Witness

Start of the day at 9 am. Watched man ki baat and India Australia test match. At around noon came to Mandar. Bath, havan and nitya sadhana was performed. Mandar joined for sandhya. Continued reading in the afternoon. Went to Star outlet for brief shopping. Mandar prepared batata vada and I made biryani.  Continued watching a video that I plan to complete. Thought of the day - Underutilization is best avoided.

 Went to SSD for follow up and dressing. Mandar came by for pickup/ drop to and from hospital. Had to wait for an hour.  It was shrikhand for lunch. Did take bath after returning from hospital. It was madhyanya sandhya and pooja. In the afternoon Onkar called, regarding his house buying. He decided to liquidate his MF savings to buy house, after flirting with idea to sell gold. The eventful year is coming to an end. It was spent home bound, making the inner world disciplined and becoming a better seeker. Thought of the day - The spiritual progress and awareness is the pillar around which our ancestors lived life. Much is lost in translation but what remains still enough to amaze and make deep impression.

 It was a working day. मोक्षदा एकादशी, गीता जयंती. दिवस व्यस्त होता. बापू आत्या आणि फॅमिली फदरांंची गांठ घ्यायला आले होते.   फादरांंच पोट आज ऑपरेशन नंतर पहिल्यांदा नीट साफ झाल. टेंशन कमी झालं.  काही प्रश्न कसे सोड़वायचे या विचारात रात्रि वेळ गेला.  आजचा विचार - जवाबदारी घेणं मर्म आहे.

 It was a back to work day. Meetings in the morning and afternoon. Went to Mumbai in the evening. A stroll at gateway of India and at Marine drive. Atharv Chatufale, Changa, dada, Manku, Mandar.  Here is how it looked. Less crowd, desperate sellers.  Testing times.  Caught up with mails once back. Had bhajji bhakri mattha dinner that Aai had prepared. Tillu wad going back to Tuljapur the next day. Wished him focus, efforts and luck for competitive exams. Thought of the day - Limitlessness lies in the present nothing is conditional.

 Today Arvindrao got discharge from hospital. Came back home.  I joined office. In the evening, went out for stroll with Tillu, Atharv, Kanad , Manku and Mandar. Gateway and marine drive. It was less crowded. Drive was good one. Came back and had bhajji bhakri that aai had prepared. Thought of the day - Mind is a thought machine better be kept quiet when not needed and focussed when at work.

At around 6 PU tai came with coffee for father. Came back to home, had bath and nitya sadhana. Checked mails, had lunch and went back to hospital. The doctor visited and enquired about health. He advised discharge tomorrow. Advised walking.  Went to Mandar in the afternoon when Ashu and Aai were in the hospital. Atharv Chatufale / Tillu has come at Mandar's place. Had a walk in Nisarg Udyan with him and Mandar in the evening. He is a bright kid. Will excel in the field he chooses. At night its regular medicine dose. Father had rice and dal for dinner.  In the evening Lalit Chauhan called and in the night Amit & Amar called. Chit chat. Hope for catchup once we have vaccine dose. Thought of the day - awakened is a better state than unaware ignorance. ॐ

 Today Harnia operation of Arvindrao was done. From admission to back to the room, it went well. There was uneasiness that he reported during night owing to stomach ache.  The pain should subside in couple of days time. Bapu was there since morning till evening. Mandar was there during the operation and some time during the night. Swapnil sir was there in shifts. Went upstairs the hospital and tried to see the great Saturn and jupiter conjunction in the west. Saw the glimpse with sky gazing and compass. Thought of the day - Trust the god and do the right thing. ॐ
