Last night coming home after the BST, tired and longing to get into my comfortable bed, seeing the house condition completely annoyed me. And of course who else could be the target of my displeasure other than Milind-my husband 😜
Since I didn’t have enough energy to calling him and sharing my thoughts, nor the patience to clean the place, crashed to bed.
Just before closing my eyes a striking thought, a glimpse of my game, a mild nagging of my conscience brought back the awareness.
I caught my game and I knew that the BST is working :):
My game, My drama, My Truth – I was expecting him to turn the mess I left on Tuesday before rushing for retreat into a heaven in just one (partial) day he spent at home . Because in his weekly weekend home visits from Plano TX where his present project is, he even came to meet me at Turlock driving for 1.5 hours, just because on previous Sunday I had made a puppy face saying “Oh so I will not see you for 3 weeks?”, before he left for Plano.
I kept my silence acknowledging my truth and peacefully surrendered to sleep:)
This morning when I sat for my chai found 2 packs of pretzels left for me on table. These are the small packets served free on flights. I love them as they are way more tastier than those you get in stores and because I survive on them in absence of vegetarian food during my flights:).
While munching on my favorite snack, I felt overwhelmed with Milind’s silent love for me and for my silly choices:)
My Prayascitta (penance)– Without wasting a moment, I expressed my love to him by texting him for this huge love gesture with a “😘”.
I was joyfully rewarded instantly with his response “😁❤”.
This made both of our days:):)
My learning from this BST–
– It is more important to Create after Closing the past.
– Being with my Truth gives me the Courage to Create my prayaschitta (प्रायश्चित्त) – Penance,
– Samadhi brings me in my Lovingness to Create my Sanklpas 🙏🏼,
– Commitment (Sadhana) to my Samyama is my own SwaDharma ( internal code of conduct).
– It’s TRUTH and only TRUTH which leads me to my SwaDharma and fuels Atmashakti (My inner Power) to manifest my Sankalpas.
My Realization–
– Observe Self
– Acknowledge Truth,
– Accept to self n the other,
– Bring Closure with Love,
– Enjoy being one,
– Experience ecstatic love life
Application of 5 foundations of BST attitude –
Vinay– Humility, humbleness;
Shraddha- Trust coming from love;
Bhakti– Devotion;
Preeti– Love;
Sharanagati– Surrendering unconditionally.
Feeling eternally grateful to my Guru Poojya Rishi Prabhakarji and my BST teacher Jgadishji who is a great shishya of my Guru.
