Astitva, Jonathan, Wyadeshwar, HeartBeats, Aryan, CastAway, Gappa... !

This saturday and sunday was very different..
Title contains the things that I have experienced over the weekend. Friday night I read a book by Sudha Murti 'Astitva'. Weekend morning started off with reading of Jonathan and was followed by a lunch(breakfast) at Wyadeshwar. Back to home with chinmay and sachin. In the evening I had been to a music program by 5 maestros 'HeartBeats'. This was fantastic, especially Zakir Husain and Shankar Mahadevan. I listened to Mendolin for the first time and E. Shriniwasan was superb. Show ended with bhajan 'Raghupati Raghav Rajaram' and this still is there in my ears. I was accompanied by Chinmay and as always he was busy with other stuff(than music).. :)
I had dinner at a place called 'Aryan' and 7-8 of us were there. Mumbai incidence is still very fresh in the minds of all the people. And was the main topic of discussion. As we were accompanied by Nikhil, rajkaran and latest 'Breaking News' - Narayan Rane's act, was being chewed too. :) But I really appreciate the AMOUNT of information that he has and manier times his views on this.
Sunday in the morning I visited a centre 'Success guru' for a seminar, and was interesting. The guy doing the ppt was interesting too. Lot of confidence, good aggressive approach. In the afternoon I saw 'CastAway' and the movie is just fabulous. Thought provoking. My parents were back by 9.30 and we had gappa till 12.30 and the vishay was 'Relatives' to be precise 'Relations'.

I am writing few details like we write when we start writing a diary(initial days - like writing routine), because I just wanted to summarize what all I have done/ with whom. For the most of the time over the weekend I was accompanied by many of my friends but I still wanted to be alone. I had this feeling very prominently and no negation too in this feeling. Other thing I noticed was I was trying to keep myself away from the March that we(JPYV) were having on sunday. Again I feel there was no negation in this.
And yes most of these experiences really were truly giving me sense of 'Anand'. Reading/Listening/Seeing - all ways of receiving covered over the weekend.

BE Strong

Few set-backs. Hard to digest, pan try to be positive, strong and aggressive.
Negative to Positive. I have to go this way.
