I left Patiala...

I left Patiala.

Theres so much to post about..and so little time...

Patiala was getting too much for me... Same food (paronthe & cha) every morning...so it was getting too much. I've had a hard time adjusting in India already...

So I'm back where I started in regards to the taus....
I've been learning the harmonium for a while now and learnt a few shabads... Coincidentially he knew how to play the dilruba (played very similarily to the taus)...so it seems likely I'm going to learn from him...but on the other side the Patiala guy lives in this city..and usually comes here every weekend, so I'm considering going to Patiala for two days a week, and spend two days (weekend) in this city, which means four days a week...which is ok...So I'm a bit confused now....


A bit more important issue that has been on my mind for a while.... is that while our family was in India..someone broke in to our appartment. ..

Although they took some stuff...and threw my and mums cloths out for the wardrobes... that hasn't bothered me too much....but the fact that they went in to Maharaj's room..

It doesn't bothere me that they too the money infront of Maharaj's saroop...and some money that mum hid under the chadar in case a such situation would occur. What bothers me.is that they had thrown around Guntey...and according to the description of my uncle..who came backa few weeks earlier...done "beadbi of Maharaj"..

That really crushed me. Made me soo sad. Most likely they searched through Maharaj's angs for money.....But I don't know the whole situation....Luckely my uncle and another uncle..came in the middle of the night as soon as they found out....did seva of some sort (probably changed or cleaned the rumallas and restorted Maharaj on the Palki Sahib...

Whatever the case be... It really crushed us. Especially since we had just gone to Shimla to relax for a few days...just before mum was going to go back from India...

Anyway...lets hope Maharaj blesses me with the gift of staying in his sharan and blesses me with the gift of singing his praises...

Lets see what happens.
