Grand conjunction crescent

An individual's striving to become whole, access one's core, is yoga or integration.

Kshema is myriad expressions of one's core, in the world - differential benefic manifestations.   

Once, an industrialist wanted me, to visit his home. 

He drove me in his expensive car, as we surveyed his sprawling estate; and arrived at his tucked away villa. 

A uniformed guard greeted us, opened gates. The driveway snaked through well kept gardens -  a gardener tended in the sunshine. We cruised into a plush portico paved with Italian marble. His wife hurried out to greet us, with billowing, blown hair.

The man turned to me, said apologetically, "What to do Swamiji; my prarabdha."

- Swami Chinmayananda
