Completed morning program.
Venita is 64 today. She received a number of telephone calls wishing her 'Happy Birthday' till about midnight since morning. It being Ekadasi, we kept fast. I visited temple and prayed for good health to her. Then I went to a long ailing man in the Society and promised to help him in treatment on the day. Venita met Neha and Sunita at Dillihat . They had especially come from Gurgaon to meet and wish her. Had lunch in the restraunt at ISCON temple, East of Kailash. They serve food which can be taken on Ekadasi. It was delicious and cost Rs.450/- per person. The ambiance of the place was unique The chanting of Hare Krishna Hare Ram went on without interruption. Quite a few people were taking food. It is served every day from 12.30 to 3.30 pm. Breakfast and dinner are also served at fixed timings. During our stay in the restraunt, a recently married Muslim couple came. They too took food. The woman was in Burqa. She removed it from the face in the restraunt. An accompanying man took quite a few snaps of the couple from different angles. I foresaw an inclusive growth of a tolerant society in the episode in future in the country.
On way back, we had a cup of coffee at Cafe Coffee Day at Janakpuri. We had planned a quiet candlelight dinner at Hilton, Janakpuri in the night. We abandoned the idea due to fast.
When Venita was at Dillihat. I visited CGHS and spent sometime in the chamber.
News of the day : "Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who turned 70 today, says he never cared about his popularity but believed that one's outlook towards life matters the most."Every human being will go through a phase when there are highs and lows. Everything that goes up also comes down. I don't think I am particularly different from anyone. We all have our highs and lows." PTI News on line, dt 11.10.2012
Retired to sleep at 10.45 pm.
