Peace and violence....

So much of discussion on this these days, especially after Virginia....
I identify with a school of thought that perceives the outer world to be a reflection of the inner....and all manifestations outside to be a factor of the consciousness level within.....am volunteering at my univercity for an interesting project on May 20.Dr Roger Nelson of The Global Consciousness Project in conjunction with The Club of Budapest and the Goi Foundation would be conducting a study at The Oneness Univercity in South India to measure the impact of a raising of consciousness levels on factors such as peace. The Univercity has already conducted processes with high violence groups in India with some amazing results.
Personally, see a lot of hope in the process which is secular and unconditional.....

Surrender....

"Embracing yourself as you are is the first step and the last step. You must be who you are. What you should be is not important. Whoever you are, you are unique. The universe has made you like that. God has made you like that. Why do you disturb His work? To surrender to God is to be yourself."
-Sri Bhagavan

Be there...

A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside.

"Your son is here," she said to the old man.

She had to repeat the words several times before the patient's eyes
opened.

Heavily sedated because of the pain of his heart attack, he dimly saw
the young uniformed Marine standing outside the oxygen tent. He reached out his hand. The
Marine wrapped his toughened fingers around the old man's limp ones,
squeezing a message of love and encouragement.

The nurse brought a chair so that the Marine could sit beside the
bed.All through the night the young Marine sat there in the poorly lighted ward,holding the old man's hand and offering him words of love and strength.Occasionally, the nurse suggested that the Marine move away and rest awhile.

He refused. Whenever the nurse came into the ward, the Marine was
oblivious of her and of the night noises of the hospital - the clanking of the oxygen tank, the
laughter of the night staff members exchanging greetings, the cries and moans of the other
patients.

Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said
nothing, only held tightly to his son all through the night.

Along towards dawn, the old man died. The Marine released the now
lifeless hand he had been holding and went to tell the nurse. While she did what she had to
do, he waited.

Finally, she returned. She started to offer words of sympathy, but the
Marine interrupted her.

"Who was that man?" he asked. The nurse was startled, "He was your
father," she answered.
"No, he wasn't," the Marine replied. "I never saw him before in my
life."

"Then why didn't you say something when I took you to him?"

"I knew right away there had been a mistake, but I also knew he needed
his son, and his son just wasn't here. When I realized that he was too sick
to tell whether or not I was his son, knowing how much he needed me, I
stayed."

The next time someone needs you ... just be there. Stay.

WE ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS GOING THROUGH A
TEMPORARY SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE.

at ease with oneself.....

"Each moment one has to be at ease with oneself - not trying to improve, not cultivating anything, not practicing anything. Talking or silent, moving, unmoving, the essence is at ease. The essence is at ease: that is the key statement. So do whatsoever you are doing, but at the deepest core remain at ease, cool, calm, centered."

KBC and other things...

been rather hectic off late..professional and social commitments...
posting takes a back seat at these times...
was on the sets of kbc recently , courtesy ajay(on my blogroll) ....a social movement of sorts...the public frenzy is still there..and the new host...well...he is a natural people's person though it sure must be tough to go through those episode shoots in quick succession and maintain a creative exuberance...
my profession takes me into a lot of live programming spaces...guess monotony is a natural emergence everywhere...but such shoots seem to be at a different level..couple of episodes daily in a shoot span of about 10-15 days can sure get tiring with it's monotony...
definitely would not grudge the man the monies he is reputed to have been paid for this...tough job....
and this one from my inbox....
DEATHS THAT MADE EVEN TOP DOCTORS WONDER...
This case happened in a hospital's intensive care ward where patients always died in the same bed and on all Sunday mornings at 11a.m, regardless of their medical condition.This puzzled the doctors and some even thought that it had something to do with the supernatural. No one could solve the mystery as to why the deaths took place at 11 AM. So a world-wide expert team was constituted and they decided to go down to the ward to investigate the cause of the incidents. So on the next Sunday morning few minutes before 11a.m. all doctors and nurses nervously waited outside the ward to see forthemselves what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some were holding wooden crosses,prayer books and other holy objects to wardoff evil........
Just when the clock struck 11... and then...... then..... then........ John Galt, the part-time Sunday sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support system & plugged
in the vacuum cleaner!!!!!!!!!!

neuro programme....


This is weird, but true! While sitting at your desk, make clockwise
circles with your right foot. (go ahead no one will see you) While
doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand.
lo and behold........................
Your foot will change direction.
