Love is the key...

Not any missile, no sharp words

No boundaries, not any magic spell

Nothing in the world is as powerful as love itself

Love, love from the bottom of your heart

Love without any limit, without any doubt

Without any attachment to the mundane facts

Be a sun, let love be your rays;

Be a cloud, let the love rain

Shower your loved ones, wash away their pains

Love your beloveds, and those strangers

And to those who brought some pain

Love the universe, as it’s a form of yourself

Love yourself while loving others,

Never expect from others

What you can give to yourself

Never stop giving, what you’ve to offer

You’re unique, and much needed

Never let doubts mask your true nature

The real you can make a difference

The universe has a magical bank account

Every penny of love you spend

Comes back to you

 With an increase of several folds

Be assured, you’re always cared for

Your needs are always met,

and so are your desires

Love comes in several forms

Just learn to be open,

never close your heart

Don’t narrow down

The sources of love to you; listen,

Even the air you breathe and the water

Say, “I love you” all the time

Love is the key, the map

And your guide to your dreamland

Love is the magic, the currency

The biggest power to transform

Thank the universe

For bringing love into your life

Take every opportunity

to celebrate the love in your heart

The truth...

The truth is that we all are special. The universe values our uniqueness, it nurtures it, adores it, cares for it, and designs circumstances to develop it… it also weeds out things coming in the way of our true development. Some things have to go away, some goodbyes are mandatory, some relationships complete their courses, so do some aspects of our personality. I’m no more the clueless rebel driving at the speed of hundred wearing a reverse cap with some hanky tied around her neck; it’s not that I’ve grown any softer, but I don’t feel the need to wear that bravado to hide my inner child anymore. The tougher and wiser I become, the more comfortable I feel in exposing my true loving nature. When the insecurities drop, our true nature gets a chance to emerge. Doubts and insecurities are babies of ignorance, lack of knowledge, and too much emphasis on the separateness; they’re products of faulty reasoning based on insufficient information; like clouds, they block our insight, like viruses, they suppress our true nature, and convert us into power seeking zombies— alive, but not living their lives. There’s more in the world than our minds can sense, there’s more magic in the universe than we’re taught to believe in. I guess it’s only the heart that has the capacity to sense the reality around us. It’s our job to be true to our hearts, to keep on tending to it, to jump when it wants to jump and to stop when it wants to stop, without getting attached to the circumstances, without calculating the consequences.

It’s beyond the beliefs, the truth, it’s beyond the thoughts; beliefs can change every once in a while, thoughts wobble all the time, but the truth is true all the time, whether we know it or not, it’s stable, whether we appreciate it or not. Dreams are the premonitions of where we’re going to land up; desires are the hints of the experiences waiting for us, provided that we’re not falling for our ego trips. There’s no need to fight for our wishes, no need to waste energy in trying to flow upstream, in fact these are indications of some faulty thinking; our lives are designed to be with the flow, it’s when we surrender completely and let go of the insecure pride we’re taken to our destiny. Right things happen, right persons come, right paths are taken only when the right time arrives; the growth process is very fast in fact, unless if we block it with fear driven attempts of some artificial standardized speed up.

Sometimes I do feel confused a bit, a bit stressed, like the superman or spiderman just getting aware of his supernatural powers; but the responsibility coming with this power is a bit simpler than that of those comics’ celebrities; we just have to be aware of and true to our core nature. We’re all unique, and very powerful, the power is in the uniqueness, we’ve to respect it that of ourselves and that of others. There’s no ‘standard’, no one is better than another; the competitions for some standard are proofs of ignorance, it’s up to us how much we feed to such ignorance. Some people are trapped in the insecurities, lost in the battles, struggling for false pride, ignorant, completely unaware of their true nature; we can’t change others, they’ll awaken when their time comes, our job is not to try to convince them, but just to be ourselves and keep on walking on our own true roads.

When we stop struggling and start walking on our true road, somehow some magic happens, things start falling into place, people start being awakened, boundaries start dissolving on their own, deserts start embracing the spring… all of a sudden we realize that life does make sense, it’s our dream since ages that’s taking a solid shape.

when the past gets undone

How I don’t know, but a magical moment arrived

Like an eraser to wipe out years from my life

Cobwebs disappeared, the tangles got solved

Things got unlearned, as my past got undone

Now I look into the mirror

And see a baby full of wonders

Free of responsibilities and worries

Surrounded in warmth, completely assured

To me, things happen on their own

My job is to play around… and have fun

I don’t care what people call me

They’ve to respect my rules, to be with me

Innocent inexperienced happy child

Unexposed to harsh realities of adult life

Immersed constantly in love and joy

I don’t know how hatred feels like

I’ve enthusiasm, the will to find out

And the freedom to quit the game, when I get bored

No ambitions, no big dreams

I play to enjoy just this moment of my life

Mirror says then, “wait a minute dear,

Your image doesn’t fit into expected baby’s picture.”

I answer, “that’s the point my friend,

From all expected norms, I’ve got divorced.”

“But usually babies don’t look like this.”

It continues to complain…

“Maybe usually they don’t,” I say…

 “but they do at this moment.”

I exist beyond my mind...

Like a feather

Having a weightless flight

I find myself

Enjoying my life

                          

Free and energetic

Like breeze of the wind

It’s so easy

Reaching the heights

No seriousness

No worries and stresses

I’m an ocean

Filled completely with joy

No past grudges

No future plans

I relax             

As this moment is mine

No ambitions

No causes to fight for

I’m a traveler

Enjoying trip of this life

Like a baby

Carefree and curious

I’m here

Only to play my part

No expectations

No demands and norms

I’m happy

With who I am

No obsessions

No needs to cry for

Chasing is over

 I'm not attached

I was waiting, for this moment to arrive

Finally, I’m completely out of my mind…

 … It’s not that I’ve gone mad,                 

But I realize that I exist beyond my mind…

the passion for this life...

There comes a moment in life, when we quit everything, we drop all our needs, and get away from all attachments… it’s the moment when we become aware, when we get to know ourselves. When we sense our completeness, our fullness, when we surrender to our higher self, the moment becomes life, it becomes eternal, when the sense of past seems like a small script in some story and future an illusion. Things or circumstances or even people just become incapable of making us happy or sad or worried, when we sense the endless joy at our core occupying all our presence. The presence expands then to involve everything in the universe within itself, and the sense of oneness gives stability to the mind.

On the verge of being dissolved, the identity calls us back to the separated existence—small little name, a body, a bunch of experiences and some relations… this separated existence too then makes sense, maybe there’s some purpose for this life experience. Desires are there but no needs, dreams are there but no compulsions, love is there but no attachments, overwhelming passion is there for creating something from this human existence, but there’s no stress. A calmness, stillness, assurance and contentment fill the mind; the heart lights up and shows the pathway. Our job is then to follow the directions, and just have some courage to be ourselves.

There’s a reason for this life experience, and the universe cares a lot about what we really want to experience in this lifetime… it works hard day and night in its mysterious ways to make us to feel fulfilled, what we have to do is to just get out of its way. Yah we do tend to block its way when we calculate, when we think about needs and chase them, when we judge things and try to conform to some norms at the expense of not being ourselves.  Statistics and probability are very good tools in labs, they are the basis of research and I love them, but in real life, they’re useless. The brain may say that there’s only one in thousandth chance of getting something, but the heart just pushes us to that direction; a ‘wise’ person (or a robot?) can’t take that risk (instead for them there are many ‘safer’ options), but a follower of the heart does take it; and guess what, advice from heart always pays off, the follower gets the thing in spite of all the odds.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether we get the thing or not, because it’s not our job, it’s the job of the universe, our job is just to be true to our hearts and be ourselves, and enjoy this moment of existence as it’s such a great chance. Nope, this isn’t a selfish thought, because the best way we can affect the lives of our loved ones, the best way we can have impact on this universe, and the best way we can bring out the changes in humankind the way we desire is by being ourselves for every moment of our lives. I too am one of those who stay awake at nights sometimes, but it’s not the stress that keeps me awake, instead it’s the passion for this life.

Tribute to The Sweet One

Silence speaks

And life makes sense

Oh sweet one

In your presence

Thoughts come

As if there’s some race

When things compete

To bring smile on my face

How warm it is

The embrace of the sky

How safe it is

The pat of the wind

Tingling breeze

Evokes fountains of joy

How nice it is

To have you around

No pride

No selfishness

In your arms

There’s only love and joy

Bathing me

Clearing my mind

Your beats

Fill me with life

Sweet soothing

Whisper with my mind

Reminds me

The purpose of being alive

Boundaries dissolve

Ego melts down

When sense of oneness

Expands my presence

With you every word

is an expression of joy

and every breathe

a celebration of life

I surrender oh nature

To the beauty of thy

My mind is curious

To understand your mind

The story of life...

There comes a time when we believe in everything,

When skepticism falls, the heart sees better things

Fairy tales happen here, not in some different world

We can sense them, if we change our angle

Miracles are part of everyday life

Keep smiling, maybe it’s happening right now

Angels and witches aren’t some myth,

Look with mind’s eye, they do come handy

Spells work, things do get transformed

Curses are there, but remedies are nice

Flowers sing and they ooze smile

Gentle breeze can be the musician of the mind

There exists the stream of endless joy

And the trigger bringing it to the outside

Villains come, but with big weak points

Just kill that bird and happy ending arrives

No wounded healers, no sad knights

Remember, we’re the princesses or princes of our lives

Story of life is really interesting… Have patience,

Who knows, right now the climax may be happening…
