Three simple words ‘Keep in Touch’, but they tell the whole story of one’s need for relationship. Why? Human journey for this relationship is rooted in one’s connectivity with the body, mind and the soul. This I propose to show in this chapter. I have divided the chapter into three sections. In the first section I will ask you to visualize a collection of body cells, all scattered, without any connection in-between. Will the body survive? No. As such, seminar on ‘connectivity’ becomes absurd. Imagine that the connection is there and the so-called body survives; the seminar takes place as parented by the participants which is yet another form of connection. Thus, everyone is a link in the web of relationship, relating one to one’s own self and to others. Without this bonding, human society will collapse. How do we keep human society interconnected vis-à-vis alive? Though there are various media for connection, yet those impersonal relationships do not satisfy us. I do not criticize them but the best way to touch one’s heart is through love and sympathy acting as glue to keep us together, just as Higgs-bosons, God particle sustain the mass of the matter, otherwise we would have collided and exhausted.
