...so it happens
But still there have been times when I really wish to cover certain assignments and people. This wish has been changing from civic issues, education, environment, transport or any area that I have been writing about. For the last five years, my personal wish to cover assignments has been Spirituality. Writing stories on Yoga, Meditation, interviewing spiritual gurus and masters who come to Chennai is something that I like to do. But never have I tried to work my way to get those assignments. They have happened.
The same was the case with meeting Sri Sri Ravishankar today. I learnt that he is meeting devotees in Chennai and that our newspaper was sending somebody to cover it. I just wished within myself that I would like to cover the programme.
It changed a few hands and ultimately I was assigned to cover. It turned out to be a fulfilling experience. I now have a book with me to read: Wisdom for the New Millennium by Sri Sri Ravishankar and an audio CD of his talks to listen to.
So I do realise that things can happen my way, without any shoving or pushing my way about. Just remain in silence and wish deeply.

Good for you.
So did you talk to him
Swahilyaji,
Vanakkam. Good to know about the coincidences with what we wish and what happens. For sometime I have been struck by a saying ( heard from a Guruji I think) - " Yath dhyayathi thath bhavathi ". And lo, I read from your blogs about the pleasant experience with Sri Sri...
@Ganesh: Yes. I had a brief meeting with him which I have reported in The Hindu. The article may appear soon in the city pages.
@Varadha: Yes. Same as Yad Bhavam Tad Bhavathi.
well said swaha, ultimately u'll not gain anything other than earning a bad name. nothing is worht that much. afterall, this is part of your life. just because u spend a considerable amount of time here, it doesn't mean its all ur life. to put it in ur words, it's just a 'Maya'.
well, to me, every assignment or office work is work and has to be done with dedication. may be we learn sumthing in every day's work. hoping u'll agree with wat i say, whenever i get dejected of my work, my husband says, just think that u r working for god, not for humans. because humans may overlook ur work. but god will reward u even if it may seem late for you. agreed buddy:)
Swahilya:
Can I give you my next topic? It is Cosmic intelligence.
Let me tell you about my view of the cosmic intelligence-people call him the preserver in hinduism I call him the cosmic intelligence.I believe that it is this cosmic intelligence that restores the world from entropy to orderliness. I would love to hear about your views!
