How to train a terrorist




I simply loved the movie: How to Train a Dragon. Watched it a second time and loved it even more. Hats off to the animation, graphics, sets and sound.

Well apart from the entertainment value it carries, it has a tremendous training to offer. The whole movie is about training. Its an education for all trainers/teacgers/parents.

There is a dragon in each one of us. And there are dragons around us in human form, the naxalites/terrorists/criminals ( politicians ;-) ), our rivals/competitors in office/business, may be neighbours, for that matter, even people in our family. Our own mind or ego can be our worst enemy or our best friend.

The movie how to tarin a dragon, gives a deep insight into how we we could handle these other dragons.





 Step 1: Confront with Courage






Step 2: Approach with Love





Step 3: Excercise patience and understanding






Step 4: Deal with Skill





When the above is done, instead of friends turning into rivals, rivals turn into friends and instead of love fermenting into jealousy, jealousy transforms into love. (you will know what i am saying when you watch the role of the babe in the pic below)






Having befriended the enemy, you can then win bigger battles together!




Cheers :-)

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...

Kishore Kumar gives YES!+ Intro Talk in IIT Delhi

We were campaigning for YES!+ in IIT Delhi. Around 5 pm we took a break, sat to have maggi and biscuits at a Nescafe joint. And grace manifested as a spontaneous musical message. Of course its a very old famous Bollywood number (originally sung by Kishore Kumar), but the adaptation turned out just perfect! Watch it here: JHUMROO TALKS Cheers Saleel
