God is not a matter of understanding, it is a matter of experience



We are always inspired by people around us. I am grateful to the people around me. I have been created what I am today, by their inspiration. But we find only few who are inspiring character and role model for many life’s.

 I have few role models in my life, which I want personally to meet. One among them was Dr APJ Kalam.

Two years ago, he had come to Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore to deliver lecture. Where I thought I can see him closely. But entry was restricted to the IISc. Even though I tried to use the influence it was difficult to get inside.

Thought releasing is my wish, fulfilling is God’s responsibility…Power of a dream makes difference. “When the dream is powerful, the entire existence rearranges itself so that the dream can become reality”.

I have read, as small boy, looking at the seagull during fishing with his father , he has dream to fly like seagull, and his dream was powerful, DR APJ Kalam could see it reality in his life.

May be power of my dream, the existence was rearranged itself, that, the appointment with my role model was fixed. And I had a meeting with him personal.

It was a life time experience to meet him and experience his presence in front of my eyes.

Meeting was fixed in No 10, Rajaji marg, New delhi, at about 8.30PM.  I have reached the place by 7.45PM. Entered the huge Government bungalow with lot of security inside. There were few other people were waiting to meet him. My turn came and I entered, He was so simple and stood up to welcome me to his chamber to a chair in front of his chair. Truly he is “simple living and high thinking” He is one of the very few shining stars in the darkness that has engulfed since some time.

There was meditative silence inside the room. First time experiencing in my life there was current flowing, the moment I touched his feet. There was energy with him, even at the age of 81, the energetic movement spontaneous responses in the discussions was amazing. Spiritually aligned. God created a man so that he can live such life, again he can become God. He is close it.   It was a divine experience to talk to him for few minutes about me, about my agenda of meeting. There was a love, supreme peace and bliss in his eyes. The silence was real strength of joy “God is not a matter of understanding, It is a matter of experience” It was my humble attempt to experience the God in him…

After everything, though I knew the protocol and security, I have asked him to have photo with him, agreed. I did not arranged professional photographer, so I was taking out my small cyber shot camera, looking at camera, immediately he called his personal secretary to click the photo. After a few photographs. He sat back on his chair.  I felt like touching his feet and take a blessing. I have asked him, I want your blessing, though he was reluctant, I went to him and touched his feet. I should say I am blessed…

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when...

Yoga and meditation for trustful

The trust is derived from the dependability of another person; the dependability is derived from the reliability. The Reliability means consistently performing according to its set standards. Can we apply this for the human beings? Can we expect the consistence performance of any being?   The performance of any person is based on the mind and emotions. Do the mind and emotion are reliable/predictable to themselves? We expect the person to be trustful. When the mind and emotions are not reliable to himself.  How the person can be reliable to others? Then, can the person become trustful to the others is the big question…? No one can be defined as perfect trustful, but some people are obviously more reliable than others to you in those regards. Based on the individual priorities people define the trust and decide who can be more trust or less trust. There is no perfect trust person available. Try and control your mind and emotions as much as po...

Poverty

“What is poverty – the state of being extreme poor ”. Different people have the different poverty. Someone has poverty of wealth. some body has poverty of love, peace,  happiness, health… Everyone has the poverty. Everyone undergo the poverty. Nobody has abundance of everything.   Man was going to temple and saw the beggars sitting at the entrance and explained his child they are poor people and poverty state. He went inside the temple and started praying with the God to provide the health. Child was confused. My experience in the life is that, each one undergoes all type of poverty at different time. When I started my life I had poverty of money, worked for some time and started the business. The moment started experiencing money in hand started feeling the poverty of love after some time got married. Again found poverty of happiness then we had a child and so on. Also my experience is poverty of one can lead to poverty of other. The poverty def...
