Art of Living

This is the story of May 2000 when I and my wife were traveling by train from Gorakhpur to Bangalore to join Art of Living teachers training course phase one. The journey was 59 hours long. There was rush in the train due to summer holidays. Though our 3 tier a/c reservation was on waiting list, we started our journey in a believe that our ticket will be confirmed soon on the way. On the way everyone in the train compartment warned us to leave immediately otherwise we have to pay for traveling illegally. Someone even warned us that we’ll be jailed for doing this. They even complained train ticket collector about the matter.

But we were not afraid a bit because we knew Guruji will help us to get rid of this problem, so we continued our journey listening to all misguiding and rubbish of travelers.

Train ticket collectors mostly don’t act friendly or help passengers as they are busy by themselves. But we were really surprised when train ticket collector reacted very friendly and allowed us to travel in the same compartment. All the passengers in the compartment were shocked. The most surprising part was when train ticket collector by himself gave his own place to us at mid night. The whole day and the night were passed and still we did not have our ticket confirmed. On the next day evening in Secunderabad, at last, we got our ticket confirmed. And there we were at Bangalore on third day afternoon with full of joy and happiness.

This was first time when I found train ticket collector very friendly and traveler non-friendly.

Jai Guru Dev!
