Life Lessons in Random!

Flowers, the soul has seen falling,
but falling leaves a wonder in itself!
Life full of misery, participating, a gift, he said!
Pain, ring true to soul,
cloud nine, an escape...

Butterfly, three in number,

a beautiful moment, Lily, thus had felt!

Writing a beautiful journey of soul,
make the most of it and make it whole!
World waits for one to spill,
Spill the wonder that one holds!

Nature has one lesson to teach then,
Life revolves and comes to an end.
Every end, then a new beginning, for true soul!
For that which awaits, awaits to take a new course...

We are made of Love, long forgotten,
a reminiscence, when touched by loving souls!
Love that lies within us and not somewhere out,
Only when finds the fountain of love 

flowing within and through...

can one truly receive and give Love whole-heartedly!
Love Light Peace

Nothing-Everything: Ing-g*

The most beautiful part of morning walk
is when one meets and connects with one’s inner self!
Crow calling out, as the neck tried to crane and behold
Mocked lovingly, “Lazy Girl, keep moving, 

don’t stop...”hehehhehe…
the soul acknowledged and bowed…

Red whiskered bulbul in pair it saw
enjoying the sun rays, in silence it felt!
Three coppersmith, what a sight to behold
trepie rufous made an appearance from nowhere!
Jungle prinia in single,
showed her gymnastic skill on metallic fence
three others to behold, in consistent chatter!

Drongo, alighted itself in front
how much it loved it, hard to explain!
A beautiful day and lot to do the soul thought
Nature amazing to behold and be in Love!

Finishing the morning core,
 as the soul sat down calmly to pray…
Echo of the vibration was multiple
nothing existed, save for the vibration itself!

The morning flew, with task taken in hand
talk with an old friend, who lived far…

Talk of yellow, green leaves
and appearance of mystical number it was!

Numbers that have been showing up
most of the time, as guidance and alliance!
Alliance with universe: 11:11, 12: 21 and 08:08 at times!

Mystery of Universe, unraveling in nothingness
nothingness in everything appearing everywhere!

Participants engage in nothingness
that nothingness is everything in itself!

Mystery ravels-unravels of its own accord
sign and symbol, a trace of magic in life!
Realizing that when it’s for nothingness
one finds everything around in that nothingness!

Evening, a stunning experience it was!
Dumbstruck the soul sat staring
at the vibration rising up from the ground…
Fear there was none, the soul feeling strange
wanting to hug, the wild in Nature with Love
hahahahha…uncanny silly soul…laughed out loud!

Night, a slow withdrawal it was
Vibration and frequency of love all around!
Overwhelmed by the happening of day,
tears rolled down with silent prayer…
May the light of day be brighter the next day!
Namaste and Love _/\_

Flowing Sindhu Vs Smashing Marin

Olympic games at Rio, a destination,

For game lovers and spectacle of human spirit!

Every event, heroic in itself,

But, when it comes to one's country,

One feels proud to watch the moment.

The blood ringing in the ears,

When one observes, flowing Sindhu,

sweeping off Marin in first set.

Winning of first set of game,
amidst distracting flash, screams and shouts!

Umpires, unsatisfied they looked,

A calm game, it should be,

They must have thought...

Warning again and again,

In second set of game it poured!

A smart chase it was

Smashing of cork one heard

In deafening silence, when one served...

A move towards the win for Smashing Marin,

a dialogue to the self...

Third game, what a chase it was

Marin moving to point 8

Flowing Sindhu, giving her hard time,

10-10 and a change of court.

Oh! The lucky court slipped off

Some might have thought...

A true player, plays the game

No matter, who wins or lose.

A beautiful game of beautiful spirit

Lesson it is, be it game or life:

When swept off by the flow

Smash it, stay up and keep saying:

"This is it, I am there!"

A gold in Olympic for Smashing Marin

Sparkling Silvery Sindhu,

Smiled it all Home!

A proud moment for both countries,

Congrats to Sport Spirit, Congrats to both!

Namaste _/\_

Sadness and Happiness: A Part of Life!

When one lives life in Now,
many events one notices unfolding!
Sometimes family, sometime friends
waves, as time, breaks through life!

 Father, the superman, infirm, unsettles the gut
prayer and prayer, soul prays to heal!
A day flies off with disturbance and chaos
rain in the evening, as if all settles it down!

Morning, a beautiful, to look forward
A friend, natural smile, touched the soul!
Tears streaming in eyes, alive it felt
All is going to be fine, the heart, thus said!

Illusion, if this life is, is meant to be lived…
Vibration of positivity, as if had spread!
It is going to be a beautiful day,
and, so it was and is!

 When one remains in present
Life, solves half of the problem!
One after another, it did,
what was to be done…

Good news, a neighbor did have,
happy it was, in its happiness!
Smile, it was, and a beautiful smile,
to treasure, close to the soul!

A Friend, hilarious, made the soul laugh,
Laughed and laughed…
“till-until,” the soul ended up being sad!
Thought of the moments that will never be same
Better to be and live in now, the soul said!

 Synchronizing of spicy food, filled the soul,
the smell so strong, as if the soul, had no choice at all!
Good news, another, did roll out,
carry on, until, the final, call comes!

As the soul, relaxes and prepares
for another day, yet to come!
The soul, revels in the music,
played outside the window, by rain drops!

As if the tuning of Nature,
has been set forth…

Reminding the soul of dancing leaves,
when once, the soul was sad!
Realizing, everything, a part and parcel of soul
Living it, completely, the way it comes,
the Only comfort!

Hanuman Chalisa: The forty Chaupais of Lord Hanuman! (Translation)

Purifying the mind with dust of lotus feet Lord Ram,
  the soul sings, unblemished glory, of that Raghuraj Ram.
One who bestows fruits four-fold:
Dharma, Artha, Kama and Liberation well-known!

Considering me foolish,
Harken son of Wind God! Almighty, Hanuman!
Bless me with strength, intelligence and knowledge,
removing the imperfection in me, calm this restless mind!

Victory to Almighty Hanuman,
Master who is to an ocean of Wisdom and Virtues!
Victory to the King of Monkeys,
who illuminates all three worlds!

Messenger of Lord Ram,
possessor of incomparable strength...
Son of Anjani at times,
blessings of Vayu, “Son of Wind,” you are called!

Mahavir, the greatest, among brave and deeds
Remover of ruthless thoughts,
a companion, of good deed you are known!

Transparent-resplendent, physique indomitable,
Ear rings and curly hair, you are adorned with!

Mighty hands; powerful and strong…
Flag of success, you carry all along!
Sacred munja thread, your shoulder is adorned with!

Reflection of Shiva, Son of Keshari, the king,
inheritor of majestic aura, revered you are…
throughout the world!

Epitome of Knowledge: Wise, Virtuous and Clever…
Keen to work for Lord Ram, all being that, One Ram!
Hearing his holy name, your soul finds bliss,
Ram, Lakshman and Sita,
resides in whose mind, heart and soul!

As Dwarf you present yourself,
in front of Sita, the Goddesses!
Bhima form, the ogres you slay…
effortlessly completing the task of Lord Ram, thus!

Fetching Sanjeevani, helped heal Lakshman, back to life,
Overwhelmed with joy,
Sri Raghu veer embrace you close!
Rama, the descendant of Raghuraj,
praises you profusely, thus:

“Thou art dearest, as brother, Bharata!”

"Your glory and splendor, will be sung by many,"
saying this he embraced him again!

Sanak sage with Brahma, Narad, Sharad,
Yama, Kubera and God of eight directions…
Fail to narrate, the infinite glory of such greatness!

Rendering a great service to Sugrivaha,
help him meet Lord Ram and his kingdom!

Vibhisan, when followed your suggestion
eventually, came to be known as King of Lanka!

Sun God, situated miles and miles away from earth
yet swallowing it as sweet food,
shows your greatness, Oh Mahavir Lord!

Placing the ring of Lord Rama in your mouth,
it’s no wonder you crossed the Ocean, so long!
All unattainable tasks in the world
becomes easier when one has your blessings,
Mahavir, the Lord!

Custodian at the door of Lord Ram,
entrance to which you are the key!

Bliss can be felt, when one takes refuge in you...
Protector, as and when you stand
petrified, what should be ever of, anything or anyone!

 

 And, when you roar out loud, remembering your powers
Three worlds tremble, terrorized all stand!
Ghosts, devils and evil-doers, do not venture near
on hearing the sole name of Lord Mahavira!

 

 Destroying ailment and eliminating suffering and pain
when one takes to chanting, the name of valiant Hanuman!
Liberating us, from all kind of adversities
Remember him, if we: with pure heart, action and words!

 

  Amongst the supreme King is Lord Rama
effortlessly completing his task!
And who-so-ever comes to you, with wishes untold
Will find their wishes fulfilled, in this very birth!

 

All the four yugas, a witness to your glory
well-known and illuminating, throughout the world!
Protector to mendicants and saints
Destroyer of demons, dearest to Lord Ram!

 

Bestower of eight Sidhis and nine Nidhis
Boon bestowed to you, by Mother Janaki herself!
The devotion of Lord Rama is your treasure
to be known as herald of Lord Ram, your pleasure!

Your devotion, reaches Lord Ram
Pain and suffering of all births, one forgets!
In the end, abode of Lord Ram as one takes
Birth as devotee to Lord Hari, one celebrates!

 

Even if one doesn’t contemplate on other God,
and thinks of You, Hanuman!
You bring bliss not only in this world,
but that which lies beyond!

 

 Liberated from all kinds of pain and suffering,
one who listens to the name of Great Hanuman!
Victorious thou, Victorious thou, Victorious thou,
Lord Hanuman!

 
May we be blessed with loving grace, as a Guru does
reveling in the knowledge of devotion to Lord Ram!

One who recites Hanuman Chalisa,
liberates from all kind of bondage…
Attaining bliss, by Lord Shiva itself!

 

Doha

Tulsidas a devotee, to Lord Hari, thus prays,
“Make my heart, your Abode,” he says!

"O Son of Wind, Remover of Adversities!
One with an auspicious form, and chief among-st, all Gods!

Reside in our hearts,
along with Lord Ram, Lakshman and Goddesses Sita!"
Jai Shri Ram!!! Jai Hanuman!!!
