hi friends, I had an interesting week , wherein I learnt  a wonderful form of meditation, so simple and so effective, a totally new experience altogether. It is called anapanasati meditation, that is observing the breathing in and breathing out. We did it for an hour with my mom, dad, sis, with the guru and his wife. My sis saw colours, purple and blue and a spiral formation. I felt pulled toeards one side and could feel myself moving. I was feeling v refreshed after it and could even feel something on my neck, as though it was stretched out for a foot or so. And with my sis's help, I laid javvarasi vadam on th terrace, after so many years, the last time I made that was around 18 yrs before, when I was a housewife, with only one kid. Unfortunately, it was a v cloudy day and I hope that it would dry out well tomorrow. I got tremendous self satisfaction doing these, when I imagined how much the famuly would enjoy the crunchy vadams! So much for today, trying for a writing assignment too, that should prove lucrative. Bought myself a half-patiala suit and aching to wear it,

Signing off,

Devika. Have a grt weekend friends
