back to book writing... 24/7/365 LOVE PARTY

what is the party?
all the parties have two main live ingredients 1-host 2-guest ,most of the time guests are many more in nos. than host-in rare unfortunate situation it is other way around.
most of the parties have tasty and now a days very decorative food to eat-nice ambiance at venue-and very loud but good music which fills your heart to dance where expert in dancing enjoy more while non expert satisfy them selves while watching those dancing experts.,and of course every one comes in good attire with smile on their faces.
now the party which i mentioned above usually lasts any where from three hours to three days in some longer event like marriage,but it does end with some good and not so good memories and for sure lot of exhaustion on both the guests as well as hosts-more on host which invariably brings some sickness with it.it means the drain follows the gain for sure - even though no one wants drain but only gain which is not possible.
now the party which our title suggests is sort of on going long...long party which will have almost every thing that i mentioned in regular parties but all the gain will be very casual and relaxed with very few bed memories followed by same casual and relaxed drain which is not unwanted but anticipated,planned and gladly excepted and that is the beauty of it and then and only than it can last as long as you want it to last like 24/7/365 days.
most of the sensible people would prefer casual and relaxed party with like minded close friends and families as compared to larger than life party with so many strangers and lot of artificiality in every thing which is very short lived .
let us start exploring that idea of 24/7/365 days party and implement it to see how it works starting tomorrow....
until than ...have party

who am i ?
the real me is consciousness embodied in a person called harshad(harry) which name was given to my body by my father ramniklal shah and mother gajara doshi when the consciousness assumed the physical body-so now onwards it will be referred as i by me for the practical purpose,who was born on June 10-1948.at the town called mahuva- situated in mid west part(Gujarat state) of India.my father/mother were very religious following Jainism established and carried on by the chain of 24-tirthankars(god).
After my mother passed away when i was about 4 or 5years old -my father moved to bombay with me ,my sister and his 2nd.wife-my new mother who is 85years old now and staying with me until today since i was 5.
I finished the school and graduated in college with chemistry and biology in 1971.,and started business instead of working for some one as i was very clear not to let go my freedom and creativity by working for some one to earn my livelihood. as i was always sincere to find out the truth of the life and thus began the spiritual journey which was catalysis by osho in the beginning years followed by j.Krishnamurti with lots of reading about various spiritual masters and started meditating on my inner everyday and also practicing TRATAK(gazing meditation to increase focusing power) .
while meditating in the evening around 5 of February 14 th.1974 ,suddenly my whole inner was fully lighted with soothing flow of energy instead of black darkness which used to be there whenever i watched within me meditating.
Since than until today always there is proportionate light within while i am in SAMADHI(timelessness state of mind) almost everyday.
At present i am staying at Edison town in new jersey state of U.S.A.where i migrated before 24 years from India and living with my wife(58) ,son(28),daughter (19) and mom(85),having few properties generating income for the whole family to live decent life with all the freedom to do what i want to do with my life .
planing to start the activities of Hriday Ashram at all my properties gradually starting first at mount Pocono-PA.

i was waiting for web site to be ready and published-which is done now and i am getting ready to start new venture of my life to conduct meditation seminars on regular basis every month.this is a shift of gear for the journey of my life towards spirituality where i will try to share what i have been enjoying-the flow of fresh energy from within as and when needed which eliminates stress or grief if present due to circumstances or any reason just like a magic wand.so it will be a new play for me to invite people and talk to them about this magic lamp and its presence in every live body and how to unveil that treasure covered under the dust of conditioned mind.
Just the thought of this journey excites me and it is exhilarating-wow!!!
hope to see you soon and let us begin this extra ordinary venture.
thanks

Aa haa !!! life is so wonderful-beautiful and enjoyable for me and could be so for every one if they are sincere to have it-
on the surface almost all of the people will say off course they want it but very few has deep sincerity to achieve it ,as they are so much occupied in fulfilling their temporary need one after another without realising or questioning one's self about the very existence of their being which is so pure and always oozing that infinite energy if not covered by the shallow thoughts of mind which has its limited use to safe guard the physical body and some temporary physical needs that needs to be fulfilled.
The reason very few people become sincere about this everlasting joy is that they have not come across some one real who is so joyous all the time and even if they are around or near them ,they are unable to notice them because they are so much occupied solving their daily problems and for the same reason when some one is enlightened -in the beginning he does not want to awake any one as he knows that his words are falling on deaf ears but as the time passes he realises that there are some half awake people who could be awakened if they are kept together with the enlightened masters(sat sang), and the irony is that those sleepy people are unable to find those masters which is natural,so the best thing to do is trust your heart while following some one and leave all the logic and rationality of the mind behind you,like the ashes of the past and be very receptive to the blessings of the nature showering on you through the masters who are purer medium for that.
To get this blessings and the taste of nectar ,no material possession or great recognition in the society will ever help you as all the outer achievements are temporary and dependent on all the outer agents which keeps on changing all the time and so the achievements relying on them falls apart so easily and quickly.
The inner peace and joy i am talking about is beyond the reach of the intellect so do not try to envision through your mind as it is radically different and can be felt only through heart .
for this radical change to happen in your life ,please come to Hriday Ashram and we will explore it together.
love.

THIS POST IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK BECAUSE THAT UNIVERSAL ETERNAL LOVE NEEDS SPACE TO FLOW FREELY.

43-8am

after a big break i am glad to resume writing-it is beautiful weather out there today after rain and dark in last couple of days-so i will have a fresh air walking through trees and green lawns which becomes meditative if your mind does not wander some where else other than here and now.our mind is so much conditioned with the thinking pattern that we almost forget to go beyond that thinking process and try to feel that sweet present moment and the surprises it offers every minute of our life ,given a little chance to the present moment without the interfearence of the mind we could feel all the blessings being showered on us every time -ofcourse we have to be fully alert while witnessing every thing with in and with out including thoughts arising and passing on its own.
sorry, something came up ,so i have to leave it here. more next time.
love

Mount Pocono-10am
Mind an extra ordinary thing existing in human physical body ,capable of creating any thing and all the things on this earth that it can possibly think-be it good or bed.let us try to explore little more than usual thinking from the surface..
generally we use mind to do our daily activities necessary for life to continue with least hardship and to do that mind's cultivation and conditioning plays major role in carring out those activities ,than there is another level of mind which tries to go deeper in to things which fascinates it or impresses it ,either to get aquainted with those things ,be it alive or non alive and in most cases to posses it ultimately thinking that now it can have all the excitement/happiness from it as and when needed and for that possesion ,it starts working towards that goal for achievement in which it may or may not succeed .if it succeed very soon it realises that it is not that great the way it thought while begening the journey for the same and gradually looses interest in what ever is achieved and finds something else that seems to be more promising than the previous achievement and the same story repeats more or less each time and if it does not succeed it feels bed and the life becomes miserable.so either way mind is restless and spends all the energy towards some future achievements in the hope that it will solve all the problems of life and joyful life will begin to continue for ever without realising that the very process of using the present moments for the future achievements which is projected from the past is nothing but the ashes left over from the live burning of present moments of that period which is time and any thing originating from the left over ashes can never have that freshness and purity which is a real life.so the ultimate result is never satisfactory to become quite and cool to enjoy the life as is with all its beauty and vastness thus that vicious circle keeps on going until one breaks out of it towards the radical journey which is beyond time and rhymes with life in every moments.
