Day 28, with Eric La Faurie

After Harbhajan and Guru Jagat my next destination is Eric, his wife Marita and their two children. I have a place so it is time for some relaxation and be a tourist and enjoy some of the beauty of France. I drive through the Gorges d`Ardeche and I decide I want to ride the water. So I hire a canoe and go for 6 km on the river. The water is high, which means the stream is very strong and going with it, it opens the way, even to go through the quick rapids, no problem. When I try to go against the stream, it is not possible and that is a very nice metafor, I feel sometimes I go against the stream in daily life and that costs me a lot of energy and it does not bring me anywhere...

To find the way, again this is my topic, i was going to log onto someone`s internet on the road, so i did not ask Guru Jagat to print the route... Everywhere I tried to connect, i could not get connection, so I drove and drove just with the knowledge that they live on the otherside of the hill from Karta`s place. I stop many times to ask the way, but La Faurie is such a small village, it is not on the map. I just listen to aad such, djugaad such, he bhee such, nanak hosee bhee such, the mantra for the masters touch and there is La Faurie and the sign to St Andre and Eric, so i am there without any detour... a miracle, and it is very nice to meet with Eric and Marita, as Eric has done the training with Peter, Akal, Truus and Gabor... still, i feel somuch fear to go to Karta;; never have that before, i am trying all kinds of excuses, it is very clouded and i forgot my rain coat for example...

The sadhana is very nice, Eric wakes me and just a quick cold shower, a foot massage of the road, as i walk bearfeet on it to collect my harmonium, to play during the relaxation. During the wahe guru, Anton and Louisa are awake and they come and sit on Eric`s lap. When I see that, my motherly feeling are very present and I tell myself I go change my destiny and get myself a baby too, now, in stead of when I`m almost 40, as it is written in the stars...
