Reportage

Keeping an eye on the funny side of life by Dada Vimaleshananda

Pee - Pee - Pee - Pee - Pee ... what is this sound? As I hang my wet cloths I look around for the source of this unusual early morning. And it is there! A biped scuttling around scared by the bigger human biped dressed in orange.
A telephone call arrives with the notice of giving a Neo Humanism class for the coming Ananda marga Guatemala retreat. It is not a new topic but the presence of an animal makes the preparation very lively.

At the gate a small kid claims his lost little chicken. The time to fetch the keys of the lock and the kid is no more. Maybe this is his new house for the time being, but the biped needs food.

Are we wired to do meditation?

In Ananda Nagar

Recently I have been exploring the world of cognitive neuro-science in order to find a scientific explaination to certain specific faculties of the mind. The development of this field of science is very relevant for the scientific explaination of how meditation works and what are its effects. Studies have been done related for example to mindfullness meditation and published on Google Tech Talks available on YouTube.

lead a person towards spiritual self-realization. However, in the
present age art has become a slave of both commercial and political
interests. Renaissance Artists and Writers Association, (RAWA), was

Prabhat Rainjan Sarkar in India in 1958 in order to restore
art to its true role as an instrument for social and spiritual awakening. He envisioned a New Artistic Renaissance where artists and
