Om Namo Bhagavathe Sri Ramanaya
Who am I ? (Nan Yar?)
As all living beings desire to be happy always, without misery, as in the case of everyone there
is observed supreme love for one’s self, and as happiness alone is the cause for love, in order to
gain that happiness which is one’s nature and which is experienced in the state of deep sleep
where there is no mind, one should know one’s self. For that, the path of knowledge, the inquiry
of the form “Who am I?”, is the principal means.
Time is passing fast, already day 6 in India. Today is Saturday and the Ashram is crowded. So many Indian tourists. For lunch were at least 200 people in the dining hall. Sometimes I have the feeling Indians are naturally born spiritual. They have a deep sense for their own spiritualty. On the other hand they are growing up in a society like this, children practicing this already early.
I was walking up to the hill this morning, quiet a long strech. On the way they are selling statues and juices.
At 17:00 I joined the Chanting of the Vedas in front of Bhagavan’s Shrine again. I am getting in tune with it. Such a beautiful event, they are chanting in a canon, also some young boys are in it, around 10 people, all devotees. Following the chanting there is always one person singing, must be sommebody from the public, but deeply devoted. Today there was an Indian woman singing accompanied by a harmonium. Such a beautiful voice that tears were coming up. I felt completely blessed 😇
I was too lazy tonight to look for a restaurant. So I went to my favourite Samosa dealer. But he was running out of Samosa. OK, I can take my scooter and drive somewhere. Sitting on my scooter I realized I don’t have glasses with me. Back to the guesthouse, fetched my glasses. Again back to the scooter, the light was not working. I mean here are Indians driving sometimes without light, but I will not do this. The traffic is already chaotic. So I thought not my day for driving, easy like this. Just some meters down the road I got some Samosa, and back to my room. Time to eat and rest now.
