Week in an "Art of living"

The only inspiration behind writing a blog, is to make my friends aware about my life & routines. (Its a better way to to remain in a "mass touch"). Hence round of applause to all my friends viewing my blog...... Last week, I attended Art of Living shibir. I would like to share my experience over there. It was a basic course & according to me basically meant for depressed & dejected persons desperately seeking happiness. What motivated me to join only God knows. It was although in my "to-do" list since long. Perhaps I was fed up with my routines & want to make myself believe I am still alive. Some 60-70 people attended the shibir. Most of them were pot bellied middle aged trodden down under the worldly pressures. These different creatures came up with different purposes. Some attended the seminars just because to attend such seminars nowadays are in vogue. There were also some over enthu people which made the shibir more interesting.

Basically, the very purpose of this shibir is to make people learn "how to live happily". It tries to remove all negative thoughts & its just how to fool ourselves to remain happy. We always knew these kind of blah blah..But the shibir gives it a shot to this. And it genuinely makes difference though only for a week. They just try to teach us "Yoga" & certain basic exercise. They instill a kind of peppiness in all the sadist people gathered. You are also required to do some childish stuff which u would start enjoying slowly. Aged people particularly like such kinda activity as they have lost their intrest in life & never expeienced such thrill. (Though they would make a face whenever their children doesn't become serious. It is rightly said "Do we have to become soo serious in life?? Can't we become sincere without being serious in life??".) All people come here to ignite the lost spark in them on the contrary they simultaneouly responsible to blow the spark out of their children's life.

I don't know exactly what mass histeria is but one experience such mass histeria kind of thing when one attends the seminar. Every resolutions starts with an overwhelming enthusiasm but fades away like flood. One needs to stick to "vrat" in order to grow. Same applies to this course. But anyway one should experience this kind of things. Who knows you could pursuit your "Happyness" there!

P.S :- Any comment therein is welcomed. Pardon the amateur for any lacuna...

Lots of Love,
