Happy Birthday to the Divine

The Divine is never born
And the Divine never dies
And yet in mortal form on earth
Sometimes, we see the Divine rise.

The Divine comes to us as one of us
And treats us as an equal thus
But his actions prove it for sure
That He is the soul which is divinely pure

And the aura attracts like a magnet
We get gravitated by the pull
He teaches us the art of living
Makes us a wise man from the fool

And then in this land of mortals
The Divine celebrates his birthday
We are never born and we never die
Through His knowledge, He gives the way

And we bask in His holy grace
Offering ourselves to His lotus feet
Happy Birthday dearest Guruji
In you, it is the Divine I meet :)

Jai Gurudev :)

Bangalore Ashram 13 April 2009

“Open your mind and listen: the Guru speaks only knowledge. The Guru doesn’t even need to speak – there is knowledge in his presence. If you simply sit in his presence, there will be knowledge.

In this atmosphere, Knowledge dawns.

Through surrender, Knowledge dawns.

Empty your mind here and keep a pleasant state of mind. Simply being here is being in knowledge. Every cell in the body absorbs the knowledge from the vibrations in this atmosphere. These vibrations are knowledge itself. This atmosphere is so satvic (pure). Knowledge blossoms in a satvic atmosphere.”

Trip to Shivarathri

A group of 40 people started from ashram on 21st night. We reached Teni by 7 AM and we found a hotel for refresh.. after that we started around 9 aM and headed towards tekadi (kerala).. we did our sadhana in the park and then we went for boating (around 2PM) inside the thick jungles.. We saw dears and elephants on the banks of the river.. Then we started our trip towards kollam.. We reached the hotel around 11:50PM.. Then we had only 3-4 hours to sleep.. because the next day we have to go to the venue to attend live kriya by Gurudev.. So as planned we reached the venue by 5:30 AM and we were waiting for our poojya gurudev. After few min Our gurudev made his presence and we were flowing with joy.. Then he started the kriya.. it was awesome.. :) .. Then he said we will all meet in the evening.. (he said this in malayalam).. After that we went to the nearby beach(warkala) and we had nice time in the beach... I learnt little bit of swimming after drinking one glass of sea water(pathetic ... :( ).. then we went to our room..took bath and started toward s the venue.. though we reached half an hour earlier we could hardly find place to sit.. I rushed towards the stage to meet my dear Veda boys.. I had some nice chat with them..Then i asked about one of the teacher to a volunteer.. she said she do not know.. then i said we are coming from ashram . she asked do u sit in the front.. i said yes..
then she gave me a celebrity pass with which 4 people can be accomodated.,..we were 4 exactly and we were very happy.. we could see guruji very close... Then the program started.. Guruji was in full bliss.. we got the chance to see shiv tatva flowing in the form of our Gurudev.. He performed rudra pooja after which the satsang started.. Guruji took shiv bhav during the satsang.. Then he started dancing..he went forth and back in the ramp for nearly thrice ..the ramp for nearly a km length and he was in total bliss.. Then we started to bangalore around 11 PM and reached 5 PM the next day.. Jai gurudev..

In Ganga Kutir

Yesterday (12/1/09) we were in Satsang waiting for Guruji.. The clock striked 9 PM but there was no sign that he is coming.. then suddenly i moved out and was standing near kashyap circle.. After few minutes i saw some of the ashramates were running towards ganga kutir.. i also joined them and was standing near the chain. some set of people went first.. i was standing at the second batch.. Then i was alowed inside.. then we were sitting in Ganga for sometime.. After few seconds Banu amma came and she was kidding that you all are invited to do seva for women conference... then after some time to our surprise guruji came from the room and he was in full masti mood. he was constantly cracking jokes and making fun which made us to continuously laugh without any gap.. Then he asked you all are thinking "Why guruji called us?".. then suddenly Urmila didi told that she brought cake from German ashram (Christmas cake).. Then guruji told everyone this is why i called.. Then he cut the cake by himself and started giving one by one to everyone.. He said you should get the cake and walk out.. this is called cake walk.. very funny .. my turn came as usual he asked what are you doing ?? i said working in sumeru .. as usual hmmm sound.. then he gave the cake to me and i started cake walk... ha ha .. very precious moments.. Jai Guru dev!!
