The Passion

 Have you ever felt ‘ I am still energetic – in fact double energetic ‘ now, even after working for, say around 20 plus hours – continuous? Mad? Foolish? Doesn’t make sense? People around you ask “are you a human or mad? “. Welcome to the world of Passion and Passionate beings.

 I once completed 1132 Kms in a single day – With 6 hours sleep. (Would love to beat this record again). When I updated this in fb, the first comment was “are you mad? “. I smiled at that comment. Because “what is not being mad ” puzzles me. Driving home -business place – home… I consider that as a puzzling lifestyle. I am not against it. All I say is… it puzzles me with a question “how”. I never add ‘mad’ to my puzzle moment. I just ask ‘how is it possible?’ India changes with every 600 hundred kilometers, a Phenomena one can experience only when travel by road. I sometimes question myself ‘ What day today? ‘ ‘ Where am I?’ ‘Who is this person talking to me as if I know him ‘…? All ends in few seconds with proper answers. I later realized that it took few seconds because that much depth I traveled inside the world called Passion about what I actually love. Live. Breath. I eat roads. I never travel on it.

 How much time will take to complete a book? 200 plus pages? One week. Few days. Yes. No. For me, few hours. Why? Is it that I am interested in completing than understanding it? No. I understand well. In fact, only when I understand one line I can move on to next. For me, it takes few hours to complete it. A continuous, nonstop, external world forgetting, deeply rooted – meditation that is! I read pages as if I eat Gulab jamoons. Once, I completed a book – at a stretch – few hours, went for a drive, conducted a session, Attended one business meeting, finalized some important decisions and ….. Came back and read that book again – just to self-realize what I practiced from what I learnt from that book. Mad? Yes. My wishes to the blessed you.

 Once there was a NLP session started by 08.30 am in the morning with 25 participants and ended up by next day morning 04.30 am. Surprised! No I never. (There were few female participants – their husbands came for picking them -ended up sitting inside the hall – after getting permission!) I still feel, inside training hall, I am a different person. There was once a feedback ‘it’s as if you are taken by something’. Taken by something? – What else that the World called named as PASSION!

 Do you think I am speaking about ‘long hours’ ‘ speed ‘ ‘dedication ‘ here? Or all of these together? Certainly not. I am speaking about a Virtual world called Passion – which occupies my every cell, a kind of new vibration sparks in, body jumps as if a curious kid searching for Something . And … The curious kid never satisfied with what it gets – every time, makes the search becoming continuous. Yes. Present and continuous sense. That’s where passion lives.

 In this frequency of living, I meet only few matching my frequency. Only with those I am able to share what I go through. They either understand me or they suggest my next steps, taking my thought to next level. They are a few, one in a Lakh! They know me inside out. I love to speak to them about my world of search. They love to hear, understand and care. A rest on a caring shoulder is what every passionate human looks for!

 For others, I am a MAD. Yes. PASSION bears that name OFTEN. All those others … Wishing you all the best.
