Poems, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

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

The Boundless

Quotes, , , ,

Life, as in existentially is always one with everything. It is our human perception which thinks we are an individual.

We all capture some amount of life. It is like a soap bubble we blew when we were kids, every time we blew soap bubbles it was bigger or smaller according to how much air it captured.

In the same way each and every human being captures life. It is upon every individual to capture the life in its full intensity if they want to be a full fledged human being or else you can be a mediocre human being.

It is very easy to be a mediocre person. But if you want to become a person which changes every one’s life in a small or big way, YOU have to become full of life with a full involvement and unwavering focus.

It is upon you whether you want to be boundless or be in your own prison.

A human being is like a seed. Either you can keep it as it is, or you can make it a wonderful tree With flowers and fruits.
