Guru n Stuff n Stories

yeah.....

Things like guru and spirituality seemed more like brain washing and escapism. I was so totally NOT the guru type. Just the mention of someone with long robes and beard...and I headed

1000 miles in the opposite direction.

Then one day something touched me. Like never before.

Tears poured out. Like never before.

Tears of gratitude, tears of bliss, tears of love.

I still told myself, I am so not the Guru kind. And I will NOT get 'brain washed'.

But something unexplainable pulled me in his direction.

The way just one smile would make you forget all your problems

The way one glance would transform your life

the way one sign would rearrange the universe, making it just a playground for you

So effortlessly, so easily, so innocently, so mischievously, so lovingly creating deep knowledge to crazy confusion to intense emotions to explosive frustrations just for you to go through it all.

At times you feel being on this 'path' is so much more painful (so why be here in the first place)

then you feel like the luckiest creature on earth coz he looked at you (even if he was really looking at the 'elephant' behind(then the elephant is the luckiest creature))

And then all you are left with is a bunch of random sentences trying so hard to be a story.

And yet there is a story in every word. A Guru story.

When he looked

when he smiled

when he waved

when he laughed

when he pointed

when he paused
