I Met Sadhguru!!

A magic! A magic! 
This is one of the most unforgettable moments in my life.


I saw sadhguru on April 5 2012 among 350 people!! I held his hands at 7P.M and also got his blessings by touching his feet!!


SadhGuru  had come to Shishya school in Adyar for Kit Thomas Oration an annual event .The KIT Thomas Oration is an annual event held in April to commemorate the memory of the founder Mr. K.I.Thomas. An eminent speaker is invited to address the senior students, the faculty, parents and the public on different issues, mainly pertaining to education. 


This year it was  Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev


The audience were spell bound by his lively interactive talk on Education . At the end of the speech ,when a small boy went to get his autograph ,I too joined him.
I held sadhguru's hand and asked him "Can I hold your hands?"he replied to me ,"If you hold my hands ,how can I go?"


I became so excited and jumped in joy. 
A joy I had rarely experienced in the past years.
I did not even wash my hands that whole night.I did not sleep well.I was just recollecting those blissful moments!
Thank you sadhguru.
Thank you so much for your response!

Maladihalli Swamy - A Man of Difference



In a sleepy hamlet Malladihalli, resided a renowned person called Shri Raghavendra Swamiji, more popularly known as ‘Malladihalli Swamiji.

He was born in Kerala in 1890 and his original name was Kumaraswamy.
When he died he was 106 years old.
Due to intense pressure of his devotees, he wrote his autobiography “Jolige Pawada” in 1993, in which he has documented his life history from memory of the last over hundred years.
He was clean shaved person with a slight bent and he wore small grey shorts.
He walked so briskly, that many had to run to catch up with him.
He would start his day at 3 a.m.and needed just four hours of sleep everyday.

Swamiji says:
"Yoga is not doing a few postures.
I have seen some people who have a wonderful body, which can bend in so many ways, but they cannot bend so many vices in their life. They can hold their breath until eternity, but they cannot hold their greed, arrogance even to a small degree! If you can inculcate the good habits, even if you do not regularly practice Yoga, you are a winner in life after all. Keep smiling as you always do! "

Swamiji had done all his schooling in Kundapur.
His association with Dr. K. Shivaram Karanth, a Mangalorean, at Amba Prasaditha Nataka (Drama) Company at Tumkur (east of Mangalore)got him a clerical job in the Drama Company itself.
He was entrusted with the ticket sales and disbursement of salaries/wages to the Company’s staff.
As a school boy he participated and acted in many Dramas, Yakshagana and Thala Maddale.
