We'd been wanting to visit the Isha Yoga Centre for a very long time, and finally, the time came. Our family embarked on a journey to the Isha Yoga Centre in Coimbatore on 22nd July 2023. Little did we know that destiny had a delightful surprise in store for us. Just a week before our visit, we got to know about the Science-20 Summit, a G20 meeting, being held at the Isha Yoga Centre in the presence of Sadhguru. The prospect of having His darshan filled us with elation and anticipation.
However, as we reached the ashram, we understood that Sadhguru's schedule was tightly packed, and it seemed unlikely for us to get an opportunity to see or attend any public sessions. Nevertheless, we reconciled and remained content and grateful for being in the physical proximity of the Guru. We immersed ourselves in the serene ambience, taking in the Grace of Dhyanalinga, Linga Bhairavi, and relishing the surreal experience of bathing in Theerthakund. The two days felt like a slice of heaven.
On the evening of 23rd July, as our departure time approached, my father had to leave early for some personal errands. Priya, Amma, Yajur, and myself visited the Peppervine eatery for a cup of coffee before heading back to the ashram 'welcome point' to catch our taxi.
As we walked towards the welcome point, we noticed a line forming, and it didn't take long for us to realize the reason behind the gathering. It was none other than Sadhguru making his way towards the crowd! Fueled by excitement and adrenaline, we somehow navigated our way through the people with our luggage bags and suitcases, determined to catch a glimpse of Him.
And there it was—a surreal moment that unfolded within seconds. Sadhguru arrived, driving his black hummer, sporting cool black shades, and radiating an aura of Grace and exuberance. We were elated to see Him at such close quarters. As He passed by, He bestowed upon us a warm smile and a wave. Our hearts skipped a beat as we beheld Sadhguru just a few feet away. We were filled with extreme joy and gratitude, even if only for those few moments.
Within just a minute of seeing Sadhguru up close, Yajur's eyelids grew heavy. As if fulfilling his purpose of being awake, he dozed off almost instantly. What a culmination to our trip! A profound experience that left an indelible mark on our souls. We are immensely grateful to all the forces and Sadhguru's Grace that conspired to grant us this beautiful experience.
Wonderful experience, Isha yoga is such a serene place, which we too enjoyed, thanks for sharing da.....Dharini
