Faith

Baba’s one year shraddh ceremony was observed on 7th Feb .It was Sunday. I do not know why but I still cannot feel baba as someone who is part of the dead world. I just cannot relate to such ceremonies. Specially baba who defied death to the last. Death was never part of baba’s vocabulary. I will always think of him as someone alive , full of life , full of love .I cannot understand how people can love such selflessly. People he loved the most hardly returned his love and care. But he could love them without any expectation. I can still remember his words “have faith,have faith”. I am such a sceptic .I cannot love even one person in that manner..I cannot trust even one person in that fashion. I have not been able to learn from him.
I discovered this very interesting site of Isha Yog society.

Sadhguru was on Aastha channel yesterday on the occasion of Mahasivaratri. Serendipity.His words made so much sense to me . I looked up their website . The Q&A section is interesting and very matter of fact. Here’s a sampler from Sadhguru’s sayings
“Faith is only for the innocent. Don’t believe that you are innocent. The moment the modern education has entered you, you have a thinking mind, a questioning mind, a doubting mind. With this you cannot follow the path of faith. Does it mean to say faith is impossible for you? No, but don’t start with something that you don’t have, start with something that you have right now.”

The society also runs rejuvenation camps in different places.
