The Beginning

It was after working in Pune for some time that we decided to go to Rajkot, our home town, for a vacation[organising course ;)].During one of our ashram visits we had heard Guruji mentioning about need for YES!+ in Gujarat. That was the major motivation. Our father had been recently transferred to Rajkot and had rented a one room house for himself. What a horror he got when he heard our intentions of coming to meet him were actually starting YES!+ in Rajkot! It was sheer fun staying with our parents as hostel mates, in 1 room! The room was multipurpose room! It was dining room at dining hours that would transform into drawing room for visitors and bedroom when we needed sleep! The home had an amazingly huge terrace(bigger than the room!) where both of us, in the night time used to sit and watch the stars. Our favorite place in our home was the tiny little garden which had plants with beautiful smelling flowers. The smell of these flowers used to hover in our room the whole day...natural room fresheners! This garden was the place where youngsters would gather for intro talks and apply for YES!+ workshop! Another fantastic thing about the house was a nice handpump in the garden where both of us sisters used to play when we would get free. Of course when Sweta is around even small little insignificant things give me tremendous joy. It also holds true that she has this knack of making significant things seem insignificant.u guys can take it both in the positive and negative sense. (this one from me,krishna)

Our neighbors were taken aback when everyday new guys [GUYS :O] and girls used to visit our home! There was also one old uncle who used to spy on us as to what we were doing and would later report papa thinking that he doesnt know! lol!

Life became giving introtalks. We still remember being welcomed into the first college intro talk in Rajkot by a group of whistling and hooting youngsters!!! Met crooks who would beg us to take them on workshop and would disappear when form filling came! Used to get calls for help from guys asking us to give mobile number of girls from the feedback form!

No TV, no computer, no music system! Life was fun then,like it is now. Accept the situation as it is was used here and there... :) Over the years by practicing what the coolest Guru of all time has charted, we have started relishing life to the core. THERE IS MORE LIFE IN LIVING! (courtesy Vinod Menon) .

After becoming teachers we got the opportunity to live the knowledge points, which previously we just knew as a part of course which needs to be applied at apt times...

Jai Gurudev!
