World Wide Ashtavakra Gita

We started something amazing today and I am dam excited about it.
Ashtavakra on Skype!!!

Nikhil Katuhria's residence in Ashok Vihar has become a haven for North Delhi YES!+ volunteers. In fact it has become the unofficial center for YES!+ activities in North Delhi. His family is also thoroughly enjoying the extra satva .... intimate midnight satsangs, early morning Guru pujas (8 am is early morning for me ;-) ), rudrapujas, extended padmasadhanas, frequent meditations in guruji's voice and guru stories of course. Ram, Kapil and myself have been staying here for more than a month now...and its not just the satvik and tasty delicacies cooked by aunty but also the warmth of the people in the house that has made us feel so much at home here.

As an honour and felicitation of Rohit Ranjan's TTC 2 call, we started Ashtavakra Gita sessions today morning. Other volunteers heard it from their homes by connecting with us on Skype. We have 2 from US...Tushar and Shabari, who even after 1 year of being in US are still struggling to organise a YES!+ intro talk, forget about organising a course :-).

We might allow a few more volunteers to join from tomorrow. You can get in touch with Rohit Ranjan (rohitranjan21@gmail.com, +919999681752) asap...latest by tonight, if you wish to be a part of World Wide Ashtavakra Gita and thereby enlighten the Janaka in you!

Session with Bawa-n-Dinesh in Delhi on 21Jan'09

I am sure it must have happened sometime in your life, you are walking on the street, just passing a cake shop, and you slow down wondering whether you should give in to the temptation and indulge, you have almost decided not to, and a gentle breeze parcels a whiff of sweet aromatic air right into your nose! You almost taste the black forest with cherries or a wlanut almond or a pineapple watermelon with roasted cashew toppings....yuummmmm....Now you are left with no choice. In the next couple of minutes you are walking out of the shop licking the melting chocolate off your fingers :-) Bawa and Dinesh visited Delhi for a couple of days and all of the above happened, metaphorically and actually too! And their session on the 21st evening was like that - a gentle whiff packed with a lot of goodies. Knowledge Bawa said Guruji explained dispassion beautifully. He said, a desire to have any pleasurable experience springs up when you see or hear something about it. This desire or craving is c

Shyam mila de...Radhe Radhe :)

We have a very famous bhajan in The Art of Living. "Nikunj me biraaje Ghanshyam Radhe Radhe", a song from the KRISHNA album. The lyrics of this song give such wonderful knowledge. The song says, "Nikunj me biraaje Ghanshyam Radhe Radhe,  Ghanshyam Radhe Radhe tu Shyam se mila de,  Radhe Radhe, Shyam mila de,  Shyam mila de, Radhe Radhe" Meaning: The 'Best' way to get to the man is through his girlfriend/wife. So, if you want to meet Krishna go through Radha or become Radha. So who is this Radha? What is this Radha? Where is this Radha? Can I get her phone no. or atleast her email id? Can I add her as a friend on facebook?  :-) Ok. Ok. Relax! Don't Panic. Whatever is happening to you right now is 'DHARA'.   The mind is pulled by the five senses. The eyes want to see. The ears want to hear. The nose wants to smell. The tongue wants to taste. The skin wants to touch. This mind flowing outwards is DHARA. And RADHA is the reverse, the mind flowing inw
