Insanely Intoxicated...

I am INSANELY INTOXICATED...Never have I been so happy and what more, happy for no reason at all. Normally human happiness is mortgaged to external situations, but the last one year has increasingly taken me towards inner happiness...and now, I have started to experience exalted heights. How you may ask? It is all because of Isha.

Just 2 days back I completed Samyama: the supposedly toughest course under the eyes of the greatest soul I have ever seen, Dearest SADHGURU.

Man, for the dosage he gives, the pain encountered during the preparations was nothing but a mean trifle. I don't have words to put my state as language is handicapped when it comes to experience.

I'm mad with joy...
So are my fellas who attended the course...and definitely, I have to thank a few people in the absence of whose help this samyama would have been made very daunting and difficult: The Madhas* comprising of Raghu, Arun and Bhoobi; The Kondas* comprising of Arvind Sharma, JP, Vimal, Shyam and Naresh...

Thanks u dear ones...

If you feel life has something more to it apart from Eating-Sleeping-Copulating-Dying, the moment has come...TRY ISHA NOW (http://www.ishafoundation.org)

*Madhas: The guys put up in Madhapur
*Kondas: The guys put up in Kondapur

And the answer is...

Lord Rama...As we all know Rama has a VIL (bow) in his hand and it is a well known fact that "Where there is a will (vil) there is a way...

:D

p.s: Some of u might be searching to hit me, but pal, it's all in the game...By the way, Naresh got it correct and hence is accorded with the JUNK MASTER award.

Hmmm...At last...

Really long time I came this side...Reasons being Samyama preparations, Office work and the latest find "Orkut"...This Orkut thingy is a "fertile flirting field" ;-)

Wanted to post something...A puzzle, for a change...

Post ur answers along with the LOGIC/Reason for ur choice in the comments and I'll get back with the answer in the next post.

Neo was switching between the Matrix world and the real world...In one such transit, he keyed in one of the digits of the telephone number because of which he was transported to the transient zone, a fine layer between the Matrix world and the real world. All he could see was white everywhere and in the distance were 5 doors. Each door had a different picture. The pictures were that of mythological figures. They were, from left to right, that of : Rama, Atlas, Buddha, Virgin Mary and Hercules. Only one door has the way to his destination and all the other doors will destroy him immediately. Neo has to choose the correct door. Which is the correct door that will save Neo's life?

This day that age...

I had scribbled some crap around the same time last year here http://ramsrules.blogspot.com/2005/02/love-is-in-air.html

But this last one year has been a great revelation in terms of the popular notion of the term "love" (The popular notion is the one you find it in every cinema or the other). And surprisingly, I've seen almost every cinematic story in real life in the last one year...from

• an early forced marriage
• to sabotaging attempts to stop a marriage
• to eloping
• to breaking a long relationship
• to falling in love after having hated the very thoughts of sharing the life with someone else
• to falling in love the conventional way
• to ...............

Hmmm...Let me see what's in store this year...

Love all...

Totally random rambling...

From where...to where...and why?
What I beheld is no longer me. What I behold shall cease to be me.
But still I strive to define with those ephemeral definitions.

The cliche is all that remains: Nothing but change is constant.

Finding neverland??? A distant spark...is that the beacon of Truth?

Is it all an illusion? What do I want from anywhere?
Are dreams the present...Does awakening come only at sleep?

An animal this moment...Human the next? Will the transcending happen?

The "silent" time shall answer.

Anecdotes from my Mahabaleshwar trip

[The four people squatting in the right corner are the ones involved in these anecdotes: [from right corner in the order of occurrence of faces]: Bhoobi, Vimal, JP and me.

I was suffering from food poisioning and had a serious bout of vomiting on the 2nd day morning. I was talking with JP. Sharma was also suffering from food poisoning.

Me: Dei JP, Sharma edho powerful maathrai vechrukaanaamae...Naan adha eduthakalaamnu irukken.
JP: Avanukku dysentry da...
Me: Oh that's serious...Naanaachum nadu roadla vaandhi edutha vaaya roadlaye kazhuvikkalaam.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The talks were still around my state of health.

Me: Dei, enna panninaa vayithla irukadhellathayum full-aa vomit pannidalaam?
Vimal: Soap solution kudicha ellam velila vandhudum.

Me: Loosaada nee...Adhu constipationukku dhaandaa...
Vimal: Illada, vomit ku dhaan use pannuvanga

Bhoobi: Vimal, adhu constipationku dhaanda
Vimal: Illada, naan soap solution kuduthu parthirukken
Bhoobi: Appo andha patient thalai-keezha paduthirundhruppaar!

p.s: One other guy was doing pranayam during this conversation and it goes without saying he had a hard time controlling his breath as well as laughter !
