सत्यम परम धीमहि!! The righteous never fall.

After 18 arduous days of excruciating circumstances finally the two incarcerated members of the Art of Living family, Samir Jolly and Khroo Lamsalanki Pariat aka Lam are free. These 18 days have been like 18 chapters of Bhagavad Gita, loaded with learning, surrender, prayer and an unshakable faith that things will finally be alright.

KA National Heros

Inspired by Poojya Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji to work towards bringing peace, Lam and Samir Jolly (a senior faculty of The Art of Living & a veteran in guiding misguided youth back into main stream), were on a peace mission and wanted to connect with alleged core leaders of a banned group Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC), who operate at the border of India and Bangladesh, when they were arrested at Dawki before they could cross the border for the meeting. 

These peacekeepers risked their lives to do something good for the society. This entire process of initiating peace in the region has taken a back seat due to this unfortunate event.
Lam had set aside his political aspirations to work towards bringing back misguided youth into mainstream society. When his family reunited with him it was a heart touching moment of  love and longing.

A great family reunion
Samir Jolly's father was a retired Brigadier from the Indian Army. Love for his country is part of his heritage and also his legacy. I am indebted to him since once he had risked his life to save mine and has been more than family to me ever since.

KA Diphu River Rejuvenation
There are very few people like them in the world. They are one of the rarest jewels sent on earth to create a beautiful, peaceful and prosperous world.
When the instruments of peace are locked up and devoid of acting freely, the momentum of spreading peace takes a back seat, it needs time to recuperate and rejuvenate after the trauma. But just before they were to be free, I met Samir Jolly and asked him if he was ready to pick up upcoming assignments with the same zeal and enthusiasm as before. He immediately replied that he was and was busy planning his next peace initiative. It was a brilliant example of unwavering commitment and non dying enthusiasm. This moment for me was a tight slap to all the leftist who sit and do nothing but passionately pull down,those who do good for the society.

Welcome Home

The more I wonder, the more I get inspired by Poojya Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar who recently said, "We will not stop till the last gun is laid down in the region. The time has come to move from grenades and guns to garlands and hugs."

Just out of the Jowai Jail

Here is a small expression for our National Hero's like Lam, Deepa Dave, Samir Jolly and others..

As free as air, we live together.

As calm as water, we with everyone everything share

As ferociously as fire, never halt till we reach there

As strong as earth, we overcome obstacles everywhere

Really, fortunate I am to be born on this great land

Really, glad I am to be a part of this legendary sand

Really, blessed I am to be one of my mother’s thousand hand

The legend of my Nation, continue to sustain.

The holy place of God, where people live together

Here, we stay united in every kind of weather

In happiness in sadness, our spirit does not shatter

In every particle, in every place

The legend of our heroes 

continues to grace.

Poojya Gurudev!!

I pray to You today,

The false will fall and  

The truth shall prevail,

Do give me strength...

To serve as Your finest instrument!

Khublei!!

सत्यम परम धीमहि!! .

Equally laudable is the effort of those who selflessly came forward to make Samir Jolly and Lams release possible in just a fortnight. Included in the back room heroes are Deepak Sharma, Sunil ji, Sujit ji, Ashim Bhaiya to name a few. 100% support from govt. officials. And for all the support from Lam’s sister Wansadaka who was there all the time. Samir’s wife and in laws who traveled several thousand miles to be with him in a remote place. The Army who supported Samir’s family in its stay and other logistis. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar who was constantly on the top of things and was in touch with the family 24/7. Lots of running around, meeting with each and every officer and explaining the background and clarifying the values of Aol and of both the volunteers.

Not to forget all the prayers at local church offered by Samir’s little boy.

I understand wt u ve written here might be just the tip of the iceberg. I asks fr gods blessing s so that you all are successful in your mission. Love u bhaiya. God bless you all.
