Well... I'll start with my mostest favouritest subject : my Gurudev, H H Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji :-)
Was searching for something (on the net, not in my room ;-) and stumbled upon the India Today cover story of Gurudev, which was published in Nov 2001 .. and how distinctly i remember those days !
Jai Gurudev!
Dimps
p.s: why did I thank god for having been sent back from my 1st attempt to do the AOL basic course ? thats another story for another day :-)
Was searching for something (on the net, not in my room ;-) and stumbled upon the India Today cover story of Gurudev, which was published in Nov 2001 .. and how distinctly i remember those days !
I had seen Gurudev on TV in oct/nov 2001 and HE had left a deep inexplicable impression on my mind and I was also an avid reader of India Today ..
When I heard that HE was the cover story , i actually ran n grabbed my copy and read HIS story again n again

And then it happened... HE came to blore city for one those mostest awesomest satsangs in Dec 21 or 22 , 2001 !! and that too so close to my place!
I went to the venue at 5 pm only, so that i could catch place and see HIM from near... and when HE left the satsang, i ran to the periphery of the grounds to see HIS car leave (Guru Chasing already?! 
) and had thought to myself - "oh my god ! WHO is THIS guy 
?! ...... JUST who is this? "
And before i knew, tears were flowing down my cheeks - it made no sense to me at that time - i was just another gawky rebellious teenager and "gratitude" or "longing" was more alien than the adjacent solar system !
After that satsang, i immediately went for the course in my area but was sent back as there weren't enough ppl (thank god!) .. finally did the course in Jan 2002 and the rest , as they say, is just DIVINE LOVE (not history!)
