#MyBlahBlahBlogs Be so lost in the Rhythm of Your Soul, that the hustle bustle of the world is imperceivable to you. Within you, is your Mt. Kailash, within you is your Manasa Sarovar. Within you is everything Holy. Within you is everything powerfully terrible. Within you is everything powerfully terrific too. There might be a calm, there might be a raging sea storm. But, isn't everything Nature? She rearranges Herself as She deems fit, for Her survival. While bliss is within us, anger is too. Both equally powerful,serving their own purpose. We don't control expressing bliss in the right way. USE ANGER FOR RIGHTEOUS ACTION JUST THE SAME. The Navarasas( Nine emotions) have each, a role assigned to them. Painting each emotion that knocks upon the door of our sympathetic nervous system as negative, is immensely stupid. More importantly, 'ignoring' or bottling them up is stupider and extremely detrimental to our health in the long run. Due to festering of these so called negative emotions , we manifest so called lifestyle diseases like diabetes, hypertension, cancer etc.of course promptly contributing to these causes is the polluted air, water and food we consume. This I will continue in my next post... #MentalHealth #maymentalhealthawarenessmonth #mentalhealthawareness (at Bengaluru, Karnataka) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx0JErFHtzjq0GTtYS7FiDWEFHMbZphEtm0MVk0/?igshid=659kkesf53ef

Spanish, 30.JUL.2018 Om Sri Sai Ram Krodha (ira) es un veneno mortal. Afecta a los demás por su humo, manifestado a través de los ojos, la lengua y las manos. La semilla de un árbol venenoso se convierte en una planta venenosa y cuando llegue a ser en un gran árbol, sus hojas, flores y frutos también serán venenosos. Así también, la persona adicta a la ira solo puede emitir veneno a través del pensamiento, la palabra y la acción. Un pensamiento iracundo es como un guijarro arrojado a las aguas tranquilas del Manasa-sarovar (Lago de la Mente) presente dentro del hombre. Crea un efecto circular que se extiende por todo el lago. La ira es muy perjudicial para el progreso de la juventud. Esfuércense por todos los medios para evitar que el veneno ingrese a su composición mental. Cultiven el amor, la bondad, el espíritu de servicio y fomenten todos los pensamientos de cooperación con los demás. Vean la Divinidad en cada uno, de la misma forma en que deben verla en ustedes mismos. (Divine Discurso, 7 de diciembre de 1978). Sathya Sai Baba www.sathyasai.org.ar #sathyasai #saibhakta #dailysaigram (em Rio de Janeiro)

An experience with Himalayan Dogs

Chiu-Gompa is a beautiful place near Manasa Sarovar that has good facilities to stay overnight during the Kailash-Manasa Sarovar yatra.  Our tour organizers had arranged for a night halt in this place.  We had discussions with our team for an early morning visit to Manasa Sarovar when the darkness of the night still persist and we can see angels & saints coming in the form of stars to take a holy dip in the Manasa Sarovar.  The organizers advised us to go in groups not less than 4-5 people and keep sticks for safety from the ferocious Himalayan Dogs and these dogs can tore us into pieces. Since there is scarcity of fuel wood and the earth is mostly sandy, the human dead bodies are neither burnt nor buried. Instead they are cut into pieces and thrown on the hills far away from human settlements which are eaten by eagles, hawks, dogs and other wild animals that live there.  They also informed that we have to be very careful near the Manasa Sarovar as the wet soil in some places swallows us into it.  As many expressed their interest to see the miracle of angels & saints taking holy dip in the form of stars, we decided to get up at 3 a.m and go to the Manasa Sarovar.

 Accordingly my wife & I got up at 3 a.m next day and got ready to go to the Manasa Sarovar.  We also awakened few others but they asked us to go on and they would join after an hour.  So only two of us had to go in that darkness, we took a plastic sheet to sit and a stick as advised by the organizers.  It was about 15 minutes walk from the rooms where we stayed.  Though it was supposed to be dark, because of the moon shine, quick raising sun at that altitude and no plants/trees in that area, we could see the hills around very clearly.  On one of the hills that was about 4-5 kms away from us, we saw a pack of black dogs barking & running fast towards another hill.  And one black dog was sitting on the ground nearby and was looking at us silently & innocently.  

                                                                  It was a very pleasant view of Manasa Sarovar.  It is approximately 76 kms circumference natural pond at a height of 18800 ft. above sea level. Couples of Ducks were moving on the sweet crystal clear cold waters at two three places. Plenty of stars and other luminous bodies in the sky were looking like a serial set lighting arrangement made only to illuminate the Manasa Sarovar.  It was just a heavenly experience.  We started gazing at the stars in the sky to see if any of these star is coming into the Manasa Sarovar to take a holy dip.  After few minutes of standing together, my wife expressed that she wishes to meditate for some time and went towards the Manasa Sarovar, about 40-50 feet from where we were standing.  Since I did not want to disturb her meditation, I was standing there only.                                                

As she was opening the plastic sheet to spread on the floor, we heard the barking sound of dogs nearby and they were running towards us in an attacking mode.  The dog that was sitting silently & innocently near us until then also joined the group of other dogs and starting barking at us ferociously.  We both were in a SHOCK! Not knowing what to do!!  Our legs were stuck to ground and unable to move.  I must praise the lord god for giving me courage to handle that situation.  Without me knowing what I am doing, I told my wife in loud voice not to move and turning towards the dogs raised the stick that was in my hand to my heart level and spoke to them in a commanding voice.  I don’t remember the exact words…  I was speaking in Kannada language…  My action could be looking like a ring leader in the circus to those dogs. I commanded them to stop barking and stop attacking us.  I commanded them to sit in silence.  Then I commanded them to go back.  All this happened in less than 3 minutes.  As I commanded the dogs obeyed my instructions.  They stopped barking, some of them sat, rest of them still standing and finally all of them silently turned back and started running back towards the hills.  They were more than a dozen in the pack.  Within couple of minutes they were on the hills that were 4-5 kms away.  While all those went back, this one, that was sitting silently in the beginning and joined the pack when they arrived, remained near us and now again sat silently and innocently.
