தேடி சோறு நிதம் தின்று – பல

சின்னஞ்சிறு கதைகள் பேசி – மனம்

வாடி துன்பம் மிக உழன்று –பிறர்

வாட பலசெயல்கள் செய்து –நரை

கூடி கிழபருவமெய்தி –கொடுங்

கூற்றுக் கிரையென்ன பின்மாயும் – பல

வேடிக்கை மனிதரைப் போல் -நான்

வீழ்வெ னென்று நினைத்தாயோ….

Heep

Long time since blogged have a lot to share.

First item to share is volunteering experience for the three days mega class conducted by Sadhguru. Pre and post program volunteering made shearing changes from with in.

Pre Volunteering helped to have very lime relation with many new people around. Must here tell Shanthi akka and Elango anna where I knocked every day their house with some registration forms or some other data. They are very close friends of Jr too and she is very eager to play around with them.

Meeting people briefing them on the class and its benefits made me think how we are gifted to have the class done. I thank my hubby who forced me to attend the class probably 3 years before and deeply rooted. The words from Sadhguru was real booster “Blessing and guidance will be always within and this is a doorway to salvation.” I was able to feel his energy presence in any presentation given for the class if it is a possibility of meeting an individual from various walks of life from a tailor, lawyer, doctor or professional. I was easily present thoughts to them to their way of understanding.

Day before the program following the meeting, volunteering Hall co-ordination team in the arena started by sweeping the floors, wiping the chairs and laying the chairs were all done working inside the bay.
Day 1: No office and No food, only eager for the kick of the program. With most cheerful and happy face welcomed the participants. Mind was bubbling with tons and tons of happiness to see participants to attend the class. The bay was filled with ladies from age group of 18-90 years.

Day 2: Day started with Guru Pooja in the venue. With Alai Alai song lingering their ears from the previous day class break, people started to the class by 6 in the morning itself. First day for ‘Namskaram’ it was a gentle smile, today they greeted back and where eager to learn more abt the class and Isha. During the class session I was able to observe how keen where people to take things. Sadhguru as always was just making people to follow him word by word to his discourse with usual wit, stories and anecdotes. I was able to feel Devi to be there with Samskriti kids chanting songs of ‘Ye Devi’. End of the day with blessed flowers from Sadhguru for the participants and volunteers danced and tapped with everyone to the rhythmic and aloud drums of our Sounds of Isha.

Day 3: Initiation day and we should people to really never forget this day in their life was in thought of every volunteer. Day started with Sounds of Isha performing to dance to their tunes. In the first session itself the volunteers and participants were dancing to adoring performance of Sounds of Isha. Missing the games session on the initiation day, dance session really opened up minds of people around. All set after the Silence break and the initiation too happened. We were in only during the lunch break, I was able see tears and happiness bloom on the faces. Group of grannies in the bay to danced to the tune joyfully.
Volunteers were also reinitiated to Shambhavi in the evening session from the master. With tears of happiness flowing and dancing thru the inner mind expirenced the wave of bliss to the root. Shooking and tears flowing was able to wave hands and hug the participants when they finally leave.

I was able to see only Guru and his energy source filled in the airy atmosphere. It was the perpetual experience to have the blessing from the master. I feel totally dissolved and lost the identity there and jumping and dancing their. Penning down still tears flow it is more pertinence to say it’s my SAMYAMA.

Following the class people I enrolled called back thanking for giving this wonderful opportunity made happier.
Message from the class to greet people ‘Namskaram’ when picking the phone. Greet people around happily every hour and still this spirit moving at my work place.

Firefly

To be one year after Silence program was speaking to a volunteer about the program and inner expirence. The firefly poem by Sadhguru was on the screen during the program break time. We were discussing the extract of the poem. Was able search thru books to get with exact words from Master.

Firefly

In the moonless night
the firefly emboldens itself to light

the brooding darkness mocks
the spirited flight of fly delight

The limitless darkness could
swallow the miniscule attempt of light

The skeptics cantankerous laughter
swept the inner space within me to ask
Can a firefly light the world ?

Yes, firefly am I

If life's summers have warmed you,
your inner spaces have charmed you,
I could set you afire and the worl too
                                        - Sadhguru

Invitation Distribution for Satsang

The volunteering initiative geared up last Monday after attending the Satsang the before day. With lot of hesitation and fight from Hubby we attended the meeting together. Hubby generally had a opinion meetings are waste of time and nothing is achieved at last. Isha meetings and satsangs are always exceptions were only strong thought in me forced us to the meeting. Started from my mother's place to Perambur meeting place with heavy rain pouring we landed the place late.

There was a video session which completed in 15 minutes we reached. Then people shared their experience.
 Later while Thillai anna was talking he said giving invitation is a very rare event where we are given an opportunity to introduce our guru to someone unaware. With a group discussion with each centers concluded by 9:15. In the corner of my mind a little fear was knocking is Hubby to scold... Yup ! No, he said thanks we attended the meeting and it opened up a lot for me.

I started,  Monday with an initiative to distribute invitation in my work place. Previously I collected donation from people, but giving invitation and pasting the poster at Cafeteria gave a lot of happiness. The mind was flying in joy.

Tuesday I joined the initiative to give the invitation to the Residents in the locality with team of other core volunteers. There was a lot different way of reaction from people.

The whole way the invitation was presented is plate with White cloth on top with flowers placed and invitation with Sadhguru facing the people at the receiving end. Day after day I learnt to bow more and learnt more of kindness or humbleness (put appropriately Tamil: Panivu) inside me.
It was like just the day after I completed my Silence looking at people. Floating with Silence in me Friday night flied to Kolkata for trip and back today.

After our October visit, it’s for the Pancha Bhuta Aradhana again this time to ashram. With excitement was there in ashram on Saturday morning. Doing the volunteering at the temple reception with Jr through out Saturday. Jr and myself tried our volunteering in temple reception, baggages counter like every time. This time very spl was the ‘Linga Snanam’ in the night where we three involved our self in the sweeping, mop the floors inside. We also had a chance to clean the ‘avudayar’ of the Lingam. With shambo chanting and the whole process with swami’s guidance went for nearly 2 hours. This was on Saturday.

Sunday morning I attended the guru pooja in the Sadhana Hall and after that I continued my practice of Surya Namaskar and Hata Yoga. Some volunteering in temple reception and Theerthakund in the afternoon we visited campus of Home School. The new ‘Gnana Shala’ campus with Computer, Chemistry, Physics or Botany laboratory and library were really world class. Back of the mind myself and hubby thought we didn’t have any such provision, hopefully Jr have this option.

Returning back in Cheran Express to Chennai welcomed back with a heavy rain.

Sick to commute

With CMRL work in progress in the 100 feet road, before monsoon patience to wait in the traffic saying it will clear or keep moving can reach work in 15 minutes from the main junction. I follow 3 routes and ride through small roads to reach office.
  •  Route -1 is the regular route from Ashok pillar to Guindy, avoided it after the prathkshnam one way near Udhayam. 
  • Route – 2 shortcut by Jafferkhanpet meets 100ft road at Kasi theatre junction, became road block after the ‘U’ turn removed from Virtusa. 
  • Route -3 longest one where by Nandampakkam to Office. 
After the rain flooded Chennai city the so called State Highway – 55 itself smile with bumps then and there. Imagine the 100 ft road status a very huge pit near new Hilton Hotel, half the road with CMRL blocks. Pedestrians and two wheelers really cry out.

With elections upcoming these roads will have patches plastered or full bleached needs to be seen. Longterm wait to watch CMRL really ease traffic in Cheanni city ?
