[esatsang] Esatsang digest for Dec 13 2009

You don't have to be goody-goody in the world. Act in the world with
intelligence. Intelligence---but with the heart and with this understanding
that the Divine is present even in the worst possible situation.

Higher states of consciousness
H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Deccan Herald, 14th December, 2009

We lead life through three states of consciousness - waking, dreaming
and sleeping.

In the waking state of consciousness, we experience the world through
the five senses. We seek elevation and joy from these senses. If any
one of the senses is missing, the entire dimension of that sense is
lost. One who can't hear is bereft of the whole arena of sound.
Similarly, he who can't see is deprived of all the beautiful sights
and colors. So the sense is more important and much bigger than the
object of the sense.

Subject:Part II at Powai


Guruji says:

"All sensory pleasures in the world are like wrapping paper; true bliss is the
present inside. Divine Love is the present, yet we are holding on to the paper
believing we have already enjoyed the gift. It is like putting the chocolate
inside your mouth with the paper still on. A little chocolate may seep into
your mouth, but the wrapper causes discomfort.

Unwrap the present. The whole world is there for you to enjoy. The wise know
how to enjoy the gift inside, while the ignorant get stuck with the paper."

Come Unwrap yourself, Enjoy the gift that is YOU in the Part-2 course at lush
green Hiranandani Gardens in Powai at the SM Shetty School auditorium. Cool
Air-conditioned comfortable Hall, satvic food, very senior teacher Sangeeta
didi all make a perfect combination to make an experience worth looking forward
to.

Subject: Part II - Advanced Meditation Course at Courtrallam with Shri.Arunji.

Welcome to Courtrallam a place to wander under the shadow of Sal trees, where
the breeze carries the scent of wild flowers, where the silence is broken only
by the chirping of birds and the rustling leaves. Just take a nature walk
through the breathtaking locales and enjoy the serenity of nature. It is
certainly the place to get away from the daily mundane life and rediscover
peace and tranquillity.

The picturesque surroundings with the backdrops of cloud capped spurs of the
Western Ghats lend an unusual charm to the Courtallam waterfalls. Water pours
down torrentially with varying velocity and force and the scene at the
waterfalls is rapturous. Mother Nature is so enchanting and offers an ideal
retreat to relax and enjoy its beauty. If you take bath at Courtallam Water
Falls you would not get sneezing or cold as the water is said to possess
medicinal qualities of the herbal plants grown in this mountain. Those
suffering from rheumatic joints, chronic headache, and nerve disorder get cured
by a prolonged stay at Courtallam.

A Part II Course (Advanced Meditation Course) is happening in Courtallam. It is
happening during the dawn of the New Year 2010. Enjoy Shri Arunji's extended
Satsang and knowledge session on 31st December 2009. Bring your children also
for they can enjoy Art Excel Course during the period.

Let us dive deep into genuine relaxation and greet each other at 12.01am on 1st
Jan 2010 in the presence of Shri. Arunji. This is part of our Family Package
(AMC for parents and ART - Excel for children)

Begin the New Year by diving deep in Poojya Gurudev's Gyan Ganga, get
drenched in the rain of Shri. Arunji's Thean Amudham Bhajans and relax the
body at the Courtallam waterfalls. Feel refreshed rejuvenated and nourish your
body mind and soul.
