What is a cat
Cats are multidimensional beings! Really! They are part here and part in the other universe! ( Like the mice from Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy! ) Trickster spirits, beings here to help us realise what this universe is all about. Cats are Monkey King like beings, powerful, naughty, reluctantly helpful, mostly dont give a shit beings :-)

Why do shrooms?
Psychedelics can be used for
Level 1- entertainment, for tripping , for getting cool experiences
Level 2 - They can be used to solve your mental problems
Level 3 - Use to advance spiritually.
I want to use for level 3:
My intentions
I want to open my mind
I want to expand my mind
Who am I?
What is this universe?
What is behind this veil?
Who or What is Sonu?
What can I do to for the highest good of everyone, every being?
I want to be accepting and kind
I want to be less judgemental
Why to write this down? Because intentions become unclear after interacting with the world, Other people have different goals and that will influence you. And when thing get difficult the question Why the fuck did I ever do this comes to mind! LOL! At that time I need to remember my intentions.
Also my mind is full of judgement against intoxicants be it alcohol or Ayahuasca and I needed this justification for my mind to stop feeling guilty and clear up.
I think it was not judgement towards people who are doing this for level 1, It was fear of judgement by society. That fear is subtle and so deeply instilled in us its crazy.

Quote from Tibetan book of living and dying
Rest in natural great peace
This exhausted mind
Beaten helpless by karma and neurotic thought
Like the relentless fury of the pounding waves
In the infinite ocean of samsara

my past lives
In my last life I was a colonial british living in India, born 1900s and lived in India 1920s-1940s. Lived in those colonial buildings I love so much, in Dehradoon? may be even until 1970s when I died? lived in England too, on the moors, enjoying the rare sunny winter days, climbing oaks. Countryside, middleclass family.
I have lived in China before and offcourse tibet, ( thats why I like all those Chinese artists and Jackie Chan :-P ) I have done vipassana before. and offcourse India. Himalayas. More lifetimes as Buddhist than Hindu, so more in South east Asia than India, the pull of the culture says it, I must have been Shinto too, and a Witch in UK. I love the witch lore. In Europe, the only connection is to UK, none of the other countries, Same with the Americans - no connection either to the Native Americans or the recent USA/Canada. Even tho the native American spiritual side is fascinating and I was drawn to Aya.
Considering we all came from Africa must have had a few lifetimes there but they must be long time ago, as I dont feel connected, even tho I love so much, the music, the rhythm, the language, the dance.
Middleeast, sufi yes, I have been there and done that. The music and the culture, sufiness, definitely in the last 1000 years I have been born in the middle east.
ps: This is all pure speculation and fun, please don't report me to the psych police :D :P

Sometime back I wrote this.
"I find myself dismissing meditations on objects,dieties,mantras and mandalas as lower level to vipassana which in my opinion is the ultimate. I found myself looking at a Mahayana buddist book and thinking, this chantings and focusing on objects is creating more patterns in our brain, this is not what buddha taught."
http://mystic-babe.blogspot.co.uk/2016/12/am-i-getting-intolerant.html
Sure ways of self realisation - this amazing book explains how all types of meditations work.
In one way it is true that the other ways of meditation create more mental patterns, but the other techniques will help us get to the state where we are able to do vipassana properly faster.
He says Vipassana is like walking towards enlightenment, where as tibetan buddhism(i.e tantra yoga) is going by rocket. (but then who id in a hurry? for some like me we need to understand how everything works, more than be enlightened :-)) also what u choose is based on your personality, for some vipassana is itself rocket fuel like for my cousin and Yuval Noah Harrari )
So my intolerance was short lived (atleast towards other meditation styles, not towards monothiest religions )
The first step in any meditation is controlling the monkey mind, Vipassana uses noticing the breath to achieve this, however this can be achieved by focusing on any object - a word - chanting, an image - mandala, ishta devata, etc. Mandalas and mantras are like easter eggs which work on our subconscious mind.
Rishis of ancient India knew how to programme our mind with sounds and symbols. These tools will be there with us for a while on the journey, Ultimately like vipassana says we have to break thru these patterns as well to reach enlightenment.

The best thing about Deeps is that she picks up on ideas from people, books, FB posts, web and just does it!
EFT, Acting classes, lumosity, Faery Oracles... Ayahuasca ;-).. Lovely Deeps! too cool :)
Its as if my subconscious is alert for tips and suggestions to cool things. ( I cant write "I m" I m not consciously alert, its as if there is a dear friend inside who is so cool ;-), beautiful mind eh? ;-) Its not "I" Its "my mind" or "Deeps" or something who is cool :D The "I" feel of it is less. Not like auto writing where its completely "them" doing it, This has a bit of ownership but not complete , it "my" mind but not "me" but not "them" either! hehe! I know I lost u there.. but thats how it is! )
Me just seems to grab some ideas and does them, while the people who suggested the ideas are not doing it! Its as if these people were only messengers for me and those ideas were meant for me and not for them at all. and some ideas resonate after ages, after a few years even! :) its all funny, strange, mystic and cool!
may be I m being messenger to other people and not knowing it :) ( actually did happen, I gave a book to this girl, who looked at the bibliography of that book and picked up some real cool books, I had never bothered to look at the bibliography of that book :) As if I was a link in her development or something )
I love my subconscious or whatever is inside me.. its a sweet lil thing :) and so much fun too! :)

Free Myself
Free free free!
How do I break free?
I have heard this many times "the only person who is limiting u is u.."
Everything seems to be converging on that.. Do we have to learn acting/drawing/singing??? no! we just have to allow ourselves to do it.
Its shocking! how we stop ourselves from being good and wonderful by limiting ourselves with too much conscious control ,our brain unfortunately is designed that way.
These are two books which talk about this freeing ourselves but in a scientific way. In brain language. off-course all the spiritual books talk about this all the time, its the same thing but sounds different. Thats what I want to prove - that what spiritual books are talking bout and what these books say, is the same thing.
The books call this, letting the right brain do the job, while making the usually dominant left brain, shut up.
from wiki
Edwards's method of drawing and teaching was revolutionary when she published it in 1979. It received an immediate positive response, and is now widely accepted by artists, teachers, and others around the world. Underlying the method is the notion that the brain has two ways of perceiving and processing reality — one verbal and analytic, the other visual and perceptual. Edwards' method advocates suppressing the former in favor of the latter. It focuses on disregarding preconceived notions of what the drawn object should look like, and on individually "seeing" edges or lines, spaces, relationships, and lights and shadows, later combining them and seeing them as a whole, or gestalt.[3]
I think right/left brain is a bit of a simplistic divide( wiki says this too). I like the ego/sub-super-conscious divide. however u look at it, shutting out the critical/ controlling part of the brain is the key. Doesn't this sound exactly like meditation?
J Krishnamurthy just says let go of words, dont associate words with things, u will free yourself. Why? how? Its so hard to understand. Betty Edwards finally made me understand why that is. When u use words to denote something, the left brain makes a symbol out of it. If I try to draw an eye, I always draw the eye symbol that I made when I was 10. not the real eye I am seeing. When I just draw lines and shapes without identifying it as eye, I draw very accurate drawings.
Same with life situations, JK says u dont see the present u an approximation for that situation in the past and u react in the same way. It is not bad, but thats not exactly reality, is it? :) Its good to be conscious that we are doing that.
When I was trying to learn juggling, if I just saw the person doing it and copied it, I was able to do but as soon as I started thinking how, I lost it.
( I wonder how some people can think about how to do physical stuff and still do it well. my bro and husband are really good at analyzing what they are physically doing and still do it very well. They may be better communication between left/right brain, I think their left brain delegates to right when they play, just like mine delegates to right when I draw )
Art, sports, meditation, healing, astral sight obviously need this but surprisingly even math, coding, minesweeper ( the so called left brain activities) also can be better when we let go, even writing...Its not left/right brain but its using some higher faculty in brain. getting into the zone more like.
The basic requirement of actually doing something and enjoying it seems to be to surrender. to trust ourselves to do it and let go.
To do our job and genuinely not care bout the result. Is it this they are talking about? Must be, otherwise its just drudgery.
As of now, getting into zone happens involuntarily, those books tell me to notice the difference between not being in the zone and being in the zone and slowly u will be able to go in and out of the zone voluntarily. I did a meditation once, in which the lady was very insistent about noticing the state of consciousness, how trance is different from full awake state. So u can go into meditative state easily when u want.
I love how all this converges.
I know all this but why Am I not free? Left brain is so dominant! Switching on the "zone" is recursive, to get into the zone we shouldnt try but let go! and be in the Zone!!! Argh!!!!!!
== from here on its for myself, I seem to need more convincing ==
I take a huge white paper and try to make random marks on it, Its so hard. I am so inhibited. Its hard to mess up a page. :) making bold strokes is hard, I always keep an eraser close. I make a small drawing in one corner. Most of the new comers in the drawing class drew small pictures :) it takes practice to let go. once I let go, I see myself making bold strong marks in color, over writing on what is already there, not bothering to correct. things come out awesome. :) ( May be I wouldnt call it awesome at all in critical mode :) )
This BTW is not extrovert introvert thing, It looks like it is a problem with external boldness but it isnt. difference between being free and being bold is same as between acceptance of pain and denial of pain. Being bold is ploughing thru inhibitions and being free is when these inhibitions are not there at all. May be extroverts are more free... i dono.
(its not just boldness, hesitation about making marks of paper may be about our parents telling us not to waste, govt telling us not to waste paper, conservation mentality, why to use new when I can use old for practice mentality, not being confident that I will make a good drawing, all sorts of things )
Acting class
I m so awkward and not good at acting, and self conscious and embarrassed and struggling and the rest of the class is like this too. Half way thru the class ,I realise I m pretending that the chair is a toilet seat and I m smuggling it thru immigration, I am whispering and voice modulating and winking and everything and having so much fun. We are all doing so well too.. We just shut down some part of us which said we cant do it, which asks what people will think and makes us feel selfconscious and one hell of a time we had :)
Cooking
Cook is hard, I m not a good cook, I used to believe that. I m actually a wonderful wonderful cook. Thats my latest gift ( thank u G ;). because I allowed myself to be it. I allowed myself to be gifted, Thats it. It is allright to make mistakes, Trust that I will do well. no measurements, no recipes. Have a picture of what taste we want at the end and I just know what to put and what will taste good. ( most times.) When I want to recreate the same and use my brain and start thinking, Its horrible :) even simple food dont have that magic anymore.
sometimes we let other people tell us, we are not good . I feel only when we think ourselves that we cant do well, we are not good. only then we believe when other people tell us we are not good, so it starts in us( mostly)
Bowling
every ball was gutter ball, after throwing 4 balls into gutter, I asked them to raise the side railings so the ball wont go into gutter at all. kids mode :-( yeah I was just horrible,
but once the railings were raised, I never once touched them!???! WT... Its like fear of being horrible makes me really horrible. the more I think I should do well, the worse I become, the more I think about just having fun, things go well.
How do I break free?

- Inner game of tennis

somethings in our lives are just links, they come in so that they can point us to something else..
there may sometimes be a chain of links to get us from A to B. Links or Steps. life works in mysterious ways :) nothing is accidental
when u look for somethng u need to have patience and trust... when u are holding a link dont dismiss it

Thank you subconscious for waking me up in the middle of the night just in time for the meditation!!
Seriously!! I love you!!! our( my :P) subconscious is so so so powerful, It has put a reminder for July 2nd 7 pm pacific time and woken me up - corresponding GMT summer time!! - It has done this all some 2 weeks ago. Even tho all this had totally escaped my conscious mind, subconscious woke me!! I love it.
This is not the routine/habit thing, this is something else! :D way cooler!
God!!! If we are aligned with our subconscious mind, We can just live life like a breeze - like magic... way too cool. , we dont need drudgery of will power..which is always works with resistance.
Hope humanity( aka me ;-)) will learn to harness the power of subconscious.. soon :)

Symbols
Mystical speak - for example aura/energy bodies Chakra , These concepts are actually tools or symbols to help us understand a concept, not exactly to be taken literally?
Like a Sine wave for example,
Its hard to remember that this is *not* the sine wave, This is a symbol which helps us understand what a sine wave is...Its so easy to confuse a model with the real thing..
The mystical concepts, most of us take it literally - some find it so silly that they scoff at it and other believe blindly. but actually what these mystical concepts are - are like say a block diagram of our software, When a lay man looks at Set top box architecture diagram , they may expect these little boxes - drivers/middleware/application to be found when he breaks open a box. We are being this layman when we expect the astral body/mental body etc to be found surrounding our body? offcourse!
God/Soul/Prana everything, What ever is said of it.. is symbolic, we will know what it all is.. only when we experience it.
You know what words are ?
"They are an agreement between the speaker and the listener. With out this agreement the words dont have any meaning. each sound has a meaning in ur head and the meaning in my head and when we hear a sound, we do a look up to its meaning and it becomes word " - from Seth Speaks.

Soul Mates
Caught you attention now ! Din I? :D
hehe!
yeah Soul Mates!
The unexplained affinity,warmth,tenderness, peace, the gentle pull, feel of coming home when u are with a person...or unbearable attraction and passion, heady feeling, something u cannot shake off no matter what...like being sucked in a vortex.. all at the first glance! Soul mate? :)
A more politically correct or rather less alarming term is being used these days "soul connected" because u can feel this connections with anyone - parents, brothers, sisters,friends - u can have a strong connection but have no romantic interest, u may have strong connection and romantic interest but u may be already commited ;-) so soul connected ;-)
How does it all fall into place Mystically..
God made all souls in pairs, separated them( I should have said "us" LOL!obviously I dont buy this :) and threw them to earth...we are all basically halfs of a whole and must keep searching and find that one person who completes us! This is the hollywood version of the story.
Another theory is that soul mates are souls with whom u have spent many lifes, who are ur lovers across life times.. but There can be multiple soul mates.. souls dont have gender nor do they have any taboo... these souls have had both romantic and non romantic relationship with u in the past lives.. but close relationships.. so u feel the affinity and closeness with them... you know each other too well...for too long...
Another theory is that if you from the same soul group - imagine there is big higher soul which splits into multiple souls which in turn split and so on.. like branches of a tree.. if u are 2 branches shot out of same trunk u are soul mates..u are literally connected via the trunk..
Master Co from pranic healing had an interesting take on the soul mates funda.. according to him there are two kinds of soul mates, One kind is the regular soul mate with whom u have had romantic relationships in the past life, who are kind of connected to you in the soul hierarchy and who compliment you, When u see these people ur heart will go mmmmmmm ...
Another type are those that have lessons for you!! :D you will be intensely attracted to people who will teach u lessons in life :-) that means that life with these "soul mates" will definitely be challenging. Suppose ur soul had a purpose that it will learn anger management in this life time. These soul mates will do exactly that, push ur anger buttons and push u to the limits so that u learn!!. so beware of love at first sight ;-) Soul mates can also be people with whom u have unfinished business ( usually actually always unpleasant) The longer the unfinished business lasts the closer the souls are bought to sort out their issues and messes.. If two people were part of a feud in one life time and developed a lot of hatred with each other and died like that, next life they are probably brought together as friends so that they de-solve the hatred and move on, but instead if they just build on hate, then they are brought together as husband wife or parent child, if u still dont mend ur business - conjoined twins :D So if u dont like someone, better to not have any hatred/anger towards them if not they will return as soul-mates :D
hehe!

Another type are those that have lessons for you!! :D you will be intensely attracted to people who will teach u lessons in life :-) that means that life with these "soul mates" will definitely be challenging. Suppose ur soul had a purpose that it will learn anger management in this life time. These soul mates will do exactly that, push ur anger buttons and push u to the limits so that u learn!!. so beware of love at first sight ;-) Soul mates can also be people with whom u have unfinished business ( usually actually always unpleasant) The longer the unfinished business lasts the closer the souls are bought to sort out their issues and messes.. If two people were part of a feud in one life time and developed a lot of hatred with each other and died like that, next life they are probably brought together as friends so that they de-solve the hatred and move on, but instead if they just build on hate, then they are brought together as husband wife or parent child, if u still dont mend ur business - conjoined twins :D So if u dont like someone, better to not have any hatred/anger towards them if not they will return as soul-mates :D
Techniques
1) Glass wall technique... may be this was Dream gyan or may be I read it somewhere in a slightly different way (NLP stuff?) and it was summarised like this... Its a nice way to remember that all the worlds drama is happening inside our head and actual reality is quite fine!..I saw this more as a cartoon video than in words...
I was angry and upset with someone ...The person was in front of me, I drew big bold crosses on him with a dark red felt pen... then a line connecting this to my brain and a drew some mess there.... means - this person made my head mess up.
Then I moved to the side a bit, I saw that all this scribbling and crosses were on a glass wall in front of me and not on that person at all...that person was fine! I quickly erased off the crosses and then the line and then the mess in my head!! I felt great after this!? no anger! cool or what? :)
2) Using the energy from the emotions technique - may be this helps me disassociate with my emotions ...atleast it helps dissipate them..I dono where this came from.. may be I read this somewhere as well?! May be Louise hay? .. one of those free books on my Kindle I think . Its similar to some exercises and that book by a psychologist has similar meditations...
When we feel intense emotions like sadness or pain or anger, we can use the strength of those emotions to do something else constructive..Sometimes I remember to do this when I feel strong emotions.
Sometimes feel intensely sad but I dono why, I observe the pain... I try to feel that pain as physical sensation rather than emotion then I imagine(?) that it is actually just energy and then turn it into light(proper flash light) and shine it inside my head - hopefully I will be able to see what it is that is causing the pain.. till today I haven't seen any reason for the pain :) but the sadness dissipates.. I am thinking it is working slowly may be once I shine enough light it will show me the actual reason?
If I know the reason then even better, for example I feel really sad remembering my cats and I cant seem to get over it.. turn the saddness into love( isnt it actually love in the first place?) then send it out from my heart to my cats, to all cats or to just all people connected to me ...I feel better. I imagine proper connections like bright wires of light going out of my heart taking love in them
May be I feel lonely - then I use the sadness to break the walls I have built around my heart so that I can reach out to people ... etc..etc ... :) I am very creative with the imagination, I sometimes imagine that energy as a flood breaking the walls of a dam, or Like a fist punching off a brick wall.. I imagine the flash light shining in the deep mines/tunnels in my brain looking for stuff which I may have repressed... I imagine myself turning and looking at the pain and asking who are you...why are u making me sad..
yeah all this is too personal but what the heck, this blog is for personal purpose anyway.

Affirmations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmations_(New_Age)
From Wiki -This is related to mind over matter, This is one course of action to change matter with the mind.
Affirmations in New Thought and New Age terminology refers primarily to the practice of positive[clarification needed] thinking—fostering a belief that "a positive mental attitude supported by affirmations will achieve success in anything."[1] More specifically an affirmation is a carefully formatted statement that should be repeated to one's self and written down frequently. For an affirmation to be effective, it needs to be present tense, positive, personal and specific.[2]

synchronocity 3
Few weeks back, walking home, some how sad bout something ...some kids has thrown some flowers on the street, felt sad (when we are sad we feel more sad for others ;-) ) and picked up one, very pretty... I can almost see a lil fairy sitting on that flower :) too much miyazaki :) fairy looks like Kodama spirit in a tutu :D as if someone put it there to cheer me up! :) I took it home and put it on the altar.
. 
Very pretty rose like flowers... camellia ...after that day I have looked for those flowers again,, always found them in the plants not on the street..I din pluck flowers - some stupid value. (flowers are so attractive and so plenty, they beg to be picked actually. If u pick one and touch 3, u are pollinating, plants will love that more than if u just stay away.. but still somehow we "shouldnt pick flowers!" Grrr)
Today also feeling somehow low...walking back home...there is a canal on the way. I notice there is a canal road dono where it goes..should I take it? took it anyway. Started walking .. soon (not soon enough :P) I realise it's a bit stupid to do this...Sun has almost set.. its getting dark fast and there are no lights on that road :D there is no way out either. one side canal another side fence :D absolutely no one else on the road...how far before some exit!!??? 5 more mins.. 10 mins.. no exit!! mummy!! and now its long way back!!! :) .. then a bridge ..on the other side.. a hole in the fence!! Great! but now I am in a huge huge football field ..empty.. also fenced! and where is the bloody entrance( exit actually )? Now it is almost dark. I can already see Venus and Jupiter?! hello there :P!! Aaaaaaa :D only I can get into a fix like this, in the city!! hehe! luckliy some car tracks- followed - running ! I m afraid of the dark!! :) finally I m out! civilization! Sigh!!!!
and There a beautiful house -garden-same flower tree-same flowers all torn down and all over the street!!! :) :-) as if strewn there just for me!! a gift?!! This time I pick up two :) It 's as if I was led through that sucha weird route to that particular place just so that I could pick those flowers up and cheer myself up ( Actually?! what sad? can anyone be sad and scared at the same time? no!!!! :-))
co-incidence :) but so longwinded and so sweet! :)

Mantras
(this is kinda random post)
Om mani padme hum - from tibetan incantatons mp3 from friend
Om Thrembakam yajamahe - this one just came to me? may be when I searched for Om joom, I found that, that was maha mrytuyunjaya mantra but full form was this one, This was also chanted at the end of yoga class, but I never got it then
Om joom saha maam palay palay saha joom om -astrologer, He says anger will come down, but from personal experience I think this is for good health.
Om namah shivaya Om - childhood one :) My parents ploy to keep kids quite during power cut, Do Tapas like Druva they used to say and I will get a vara :D haha! but Druva must have worshiped Vishnu...my parents told me Om namah shivaya.. I say this when I am scared of ghosts also, funny My brother says Jai Bajarang bali :)
So ham - pranic healing. Ham-sa - It is the opposite of so hum, supposedly milder version.
Om bhur bhuvasvaha - most popular mantra :) These days it is played everywhere. 1998 - A friend was offended that this mantra was chanted in a movie( Stupid movie Mohobatein), Apparently it should nt be chanted by women, lower class people, actually anyone except some initiated bramhin male :) and how things have changed since then.. heart warming.. Thanks to Vivekananda and Theosophical soceity and all those movements which started about 150 years ago...and most recently internet and western interest in these things... foreign influence breaks bonds..
Om namo parabhraman om - pranic healing
Om purnamidam - I heard this in the closing of yoga class and loved it. I like the shanti mantra too..( from Vedas, kind of non religious)

Karagre vasate lakshmi.. Home. but these 3 never entered my thick head :D
Yakundendu tushara hara - school prayer. I din like this, it used to fill my heart with dread :( I guess I din like that school at all... Our Florence English school suited me much better. Our father in heaven :) Lords prayer.. apparently even that is a a very powerful mystic symbolism...
Wow! This post started off as something mystic.. but This is more like a nostalgia trip !!! :-)
Mantras are good, I wanted to find a mantra for each occasion but it turns out.. my uncle and dad and my family have taught me so many little things in my childhood. I feel misty eyed.. I love you uncle doctor bappa! he has touched our lives in so many ways... dad and uncle .. little tihngs they taugt us.
I remember I used to resent learning these as I got slightly older.. I used to run away and ignore.. :) but now when I read these I feel so good.. not about the mantra but about the care they took and the love that was behind all this :)
This makes me think of the comedian Dara O brien who says he is ethinic catholic even tho he is atheist.
exactly my sentiments.. I am ethinic hindu.. hindu culture is in me but I am not a religious hindu..I have lot of anger and hatred for some aspect of Hinduism but it is still in me.
awesome, I ran into these while looking for mantras..!Written by Ravana one of them is :)

New found Om tare tuttare ture Svaha! Green Tara Mantra, chanted in chinese style. I loved this one too
http://www.greenmesg.org/mantras_slokas.php#Ganesha
This post is no way complete...I started out to research but now just emotional..lost the will to research..
To do
1) what really is the power of mantras?
2) What are Beeja mantra's?
When we were kids we used to say Hram Hreem Hrooom... pretending to mantravaadi's ( bad black magic people;) but this is chanted along with Surya Namaskara for additional benifit.
I have read a lot about beeja mantras - seed mantra! ? but I havent really figured what they are! they make the normal mantra more potent, but hram hreem are just chanted by themselves too? Om Btw is the Ultimate beeja mantra I suppose?
3) Wama mantras? ;-) Are there any?
4) other Religion mantras? Chants are very common - Sufi - Dama Dum Mast Khalandar! Tora - is all about chanting right?
ps: I would love to see one post by my friend M about such things, that would be real technical/scientific and real vedic perspective on all this... it would be awesome.

this and that
reading so many books , gettng so many answers.. its wonderful.
I have to admit that what the spritual books say is right. u get the right books and u are able to read them only when the time is right.
Its the sequence.. if I had read the books out of sequence I wouldnt have got it.. It somehow happens that u end up reading them in sequence.
U may try and try but u will succedded at the right time ..but u have to try.. u know trying and making up ur mind that u will do something is sometimes enough to trigger off things and then they happen but u have to have patience.
I used to feel this even when I was very young.. that I always get what I want but not when I want it. It used happen uncannyly :) I wanted something obsessively badly, I wouldnt get it, then after I forgot about it, after an year or so, there it would be :) patience. so :)
Nothing happens by chance, everything happens for a reason.. I believe in synchronocity...
There is talk in the new age circles that something on earth has changed - for the better. there is more energy now ...more connection with ..God, the source..
I do agree.. I was thinking about reality shows, India has got talent....people have started doing things which they never believed they could do before.. so many art forms - parkour for example.. there is no technology. it is just with our boies. They are able to do what used to be inhuman feats now..
People breaking glass and rolling on it.. small kids with such unusual talent... the labourers dance troupe with amazing dances..
Peoples perspective has changed. They believe they can do anything and they actually do...
Movements.. anti capitalist movements, jasmine revolution, anna hazare, everyone has started caring about the enviorment.. we who dont care that much are also forced to care.. the earth has started caring as if..
vegetarians everywhere.. I find so many in the UK for varied reasons like meat costs more to earth and all.
World against interenet piracy, open source - who would have thought it would work, Java- it is all eutopian if u think about it.. yes I think the world is changing for the better and it is quickening too..
All those people being interesting in sprituality and meditation and practices and knowlegde that was secret and in the hand of few and almost lost is for everyone to pic and use..its overflowing some charge money for it.. many give it just for free.. its everywhere It started 100 years ago Vivekanand and Yogananda and Anne Bessant etc.. but it didnt catch on untill now.. Internet can be anyone's guru...
world consciousness is changing people are asking do I have to work to live, people are questioning everything!! Its awesome!
Are we living in interesting times? :-}

Worlds with in worlds
It is strange that we think of these things even when we are little kids.. its as if we know..
How come we thought of profound things when we were little kids?
What if this is not life at all but all a dream. what if I am some one else sleeping somewhere and dreaming of this?
What if there is a world like earth on every electron - we used to get this thought becuase it was so uncany, planets revolve around sun and electrons revolve around the nucleus. just the same.. :-)
and in Reverse,What if we are just a small electron in the body of a huge huge huge organism... It would be so big we would never know!!
What if earth is a huge organism we are all cells of this organism, like we have cells and organs inside us, so does earth...
Reading a book which is bringing all this back,
Each cell in my body is indeed a life. It has the same DNA as me. Thats the only difference between my cell and a bacteria actually...otherwise they are pretty much same basically...single cell thingys...so I can imagine myself as made of millions of different bits of life...like forests and oceans filled with tiny life?!? in my own body, doing their own thing ,co-operating and keeping me functioning and happy. I m their eco system..a mini earth?
Aphids reproduce by vigrin birth( or whatever not going into technical details :P) a female takes over a plant and give birth to new females which have exactly the same DNA as the mother.. so all the aphids on a plant have the same DNA, in Selfish Gene Richard Dawkins calls all aphids on a plant as the same one organism...
so Its a matter of perspective...where the organism ends and the other begins... the lines are blurred.. he also says that different cells in our body started off life as individual organisms then they got into partnerships and got bound eternally ( ah! eternal true love! :P )
This book says, If u look at it in one way there is a world inside a world inside a world inside a world .. your red blood cells.. they have friends they have life cycle.. they do their job they grow old and they die.. and go to heaven.. so for some heavenly body aka god.. we are also like a cell of earth which is an organ for the solar system .. etc etc ... like we used to think when we were kids.. just like that :) ( Interestingly I heard similar concept in another meditation, heart chakra of earth is made up of crown chakras of all the people on earth! )
He talks about earth having a consciousness - the concept of Gaia.. who may actually be gently guiding evolution. So gods are not all powerful always right beings but Gaia is like us, getting things right by trial and error.. Only thing that characterises gods is love...gods infinite love..but his perspective is different from what we generally read in spiritual books
He says gods love for us Is exactly like our love for our red blood cell say :) hehe
Like u want ur red blood cell to be happy because it is part of u, but u dont really care that much for its prayers and happniess. do u? :P u want its well being and u love it.. sort off... but that love is not personal. because we are in completely different levels of consciousness.. red blood cell wouldnt understand me, ,my thoughts and motives would just be beyond comprehension for the blood cell, Its like we are alien to each other.. if my cell came out of the body and saw me.. say cause of blood transfusion.. it would think I m god eh? like that...I go and intervene in this world inside me, mostly when there is trouble.. and sometimes I succeed and sometimes I fail to put things right.. so does god! ( nahiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii :D )
