Beauty in your Backyard....

I did a walk in Lal Bagh  yesterday after a long while, and that evening walk made me see, yet again, the beauty in our backyard......and yes, the connect within, the sync with the subconscious mind. Something we so easily move away from in everyday life..into the life of detail. 




Connecting to nature, is to all over again connect to life, connect to the within. The walk was with a friend, and the talking during the walk was on Vipassana...... the what and why of it. And it took me that connect to nature, to communicate what I couldn't with words. Nature is to be experienced not spoken about. So also with Vipassana, it then sufficed to say........its an experiential learning. 

And when you're at turning points in life....it's best time to sync with yourself, re-evaluate, re-energize, and re-align. Vipassana enables that at a brilliant level, as it's all about that connect with the deeper you, the journey within. We know today that our thought process works in small part from the conscious mind and majorly from the subconscious mind, and further that the conscious mind is so dominated by the 'latest and the loudest', the din of life, that we don't really get to touch base with the subconscious. So if you want to be able to shut off that din and have a prolonged sync with the subconscious, know yourself that much better, Vipassana is a great tool.  

Even on the practical scale, it'll break through all those mind sets which tell you ....'you can't'. I can't do with twelve hours of sitting on the floor, I can't do with so little food, I can't sleep on a stone bench, I can't not write, I can't not read. All constraints of the mind. They break and disappear. 

And the perspective change to life it enables, empowers you to take on....well, almost anything. So if you think you want it, don't wait to be ready....just go do it !!
