Things to remember: When things start going out of your hands..



A lot of things happen in our everyday life, and there are so many things to learn from them..

The times when things start to go out of your control, there are millions of changes start happening internally...
There are few things that I often experienced in such conditions..
-useless words spoken out of unmanageable anger
-decisions made out of anxiety often turn out to be the worst decisions ever
-loneliness: when one may feel isolated from all the people in the world
-depression
-frustration: to divert all the anger to someone weaker

In all these conditions I ended up hurting my near ones, my family...
I screwed up my time and health...
Also, broke some expensive Grocery many times  :P

These are the things I “tried” to get out of the situation
-Went out for shopping and eating
-Watched all sorts of stupid comedy movies
-Avoiding phone calls and not to be in contact with anyone

Nothing whatsoever came out of it and made me more miserable..
all these things give temporary happiness...also called Rajsik Joy...

The things that worked...
-SK&P followed by Meditation and Guruji’s knowledge sheets...
-Doing something creative like writing, singing, painting, cooking...
-Having faith and believing in the Self...

Believe me...All these things work miraculously in any critical conditions...

In Mahabharata, when Arjuna was depressed and lost; Krishna motivated him...
Everyone has somebody in their life that is playing Krishna’s role...we just need to look out for it...

The reason I wrote this is because, it happens with everyone when they feel "everything they're doing is right" and become over-confident about their approach...
All the logical decisions you make, take you nowhere...
You can pretend to be strong or fake or to be somebody you're not in public, but you cannot lie to yourself...

I request all my friends...please be more inward and observe what’s going wrong around you...drop your ego...all you need is love...
Follow your heart and not your brain...
Don’t get influenced...get inspired...

Thanks for your time that you spent reading this thing... J
(*SK & P stands for Pranayam and Sudarshan Kriya)

This was my sincere gesture to make you aware as a friend, so that you should not face the problems I faced or the mistakes I made...

Movies, Cinema and People...

I have been searching for some activities or some new things to do in this Summer.

Then I decided to watch some movies in the free time. Obviously an Indian mind is very much into movies and stuff...
I saw many movies like Never Back Down, The Ron Clark Story, Yeh Saali Zindagi, The Whole Nine Yards and Eat Pray Love in last week.

Suddenly I remembered...
4 years back when I was in Pune for my AIEEE exams, I saw shooting of this movie called A Mighty Heart- starring Angelina Jolie.

Since then I was waiting to see that movie and finally got to see it 2 days back.
The movie is based on true events in the life of American Journalist Daniel Pearl...and the consequences faced by his wife after he got kidnapped in Pakistan...


The movie was amazing...a true Eye-Opener...

I wonder how Hollywood Movie-makers dare to choose such a subject to make a movie on.
This is something which we all should learn from them.
International audience are very matured and open hearted to welcome any kind of movie on any possible subject, that’s why they can experiment in their movies.

In earlier days, Indian movies showed a lot of Indian culture and our rural conditions...Which helped our movies to get some recognition all around the world.
But nowadays almost all Indian movies have lost their touch and most of them are copied from English Movies.
Indian film makers are very talented and they can make brilliant cinema that the whole world will appreciate, but they are afraid to experiment because Majority Indian Audience wants to see only Entertainment, Glamour & So called “Stars” in the movie.
We have to take some steps in order to obtain some Quality in our movies and in our cinema going culture.
One should make movies in order to show people what is necessary for the society and one should go to the theatres and expect a nice movie which is made to make difference rather than some silly Hero dancing in weird clothes with 60 dancers in the background.

Many people think that meaningful cinema can’t be entertaining.
Well, we have hundreds of such movies which are entertaining yet meaningful and meant for a purpose like Rang De Basanti, Paa, Taare Zameen Par, A Wednesday and many more...

Yes, you are right...all these thoughts were raised in my mind just by watching a Movie.
Just imagine what a movie can do in one’s life...and leaves a big impact...
On the leaving note...I think, entertaining movies must be there but they shouldn’t be over-dosed to the people and all the leading film makers and the audience should also grow up and look around at the real world.

Cheers

Advait..

Aamchi Mumbai

Mumbai!!!
My most favourite city in the whole world...


I was so excited when I came to know that Guruji is going to be there for 3 days...Youth concert, 3 satsangs ,Maha Kriya , Devi Pooja & Knowledge session was the schedule...

I had booked my ticket for 12th January...Akshay was also coming with me, he booked his ticket 1 day before leaving...Alok was the surprise entry to the journey having no idea about his ticket whatsoever...but luckily he got the ticket confirmed 20 minutes before the train was slated to leave.

1st Grace Experience: each and every seat on our bogey was occupied except 3 extra seats beside our reservation. Hence, Alok and Akki’s seats were easily adjusted there.
We were literally lying on the seats eating brown bread sandwich and cutlets with bread and 0.33gms extra butter. Alok then fell asleep till kalyan station, then he suddenly woke up and said ‘heyy Rajshree how are you?’ realising that Rajshree was on train since 2 hrs...

I was so excited to be in Mumbai...wanted to cherish my childhood memories attached with the city.

Got down at Thane...My first local train travel on this trip was Thane to Dombivli (was staying @ Mama’s place)

12th Jan evening: Youth concert was there @ Andheri Sports complex...so went there...Changed a couple of local trains...
As soon as I entered the venue, I started getting sacred vibes...
The concert was awesome...Started with couple of songs by Rahul Saxena, some bhajans by Vikram Hazra, one Marathi Povada along with superb Ganesh vandana and Breathless song by the one and only Shankar Mahadevan...
We all were bowled out when Shankar started singing the Breathless song live on the stage...

The Magic went on to high when Guruji entered the arena...everyone started flowing on the waves of bhakti as Guruji started addressing the youth...His presence really does make a huge difference to this world...
He said, “I have travelled all over d world and never found anyone a stranger. To me it’s an old love, an old relationship. Everyone belongs to me...”

After the concert, I met Jaydeep after almost 7 months and as Foram Aunty told, I pulled and twisted his ear for not picking up anyone’s call...lolz...n finally I got my “Sri Sri” locket from him in the presence of the master himself...tears of gratitude froze in the pipeline itself...
