Think Like Krishna

YES+ Satsang started with banjans of Ganesh and went on with Hari Narayana,Durga , Guru, Gopala etc..and atlast Sagar main aak leher uti tere naam ki...uuuuuk uuuuk..

Wah what happy moments we had with Vasanthi Amma sharing her experiences and answering the Questions.

She said for youth it is LEARNING and for the adult it is UNLEARNING.


These are some of the questions that she has answered ..


1.How can the youth excel in spirituality without the distractions around the world?
A: There is no age for the distractions . Spirituality does not qualify with age. Distractions for spirituality happens at every age. The senses work at all the times , right from a small baby to the old people get distracted by the senses.
Do not judge anything as bad or good feelings or thoughts, when the feeling arises let it arise , bring back the attention towards the body and observe the sensation. Wonder about the feelings do not give advices to the mind .Just be happy.

We are made up of Physical, Mental & Spiritual Energy .Spirituality is the mother of the other two energies . Spiritual Energy is always present. Mind is full of thoughts ,but now we are listening and there are no thoughts but still we are here ,we are beyond our senses/thoughts/feelings. That is consciousness, which is basis of our being. In Youth the physical body undergo changes and the Physical energy dominates.

2.In Art of living people accept Innocence but outside they expect excellence and intelligence every where. How to be innocence and intelligent?
A: The question is not about innocence it is about ignorance .Innocence of an ignorant person is not good. Innocence is the openness to learns from all .Like Mother Earth taking sun energy.

Don’t think that I do not want money and I live like a swamiji , sitting in ashram. You have work ,take responsibility to know what is happening in the world and act accordingly. When you are thinking with mind , think like Krishna.

You have been given the process to understand your self and mind so make use of it to the fullest extent.

3.I don’t want to take responsibility these days and I feel like to escape from doing Sewa .

A: How long you can escape my dear. Divine will catch you later and make you to work over time. This over time job will not be paid , rather you have to pay more than what is required.

4. What is your message for people who seek attention?

A:I pitty them , they do not recognize how beautiful their self is . Demand for love is the worst thing for a human being. It is a immature attitude .Love is felt within our self and we look around for others appreciation and love .Love for oneself dissolve all demand and attention.


I dont remember the rest .After the Session we had a delicious Black forest and treat by Natsan Uncle as it was his Birthday.

Everything is Taken Care



Hi folks,

Yesterday we had a Star satsang , and the star is Vasanthi Srinivasan one of the Senior Art of Living teachers. She is so simple ,natural and very good devotee. She was Sharing experiences of GuruDev in her early days of Art of Living, Gurudev Himself gave training to her for the botherations( learning the Art) she had..He made her understand simple things but which are profound.Every time she brings a question He will ask her to sit and ponder on "who is asking the question?"..after sitting for some time and going through all the feelings ..she got an answer of "Simpliy just be ".

The way she definied MAYA(illusion) is awesome .."We look for happiness either in past or future,both past and future are not there NOW at present .So which is not there now and thinking it is there is MAYA" .
She took us a process where we were all just being with ourself .
At that time I was getting calls from my friend Morthy , I have invited him for the satsang but He was lost some where..so i just thought "Guruji ,take care of Morthy" . I ve finished the process , feeling good and natural after her guru stories ..I tried calling Morthy after Her sharing and I found Morthy just behind me wishing me Jai Guru Dev..! I was just jumping there and felt "Everything is taken care..!"

Love
