Making a difference
I truly have great people in my life and around me. I am surrounded by a whole lot of good people in some way or the other.
Recently, I went for a 2 day shibir at lonavala organised by nira multiversity (http://niramultiversity.org/) and again met a really good fellow sadhaks.
It was a small group but each of them was determined to change his own life and make a better today and thus tomorrow. It was "age no bar", in fact old ones appreciated the teachings of the modern day unlike our general experience that it's difficult to change mind set of the old people.
This has bought a different perspective to me and that is "make a difference" by changing yourself and also guiding right people to right place at right time.
These shibirs are amazing ground for "experiencing" new things in life with a very light weight approach.
Remember, we are surrounded by a world of information and logic where we start loving complexity and challenges. And thus these things follow us.
I have seen so many young people always saying that they love "challenges in life". Probably I used to as well, but now with better sense of things, I now love "simplicity in life". I have simplified myself and my life a great deal. Simple life, simple food, simple prayers.
I am in love with the words "simple", "easy", "peaceful", "grace", "great", "heal" and "pray".
From Here on, life will be simple, beautiful and bountiful. I recommend doing the shibirs time and again to many people. But I have noticed that the ones who are really ready for the change are able to make it, rest will only read the blog and move on. Please realize that reading anything is not going to make your life any better then it was yesterday if you do not learn and apply it in your life.
Reading positive and good things certainly help momentarily, shibirs help you transform and follow ups keeps you going on the right track.
Wrapping up this post with a lot of gratitude for having such good life, unsaid, untold grace on me always!
