Yesterday was the last day of the AOL course. Each of us had to get a gift for another person in the class. The receiver’s identity stayed unknown till yesterday. I thought of printing a favourite poem, a pair of gloves, a woollen cap… nothing appeared convincing. Finally, I got a plant from Kroger’s for the unknown friend, managed to buy a palm for apna ghar too. I hope this one doesn’t die on me, like the last guy… He just dried up, almost as if he didn’t like the place or something… Pinch keeps telling me that I should have talked to him…:)
Pinch said that he’d use the poem idea. Finally, we ended up buying a bag of spinach as his gift(high-praana stuff!) and one bag for Abhay.
Yesterday’s activities included some games, some music, a promise to have a reunion after our 40-day ritual was done, sometime 18 April. My plant went to Shurvari, Navin’s ‘Forrest Gump’ came to me, Pinchoo’s spinach bag went to Atamji and surprises! Atamji’s book by J.P. Vaswani came to Pinch…
Did the Kriya this morning, dunno if I really lapsed into the deep state that Abhay talked about.. I felt almost semi-comatose and as if I awoke from some stupor…
There’s one thing, though… I’ve been sleeping MUCH better after I’ve started the Kriya and also I can do with much lesser sleep… 5.5 hours seemed enough this morning. I hope the 40 day practice bears some fruit…
This evening is dinner at Mithunda’s home… What do I wear?

Really, DD.. At one point, I felt as if I couldn’t even place where I was… But I wasn’t asleep, I know that for sure… A feeling of being .. I can’t really articulate. Anyways, as my practice continues, the results will get clearer, I guess..
