Dinesh Da and Bawa on Radio

Jai Gurudeva,

18 Dec. on the night show of Radio Mirchi 98.3 saw the witty visit to Radio Mirchi Station by Bawa and Dinesh,with RJ Suren  in the Night-roGen show.
Bawa N Dinesh in their usual style stole the show.......................
I give below a brief  account of what happened,as from where I heard the Interview.

You know on radio at night time most radio shows focus on relationships(????)
So when Bawa was asked to solve a relationship problem.
Bawa told a universal answer .An answer which applies to all cases in relationships.
He said the Secret of all Relationships lies in Giving more and expecting the least,otherwise it becomes like a business.
Tune diya to main doonga...
Bawa said it was more important to have faith and have the attitude of giving then you will not get carried away by the charm of others,you will not compare,for you have not given enough to compare.
When you feel you have given the best,then you compare,then giving stops,expectaation creeps and when that halt exceeds,relationship seems a problem and a search for other relationship starts.
To keep a realtionship give in more,dont expect,just feel you have still havent given enough and then comes more understanding in the relationship.

Another question asked that Bawa being an IITian how Art of Living helped to support him.
Bawa smiled.He said in Art of Living ,he is looked after so that needs are fulfilled.
Infact Being an Art of Living Teacher would be a viable option for people,an act that is so fulfilling.Bawa quoted further both of them now have travelled in 25 odd countries over the world and its been a funfillled and enriching experience for them.And has to for everyone who opts for so (becoming a Travelling Art of Living Teacher).

Why the need of a Guru?
Bawu said, said the very question tells you need one.
On a path,we need someone to help us deal properly when we get stuck.
A Guru offers an expertise solution to the most dire circumstance.
You need someone to giude on the path of life,someone who has experienced ,who knows how life works,that's the Guru.
Thaat's why the need of Guru,to travel on the path of life being safeguarded,warned everytime you go wrong on this path,to correct you on this path of life.

RJ Suren,We heard Some AOL teachers were there stuck in Taj during the whole incident.
Dinesh Da,They were among the first 100 ones who managed to come out.
Meanwhile in the Taj these teachers helped people heal,gave them blessings,taught them how to hold their bladder since they couldnt move out to reach the toilets,so see even in a more stress ridden environment,the teachers were doing their prime responsibility,helping out each other,just as every other Mumbaikar must have felt at that time.  

Bawa explained the meaning of Jai Gurudeva to Suren,and asked him to join in the course.
Naughtily Suren said I WILL TRY.

Hope you all got the best of Bawa.

Love,Swapnil

Generation X!!!!!?????

Jai Gurudev,
16 Dec.08 Evening time,i had given my Microprocessor paper and I left for home from college.
Unlike everyday today i decided to go walking from Bandra Station East after taking a train from Andheri to Bandra.
I happily left for home walking with many thoughts along.I made a quick call to ask Share Market Tips to my friend and continued the walk meanwhile.
I crossed in the Western Express Highway and went to the other side.
There's a small General Store on the other side of the road,where Homemade Beverages are served(what we call as Sarbat).
Normally i dont buy anything from this store but this unusual day i decided to buy the thing to quench my thirst.(Had to be a reason why i was there read on you will find.)
I had a nice look at the menu and finally chose to have Nimbu Sarbat considering my upset stomach.
I ordered one,it was pretty Paisa Vasool, chilled and at 5 bucks(not that costly) since it was satisfying.
As i was enjoying the Nimbu Sarbat,a boy came at the shop gave in 3 Rupees and said something softly,I was at a distance so could not make it out.
I thought may be he wanted some chocolates and the shopkeeper would surely give him some as sometime before a boy had asked for the same.
But to my utter shock,the shopkeeper handed the boy a CIGARETTE.I was for a moment shocked,but then thought,may be he must be purchasing for somebody else.
But he just seem to confirm my shock.He went ahead to the lighter stand and lit the cigarette.
It just as if time stood in for me at that time.
I said what!!!!! A Boy seemingly in 8th Grade smoking Cigar........I was aghast.......Shattered to see what the coming generation was going into.
I said to myself.Wake Up I need to tell him that what he was doing was wrong.
I finished my drink man it was total paisa vasool....and then went in to look where that boy went after lighting the cigar.
Just a few steps away,there he was smoking quietly hiding from the public,but clearly smoking like an adult.
Now this was something first time I came across.I had no idea what to tell him,but I knew I had to tell him,hello what you are doing is wrong...
So I went upto him and asked him "Are u Studying?" .He said "Yes". "And do your parents know that you smoke???".He boldly said"NOOO".
Then i told him that look man it's really really not good for the health,family and friends.He replied in between"I dont smoke regularly."
I told him that; my dear friend also said the same thing before ,but then secretly he got addicted to it and then we just lost him and his charm.
He dropped down the Cigarette. I saw that and was happy about it.He then was about to leave.
I dropped my hand over his shoulder and asked will you smoke again. He said"No".
He replied,"Thank you friend".But I felt that may be he needed to be told and convinced more so walked further along with him.
I inquired his whereabouts and got to know that he was staying in Near Ambedkar Nagar.Studying at Regal School,Colaba(I dont know that exists),Parents working there.
I asked him if there was any problem at home and was he therefore smoking? He said, no as such.
I told him that I really felt as you were my that friend who was not warned and who is therefore now not here on this planet earth.
I told him that,I and his(my friends) family really suffered the loss of a person who was once charming and most liked ,because of cigarettes.
So please please dont smoke.I dont want to lose you and your family,friend circle be affected by it.
Please for that my friend sake,please dont smoke and if anybody encourages you to drink,smoke,consume gutkha or something like that please dont get carried away by it,as you have no idea it completely ruins you,destroys your system, causes cancer,then you cannot do the things you like to do,but you just have to lie on the bed helpless.
If you still feel you are doing right thing by smoking you are thoroughly mistaken.
Its really going to ruin you afterwards.Please for the dear family and your friends stop smoking cigar if you are still having the thought.
And prevent others from doing so.stop every other person who is doing wrong .
Maybe that person is a teenager boy smoking cigar,a person littering or spitting just stop that person.
Be in good company avoid the company who tells you to adopt the bad ways. He kept nodding his head throughout my talk.
He then reminded me that he was getting late for home.
I reminded him dont ever think of smoking a cigar.
He said Yes and he went walking briskly.In few moments he disappeared in the crowd.
I had no idea why I had a conversation with him.Who that person was.And Why I was there to drink that Nimbu Sarbat.Perhaps for this boy to stop smoking.
God knows............mysterious are the ways of nature............Maybe it was the turning point of his life....
I have no idea why i had such a long and convincing conversation with that boy perhaps he required it......
Anyways I left for home......with more joy,feeling more refreshed.....
Thought I share this experience with you all.
I would love to know your reply.
Love,Swapnil
Jai Gurudev :-)
