Current Affairs : Anti-Corruption Movement : Gita Abhyasa :: Need of the moment : Niratamu Chintana : Tapas : Bhagavad Gita

Ever since Annaji had begun his fast..,

I had thought of nothing but him, his movement and have actively prayed for his life and for his success! I have written only on topics related to his movement.

I have been to freedom park thrice in one week. This may look like nothing to others, but I very rarely leave home unless there is some need. I am generally happiest in temples and in the presence of my Veda Guru, Kunda Miss and my my very close family and friends. I was extremely happy in the presence of Annaji’s followers at freedom park.

Guruji says that nirata chintana is tapas. So in my way I have done tapas for the past 12 days or more.

As I wait for him to break his fast in twenty min,

I see how I have changed and grown in the past couple of weeks.

And yet today, for the first time, I saw the clouds in the blue sky. And I know I am at peace.

I know that my way shall be the study of the Vedas and Truth, and that my urge is to express my thoughts on these subjects. This is my way, my choice.

Yet I know that when Annaji calls, I shall be listening, when he teaches I will learn.

I think Swami Vivekananda is my role model. Atmano Mokshartham Jagad Hitaya ca.

I have my Veda Guru to guide me personally and on my chosen path. I have Anna Hazaare to guide me on samaaja dharma.

Everything about this movement has reminded me of the Bhagavad Gita.

“klaibyam maa sma gamah pArtha” : Don’t be unmanly! (as in be resolute .. not half way).

“Dharma kshetre kurukshethra samavetAh yuyutsuvah..” : In the field of Dharma and Karma, have gathered all the warriors, mine and the others.. what do they do, Oh Sanjaya?

Of course Sanjaya in this case was Arnab!

“yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata..” : when drama declines and adharma rises, I shall create (sRja) myself to protect the good and destroy the bad.

“karmaNyevAdhikArastE..” : Your right is to do your karma, your duty.

“ahankAra vimUDhAtma kartAham iti manyate” : A deluded self thinks that it is the doer!

And of course when I heard some people speak I thought ” as’OchyAn anvas’Ocastvam pragnyAvAdAnsca bhASase” .. you think what should not be thought and speak wise sounding words.

And so much much more!

For me Annaji’s movement was a lab exercise in the Gita! Gita Abhyasa.

Jai jagadguru Sri Krishna! Jai Anna Hazaare!
