Blessing in disguise.


The lazy, careless fellow as I have been, didn't arrange an appointment with the Gynecologist for too long. Symptoms kept worsening and we were advised to stay away till symptoms are gone. We couldn't otherwise did it too as it indeed was a crisis scenario. Even normal activities like walking, sitting were hampered. I've been anything but selfish, on this front at least.

The was no intention in the beginning. Yet coming close on the same bed was unavoidable and soon, we found ourselves in the pose, robes still on. There was no apprehension either on the other side too as I had till then earned the reputation of being in control throughout the process. Inadvertently, everything else set to pace with an inner knowledge that the alley shall be leading to a dead end.

Somewhere the chord struck. It was a pleasant surprise. Was it happening? Yes. Without losing focus, the unnecessary and harmless to remove were done away with, except the one that was indispensable, to muzzle the devil. Dragons fumed, the need for restraint was felt stronger than usual; a strange revelation in itself. The hustle-bustle lasted as long as it would do normally and parting moment appeared; with only the one having been served. The other still in the furnace. However, there was no ambiguity about the big O. There wasn't either any shortage of remedies too. Suggestion came and was also approved that the veil be discarded and the subservient one, bloodless till then, should atleast be allowed to say hello to the master in person. Nothing more.

As it took around 10-15 minutes to arrive at the decision, the defence mechanism of the fortress had retired as per their routine which taught them that there wasn't going to be another call to defend. Though, it all happened unplanned - how could the novices chalk out such a strategy beforehand - Yet it worked and the unthinkable happened. The profuse residuals of the recent cloud-burst scattered throughout also facilitated the breach, almost unnoticeable. The half dead, flexible appearance of the intruder helped too.

What a pleasant surprise! The gap allowed creation of huge waves in the same ocean that had become deadly silent after a fierce tsunami. The waves, the most fierce noticed so far, were reportedly generated at a much deeper and hitherto unexplored territory. Revelation was more startling than pleasant. It was only after that that I started thinking about it in terms of energy, energy exchange, yin & yang, Shiva and Shakti, Purush and Prakriti and later something of relation between Mooladhar and Sahastrar. Afterwards, it became more experimental than pure fun; Even today, at least 8-10 minutes i.e. aprox. 1/3 of the total drama, is more often devoted to the introduction phase; yes I call it so. Things take place on their own afterwards. The symptoms of ailment subsided soon and ultimately left. Teaching us for life that there is no play, it's, throughout, the conscious foreplay on the mans' part.
