Creator, Creation & Procreate



Growing up with story of ‘The beginning’ in Bhagawata, I was familiar with the birth of Lord Brahma. There was this deluge (fluid all around), out comes the stem from the naval of Narayana responsible to manage life on earth. The seed of life grows into giant illuminating lotus and there appears Lord Brahma.
Hmmm, who can relate to the imagery of long cord and at the end of it new life taking shape and form than female species?
Female womb is sacred. Its no coincidence that Temple core is called Garbh same as the womb of a lady. Womb is the ultimate source of shakti. If whole creation, the universe can be created from the womb of the nature, it can offer the same boons to us ladies who carry the womb power integrated in us. Not just for procreation but to achieve anything in life. First 4 vedas were born from first creation,  Brahma ji uttered the first verses without being taught – the spiritual powers, he created beautiful natural world around us to enjoy, he created remedies to restore us. Our womb power allows us all those powers - fertility, food, fun and all abundance in life we desire.
I am blessed with a child who understands me as if my Goddess. She arranged for my two weeks in island made of rose quartz. And it was a realignment of my self-image as a lady. We forget as we flow in river of life supporting our family that we are shakti and not attendant. We have miraculous yoni that brings out perfect new life on earth even if we can not supervise the life in making. and we have beautiful pair of breasts. They are divine to inject the life into newly formed human body. Recently, my daughter was invited by an insurance company to promote breast cancer awareness videos on her page. Is it not truly tragic that insurance companies have to remind us that we need to practice some self love and well being of our intimate parts? we disown part of our own body just because there is no one else to express love to us?! Is it not perfectly healthy that we start to acknowledge gratitude for having these assets that makes us complete for our role play in life.
‘Mum, just observe the synchronicity’, Kamya said. Yes, I drifted in all that I needed. From Alchemy of Sacred Geometry, Shamanic Lab, Yoniverse, Sexual Healing, Yoni love, feminine embodiment, nourishing feminine, Menstrual cycle dance, blind blixx, Ecstatic dance, Zentra, Temple of sacred sensual sisterhood, Breast love, Purifying with Jade egg, Alchemy of touch, Alchemy of Sound and more. None of the above had anything to do with sex. We ladies are ignoring the potential to reset our biological clock through our yonis, yonis go through the pain of miscarriages, abusive relationships, endometriosis, neglected potential of pleasure, jeopardizing yoni health not knowing sexual habits of partners, childbirth, pregnancy, still birth, Caesarean delivery, PMT, IVF, HRT, abortions, menopause and lot more from emotionally unfulfilling relationship. We have found no means to heal the deep disturbances and wounds.  Then there is whole area of maintaining polarity and flow of energy in female body.
Sisters, Never punish yourself for karmas of omission and commission of others. Love your womanhood irrespective of all of it. Love your whole self. We are complete and perfect.
Happy international women’s day in advance.

Lesson from Laoshi


So I went back to the island to spend few days to be in warmth of my child and do some activities. What would I fancy?! I wondered. Its no fun doing yog postures half hearted. I cant stand discourses now a days.

Aah, Qi gong. Yes, let me learn this. It was just right sort of activity. I am good at visualizing and i believe in energy remedy.  Master class from world renowned Laoshi of Chi practices sounds like real treat.

Laoshi silently comes and practices his own energy rituals. The entire class is so silent. Infact i find more stillness of mind in western seekers than myself. So Laoshi conducts the entire class. Offers golden nuggets for chi harnessing.

1. Total Stillness of mind and enagage in dynamic body movement.
2. No tension in any part of body. One by focus and relax.
3. Opening of joints. Without opening of joints hi can not flow through body. So when we joint rotation stretches always razorsharp focus.
4. There is no need to visualize, just tune in to . Becoming so still and silent allows hightened senses.

Laoshi is smiling, small bulit and young. He now invites everyone around him to sit closer in circle for demo. Witnessing about half a dozen demo was magical.

He asked  big built muscular gentleman to push him against the wall. Responding muscular force with muscle will never work. But watch how the chi works.. he places palms on his elbow to sense and direct his chi, makes inner shift in his chi and by simply nudge easily pushes the guy away.

He places his hand on the floor and asks 2 participants to places their 4 hands to grab his. They are actually holding his chi and by shifting chi, there will not be anything to hold on to. He shifts his chi to other hand high in the air and slowly, slides his hand out.

Now my own experiment.. hold bottom of one leg of the chair. Ground your chi well and lift the entire chair high. No i failed. The key is grounding. You must harness chi from up above and also let it hook you as deep as possible in mother earth for unshakable grounding. Aaah, i seee. I need some serious grounding  rituals then.

Only i hear waves of oceans and swishing air. Such power can be enjoyed with feather light body, smile, wordless exchanges.

Word of caution: all those who offer qi gong lessons are not connecting qell with chi no matter how graceful and arty body movements seem to be doing. Find genuine master like all other practices.

With gratitude to Samma Karuna, have body and life full of chi.
Namastey Laoshi🙏🙏🙏

Floating Aum


Its Sun Sand and Sea and Spiritual seekers all around me. In fact, I wonder if I am qualified to be part of this island community?!

Some have jataajut hair but not sadhu, they are in lungi but not fakir, they are in 2 pieces but not beach babes.

Met some lovely souls from Chile, Peru to newzealand and sweden to sudan. It is a place for people of the whole world. And what brings them all in small piece of land is Aum. They are all seekers. Seek answers for life and living. Karma and dhayana, sadhna and sangeet, believe in veganism and vegetarianism. All want to hold compass in cobwebs, find anchor and practice stillness of mind and heal the hurts.

Its all but India. The chants are playing and its not by Indian musicians or devotees. Every other place run activities to feel your own core. Be it anaand tandava, kirtan, range of  practices from the brand Osho, Isha, AOL and more.

We Indians get confused when it comes to Osho. But there is thriving economy in name of brand Osho and its by non Indians.

Spiritual progress needs connection. Having phone and pressing buttons is of no use without service provider. No matter howmany practices we start and stop and change and experiment, it will not liberate us from agonies anxiety and anger.

And its not just this place. Any retreat on greek or spanish island, mountain in scotland, bahamas, forest of bavaria, temple in wales we find pure human confluence celebrating Aum.  Isn't it time Mother India takes these global brahmin kids in her fold?!  Isnt it time to host kumbh of different kind where whole eco system reaching sanatan dharma is facilitated. Music makers to yoga trainers, tantra to technology,  designing (jewllery, cloths, interior, accessories, mandala) to diet all come together!  Aum Shanti. May peace prevail in and around us all.

Come Combodia:



So I arrive at Suvarna-bhumi airport. It is warm feeling when we dont know the language but know the vocab, branding and meanings. They say Siam - derived from sanskrit word Shyam or Syam. For its slightly darker coloured tribes! I found thai people quite fairer. Shall we say thats why they changed the name to thailand not because of foreign invasions!?

Back to Suvarna -bhumi (golden land or land of gold). Such a beautiful name! India is was known as golden bird but it does not feature anywhere. Why all our airports are named after individual names of recent politicians rather than poetic names from ancient Bharat Varsh  that uplift psyche?

Anyhow, I continue my flight to Siem Reap to feel all the temple ruins of ancient India. People are gentler for sure. They end the sentence as if singing lullaby! We Indians are little too competitive and loud at times i feel. The King Jayavarman is everywhere revered and found only in meditative pose - so calm. Reminds me of Raj Rishi Janak. The entire population devoted their entire resources for temple building. And large proportion of tourist visiting are non hindus. And here we are intellectual Indians evaluating whether we deserve one and only Rama temple in his birth place Ayodhya!. Well, thailand has its own Ayuthya and they have gilded Rama and Ramayana with gold on walls everywhere. They have roads and building in name of Rama. Why do Indians need to justify their authentic heritage, I wonder!

Mother India can be custodian of Indic people. Buddhist removed shiva and vaishnavite symbolism from temples to only some extent. It is impossible to erase stories of epics mahabharat engraved i  stones. Linage of same dynasty try to revive shiva temples but only in patchwork. communist Pot pol wanted communism and killed lakhs of its own people.   (who backed him china or Russia? If yes then why cambodia has chinese chamber of commerce and stores promorting chinese products and sign posts in chinese? How would I understand complexity of world politics I am only stay at home mum?! ) Civil war as a result of brutal communist regime made cambodians to steal their own art and destroy exquisite artworks but lot still stands and is mesmerising. The buddhist young monks are respected and offered bhiksha by everyone they visit with proper naman silently. Some amazing monestries to be felt. As compare to bhikshuk saints in modern India where they are shooed away most of the times. When my PM says its Buddhism to play role in world peace I understand.

In cambodia, the convenient currency is US dollar due to their economy going down counting and currency exchange is difficult. I have nothing against USA but would it not be easier for entire Asia to have single currency like euro dollar? If we consider individuals hands doing financial transactions and trade must be way higher in Asia than in Europe and America combined. Asian dollar will rule the waves!

Unite enire Indian subcontinent, lets prosper together and take pride in commonality. Let the lion of Durga roar to drangons.

Aum Shivay Namah 🙏
Aum Namo Bhagavate Vasudevay🙏
Aum Mani padmey Namah 🙏

Drive-thru Himalaya





It is Indeed Himalayan task to attempt to write about Himalaya.

I am still making note of very little glimpse I had of this amazing landscape for my own sake.

After visiting places in Hrishikesh we join the masses for evening Aarti of Gangaa ji in Haridwar. We Indian love to waste water on one hand. we never settle for tissue for any cleaning and poor water pipes and leakages but we know that Water is life. Our body and our earth is 75% water and we respect that. People simply sit on steps and watch river flow. All the bells are ringing and massive Diya arrangement reflect in water as pujari pray river. we also get our bowl made from leaf with lots of flowers and lamp. with help of people already standing in waters we let it float to ocean. Gangaa ji, I am letting all my clutter go with flowers. Purify me and Grant refreshing start in clutter-free life.



From 9 in the morning that I started from Hrishikesh till 5 in the evening reaching Guarikund, I was trying to chase river Ganga in opposite direction non-stop and still its origin not in site. Eventually I spend night in Gaurikund.

First, verse that comes to my heart is 'Aum (eternity), Bhu (this land), Swah (up above/Higher self/divine) and Bhuva (everything in between this and that). No where on earth you find everything rolled in one frame. River that flows on ground, cloud that float in sky/heaven and everything in between that invokes your spiritual side. Hyper ness of any kind simply melts. Every breath brings cocktail of herb infused aroma in your system, everywhere I look there is water and more water pouring out from all directions.

Gauri (name of Parvati and Kund meaning water tank ). As the legend associated with this place goes....

Once Lord Shiva (Parvati's husband) goes away from home for his wordly duty of ridding this world of clutter and returns after long time. In his absence Parvathi gives birth to Lord Ganesh and in absence of her husband she indulges in long spa rituals in hot springs having so much time at her hand. One day Shiva returns to find toddler playing in his courtyard and refuses entry in their living quarters as his mother is busy bathing. Furious Shiva not recognizing his own son chops of his head. Upon realizing his mistakes when horrified Parvati explains he sticks elephant head to his son's body. This is the only place and his birth place where Lord Ganesh has image with his original face.

So we plunge in this same age old hot pool for early morning bath before remembering all my relatives during puja. and on board the horse. 4 hours ride each way we reach Kedarnath temple. Along the way we hardly exchange single sound, we are soaking in breathtaking view all around us. This temple has Shivling with integrated Parvati and Ganesh in. Temple has been build by Pandav and around main temple there are 7 Murti of Pandav plus their mother Kunti and her nephew Lord Krishna and ofcourse Parvathi and Nandi (shiva;s vehicle). Pujari asks me to take in the beauty of Goddess and whisper in Nandi's ear anything I want. Looking at Goddess something spontaneous happened, tears started to flow. (I would name it Bhaav-(emotion rich) Gangaa). I was not prepared for this boon so I did not have anything particular to ask. And I also feel if there is really Mother Goddess looking after me than I am sure she knows what would be best for me. Outside temple there are hill walks to see 2 different reservoir and one source known as Madhu (nector/ honey) Gangaa or Dudh (milk) gangaa flows in to Mandakini river. Mandakini river from merging 5 main streams each with relevant names. Flows toward what becomes Gangaa when meets other sources. Pujari brings Brahm-kamal a flower that grows out of rocks on high altitude. and we are back on backs of our horses. Guest house in Gaurikund is basic with a window with a view. Through out the night the rumbling sound of river flowing over my head. Whatever the reason the eyes open long before dusk in Himalaya. We say bye to Kedarnath, an ancient place where 3000 years BC worshipping has been passed on through Dwaper yug. As story goes about creation of life on earth. They had to bring rivers on earth but such massive water body as Gangaa ji would have destroyed life if flooded so Shiv ji held her and from Panch Kedar ( 5 diff. places of shiv ji) she was released little by little so humanity thrives. Story further describes how Sat-yug Rishi saw images of Shiva's head, shoulders, torso before allowing Gangaa ji to flow in moderation.

Now we are on way to Badrinath. From the time of Skunda -puarana, recommended route from Kedar Nath to Badri nath is through Ookhi muth and Tung nath. This beauty of the forest can not be described in words. Roads are without any roadside support and often they get blocks due to rock falls and fallen trees for days. My driver decides to drive through this only. Clouds and rivers are holding hands and touching each other. Variety of vegetation. patches of forest, mountain farming etc. and dripping leaves on roadside rocks and cliffs.... paradise for sure.

We reach Badri nath before dusk following Alaknanda to its mouth (another major source in Gangaa) Alaknanada is made from main nine major streams. We did evening Aarti and next morning went to Manna village the last on Indian-Tibet border. There are 2 cave/temples to visit. Vedvyas and Ganesh. Higher cave is where After recieveing orders from Brahma ji that his creation on earth would need some manual to handle life and its problems and complication, Ved Vyas wrote 4 volumes of veda and MahaBharat and finally ending with Bhagavat. He decteted everything to Ganesh. During dectetion vivacious river saraswati making too much noise generates anger in him while he is doing such mammoth task of authoring scriptures!! so he cuses her to go under ground for miles. Today where Alak nanda meets Sararwati and then its disappears and appears all the way near Allahbad. We take a guide to walk up to Vasundhara fall more than 5 km walk. There nothing that compares with being in lap of mountain. I feel the mist bubbles bursting on my cheeks. They say if you are sinner the water from the fall will not sprinkle on you. Thankfully I wash my face there.

The guide shows where 15 days track will allow me to walk on the same path where pandavaa's dropped their bodies and went to heaven. when found grieving uncle dhritarastra left hastinapur in himalaya with vidur, Yudhisthir being righteous man leaves kingdom in hands of Parikshit and walks up in Himalaya. one by one they all die each has interesting question and situation attached to it and finally being so truthful Yudhisthir walks in heaven with his own body.

Next morning we decide to be part of First morning prayer at 4 am. The statue of Lord Krshna here is Swayambhu (something that is found and not carved by anyone). It is in the form of yogi purush, his full form. Priest describes absolutely everything. and they remove previous days coat of sandalwood and saffron covering the black stone statue. one by one they adorn the idol with garlands of tulsi and flowers and silk fabric. In between there is chanting from accompanying devotees temple trust. They ask us all to mention our Gotra. Original Rishi's lineage from where we come. Being part of such age old tradition was amazing especially when I myself dont do any ritual at home. Here also we sprinkle water from adjacent hot-pool. In fact its so so hot I had to stir the water before sprinkling few drops.

On way we wiz pass Govind ghaat a gateway to Valley of Flower but last minute I felt jittery about managing in 2 days so Himalaya, I am coming back with my Shiva.

Through out five days Gangaa ji was continuously flowing on side of my path. so much of water I have never seen before. Where ever I looked in the mountain the drizzling water coming out from rocks, woods. Taste of water at some places is mettalic. so much mineral rich water coming out from rocks. No wonder India is where Ayurveda established itself. Medicinal vegetation all over spontaneously growing. One I want to mention is curry leaves - tree. Its everywhere coming out from rocks. Makes me re-think about value of curry leaves. Naturopath say Add Tulsi, Mint- curry leaves and roasted whole chana with skin when you want to go on diet but would want to add nutrient to strenthen the body. They say paste from curry leaves gives mettaic glow to your hair. This plant feeds itself on mineral rich rocks and such water terrain no wonder its so good for us.

All the way from Haridwar, I see saffron colored Kawadia (person who hangs 2 pots on both shoulders and walk to pilgrimage ) to Delhi on plains and Neel kunth 9one of the peaks in Himalaya) some without footwear when blisters hurt touch of uncomforting bad designed foot wear. some roads were made only pedestrian zones. Each Kawad has diff. designs and all the way there were parking for their kawad when they rest at night.

On way also I see non-stop saffron color sikh bikers going to hemkund and govind ghaat.

On way We stop at Dilli. Kids take me for Chaat Hopping, trying various sweets including Paan pethaa. we take ride in bicycle rickshaw and enjoy light and sound show at Puarana-killa. the language of narration was hard to digest. very sweet though. made from 6 diff. dialects including avadhi, bhojapuri, urdu etc etc.

Himalaya, I just got to see you, I am coming back for more...

though positive about my fortune and freedom and previledges, as I started horse ride in Kedarnath my heart fills with regret I feel gutted not thinking about this trip earlier for my mother when she was stronger. I felt so good for making these foreign trips for parent when I lived abraod. It was mainly for my own needs. I would say to my NRI friends instead of making them do long haul journeys sponsor their trips to this divine place before they lose health to handle even comforting car journeys with fragile bones and weak lungs. That is if you cant take them yourself.

Om Bhur Bhuva Swah....

I found beautiful ground beneath me, I could touch the clouds, I could see everything between the two and feel Aum in my heart. This is special place resonating divinty.

Get high on Consciousness




Receiving times:

Sometimes we go through phase when we are on 'giving' spree. We give gifts, give good time in parties, contribute skills, give affection, inspiration and all that is good and glorious. And sometimes you are down, out and hurt and you are only receiving and receiving from everyone you come across. People who are not used to receiving get too uptight as if someone is approaching with massive injection of morphine and how soon they can get it out of their system by reciprocal gift! That is also denial that you too can be helpless, needy, vulnerable and spread pallu to higher sources to look at you.

As my reiki master told me, see others as just another wave in the ocean carrying the same energy you have in you only different shape and size and that too constantly changing. Just receive with an open heart and mind accepting that others, just like you, are also channels of universal life source energy and are able to transfer some to you.

In the recent years, I have been on the receiving side of others goodwill, guidance, selfless care, gifts and grace when I felt helpless and clueless. I have been blessed to have found people from all walks of life, lawyer, educationalist, yoga masters, companion on journey of spiritual experiments, teachers, neighbors, family, friends, doctor colleagues, random aquintences, encounters with mobile beauticians and many more such generous souls who had no interest other than helping us to become centered within us.

The priceless gift of my Indian adventure is to have found a Holistic Healing Temple.

We all have five bodies, and there are impressions upon impressions in our minds based on past experiences and future anticipations. To add to these, there are layers upon layers of emotions stored for as long as our memory stretches and beyond. Also we are made of five elements just like any other living being and our five elements need to be in sync with outer elements of nature. Going even further, like summer brings monsoon followed by winter, our bodies have seasonal re-programming or tuning need to suit outside climate, mental and physical.

When the physical body is not in good shape, medicine isn't the answer. Infact, there are so many other things we can do before even considering external resources.

Taking the example of a simple headache, without addressing the root cause of the problem, taking paracetamol will only mask the problem. So how do we get rid of the tendency to get headaches altogether? The main thing is to deal with all those built up emotions. It could be due to imbalance in the cocktail of your moisture, ether, fire element in your body. It can be countered by balancing out the energy flow in your body.

There is a need to declutter the heart and mind, bringing the elements in the body in harmony and freeing the blocks of energy.

A soothing and comforting touch can heal the tired and overworked body. A hunger for social recognition, drive for achievements, greed for money and much more takes up a lot of energy. Take a break, do some soulful activity, pamper your body in a fulfilling simple way at home instead of running to spa!

Removing layers:

So how does this temple help me get rid of my accumulated layers?!

The first layers come off when I am sitting in the open air waiting area, I don't feel like I am in a queue. Breath in openness!! In fact for some this is mini retreat from busy schedule that they want to sit a bit more in gueue and let others go before them! Some toddlers come for a walk and chat every evening and get little bit of touch therapy show their coloring books and go. The few plants that are used for treatment are visually comforting and makes you feel closer to nature.

Awaiting people are from all walks of life, educated, high flying CEO, to conservative middle aged people to young IT professionals, everyone communicates in different language and instantly they find interpreter if need be. So second layer comes off when CEO starts sharing his back troubles with burkha clad lady!! You learn to come out of your comfort zone and mingle with people you would never look at if bumped in the market.

Third layer comes off when you put your religious identity on one side and become one struggling body just like another visitor! I see other practitioner come and give quick demo of how to breath with rhythmic AUM without inhibition to non-hindus. Everyone knows, its a hub where one and all are comforted and cured.

Yet another layer comes off when you sit on that stool. Wonder how we feel sitting in revolving office chair? would it affect your attitude? when you drop your baggages out and sit empty handed on seat without back and foot rest face to face with healer, the focus shifts to your communication and eyes and ill part.

And this is followed by consultation that is in presence of few other strange human beings!! It is the first step in healing when actually you drop your guard to cover your vulnerability and be honest about what you are struggling with. The healer offers only minimum words to reassure worrying and winging mind. Magic touch (sparsh chikitasa) to pull out impurity, clutter from your body in form of unhealthy or abnormal energy or electro-magnetic field and having few pressure points to carry the treatment home in various forms. Consultation will last no more than 10 minutes. sometimes I am more fortunate when I hear in his serene and affectionate voice stories from scriptures that is indirect answers to my puzzling mind even without asking. Sometimes the consultation turns into forum when other visitors who are taking all words delivered for you in their system and starts to share their views, experiences and thoughts that would be relevant to you. Highlight of consultation is reassurance, hope, positivity with simplified explanation of infirmness rather than investigation.

Cases:

I saw so many things that people can do to improve their health by minor changes in lifestyle, house hold suppliments, correcting your energy fields in blink of an eye getting better or cured completely.

Most common ones I observed were back problems amongst many bike riders and IT/Outsourcing service sector. Many had their 'Naabhi' (belly button) misplaced. Apparantly its garvity point for many energy fields and for various reasons it gets displaced from its physical umbilical point. Some trapped nerves can be restored effectively.

Some complicated and failed allopathic cases I saw where person has lost an eye sight after an eye surgery or laser treatment and their cornia came back to life after regular treatments. In fact one eye surgeon regulaly sends some failed or complicated cases where allopathy has its limits to him. One lady nearly amputed a foot and slowly but surely retained her healthy foot!

Many cases of muscular disorder.

Many cases of skin disorders.

Severe cases of depression made better by simple re-programming the mind and person comes off sleeping pills and anti depressants!! Talking about sleeping pills, he can program the mindset so person with insomnia fall asleep at certain time and gets up at certain time!!

Girls, get them all... bullying bosses, discriminating institutes, angry neighbors and get their brain re-wired, or may be just you go and get immunity from everything that you find unpleasant!!

How does it work?

Like skies when go through movements in active monsoon time, shows lightening before we hear the rumbling sound, all happenings show their signs to people who have been able to reach their higher consciousness.

He possesses tremendous power and connection to higher consciousness. He can see person's aura and impure elements around and can nullify them. He can enter in subconscious mind and re-wire tangled or ruffled circuits! Once again this special person is also just like us. One does not have to have beard, saffron cloths to"feel spiritual and direct people in their confusing times. He could be 'guy next door' in jeans and T.

I now understand what 'Guru' means. What awesome feeling it is to have 'Guru Bhaav'. He enlightens your mind, blossoms your heart and shows you path in detached manner. He showers you with affection and cares for you in holistic manner. He wont just say eat well, he serves food lovingly and sees that you cultivate good routine to beat the blue. He makes most monstrous problem seem tiny and insignificant. He does not teach or preach but generates curiosity and quenches thirst for knowledge and understanding. Guru is someone who makes beauty and bounty come looking for you.

OK. Now I need a hat fitted with a fan so that my Aura keeps on getting disturbed and he does not figure out I have ego, jealousy radiating out of my system!! I am scared how to hide my real emotions from him!! Its only after more than a year I found through others, he can levitate, like a true 'Sidhha-Purush'. May be I could ask him only to design this 'aura-hiding' gadget as he is former engineer from Indian air force and left all that ( post kargil ), to follow his passion and public demand.

Even after six months of observation day after day and roughly 2 years of personal experience I feel totally baffled to witness the reactions of people who get better at this centre!

wow, amazing land of Bharat! Amazing revered science from Rishis.

My own Lineage!!

Its only now I recollect my own great-great Grand mother (nanima's nanima), known as Maaji-ba lived in Bhuj and has shrine to mark respect to her sidhhis. She could levitate, foresee and heal. I dedicate my this passage to her. I will have to start Indiana jones odysssey to find if I inherited any of her gene?!! But that has to wait, let me travel through more of Bharat before I start long journey to find for similar gene in me and settle down to awaken my third eye!

Strange coming this from doctor's wife, huh? Its only after observing the ways of Intellectually sharp, verbally smart, political aware and vaastav-vaadi people surrounding me that there is something beyond the scope of science, logic. Super souls are ones who are connected with their own true Self, and rare and supreme ones with ability to make difference in other's life for better.


Mantras:

Every 'body' knows exactly how to heal itself.
The body is not a part of problem, its part of solution.
There is no disease that has no potential to be cured.
Illness is mere message from universe that redirect, restore and recollect your life.
First and most powerful medicine is your own mind and thought. Believe with overflowing faith that you can help yourself.
There is no other cure like nature.

------------------Sir Ki Jai Ho---------------------------------

and healing continues....................

Money-mantra



I wish I was busy domestic Goddess like my sisters (cousins included), and can hold luxurious fabric to embroidery the most precisely geometrical 'Bavalia stich', or slow moving satin and chain stitch on sarees to give away as gift, or knitting or sewing. While they are busy working , they are sharing gems of life science and everything under the sun in enriching Gujarati, not stepping out for months without purpose. I am betraying my sister (my staunch supporter yet ruthless critic) who just instructed me to stay in quiet corner for some time from my relentless journey in to unknown, inner and outer world.

Sorry, Sis, My chakra's have gone haywire and creative spirit has been pushed out to make way for wonderlust. While I am working on bringing them back to its original state, I decide to take de-tour and visit corners that are not explored in me or stayed dormant!! Let me tune it to different frequency that brings abundance!

My generous friend called me to invite me for a workshop called 'Money Mantra'. Curious by the label I am drawn to it not knowing whether I am getting investment tips or ancient methods of invoking wealth in your life. It was delivered by a National and International Life-coach from Calcutta. She travels places with her workshop on many aspect of life amongst them one is also 1 day workshop on 'art of dying'. Unless you understand what you want to feel in your last moments, you will never buckle up to master the 'art of living'. Other one is SufI Dance therapy, Angel therapy. OMG, So many things to experience and so little time but I am glad I have coach to help me die completing all I need to do before my departure!!

I am lost in observing other participants: one gentleman provides aura photography, other counsillors, affluant entrpreneur wives, airline staff who practices tarrot card reading (good time pass on long haul flight, dont you think?). My maze and gaze is disturbed by my friend 'come, let me introduce you, go for hug with this course leader, her hug is very special'. (I walk toward her confused... wait a second, I am aspiring healer myself and i am suppose to be giving hug and not receiving one, I dont know how to hug her, I hope there is no power struggle between my and her energies to give more)

.... For now I have to live, travel, wear luxurious fabrics, spend on ingredients from timbaktu for exotic reciepe, give gifts, letting go of change back from rickshawala and fruitwala, give bakshish to security and porters.

...And I need 'MONEY'.

What we are initiated is process of 'prosperity consciousness'. First get clarity of the word 'prosper' and what it means to you. Money is but miniscule part of prosperity. Money is mere energy. (Oh so is she going to preach us how to be content from not having wealth and live in bliss of nothingness?? thats not what I went for!!!) She goes on to helping us understand the tendancies of fixated mindset and how to break out of it and feel abundance. lots of excercises to understand our own behaviour. Work on honest earning, Intelligent handling (uhm) and wise spending (uhm uhm uhm).


Oh now comes the best part 'ways to enhance your wealth'. And I get 36 tips to make changes in how I handle, keep and exchange money. I knew other Indian are much better than me, even laariwala always refused to take money given from my left hand. They give blank look, this gray hair Indian lady and dont even know basic practices!!' But this list is just overhaul of how I keep my money. So we learn so many things, placement of moneybox in the home, what colour to line with, what to stck outside, what else should be always be inside it. How to arrange your wallet, what colour, what has to be permanenetly there, and what must not keep in your wallet. What days to pay salary, bills, how to count the bunch.

Then there are rituals... prosperity prayers, affirmations, chakara invokation purely to enhance income, some shlokas. What I learnt from one participant is when you write affirmations if you write with your left hand then it goes in your right brain that works on your subconscious mind. all you continue without break for 21 days affirming and 40 sadhana for preparing to recieve abundance. This tonic last for 3 to 4 years of prosperity!

Why 21 day? because when you repeat something for 21 days you bring changes at neuron level in mind
and when you practice for 42 days you bring about change at cellular level in body.

so from 'doing' you become 'being'.

We do guided meditation for abundance, play games and other fun. I am called what I want for the day and I chose the name 'Kalp-Taru'. My random select affirmation came uncannily as 'Money helps me help others'. What a co-incidence. Most people got affirming lines for the day to match their names.

I am watching this multi faceted ladies who are working on spiritual upliftment and self aware at the same time quietly, confidently and invisibly aquiring wealth or think and be prepared for their abundance!! Its good we have Lakshmi ji to worship as it makes even most material minded people religious if not spiritual!!

Dont tell anyone I went for this course, I am scared my ancestors would be displeased and devastated I was thinking about money, Dont tell my guru z. They have been queing up to put me in meditative sleep and find total detachment from worldly pursuit. But like a active baby in a crib I keep on swinging my palms to world outside. I keep peeking out. They would be horrified that I unlearnt everything about spiritual side of me by earth shattering need to find wealth and abundance using same tools with which I would find ultimate bliss and happiness of reaching higher consciousness. Dont tell Keyur, he will stop transferring my spending money thinking I must any minute start rolling in abundance.

I will happily share all those golden ideas with you for befitting price-tag, ok? Except for one mantra that you can chant loud enough and send vibrations in universe...

"YOU as in Kunjal, Kalp-Taru (wish granting tree), will be showered wealth, prosperity and abundance so much that you will have Kuber to lookafter your accounts and Kamdhenu (wish granting cow) in your courtyard and you will be Lakshmi personified yourself"

Whats in it for you? Generous and charitable gesture from you will bring good Karmic rewards for you and when my seat on gold-coin mountain grows higher and higher you all come and fill up pallus and pockets from overflowing abundance.

Till then watch this space....
from a 'simply' abundant India......
