Wonders exist on the YouTube at times. One such ultimately beautiful video was a view of the Kailas absolutely bathed in gold. One for sure could understand the principles of physics involved, the optics laws that resulted in this grand vision, and yet all such information excess pales when you are face to face with such lyrical ballads of-n-by nature!
This evening suddenly flashed on the mobile screen a programme called "Drishyam" which showed the Hath Yogis' Himalayan home. I could not get to see the whole of it. Yet i loved it. To begin with, the ice bedecked Himalayan ranges were incredibly beautiful.
Still more gorgeous was the vision of this Hath Yogi, the swamiji, who knew how to control breath in such a way that the cold did not at all seem to matter to him. In the freezing cold where the temperature was minus something, in knee deep ice, he was wearing only a kashay vastra, with the upper torso covered with some three rudraksh mala's.
Such seemed his control over the breath, and hence, over the body that the external context just did not seem to exist to him. Wish i could see the programme till the end. Obviously the shooting team had huge issues. The Hath Yogi Swamiji could, however, create a huge shivlinga with his bare hands while waiting it out for the narrator and the cameras . Very helpfully, moreover, he was explaining how to make it, and with the glee of a child making a snowman!
Much to learn, in brief, from this vast universe!
