I shaved

Finally I shaved! A real strange experience for all my friends and loved ones including I myself!
13th eve four of us Visited Gurgaon, one of our devote family invited us for a satsang with 50-60 people. Including teachers and singers everyone was little conscious of the fact that lot of people of 16 story apartment complex were watching us singing and enjoying from their balconies only. The idea of approaching banks, organizations, school, college ete. is catching up, now we are making teams and approaching these institutions to send their groups in PDS. This is going to be 100% focus for next one week, the result is anyway in HIS jurisdiction. We moved to Arvind ji's home in Krishna Triveni apartment, another devotee family, All my press release writing skills (acquired in ABC workshop) got revised in writing an article cum news release for "Meri Delhi" news paper for the mega event, Seema ji (Arvind Jis wife) roped in with her seva as she is well qualified in Hindi and Sanskrit.
14th eve Subodh and myself reached my home Meerut Sharddha (my 3 year old darling daughter) could not recognized my clean shaved face at first look :-). Mummy, papa were little worried about something, I did not ponder into as we were little tired, simply prayed to Gurudev that they do the Delhi advance course with Gurudev. Reached Muzzafernagar today, we have all devotees get together in the eve here. I'm planning to talk about the power of being a devotee and significance of being the presence of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji for days. Being in his presence is like being in the Sun-light you just have remove the curtains the darkness will automatically disappear. Doing pranayam is a mere excuse to show something happening at physical level to people and to the cameras actually lot more happens silently by HIS presence.
Muzzafernagar Subodh’s satsang is very popular; almost 150 people came for the satsang. He surprised me by his unique way of doing satsang, talking a lot in between the satsang and standing and singing etc. I found it little strange but it works people really liked the satsang, they were upbeat at the end of the satsang 15 addition people got ready for the satsang, he actually seems to have the formula that works in these small UP cities. They relate with him!

After morning group sadhana attended by 60 odd devotes from Rohini area, got a good clarity on how successful chapters attracts a lot of attention from Ashram and Guru ji, apart from conducting courses the teachers in these chapters also organizes big art of living functions for other teachers like Rohini organized Sumeru Sandhia, 600 youths dhamaka, Vikram jis satsang etc. Chapters confidence increases!
Getting taste of the things today got to meet the Area sales manager of an organization to convince them to sale our coupons through their sales network. Also got an assignment from Gaurav ji to write a big Hindi press release for the Sunday's rally in Rohini. Kavita from Gujrat also joined us she did herself registered 1000 odd people for Surat PDS. Anurag, Subodh and Kavita we are working on getting 3300 people for PDS, sankalpa and power of team work.

First day in Rohini Delhi

First ride in Delhi Metro (some were surprised why you took so many days for it?), I'm
Really impressed, must experience this great example of project execution by a group of people. Real smooth ride, neat n clean and professionally managed.

Did not expect, nice to see the bunch of Art of Living teachers already Subodh, Keyuri, Ujjal present with a nice Art of living Tandans family in Sector-9 Rohini, they served really great food (Dalia in evening was too good). Afternoon satsang in a Village Bhawna 20 kms from Rohini, a Unique experience of doing a Satsang on a busy market crossing where blueline buses were passing on both sides of the people in satsang (250 odd) had to adjust for every heavy vehicle. Most of them promised to joint 27th satsang with Gurudev. Sidhart's singing quality has improved a lot! Evening meeting at the event office, Gaurav Verma is leading with a cool composure, I see lot of people active and taking responsibility. I shall start contributing more actively from tomorrow. Will focus on group registrations for PDS going forward!
