Just walked into office. A nice day. The maid did a lot of work around the house by her own initiative. She talks a lot, but she is a good soul overall.
The day is warm. The winter I daresay is officially over. Spent a good 10 mins trying and finally succeeding in stuffing the quilt back into it's tiny plastic zipped bag. Quite a invigorating workout.
Somehow, day feels very happy. Everyone feels light. Met I in the lift. That Sardarji always makes me laugh. He is rather witty.
So at my desk and R, who has herself lost a significant amount of weight following a regimen of good diet and yoga, asked me if I was dieting because I seemed to have lost weight.
I told her that I was not dieting which is 100% true. But with the shock of S's death, where for a few days I really couldn't eat well out of stress and shock really, and then immediately falling sick with a cold, I didn't eat my usual for over 2 weeks and that must be showing. Yesterday Papa also commented same.
Since I feel lighter and better overall, other than the strange pain around right side of my chest, sometime my heart area on left side, and sometimes mid back on right side, as well as the right arm and forearm, where there is this strange pain at a sudden angle..sometimes radiating to the right thumb for over a few months now...other than this I feel pretty healthy.
So came across this guy on You tube running a You Tube channel called "mindbodyspirit". He is a young man...28..and is a calm, relaxed, intelligent speaker. He has been meditating since he was 8. And he has produced good content of Affirmations and Law of Attraction. I liked listening and tend to agree to a lot he says as it resonates.
I sat down to work, logged in and as usual my mind goes "find a story" rather than do work. Ha ha. Nothing new. Story telling should be my work man! And Amen to that.
For some reason ..and I think the association would be 'Meditation' Vinod Khanna popped to my mind. Vinod Khanna, besides being a superstar in the 70's and late 80's was also a very famous disciple of the often infamous Osho Rajneesh. And while Osho rose to and fell from grace, Vinod Khanna, as a simple, solid, dependable, emotionally uncomplicated pathan, remained loyal to his Guru through any public image. When I witness my Cousin Bhaiya R, display similar unshakable faith in Asaram Bapu, I understand this to a certain level.
I don't fully comprehend it...but I recognize this loyalty. I have seen it in several people. I really explain it as a conviction of the heart that cannot be shaken from outside. If it shatters anytime, it has to be from inside only.
So came across this website/blog on Vinod Khanna. Reading it with a degree of interest.

Nothing new....I have read all of these similar tid bits several times before, over the years, but still....
Also listening to "Heartfulness Meditation" by a certain Daaji. Interesting listening. He calls for focusing on the heart area but emphasizes it is not concentration. At present I cannot figure out how there is a difference and he maintains that distinction, but pleasant listening no doubt.
Anyways, the blog started and ended. Disappointing.
So what now...nothing.
