Spiritual Update; Spiritual Thoughts about Terrifying Military Attack Power Reality of World Now and Also About Space Travel

My last spiritual update post was in end Jan. this year. Here's a short update to that. The Dissolve into God Sadhana (DIGS) is going on well. Regular prayer to Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba is also going on well. Some notes I had made over the past few months are given below. Feel the lasting truth break. I can have this break when I need a break from activity that is straining me mentally. This can be a long session of software development work which is becoming difficult like a long unsuccessful debugging or trial and error session. I have had some success with this approach. Quite a few times, I take this break, which I also refer to as DIGS break. While I have not timed it, the impression I have is that after half an hour of such a break, my mental tiredness reduces significantly. PCMC stands for Prayer, Chanting, Meditation and Contemplation. In Hindi or Sanskrit: Prarthana, Jap, Dhyan and Chintan. Nowadays most of my spiritual activities or efforts are PCMC type. ===========...

My recent Facebook post about 8 year old Facebook post about my 'Who am I? I am I ... ' book

Contents of my recent Facebook post are given below. Today Facebook showed me this 8 years old post of mine. While I rarely write on spirituality nowadays, I decided to share it along with some info. about the related book, as it may be of interest to any readers contemplating on self-publishing their first spiritual book. The book in the shared post was my first effort at publishing or rather self-publishing a book. Initially I explored a local printer in Puttaparthi - the pics in the shared post are of the local printer printed book (cover page and book printing in general was not very good). Later I moved to self-publishing the book through Pothi.com and Notion Press (both provided much better printing of the book including cover page). Note that I published the ebook as free download and the printed book at not-for-profit minimal price. The big takeaway for me from this effort was that even now years after I self-published it and moved on to other stuff, that book is around and se...

After 50 years, Human Beings Have Gone Beyond Earth's Orbit And Are Safely Back On Earth - Artemis II

Last updated on 12 April 2026 After a gap of 50 years, human beings have gone beyond the earth's orbit, orbited the moon and are safely back on earth - Artemis II. Astounding feat! Congratulations to the NASA led Artemis II mission. The crew are: Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen. That is a first in my adult lifetime as I was around 10 years old in December 1972 when Apollo 17 mission happened which was the last previous 'crewed' mission that went beyond low Earth orbit. I don't recall being aware of it at the time, though surely I would have read about it, seen it on TV, or been told about it then. It just did not leave a strong enough mark on my brain for me to recall it now over 50 years later. "During their lunar flyby, the (Artemis II) crew set the record for human distance from Earth, 252,756 miles (406,771 km), breaking Apollo 13's record of 248,655 miles (400,171 km).", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_II.

Very enjoyable and useful review session with ChatGPT on spiritual post update

I had a very enjoyable review session with ChatGPT free-tier today, 29 Jan. 2026, on an update to  a previous spiritual post on this blog . ChatGPT (CG) did a great job of analysing my update from content accuracy and consistency point of view. Its detailed remarks helped confirm that my update would be easy to read and understand for a reader. Further, CG's review remarks prompted me to better explain my experience of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba's (Swami) miracles by adding the word, ecstasy, to thrill, giving the phrase 'ecstatically thrilling' which captured my experience much better than simply thrill. CG's review remarks for this change validated that change very well. CG was able to relate to my Swami experiences very well. That made the exchange very pleasant. I also found ChatGPT's English language usage to be very good in its review remarks and that gave me a lot of pleasure. I enjoy good usage of language. I thought some readers may enjoy this exchang...

Spiritual Update: Happiest periods of my life now are when I am into Deeper Dissolve (into God) Sadhana zone; Handling health challenges

Last updated on 29 Jan. 2026 Note: I am simply sharing some aspects of my spiritual journey in this free social media post. The sole motivation for putting up this post is that it may be of interest to some reader(s), now or in future. The last update post I put up was in Sept-Oct. 2025: Got some mental clarity about how I, as single spiritual aspirant, should handle health challenges; Sensitive parts coded; Current main goals .

Jan. 2026 Update: I continue to be steady in Dissolve into God Sadhana (DIGS).  Main prompts that I typically use nowadays: When required, before I get to the main prompts, I precede it by short Who am I? / What is my reality? question quickly leading to me focusing on my unchanging awareness (awareness-I). ... This alone is the lasting truth; All else is passing show. This is optionally followed by: This I (awareness-I) is th...
