15th July: It's BBQ time at Ravi & Uma's!!

The day started off with heavy rains. Fenu M, making macroni salad, for the party. Me, being the errand runner & driver. Mom helping out. Shaun & Sabrina , off to Ravi’s  place to help set the place.

Thank heaven’s for the talks that the weather gods & I have. The promise made to Ravi & faith in our talks , hold through! The weather turns around & when we reach at 3pm , the Sun is out. Perfect for BBQ!!

Meet their regular gang & a few new friends. Loads of food & drinks to go around. Kids playing football, all kinds of music playing, general gup shup , masti .. the works!!! A lovely time, with Ravi & Abbu being the official chefs !! The chicken & prawns were delicious ….

By the time the evening ended, we had made new friends & ready for another BBQ party at Fenu M’s on 5th Aug , if all works fine!!!

Highlight was the fact that like minded people do find each other & when the basis is the Guru, how can it be otherwise?? We met up with Chitra & Ajay, who have recently started going to the Art of living Satsangs. The talks went from the Guru’s, spirituality, Vedas, Indian philosophy …. A super interaction of minds, knowledge, wisdom !! Since, Ajay is very well read  & his first Guru ever was Swami Vivekanada, I was so reminded of Sainath!!

Twins… Arun Patnaik has a twin in London, Abbu looks so much like him … was uncanny!!!

Philosophical discussions! That's so rare! I mean... there are people who still have a soul... Would like to hear something that they said, and what kinda subjects were spoken of.
