Gratefulness

I'm grateful..For all these momentswhen i feel the ocean of peacein my heart..Those moments..of just being..Completely listening to musicexpressing and singing it in silencefully feeling it with the singer and words..Nothing else seems to exist, does it?!Why seek anything elsewhen there's this ocean within your own heart?!(Help me remember this, whenever i forget..)

Solitude

Alone..The whirring fan..Slight cool air from the open window..A distant sound from vehicles now and then..The breaths going on..and this writing..Nothing else exists right now..Nowhere to go,nothing to do,not even the phone or laptop,not even the people..Just these sounds and cool airand lightand pen moving..Just this feeling alive..Just being..without any identityor memoriesor roles..i'm not a…

Day after day

Day after day passes,one turbulent,another quiet..What does it all matter?It keeps passing,and i just keep watching..Few years ago,i was trying to understand lifeand didn't know what i was to do..Even now,i don't know what i'm supposed to be doing..but what can i do,i'm a being, not doing..All i know is to be..Just be..Everything else just…

Whoever brought me here – Rumi poem

All day i think  about it, then at night i say it.. Where did i come from, and what am i supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, i'm sure of that, and i intend to end up there.   This drunkenness began in some other tavern. When i…

Only You

The nightafter the rain..A slight lightfrom the window..The quietness..The darkness..and the music..Thoughts whirl around for a whilefeelings too..And then quietness..Do they matter anyways..They don\'t,nothing does...Everything is in constant motionchanging,the dust particles dance in the light,the fan sweeps the air around,the breath goes in and out...Nothing remains constant, always,except You..why don\'t we then run to You?why…

Lo, I am with you always – Rumi poems

Lo, I am with you always, you promised that, and when I realized that it was true, my soul flared up. Any unhappiness comes from forgetting. Remember, and be back close with the friend.. ******* Poem, song, and story, the stream sweeps by, moving along what was never mine anyway. What I have done through…

Don’t want anything at all

I dont want anything of this..I dont want anything at all..Nothing nothing nothing..I dont want anything at all..Sick and tired of everything and everyone,even this body..I dont want anything at all..Not even these tears,not even this sun shining outside.not even hope,not even this lifeor love..I dont want anything at all..Keep me on my knees,shatter me…

Meditation

Meditation..When nothing else exists,when the mind is so quiet,without emotions,without thoughts..just the blanknessand nothingness..that is so calming..Coz nothing else ever existed..Everything else comes and goes,we become so entangled in all thiswhich is temporary,forgettingthis vast blankness,awareness,the source..   And meditation..Even just a few moments,and the ego drops,with all its wantings and not wantings,who are you to…

Airports and coffee

Finally..Aloneness..Even among people on the airport..Yet the slight peacefulnesstiptoeing along..What is it about traveling alone..Switching off the phone and internet..Just the music..And You..Thousand places..Thousand people..So many stories..Yet You..Only You..is all i can see...Coz nothing of this all ever existswithout You..And they tell me You are here..Here.. There..i cant stop finding you everywhere..in these little moments..in…

Love said to me (Rumi)

I worship the moon.Tell me of the soft glow of a candle lightand the sweetness of my moon.Don’t talk about sorrow,tell me of that treasure,hidden if it is to you,then just remain silent.Last night I lost my grip on realityand welcomed insanity.Love saw me and said,I showed up.Wipe your tearsand be silent.I said, O Love…

Nothing ever exists

Nothing ever exists without You..These clouds, sky,leaves, wind,earth, water, flowersand rain..Nothing exists without You..Even these buildings, cars,traffic, people,shops, dresses,marriages and shopping..Nothing exists without You..Yethow easily we forget You..Going on n on n onin everyday life,not even stopping for a tiny momentto remember, to see, to feel Youthere You arein each and every moment,in each and…

These moments

Darkness..These 4 walls..The air from the fangently falling on the skinlike raindrops..And a few momentsof utter peacefulness..Maybe this is what i came all the way here for..Just these few moments..Who am i?Have i changed or still the same?Do i ever change?It's the people and surroundingsthat keep on changing like seasons..And me,i'm still here..The same i…

Girnar

Girnar..Looking at the lights on its stepsfrom afar,i'm teary and happy at the same time..What is it about this place?What is it about the air here?The mountain and the lake..Just being around herein this air,stirs something in the heart..That knowingness?All those years of childhood?This bond i have with themas if they are alive...All those years when…

Same old

Back to the same oldand it doesn't feel the same..Maybe the same..All it reminds is of last year,the strugglesthe peaceful moments,the aloneness..Mind can't stop comparingthen and now..no peacefulness,only work, people, things to do,places to go..no rest...Agitated ripples all over again..Feeling detached..Yet don't want to do anything to let this detachment go..Don't want any hope,don't want…

Be still

When you don't know the answers,what to do,which way to go,confess all your problems and worriessay out what bothers youand Be Still...The answers will come..Listen..and Be still...                                              Be Still - The Fray (lyrics)How…

Crushes

Back to having crusheson people from afar,back to having crusheson fictional charactersand music..Back to where we began..Round n round we go..One more yearending and beginning..Maybe no endings, no beginnings..A continuous round n round..All i can say is,Thank You..and thank you..and thank you..for just being there..

Peacefulness

When there is no inner conflict about anything,is it peacefulness?When there is no holding on or letting go of anything,is it peacefulness?When the body and mind are relaxed,even though the situations are the same tensed,is it peacefulness?When you're content with everything as it is,not wanting to change a single thing,is it peacefulness?
