100 Happy Days: Day 9 Mystic Music

Happiness is listening to mystic lyrics by the seaside.

“Mohko kahah dundey rey bandhe

meh toh tere paas, rey”

Kabir says, don’t search me anywhere, I am within you, I reside in your faith.

Such lovely words, such lovely music..an evening well spent.

There is some magic in Kabir lyrics which takes you to another world.

I was very happy to attend this Kabir festival at Amphitheatre at Carter road. The cool sea breeze, sun setting on the horizon, we sat wrapped up in shawls listening to live foot tapping music.

So here I am, with the project of ‘100 Happy Days’I am posting pictures each day here on my blog then sharing the link on my page on FB too. You can enjoy my work either here or on my page at FB at Pushee’s World

Joggers' Park at Bandra

Most of the evening I am lazy, I normally sit with a cup of tea in my balcony, watching the sunset, nibbling away on some snack, listening to radio and dreaming of something that I wouldn’t discuss with anyone, not even with my best friend.


But on those days, when I happen to look in the mirror and see my protruding tummy groan at me, I shy away from my image and walk downstairs and circle around my building several times. Many a times I meet my friends who will then get adventurous and suggest a walk by the seashore or at the beach. The Juhu beach, or the promenades of Carter Road and Bandstand are all just auto-ride away and it always turns out a better option and I always return home refreshed and in good humor.

Of all the places, I like Joggers park at Bandra the best. We spend about twenty minutes walking on the sandy path, then go to the birdy area to meditate on birds, and finally settle on the seats facing the sea and watch the sunset. On our way home, we have a warm soup sold from a mobile shop and return in time to watch the late night TV shows.
