One meditation you can start every night before you go to sleep.... Just sit in your bed – sit in a relaxed way – and close your eyes. Feel the body relaxing.... If the body starts leaning forwards, allow it; it may lean forward. It may like to take a womb posture – just as when a child is in the mother’s womb. If you feel like that, just move into the womb posture: become a small child in the mot...her’s womb. Then just listen to your breathing, nothing else. Just listen to it – the breathing going in, the breathing going out; the breathing going in, the breathing going out. I’ m not saying to say it – just feel it going in; when it is going out, feel it going out. Just feel it, and in that feeling you will feel tremendous silence and clarity arising. This is just for ten to twenty minutes – minimum ten, maximum twenty – then go to sleep, mm? And tell me after fifteen days. Just let things happen as if you are not the doer. For fifteen days become completely dead. That will be a very necessary thing for the fruit to ripen and to fall on its own accord.

Holi It’s the time to unwind, de-stress and to make a bond with sweets, thandai and colours. May God gift you all the colours of life, colours of joy, colours of happiness, colours of friendship, colours of love and all other colours you want to paint your life in.

Once a person asked Baba Bulleh Shah how he could be happy even though he was living in so much poverty... his reply:

Chadhde sooraj dhalde dekhe
Bujhde deeve balde dekhe
Heere da koi mul na jaane
Khote sikke chalde dekhe
Jina da na jag te koee,
O vee putar palde dekhe.
Usdee rehamat de naal bande
Paani utte chalde dekhe!
Loki kainde daal nai galdee,
Main te pathar galde dekhe.
Jinha ne kadar na keetee rab dee,
Hath khaalee o malde dekhe …
Kai pairaan to nange phirade,
Sir te labhade chhaavaan,
Mainu daata sab kuchh ditta,
Kyon na shukar manaavaan!

BUDDHA NOW

"Awakening is knowing that you are awake. But it does not end here, the highest awareness is when you transcend even being aware that you are aware, you become awareness. Such is the way of the mystic. He has harmonised with his twin, which is all the accumulated experience he was. He has become a Buddha now”, said the Yogi.

“Buddha now?” asked the snake.

“Suppose there is a mountain, a flag on top of which reads ‘I have reached the summit’, and you can read this flag from the bottom. But when you actually climb the mountain, reach the summit, you read a last word, ‘now’, I have reached the summit now. The ancients have already made you read the flag; you are Buddhas, you are Consciousness, you are children of God, you constitute Shivas. But you still need to climb, unveil, become that Oneness which is promised, do you understand? so, it is that when you start, it is always because you feel God is not, but by the time you reach, God is.”

*RE-ROUTING*

Have you noticed how Google Maps never yells, condemns or castigates you if you take the wrong turn?. It never raises its voice and says, “You were supposed to go LEFT at the last crossing, you idiot!, Now you’re going to have to go the LONG way around and it’s going to take you SO much more time, and you’re going to be late for your meeting!. Learn to pay attention and listen to my instructions, OK???.”
IF it did that, chances are, a lot of us might stop using it. But Google simply Re-Routes and shows you the next best way to get there. *Its primary interest is in getting you to reach your goal, not in making you feel bad for having made a mistake.*

There’s a great lesson …

It’s tempting to unload our frustration and anger on those who have made a mistake, especially those we are close to & familiar with. But the wisest choice is to help in fixing the problem, not to blame.

Have you had *Re-Routing* moments recently? ...

With others, and also with your own self?.
