Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 hey manoj, Best advice ( lol ) go to mumbai and work there for 2 yrs, you will never feel bored . soon you will learn how to climb on top of train and stand in between boggies to travel and all .. hey hey !!! yup.. it's a crazy place , many people do travel like that there... work in that famous ambani groups company ( not mentioning the company name ) , every day you will be leaving home at 7 AM , travelling for nearly 2 hrs , will reach home by 10PM , you can work even on second saturday ( official working day ) ... the same baby then will start crying ... " ngiaaaa .. I wanna for time for me ... ngaiiaaaaa" You will learn how to live 110% , moment to moment .. you cannot dream , if you dream you will either miss your train , or you will fall out of train . hi hi .... ( travle by road !! forget it , it will take double the time ) . In office too you cannot be dreamy somebody else will pull your leg and occupy your seat mann !!! ha ha .. so your awareness of the present moment will grow .. cool advice na ?... just kidding .. For me first few years in mumbai was luxurious , when I was staying at a quraters of citigroup subsidiary . ( after my engineering studies at REC calicut , I got campus placement to mumbai) door to door company bus club house , furnished flat and all , later a long term assignment in london and all.. but 2003-2004 , was totally pizzed off when I was forced to change the company(that story later). anyway bangalore is a sleeping city , peaceful, lots of greeneries around, do visit kerala in every month. hmmm.. to have high energy.. sing a lot , dance a lot , laugh a lot & breath a lot . secret for the high energy .. go join some martial arts group .. ( not for fighting with me .. hey hey !!! ) .. it will keep you alive . If you have observed there is a lot of similarity between yoga & martial arts. but martial arts is more rajasic and helps people to feel good about them . had heard about trance dance ?. had attended that in london .. breathe out madly with sound while you dance madly with good music .. In the morning do a lot of exercise with haaaa sound .. ( breathe out through mouth , feel like as if you are roaring like a lion , but no sound to disturb others ... feel like a warrior .. do fast breathing "in the morning" ( like bhastrika ) .. do slow breathing , slow walking .. practising very slow movements "in the evening" .. so that your sleep will be meditative .. but during day time, live life like mad rebellious spontaneous child playing every moment with 110 %. rememebr it is the CHANGE , which creates a wow in iourselves as well as others .. nature too loves changes .. so be creative in everything . O god !!! have to finish a lot work ... my boss will go crazy today ... lol .. with lots of luv your little brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A crazy place where you will never get bored! I sure didn't during the few days I spent there in December 1995. There's a great pizza joint, called simply The Pizzeria, on the corner of Veer Nariman Rd. and Marine Drive. Best pizzas in India IMHO. And they serve beer too! I survived the local EMU trains between Central Station and Churchgate - riding on a Sunday, so it wasn't crush-loaded with people standing out the doors and riding on the roof. Took the ferry boat to Elephanta Caves. Bet a few rupees on the ponies at the Mahalaxmi Race Course (didn't win!) Finding the nearest thing to a sports bar and watching India v. Pakistan field hockey game. Hearing a Hindi version of "White Christmas" on All India Radio. Just a few of my memories of Mumbai, though they don't include Amma (I did India a couple years before meeting her). Westerners are such a common sight in Mumbai that they're less likely than elsewhere in India to get glommed on or ripped off by touts and rickshaw wallahs. Actually I had one taxi driver who wanted to take me to Mumbai's red light district, but I said "Mere ke pas nirodhan nahim" (I don't have any condoms on me). You probably won't find that one in your Hindi prhase book Keval _______________________________ Express yourself with Y! Messenger! Free. Download now. http://messenger.
