Hello again,
This is my new addition to my blog.I am a moderate reader , reading mostly articles on spirituality. During my time at work , I work, plus , whenever i get free time , i browse cnn , bbc , and other papers such as timesofindia and deccan herald.
I have found out through spirituality, praying to amma and chanting that I have been misguided for a long time. I remember that I was religious during my childhood and I used to take a lot of interest in god and religion. But I had lots of vasanas(latent tendencies) . I realized this now, after coming to amritapuri when most of my vasanas started dropping off. This does not mean , that I am free of vasanas. I do have more vasanas to shed, but amma is doing it slowly,carefully.I think I am being purified as amma pulls me close to her.I think a lot of latent problems (my prarabdhas-karma from past lives , is being cleansed). This way i become as purified as amma.I am not saying I am amma, but the divine mother is working on us , cleansing us , removing obstacles from our path, making us become pure like her.
Back to me being misguided, I remember my mom saying that she went to see Amma in 1984. That was , when I was a 9 year old boy. After that there was no connection with Amma, until again in 2000, when I went to the USA.I met amma there in the US , every year until my return in 2008. Coming back to the misguided part, I dont recall getting any spiritual instructions , nor doing anything to appease god,even though I was weak.I recall during my earlier days , I was vegetarian on saturdays, and was eating fish and chicken , until i stopped eating non-vegetarian food completely in the 2000s.I recall going to temples on saturday, the day i used to eat vegetarian food only. I did this for quite a while, before I entered engineering college. Even during my college days , I used to eat a lot of fish and chicken , but in 2000, I stopped eating chicken.I was only eating fish then.Then I remember in 2004 when my mom came down to the US, I stopped fish.My turnaround from non-veg food was complete.
