IN DISBELIEF....I WENT TO THE OLD MAN
OUTSIDE THE TEMPLE WHO WAS GUARDING THE SANDALS AND GAVE HIM RS.100/- AND TOLD HIM THAT
THE WOMAN WHO WAS ARGUING WITH HIM HAD ASKED ME TO HAND OVER THE AMOUNT...HE ALSO
GAVE A LOOK IN DIS BELIEF...I PURCHASED SUM LOAVES OF BREAD AND MINERAL WATER BOTTLES AND
WITH RS.50/- I GAVE IT TO THOSE NEEDY..( AROUND 10 PPL WERE THERE)...I TOLD ALL OF THEM THAT
THE LADY WHO CAME IN THE INNOVA CAR HAD ASKED ME TO DISTRIBUTE THE BREAD WATER AND THE
MONEY....I WAS VERY GLAD...THEY ALL WOULD HAVE BLESSED HER... IT WILL GO A LONG WAY IN HER
LIFE AND THAT BLESSINGS WILL TAKE CARE OF HER FAMILY AND CHILDREN....

47. DANCE BY THE GODDESS....

A FEW YEARS BACK I WAS AT A HOTEL TAKING LUNCH AT ERODE IN TAMILNADU... A ZAMINDAR FROM
GOBICHETTYPALAYAM WHO IS MY FRIEND SAW ME IN THE HOTEL AND SAID, I WAS SEARCHING FOR MY
LORD FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS AND I AM FORTUNATE TO FIND HIM TODAY... I WAS VERY HAPPY TO
HEAR THIS NEWS SINCE HE COULD FIND THE LORD...THEN I UNDERSTOOD WHAT HE MEANT...HE WAS
MEANING ME....I SAID I KNOW U R STUPID BUT TODAY ONLY I HV CUM TO KNOW U R A SWINE...POOR
FELLOW HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO REACH ME BUT HE COULDNT....HE SAID I HV TO CUM WITH HIM TO HIS
HOME....HIS DAUGHTER-IN-LAW EVERY DAY EVENING AT 6PM DANCES OUT SIDE THE HOUSE AND SHE
WAS CLAIMING THAT THEIR KULA DEVATA BANNARI AMMAN HAD COME... A BIG CROWD GATHERS TO
WATCH THIS.... I SAID I WILL BE THERE AT HIS PLACE THAT DAY BY 6 PM.....
.I GAVE HIM A PROMISE SINCE HE KNOWS I DONT KEEP UP MY WORD...I PROCEEDED TO GOBI....AT 6 PM
OUT SIDE HIS HOUSE THERE WAS A BIG CROWD....SHE WAS DANCING BEAUTIFULLY...SUM WHAT LIKE
CHANDRAMUKHI...'RA RA'...ALL THE PEOPLE WERE TREMBLING AND ZAMINDAR WAS LOOKING AT ME....I
CALLED THE ZAMINDAR NEAR TO ME AND TOLD HIM...WITH LORD'S GRACE I CAN SOLVE IT...BUT HE
SHOULD NOT OBJECT IF I DO SOMETHING OR ACT THE WAY I DEEMED FIT...HE SAID...JUST STOP THIS
....THAT'S ENUF...SHE WAS WEARING A BIG GOLDEN CHAIN....I JUST AS THOUGH FROM NOWHERE
ENTERED FROM BEHIND THE CROWD STRAIGHT WENT TO HER AND PULLED HER GOLDEN CHAIN....FOR
A MOMENT SHE FORGOT SHE WAS BANNARI AMMAN AND WAS KEEN IN NOT LOOSING THE CHAIN....WE
TOOK HER INSIDE THE HOUSE....I ASKED HER AS TO WHY SHE WAS PLAYING THIS GAME...SHE
CONFESSED BEFORE ALL THAT HER MOTHER-IN-LAW USED TO HARASS HER A LOT AND SHE HAD TO
PLAY THIS GAME TO CONTROL HER....I ADVISED THE FAMILY TO CONDUCT THEMSELVES BETTER WITH
THIS GIRL....I THANKED BANNARI AMMAN FOR HAVING SOLVED THE PROBLEM....

48. JOKE...

THE OTHER DAY I HAD TO TRAVEL IN A BUS FROM KOTI TO DILSUKNAGAR.. I WAS SITTING IN SEAT.... A
COLLEGE GIRL BOARDED THE BUS AT CHADERGHAT...I GOT UP AND OFFERED THE SEAT.... SHE SAT
NEAR THE WINDOW AND ASKED ME TO BE SEATED NEXT TO HER...THEN IN THE NEXT STOP A GROUP OF
BOYS GOT IN TO THE BUS.... A BOY WAS STANDING CLOSE TO MY SEAT AND HAD HIS HAND HOLDING
THE HANDLE ON MY SEAT...HE WAS STARING AT THE GIRL...AND THE GIRL WAS IGNORING
HIM...SUDDENLY THE BUS JERKED AND HIS HAND WENT IN TO THE BACK SIDE OF MY SHIRT FROM THE
TOP....HE COULDNT REMOVE IT....POOR FELLOW WITH HIS HAND BEHIND MY BACK HE HAD TO GET
DOWN WITH ME ... HE FELT AS THOUGH POSSESSED AND WAS WALKING WITH ME TILL BABA
TEMPLE...EVERY ONE WAS SEEING THIS TAMASHA....A YOUNG BOY HAND INSIDE THE BACK OF MY SHIRT
FROM THE TOP AND PARADED ON THE ROAD....BEFORE BABA HE COULD REMOVE HIS HAND... LORDS
GRACE... LORD MADE ME TO LAUGH FOR A VERY LONG TIME...

49. A FEW YEARS AGO,I WAS SITTING WITH A GREAT PERSON....HE IS MY GOOD FRIEND.... HE IS A GREAT
EXPONENT OF BHAGAVAD GITA.... HE WAS TALIKING TO ME ABOUT CONTROL OF MIND... WE WERE
SITTING ON A SOFA SIDE BY SIDE AS WE WERE TALKING...SOME MORE OF HIS FAMILY MEMBERS AND
FRIENDS HAD GATHERED....AFTER ABOUT TWO HOURS OF LECTURE, I STARTED ASKING QUESTIONS ON
GITA TO HIM ON POINTS OF DOUBT....AS I WAS TALKING TO HIM I HELD HIS RIGHT HAND WITH MY LEFT
HAND...I WAS GOING ON ASKING HIM QUESTIONS... I DIDNT LEAVE HIS HAND...I HELD IT TIGHTLY TO SEE
THAT HE DOESNT LEAVE THE SOFA.... AFTER ANOTHER TWO HOURS OF DISCUSSION HE WAS FEELING
VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND WANTED TO LEAVE MY HAND...BUT I TIGHTENED TO SEE THAT HE DOESNT
LEAVE.. ANOTHER ONE HOUR PASSED....NOW HE REALLY BECAME VERY ANGRY...HIS FACE WAS
SHOWING....HE WAS FUMING..I WAS JUST TELLING HIM...'CONTROL'...CONTROL'...CONTROL'...NO ONE
COULD UNDERSTAND...FINALLY AFTER ANOTHER ONE HOUR I LEFT HIS HAND AND HE WENT RUNNING
TO THE TOILET....HE CAME OUT AFTER 20 MINUTES FROM THE TOILET...NOW WHEN HE CAME BACK HE
SAID....IN FUTURE WITH U BY MY SIDE I WILL NOT TALK OF CONTROLLING THE MIND....ANOTHER FIVE
MINUTES HAD U HELD MY HAND, IT WOULD HAVE EXPLODED...I HAD A HEARTY LAUGH AND LEFT THAT
PLACE....

50. WHERE IS HE? JUST SEARCHED THREE FOUR TIMES IN THE ADJOINING TWO LANES...JUST MISSED
HIM BY A WHISKER...OH LORD ...SO CLOSE AND MISSED...ONCE GAIN LET ME SEE MY LUCK...I DROVE
BACK IN HE SAME LANE..HE WAS STANDING THERE RINGING THE BELL...SON PAPPDI WALA...AHA..I GAVE
HIM RS.10 AND HE GAVE PAPPDI...AHA VERY DELICIOUS...REAL GOOD....IT TOUCHED MY HEART...I GAVE
HIM A TIGHT HUG....HE WAS STUNNED...I SAID...REAL GOOD STUFF...JUST KEEP THIS WITH U...BY THE
TIME HE REALISED WHAT IT WAS I VANISHED....REAL GOOD SONE PAPPADI.....EVEN 742 YEARS BACK HE
GAVE A SWEET TO ME...STILL THAT TASTE TOO IS LINGERING....

51. ONE DAY I WAS STANDING NEAR A BUS STOP.....TWO MIDDLE AGED PEOPLE WERE TALKING IN A
HIGH PITCH ABOUT COURAGE, VALOR, BRAVERY ETC., THEY BOTH WERE QUITE HAPPILY SHARING
THEIR HONOURS AND ACHIEVEMENTS IN THEIR FIELD...I WAS STANDING THERE WITH MY BACK
TOWARDS THEM AND WAS TALKING TO A BIG TREE NEAR BY.......BUT THEIR VOICE WAS MORE A NOISE
AND MY CONVERSATION WITH THE AKSHARAS ON THE TREE WAS GETTING DISTURBED...SO I WENT
NEAR THEM AND POLITELY SAID..
SIRS, CAN U PLEASE LOWER YOUR VOICE A BIT...IT IS DISTURBING MY CONVERSATION...
SIR1 ASKED....I DONT FIND ANY ONE HERE OTHER THAN WE THREE...WITH WHOM R U CONVERSING?
I JUST POINTED TOWARDS THE TREE..
SIR2 SAID...HAVE U GONE NUTS?
ME...NO SIRS...I AM IN A CONVERSATION...HENCE THE REQUEST TO U BOTH...
THEY WERE NOT CONVINCED...
SO FINALLY I SAID...
SIRS, I KNOW TOO WELL THAT U BOTH R VERY COURAGEOUS AND BRAVE....U HAVE WON MANY AWARDS
TOO....SO THIS SHOULD NOT MATTER TO U...I AM JUST IN CONVERSATION WITH A GROUP HERE WHICH
YOU CANNOT SEE...BUT I KNOW VERY WELL U WONT BE SCARED ABOUT ALL THIS...SO JUST REDUCE
YOUR VOICE AND SPEAK SO THAT I CAN COMPLETE MY CONVERSATION AND U TOO CAN HAVE UR
CONVERSATION...
THEY BOTH JUST JUMPED IN TO TAXI AND LEFT THE PLACE...VERY FUNNY GUYS...

52. THE OTHER DAY WITH A FRIEND , WE HAD TO VISIT A FACTORY, A FARM HOUSE AND A HOME...
THE OWNER ASKED ME ABOUT VARIOUS VAASTHU ISSUES CONCERNING THE FACTORY....AT HOME HE
REQUESTED ME TO SEE THE HOROSCOPES... I SAW ALL OF THEM...I SUGGESTED SUM
PRAYASCHITHAMS TO BE DONE FOR THE KIDS WELFARE....WHEN WE WERE RETURNING BACK FROM
THEIR PLACE, MY FRIEND ASKED ME...DO U FOLLOW VAASTHU? DO U PERFORM PRAYASCHITHAMS AS
PER ASTROLOGY TO YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS? I SMILED AND SAID....'WHEN GOD IS WITH
ME BECAUSE OF HIS MERCY AND GRACE ON ME, I DONT NEED VAASTHU OR ASTROLOGY... SINCE
PEOPLE HAVE A BELIEF IN ALL THIS MORE THAN GOD, MY GURUS TAUGHT ME ALL THIS TO KEEP THOSE
PEOPLE GOING....FINALLY EVERY ONE LEARNS THAT "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER" TO LORD ALONE
WORKS'...

Golden words of Guruji

1. LORD'S WAYS R MYSTERIOUS....NO LOGIC OR SCIENCE CAN EXPLAIN HIM...HE IS WONDERFUL AND HE
HAS TO BE WONDERED.... INFACT THERE IS NO GENDER FOR HIM... HE IS BEYOND ALL TIME...HE IS
BEYOND SENSES... HE IS BEYOND THE GUNAS... HE IS THE DOER... WE WERE TRAINED TO SEE HIM IN
ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING... ITS HIS GRACE WE ENJOY HIM THOROUGHLY... U CALL IT NATURE... U
CALL IT GOD.... U CALL IT CONSCIOUSNESS... U CALL IT AWARENESS... U CALL IT HUMAN... U CALL IT
ANIMALS, PLATS, TREES, SEAS.... U CALL IT LIFE.... ITS ALL HIM AND HIM ALONE... WE SEE HIM... WE EAT
HIM... WE SMELL HIM... WE TASTE HIM... WE FEEL HIM... WE KISS HIM... WE HUG HIM... WE SLEEP WITH
HIM... HE IS INSCRUTABLE....HE IS BEYOND QUESTIONING.... HE IS BEYOND REASONING... ANYTHING HE
DOES IS OUT OF PURE LOVE AND COMPASSION.... PRAISE THE LORD...

2. TO ME EXTREMISTS AND TERRORISTS R EVEN AMONG FAMILIES AND FRIENDS...THE OTHER DAY I
TOLD A SISHYA OF MINE THAT THE WAY HE BEHAVES IS NOT OK....HE GOT WILD....NOW A DAYS HE
SHOWS FACE....A VERY HANDSOME GUY NOW LOOKS LIKE A CHIMPANZEE....OR PROBABLY A MONKEY
TASTING GINGER....DONT I HAVE A MORAL RIGHT ON U TO CORRECT U? SHOULD U SHOW A FACE FOR
THAT...VERY SAD...THIS IS NOTHING ELSE BUT EXTREMISM...EXTREME BEHAVIOR...
IN A FAMILY A FIGHT WAS GOING ON....THE SON THREATENED THE PARENTS THAT HE WILL COMMIT
SUICIDE....THIS IS NOTHING ELSE BUT TERRORISM...HE WAS TERRORISING THE PARENTS....HE IS A
TERRORIST...TODAY IN EVERY HOUSE HOLD WE FIND THESE ACTS OF EXTREMISM AND
TERRORISM....WE NEED TO RISE ABOVE ALL THIS AND BE A BETTER PERSON...LET US SHOW CASE
OURSELF BY MAINTAING A BALANCE... SOME TIMES WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT OTHERS CANNOT
UNDERSTAND US...THIS WILL SOLVE ALL TYPES OF PROBLEMS IN THE FRIENDS CIRCLES AND THE
FAMILIES....ALLOW MUD TO SETTLE DOWN U WILL SEE MORE CLARITY IN YOUR MIND....

3. DROP THE GUILT....BECAUSE TO LIVE IN GUILT IS TO LIVE IN HELL...FURTHER YOU WILL BE SPREADING
THE NEGATIVE AURA TO OTHERS...YOU ARE NOT THE DOER...LORD IS THE DOER...TOTALLY SURRENDER
TO LORD AND FEEL GUILT FREE..

4. LOGIC OF THE MIND IS SOME TIMES TORTUROUS...

MAGIC OF THE HEART IS ALWAYS SOOTHENING..

5. LIFE IS MYSTERIOUS....IF U WANT TO ENJOY LIFE....DONT TRY TO UNRAVEL IT....DONT TRY TO REASON
IT OUT....IF U TAP AT ONE DOOR...IT WILL OPEN 1000S OF DOORS....UR REASONING WILL STAND
DEFEATED... LIFE WITHOUT REASONING IS THE BEST..LIVE MOMENT TO MOMENT.... DROWN TOTALLY IN
EACH MOMENT OF LIFE...DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE FUTURE... IT IS TAKEN CARE PROVIDED U
RESPECT THE GOLDEN MOMENT OF THE PRESENT...EXISTENCE IS GOD...AND GODLY TOO....

6. ITS BETTER WE LEARN TO IGNORE WHEN ANY ONE IS CAUSTIC WITH U....SUCH A PERSON'S WORDS
AT THAT POINT OF TIME IS FROM THE UNCONSCIOUS AND IT SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN DUE
RESPECT...TODAY MORNING AN OLD LADY HAPPENED TO SHOUT AT A YOUNGER GIRL...IT WAS TOTALLY
UNREASONABLE....BUT IN THE FIRST PLACE WHY TO GIVE SO MUCH IMPORTANCE TO THOSE
WORDS...WHEN SUM ONE SHOUTS AT U, U HV TO BCUM ALERT ONLY TO HEAR AND NOT TO
LISTEN...RESPECT THE PERSON FOR THEIR AGE BUT DONT GIVE RESPECT TO THE WORDS BY
LISTENING TO IT...ONCE U LISTEN TO IT U WILL GET UPSET AND PEOPLE WHO LOVE U WILL BE UPSET
BCOS U R UPSET....HOW SO EVER GOOD A PERSON MAY BE EVRY ONE CARRIES SUM NEGATIVITY IN
MIND AND TEND TO BE UNCONSCIOUS SOMETIMES...SO WHEN THEY R UNCONSCIOUS U BCUM ALERT
ONLY TO HEAR AND NOT REACT...WHEN THEY R CONSCIOUS...LISTEN TO THEM... IN THAT WAY WE CAN
ALWAYS MAINTAIN A GOOD HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP..

SHE...GURUJI....WHATZ THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 'LIKE' AND 'LOVE'?

ME...WHEN I 'LIKE' A FLOWER, I PLUCK IT....WHEN I LOVE A FLOWER, I WATER THE PLANT....

7. U SHOULD LOVE TO POSTPONE ANGER.....U SHOULD LOVE TO POSTPONE EGO...U SHOULD LOVE TO
POSTPONE YOUR POSSESSIVENESS... U SHOULD LOVE TO POSTPONE UR JEALOUSY....BUT THESE
THINGS R VERY SPORADIC AND INSTANTANEOUS...THE IDIOCY IS SUBTLY WE FEEL WE ARE GOING TO
LIVE FOR EVER...SO PRAYERS OR MEDITATION CAN WAIT...THESE THINGS CAN BE POSTPONED...GOD IS
A SUBJECT WHICH EVERYONE LOVES TO POSTPONE.....NOT TODAY...NOT NOW....SOME OTHER TIME WE
WILL SEE.... LIFE IS TEMPORARY AND SHORT LIVED...POSTPONE ANGER, PRIDE, EGO, JEALOUSY,
POSSESSIVENESS, GREED, LUST ETC., DONT POSTPONE GOD....DONT POSTPONE PRAYERS...DONT
POSTPONE MEDITATION....DONT POSTPONE CHARITY....

8. ALL OUR NOTIONS ABOUT TRUTH R NOT BASED ON ANY REALISATION OF FACT BUT BASED ON THE
CONDITIONING ONE HAS UNDERGONE IN LIFE AT VARIOUS STAGES.... HENCE THE PERCEPTIONS DIFFER
ACCORDING TO THE SCHOOL OF THOUGHT ONE IS NECESSARILY WEDDED TO... INFACT A NAKED TRUTH
IS BETTER THAN A DRESSED LIE... THE DRESSING HAS HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THE CONDITIONING AND
IT IS VERY DEEP ROOTED... ONE NEEDS A LOT OF COURAGE TO UNWIND AND BECOME NAKED TO ENJOY
THE TRUTH OF LIFE...UNLESS ONE BECOMES REBELLIOUS THIS MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE..

9. TO BE NUDE IS TO BE TRUE...FREE OF ANY INHIBITION...PERFECTION IS A INHIBITION, MANIA....ITS

VERY FAR FROM TRUTH.... I LOVE TO BE NUDE... I LOVE TO SEE OTHERS NUDE...I LOVE TO SEE MYSELF
NUDE....THATS THE STATE OF NIRVANA...DIGAMBARA...UTTERLY NAKED AND TRUE...NOTHING TO
HIDE..NOTHING TO SHY ABOUT....NOTHING TO CONCEAL....BARE TRUTH... DONT CONFUSE TRUTH WITH
PERFECTION.... TRUTH IS PERFECT UN TO ITSELF...BUT PERFECTION IS NOT NECESSARILY TRUTH....
TRUTH IS BEYOND THE FABRIC OF RIGHT AND WRONG....TRUTH IS BEYOND THE FABRIC OF GOOD AND
BAD... TRUTH IS BEYOND THE FABRIC OF PERFECTION AND IMPERFECTION... SO DROP THE IDEA THAT
ALL PERFECTLY EVOLVED STATES ARE TRUE.... ALL PERFECTLY EVOLVED STATES R MANAGED SO TO
BE SO....WHAT IS MANAGED SO TO BE SO IS NOT UTTERLY NAKED OR NUDE...HENCE MAY NOT BE
TRUE....LORDS GRACE..

10. UNLESS YOU ARE TOTALLY DESTROYED AS A MIND, THE COSMIC REALITY OF AN ANANDA NRITYA
WITH THE LORD IS IMPOSSIBLE....SO MY WHOLE IDEA IS TO CREATE A REBELLION IN YOUR HEART AND
THE DIRECT CONSEQUENCE IS THE MIND GETTING DESTROYED...SO DISCIPLES WITH MIND WILL FIND IT
DIFFICULT TO RESIST THE REBELLION IN THEIR HEART...THE EGO, THE PRIDE, THE BIG FELLA ATTITUDE
WILL GET DESTROYED...KINDNESS, LOVE, COMPASSION WILL START GROWING.... AT THIS STAGE
CERTAINLY BEING A PART OF THAT COSMIC DANCE IS POSSIBLE...LORDS GRACE..

11. BECAUSE U THINK U ALREADY KNOW IT........THE KNOWLEDGE U POSSESS BEING THE CULPRIT, THE
MIRACLES HAPPENING AROUND YOU ARE NOT VISIBLE TO U....

12. IT IS POSSIBLE TO TRAVEL ON OTHERS THOUGHTS...U JUST BE URSELF...VIRGIN WITH UR IDEAS AND
THOUGHTS... U R NOT THE OWNER OF YOUR THOUGHTS AND ULTIMATELY LORD IS OWNER...A THOUGHT
IS A THOUGHT...AND FROM IT STEMS THE FEELINGS...NEVER FEEL GUILTY ABOUT ANY FEELING FOR
THEY HAVE THEIR ORIGIN IN THOSE THOUGHTS THAT R NOT YOURS...LORD IS THE DOER... WHY HE
MAKES PPL THINK IN DIFFERENT WAYS OR WHY AT ALL HE THINKS UNIQUELY THRU EVERY ONE OF US
IS THE MYSTERY CALLED LIFE..

13. IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE OTHERS HAPPY IF ONE IS MISERABLE....

FIRST ONE'S HAPPINESS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OTHER'S HAPPINESS... UNLESS ONE REACHES THE
THRESHOLD OF ONE'S HAPPINESS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM/HER TO THINK OF OTHERS HAPPINESS...
EVERY THING STARTS WITH SELF AND THEN BECOMES SELF LESS... WHEN U R FULL WITH SELF THEN U
START THINKING LESS ABOUT URSELF AND ONWARD TO SELFLESS.... ONE SHOULD BE IN TOTAL PEACE
WITH ONESELF BEFORE THEY PROPAGATE THE MESSAGE OF PEACE TO OTHERS...ONE CANNOT BE
VIOLENT TO ONESELF AND PREACH NON VIOLENCE OUTSIDE...HENCE UNLESS ONE LOVES HIMSELF HE
CANNOT LOVE OTHERS... SUCH LOVE WILL ONLY BE FARCE...

14. HE WHO LIGHTLY PROMISES IS SURE TO KEEP BUT LITTLE FAITH...

HE WHO IS CONTINUALLY THINKING THING EASY IS SURE TO FIND THEM DIFFICULT...
THEREFORE THE SAGE SEES DIFFICULTY EVEN IN WHAT SEEMS EASY, AND SO NEVER HAS
DIFFICULTIES...

15. SOME ONE WAS GOING ON ASKING ME.... WHAT IS THIS? ....WHY IS IT LIKE THIS?....IS THIS TRUE?
ETC., I CAN ONLY SAY TO SUCH DOUBTING THOMASES ..I CAN ONLY GIVE U THE FLOWER BUT NOT THE
FRAGRANCE...YOU HAVE TO CLEAN YOUR NOSE AND MAKE IT MORE SENSITIVE SO THAT U CAN SMELL
THE FRAGRANCE.

16. ALERTNESS IN BEING CONSCIOUS MORE BACKED BY EXPERIENCE WITH ADVANCING AGE ONE
TENDS TO BE A SAGE...
THE BUTTERFLY STRUGGLES TO COME OUT OF THE COCOON...NEVER CUT OPEN THE COCOON IN THE
NAME OF COMPASSION FOR THAT STRUGGLE ONLY MAKES IT TO FLY....IF U DO IT U MAY HAVE TO
CARRY THE GUILT THRU OUT YOUR LIFE THAT U WERE THE CAUSE FOR THE BUTTERFLY NOT BEING
ABLE TO FLY....IN FACT NOT HELPING THE BUTTERFLY AS IT CUMS OUT OF THE COCOON IS BY ITSELF
AN ACT OF COMAPSSION....

17. FEMALE IS THE CLOSEST PROXIMITY TO NATURE FOR SHE CAN GIVE LIFE...RESPECT HER WITH ALL
DIGNITY FOR SHE IS AN EMBODIMENT OF MOTHER NATURE....

18. A MAN GOES TO OFFICE...DOES HIS BUSINESS...TAKES CARE OF HIS WIFE...KIN AND
KITH...KIDS...PARENTS...FRIENDS...ENJOYS CINEMA..GOES TO PARTY...MCDONALDS...KFC.....GOES TO
TEMPLES...DOES CHARITY....
LORD DAWNS ON HIM...
THE MAN IS STILL GOING TO OFFOICE...DOES HIS BUSINESS...TAKES CARE OF HIS WIFE..KIN AND
KITH..KIDS...PARENTS...FRIENDS...ENJOYS CINEMA...GOES TO PARTY...MCDONALDS...KFC...GOES TO
TEMPLES...DOES CHARITY...
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
THE DIFFERENCE WILL BE SO SUBTLE THAT HE WILL ONLY KNOW AND NOT ANY ONE ELSE...
IF OTHERS KNOW THE DIFFERENCE THEN BEWARE ITS A SHOW OFF..TRYING TO CREATE
IMPRESSION....IMPOSTOR....

19. LOVE MUST BE WITHOUT REASONING....SUM ONE IS BEAUTIFUL AND U LOVE...AFTER A FEW YEARS
THE BEAUTY MAY DROP.... SUM ONE IS RICH U LOVE...AFTER A FEW YEARS THE RICHNESS MAY LONGER
BE AN ATTRACTION AND U DROP... ATTRACTION IS NOT LOVE... IF U USE THE WORD 'LOVE'...THEN TWO
THINGS MUST FLOW FROM THE HEART...ONE IS 'NO REASONING' AND TWO IS
'UNCONDITIONALITY'...LOVE DEVOID OF REASONING IS THE BEST... THERE SHOULD BE NO
REASON...NEITHER THERE IS ANY SEASON...THEN U CAN LOVE EVERY ONE IN THIS
WORLD...EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD...

20. WHEN U LOVE WITH REASONS THEN IT IS NOT LOVE SINCE IT IS FROM MIND...ITS
BUSINESS...CALCULATIONS....LOGIC...
WHEN U LOVE WITHOUT REASONS THEN IT IS LOVE SINCE IT IS FROM THE HEART....

21. SUM ONE WAS ASKING ME WHETHER MONEY WILL GIVE LOVE...WHAT AN IDIOTIC QUESTION...MONEY
CAN DO CERTAIN THINGS...MONEY CANNOT DO CERTAIN THINGS... WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE
LIMITATIONS OF MONEY...MONEY CAN GET A HOUSE...A BMW CAR... A FRIDGE... PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT
OF SEX...BUT CERTAINLY NOT LOVE...MONEY IS EARNED MECHANICALLY....NO ORGANICS IN IT...LOVE IS
PURELY ORGANIC..

22. I KNOW A GENTLEMAN WHO CAME TO ME AND SAID....GURUJI I MEDITATE EVERY DAY FOR ONE
HOUR....I SAID OK....HE SAID....ITS WONDERFUL GURUJI...I SAID...OK...GURUJI LITERALLY I AM FLYING... I
SAID...OK THATS WONDERFUL....U NEED NOT SPEND ON AIR TICKETS....FURTHER HE SAID GURUJI I SEE
SUM TIMES LIGHTS....I ASKED HIM WHAT COLOR?...HE SAID RED YELLOW GREEN....I SAID THATS
FINE...PROBABLY DUE TO TOO MUCH AIR TRAVEL NOT ONLY BY CONVENTIONAL PLANES BUT ALSO DUE
TO TRAVEL BY MEDITATION THERE IS A LOT OF AIR TRAFFIC I SUPPOSE...SO THEY HAVE INSTALLED
TRAFFIC SIGNALS IN THE SPACE....I SMILED AND SAID R THERE ANY TRAFFIC POLICE THERE WHO WILL
BE HANDY INCASE OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION....HE DOESNT SPEAK TO ME THESE DAYS....

MEDITATION...GUESS WORK...

MEDICATION IS FOR CALMING THE BODY AND MEDITATION SOOTHENS THE MIND....MEDITATION AFTER
SOOTHENING THE MIND TAKES THE PERSON BEYOND THE MIND....SAGES CALL IT NO MIND....MAKES ONE
TO REALISE THE TRUE SELF....ONCE A PERSON REACHES THAT STAGE HE IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT BUT
NOT INDIFFERENT TO THE SOCIETY AROUND HIM....NO ONE KNOWS THAT HE IS AN ENLIGHTENED
SOUL....HE REMAINS THE SAME..HE JUST KEEPS DOING THE SAME WORK...KEEPS ATTENDING TO THE
DAILY ROUTINE....GOING OUT WITH KIDS WIFE TO MOVIES, SOCIALISING WITH FRIENDS, SPENDING TIME
ON FB, ENJOYING LIFE THE WAY HE HAS BEEN DOING ALL LONG....VISIBLY THERE IS NO CHANGE...SO
WHAT HAS REALLY MEDITATION BROUGHT ABOUT? THATS THE WONDER AND THATS THE
SUSPENSE....CAN U GUESS WHAT IT IS? Such a person has an all round vision of 360 degrees...he will b the
most balanced person...as said by CV u can't describe it...dumb person but tasting honey....

23. SUM ONE JUST CALLED ME NOW....HE SAID GURUJI IN OFFICE I HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM....I HAVE
WRONGLY BILLED SUM GOODS AND IN THE PROCESS I HAVE SENT EXCESS GOODS TO A TUNE OF 70
LACS....NOW I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO?...I SAID....DO U HAVE PATIENCE TO WAIT TILL YOUR MIND
SETTLES AND THE WATER IS CLEAR? CAN U REMAIN UNMOVING TILL THE RIGHT ACTION ARISES BY
ITSELF? HE COULDN'T THESE PHRASES AS HIS MIND IS IN A PERIL STATE SO I SAID DONT WORRY...

24. SUM ONE CLOSE TO ME SAW A PICTURE POSTED WITH MY WEARING A RUDRAKSHA MALA LIKE A
JANJAM...I JUST TOLD MY FRIEND THAT ITS A WAY TO ATTRACT PEOPLE...GIMMICKS....HE DOESNT
BELIVE THAT AND HE FEELS THERE IS A REASON FOR THAT...I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY IN LIFE
EVERYTHING NEEDS A REASONING...POOR GUY HE IS ONE MORE GUY WHO HAS FALLEN TO MY
GIMMICKS AND THE DECEPTIVE SMILE....GOD ALONE CAN SAVE HIM..."

25. NIRGUNA SWAROOPAYA NAMAHA....

LORD IS BEYOND GUNAS....THE HIDDEN MEANING IS UR MIND CANNOT RECOGNIZE HIM.....MIND
RECOGNIZES ONLY THINGS WITH QUALITY...IT CAN NEVER APPRECIATE ANYTHING WITHOUT
QUALITY....HENCE SINCE WE DWELL IN MIND WE FAIL TO RECOGNIZE THE COGNIZABLE LORD
OTHERWISE....HENCE ONE HAS TO TRAVEL BEYOND MIND...TO TRAVEL TO THE STAGE OF NIRGUNA, ONE
NEEDS TO LIVE WITH GUNAS....THEN TRANSCENDENCE IS POSSIBLE...BY AVOIDING MIND IF SUM ONE
TRIES TO GO IN TO NIRGUNA, IT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE...TRANSCENDENCE CANNOT BE ACHIEVED THRU
AVOIDANCE, BUT CAN BE ACHIEVED IF WE HAVE THE COURAGE TO LIVE WITH IT....THE DAY MIND DROPS
WE SEE THE NIRGUNA SWAROOPAM OF THE LORD....LORDS GRACE ...ENJOY..
26. WHY WAS I BORN....CHOICELESS..

27. MIND GAMES...

THERE WAS A LECTURE... A SANYASI WAS TALKING ABOUT LIFE...HE SAID...WE ARE BORN ALONE....WE
DIE ALONE IN THIS LIFE....HE JUST LOOKED AT ME AND SAID...IS THIS NOT TRUE?...NOW I SMELT
TROUBLE... I DUNNO WHY THIS SAINT WANTS TO PUT ME IN TROUBLE...HE WANTS TO SAY SUM THING
LET HIM SAY...WHY HE NEEDS MY APPROVAL....WHAT NONSENSE IS THIS...I JUST KEPT QUIET...HE
TORMENTED BY ASKING ME THRICE THE VERY SAME QUESTION....I SMILED AND SAID...YES WE CUM
ALONE AND WE GO ALONE...SO WE CREATE LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP SO THAT WHILE LIVING THIS LIFE WE
DONT FEEL ALONE.... HE GOT WILD AND WENT INSIDE... I SILENTLY LEFT THE PLACE...

28. THE VERY ATTITUDE OF SERIOUSNESS IN LIFE IS THE PRIME CAUSE OF ANXIETY....LIFE IS MORE A
PLAY AND WE CONVERT IT IN TO A GAME...DONT BE TOO SERIOUS ABOUT LIFE....DONT HAVE GOALS IN
LIFE...THEN U WILL BCUM SERIOUS...ALLOW LIFE TO POSSESS U...U CANNOT POSSESS LIFE...ENJOY THIS
VERY MOMENT OF LIFE AND ALLOW THE NEXT MOMENT TO UNFOLD ITSELF....DONT SPOIL THE MYSTERY
OF LIFE THRU QUESTIONING... SURRENDER TOTALLY TO LIFE...FOR LIFE IS GOD AND GODLY TOO..

29. SUM ONE TOLD ME...I WANT TO KNOW THE ESSENCE OF MY TRUE SELF...I SAID IF U WANT TO DROWN
U HV TO GO IN SEARCH OF DEEP WATERS, NOT THE SHALLOW ONES...

30. DISCIPLE....GURUJI WHY DO U KEEP LOOKING ACROSS EVERY ONE IN THE CROWD?
I SMILED AND SAID....I AM STILL SEARCHING FOR A TRUE AFFECTIONATE DISCIPLE WHO LOVES ME FOR
WHAT I AM...

31. HABITS DIE HARD....OLD AGE DOES NOT NECESSARILY BRING ELDERLINESS..
WHATEVER U HAVE BEEN DOING U CONTINUE TO DO.... EVEN AFTER RETIREMENT PEOPLE DONT SHED
THEIR EGO OR AUTHORITY... THEY FEEL INSECURED... UNFORTUNATELY THEY HAVE GROWN IN AGE
BUT NOT IN MATURITY...PEOPLE GET OLD BUT A VERY FEW BECOME ELDERLY...
AURANGAZEB KEPT HIS FATHER SHAHJAHAN UNDER HOUSE ARREST AND TOOK OVER THE REINS OF
THE KINGDOM...SHAHJAHAN REQUESTED AURANGAZEB TO GIVE HIM 30 BOYS SO THAT HE CAN TEACH
QURAN TO THEM... AURANGAZEB WAS REALLY SURPRISED FOR TO HIS KNOWLEDGE HIS FATHER HAS
NEVER READ QURAN LEAVE ALONE BEING A MASTER OF IT TO TEACH IT...SO ...
AURANGAZEB ASKED...NEVER I HAVE SEEN U READING QURAN AT ANY TIME....U DONT HAVE ANY
KNOWLEDGE OF IT...HOW CAN U TEACH IT?
SHAHJAHAN REPLIED....MY DEAR SON...I ASKED JUST LIKE THAT... MY INTENTIONS R DIFFERENT.... ALL
LONG I HAVE BEEN THE KING... I ALWAYS BOSSED AROUND COMMANDING MY MINISTERS, ADVISORS,
ADMINISTRATORS... U HAVE SUDDENLY SNATCHED THE KINGDOM FROM ME...SO IF U GIVE ME 30 BOYS...
I WILL START MY OWN EMPIRE WITH THEM... I WILL MAKE SUM BOYS AS MINISTERS, SUM OTHER AS
ADMINISTRATORS, SUM AS GUARDS, SUM AS PEOPLE...KEEP COMMANDING THEM..SO THAT I DONT FEEL
THAT I AM NO LONGER A RULER...

32. MAHAVEER WAS ONCE ASKED...

WHAT DID YOU GAIN BY PRAYER AND MEDITATION...
MAHAVEER...NOTHING I GAINED....IN FACT I LOST A FEW THINGS...ANGER, DEPRESSION, JEALOUSY,
IRRITATION, INSECURITY ETC.,.........

33. ALL MY KARMAS LORD HAD DISSOLVED...

MY MOM WAS COOKING...
BISI BELA BATH...
BEFORE EATING...NOSE WAS DOING ROUNDS...
'AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA'
LORD SMILES AND SAYS...'THIS IS VASANA...AND THATS UR PROBLEM'....

33. I WILL PROVIDE YOU PROVISIONS...U HAVE TO COOK AND EAT...THE TASTE OF COOKED FOOD
DEPENDS ON HOW WELL U HAVE PREPARED IT.I DONT ALWAYS SERVE COOKED FOOD.....' ONLY
ACHARYA HAS TO CLARIFY'... IS LIKE ASKING COOKED FOOD TO BE SERVED...I CANT DO THAT FOR U......I
CAN GIVE IDEAS TO COOK..ULTIMATELY U HAVE TO COOK AND ALSO EAT WHAT U HAVE COOKED...

34. I WAS INTRODUCED TO A TRANSLATOR....HE WAS BOASTING....I HAVE TRANSLATED THIS GURU'S
SPEECH, THAT SWAMIJI SPEECH....SIMPLY BLOWING HIS TRUMPET....I WAS JUST SILENTLY OBSERVING
HIM.... HE FINALLY SAID I CAN TRANSLATE YOUR SPEECHES IN TELUGU... I SMILED AND SAID....NO NO....
FOR ALL THAT I HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE... I AM ON THE LOOK OUT FOR A TRANSLATOR WHO CAN
TRANSLATE MY SILENCE... CAN U DO IT? HE LOOKED STUNNED...

35. MORNING I RECEIVED A CALL...SHE HAS BROTHERS AND THEY HAVE SUM ANCESTRAL
PROPERTY....THEY WANT TO DEMOLISH IT AND CONSTRUCT FLATS...ALREADY THEY HAVE
DECIDED...THIS GIRL ASKED ME WHAT SHOULD WE DO?...I SAID....SUPPOSE I SAY TO SELL IT R U GOING
TO SELL IT? OR SUPPOSE I ASK YOU IF I GIVE SUGGESTION, R U GOING TO GIVE ME ONE FLAT?.. SHE
WAS STUNNED...IN FACT I HAD POSTED A COUPLE OF DAYS BACK ON FB...IF U HAVE ALREADY DECIDED
ON A MATTER, DONT ASK THE MASTER...REAL STUPID AND DUMB GIRL SHE IS...

36. LORD BRINGS ALONG WITH HIM A WONDERFUL PRODUCT CALLED 'CHANGE'...EVERYTHING CHANGES
IN TO SUM THING ELSE...KEEPS ON CHANGING......WITH EVERY CHANGE HAPPENS THE CHURNING
PROCESS FOR THE SOUL.....IN LIFE VARIOUS CHANGES IN VARIOUS DIMENSIONS IN VARIOUS
DEGREES....AS IT CHURNS OUT CUMS THE 'ELIXIR' OF LIFE CALLED 'AMRUTHA' IN SANSKRIT....THE
NECTAR....LORD IS THE BEST ALCHEMIST....

37. LOVE HAS NO MEANING....LOVE HAS NO PURPOSE....LOVE HAS NO REASONING....TO THE LOGICAL
MIND LOVE MAY LOOK VERY ABSURD....THATS WHY MOST OF THE TIME GREAT LOGICIANS R NOT GREAT
LOVERS.... THEY GO ON SEARCHING FOR A REASON IN LOVE AND THERE LIFE COMES TO AN END
WITHOUT BEING TO REASON OUT....LOVE IS MORE SPIRITUAL... LOVE IS MORE A RELIGIOUS
SUBJECT...LOVE IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF FAITH... FAITH AND REASONING R OPPOSITES...TRUE LOVE IS
BEYOND ANY MEANING AND IT HAS THE TREMENDOUS POTENTIAL TO TRANSFORM THE NEGATIVE
ENERGY IN TO A POSITIVE ONE....LOVE MAKES ONE TO BE AT THE CENTER OF ONE'S
EXISTENCE....PERIPHERY IS NOT THE WORD FOR LOVE...

38. IN MY CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD HE SAID....

WHEN SUM OME THINKS OF ME I AM NEAR..

WHEN HE INVOKES ME I AM WITH HIM..
WHEN HE REFLECTS ME IN SECRET I REPLY IN SECRET...
... WHEN HE ACKNOWLEDGES ME IN AN ASSEMBLY, I ACKNOWLEDGE HIM IN A FAR SUPERIOR
ASSEMBLY....
SO PRAISE THE LORD.....RAISE TO THE LORD...TO SLEEP IN HIM ETERNALLY..

39. IAM VERY HAPPY WITH GOD....THOUGH HE MAY NOT GRANT ALL MY WISHES IMMEDIATELY, HE ALSO
DOESNT PUNISH IMMEDIATELY MY MISTAKES'....

40. YOU MAY NOT BE PERFECT IN MANY THINGS..

BUT
MANY THINGS CANNOT BE PERFECT WITHOUT U...
STAY SPECIAL IN YOUR OWN LITTLE WAYS...
