Beach Frenzie
We don't get much time off but I tell you this. It won't stop us from taking every minute we can to run down to the beach and throw ourselves into the ocean. It's amazing. Blue green waters, lovely waves, and tepid water.
No swimming date this morning but threw self into water at 4 in the morning anyway. The best way to wake up ever. For some reason the water was a bit chilly this morning (probably round 20 degrees so not complaining) but it brought a smile to my face just the same. Although did manage to fall asleep in Satsang two hours later. Do not think that this was because of bad start to morning. No some American man who has lived and travelled in india for many years and knows Sanskrit and has written a million books and translated the Baghavad Gita bla bla bla bla (his ego is bigger than any ego I have ever seen and yet he calls himself a yogi) is doing the Bhagavatam Sapta. Stories about Krishna. the same one I did in india two years ago that was so amazing. Was so excited about doing it again. That was before he started talking. Storytelling was turned into boring lecturing and reading paragraphs after paragraphs from his books. Felt guilty about being so negative towards this man who despite all is extremely knowledgable... but after discussing subject of lack of passion for the beautiful stories of Krishna with wonderful priest and new friend and where he said "Welll you know Shantu, these westerners don't always understand the way we Indians do" wobbling his head from side to side and smiling, I don't feel guilty. he sucks. But the good side of it was that I got a whole extra hour of sleep today. Yay. There is always something positive in everything.
Ok, off to boring Satsang again.
