Watch Man !!!

yesterday i was going through this subway and saw some iron rods lying in an order so that no one can speed up or drive cycle thru... the very first thought in mind was no one's around so why not jump and move ahead but then some how realised this is not India, let me walk as directed and as I moved few more steps, I could see a police officer sitting and observing the passers.

Its normal here that police has cameras placed all over. streets, malls, every where. mind was wondering, if cameras cud be in subway ( rather sab-way) , which i cud not see till i reached a point near officer, why isnt it possible that to believe god too is watching us and everything I do can be seen and is being noted ? Well until one meets guru or the officer, one cannot see this watch man but yes it doesnt mean no watches ..

well , time time ki baat hai... india nahin :-)

दिल्ली दूर है?

Its almost a week now, since I landed in UK. Journey so far has been mixed sort. Neither too good nor too bad. I can recall the first day’s feel which seems to be alive, “ Wasn’t worth keeping a dream in mind”. All those onsite talks, and movie scenes that gave me a sigh, I feel I cud have lived better. Anyways, some things are learnt better after seeing. Don’t know why but I think, a travel outside wasn’t for me but may be my dreams made Him draw lines for me. Thanks Babaji. Apologies if my desires weren’t as per your earlier plans.

Each day seems to go without having learnt the basic teaching of thankfulness. Coming here was a dream. And even after landing here, there’s lot more in dreams. No thanks for what got fulfilled. Bakshna.

No matter what little I believe or talk, there’s so much that has been bestowed when it comes to blessings from you. Everything when it comes, there’s something new to look upon. Don’t know why but humans were created to dream. May be for growth. Growth but what kind of ?

Why don’t I dream of learning thankfulness. Of loving all. Of being broadminded. There’s so much to learn, and I seem to ignore and move ahead. May be there’s lack of efforts from my side, but I do believe that this efforts too can come only if you say yes to them. All those parables you talk, don’t arise until you make them happen. You agree or disagree or what ever you convey, you are smart enough to astonish people like me.

Babaji, aap to maalik ho. Mere jaise ko bhi baksh lo. Abhi nahi sikha kisi ko bakshna but aap karwao to karwa hi loge mere jaise se bhi. Itni iccha hoti hai sabse pyaar karne ki, itna aap dete bhi ho but shayd abhi bhi kisi ko dena nahin aaya. Aap pakade rakho, aapka bharosa to hai but pata nahin kabhi kabhi dar lagta hai..

I-LAND

is-land :something resembling an island, esp. in being isolated or having little or no direct communication with others.

Was just wondering today the beauty of word "Island" ; Island refers to isolated land with no direct communication with others, the 's' being silent in this. If we remove 's' from Island and it becomes 'I-land', the way it is pronounced.

Isnt the scene same, when I live in my own land ? Not caring about any one else's emotions. At that very moment, I am 'I' and am away, isolated from rest of the world. Totally cutoff from rest of the lands aka people.

Very rightly is the land pronounced "I(s)land", ie not connected with the rest of the lands.
