In my early days in Gyan, I tried to get to grips with Hindi and got a BK document from GCH with translations of common Gyani words/phrases from Hindi into English. Maybe we should develop an informative and/or humorous ex-BK dictionary/thesaurus?
Here goes (to start off ...)
'Sit for Yoga' - The undefined art of sitting on the same spot for endless hours staring at some little light in stuffy conditions and trying desperately to hold onto your gas, but having to adjust your buttocks into a more comfortable postition and accidentally letting one out anyway. Hopefully silently.
'Amrit Vela' - a dynamic opportunity to meet other members of your clan in early morning silence and see them au natural, with morning breath et al, and then thinking constantly about those that are still sleeping. And wishing you had the courage to sleep through as well. Otherwise called 'Judgement Hour'.
'Traffic Control' - a spiritual 3 minute break when eating gassy, fatty foods that allows your body to rest in-between mouthfuls and think about what you'll have to eat at your next meal. Otherwise, an ideal opportunity to put down your shopping bags from the nearby village and unobtrusively try to remove the cow-dung from your new sandals.
'Gyan' a deeply knowledgeable spiritual person who's learnt to keep their head down and avoid conflict with their tribe members. They usually present as shy and quiet in nature but on the inside could be raging hormonal tigers with sharp claws.
