GURU- A wonderful experience of life which younger generations are missing in experience!!!

                  The  experience for having guru in life is really mysterious than wonder for it's just like having a god to relate with. As my mentor says the first guru are our parents, but we need to think genuinely weather we reach to the level of a guru for our children, but if we can then that is the greatest gift we can be for our children to be their  GURU!!!! .Of all the trainings i got from my mentor the best one was to be an enlightened mother, the experience is the magical turning point of a woman if she is tuned with nature. Thankyou Dr,Prasad Sundararajan.

                       Just like the training for the Spirit and the Mind the training for the body is also as important. The bharathanatyam and mohiniyattam, trained me in yoga and grace. More than the dance the linkage with the guru entity MRS Kalamandalam Mani teacher is a real wonderful experience. I also remember all the teachers from the pre-school to today who has been great linkages in my being in the MAGICAL MOMENTS OF MY LIFE----THANKYOU ALL!!!.

                                                   I still remember an accounts professor's experience during my MBA times. I joined for my MBA after my B.sc Community science, i loved business  and management but not ACCOUNTS!!!!!!!!!!!!. I just could not conceptualize that  subject. Our accounts teacher was very strikt but very spiritual person.
                                     Once during the time of the sabarimala season he was in sabarimala fast i waited for him outside the class. I explained to him, my situation. I told him, "Sir i genuinely don't want to hurt you scoring this low marks, but i am trying hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The subject account does not enter my head, BUT I HAVE TO GET MY MBA, to make my dreams of greater things in life for the world to come true. " I STILL REMEMBER  THAT DAY I JUST CAUGHT HIS FEET  ---HE JUST LOOKED INTO MY EYES AND TOLD, KEEPING HIS HAND ON MY HEAD, MY BLESSINGS ARE THERE WITH YOU ,YOU WILL CLEAR THIS PAPER, I PROMISE YOU. I wont scold you again for from your eyes i understand the honesty of your spirit. I remember that moment when i sensed those blessings!!!!!, i bless you to be a great person were his last words to me  .

                              I cleared my ACCOUNTS!!!and was selected as the best outgoing student by  Birla 3m HR.Vice president Selvam George. I still remember those days. 
     The destiny has made us unique and wonderful.

To understand those mys tries of our magics , we need to be humble and surrendered to our own spirits first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Without the linkages of our own guru's in our life's and their blessings we wont find the magic!!!!! 

matru pitha guru deivam

"With all process of life if we have no linkages to our guru in our life , we will not find our OWN GURU INSIDE US"

SIMPLICITY-Simple actions and simple things and the mystery of beauty of wonder and beauty in them!!!

                                                 This picture actually reminded the beauty of the mystery around the simple things of  life. In the speed of life don't miss the simple beautiful things around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

A small flower can add beauty to the whole room, i have seen that most of the time the creative photographers are so sensitive to these beautiful things around. The speed of life with the designations and salaries and E Mi's we forget to REALLY SEE THESE  magical things around us!!!!! We forget to appreciate the magical small actions of people around us, we forget to thank the little small things around us???Why???

My mentor taught me long back" Do small things beautifully, for many small things make a big thingg" --Thank-you Dr.Prasad Sunderarajan for this great learning!!!

                     The mystery of life is in the details, focus on the details my metor taught me, the rest of the magic will happen naturally he said. Then it sounded funny to me twenty years back, but today i understand that magic sir.

    Even in relationships if the simple things are appreciated that's were love happens!!! Watch out for the simple things and simple people, a lot of magic with these simple things and simple people. But they don't care about the magic, that's the mystery about simplicity . Let us learn this magic from nature!!!!

SURRENDER TO NATURE-"Sublimate it to Nature and nature-processes and as a discovered sense of gratitude. "---Dr.Prasad Sundararajan

                                            

                   As usual i always come up with a doubt to my great mentor with a new setting that life presents me with curiosity. This  Sunday  was a unique Sunday!!!! As i conceptualize my mentors training to focus on my nature and nature processes to master myself when people treat me at times badly for being good.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                        Today morning i asked my mentor what do we do when people sometimes treat you badly for being good ????? As usual i get a little hurt!!!!!!!!!!!!As usual my master trainer fired me . He told me  " Just move out and relax ,from the present setting".  "For when someone is intelligently treating you badly , understand that if it is negative don't interfere with that process, focus on the positive processes that nature as tuned you to do   AND do only that  WHAT IS REQUIRED IN THE particular ,time -space setting. Don't let any relationship affect the decisions of the core entity spirit inside you." Wow it put me back to my life track with million times of energy.The power of intelligent dialogues Dr.Prasad Sunderarajan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am blessed to have you as a mentor sir!!!


                                          "Sublimate it to Nature and nature-processes and as a discovered sense of gratitude. "---Dr.Prasad Sundararajan  .No family relations, friendships, or any sort of relationships should affect the  KARMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. THIS WORLD TALKS A LOTS ABOUT GOOD THINGS. But i am sure with my own life and work experiences that a competent person with work and character is a threat to the so called SOCIETY!!! , once you are original, people find it difficult. And when i watched Blessy's movie Kalimanu today about the role of the mother taking the role of a goddess, during the delivery i just overheard a little voice inside me say " Priya this life is too short and beautiful, to retain a artificial face for being  in the good books of  other people in life and work ---just be MY ORIGINAL SELF" . I have to be true only to the god inside me , i don't have to  wear the MASK AND I WILL NOT....................................

                 I only have to "Sublimate it to Nature and nature-processes and as a discovered sense of gratitude. "---Dr.Prasad Sundararajan thankyou so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

THE STORY OF A ROSE

As usual wanted to do something different for my son's birthday, when my husband Rajeev krishna gave me ten thousand rupees  ito do something for the needy people.  I decided to use half the money for the kids near the office staying in a orphanage. I did not know that the orphanage had only boys and in the process of getting gifts for them i bought lots of roses too.

THE ROSES I BOUGHT FOR THEM!!!!

As i reached the orphanage the first day ,i realized that there were only boys and my friend s,  Rithu asked me if i was going to give these roses for these boys???. All the boys looked at me strangely too!!!!!!!

   I told rithu since we have bought for them with all love, lets just give them.As we gave the roses there were gigles in the face of the boys, me and Rithu too laughed and we had team with them.

                 Finally i saw that holding the rose in the hands 90 percent of them had the masaladosa and tea. Then i asked them did you like the rose????  The boys were 35 in nos of which 14 were teenagers, they said "Madame till today we never got a flower from anybody we just love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!".  

                      I was honestly shocked that they loved flowers so much.  Then the whole day went well and they sang songs too for us, we too sang for them, the presencence of Ramchandran( A good friends) also , made the time with the kids so beautiful.!!!

I realised that these people wanted love more than anything!!!!  

Then again i visited them with all my family memebers and the love that they showed me was shocking, i told them that i would visit them again on a sunday with date. I was shocked to see them waiting for me. And they had written song too to sing for me.  

       The rose taught me a great lesson, All want love !!!!!!And open your eyes and ears there are people around who can love you sincerely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are lots of people around who want our love and time. Hence friends more than money and food if you have time and love too,its a great assets for the orphan kids and needy people around !!!!
We all have something to give!!!Even a rose will do magic, if it has love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RADHA,MY HEROINE-Radha i love her, she is so mysterious!

                       I wonder if Krishna fell in love with Radha first!.For Radha was in total love with no conditions in total surrender. And the greatest beauty of her is her unconditional love and in her physical beauty i love her grace!I felt her very mysterious for she would have been the real inspiration for lord Krishna what a beautiful linkage she had with lord Krishna.

My painting of their love!!!!!

To be such a wonderful person, but whenever he is busy with his duties or he is not there she is still in love, just in love for her nature is that
                I have seen her only on photos and with little reading knowledge on her. But with all the stories i have heard about her i love her mystery and grace lots.

Today my friend told me that  whatever she too collected the information about Radha was too mysterious and short. I have a huge collection of these Radha-Krishna idols and i paint them lots too.
  The mystery of the event is that most of the gifts i receive are the pictures of Radha-Krishna. Whenever someone gifts me Radha-krishna the tears of joy ,wonder and surprise comes together for me .I wonder how do people understand my love for Radha? I love the radha i still see her in the sky,sense her singing in the nature,dancing in the rain  smiling with the rainbows. Radha i love you a lot!!!I am sure you were a mystery to Krishna!! You loved at a level beyond possessions, u are inspiring Radhaji!!

FOCUS ON YOU-Life-"If a egg is broken by outsideforce life ends"If broken by inside force life begins"!!!!

THE FIRST STEP! Take the first steps in your life!! IT'S UR LIFE!!

                                                   The first step i took for so many tough positive things made my LIFE TODAY!!!! "The first steps in your life should be to find the SECRET of your life , and then to develop the  POWER to train yourself to live the MAGIC of your life"

From childhood the decision to live beautifully at any cost on small steps only!!! My mentor(Dr,Prasasd Sunderarajan) always told me,"To focus on the smallest details" For by taking lots of first small steps only a big steps happen.

  Competency also can be trained in ourselves only by taking the first steps to be a leader in one's own life and work.If ?we cant be leader ourselves how do we inspire our friends,family and colleagues?

I remember the first day when i went to learn dance 3 years back , for the first few dance steps i literally had tears in my eyes. For i was overweight and i was lazy. The pain of  not exercising was very high. With pain i took the first few steps, today people call me a dancer!!!!. The decision of leading a beautiful life to be put into action in the first few days of your life , then with time and practice it will become a habit.

       One's you discover your own uniqueness  in life, then you will have the Power automatically to create the magics of life ,but be tuned with nature. Respect your identity and the nature inside you , one you discover the specialty inside you, then you will not allow any force to destroy that power!!!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING- A casual question that people ask!!!!! What they mean majority of them is only career and salary!!!!!

What are you doing??? A casual question that people ask!!!!! What they mean majority of them is only career  and salary!!!!!

                                     As a child i thought about this question a lots for in the school days people asked this question for the grade and the rank. As we grow it becomes applicable to our job and earning. Actually the sucess of a person in life has got to do with a lots of things, i feel i mean my perception to sucess is how we live our unique life in a beautiful way.

             First i like to share this beautiful concept that one of my friend shared with me "There is actually nothing called failure, we only fail a group of peoples expectations and judgements  about us or our actions" How can all of us individually so unique even be compared to another individual in this world??  Each one of us have a different setting of heredity and environment . We should grow every moment as a better individual.

                        Whenever i used to come back to  work after a career break which i take often to live with calmness, the people are so confused why i don't focus on earning high amount of salary!!!!. It was just that in that particular time space setting my focus was dancing and living.!!!All of us have different interests and flow of activities in life , i always wonder why people create a pattern mainly only to earn money not ever for a good quality life.Money is important and it is a necessity , but there are lots of other factors too in life, to be successful in living before we leave this body!

I love to dance!!!

      I have seen the " WEIRD LOOK" , in the eyes of the people after being so called highly qualified academically and when i took a break in career for a small consultation job, dance, research and time with family. I know the amount of quality rocking life i had during this calm breaking phase of my life. I really don't care if people call me foolish and stupid. For i feel the first preference in life is to know: Who we are? What will we do before we die? And what good work will we leave behind to make this world a better place, at least for our family and friends.Live  beautifully,live life alive!!!

Next time someone ask you what are you doing ??Think before you answer!!! And live before you die!!!

                  Now a days any education we receive is only for career and marriage, no education to live beautifully and  to face death bravely !!!!No education to do our karma!!! No education to learn a art form. What a shocking flow of the future!!!Youngsters be careful we need to live beautifully too!!!

MARRIAGE!!!!

                    "Orimuzhi"  this movie made me write this blog on marriage. From childhood i was really scared of the word marriage, especially because people said in the village at mahe , that we will loose our full freedom. This Malayalam movie "Orimuzhi"shows how clearly, the parent's relationship influences our style ,of relating to our spouses too.


         

                                       Many times fear is a major factor, that spoils a relation in marriage, especially of loosing the partner. And to be honest people say its difficult after marriage i wonder still why!!!!!. Personally i have many fights in my marriage but i love my life partner, a love beyond the necessity of the WORD MARRIAGE. I love the climax of the movie "Ozhimuri" where the heroine divorces for her dignity, individuality, freedom and respect in life, but still she takes care of her husband as his best friend in the old age!!!! .The way the director has directed the matured dignified love in the end is beautiful. You require genuine love to love beyond the words and the reasons!!!

                    Marriage is a beautiful relationship if there is mutual respect, love,transparency and dignity between the partners. With the creative growth of the two individuals with time the relationship become wonderful every moment  , for every moment there is a creative positive change in both the partners. Most of the time a relationship is carried for just to be secured, there starts the boredom of marriage!!!!!.

                    With the decision to have children comes the climax of the marriage, for we are inspiring our own creations to be enlightened in life. I feel being the  the mother a woman, gets the real power to be the godess. Any relationship there should be love in it ,i mean genuine love. The moment a marriage is over there is a cold relation between the spouses!!!!. See your life partners new face every moment  and every day !!!Inspire each other to live beautifully and creatively!!!Let marriage be not just a word but a magical relation for your mysterious side to evolve and enlighten!!!"If your love is true and genuine, magics do happen in any relations  I MEAN  IN GENUINE RELATIONS BEYOND THE WORD MARRIAGE!!!!

THE KANYAKUMARI-Vivekananda and the mysterious People

                                         


                  At a conscious level when i got a call for the Kanyakumari programme i said no, for to get Permission from my husband for this wandering would be a little difficult i guessed. But at a deeper level i wanted to go for i had never seen the place and read some experiences of Swami Vivekananda and also intuitively felt i had to be there i wanted to the sense the mysterious nature there!!!. I remembered the quote in the alchemist book " When you love something genuinely with your heat love it and then set it free, if its yours it will come to you, and the trip came to me!!!"

                                                     I get a message from the organizer the morning of the trip to keep the mind open or free for the magics of the retreat. Though we are aware of all positive things around us and within us a small reminder is always helps. As my husband slept of we had to catch a moving train at 4am in the morning and the adventure began from the journey--Jumping the platforms and the trains!!!! And unusually my husband placed his hand over my head and blessed me with a smile and he said "As usual ,Priya with your unusual doubts please inspire the world and people!!!" I knew he was pulling my leg!!!  I had a small nap in the train , I was woken by a confusion in the train that some fellow passenger lost a costly mobile. The tea boys and some cops were creating a  loud sound around. One of the fellow passenger who was a engine driver by profession told me " Priya, its a joint effort by the robbers and the police men." This is the world "Maya management is important" , i followed my mothers advice of looking poor while traveling not to expose gold , laptop or mobiles, and to look poor.
          I enjoyed the traveling, the AC saved me from the humidity and heat outside. Reached Kanyakumari and my friends came to pick me, to the Vivekananda retreat centre.I saw Veda my friend walking towards the platform,its nice to have a friend receive you at a new place. Rajmohan sir also send the car, the retreat center was close to the the station, on the way saw the shells a lots , which always reminded of -"THE KANYAKUMARI----THE SHELLS ,THE ROCK AND THE HERO SWAMIVIVEKANANDAJI!!"

                              As i entered the retreat center was happy to find swami vivekananda's picture and positive notes every where, what is this place waiting for me i wondered and i enjoyed the drive with driver nair chettan and friend veda.Had a warm welcome by Rajmohan, his sister Meenachechi and Shailaja. Felt nice with a little chit chat i was asked to take rest and freshen up from my room. Soon all of us met for the lunch and ther i found the remaining of the friends too. The presence of mini with her smile and care made me more comfortable for i knew she was my room mate, how mind tries to find comfort with familiarity and warmth i wondered. As i looked around i felt it was a long time that i travel led to a strange place alone. By 3pm all of us met for a talk by a guru from the Vivekanada Kendra, he spoke lots about --Rajayoga, Jnana yoga, Karmayoga and ???. He spoke about his personal experience to the spiritual path too. Then i gave my gift to Rajmohan sir which i had painted for inspiring me to be a part of this global forum and to be an entrepreneur!!. Evening we were supposed to go for a long walk to see the Kanyakumari sunset. Walked to the  bus stand where a small bus arrived to drop us near the sunset point, i tried to find my comfort zone by sitting next to my friend and room mate mini. All of us were getting introduced to each other, the bus reached the place in five minutes and there we began walking towards the sunset point. Mini  went with a friend , and i was left alone , wondering i looked around and smiled to my new friends. Barbra(Our Yoga trainer's), mother gave me a good company and her description of the swiss chocolates took me to a different world. To manage the taste buds i ate the cashew nuts gifted to us in the bag. After a long walk we reached the sunset point, gazing at the sun i went to a different world. All my friends were busy clicking the photographs and playing in the water. I was lost in the tuning of the nature when i looked at the son, i felt sad suddenly i wondered why,later i realized that it was my sensitive intuition that understood there was a debate waiting for me late night. The people with shell chains called me from my dreamy world with nature. And all of us walked back . It was inspiring to see meenachechi (Rajmohan's sister) ,walking with us though she was tired (I mean her body!!).All of us walked back , and then somebody reminded me that i had to speak that day evening. I was prepared to give a talk on Karma, but i was sure i will talk something else for my mind was tuned to something else. And i was a person who went by the" tuning of the moment"!!!. We reached back the training center, the  sadness i sensed at the sunset point still did not leave me!!!,  all of us had dinner and we went to the retreat room. I spoke, i don't remember even now what i spoke, for i spoke on my original experiences with life and karma. The next day's schedule was told, as i walked towards my room in the other corner of the retreat room, still my sadness did not leave me. I reached my room and my friend mini had some solid questions for me , and then i sensed why i was sad (unknowingly from the sunset point walk),my entity had sensed ,these questions of my friend. We had a long talk and discussion still the debate was not over, at one-thirty pm midnight. Then i told mini" When i have a issue end of the day, i sleep well and after my prayer and yoga in the morning, i do what comes to my mind first and i shall solve the debate thus." Went to sleep ,i usually  try to sleep with a positive mind setting, but that day it was disturbing.Then  i realized it was because i was going against my intent of the retreat "To sense the magic  of nature Vivekandaji sensed here", to normal logical thought process  . I was too tired to take a decision just slept of.The first day of the retreat ended thus.

                         Early morning we had to attend a homam also near the the ganapathy temple.On the 12th morning we had a great yoga  by Barbra at the sunrise point i really enjoyed that and realised that as Raj mohan sir told" My dancing muscles were finding it tough to adjust to the yoga stretching!!!" And my logical thoughts that disturbed me last night during a discussion with my roommate i decided to sort it today for it was against my intent of the retreat. We will have a great trip to the Vivekananda rock , wow!I was waiting for this moment. All of us took a vehicle and went to the point. On the way had some discussions with a friend Karthik on thought management. As we reached the centre for the boating to the vivekananda rock my sadness in the mind increased, i wondered why!!!. Had a great time in the boat the dust of the place was so much with the speed of the boat . Finally reached the vivekananda rock.Enjoyed and sensed the nature there it was  so BEAUTIFUL!!!I tried to visualize the entity of swami Vivekananda to swim towards this rock.As Karthik, one of my friend said Swami "Vivekananda rocks!!"   The thoughts in my logical mind was disturbing , took a decision to throw the unwanted thoughts out. On the return journey i had a long chat with Rajmohan sir .He told " Priya every moment life is teaching you something new, learn to manage thoughts,people and events." oops, i still wanted somebody to remind  me that, with my logical unwanted thoughts out of my system i felt more tuned to the place. FINALLY!!!.
                              We went to Kanyakumari devi temple, i really felt after seeing the god's face that she looks so pretty and happy she has met lord Shiva secretly for sure, my perception!!. (The story is that shiva waits for her due to some trap that lord narada maharishi created, hence this goddess is a kanyaka, --without marriage life long). The goddess looked so pretty in the nose ring, i just stared myself to see my nose ring, thank god i am married , i thought!!!What all thoughts come to the mind like the waves. I listened to the shell sound in my ears and also got gifts for people at home and friends. Returned back to the retreat center, had a long chat and drive with a friend Fayaz and chated about life and business. I got small shells  with the name carved of all who came for the retreat, for i slowly realsied , that each individual here was teaching me something more about myself too!!.
        Returned to the retreat center there were talks and after that i did not feel like doing yoga. It is so difficult for me to do things when i don't feel like doing them.I asked the permission of the yoga teacher Barbra, she said Rajmohan  sir has to agree. Went and spoke to him, he said fine but do breathing exercise when  we do yoga. I did some breathing exercise, then when i saw all were engrossed i yoga i, went for my long wandering walks. Sensed the place felt close to the entity and listening to the music of the leaves ,the dances of the birds and  sensing my entity and the bliss-full climax experience at the retreat i slept on the floor,great was this experience!!! I was so close to my intent of coming to this place i enjoyed the enlightening nature forces to the maximum, this day. Night we had bag-ans and  spiritual discussions which invoked my positive thought processes  and the next day was the arrival of Dr.Prakashan Gurikal the magical man!!!The yoga classes by Shailaja and Barbra was magical, i practice them still every day, at-least weekly five days now!!!

                            Next day early morning on the 13th we had yoga by Barbra madame in one of the parks, inside the retreat center .Soon after the yoga and wandering with Bala and his photographs and peacocks, we rushed to our rooms. Then we had a group photo session. And all of us rushed to the auditorium for the inaugural function by the mayor and Kalari master Dr. Prakashan gurikal. We had a bhagan team and we enjoyed the bhagan team lead by Veda and Meenachechi. Myself, Ram and Shailaja used to hum the lyrics when we could not follow them. After the bhagans we had a great speech by Dr. Prakashan gurikkal and kalari performance by his team. The amount of cashew nuts i ate that day i was sure i will have etc punishments at  dance classes by my dance teacher, back home. But my taste buds enjoyed them. Then we all had a good lunch and a small nap. Evening we had sessions which were so enlightening by Dr.Prakashan Gurikal. More than his kalari magic i was inspired by his humbleness and simplicity. He and his wife left early for a nap.As usual we had our spiritual discussions and bhagans for the day. I was tired i wanted sleep. Got 20 minutes to personally chat with Dr.Prakashan gurikkal, after that went for a good sleep in a new room.I just had to see the bed to sleep. I  loved this Kalri guru the magical man.My room mate Mini was busy taking care of the special guests, i went and the bed just welcomed me for the sleep!!!.

                                   Next day i was woken in the morning by Rajeev's valentine wish to thank that i was lucky to have him in my life was his love message!!! Of-course he taught me lots about love!!!. Though a joke i enjoyed the wish . I had a valentine wish from Veda also to be sensitive to my spiritual growth. All of us enjoyed the valentine wishes, and the journey started with bhagans and antakshari to the hanuman temple. The way was beautiful to the temple , Rajmohan sir reminded me to chant bhagnas and pray but i was lost in the beauty of the nature. We arrived the hanuman temple and we had good friends waiting for the temple who took us around and explained the stories behind the temple architecture and history.Then  we had lots of vada and prasadam from the temple and went to another place of historical importance.
                  It was a mountain ad top of the mountain was a beautiful temple, i had a problem of fainting and feeling light when i reached real heights, still i climbed, everything was fine and suddenly i felt my body very light, i looked down, and that was the end of my climbing i sat there alone ,closing my eyes. Then Rajmohan sir requested his friend venu sir to help me down the mountains. Jokingly i said to myself "Climbing down the hill also we might require help though we might climb up alone!!!",on a lighter note. I felt very close to nature too at that point and the return journey was a quiet one for me. We reached the retreat center by afternoon, by then Dr.Prakashan gurikal and some of the participants left. Dr. Prkashan Gurikal blessed me saying "Priya you have a unique intuitive power inside you develop that with practice, it will be useful to mankind, be careful also with this powerful weapon" Took his blessings and bid him farewell and left to the room. Evening we had yoga by Shailaja madame and some discussions and also all shared their experience of the retreat.

                         Next day morning it was raining heavily as unusually and i wanted to sleep, after a great journey, left a note to Rajmohan sir and enjoyed a great sleep.After  that rushed to the retreat point all were doing yoga, quietly joined them for yoga. Then some discussions in group and had personal discussions too with some . Packed the bag, and bid goodbye to all, the leaving  the retreat after lunch was sudden. In the station i thought about Swami Vivekananda, and his teachings. Brought lots of books too from the library, but wanted to read the "Wasted death",By Rajmohan Pillai.As the train arrived i asked the TTR for a AC compartment for i wanted to read the book the wasted death. With the vadas and the cashews and the book the journey was wonderful returning back home. As i arrived Cochin i completed the book and took a strong decision not to waiste my life and to have a beautiful death, which can happen any moment. Rajeev my husband and my son came to pick me in the station, i reached home ,i  felt i missed the moments and friends at  Kanyakumari. I said "Priya its over, tomorrow back to work" .I loved the kanyakumari but the moment is over and this is the moment i had to write it forget it and live the next moment!!! A different journey is always a shift of experience of a mysterious selves of our entity and life! Thankyou Y2S, for this spiritual journey of five days at kanyakumari!!!

 

GIFT THE WAY YOU LIVE-Back to Nature!!!!

                                                The life is the best gift, we get from nature or god or whatever force or yourself which you believe in. My gift back to this nature is the way i live with what life gives me naturally. From childhood lucky enough to be brought up in a family which gifts often to each other. Today i completed a painting which i wanted to gift to a friend who sensitized me  in the concept "Maya Management". This blog on gifting came then in my mind and decided to pen .

       It's very easy to buy a gift and to give a person. The gifts carry a personal touch when you make them!!!!. And the feeling of giving and receiving is beautiful in life. Even a smile genuine one oops,  is a gift. The way the father and mother love and lives beautifully is the greatest gift to the child. The way you take care of your parents is the greatest gift to them. The love, trust, respect and and honesty to the partner is the greatest gift to the life partner. Still to gift something to these loving people occasionally around us is a beautiful act.

          We have a  custom to buy dresses for the elders when we get a new job , or any occasion in the family. I remember one painful incident in the gifting process, when i got my first job, though the salary was not that big, i some how manged dress for all the family elders. One of my aunt and uncle who was personally angry with me, returned the gift, o i felt really sad then. I don't think we should ever insult people who gift us!!!

                      My mother always says when we do relative visits " Hai there is children in that house get something when you go there"it's a small act but ads charm to my life!!!!Initially after my wedding my husband did not believe much in gifting, though funny on my birhtday i wanted a greeting card---- And i finally bought one and gave him and asked him to gift that to me!!!!! Sometimes i buy beautiful flowers and gifts even now for myself when i feel i am really living so beautifully!!!!!!!!!!!. Hence  friends give gift  to others the best and even to yourself, the best will come to you .it's nature's law. Felt good today painting this gift for my friend.

                There is magic in the gifting process, keep gifting and u keep getting. More than all add your love and best wishes it really shows in the gift!!
