An ordinary thursday

Liljekonvalje - the Pig - went out today to spread the spoonrevolution. He went to the streets...



...and he went to the parks. And he distributed many cooking books and manifestos!



Later we went to a forest lake (not so) nearby.



On the way we found a tree with some far out flowers (magnolia)





How can one be/remain an atheist when seeing and smelling this flower?



Finally we reached the lake



Again - how can one be/remain an atheist when seeing this sky? Mother Nature is not only whispering about the creator, she is putting it in picture!



Shyamananda told a very interesting story...



...that he liked very much ...



... and the others too.



Charming :)

Creating new samskaras*
Skapar nya samskaras*


Sunshine should be taken care of
Solsken måste man ta vara på

*samskaras:
ENG: samskaras means the impressions in the mind that your thoughts are flowing in (as riverbeds). Everyone have their own special charactaristics of their samskaras according to his or her previous actions and experiences. We should dig new samskaras that flows in a spiritual direction instead of the temporary, this we do by constant practice of chanting and listening to the living self evident wisdom of Vedanta.

*samskaras:
SV: samskaras syftar till de intryck i sinnet som våra tankar flyter i (som flodbäddar). Allas samskaras har sina egna speciella särdrag beroende på våra tidigare handlingar och upplevelser. Vi bör gräva nya samskaras som riktas mot det transcendentala istället för det temporära, och detta gör vi genom att regelbundet chanta mahamantrat och genom att lyssna till Vedantas självlysande levande visdom.
