Witness

आज एकादशी. परमेश्र्वर चिंतन, दूरदर्शनवर विठोबा दर्शन, खिचड़ी, फळे, भगर असा दिवस होता.  कामात विशेष बदल नव्हता.  आजचा विचार - साधनात गुरफटने आणि साध्यासाठी साधन विसरणे दोनीही टाळलेले भले. सुयोग्य साधन आणि निस्सीम साध्यास दोनीही साधण्याचा प्रयत्न असावा. ॐ

 आज सकाळी थंडी जाणवली. कावळे सात तर चिमण्या आठ पर्यंत किलबिलाट करतात. नंतर वाहनांची गजबजाहट सुरू होते. आवरून नित्य साधना करून साडेदहा होतात काम सुरू करायला. आज थोडा गोंधळ होता. पण ते चालायचं. स्वप्नील सर, पियू ताई आणि प्रथमेश आज आले. आशुचा वाढदिवस आणि त्यांची सुट्टी असा योग. संध्याकाळी नेहमीचं लिंबू, सैंधव मीठ, आलं असं गरम पाणि बनवलं. लोकडाऊन मध्ये ती सवय कायम आहे. आज इतर मसाला घेतला नाहीं. आजचा विचार - कर्म धर्म संयोगाने गोष्टी घडतात. आपण सजग संवहनशील राहणं महत्त्वाचं.  ॐ

 It was a  meetings and field day for the software we built. Mostly smooth.  Took time out for skipping. 157 rope jumps. Thought of the day - we need no thing as a prerequisite to be being self. Dependent on no externality. No entitlement. The constant beyond time.

Could find time to file IT return. Same old xls XML upload way with instant aadhar verification. Workwise the day was moderately loaded. Some calls and meetings. Thought of the day - some days pass as unnoticed mechanical way, we should keep up the clamour for higher longing irrespective.

 It was a early wake up sunday. Watched Rangoli on DD national.  Today's Sadhana included sri sukt havan. Watched a movie in the afternoon. Also had a nap. Had a lemon grass tea in the evening. Watched an interesting video in the evening claiming astronomically it can be proven that The Mahabharat war happened 3067 BCE - more on https://mobile.twitter.com/mmpandit Thought of the day - The more we get into procedure or the more we disregard the procedure there is a trap. The goal and the means both should concur in a balanced way, just like salt in food.

 Its was a saturday. Got up at bit late than ususal. The progressed got some office calls. Addressed some issues. Completed some tasks that I had promised myself. Started reading books. Shri dasbodh. It is full of wisdom. It has deep impact on the subconscious. There are certain books  that have one theme that you can catch and it continues. But dasbodh is full of pearls. One particularly got impressed is the significance of human birth. It lists down the great things achieved by human beings and how fortunate we are to have it. It further goes on impress altruistic life as what we say its my own is actually shared. The space we live in, the body we have, is all shared by cohabitants. Family, microorganisms. So it should occur naturally to us to think for all. Yesterday went to dental clinic to have Kanad's troubling milk teeth removed. Dr Dharmadhikari was dressed up like a Covid fighter. He skillfully gave local anesthesia and removed three already decayed loose troubling three f

 It was a moderately busy day. Could get ball rolling on some fronts. Deep work paving way for generalizations and scale. Thought for the day - In middle of likes and dislikes lies the balanced one, calm, steady and unwavering experience.
