Until there is the thought, there can be no other thought. When other thoughts arise, ask, “To whom? To me? Where does this ‘I’ arise?” Thus, by diving inward, if one traces the source of the mind and reaches the heart, one becomes the sovereign lord of the universe. There is no more dreaming of such things as in and out, right and wrong, birth and death, pleasure and pain, light and darkness, the boundless ocean of grace and light, and Arunachala dancing the dance of stillness in the dancing Hall of the Heart.
It was quite windy last night, so it was this morning. I slept well for the first night. It is raining today, not heavy yet, but here and there. It feels different today and I don’t have any impulse to do anything. I fell asleep again after breakfast for 1 hour or more …
In Sathya’s cafe for breakfast I met Jonathan again. It is really inspiring talking to him. He is travelling around Asia for years, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, India. At one point you have to leave a country because your Visa expires. Then Nathan joined us and had some breakfast. He is from Canada, going tomorrow to Nepal because of his Visa expiring. Jonathan plans end of January going to Sri Lanka, this is my plan as well. 31st January would be day 90 for me in India. I can come back to India after Sri Lanka.
I had some Masala Dosa in Sathya’s cafe, didn’t feel to go out. Just for the 16:00 tea I was in the Ashram, a while in the Meditation Hall and then the chanting. Again an amazing Indian female singer, no other women can sing as an Indian.
For tomorrow I am planning to join Satsang in Sri Jnana Ganga Mandiram. There is Satsang with Ganga Maa, I didn’t meet her yet.
