Devotion

Devotion has been the core part of Indian culture. People like Ramanujan, Poet Kalidas, Swami Vivekanand and many more where the ardent devotees. Which became successful not only in their career but in life itself.

When you are in devotion ‘you’ don’t exist then the object of devotion becomes a huge part of you. Object of devotion can be your Guru, God, Work or just life.

Devotion is the sweetest way to live. Because in devotion everything becomes sweet. But to be a devotee you must be like a child not judging each and every person you encounter. You must pull of the plug from the likes and dislike. If you are like this something bigger than you will take care of you.

There are numerous stories of bhakti (devotion) where the god came to rescue for the devotee in their hard times. For example:

Poosalar was a sage who lived in a town in South India. The king of that area was building a huge Shiva temple. After many years of work, the temple was nearing completion. The night before the opening ceremony of the temple, which was the king’s lifetime’s ambition, Shiva appeared in his dream and said, “I will not be able to come to your temple’s inauguration because Poosalar has built another temple in the same town. I need to go there. He is also opening it tomorrow.”

The king woke up with a fright, because after he has strived to build this temple for so many years, after so much money and effort, Shiva says he has to go to some other temple built by Poosalar in the same town. “Who is this Poosalar and which is this temple that I do not know about?” He went searching for Poosalar.

After a lot of searching, they found Poosalar, a cobbler by profession, in a small hut. In those days, being a cobbler was a profession that was looked down upon. The king went and asked him, “Where is your temple? Shiva says he is going to go to your temple, not mine. Where is it?” Poosalar said, “I just built it in my mind.”

Every brick, every stone, he slowly built it for many years in his mind, and that is more of a reality than what you build with stone and brick.

So this is the power of devotion.Be in devotion and let life happen to you more intensely

An Empty Slate

Nowadays many people say that certain things happened in their life because it was their fate.

But life happens from within and whatever happens outside cannot be controlled, but you only have choice on how you react on it.

But in a deeper sense, if you are happy and blissful in your body and mind then whatever happens outside, you won’t be effected.

And when you become conscious of life within you, you can write your destiny the way you want it. But many people go by fate and get failed in life or they don’t achieve what they want to. And when they don’t live as they want they say life is hell.

Life is not a means to some end somewhere in the future. Life is its own end, its own means. Life is all.

Consciousness, the way to be


As a human just try to be available to that book. Reading it, is your choice but being available to it is the nature’s choice. Do not restrict it by your thoughts and emotion.

Consciousness is the way life functions around you. Everything around us including our body has been made by the five elements- Earth, Fire, Air,Water and space.

What is the Difference between an animal and a Human being ?

We all do same actions prevailing in the nature; but the difference is, we can do it by being conscious while animals cannot. If you become conscious, then many things that you never know will be in your perspective and you may feel like a super human. But it is not about being super human, but to know that being human is super!

The intelligence behind making a tree, body or an animal is called consciousness. In India, there where many wonderful being which made the use of consciousness to flourish human well being.

Swami Vivekananda and Gautama Buddha are among those people. In every person this life force is dormant and many people die like that way only without even tasting it.

How to get into that consciousness ?

Life As A Novel

The creator has created the life beautifully with utmost care and love. It is us, who make it ugly with our desires. When you wake up in the morning and you are alive isn’t it beautiful. On this planet earth every morning around half a dozen of people lose their lives. How fortunate are we!

The creation is not same as the day before and it is not going to be same ever. This moment is inevitable and will never be repeated.

The concoction of mind can keep humans busy forever. But the time has come when we should look at ourselves more than our body and our mind.

Body is the accumulation of the food that you have eaten and mind is the accumulation of information that you have gathered till now. So when we see the life around us and perceive it in the way as it flows by becoming available to our consciousness. Then we will become joyful and happiest generation by ourselves.

Only the individual can rise to the heights of consciousness and awareness. The more you belong to the crowd,the deeper you fall into  darkness.

FULL MOON

Full moon or Pournami (purnima) as said in India, has been very significant in many cultures all around the globe. Each and every position of the moon has an impact in us, humans and nature.

As said in this poem because of the full moon, the forest became more alive. The effect of full moon can be seen perfectly in water bodies for example, oceans becomes furious. And as the human body contains 60% of water the changes also occur in us, humans.

The significant change that happen on a human body was on Gautama Buddha and that day, every year is celebrated as Buddha purnima in various countries.

Intoxication or soma is the nature of moon. On the full moon night, immerse yourself in the grace of  the moonlight, to be inebriated with fullness of life.

Travelling in a Train

undefined (1)

This poem reminds me of the spectacular views that I see and beautiful people I meet during my travel in train. It is so wonderful to meet the people who we don’t know anything about, but for a little while we forget about ourselves and share our beautiful experiences. Travelling in a train is my favorite way of transport.
