Sangam Gacchami

Some of the best words i learned in last four months... These are the words i was taught in a course i did in art of living. It was a course on meditation, there was a lot that i learned in the 3 days. There was a lot of peace and positivity and then there were teachings to trust all and be kind to them. Most wonderful words which i needed to say to all strangers were -

"Sangam Gacchami - I will walk with you and i belong to you..."

These words are magical. When i feel that someone does not trust me, i just say these words silently in my heart and smile at the person, they work.. :) Its a soul to soul connect that all humans share, but we tend to grow out of these as we move in life. Smile and leave all apprehensions, understand that everyone around is yours and you will walk with them till one of you lay horizontal under ground. Often we make things complicated in life. If only we learned to forgive people and live in present, life will be less complicated. There is nothing called future and past is what we create from our present. We should learn to be humble and thank the nature for everything that is given to us. The moment you start questioning yourself on what did you do to deserve so much food, beauty and love that nature gives you, you will know that you have been blessed to be born and you must live this life fully, every moment of it, without cribbing and working towards making it better.

Thank You God, i think i have been fortunate to see the best in life in everything that comes across me and i know i will always be given the best because i will work towards it. Life is what we make out of it. So, next time when someone shouts at you or looks at you with distrust, just smile and say "Sangam Gacchami, I am human, i am a part of your soul and i will walk with you. Do you recognize me?? " :)

Very beautiful post Garima. Dont know if you are aware that 'Sangam gacchami' is a nice modification of Buddhist prayer for monks and laymen, which has 'sangham sharanam gacchami' - meaning 'I pledge to go by the Sangh - religious body of Buddhist monks'. I can vouch for the power of 'Sangam Gacchami', has worked for me too often, though practicing it every time is quite a tough task.
