the week that was

From picture to pilgrimage to discourse by Swami Sukhabodananda on Gita ,it was Govinda all the way.And it was swift as well be it the movie or darshan at Tirumala.May be u can say the difference is that in the earlier Perumal shuttles from here to there whereas in the latter we ran the race. But i should say there was huge difference between screams of Govinda in the 'Q' and ecstatic chants of Govinda by Shri. O.S.Arun at the discourse.

for the benefit of our young friends and why for that matter also to test my memory skills,i try out a recap of the Gita lecture by Corporate guru Swami Sukhabhodananda .He calls mind a liar,deceiver what not.. 'cause it does all the damage in interpreting fact differently.He highlighted the need of intellect to sift the real from the interpretations the mind has to offer. He segregates people in to 3 types-those who live in past,those who always keep planning for future n those who are lost in the present moment. It is necessary to obtain a right mix of the 3-that is.. use past experience , to strategise for future while focus should be on present.It is necessary for the mind to be present to the 'present'(live the present with awareness?) and be conscious of it always.

So much for the previous week. This week has begun with a visit to srikalahasti and Gita lecture by Smt.Sunandaji .
