Guidance for Seekers
Discipline is to refrain from moving with the tendencies of the mind (vasanas). The ego must be kept under the watchful eye of awareness. All external and yogic disciplines come under this. This internal discipline is direct and the only way to bring about an essential change.
Another sunny day in Assagao. On the last day in the Outhouse, tomorrow I will move into the main house, for the next six days here. I had a chat with Maha in the morning, then I kept on working on my laptop. When the neighbors started the cement mixer I went into my room. My earphones, along with some music, are very helpful in reducing the noise from the construction. At one point in the early afternoon, I fell asleep. I slept for one and a half hours. Coming back I went to the main house and prepared a coffee. Kabir already escaped, avoiding the noise 😄
I felt like doing something, so I left for Mapusa. I stopped at Tulsi Cafe to have a Mysore Masala Dosa. Then I left my scooter there and walked to the big market.
Somehow a second pair of Flip Flops came to my mind, and many shops are selling them. I just stopped at a street stand, tried the first pair, and bought them for 100 Rupees (€1,10). It’s ten times cheaper than in Portugal. I saw a Sweet Mart and got some sweets.
Back in Assagao, I kept on working on our app. At one point the Internet was gone. It’s not the first time, sometimes it’s very unstable, coming and going. The rest of the day the Internet was not available. I have enough Gigabytes in my mobile account, but in Assagao it doesn’t work properly with several providers. Somehow a Black Hole.
