Jobless

Joblessness , how it will feel . I was contemplating this question for a long long time . I was working for L&T the day i turned to legal age of being employed, that is when i turned 18 . Never in this long service , in got fired. the maximum time i was away from work is when i take my exams. So literally i was never been jobless . But one fine morning i have decided to do the unimaginable (atleast for me) . I took a decision to resign from a well paying , highly respectable , very good boss . I resigned from L&T . I had some 50000 in my bank account . no major bills to pay except my phone ,n home & food . I became a jobless person . jobless , just jobless. my parents do not know , i told him some different versionn of story , which they will beleive , since i am not living with them . how i am feeling about it ? have i had the freedom , i thought i was lokking for ? how did i kkilled my time ? long long questiong , which i need to answer . but i am finally JOBLESS , no boss, no one to pay money to me, scary but really really what i want in my life right now .............

I hate returning my identity card . I will miss my evening coffee in the crowded college canteen . But Change is must & I think my studies in this college for good .I have lost many opportunities to move out of Chennai. I have gained a lot . My studies made me to look behind horizon . It gave me confidence . But I hate to leave my college . Tree studded campus , red brick main hall, comments in classroom , gossips about the lecturer . Every one would love to relive their college life . Any way life moves on & on .

I love the fact that you are invisible , I love the fact that I am searching for u , Why I am so content just for the joy of searching you? Why I am so content ?
you are the one who gives the joy to every one , you are the joy , you are the happiness . You are the nectar of life , what else I can think of asking you ?
Do i really need any thing other than you ? Am I mad to ask for anything else other than you ?
Oh my sweet , sugary , chocolaty friend ............
U love to hide yourself behind the veil of maya , you love to hide yourself from my vision , only elite people can see you , but i started wondering do I relly want to see you ?
I am content , oh my sweet sugary friend , I am content.

WHY WE TREK?

Why we trek.
I’ve often found myself under scrutiny when someone asks the dubious question. Why do we trek. Mountains are like roads. You see the same things in different shapes and sizes. Some climbs, some walks, some water, some heat, some panic, some trepidation and some remorse. Mostly – some entertainment.

So why do we trek? Many non-trekkers have pondered me with the thought. Couldn’t you just spend the weekend chilling with a good food and a movie? Maybe a trip to the beach and some friends . Why go all the way into the mountains, hurt yourself, get tanned (not a particular problem for my well nurtured skin tone), get tired and suffer from cramps for the next 2 days! Why?

As trekkers, the answer is clear. It’s second nature – like riding a bicycle. But how do you explain this to a first timer or a non-trekker? Every step you take right from the point you leave the base camp to the stage when you are traveling back is a reflective education. To me, trekking is a school.

Humility to begin with. Life teaches you a little something when there are 40+ people endeavoring towards a single cause – fending for each other – walking hand in hand so to speak – with not a care for the countless self praise that we are so tuned into accumulating in the city life – and to be in the sheer presence of nature. Yes – there are things greater than I.

The very basic pre-requisite of carrying less to walk more is the shortest cut in learning the art of contentment. How little do we really need! A mat, some fruit, a few packets of ready-made poli, 2 servings of Maggi and maybe if you get lucky – some Chappati! Soon we learn that it’s a LOT for 2 days.

When I walked through Venkateswara, I couldn’t help notice in awe, the formation of mountain rocks. Could the tectonic activity that we’ve reluctantly heard about from a disgruntled geography teacher actually have been true? Does water really flow from the mountains into the valleys? If the water tastes so amazing here, then boy think of the centuries of pollution we must have dished out in the cities to be victimized with hard, insipid water. We are lucky however to be in an era where this level of nature is still accessible. What of our children, and then theirs? Mountains and Nature could merely become pages out of history books and that I am alive today to experience the wonder which centuries later – people might only read about (or watch in cgi).

Trekking is a school. Yes, it’s the same mountains and the same rocks. Yes there is some water and some of it “falls”. But when you see it, it’s awe inspiring. It’s magic – nothing less. When you wake up on a sleeping mat at 6am and with eyelids mustering strength to travel the 2 centimeters, the sight is one of hovering rocks and majestic ranges. Water ripples in the distant and the ear is soothened to contentment. Try experiencing that in a 30 by 30 apartment!

When books speak about a universal connection with all things living (and those that don’t), it’s not all fallacy. There’s significant truth in it and people see that in many ways. A few meditate. A few pursue music. We trek.

Trekking is a school and the knowledge is not only irreplaceable, it is acutely unobtainable within the walls of city life.

So – to the non-trekkers and the first timers who have found trekking an arduous challenge, I urge you to look deeper. The school is here today and it awaits students with an abundance of knowledge, education and love.

Weekend ( 3 & 4 / 4 / 2010 ) at coimbatore

Another week end & another place to go . This week end , I selected a place with lots of scope for doing different things . I went to Velliyangoro / Isha Yoga center at coimbatore . I did trekking , I did yoga (!) , I had a rejuvenating body massage , I watched a movie & what not .

I have done the following things in the last two days

A) Spent some time at ISHA YOGA CENTER . The rating for the center is as below ,

TOP 5 at ISHA YOGA CENTER :
1)Food – day 2 . Amazing chappathis , buttermilk , Salads – The taste is divine , Hope it had lots of people's love in it as ingredient
2)Food – day two . Kanchi , with ash gourd sambar is ecastacy.
3) Architecture of all the buildings
4) Head , shoulder & full body massage with mud pack at ISHA rejuvenating center – Wonderfully relaxing
5)????????
(sorry prasanth & other ISHA yogis , yoga has not even came close to top 5 in this trip . I know Yoga on other side of the river looks only funny to me , Hope i will cross this river in near future & attain NIRVANA )

B) Done trekking to velliyangirir top , the kailash of south India . The stay on chilly night on the top was freezing & the sun rise is a treat to the eyes.
C) Bought some flowering plants , to improve my Garden.
D) walked along the famous opanakara veedi , Raja street of Coimbatore , All the shops in Coimbatore has branches in chennai ,like nalli, big bazar , chennai silks , etc , only window shopping .
E) Saw the telugu movie “VARUDU” although i don't understand a word of Telugu . I had to kill time since i had 2 hrs for my bus & i badly needed a A/C climate owing to hot Coimbatore Evening .The Movie is all crap , but there was lots of whistling to the Hero . Until interval the heroine was in screen for 3 min & 23 seconds only , all other time , hero , hero & hero . Crap .
F) Had idly sambar at famous GOWRISHANKAR hotel in Cbt , it tastes similar to TRIPLICANE RATNA CAFE SAMBAR.
G) Came back to chennai in sleeper bus , your bowl should be perfect shape to travel in the sleeper of a bus , otherwise u r in deep deep trouble.

Since many people complained that I am writing big blogs I am completing my weekend (3 to 4 / 4 / 2010 ) blog with this .
