You do my Job I will do your Job

-
After a long train journey i reached my hometown and i was in the bus to cover the last ten kilometers to my village... I happened to hear the conversation of the man and his child sitting next to me.. "Dad - we could have bought new clothes for mom also.. She will be sad" the boy said.  Dad was telling the boy that it is ok don't bother i will convince her.  The boy kept repeating the same thing and father kept convincing him.  It took me few seconds to figure out that he had bought new clothes only for the child and for no one else in the family because he did not had money.  In  Kerala they say You should celebrate your land and celebrate Onam(a festival in Kerala).. This strong feeling came in me that I should help.. But how.. that too just 15 min journey together.. I introduced myself and asked them little about themselves.. In Kerala it is a insult to give money to someone without they asking.. I kept thinking and the bus stopped in the bus stop and they got down.. A forceful feeling came in me and i was feeling very heavy..  I picked a couple of currency notes (few hundreds) from my pocket and ran out of the bus and put it n the boy's pocket and ran back to my seat.  While i was watching them walking through the back window there was a broad smile in both their faces.  I felt expanded, joyful and some current passed from my bottom to the top.  This thought passed my mind... Be Available... The Divine works through 1000 hands..

With a broad smile i entered my house.. As usual my mother welcomed me with a bigger Smile.. I went to the kitchen and was eager to tell what happened in the bus.. I started and my mother asked I know how much did you give... Before even i could say anything she asked what did you bring for me for the festival..  I remembered i had not even bought sweets for her.. I was answer less when she took me to the room and showed me few sarees my friends and well wishers had already given her... My eyes were fully filled and throats had choked.. I remembered.. You do my Job I will do your Job.. The words of Guruji...

                                           Be Available...Divine works through 1000 hands..
I pray every day.. every moment.. Please bless me to do service the way my heart wants...Seeking all your blessings.. Jaigurudev..

A budding devotee...

A Prayer to find my Sister Who I never Knew

-
My Sister left this planet when she was just 27 days in this planet... I may be 2 or 3 years old... Oh My Sister...  This is a letter written long ago in my heart but found its expression today.... It is a special day today .... I wondered always !!!! Why did You leave so early ?? Why did you come to this Planet all the way if it was to leave us so early ?? I know Life is a mystery...  As a child I overheard from a conversation from our family members that  according to my horoscope a girl child cannot be born after me .... Is that why You left ??  Somewhere am i responsible ?? Long time i had this fear... But i am sure i could not have done anything wrong in this life time...  If you were there with us may be I would have been a different person.. May be our family environment had been different.. I don't know...  But yes one thing for sure i have missed all the love you could have given me..  Luckily i studied in a co-education school

I wanted my Devotion to HIM like Meera... I wanted to be in Love with HIM like Radha.... I wanted to be Mad in HIS Presence like Sri Ramakrishna.... I wanted to create of Knowledge and Awareness like Swami Vivekananda... But when I met HIM.... I was afraid to even Speak to HIM... Fear with God ???...  The whole point i came to HIM was to move from Fear to Love... Feeling of Helplessness... But every time when i met HIM... He has made me wait... till I come back to the true self that is LOVE>>> so that i can express the ONE I am.... I became Myself... with all my shortcomings and qualities... HE wants me as I am..  He had and have many Meeras... He has and have many Radhas... But HE wants me as I am... What do I want???... I also wanted ME as I am...Always...

In search of the Ego that lost in the Chennai Floods…

In search of the Ego that lost in the Chennai Floods… I don’t know if I had to pay back to the city I grew up this way… I don’t know if i was lucky to be there this time… I don’t know if I was destined to be here…. In my Child hood once when there was continuous rains I remember praying… Rain Rain go away… My bro and me even made a song for the same… May be that is why I had to be there to welcome this… I never ever felt that this was too much … Somewhere in me there was this acceptance of the outpour..  Because …. It happened more than 6 months ago I came to know that a disaster (tsunami kind of disaster) is going to struck Chennai this day… I knew the Master knew this… But waited to see how HE handles this… But ran out of patience and the fear that knowing this I am not doing anything about this.. Went to HIM and asked what to do ??? First HE did not answer… But later HE said it will be not be major.. Don’t Worry… Went back with Confidence… B
