Ions of Karma

 In Basic Chemistry  courses we all must have learnt about cation and anion. Formation of negative and positive charged atom. Where in ground state all the atoms are neutral. Only through exchange of electron, a process of ionization - removal or gaining of electron on outer most shell of electronic configuration of an atom , brings ion. Many of the atom are either found in ionic form or they combine with eachother to form a compound. 

Now, Just look at this two words

ACTION and INACTION

and read them like , Act - Ion and Inact - Ion.

from outer behavior of human life, either of the Ion would be seen.  and yoga asks us to come to this natural state without getting affected and still doing electronic game of life. 

There is lot more into subject of Act - Ion and Inact- Ion, but right now just this much to ponder upon.

Birth and Death

During my yoga teacher training course, Hansa Ma gave us beautiful definition of life. 

That life, which we consider happens between birth and death. In simple and short story, she said life is what happens between 'B' and 'D'. Life is something which happens between birth and death. that is generally what we know. But we forget there is a 'C' in between. C for Choices. This choices is what makes life. 

The Mother of Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Puducherry says

Life is a perpetual choice between truth and falsehood, light and darkness, progress and regression, the ascent towards the heights or a fall into the abyss. It is for each one to choose freely.

29 February 1952

On day of my birth, I have chosen and consecrate all to Parampriya. 

The 35th year of this physical existence and year 2021, I wish to work upon few things and as a practice have taken few steps. Sharing those steps below.

1. Goal and area of work - practice & development for the year can be summed up in 5 C's *
• Capacity (mainly at physical level but not limited there.)
• Collaboration 
• Creation
• Concentration, and
• Consecrate (अर्पण किया हुआ) 
2.  In process I have made a list of 108 things vaibhav would be creating in the year 2021. {even after writing 108, it seems list can go beyond 108.} To fulfill all the need of the creation, there require devotion of time and energy to lot of learning & mastering few art as well as create.
3. To fulfill above goal, I have taken a break from almost all forms of Social Media (Whatsapp, Instagram, Facebook). I wish, I could have taken some more other account deletion too but have kept them open. They are LinkedIn and Telegram. Gmail is unattached yet due to technical complications. 
4. Above social media withdrawal is also part of practice to observe some of the internal working, of whose I have got addicted to. Once 108 are done, I would be back, and in between just to test my own mental & emotional balance and time management, might appear for few days/week. but as of now, and at least for next few weeks, I am away. 
5. There are other choices which are also taking place, but its better to do them rather speak beforehand. 
6. Already collaborating with few people to create courses, material, program. If you are interested to collaborate in learning journey or want to learn along with me - drop an email on vaibhav@love2learn.xyz I will share the list and we can have conversation on how, what to build up. 

Yesterday night, I went through all melodrama of neurons and finally plunge into the virtual death for new creation. This whole experience is just amazing and every passing moment, I can see how much mind is accustom to living and dearly clings to it. How Intellect looses the power and serves the senses, making us do things which we want and we do not want.

For some of you this might look shocking, strange or silly. May that be so. 

Hope to see you here and few places more real. and May be on virtual world after gap of time.

* C - of choices and other C's is something I love. C of Carbon is second largest constituents of the body and what is left on earth after we pass away. One of the program I ran last year CiC, in which 14 people got chance to interact & learn is wholly based upon the choices and consciousness. This year, I wish to design it in collaboration with participant & make it more experiential with real projects.

  

ઉડવું કે ?

ઉડવું કે રડવું, નક્કી કરી લે

ખુદને પિછાણી, પાકું કરી લે.

તારે શાનું ડરવું,

જે હાકિમ કે'હ તે કરવું!

ઉડવું, પડ ફાડ ને પર થી ભરી લે

ફાળ, કદાચ પડીશ ચાર વાર કે બે

વારંવાર, ઉભો થાજે રાખી વિશ્વાસ

અદ્ધર નથી કોઈ બીજો આધાર

પળમાં થઈ જાશે આર- પાર. 

લડવું કે મળવું, નક્કી કરી લે

ઉડવું કે રડવું, નક્કી કરી લે

ખુદને પિછાણી, પાકું કરી લે

સમય ની સાથે, ધીરજ ધરી દે

તારે શાનું ડરવું,

જે હાકિમ કે'હ તે કરવું!

મુસ્તાક થઈ , કે આસક્ત થઈ

થઈ જવામાં જે તું છે

તેને નવ છોડી દે.

પકડી રાખી હવાને, આઝાદી દઈ દે

આઝાદી લઈ લે.

પ્રેમથી ખીલવું, એ પાઠ લઈ દે,

તારે શાનું ડરવું,

જે હાકિમ કે'હ તે કરી દે.

મજા સજા ના આ ભાવ તાલ છોડી દે

સમ થઈ જા ને, મર્મ જાણી લે

તારે શાનું ડરવું,

જે હાકિમ કે'હ તે કરી દે.

lots and tons of wishes...

Lots and tons of wishes for

yet another day,

a yet another year,

Another decade.

where you will not say yet and yet

I haven't not dine this and that 

 and make divine grace wait to act.

Rather you will always say

Let and let

Let thy will be done.

Say it out loud

Feel proud.

Don't treat the time

Just like others

Make it yours.

Moments comes and goes

You do not seat and mourn.

Movement is your life

Moment after moment

In rest and action

Whatever the garment it wore.

Met and kept time on  your side

Let that sets you free.

Always met

And get all, set all;

Trap of net, beware!

That pulls you down 

And push you around

In dream of lush green

Mountain path.

May you enjoy going up

And look down with Compassion's eye.

What you leave behind do not count.

What you will gain ahead do not count.

Just be an eternals fount,

A joy, a light and power all surmount.
