Trip to Mahabalipuram

 We had One trip in Aug: Family trip to Mahabalipuram 

Another trip in Jan 2023 to Mangaluru 

Mahabalipuram was a shorter trip. We drove from Bangalore to TTDC Mahabalipuram Beach Resort. All the rooms are AC beach facing. This is our second time to this resort. First time we attended a retreat and stayed in this resort. The food was below average back then in 2015. However this time the food was good, rooms are reasonably priced and not bad for 1 or 2 days stay.

The only drawback is the beaches are corrosive and we are not allowed to play in ocean. The view is spectacular.  I spent almost till 3am watching the waves of the beach. Again woke up early morning to just enjoy the spectacular sunrise. 

I personally felt we will get bored if you stay here for more than 2 days

5k run adventure....

Where have I reached!!!???
I have still not managed to run for 20mins continuously. I decided to change the focus to distance from now on. So the aim is to cover 3kms run in 20mins. As of today....Not anywhere close. Currently I am able to cover 3kms run-walk in 35mins. It took 3 days to reach this.
At the moment I am definitely disappointed. I am struggling to get there. I haven't given up yet. But the frustration is building up. Many online videos of new runners say the same thing. They all have hit the frustration point.....kept pushing themselves and then reached success. I am assuming it would be the same with me as well.
So I have made some more changes from a week. I stopped jogging and I run at a convenient pace. I focus on the distance and trying to reduce the walk duration. I have cut down on the breaks. I am trying not to stop. I keep changing the location. I have also started to run everyday. I am more stringent at the stretching exercises.
I have also made some changes to my diet. I am consciously drinking more water. I am taking Chia seeds as it's very rich in protein. I have reduced the intake of rice.

What do I want to change further....
Find a way to drink water during the run
Eat more raw vegetables and fruits
Find company to run
Try and run early morning instead of evenings

Further updates....need to wait

5k run adventure Week 2 3 4 and 5

I was a bit lazy to blog regularly...so here is a quick run through of the progress from week 2 to week 5.

Week 2 90sec jog and 2mins of walk
 Again the same mind block. I thought I can't do this but on day 1 I realised it was not tough at all. So week2 went smooth. Just about 600ml of water was sufficient to keep my body hydrated.

Week 3 90sec jog 90secs walk 3min jog and 3min walk
This was a challenge for me. 3min jog was a big jump. I could not do it on the first day. Not even close. I think I broke at 2mins. So I knew it was going to be tough on day 2. I had convinced myself to repeat this week. But then my body surprised me again. Day2 I could meet the 3mins jog. Infact on day 3, I was willing to run a few more extra secs. I didn't push for it.... I wanted to take it at the right pace without demotivating myself.

Week 4 3mins jog 90secs walk 5mins jog and 2.5mins walk
Here again 3mins jog was easy but 5mins was not. I couldn't do it on day 2 as well. But day 3 I was able to run for 5mins but that felt like my best ability. I was scared to move to week 5 practice. Going by my past experience I hoped to get surprised again.

Week 5 day 1 5min jog 3min walk
This I was able to do. But again it felt like the limit and I was not sure of day 2.
Day 2 8mins jog and 5mins walk
I was not even close. I could extend my first cycle of run to 6mins then I had to pause. The rest 2mins was also not easy. 2nd cycle was just 3mins jog. I couldn't push beyond that. So I am going to repeat this today.

Here in this week 5, I am facing following issues
1. Surprisingly I am able to manage my breath. Thanks to the 1month of yoga that I practiced. However my cuff muscles and ankles hurt a lot. That's making me break my run. From the online tips I understand that the stretching after the run is insufficient. I am going to add that and update the improvement. Had I made it a routine... I would have probably hit this week target as well.
2. I need to hydrate my body a bit more. I don't want to carry a bottle with me while running. So I am still thinking how to deal with this.... Going ahead I may need a solution inevitably.
3. I have not lost much weight. It's almost negligible. I guess it's the diet part. I need to fine tune the diet further. I also need to do my yoga more stringently on the other alternate days.

What has been helpful so far are the online videos and tips. They are motivating and informative. Do keep browsing especially the YouTube videos for tips. It's useful for the beginners.

I will update the week 5 progress on the same blog. So watch out for the update....
################################

Repetition 1 didn't meet the target. I could run a max of 6mins and a few secs.
Repetition 2 was semi successful... Meaning I was able to run the 8mins in the first cycle. I did feel like this was the limit. I can't do it anymore. 2nd cycle I didn't have the stamina.
With one day gap I went again for Repetition 3. But my muscles were still hurting from the previous run. I couldn't run for more than 6mins. I plan to take a break of 3 days this time. I will rest and start the run on Monday. I am pondering if I should just move to the day 3 practice. That would be 20mins run. I know it's not very practical but I am thinking if it would be good to just train for the 20mins run directly.
I am also thinking of changing the location. I have been going to the same park Everyday. I think I will just run a route instead.
Update in the next blog....

5k Run adventure -Week 1

I am not athletic....I have not shown interest in the sports in my childhood... But then something happened!!!
I remember my college days when I would miss the bus because I refused to run. I did not one bit like the muscles on my legs getting strained and contracted.

An year back, in the month of Jan, one of my friend suggested we will enrol to a 5k marathon. I think it was called Pinkathon...5k run for ladies. The marathon was held in the month of December so we had ALL the time in the world to practice and enrol. Well..... all the time in the world is always deceiving.. As expected... I practised for a few days and then didn't even think about it for an year. Then obviously the new year resolution to run this year.....The mood cycle was pretty much repetitive and I was falling back to the same tendencies.
At the right time my friend came for the rescue.... :P She enrolled for the marathon and pushed us to do the same... So yes now the target date was fixed as 15 Oct 2017. Initially I focused on Yoga practice for a month. Then my sister recommended a run plan she found online. That triggered more interest in me. Its always good to have a plan...;) Its different if you will follow it though.

Then came the app Poochto5k google app to my rescue. I used it for a week (3days) and uninstalled. This app is for free but it has no voice record. I noticed that I sometimes lost record of whether I should run or walk....It was a bit confusing. So I found another free google app C25k with a training plan to run a 5k marathon. I liked the app as it has a neat voice record, it tracks plan execution, you can pause it, rewind or forward.

Now let me tell you about my running practice. I had completed 1 week of run with Pto5k app. But as mentioned earlier, I have no prior experience to run. So here are my learnings....

Day 1 week 1
My whole body was aching. I had a tough time managing my breath. I actually skipped 2 cycles of run. Next day I had severe knee pain. One day rest was not sufficient. So I took a break for 2 days.
Day 2 Week 1
I somehow managed the workout with lot of cheating ;) Knee pain was again a problem. This time I took 3 days break.
Then I spoke to a trained runner. She suggested that the knee pain could be weak thigh and cuff muscles. Either meet a physiotherapist or do exercises that can strengthen these muscles.

Here Yoga helped a lot. The simple Yoga practice combined with some Pranic self healing sessions, resolved the knee pain issue completely.

Day 3 Week1
I completed the workout without any cheat...no knee pain but I found it very hard to complete run. There was no point in simply jumping to Week 2 as I was sure I cant extend my run duration.

I uninstalled this app. Installed the new app C25K which was more fancy and decided to repeat the Week 1 practice. This time, as suggested in many of the online articles, I did some stretching exercises and yoga the previous day. BINGO.... Day 1 Week 1 repeat cycle went great!!! I was easily able to complete the Week 1 practice.

Day 1 Week 2
This week Monday was Day 1 Week 2. Guess what!!!! Wooooohoooo I did it and I did it with ease. No muscle strain, no body pain, no knee pain. Only mistake was, I forgot to hydrate my body sufficiently. Its important to drink good amount of water before you start the workout.

Its a record break!!! No not Guinness just my own self record. Earlier I have not been able to run for more than 2 mins. I have successfully been able to run for 9 mins!!!! Can you beat this??? Yes of course I will beat it ;) Tomorrow is day 2 and I am looking forward for it!!!!! The aim is to reduce the 2mins break I take after every cycle...

Its an interesting learning about my own body. Human body is so adaptable....so is the mind. We just have to execute the Will to discipline and train it. This time I am going to add some diet tips to my practice.... For now my learning is to drink good amount of water. Will update the rest after I experience it.....Keep an eye here for more :)

A study in Scarlet by Canon Doyle

This is my first Sherlock Holmes book. I guess this is also the first Sherlock Holmes book by Canon Doyle.
I enjoyed reading through every page. The details, the suspense, the logics and strategies of Holmes kept my attention tight to the book.
Will I be reading another Sherlock Holmes book....Well yes of course but not in the near future. I have many important books to be read. I target to read a good deal of books this year.

Kirik Party movie- Thugu Mancha & Neenire Saniha

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

I read this book "The Alchemist" many years back. Written by Paulo Coelho. On the first read it was just a story. The second day the way the climax looped to the beginning of the book felt amazing. After a few days the book had a deeper thinking impact. Triggered a series of thoughts on how it links to the series of incidents in life. How the present actually links to a past incident!!!!

This book had skipped my mind...thought of adding this to my list. Better late than never!! :P

Christianity revealed by Master Choa

I finished reading this book 3 days back.
Such intricate understanding of the teachings of Christianity revealed in such simple words.... I have no words to appreciate the transformation this book has brought. I need to read it many more times... Probably watch Master Co's video on this book can further fine tune my understanding.

Etheric Double by Author E Powel

Finish reading this book on 12th Feb 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember having borrowed this book from a friend in 2002. I found the subject so complex that I returned the book after reading...orrrr I should say after glancing the first 2 pages.

After 15yrs thankfully my mind has matured to understand and appreciate this wonderful book. I love the "to the point" approach in the book. I enjoyed reading every chapter. The insights were amazing. Impact on my healing approaches are yet to be explored. I definitely appreciate the teachings of my Guru with greater respect and gratitude.

I liked the chapter on Death the most. I found it very impactful. The Inner reflection technique from Master Choa is such an impacting method to prepare for the best moment of life.

Just to add a few words on this chapter...: Death is more like our Sprint Retrospection. As per the book, when the physical life is about to end...in those last few minutes, the soul retrospects the life. Every thought and emotion produced in life, every activity and words will flash pass. The soul tries to understand what has been the predominant thought and influence of the incarnation. Lessons learnt are documented and an affirmation made to rectify the mistakes and carry forward the good learnings to the next life. 

Why wait for the death? Why not prepare for the moment to review life on a regular basis? Why not affirm to rectify the mistakes and strengthen the virtues? Regular basis can even be Daily....Hopefully what flashes at death will probably be the positive affirmations and that could probably make death more peaceful and less or no guilt to carry forward!! :)

The book is worth reading...I have 2 more A.E Powell books to read. For now I will switch to a non spiritual book. Just to strike a practical balance in the thought process of life.

Rain Country Resort, Waynad

2 nights stay at the Rain Country Resort in Waynad.
Not sure if it was worth the cost. The resort is surrounded by beautiful mountains, forest and plantations. But the over all service was not upto the mark. Here is a quick review and some beautiful pics:

Pros:
Scenic view
There are mountains on all four sides of the resort with thick trees.
All the cottages and rooms have beautiful view
The rooms are spacious with king size cots and beds.
Food is good.
Both veg and non veg are served. I am a vegetarian so I can't comment on the quality of the non-veg food.
Coffee, tea, breakfast and snacks are part of the package.
The chef was very friendly. My little nephew was with us. They cooked additionally for him without any fuss.
The food was served generously with a smile. I liked the helpers around. Friendly people. Kudos.
The roads from B'lore to Waynad are in good condition. It was a smooth drive.
We pass through the forest area so the air is fresh and nature is beautiful

Cons:
The room hygiene was not upto the mark.
The path from the main road to the resort was risky...unless you are skillful enough to handle it. The path is extremely narrow and steep on the edges. It would be best to inform the resort contact person to send a driver down to the school gate at the main road to drive you up the resort and drop you back to the same point
There is no pool as falsely mentioned on their website. Its a natural pond. With algae, water snake and lots of fishes. So no swim suit required....I mean you cant swim in that pool.
Indoor games....Again a wrong term....only one game: Carom
Outdoor game!!! No idea.
Children play area....its all rusted.
You have no options to go out to any restaurant. So the 3 different packages offered are fake. You have to eat only in the resort. The kitchen in the resort serves only buffet so no option to order and eat. So make your bookings accordingly.

Nevertheless if you are looking for a relaxed weekend....just watch the beautiful nature....this is a good option. We felt 2 nights were are also too long....so I suggest, don't even think of week long stays. You will get bugged and frustrated.

You may try Kerala Ayurvedic Massage. Might be good....but depends...no assurance...

The Royal Bhutan

Travel Itenary To The Royal Bhutan and my story :)

12th May from Bangalore to Delhi
Air Asia

13th May
Delhi to Paro
The scenic view starts from the moment you land in the airport. The Bhutanese culture and tradition is reflected right from the building, the traditional attire, the mountains, the snow caps, the fresh air, cool breeze...!!! Heaven on earth..

From the airport we arrived at the pre-booked resort: Paro-Metta Resort and Spa. Room No 106
Beautiful resort. Pleasant view. The food was average but that is the best we could get in Paro. For a decent eater... simple menu will cost about ₹500/-.

Afternoon we all went to the centre of the town to have lunch....But we had not even half lunch at Hotel Root :(
Bhutan is a very small country with overall population of 7L. They are not used to serving big groups. They gauge the quantity wrong. The system they follow is very weird. They take orders for one group at a time. They go down to the grocery store and buy the raw material for cooking ....including the vegetables. We were a big group of 27 and we had to wait for at least 3hrs....
Suggestion- order smart like momos, curd rice. Order in advance. By the way...this is the system in almost all hotels.
You need not order mineral water anywhere in this country. The water is naturally pure and soothingly tasty. The weather is cool...room temperature water is already cold enough. The country does not grow any crop on large scale. Its all imported from India. They don't use fertilisers. There is no contamination at all!!!!

14th May 2016
Tiger's Nest
Trek to Tiger's Nest. I can pen a big beautiful descriptive story on this trek. To keep it brief...
Its about 3000ft from the base valley of Paro. It is at least 15kms of trek and then a series of stairs to climb. It almost looks endless. I never thought I could have done it...but what the heck I DID IT!!!!
I am not very athletic in nature and haven't been on treks much....It took 4hrs one way to reach the Tiger's Nest. But I think a little preparation can help you trek in 3hrs.

Generally people start early and reach the temple before 1 PM and rush through the premises. Before 1 PM the place is crowded. My suggestion is start by around 10 AM so that you can reach by 2 PM. The temple is closed between 1 pm to 2pm. Post that, there is less crowd and you can go around in peace. If you are wearing sleeves clothing, carry a shrug or a jacket. Else they don't let you inside the temple. Carry a good pair of socks. The floor inside the temple in some places are extremely COLD!!

While climbing up, there is a Cafeteria midway. We didn't spend time here....it is better you carry some stuff to hog and don't kill time in the Cafeteria. The place closes by 3 pm.
Carry a bottle of water. Keep sipping so that you don't dehydrate. Glucose/ Energy Bars/ Almonds are great help on the way up. The weather was favourable when we trekked. Unlike the cold places like Himalayas, you don't run out of oxygen. There is greenery and fresh cool breeze blowing to keep you recharged.

The temple closes by 5 PM but start by at least 3-3:30 PM. It starts to get dark by 6:30 PM and even earlier if it is raining. One group was stuck up till 2 AM due to heavy rains. The path can get slippery to trek down. We were lucky we reached by 7 PM

Now some muft gyan ;)
All said...its a beautiful and spiritually enriched temple. Every effort to reach was worth it. There are many stories about this place...here are few that I collected and found interesting

Buddhist teacher Guru Rimpoche Lord Padmasambhava is believed to have meditated for 3yrs in this place.
Epic narrated:
Guru Rimpoche conquered Bhutan and the King back then offered his Queen to him. The Queen turned into a Tigress. Lord Padmasambhava rode on her back and flew to the top of the cliff. He fought the evils in this place and destroyed the demons. Ironically the structure of the mountain also looks like a tiger.

My understanding on symbolic message;
Guru Padmasambhava conquered Bhutan Spiritually. The King offered/permitted his Queen as Guru Rimpoche's disciple. The Queen must have been a aggressive disciple in spreading the teachings of her Guru and she is symbolized as turning into a Tigress.
The Tiger's Nest has 8 temples of Lord Padmasambhava. These are believed to be 8 incarnations of the Great one. It is probable that these are 8 aspects of Guru Padmasambhava similar to Asta Lakshmi: 8 aspects of Goddess Lakshmi. Every aspect is worth studying.
The Spiritual energy is deep and the mind quietens automatically. If you are a spiritual person and wish to do some meditation....you will love the experience. The Cave where the Great Rimpoche meditated can be seen from the top (Its triangular in shape). This according to me is the most important part of the temple. The silence, peace and blissful energies are loud and mesmerising here. We did some chantings around this. It is closed for entry. It was told to us that there is also an entry door to this cave. It is opened once a year and selected few are allowed to enter during some ceremony.

After a blissful time at the temple we recharged our healing crystals in the premises and started our way back by 3:15 PM. I felt it was relatively easier to come down though we eventually took 4hrs to come down. It was getting quite darker and there is always a fear of the animals who tend to come out in the dark. Well...we reached safe....Body completely exhausted.....Mind completely rejuvinated... I could hear my nerves sing and could probably count each of them!! hahah
Day ends with a brief dinner and deep sleep.

15 May 2016
Ha Valley and Chechela Pass
Most of us were tired after the trek...we woke up late...had breakfast...change in the plan...No treks for the day. We drove to a view point through the Ha Valley and reached Chechela Pass. It is about 4000ft from the Valley. The weather didn't let us have any view. It was mostly fog. The temperature was about 4-5 deg. Carry a good jacket. With clear weather you should be able see the Himalayan ranges.

16 May 2016
Dochula Pass and the 108 Stupas of victory:
Bhutanese army lead by the King (3rd and 4th) won the war against the Maoist Assamee terrorists attack on Bhutan. 108 memorial chortens or stupas known as "Druk Wangyal Chortens" have been built by Ashi Dorji Wangmo Wangchuk, the eldest Queen Mother wife of the 4th King. The stupas are considered to be good luck signifying their victory. When the weather is clear you can see the Himalayas bordering with China.

Druk Wangyel Cafeteria at Dochula pass. Its a beautiful cafe with limited space and food is good though a little expensive. Butter tea tasted very good.

Night we reached Punkha Hotel (Meri Puensum Resort)

17 May 2016
Bhutan has 36 districts. Each marked by a major river. 36 major rivers for 36 districts.
Punaha River in Punakha

The weather was cold here. This place is supposed to be warmer than Paro....but Bhutann weather is very upredictable. It was constantly drizzling and temperature was varying. I felt it was much colder than Paro. Here we went to a beautiful Fortris and river raftig.

Punakha Fortris has a river on either side. Male river and the female river. As the name suggests the male river is supposed to be more aggressive in flow. The male river has a hydrostation setup for the electricity production. The Fortris is built in 2 structures
Monastery part
Here the monks of Punakha district stay. When the people need to perform ceremonies, they approach these monks. The monks go down to the town, host the ceremonies and return to the Fortris

Administrative part
In the olden days, the administrative and the Spiritual hierarchies resided in this Fortris. The first courtyard is where the King was crowned

2nd Courtyard is a sacred courtyard. It is believed that Guru PadmaSambhava would dance here. The evil snakes and dragons would come down to watch and get mesmerised. Guru Rimpoche then captured them and destroyed. Very symbolic...isnt it? Could be the evil within nus...Could be the uncontrolled sex energy symbolised by the snakes and dragons...Dance helps in the sublimation. Could this also be similar to the Lord Krishna's dance and Kaliya mardhana?

The 3rd courtyard has 2 entrance:
The one on the right side is where the Unifier Body was buried
Here only the king is permitted to enter and seek blessings.The intense Ray1 energy was evident even at the entrance of this building

The other where was the Monk's prayer hall.
Here the public entry is permitted.

In the centre is the statue of Shakyamuni, Left is Guru Padmasambhava and Right Side is the Unifier Shabdung Rimpoche.
Front of Shakyamunni are his 2 disciples: Sariputra and Matha Kalyana. Beside Shakyamuni are: Lord maitreya on the right side and Deepena Buddha on the left side. Deepena Buddha was the previous Buddha. The Buddha previous to Buddha Shakyamuni.
The 2 disciples beside the Unifier are called Heart Sons. There is also a smaller statue called Dorge Jung. This is in front of the Unifier Buddha statue. He is also called the Infinte Buddha.
To the extreme left of Buddha Shkyamuni (Future Buddha) is again Gautama Buddha (earth bound Buddha). Both of these statues are Buddha Shakyamuni. Based on the mudra, one is called the future buddha and the other is called the earth bound buddha. That's a lot of information revealed and needs to ponder.
After the Unifier left his body, there were governors and spiritual monks who carried forward the work of the Unifier (Shabdung Rimpoche).

Story of the Unifier:
An Indian saint came to Bhutan in search of a medicine for his ill mom. He would work as yak herd and helped the farmers in the day time and in the nights he meditated. During his meditation, he saw a stone that appeared in front of him. It was in the shape of a frog. He broke this rock and built this Fortris in accordance with the information he received during his meditation as a healing for his mother.
Later after many years, the Unifier appeared as an elephant with 7 trunks and built a bigger fortris that is present today.

Thats a very symbolic story. I guess I am not allowed to illustrate it on this public website but definitely worth meditating on..!!!
Nothing much to narrate after this....So I will just rush through...

What I had to skip:
River rafting in the female river
Feedback from friends that it was anyway not worth it :P

Meditation in the temple
This place was simply amazing. I have no words to describe the intensity of the meditation we did in this place. Acharya Co was a true blessing on us. The meditation hall entrance can be seen in the pic below. Its right under the Buddha statue. The interiors are stunning.  There is a statue of Buddha Shakyamuni, surrounded by his four disciples. The statues are huge and with the serene smile and peaceful eyes. I am truly blessed to have been there.
