Who loves you most Or who is your most beloved

I remember one thing that I learnt in one of the AOL workshop.

Wonder when a couple says to each other that I cannot live without you, you are my life etc etc.
For any relation for that matter, I mean it could be a relation between mom and son, dad and daughter any relation where there is love. And in such relation one is ready to die for other. I mean very genuine and pure love.  There is no wonder right. I mean there is not really but lets see the facts.

When one person say X loves to Y very much. Lets assume that X's life is dedicated to Y and X is ready to even die if such situation occurs. But without X where is the love ? His i.e X's presence itself creates all this game. Another thing is that it is X's desire to love Y and ready to spend life with Y. By doing all this thing X is getting fully satisfied and X's desires are getting fulfilled.

If we look this way then for a moment it seems that everybody loves himself or herself most in this world :)

His childhood life, blissful moments of samadhi, enlightenment, few things about dhyanlinga, overall this book is something like everyone who is on the spiritual path  will like.

From Sex to Superconsciousness

After long time I have decided to write something about the books which I have read in last couple of weeks.
OSHO's talk has always inspired me. OSHO's books/talks on topic sex never attracted me until I saw couple of short videos on this topic given by Him. The topic is vibrant and He had to face antagonism that time. But I think whatever He has written and said is same as that of other saints. For example you have to accept yourself as you are. If you are fat or thin, rich or poor, fair or dark you have to accept yourself as you are. If you keep thinking all the time that I want to change myself you might go in depression or frustration. The very first thing is that you accept yourself as you are and then you find the ways to change yourself. If you are meditating and all bad thoughts are coming up in the mind you just accept it rather than resisting it. The more you resist, it will persist/increase. The same concept applies to this topic. OSHO says accept it as it is because it is very basic thing in our life. In fact everybody is born out of it. But all religions have talked negatively about it, they have taught to suppress it, ignore it. Without accepting and understanding it, you won’t transcend it. Our main goal is to transcend it and without accepting it is impossible. Without taking the first step you won’t reach to your destination. The first step is to accept and understand about it.
OSHO says that animals, birds do sex in certain period of the year but humans are ready round the clock. :) You won’t find homosexuality in any other species. Why so much obsession about it. One important reason is that you get a glimpse of samadhi i.e egolessness and timelessness in climax of intercourse. That moment is a big attraction. In that moment you feel egolessness, time freezes, you forget everything, you forget yourself. That moment is a glimse of samadhi. But that moment can achieved by meditation and it can be longer than just a moment, it can be of few min or hours. To transcend anything you have to go through it.
The book is awesome, beautiful.

Beautiful Golden Cage

Big wonder of life. Luxurious life, more money , good job, marriage with beloved ... etc ... etc ... etc I mean if everything is going fine in your life and that too always then I feel it will be life like a parrot in golden cage. Just had a thought on this. I was chatting with one of friend and discussion started with onsite jobs. i.e jobs abroad where you can earn more money. If you look at facebook , twitter all Indians who are settled abroad are connected to India in one or other way. Well topic over here is what if everything is smoothly in your life and still you think that there is something big, good , real charm missing in life then I think you and I are on the same page. But what if everything is not going smoothly in your life. You are always having hard luck then I think it is the time to find that "real" thing in life. Well life is mixed with good time and bad time. huh.. that is what everybody says. Actually it is not good nor it is bad. We put label on it. Well I have started searching that "real" thing , at least I am on the path.

Jai Gurudev.

AMC in Bangalore Ashram ( 2-6 jun10 )

After a long time I was blessed to attend the AMC in Bangalore Ashram. Since the day I entered in AOL, I was very curious to visit Bangalore ashram. I was having this wish in my mind since long to do AMC in Bangalore ashram. It was an amazing experience. Though it was my first visit to ashram I never felt that I am at new place. One more beautiful part was that Hindi Ashtwakra discourses by Guruji are going on and I got the golden opportunity to attend those. You go in bliss when a Master is in front of you. Well really I think it cannot be explained by words. What is the importance of Master’s grace in our life? Well I think it is a thing that needs to be experience and I think one cannot express it in words. What is the need of Guru in life? Guruji answered if you need an answer that means you need someone who have to give you the answer and that anyone who gives the answer automatically becomes a Guru. Advanced course works like purifier. It purifies your mind, thoughts, body and brings back to our original nature. We lose innocence as we grew older and to bring it back to its original state mediation, yoga, sudarshan kriya etc. are must. Reading knowledge and living knowledge are really two different things. Many people read knowledge but to implement it in practical life is what important. I think awareness in every moment is important. Observing yourself (I mean thoughts, sensations and offering to divine) every moment is at most important.
The relation between a Master and devotee is so beautiful. Five days of AMC was absolute joy. Rishi Vidydharji took the course and Guruji also took couple of sessions. Well the most important part was last day when Guruji met everyone. Everyone was so eagerly waiting for Him. When I met Him it was a moment of bliss. For me those were the most beautiful and important moments of my life. There is one beautiful sufi song by Kailash Kher which Rishiji played on i-pod.

Chokh puraavo
Maati rangaavo
Aaj mere piya ghar aavengey

Khabar sunaaun jo
Khushi reh bataaun jo
Aaj mere piya ghar aavengey

Aaj mere piya ghar aavengey

Heri sakhi mangal gaao ree
Dharti ambar sajaao ree
Utregi aaj mere pee ki sawaari
Har koi kaajal laau ree
Mohey kaala teeka lagaao ree
Unki chhab se dikhu main to pyaari
Lachhmi ji vaaro
Nazar utaaro
Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Rangon se rang miley
Naye naye dhang khiley
Khushi aaj dwaar mere daaley hai dera
Peehu peehu papiha ratey
Kuhu kuhu koyal japey
Aangan aagan hai pariyon ne ghera
Anhad naad bajaao sab mil
Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Hey ri Ohooo

Hey ri Hey ri

Anhad naad bajaa ri sab mil

Anhad naad bajaa ri sab mil
Anhad naad bajaa ri sab mil

Shri Ramcharitmanas

Afer a long sudarshan kriya session , Guruji sings a shlok from Shri Ramcharitmanas. I was not knowing that is from Shri Ramcharitmanas abd I was searching it from so long. Finally I got it. The meaning is so beautiful. Here it is with english meaning -

बन्दाउ गुरु पद पदम परगा | सुरुचि सुबास सरस अनुरागा ||
अमिअ मुरिमय चुरन चारु | समन सकल भव रुज परिवारु || १||
सुक्रुति सम्भु तन बिमल बिभुति | मन्जुल मन्गल मोद प्रसुति ||
जन मन मन्जु मुकुर मल हरनि | किए तिलक गुन गन बस करनि ||२||
श्रिगुर पद नख मनि गन जोति | सुमिरत दिव्य द्रुश्टि हिय होति ||
दलन मोह तम सो सप्रकासु | बडे भाग उर आवई जासु ||३||
उघरहि बिमाल बिलोचन हि के | मिटहि दोश दुख भव रजनि के ||
सुझहि राम चरित मनि मानिक | गुपुत प्रगट जह जो जेहि खनिक ||४||


I greet the pollen-like dust of the lotus feet of my preceptor, refulgent, fragrant and flavoured with love. It is a lovely powder of the life-giving herb, which allays the host of all the attendant ills of mundane existence. It adorns the body of a lucky person even as white ashes beautify the person of Lord Shiva, and brings forth sweet blessings and joys. It rubs the dirt off the beautiful mirror in the shape of the devotee’s heart; when applied to the forehead in the form of a Tilaka (a religious mark), it attracts a host of virtues. The splendour of gems in the form of nails on the feet of the blessed Guru unfolds divine vision in the heart by its very thought. The lustre disperses the shades of infatuation, highly blessed is he in whose bosom it shines. With its very appearance the bright eyes of the mind get opened; the attendant evils and sufferings of the night of mundane existence disappear; and gems and rubies in the shape of stories of Lord Rama, both patent and
hidden, wherever and in whatever mine they may be, come to light— (1—4)

Jai Gurudev

Shayari (poetry)

After a long time geing a chance to post something nice over here.

I am always been a fan of shayri, sufi shayri. Especially the sufi shayri is my all time favorite. It brings you closer to divine. Shayari or poetry has to be in such way that it uplifts your soul. Poetry done by our saints like Kabir, Meerabai is so much beautiful.

Here is one beautiful line from one forward email -

Mohabbat ek aihasanso ki woh pawan kahani hai , kabhi Kabeer diwana tha kabhi Meera diwani thi , yaha sab log kahate hai mere ankhho me aansu haijo tu samaje to moti hai aur jo tu nasamje to pani hai.

Great sufi singer pandit nusarat fate ali khan has sung following very beautifully.


saaNsoN kii maalaa pe simruuN maiN pii ka naam
apne mann kii maiN jaanuuN aur pii ke mann kii Ram

With every breath I take, I chant the name of my beloved
I know of my heart, and God knows of the heart of my beloved

yahii merii bandagii hai, yahii merii puujaa

This is my salutation [and] this is my prayer.

ek thaa saajan mandir meN aur ek thaa pritam masjid meN
par maiN prem ke rang meN aisii Duubii ban gayaa ek hii ruup

One lover was in the temple and another in the mosque
but to me, immersed in the joy of love, both seemed same

prem kii maalaa japte japte aap banii maiN Shyam

Chanting on rosary, the name of Shyam [Lord Krishna], I become him.
Note: A Hindu God sung and revered by the patrons of love.

ham aur nahiiN kuchu kaam ke
matvaare pii ke naam ke, har dam

I am worthless except that
I surrender to the name of my beloved, all the time.

priitam kaa kuch dosh nahiiN hai vo to hai nirdosh
apne aap se baateN kar ke ho gayii maiN badnaam

My beloved is not to be blamed, it is no fault of his
I became infamous only because of talking to myself

Missing Navaratri 2009

As usual this year Navratri Celibration has started in Banglore Ashram. As I am not there in Banglore Ashram I am missing a lot.

This is for my beloved Guruji -


मेरे मेह्बूब मेरे दिलबर मेरे रह्बर,
आज के दिन भी तेरि मह्फिल सजि होगि,
जोग दर जोग लोग अये होन्गे,
मुन्तझिर होन्गे तुझे देखने, तुझे सुनने को,
आज के दिन फिर तु बन सवरकर आया होगा,
धीरे धीरे हाथो को जोडे हुए,
अन्धेरो बादलो से जैसे चान्द निकलता हो,
गुल्फसानि भि हुइ होगि अम्रुत वर्शा भि,
तुने हयातो कायनातो के राझ खोले होन्गे,
फिर एक कुफ्र कि दीवार भी गिरि होगि,
वोह दीवार जिस्ने कर दि श्याह पिछलि सदिया भी,
तेरे तराजु मै सच और झूठ तोले होगे,
खुदाइ के नाम पर जिन्होने दुकने सज रखि हो,
उनकि ताबूत मे किले गाडि होगि,
भटकति हुइ रूहो को तसकिन मिलि होगि,
जन्मो के प्यासो को जाम पिलये होगे,
झूम कर उठे होगे रिन्द तेरे मेखाने से,
तुने क्या कहा होगा आज क्य कहा होगा,
यहि दिल सोचता है यहि दिल पुछ्ता है,
मेरे मह्बूब मेरे रहबर मेरे दिलबर,
अफसोस मै नहि हु आज वहा मै नहि हु
मेरे मह्बूब मेरे दिलबर मेरे रहबर
यहि दिल सोचता है यहि दिल पुछ्ता है

Valentine Day

Well this year I really celebrated Valentine's Day. For AOLits celebration is in every moment , there is no doubt in it but still this year it was much pleasant and sepcial for me. Many times I think to love someone is not easy as it seems. Hey hold on to love someone means to love someone unconditionally, truly, without expecting anything in returns. I received a greeting card sent by AOL office and Guruji's message is very beautiful. He said that THIS IS ULTIMATE RELATIONSHIP WHEN YOU CAN RELATE TO YOURSELF A HUNDRED PERCENT THEN ANY FACE YOU LOOK AT,THERE IS LOVE, CHARM AND BEAUTY. So what is important is we have to first find our relationship with our self then we can understand the meaning of true love. Now definitely we need one Master to learn all these things. I am very much happy that I have got the right path and right Master to learn all these things.

Well in the beginning I said that this Valentine was much pleasant and special to me because the reason is I got engaged and this was my first Valentine day.

Types of pleasure, joy, satisfaction

From last couple of days I am watching talks given by Jagadguru Kripaluji maharaj. He is just amazing and superb. The talk series is on Bramh, Jeev and Maya where He is gives references of Bhagavad gita, Upanishads , Vedas, Puranas etc. Whenever He tells any shloka ( verse or chapter ) He also tells the page number and that shloka number. This is just amazing I think. Yesterday He was talking on the pleasure, joy. Here there are two things Mayik anand and atmik anand. Mayik anand means those pleasures and joy which our mind is looking for, which is of material world. Atmik anand means that purest form of joy and which is permanent which is need of our soul. Mann mayik hai. It means mind is under control of maya. I think this is very important point which we must always keep in mind :) Again mind came here hahaha. Mind , mind and mind so let me keep this in mind forever. :)

Mumbai Bomb blasts 26/11

It has been couple of days now for Mumbai Bomb blasts. Many innocent people, police officers, army men died in this. Terrorism has spread across the whole globe. India is suffering more than any other country. Only discussions on bomb blasts, blaming our system, government, politicians will not work. I think common man’s active participation is needed. Everyone should look within and think on this. How I can contribute on this front. I think if every person started thinking like this then definitely the scene will be much better. People don’t vote in elections and they criticize system and government. This is big stupidity. Unity among us is what is more important. We should stop fighting in ourselves on the topic of religion, castes, languages etc. As a common man, I think we should not get influenced by politician’s speech which is just hopeless. I salute to all those army men, police officers and all those who have shown their courage in this


Yesterday while watching TV, I got chance to watch Guruji’s speech which He has given in Mumbai on terrorism. Guruji told that people are very angry on system, politicians but they should channelize their anger in proper way. Meditation, pranayama is what is important to come out of trauma. Art of Living has opened many trauma relief centers in Mumbai.


Jai Gurudev.

Two nice stories

I came across two nice stories while watching TV. It does not mean that watching TV is good thing :)It depends what you are watching. :)

A famous painter wanted to draw a painting of Lord Bal Krishna. To draw this painting/portrait he was in search of little beautiful and cute child. So that by looking at child he can draw the painting. But the problem was he was not getting a little boy as per his expectations. He searches a lot. Finally in one village he found a very nice, beautiful and cute boy. Painter draws a very beautiful painting of little Lord Krishna.
Couple of years passed, painter is now old man. This time he wanted to draw a painting of very dangerous criminal. He wanted to have such criminal in front of him so that he can draw his painting. He searched in many jails but he did not get as per his expectations. Painter wanted to catch all expressions of criminal. While passing through roadside, he saw police was carrying one dangerous criminal and there his search finishes. After drawing painting of criminal, that criminal asks him do u remember me. Painter says no. Criminal tells painter that couple of years back you wanted to draw a painting of Bal Krishna that time also you choose me. Now you wanted to draw a painting of very dangerous criminal now also you choose me. Painter understands that criminal is the same person.

What we can learn from this story is that divinity and evil both qualities are present in all human beings. It depends on us where to focus and concentrate. Whatever we focus on grows in our life.


An enlightened Master goes into one village and people organize the satsang for couple of days.
A thief from the village gets a good chance to make robbery because he knew that almost all villagers will go to satsang. He decides a rich person’s house where he wanted to do robbery. He becomes successful in his mission. He keeps all that wealth in his house. After few minutes a angel appears in front of him. Angels says to him that God has seen you today while you were doing robbery. And you will be getting a very strong punishment of that. Angel says you must surrender to God and accept your theft. Thief scares and decides to surrender and goes into house to return the wealth he has stolen. But he remembers one line of that enlightened master when he was passing through that satsang place. He remembers that master said that Angle does not have shadow of their own. So when thief switched on light he can see the shadow of that Angel. He returns with a big stick and says to that person you are making me fool. That so called Angel agrees and accepts that he himself is thief also. He wanted loot his readymade stolen wealth. The wife of thief was very good and spiritual in nature. She tells her husband that you listen and obeyed one line of that enlightened master and you got so much benefit out of that. If you listen and follow the path given by that master then how beneficial it will be.

Keep Smiling.

Astral Travel aka Out Of Body Experience

In last couple of days while browsing on internet, I came across about some interesting topics. It is not like that I was totally unaware of these topics. But then I thought lets go into deep and understand what exactly those topics are. Those topics are astral travel a.k.a out of body experiences, astral projection, near death experience.

Astral travel or out of body experience ( OBE ) is that experience when your consciousness leaves your physical body and you can observe world without your physical body and its physical senses. It is 'an experience in which a person seems to perceive the world from a location outside his physical body'. What I observed that, it is a part of spiritual practice which is very common in western countries. Generally people get such type of experiences while they are sleeping or dreaming. Some may get while driving, working, playing etc. Off course every single person may not get such experiences. When consciousness leaves body you can see and hear those things which are far from your physical body.

Recently I had chat with a person who is from Netherlands. He was telling me that he was guided by his dreams on his spiritual path. He is getting dreams like he is a Buddhist monk. Also in last two days I went throw one blog where I read about this astral travel. Here is that blog gnosticgirl. You can read more about OBE here

Now what I think is that consciousness leaves your body means of course your physical senses leaves your body. Does it also mean your soul leaves your body during that time? Well I really don’t know as I never had such experience. :) But yes I used have some different types of experiences. I used to wake in the midnights with full sweating. I used to feel like I am dying and I used think what exactly death is. Is OBE same like telepathy. Whatever it is but in western countries people are doing lot of research on this. Many people are using it as spiritual practice and they are regularly practicing it. There are many institutes/organizations, methods available for this. In our India this thing is not new. It will not be a wrong if I say that in India there are many spiritual, enlightened Masters who are having mastery on all such topics. Bharat ki bhumi anginat santo ke sitaro se saji hai. Such enlightened people rule on the visible and invisible world. They rule on this whole creation.

In spirituality there are many paths but one must stick to only one otherwise everything gets messed up. Then situation becomes "Dhobi ka kutta.. " :) But on the path of spirituality you must have a good Master. There is no other way. Same thing Krishna has told to Arjuna.

Keep Smiling.

Thursady Satsnag

Yesterday Sushma Didi was present for the satsang and satsang continued for almost two hours. Whenever she comes, she gives some good knowledge points which are very important for day to day life. Generally whenever Guruji is surrounded by people everybody wants to talk with Him, hug Him , bow down to Him. This is but obvious. What happenes that time is, many thinks that Guruji didnot see me , He did not talked with me, I could not discussed my problem with Guruji, etc. etc. Sushma Didi told that we should not think like that. If Guruji is talking with someone then we should think that as if He is talking with me only. If He is watching anybody then think as if He is watching you only. I know agreeing to these statements practically is bit difficult. The reason is our mind. It is our ego that comes in between. Why Guruji did not see towards me, why He did not talked with me. This "me" is a big enemy on the path of spirituality. Who am I? I am nothing in this world. I think we should live with this feeling all the time.

In first week of last month I got the chance to attend the navaratri advance course in Pune ashram. I met with my school friend there. In the last week there was blessing course organized in the presence of Swami Pragyapadji. My friend asked me are you interested to attend. Mine was not fixed because I knew that I will not get leave. But later I asked my senior and I did not get the leave. I could not attend the blessing course. There is one more guy called Prashant told me that he also wanted to attend the blessing course. In fact he went in half way and he got a phone call. Because of some work he had to return. He also could not do the course. My friend told me that Swami Pragyapadji was saying the same thing. Many people wanted to do the course, but why you people only reached to the course venue. It is not in our hand. So I think whenever my turn will come I will get chance to do the course. But yes it depends on my intensity and Gurukrupa.

keep smiling,

Jai Gurudev.

Love without attachments

Love without attachment, does it seems contradictory. If I say I love my girlfriend (even though now I don’t have any :) ), it obviously means I am attached to her. It is so obvious. Same case happens with other things too. Loving wife, children, parents, job etc makes you attached to all those beings and things. Generally we think that attachment is a second side of love and it is natural. Up to certain extent I am very much agreeing to this that attachment which comes with love is natural with your loved ones, favorite things, situations.

Love is a feeling and attachment is an emotion. Now you will ask me huh what the difference between two is, it’s again the same thing. Well there is a difference. Love is feeling within and emotion brings strong feeling, possessiveness, and obsession. I know you must be thinking I am mentally disturbed or I am mad. But love without attachment is true love, pure love, that’s what I think. If we observe carefully everyone is in search of true, permanent, long lasting love. At least I am :) Attachment brings mental fatigue, mind disturbs.

I think true and pure love is free from attachments, lust, obsession etc. Love between Gopis and Krishna is the best example of this one.
It took me a lot of time to agree that love and attachment are two different things. But still to follow it in practical life is not that much easy for me. I think it is a continuous process throughout the life.

New York experiences

I was working with Merrill Lynch in 2007 for couple of months. For almost two and half months I was in New York, the biggest finance hub of USA. I think we can call it as Finance hub of this world as if stock market of US goes down it affects on almost each and every country’s stock market. New York City has its own glamour. Big talents born here, some came from other parts of the world. The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island are the five major areas of this city.

Even though it was first time to go abroad excitement was not much, a bit curiosity was there. It was new place, new colleague, and new boss for me. My roomies were Indian and they helped me a lot. I never found any difficulty during my stay. What I seen there almost all Indians cook food at home, well that is quite natural and wise ones will prefer that :) I found Americans are co-operative , disciplined, they will give you smile even if they don’t know you. I think Americans are either fat or they will be in proper body shape. I think Americans needs lot of research on their food habits. :) My black American boss always used to take me to taste different types of food items. This is the different case that I liked very few of those :) I was really amazed when I came to know that my boss was not addicted to smoking, drinking etc. , even though he was a proper American. I was having almost all bad habits that time. When he saw me smoking, he asked me, what makes you feel to smoke, what encourages you for smoking. I was answerless that time. Whenever I have done any bad habit, I always used to interact with myself that something is going wrong. It’s like monitoring your own self.

Traveling with subway trains, path trains and bus was good experience. Network of trains underground was new for me that time. Why USA is so much rich and advanced today, is a question we must think on. One day my boss invited me for dinner. Even though I used to eat non-veg that time, I told him I will prefer veg food, as I was scared. :) When I reached to his house I came to know that he is very much interested in music and he can play trumpet very well. His wife was very much interested in cooking. A strict professionalism and discipline at work place are two good qualities which I saw there. My boss was very much frank in nature and we used to discuss on many topics like Indians taking jobs of Americans, dowry system in India, spirituality in India etc. During weekends my colleague and I used to go for sightseeing. We had been to statue of liberty, Wall Street, empire state building, Washington DC, Niagara Falls. It was beautiful experience.

You go anywhere in this world people are same with same emotions, feelings, desires. I don’t like to compare, stupid people keeps comparing, keeps criticizing about what they don’t like. Each country and each city in it has its own beauty. I remember someone asked Guruji that why India is so much rich in spirituality and Guruji answered that America is also beautiful city and people over here are also good but what I see is that Americans has lost somewhere in celebration. (Here celebration means materialistic celebration)

Wildlife Photograph of the year 2008

One of my colleague forwarded me this : -


Deadlock





David Maitland's "deadlock" is this year's winner of the competition’s Behaviour: Other Animals category.
David said the photo was just a snapshot in the struggle between a tree-frog and cat-eyed tree-snake that lasted for hours through the night in the tropical forests of Belize.

Biggest Wonder

Pandavas were walking through the jungle and were thirsty. They stop walking while Bhima says I will bring some water for all of us. While in search of water he reaches to a lake which was under control of Yaksha. When Bhima tries to take water, Yaksha says either you give me the exact answer of my question or leave from this place. You can take water only if you give right answer , if you give wrong answer you will die. So Bhima was having two option only either leave or ready for the question. Yaksha asked the biggest wonder in this world. Bhima couldn’t give answer he dies. One by one 4 pandavas dies. At last Dharmaraj comes to lake and gives the right answer. His answer – Daily people watch other people dying, living beings dying then also everybody expects that their life should be stable. They behave with their ego as if they are going to live here forever. This is the biggest wonder of this world.

A beautiful line I found in one book – While you are living don’t think of death. And while you are dying don’t think of living.

Keep Smiling,

Jai Gurudev
