Start of Meditation - A Practical Approach

So now you have read 10 books on Meditation, attained 5 seminars and in couple of occasions you have enjoyed your 5 mins quick meditation practical class followed by Happy Hour. You will not quite need to follow this blog.

But for those who do not know about the concept of Happy Hour, please read on --

At your home 80% of the floor-space is occupied by Furniture, Toys, Bins, JhaDus, Water Buckets etc. And you are in dare need of doing Meditation because you are very disappointed with life about so and so reason. Well no problem, here is your first step of Night-Only-Meditation (or arguably just heading for some concentration activity):

1. Ask everyone in your family to go inside a room or tell them to go outside and a walk for 10 mins, so that now you have at least one room or one room and some ++space, like kitchen/living room/bathroom etc.

2. Make it completely dark. close all the windows, fly all the curtains, turn off all the lights. Now you are more like a completely blind person, not born-blind, but a person who has seen lights and know the location of the objects inside the home clearly just a short while ago.

3. Now just walk around, from one corner of your house to another corner, just random walk. But there are 2 conditions, i) You MUST NOT touch any object inside the house other than just the floor, and ii) You have to keep walking for 10 mins at least. If you touch any object then your timer resets.

Now you know first stage of concentration/meditation.

Oh did I mention, you can walk naked too (as we know about naked-yoga-culture), no one is at home, complete freedom!

Those days we used to call Thriving-Bengal Days, or more accurately at the tangential top of the inverted-smiley-face curve, if I may call, just before started everything declining. Planned-City-Chittaranjan to Barakar to Asansol, Planned-City-Burnpur to Ranigang to Planned-City-Durgapur - everywhere thriving. Our village is situated about 7kms from Chittaranjan and on /Viswakarma/ puja day we will visit Chittaranjan Locomotive Factory or Hindusthan Cables Factory, because on that day factories used to open for public. Each of the department would perform their own Puja (Kudo's to those dedicated Surveyors, they knew simple ways to compete, and to inspire) and distribute Prasad to all the visitors.  And our enjoyment was to see those biiiig machines, huge belts, super-size fans, mystic Sirens - "Ei dyekh dyekh ei tau baaje-rea, Baba rea oto dhur thyei-ke shyun-te pai". While walking back we would steal some "Roma Suti" from the fields and enjoy the hap

#WorldWaterDay - The Bangalore WATER Crisis

Image
For sometime I wanted to write few lines about Bangalore water crisis. And what better day to write about, other than today, the #WorldWaterDay.  I have a long relationship  with the city. In 90's I lived in the city for 6 years when I was studying in Indian Institute of Science and then my first job here. I loved the city more than any other  Indian city, because of it's people, beauty, weather. Its weather was so good that, we used to call it "The Air Conditioned City", there were so many trees were here that  we used to call this "The Garden City". After living in the US for some years, when I decided to come back, there was only one city that came in my mind, it was Bangalore. Last  3 years I am living here. The city is totally changed in last decade or so. The population has gone up by almost 10 folds since 90's. Everywhere concrete jungle. No space  left for making new roads or plantation. Oh, sorry I am deviating from what I wanted to
