第11天: 11th oct. airport of Bhuj
Many things happening and many wonderful!
I arrived in airport 5.30-7.00am in a better autoroute, talking to father and son, who is linked in any social media and being a young handsome photographer, told me his mother is 44 same age as me, he is 21; got two chai tea which is boiled with powder that I should buy when back home;
Send first photos of WeChat and regards to XW who is first person to ask my status which is nice knowing.
I should constrain myself from posting more without value to others.
It should be one hour more in the hall but I did not know the session finishing at 6.30 still, but ok, what better choice I could take, with the flight booked yesterday after having mobile phone back, it was a bit small drama, first thinking about sharing taxi with girls, then lift up with local girl, then called Rajiv to say I am coming then I am coming, he is not convenient and also helping, all ok since I do whatever it happens; I want to get out of the center no matter how much I have shifted my view on vipassana, now I am using it to replace Shambhavi which was never the case until the last day.
This morning still wake up at 2am, doing yoga, which will not be replaced, tks god. Then cleaning and going to hall. The quietness of temple is nice but I need go back to real world.
Yesterday it is interesting:
I saw a big lizard crossing the road, big like a fox.
Took the girls back to my room, sharing with them probiotics they all like it; Jane has a camera to make a record which is nice, asking them if their husband likes what they do: yes, they push them to be better; a lot of ladies who look seriously turn out very nice and oral spoken, but 3 can speak English, one is teacher, another business woman, then nutritionist; others are housewives, nurses etc. Quite interesting group, I start liking them and did not see them properly.
The young girl is very proactive to talk to me, who said I am 24 which fills my ego, I like what she thinks. Indian women did too much work, maybe, they look older. I saw photo of mother of photographer, can not be same age.
I booked hotel a simple one to better balance with other simple places I stayed; replied a few work issues, try to do least, let them handle what they can.
Still I feel the heaviness on my left chest when dealing with work; T said as long as phone on hand, all energy changed; I am eager to have the phone, not escaping from it.
Bought a book on discourse which I find inspirational the guy in library is same driver this morning, he is very happy and also the doorman is so helpful and liking me a lot.
U find more people working in NGO, a girl to give introductions said she has worked here for 5 years, no paid, earning money with her own job, chose to live a secluded single life all her rest of life. Sheetal has been so helpful and she said she is running her own NGO, volunteering the whole time, being so helpful to me, with kindness.
All teachers not paid, doing volunteer.
I studies Goenka biography and understand he is hindu in the past, happened to meet up his teacher due to his headaches, from a rich business family and lost everything when Burma government took it all, but he is ok with equanimity after vipassana then moving to India to spread, seems first people randomly with his parents, 12 others, but it turns out more and more, then people helping him first center, which are people they have meditated in last many lives.
On the plane:
We have 1.15pm not moving group meditation which is easy, afterward picking up the phone and try to figure out logistics, arranging two other girls car, chatting with the ladies, suddenly they are all alive and happy, old ones are not with us; only healthier and Younger. I did ask J&T on question of meditation during the course, T is saying how happy she is, some people might feel real happy; I was a bit impatient towards the metta part which is so long, G loves chanting so much etc. Now I figure out it might be some hidden karma coming out to the surface.
Phone keeps me busy until evening session 6-7 which is good for sensation, the head helps, I did not eat much during lunch as it looks like Indian 丸子,not great food; discourse is nice as well G did a short talk on service, I am not ready for that yet; he asked to do 2 hours per day then 10 days per year, ideally a service course, I will see how this develops in the future; after all I did not think I will adapt two hours meditation in my life; I was debating on alcohol since it is so clear no intoxicants! I just not sure how I can escape the occasions of necessary social drink, which I do not know the limit; but again, never predict future.
Come back my place, I figure out not much Delhi welcome which I will do my own stuff, anyhow it would not be better other options. Let me be alone for two days is good for reflecting.
It does reflect a spiritual surgery per say, it shakes some of my points, even all the theories I knew in the past, but i was not ready to dip in, now more less I am ready; it is long process, but I have nothing else to do more meaningful than taking good care of soul.
Got acceptance of DBA, not much joy, I did ask myself doing so it is ego or something I want to do; I do want a DBA, it seems Lausanne makes most sense; move along and I can see things got shaking up now, if it is not because I thought boring last year, I would not do vipassana, the comping Yatra and DBA.
Talking about patience, temper, I did feel a bit upset when security lady took away my mini Swiss knife, which I have not used it once yet. Well it is a test, vipassana does not get us perfect or immediately perfect, but at least we are aware; like my discomfort sitting in metta part, my motion in security part; also Rajiv is not doing any nice gesture, which I expect to do business discussion with him on India market, could be ideal if both China and India formed viva business, then with Switzerland and New York in connection! The most dramatic difference is India and Switzerland I like both.
So lady back to the test of Vipassana in daily life, looking forward.
