When there is fear, doubt, faithlessness and misery, understand that the ego is working. When there is peace, contentment, and bliss, know that the Self is shining and the ego is absent.
I didn’t feel very well this morning; my nose was still running. At 08:30, I left for Satsang with Amma. While driving on Perumpakkam Road, my bike’s motor started to stutter. This old bike doesn’t have a fuel display like my scooter, so I ran out of fuel. Fortunately, I was just 100 meters away from Sampath’s garage. He was already coming towards me. He asked me to leave the bike at his garage, he will get some fuel soon. In the meantime, instead of having Satsang, I had breakfast at Sathya’s. When I walked back to the garage Sampath was not yet there. After a few minutes he came with his bike, and using a pipe he got some of his fuel out and filled it in a bottle. I paid him the money for the tour from Chennai airport. He said in a few days I can get a scooter.
I drove back home and didn’t feel fit to do anything else. Alex was asking me about Garuda Restaurant and if I wanted to join him, but I had no energy. I slept for a while and in the afternoon I drove to Saatvik Restaurant for a Thali. After that I stopped at the Lassi House near the Ashram for a banana milkshake.
Back home I haven’t done anything but reading, writing, and watching movies. Waiting for the cold to leave me.
I am not still not sure how to go to Bangalore. There is a Facebook group “Tiruvannamalai Rideshare”. But they are mainly sharing a taxi between Chennai and Tiruvannamalai. I will have to make a decision.
