the other topics u wud know are movies and food...
so today lets talk about another topic...which i do mention...but rarer than most others...meditation...
but before that u must understand the journeys of the person writing this post...of travels across the country...of self inflicted cigarette burns on the arm...of romantic love poems...of playing chess in lunch breaks...of sleeping on the floor of the train coach, not because he didnt have a ticket...but because he wanted to have the experience...of smoke and alcohol...of five years of abstinence...of a vow of chastity...of unbound sex...of broken hearts...of scientific phenomenon...of years of insomnia...of psychiatrists...of osho ashram...of treks in the pune hills (cursing shivaji :P )...of complex love stories...of playing wid kids...of software code...of cups of coffee...of jive lessons...of high heels...of flowing rivers...of sadhus...of greed...of thieves...or rude people...of random friends...
and then when u carry all the baggage of this knowledge and u sit down in medidation...all your thoughts come rushing to u...of rights and wrongs...of sadness and happiness...of injustice done to u by life and people...of injustice done by u to ohers...but u just keep sitting...letting the thoughts come and play but not getting entangled in them...being the observer
...distancing yourself from those thoughts...and slowly those thoughts die away...and silence starts coming to u...and the moment it starts coming to u...ure mind tries to start talking again...but then u remind ureself to not talk...and there are no more words...no more thoughts...and u let silence over take u...till it grows so strong that u can't take the power of silence of anymore and u open ure eyes...and this is where i break off the story...coz this is as far as i've gone...
i can tell u what i've heard of what lies beyond this...but that is somebody else's experience...and coming from me those words will be hollow...so i let it be...for u to be your own mystique wanderer...

phew..that was some life story and some inspiration.. i hv experienced that too...when at times i close my eyes to meditate that thoughts of a lot of things from a haunting past come rushing in.. i didnt wanna have a one-on-one with my past again and again...so i left meditation at just that.. your words inspire me to trust myself with the mystical wandering..thank you for writing this..
that happens when u hv so many thoughts bottled up in u...its best to hv a open and free spirit...then meditation will be easier..cos there r no locked thoughts then :)
Keshi.
