hmmm....so finally i got around to create my own blog about my daily happenings. a lot goes through my mind everyday and it isn't such a bad idea to preserve it for posterity. a number of times in my life i have written things-maintained dairies, keep track of myself-sometimes successfully, sometimes not. i hope what i start today remains for sometime.

today is not such a bad day....its rather auspicious i would say. its the day of guru purnima. a day on which we must thank our gurus for showing us the way. if i think of gurus i can think of 3 people who have been insturmental to me. there are a number of other i would like to thank though. i think i should start with fritjof capra, not a guru but a person who changed my outlook towards life and science. i was primed for better things to come which came in the form of guru vimlananda, who was presented to me by his disciple from usa, robert svoboda(and he does have a website....www.drsvoboda.com). and then i found the book called tripura rahasya which is a book on dialogues and discussions between shri parashurama and shri dattatreya. dattatreya is considered to be the best man ever to have walked this earth and i can imagine why. apart from this line of thought another person who has affected my thinking regarding a number of things has been osho. yes, his take on things from mundane to spiritual have an element of truth that i feel can only emanate from a person with a being as clear as the surface of a lake on which a full moon reflects as clear as if the moon had come down on earth. thanks to all my gurus, in past present and future on this auspicious day for time is but a relative experience of the mind.

having firmly imbibed what my gurus have given me i am free in this life of mine to experience things in the light shown to me and clear my skeptical mind as the realizations happen. its a personal journey otherwise and i am sure i enjoy the journey as much as i would enjoy the goal. i will take this slow and even if i reach i might pretend i havent....travel has its own fun.

met a guy called renju today.....met him before at walmart. he is from kerala probably but born and brought up in mumbai. he has been pretty dogmatic about meeting me.....never seen a guy so bent up on seeing me though a lot of my friends have been quite attached to me in the past. either way, it might be a lot of things. i am yet to find out what the causes are...seem benign to me at the moment.

art fair is goin on in the town right now. everything is overpriced as only things can be in usa on a streetside. but then i like the way people have money to pursue their art. i guess i will take back some of the accessibility and freedom from here regarding my watercolors. i wish to do 4 things in my life.....is that too much.....i ask sometimes. may be not(i consider myself a gemini...an expert in multitasking). the 4 things in my life are-health(personal and public), hinduism or spirituality(i consider them synonymous), painting and writing. these are the 4 areas of life that i guess my life shall concentrate upon. 3 cheers to this life of mine.

i guess i shouldn't write about half of my life right now just coz i started this blog today(though there sure is an underlying fear that i might not return back to this just like a log i started a long time back and all it has is the notes from 1 day of life of mine). but i am hoping that since i am starting this log on this auspicious day of guru purnima i seek blessing from my gurus and hope that i continue writing about this matrix of mine for a long time to come. HOT.
