Hello Friends
Now almost a year
passed to work here in Tamilnadu and in this company. So here I come to evoke
some pages of my life in TamilNadu. It is wrong to say that my 1year in this
company was very good and happy, everything is good and bla bla… there were
some problems with some but one who learn how to adjust and defend oneself can
move further and this is exactly what I have done I made myself secure in every
situation, done my work honestly and be what am I. I didn't change myself for
others. And now I am enjoying benefits of it. Well that’s enough now ;)
After came here from the start I was trying to
find some Vipassana meditator who organize the 1day course on every Sunday. But
my bad luck I found none, there are some meditators in Pondicherry but they
don’t organize one day course and it Its shame that here in Pondicherry n
Tamilnadu not much center except one in Chennai and in now in Madurai. But one
can get a lot of temples of every GOD in each n every city :). Talking about Climate,
no winter, no monsoon, that time i crave for monsoon like DhammaGiri...
DhammaGiri is best place to enjoy monsoon :). 24hrs raining for full
4month...
In the mid of July I
visited Kanykumari and Rameswaram. as you may be know kanyakumari is end of
South in India's map. There I visited a temple of kanyakumari goddesses
and shocked when Priest/pujari told me that men can only enter after
removing there upper cloth :), its ritual in some/may be most temples in
tamilnadu..Later on we visited other site seeing places such as Thiruvanamalai
statue in Sea. One thing is for sure there is no comparison to nature’s beauty
when I saw the point where 3sea’s meet, viz.. Indian sea, Bengal sea and
Arabian sea. Those tides with full energy make a milky appearance in sea was
just awesome.

Rameswaram See that Srilanka Border
Rameswaram is place
related to epic Ramayana. First time I went inside any temple and follow the one
ritual’s which is bathing with water from different wells (kumbh/kua). Don’t
think that how come this atheist did that I dident do for ritual or I do not
believe in something. but I did for fun to take bath from almost 30-40
different wells, it was really fun. During site seeing, In one temple of
Hanuman I saw that stone which mentioned in Ramayana, the bridge of stone
floating on sea from India to Srilanka. That heavy stone really floats. I don’t
know science behind that stone, but it really floats ;).
Also in Dec. I went to
Kodaikanal hill station its indeed The Prince of Hill Station. It feel that I
am god who is seeing this earth from above the cloud. Once again I can say that
there is no comparison for natures beauty. After kodaikanl we went to Madurai.
In there we went to Minakshi Temple. It was good temple to see but I was shock
by reading inside the temple that “NON HINDUS ARE NOT ALLOWED INSIDE THIS BOUNDARY I dident get the meaning of this sentence. Whether it is mean for
Dalits in India/ those foreigners who visited that temple/for any Muslim. This
was shock for me that caste-ism is still in India so publicly.
Well talking about city,
It nice city; we walk almost whole city.

About my Vipassana
practice. It’s hard to maintain practice daily while work but i m doing it in
my different way :). Like meditating in car while daily short journey etc :).
and visiting to catholic ashram as they are meditators. They allow me to
meditate in their DhammaHall whenever I went there for short time. And
fill the gap by doing self course in my room.
