Be Spooked!!


44a2431b6125b914703845 - Strange Statues around the World

Chibu's write up on Sunderban ghosts reminded me of my own experience of  experiencing  the spook. 
It was years back, when Chibu was in class 9, during some exam time, when the light in our dining room was switched on at 3a.m.- my eyes opened automatically and I saw someone in white climbing up in Chibu's room .I didn't think that's unusual, 'cos come exam time and Chibu had unearthly hours of waking and sleeping! But after 15 minutes when I got up and decided to switch off the dining room light , I noticed that Chibu was fast asleep in his room! I called him to ask if he was down and his groggy reply was "no"! It was even  stranger that next morning he woke up with high fever and could not write his paper! 
I let this incident pass as just a coincidence till one night I while having my dinner I distinctly felt that there was someone standing behind me! It literally gave me goosebumps and I was really scared to turn around to see who or what it was! 
When I finally spoke about the presence to Bhaskar , he reluctantly admitted he had felt it too....a presence , a shadow moving from one room to another .....unexplained, unobtrusive! 
Honestly we din't know what to do, my part-time maid of course declared that she has seen a pair of feet walking and this "Bhooter Paa" made her bunk for the next one week! 
These sightings and feels slowly disappeared just as suddenly. 
Of course Buladidi burnt all kinds of stuff to ward off the one-who -creeps! 
All said and done it kind of made me feel once again that there are spirits that come and go- in this case it really wasn't harmful or malevolent but just made it's presence felt for some unknown reason. 
Of course this story became really popular with my friends and made its round in late night parties- dim light, 2pegs down and you are Spooked!!!

A holiday with self :)

A long overdue blog about the path that I was seeking , or did the path seek me out ? Over the years the sheen of belief was wearing off and I was beginning to question the master about the magic - about faith becoming commercial, about what Bhaskar stated, "This is all about money".  Packing my bags off and going solo isn't very uncommon in my life, but this time I was not on work per se. Checking-in into the Ashram, was on my bucket-list for ever-since, and it was an amazing experience. Despite the crowd, the ambiance just reverberated with a mix of reverence, energy , faith, hope, prayer - and questions too ! Like I mentioned before meditation was not about spiritual pyrotechnics, but a metaphor connected to life. Like the corner I chose had a vantage view of the stage and despite a stench that started emanating from the corner, I just could not leave that place, for the view that corner offered got me stuck there. Life is like that, we are often stuck in the rut , ...

The 3 men in my life!

That's a strange caption I chose ! But for me,  am in a sentimental nostalgic mood - It's not easy for me to watch, as the first man around whom my world revolved stumble, totter and be spaced out ! Of course his spirit is still strong and I ensure that he is never left alone or lonely ,but I guess I can't...in the end he is alone with his thoughts! Of course I am talking of Baba ! He still is my priority at times over Bhaskar , who suffers silently . Baba and Bhaskar can still be jealous over each other when I buy something for one and leave the other out. So it has been a habit now to buy 2 identical things for the two, cos I know they will end up comparing ! The third one is going to be 21 in two days time ! And aren't I glad that he has grown up ! I was not really the best of smoochie-woochie -baby -talkie mothers ! I guess that's the reason why Chibu still feels embarrassed when hugged ! But at times I am amazed that 21 years flew by...I still can remember ...

Morning bells are ringing ......

Heidi lived in Alps with her Alms uncle - I read this story in a book that was called The Big Big Story Book and it had a compilation of amazing stories that were my first foray into the world of English story books. Recently on a long flight I watched the movie much to delight of the young steward who was our attendant that night. My first glimpse of the Alps was from our flight ...the dawn breaking to spread the orange hues over the snowy terrain...looked mesmerizing even to someone who is not too fond of the mountains. Switzerland was beautiful, with its manicured terrain and flowers like pretty maids all in a row, picture perfect setting and breathtaking, like a touch me not porcelain beauty. Coming from my "elo melo" city I wondered how people managed to keep a country so organized , I have trouble keeping my room in ship shape...... No, I would not like to live there ......it's too distant and too cold ,but what I will carry in my heart is  the awesome time .......
