Journal 7.23 pm on 17.10 2026 A special day

Dear Journal,

Early in the night I saw a brown bald man (who looked quite like SimBha) in my dream. And I thought about him-- He is Jain. He doesnt eat garlic and onions that is why he doesnt get angry and has a cool inner temperament.

Then a little before waking up I saw in my dream that I was inside an airconditioned Best bus and I wondered how I could break a window in the bus from inside. I think that I can do it with the pyke of an umbrella and I imagine breaking the window that way in my dream. Then in the next scene in my dream the window is broken cleanly with no shards remaining. Wooh... what does all this mean?

I woke up rather late. Then we went to the BonBon pujo. I wore a silk salwar kurta. The onjoli was elaborate. And I also volunteered to serve Bhog. I served two rounds and then I ate.

I had the opportunity to serve my parents, Buro, ShibBag, and Ashish's parents. People kept asking for this and that. It was so much fun serving bhog. ShibBag also gave me a huge kiss when she saw me.

Then someone stole Ma's sandals from the pandal. So she barefeet sat in the car. I checked my phone and saw a missed call from Arun. He had promised to call me on video so that I could see him. So I immediately called him. And he told me that his flight was about to take off. I missed talking to him because I spent over an hour serving bhog. And that's an Alas moment!

I sent him a message that he could call me when he lands but he didnt. Hmmm.

Now in some time I'll have to get ready. I wonder where we will go tonight.

Madhav's mom messaged last night saying we will have class directly on Monday.

I came home from the pandal and I made two cups of tea for Ma and me.

I just finished my evening Gongyo Daimoku.

This is how Pujo should be!

I am feeling:

Stable

Joyous

Pretty

I am grateful for God's infinite Love, Grace and blessings on my life.

1. Something I accomplished.

I served Bhog! I have stopped watching porn (I never did that a lot) and Im feeling so good. I spent time with my family. I prayed. I meditated.

2. Something I handled well.

I served bhog! I handled Buro's irritable bout with silence.

3. Something I appreciated.

The opportunity to serve bhog. It really made me feel good.

4. Something I did for my future self.

I prayed.  Now I'll write a poem.

Love,

Me
