Day 6 was the final day of the basic course. We were little upset that this beautiful course has come to an end. Nevertheless we were all happy that we had a great course of life. We were asked to bring some fruits and a gift. They had not revealed the reason to bring the gift. This day started bit early as there were few other things to cover this day. We all came on time. They had a small book exhibition where I purchased few books - "Celebrating silence" and "Celebrating love". Both these books are very nice. Turn any page, you will learn something that is worth for your life.
Day 6 also started with some warm up exercises and yogasanas. Then we had a brief knowledge session. The knowledge session started of with asking answers for 3 home work questions asked on day 4:
- Who are you?
- What are you?
- Where are you?
Again very cryptic questions. I will leave it to you to think it over. I am in search of those as well. These are some questions which we all need to think daily to understand our true purpose of life.
After this we all did Ujjayi Pranayama and Bhastrika Pranayama in Vajrasana. These were the prerequisites for Sudarshan Kriya. On Day 6, I had come with the determined mind that I will experience the short kriya with the same enthusiam. Sudarshan kriya started and this time as I had made up mind, the short kriya was equally amazing. I experienced the unique thing in this as well. The energy flow was amazing after the kriya.
We then had a small satsang where we all did some bhajans which was good. Then we were all told to laugh for sometime :). This was very good relaxing stuff. We were all laughing continuously for some 15 or 20 minutes. Whole body was relaxed after this. Then we were asked to take out the gift that we had brought to the class and start running and randomly exchange the gifts with the person next to us and we did that for few minutes and finally our teacher told us that the gift that you got is for you :). By this time volunteers had prepared fruit salad with the fruits that we had got. A small pooja was offered to guruji and the fruit salad was distributed to us. We all ate the delicious fruit salad and thanked others which was the logical end to the course.
All in all a great course. I recommend this to everyone to experience this once in life time. Go to the course with the open mind. You need not have any expectations. Just go with the curiosity to experience something you wouldn't have experienced otherwise. People even with the age of 75 years are doing this daily and getting a lot of benefits. I sincerely thank Guruji for this great gift to the society. I am feeling blessed now :).
