Concert Coimbatore


My inspiration has always been guruji of course but one person also stands out. My YES! teacher sahil jagtiani. He has always guided me on how to be on the path and how to balance life almost. He has tolerated my foolishness. He has launched his new album avataran 3. Its come out awesome. Recently i went to coimbatore and didn't sing this time though but i learnt a lot about sound engineering. i was managing the effects, echo etc. Mixing sounds to get the optimum end result is a tedious task. Also noticed the perfection in him. The concert was just ...... amazing(understatement). Even its like a month since the concert i am still humming the tunes. There is a part of me which is in pursuit of happiness and another part which is totally blissfully. Also have learnt some new bhajans which i will try out in the satsang soon. I am also planing to take my guitaring skills to next level. Last year was great but .... next year you better watch out bcos i am comming sooon to party.

Sri Sri Yoga TTC

Being a Yogi::


For the past ten days i thought i was going to lean how to teach yoga, But what i learnt and experienced was something else. My TTC teacher was kishanji who is a yogashiromani. If i have met enlightened people one is guruji and the next one is him :). He is like a child over 70 years of age. Guiding our body mind and spirit. Body ... intense yoga for 4 hours each day. Mind..... amazing knowledge from the Ashtangyoga, PYS etc. Spirit.... i have never meditated for 2 hours in a stretch. Yoga develops ones 6th sence. Any one can teach how to do yoga these days internet is full of yogic books etc but to be a yogi is something special being united with the spirit always.
Part 2 coming up.

YES!+ CHENNAI

Let me just jog you past few glorious days of my life. I had actually organized a YES!+ in Chennai For my dear Shreya Didi. I keep telling didi that i had organized this course only for you and she keeps saying that she had come to chennai only for me :). We partied and ate in the most expensive restautrants every day ..... Now i am blogging form the YES! office in bangalore. Today was ganapaty homa. Ganapaty is the god who removes and CREATES obstacles. Trust me folks this pooja is very important for sadhaks. There was a point in the pooja where i fell helpless and not responsible for any actions and sincerely prayed (just prayed ..... didnt ask or tell just prayed). Beauty is at its best here in bangalore ashram. The pooja finished with Sahil Bhaiyas Ganesh OM.

Sayam Sandhya


I am learning my sandhyavandanam from my room mate. I always wanted to learn sandhya, but didnt know how to perform it with right pronunciation. Mahadevan is a expert. I am so greatful to guruji for making this happen. I feel like a bhramin.

Bhakti


I need to collect my thoughts on this one. Its the only thing that seems real in this world or sometimes every thing else seems so real. If you have not felt it, you will not be able to understand a word of what i am going to say. It not merely love but something beyond that. It is a feeling where each and every cell of your body ...... is in that state, that moment.
I have noticed a pattern in my life which has given me strength or faith on my path.

1)I have been so helpless whenever i have taken or challenged things larger than life, when at that point when no knowledge seems to work.
2)This feeling of helplessness ferments and ferments.
3)Ferments more.
4)Amazingly all odds turn to your favour and you are victorious.

This feeling, that every thing will be alright at the end gives me immense faith on my guru and on my path. These days fear in non existent in my lexicon.This is because i have failed may times. But still i am every ready to take panga(take on things larger than life) with the divine because it is only then i get to feel him completely. I have prayed from him, for an opportunity to do seva (larger than life style).He is the one doing seva and he is the one looking after me 'in time of trouble'. He has taught me how to play the guitar and he is the one who has bestowed me with grace. If you get a chance please listen to Bhakti sutras by guruji. I have crossed oceans of misery with these sutras. Well lets not delay and lets spread the fire of bhakti around the world.

My Holidays Part 1.

(A view of papanasam temple from gurujis house)
My Semester holidays had begun. That is the only time when i do something meaningful in my life. I caught a train for tirchy as soon as my exams finished where i assisted a Yes! course with Shreya Di. Around 150 people celebrated,danced and meditated. To know more about her you can read my earlier posts. She was my first teacher and i was one of her first students. Now She is the youngest TTC teacher and takes Part1,SSY,AE&YES!,YES!+,KYC,KYT,UTSAH,UTSAV workshops to name a few. We were staying in a apex body members house. In a span of 4 day Didi had taken almost 5 workshops for students teachers and the parents combined. The amount of creativity that comes up during her courses is amazing. "I am 100% available for anything "it was a felling which i was floating. We went to Papanasam -Gurujis house and it is said that if you go around the ganesh temple outside all your paap of your previous and future life gets removed. At the end of the course a Poor Muslim boy came and gave me a keychain he said that he has never felt like this before and started crying with tears of gratitude. This magical journey ended and i had to go back to the ashram to begin another one where guruji was there and Sahil bhaiya had some plans for me.
