Ted Mosby's Drumroll


Sometimes you get this inexplicable urge to express some emotion, laughter or a little sadness/nostalgia, maybe. Like when you are watching a movie, you know it is all pre-scripted, but your mind still reacts to the scenes. Either you completely control your emotions or you aren't able to control them at all. Either way you have lost the "greater joy" in it.

All I say is, become aware of it and then let it flow, that is the beauty of it, that is the enlightened within you experiencing the pleasure of the senses; of the mind.
Such great would be the flavour of that nectar, that you wouldn't be able to hold that infinity within your finiteness. It will ooze out of you, drive you to madness, pull you into nothingness; it will find 'you'.

There is so much ecstasy in awareness that it will make you cry. Awareness will lead you to that ecstasy. The ecstasy would be so pure, so intense it would feel like pain, but you would not want it to stop. You will loose control and plunge inwards. And as soon as you want to regain control, awareness again would be the magic spell. It will  establish you back in the centre. 


Try to recall How I Met Your Mother's Episode "Drumroll! Please"? Where in Ted meets Victoria. And the conversation that unfolds is
Victoria - The best part of any first kiss is the lead up to it. The moment right before the lips touch. It's like a big drum roll. So, how about, tonight we just stick with the drum roll? 
Ted - Okay.. 
Victoria - But we cannot kiss.. 
Ted - Okay (and Music begins)
 Voila ! 

Thesaurus.com straight away puts enlightened and wise as synonyms of being "aware".

Sri Sri says - "Aversions and desires come into your mind, then how much you flow with them or how much you hold back is your wisdom."

and that "how much" comes from your awareness !

So here I am expressing my experiences and diving in them again; becoming more aware. 

Because I know that awareness will make the journey more thrilling than achieving the goal itself; than the "The End".

Do you follow what I said ?

BECOME AWARE


Love & Awareness

P.S. If you are thinking - but aware about what? then I'd suggest you to go do the YES!++ course..
