AOL GERMANY 4 DAYS OF SILENCE AND GURU PURNIMA: BEST BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION – 1 August 2005

Notes:
1 – Getting cornrows at Tasha’s, white boys having a fight in the rain bullying one of the buddies etc. Oh yeah the Antonia who was after me was getting pissed coz Tasha had to do some rows again so he musta dissed her and left. Ronny (her lil boy) wont too happy with that so after the dude reached downstairs Ronny started throwing water at him and taunting him to cross the line again… man it was jokes. Dude ended up coming back so Ronny grabbed the broom and started swinging like a mad boy. Anyway it was all fun and jokes.
2 – Got my first wedding invite from Madhvi!!! In case we go ahead with the stag thing on the same dates sorry babes. Wedding or stag? Hard to decide hehehe.
3 – Since I was leaving I got Arti to replace me at work for a week.

!AOL OR BUST!
Wednesday 20th:
Half day at work. Teach Arti usual procedures etc. Leave for airport with Anup, Ameet and Meghna. Get to airport get tired of Ameet so hang with these other ladies that were playing ‘travelling guitars’, learnt to strum bla bla bla. Get to Baden Baden (Germany), get bus to Bad Antogast, had a satsang (spiritual sing-along) on the way. This is where the hate for my phone finally reached its limit coz I wanted to get in touch with Dilesh and it just freaking tripping! Pole Dilu. Yo at the ashram there were so manyyyyy hotties! Good thing this retreat was like a non-toxic Woodstock thing.

Thursday 21st:
I first got Abhyanga done (ayurvedic massage with 2 women doing the same thing equally on both sides), too much detail? I have not even begun about the massage baby! Now Moneeq came to me and she’s like hope you don’t mind two women massaging you. I was like that’s the only was I’mma having it! Somehow she was told I asked for two men. ARE YOU OUT YOUR MIND! So I’m shown to the room and then told to strip and wear nothing but something that looked like a doctors face mask. Not on my face, let’s just say my crotch had a nice lil hammock. The bits I was worried about were these intervals when my crotch hammock felt… um… taut. Since it was also Guru Purnima we had a Maha Kriya (gangsta meditation) and the satsangs are always lively man, folks dancing and all… I love it. Notes: My camera is out of batteries and there’s so many honeys, hills, trees, etcs.

Friday 22nd:
This was our break between Purnima and the Advance course so went shopping for batters. Checked out the area codes and boy oh boy that area is so gorgeous. Even had houses or buildings with matching flowers on the windows. Bonding with folks, usual wicked satsang and seva (service). The satsang rocked more coz of the Polish crew I was with. Darek (once the builtest body builder in Poland) just made my day coz he had his instruments and his fine wife shared her maraca with me. Plus you just have to see Darek in a satsang man. Wish I could load the videos somewhere.

Saturday 23rd:
Usual meditations only this time it was too fit. After that Ameet got my titties in a knot. Here’s how it goes… I had this MILF smoking buddy and this time her buddy asked me if I had hashish as a joke. I tell Ameet and usual opinions and judgements ‘you see what kind of image you portray’, ‘wearing Tusker shirts to such things’. I was like ‘oh yeah I forgot you’re here to point out everyone’s covers before reading their story’ then ran to my non-UK area codes. Lol man lucky this was the day we had to go into silence. 4 days of no talking and I planned to cherish it every lil bit. Day was over so back to Ashram for seva with the Croatian crew.

Sunday 24th:
MEDITATIONS ON THE HIZZIE MAN! And usual routine walks, admiring hills and houses and nature and fruits and girls. Lol since we were in silence we were allowed to write botherations and questions. One lady wrote something about too hard to stop admiring men. Guruji was like admire on the breaks but best admire after the 4 days of silence, till then get down to bid’ness. Oh this was the night when the Denmark dude made enough noise in the kitchen, seva time. Since his crew was from jail I guess they had experience with kitchen work coz hey may have cling-clanged our ears out but he sure was fast. Croatian dude called him Superman.

Monday 25th:
We did funny practices today. Don’t wanna talk about it but everyone was like this Advance course is so chilled out, plus the funny games were never in the other programs. Well I got news, after Silver Jubilee AOL is gonna evolve. Guruji never asked for anything but this time he was really emphasizing how bad he wants as many Earthlings done with at least the Basic Course. All I’m gonna say is don’t miss the AOL train coz you may see a big difference after the course but man on man what a difference I just 2 years on. Kinda like seeing someone lose weight if you know how that goes. Back to Monday – They changed the timetable for Seva coz there were complains about working late and bla. This means lunch Seva at Oppenau!!! Yay! Lunch – seva, dinner – seva, got kicked out for doing too much so went to the Ashram and did more lol. You don’t realize how much happiness/fun/jokes/props/etc there is in seva till you do it. YOOO GURUJI SERVED ME FOOD!!! Folks went nuts with the woman in front of me, Sarojben even pounced on the soup. As for me he also took out a hair from my soup which seemed very sacred to Anup. Personally I find all that superficial but gotta be sensitive to others ideals so I gave Anup a spoon of the ‘blessed’ soup. Guruji blesses all the food anyway… oh well. We were having Satsang and nearly everyone dances/claps or sings along… I got so into it I forgot about the not talking bit and went up to Neeraj ‘do you know Garba’. Coz we can only sing and not talk and coz of the situation we cracked the hell up!

Tuesday 26th:
Today’s meditation just did it. I’mma try and word it… I got in the usual trance state bla and bla. It was the most disturbing meditation physically coz some people decided to go for a pee break and instead of jumping over my feet they be kicking and crap. But at the same time was I was feeling subconsciously/mentally/emotionally/in spirit/whatever… it was not the feeling a bliss but the feeling that I’d become bliss… hard to imagine that but I felt the physical kicks on the body but these waves of what I was on some other medium … DOES ANYONE GET THIS!!! I’M DYING TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE!!! After this I so wanted to get back in that state… kept questioning why I couldn’t, just then I see this moth trying to get out of the kitchen but banging on the window glass. DEEP AY? Or maybe there was something extra in my tea hehehe. So like the silence make you think and think and question and question. First the questions are small time (why does Ameet think his opinions are so big and why he gotta mess my head with not accepting me for me), then they go way way bigger till a couple of folks cried. Of course there were random thoughts that would come at intervals (how and where did they get all those slugs for the movie Slugs?). Silence ended today for most, I just wanted to stay in it but I just had to take pictures with some of the hotties and my new Worldwide buddies! Plus the kids just finished their course and they came over to perform which my and my new hip-hop buddy hyped them to sing. Note: Song was something like Celebration, Meditation, Elevation. Changed the words to Salivation, Medication, Elevation. No one could tell the difference. Yeah I know … cheap thrill. We were hyping the kids coz they sucked but showed courage.

Wednesday 27th:
Seva, lil meditation, more seva and we’re FREE!! I headed to the city again checked out the wicked church with Rajvir and em, her bud got me ice-cream coz it was HOT! Since everyone was packing and I had like 3 hours to kill… MORE SEVA!!! Only this time one of the teachers started slave driving us.
Note: All this seva made me realize how much I’ve neglected exercise. After all that seva I had to rest so I chilled with these
Lithuanians/Ukrainians/Russians who were having satsangs in their lingo first then Sanskrit so I could join. Dude spotted an eagle circling above us… wow. Just a small wow though. Get in the bus, more satsang, sleep, get to airport, have a picnic in the middle of the waiting area. Get through security with some curious eyes. Meet this crew of bikers. Everyone plans to sing me Happy Birthday in the plane… doesn’t happen. Instead get pulled to the side when we reach Stanstead. See the lady asked me if I had immigration problems or if I got asked that a lot. First question was yes, second’s answer was no but I just said NO straight up. So while I was waiting for them to do their checks and all I thought I’d go through my digi cam pics.
Then Shorty or Anup call. Basically that just put me in my hot water coz there was a big sign stating that it’s forbidden to take pictures in the control area and no mobile phones are to be used. In my head I was like ‘is this gonna happen all the time?’. Hell if they sent me back this time I’d be in Germany and I have no probs with that. Anup gave me his tambourine as a present, had a wicked SATSANG AGAIN and knowledge session while he dropped us home. Get home, Lalji’s bro has come and somehow my duvet and pillow were missing. I couldn’t care had to sleep so used to the AOL shoal I got. Froze my bootie middle of the night so wore couple of sweats and a jacket and knocked out again.

Thursday 28th My Birthday:
Washed, ironed, cleaned up, felt like eating Chicken Kiev so Puj and Shorty hooked me up. Went for a movie, got home, FINALLY FINISHED Prince of Persia. And good night.

!AOL NOTES!
1 – Pictures: I Shall be loading the pictures on my sandobiaz site to wacha-wachaout! If you’re not already a member just holla and I’ll hit you back with an invite.
2 – Peoples: 653 people from all over the world were there and I wont planning to hang with the UK crew that I knew so I did something new. Got enough contacts and I plan to use them all coz I wanna see it all.
3 – Seva: Normally I did the late seva which they stopped after a few days coz reaching Ashram late and then waking up early and all but trust me Guruji said there’s so much happiness in doing Seva (maybe coz it connects with his main main main tool for AOL – Stay in the present). I don’t know, whatever man, my body was drained from the day but doing Seva just brought that JOY. Then again coz I like to earn my props maybe it was coz I liked being called a Seva Warrior and the pat on my back. MORE LATER

Hollow & Empty
So Hum
