Me : Been observing life in repetitions. How to break the cycle/loop?
From Within(FW) : Observe your life, answer is there... Okay, how did you leave Chennai?
Me : With love and respect. :)
FW : Was that there before?
Me : No. I used to hate the place.. People's plays added more.
FW : How did you change?
Me : Few good friends did change my thoughts. My long pending dream, learning Yoga through Isha happened. And that became a memorable and beautiful phase. Enjoyed life to the core. It was a blessing.
FW : So, change happened right?
Me : Yes...
FW : You were saying something about people's plays?
Me : That never mattered much...
FW : How come?
Me : Pure Joy, good friends took over all these...
FW : Good. Then what now?
Me : I think I am stuck and again in the same old cycle..
FW : Do you love the place you stay right now?
Me : Yes...
FW : (Smiles)... You have the answer.
Me : You mean, only when you have that love and respect for people, whoever/whatever/however they are, only then you can come out of the loop...
FW : Yes and if you want to progress faster, this is the only mantra. Life always moves on with something or the other. Now, you do know how to and you will... Cheers!

It's been months being active here. With a mobile in hand, couldn't spend much time writing up and the life within me did divert me. What to say, it was with many twists... Now, things did get far better. Enjoying the phase.. But somewhere, am getting more attached towards everything in life. Getting inside the loop. At the same time, knowing stuff and not able to do anything is sort of not Me. Need to work on it.

" Do not suffer through chasing after the world and its ways, but attain peace by running along the straight path to the Heart. " - Ramana Maharshi

Yes, it's true. Chasing can only create confusions and get you more tired of everything in the world. There is never a full stop. It's all about beliefs and it's mismatch. Be it out of fear, ego or any... pressurizing others always happens. But how can one come out of all this gracefully? Meditation... Yes, that does help. You may find solutions but along with that one needs to 'Be Only In The Present'.

Did stop everything that I had learnt and that's the reason for this post.. :)
Recently started Isha Kriya... Wishing that it would help me in every way and yes progress must happen.

Me : What is the meaning of life?
Mind : Nothing.. It's false.. (answer was momentary)
Me : Was asking the same question again and again until an answer came from Within.. Even was thinking of Sri Ramana Maharshi a lot that moment.. Was desperate.
From Within : "Life is a drama, play it.."
Me : This answer kept echoing and slowly it drew me to sleep..

Later, the meaning was so naturally flowing like the calm sea waves..
"Life is like a drama. Act in it but never be in it. Once you be in it, you can never enjoy life the way it is as you get stuck with it. So a distance must be maintained."
And then, I remembered Isha Kriya.. It's about that distance from body and mind. Need to practice regularly. Every answer about attachment, involvement lies here. How much ever you know does not matter.. What matters is only when a conscious effort is made.

Now I can relate this to the other stuff that was ringing in me a month back.. It's about the Sun and the Moon.
Sun : Live totally and intensely... :)
Moon : It always has a smile, be it any moment, even when it's nearing to New Moon - a point to be noted.. At the time of death, can anyone have a smile? But here, there is a possibility only when that distance is maintained.. Got my answer on how can one be joyful all the time after a month.. Thanks to the SELF.

Recited few poems of  Yogi Vemana in my childhood. Actually had to, as there was no other option left... Today if you ask, I enjoy even the thought of it... :)

Uppu kappurambu nokka polika nundu
Chooda chooda ruchulu jaada veru
Purushulandu punya purushulu veraya
Viswadhaabhiraama, Vinura Vema

Salt and camphor look similar, 
but closer observation shows their taste is different
Among men, virtuous people stand apart
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!

Medi pandu chooda melimaiyundu
Potta vippi chooda purugulundu
Pirikivani madibinkamilagura
Viswadhaabhiraama, Vinura Vema

Medi, a fruit, looks gorgeous externally,
but when we rip it, we find worms within.
In a similar manner, a coward appears brave outside, but in reality he is not.
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!

Aathmashudhdhi leni yaachaaramadhiyela?
Bhaandashudhdhi leni paakamela?
Chiththashudhdhi leni shivapoojalelaraa?
Viswadhaabhiraama, Vinura Vema

What is the purpose of custom sans inner purity?
What is the purpose of cooking sans cleanliness of vessels?
What is the purpose of worship of Shiva sans purity of mind?
Beloved of the Bounteous, Vema, listen!

Want to pen down the information gathered 3 and a half years ago, as it is. Though it(html table) means nothing to me at present, at that point it was something big to know. Was super excited, totally child like. It's all about the 7 Chakras in our energy system. Those recent few visits to the temple also made me feel some connection between Sri Chakram and the Chakras. Only after Isha(2 years ago), understood what it is.

Now let's know what Ida, Pingala and Sushumna are. They are the nadis in which this life-energy flows.
Ida - Left side, Moon, Feminine
Pingala - Right side, Sun, Masculine
Sushumna - Middle and most important (ex., when both our nostrils are functioning together (breathing in and out together), it is Sushumna playing its role).

Pingala / Surya Nadi(Right side) Ida / Chandra Nadi(Left side)
Muladhara Bone strengthen Mental tensions dooram chesthundi
Svadhisthana Kovvuni thayaru chesthundi Stability(wavering ni dooram chesthundi)
Manipura Muscle strength Increases memory power
Anahata Blood purification Prema vruddhi, aapyaayatha
Vishuddha Charmaanni thayaaru chesthundi Increases creativity, art, uhaa sakthi, ...
Ajna Moolugu(metthani padaardham) thayaaru chesthundi Concentration tho kudina pariseelanaasakthini isthundi

Ee 6 chakras, body lo unnatuvanti vaatini jaagrutham chesthaayi.

Coming to Sri Chakram --> Sivayorvapuhu [Iddari Sareeramu (Ardhanaarishvara)]
Ajna : The 3rd eye of Shiva is called Sva-netra. Becoming Sada Shiva, the eternal one, Shiva is no longer separate from Shakthi as a separate male entity and is the granter of knowledge. This knowledge brings the breath(prana) and the mind under control of Ardhanaarishvara.

Sahasrara : It is also called Brahma-randhra. Not much info about this yet... Wish I be with it soon.. :)

Understood what is me and what is not me. This me always wants to be joyful. Thanks to the not me to make me realize this.

If there is light, there is light. If there is darkness, there is darkness. Accept and move on joyfully with peace.

At times, how tough situations are.. Everything looks so simple but some friction exists within. Accepting the situation must be immediate to take a spontaneous decision. Will definitely come out very soon joyfully with your grace Sadhguru..

Privacy - What does it really mean?
I understand the more the importance given, the more the time it takes to come out. At times, you will feel shattered. It creates a state of shock where nothing becomes important. In this mode, you might even move away. This is where being in silence with patience helps.On funny note, one can observe breath in state of shock. :)
