Yes+

It has been 3 months and finally i am back after i wrote my first blog :) ...My situation and state of mind was on a big time low and i had to bring some change on that.As we all know happy times and sad times are complimentary the bad phase had to wave off someday,but had to fight for it.There have been some improvements which i would want to note, Finally i have started reading and Kahlil Gibran's "THE PROPHET" was a treat to read and now i am going over works of Kahlil gibran.Ialso started with 15mins of jogging and playing pool to keep myself going toward happiness.

I had heard of something called as art of living in my childhood during school days and it become alive in my 22nd year, I again heard it and this time i was interested about what exactly it is??My previous view was it is for old people and ill people,I also had some vague idea that its about god.

So one fine day i opened my lazy eyes and made an attempt to check out the course conducted in Pune in Aug and to my hard luck it was all shut due to swine flue.There was no other option but to wait.I continued with my daily routine and got some news from a friend by mid sep that it has resumed :).I was happy with no reason and why i dont know as i still didn't knew what was it all about.I checked the artofliving.pune site and checked the contact details, called up immediately and checked out paid the money where the AOL had its cash collecting center.I paid the money the same day i got to know about the YES+ course which was designed for youth.I was all set for the course on Tuesday and i took permission from my manager to work for less hours and she agreed to it(I guess it helped as she was also from AOL).


I was sleeping as usual at 10 am on tuesday when the course was to commence and to my surprise i get a call from a person from AOL and found that i am chucked out from the course as they had scarcity of place as they had to change the venue :( .I had in my mind that i had to go this time before its late and something in me told Darshan you are going come what so ever happens.I just sat and thought whatever contact i had from AOL and called them up to help me out and somehow make it possible for me to go.I still dont know why i did this way and why i was so eager to go.I had got calls from various people in 2hrs and finally 1pm it was final that i am in.I was all set now

The story after going into the AOL class is just too difficult to describe but in a nut shell it was the best time in my life.I was i guess amongst the older group in the class but when we were out of the class all people were thrown back to age zero!The whole experience is just above and out of this world and has to be felt by the person to know what it is?.We were lucky to get bau and Dinesh on video conference and they made the class ROCK!I would someday put those experiences in words so that i can capture it somewhere for future.

Calling it off for today.Thanks Amit bhaiya, himanshu, bawandinesh and everybody who made it possible.It has changed my life and the way i look at things in 10days:).
