Those devoted to illusion enter blind darkness. Into greater darkness enter those who are solely attached to knowledge.

of course, if u are deep. u can fall into dhyanam...anywhere!!!

As I was doing Pradakshinams (circumambulation) at one of my favourite Shiva temples, suddenly a sound disturbed me...the sound that's increasingly heard in Kerala now....the 'drrrrrrrrrraaaaaaang' sound of machine cutting trees! (this sound always pains me so deep...) And, it looked like the painful sound's going to continue for long.

This fool me, got so disturbed that I decided to go back to the meditation hall in my house as I was in a real mood to do some reflection/ meditation.

And, this time it was the big roaring sound of the massive machines, widening the national highway infront of my house. A big portion of my yard, which used to house so many birds on sapota, jackfruit and mango trees was already taken by the highway. The thumping n tremoring machine sounds made me tremble and I decided to go elsewhere.

I started for the backwaters nearby and I was shocked to find a big party going on there...playing loud frivolous music... Clearly it wasn't my day for meditation:)

Ofcourse, I knew all this, that's why since long, I try to meditate during nights, when the world sleeps. 

Now tell me that we can fall into dhyanam even in the midst of chaos...yes one can...but then..one need not really try..for those ones it just happens!!!
