The progress....

As I progressed with my Buddhist affirmations and negations with the associated breathing techniques and listened to the philosophy and lucid flow of words of my first formal spiritual guru, I started feeling a mysterious presence in my life. During my meditation sessions, I could really feel a warm Energy with me....and felt it was my imagination and let it pass.....but unbelievable but true was my v first experience of another world. We had gone to a farm close to Mumbai to visit my husband's relatives. While my core was melancholy, exterior a pretence of harmony....this was the usual story of my life really and strangely, I had accepted it as a way of life. I went for a walk early in the morning, the fields were calling out to me.....I sat in a field to meditate and within seconds experienced the most beautiful hue I had ever seen, a golden hue with splashes of orange! The experience filled me with tranquility but flashed by in what seemed seconds. I came out of the state and as I stood up, a snake passed me by! Was it protection by this Energy....to keep me safe from any harm? I was rather overwhelmed by this episode.
Towards the end of my Buddhist Course, I spoke to my guide about these on-going little experiences of another world.....what he said was beyond belief.....he said that this was just the beginning and a lot more was in store....and I must flow along!
Meanwhile, the turmoil was building up, my two little kids vulnerable and sweet and needed me around....I don't want to delve into the ensuing fears with regard to these two innocent beings I had borne...but, yes! The momentum was building up.....transformation is possible due to dramatic events....or else one lives skimming the surface of Life.....
