Andariki,
SRI NANDANA NAMA SAMVATSARA SUBHAKANKSHALU!!!
(Telugu New Year Ugadi Greetings in advance... :) - it's on 23rd March)

I don't know what makes me wait, but from past 5 years I was looking forward for this year to start. Might be it's the year name that attracted me the most with which I have associated many things in my life to happen.....
My previous post on Ugadi says everything(with the list of years).
Here is the link: http://kalpana01.blogspot.in/2007/03/happy-ugaadi.html

NANDANA means 'intense joy or delight'. I wish the same to everyone in their life.

HAPPY UGADI!! (once again :))
Good Luck!!!

It means 'the crazy me'. Yes, you heard it right... :)
Few days back, I scrolled my blog to view some older posts.
Flair for Languages
And, this was one that made me laugh and helped me look back..
The words,
'I now feel Spanish is easier than French.'
'love the pronunciation since it's different'
caught my attention. Those were my innate feelings. 6 years down the line, now I am learning Spanish. I even asked recently which language is easier to learn, when I already knew this from deep within. Now, the lesson learnt is to give complete attention to my'self' and just do what I want without wasting time... :)

The lines which caught my attention when in Dharmapuri Temple are in these pics. I believe. And the energy within the Dhyana Mandir is amazing. Will definitely visit again... :)

Nothing matters when you are badly sick. [festivals, food, customs...]
Nothing matters you even when hurt, if you are a realized being.
Nothing matters who is beside you when you experience Oneness. [enemy, friend, animal, ...]
Nothing matters when you know to befriend Death.
Nothing matters when your mind becomes Still.
Nothing matters when you know Who You Are...

Now as I still don't know how to get there, everything matters...
The song that I would love to listen every time is here. Check the link, if interested. :)

1. Ee madhya travel chesthunnappudu, nenu observe chesthunnadi, chinnapillalu adukkovadam. Ofcourse, mundu chusaaanu. But ippudu inkaa ekkuvayyindi. It's hurting me. Edo okati cheyaali. Idi oka business ayipoyindi ippudu. :( Temples deggara enti, ekkada padithe akkada kanipisthunnaaru. Peddavaallu vaalla svardham kosam veella childhood ni nasanam chesthunnaru. Manam dabbulu daanam chesthunnamu anukuntaam kaani akkada pillalu inkaa ekkuva mandi thayaaru avuthunnaaru. Alaa, maname vaalla bhavisthyaththuni naasanam chesthunnamu. Daanam cheyaali anukunte, donate veggies/fruits/biscuits, adi kudaa peddavaallaki(old age) lekapothe health related issues tho suffer avuthunna vaallaki.
I wish this child begging stops very soon.
Oka local train lo ee website chusaanu... Hope, this helps in proceeding further. http://stopchildbegging.webs.com/

2. Buses strike valla, monna local train chaala rush gaa undi. Ladies compartment unnaa, train aage okka nimisham ki, aa rush lo I couldn't get into it. General ekkesaa. Akkada Gents comments, Ladies di undi kadaa, adi ekkithe baagundedi adi idi ani... Vinna vinnaa, I couldn't take it for long, idi Gents compartment aa ani adigaaa??? General ae kadaa, meeru elaa ekkaro nenu alaane ekkaa anna. Debbaki andaru silent. I had my respect. 1 good thing is people understood.

3. Ninna temple ki vellinappudu, enduko akkada money hundilo veyaali anipinchaledu. Thought of doing something outside.. So, got fruits and donated the same(kushtivyadhitho baadhpaduthunna vaallu). Vaalla kallalo nenu chusina happiness was amazing. But, entha kaalam ilaa bayate untaaru? Eminaa homes unnayemo thelusukuni vaallani cherpinchaali.

4. Eppudu bayata unna andaalane(nature) photos theesthu undedaani. Suddengaa 2 days nundi enduko, nenu chaala vaatini differentiate chesthunna ani ardhamayyindi. I am not able to look at everything in the same way. Nenu maaaraali. Started seeing life the other way. Road meeda bobbalu unna sareeramtho nadusthunna vyakthini chusaa... Suddengaa moham thippesukunnaa.. Nenu enti ilaa anukuni malli chusaa. I took that courage to see him. Tharuvaatha people suffering with leprosy and all. Chudatam modalu pettaa. Mundu oka laanti bhayam undedi. Vaallu manalaanti manushulekadaa anipinchi, velli vaallake apples ichchi vachchaaa. Felt happy from inside. Inkaa nenu chaala vaatini overcome cheyaali.. I know it will happen as it already started... :) For all this change in me, I can only thank Sadhguru.

5. Fears still strike. Burralo thoughts unnantha kaalam ee badha thappadu kadaa. I know the medicine. Serious effort pettali.

May the festival of Navaratri bring joy and prosperity in your life, Happy Navaratri!
Let us all join together and listen to Devi Suktam.
