A Thirst

With a Heavy Heart, I walked upon

Lonely, Heart deserted and thirsty

A moment of melancholy pushed the soul deep in repression

In a way pressurizing for a solution

Not knowing the way, I still walked alone

More secluded and buried deep in contemplation

Occasionally dispersing among the clouds

Misting away in evening gloom’s delight

As walked more and more, legs begged rest

I solaced my legs and wearied mind under a tree's crest

Looked upon, looked beneath, glanced all around

And Closed the eyes hoping none to surround

Various images filled my mind’s pane-

Withering leaves, evolving time, days and nights

Young and Old, Body and Soul;

Virtues and Sins; choices and changes;

I let go all of them

One after another, One over another

They flashed, disappeared and re-appeared

Until soothing breeze emanated from within

I started paying attention to this mystery within

Not in my control, Breeze flowed better and better

Making the burden of my soul lighter and lighter

I asked what is next as all appeared to be a mist

Breeze flowered out

Bridging the within and without

I am in the middle as the fragrance' let-out

Offered at the Glorious One's profound

Silence spoke the secret of the mystics

In expression subtle and exquisite

I am became my Own

In identifying with the Truth of the One who truly owns

Deciphering secret codes of silence

My heart merged with the Universal resilience

Amidst the ever moving and unmoving galaxies

I found alone again but joyously with a thirst of different buoyancy!

If there is anything ...

If there is anything to be done, let it be within me! If anyone who needs change, it's only me! What outside me, stays in my control? Who outside me, plays well, my role? How tiring the job of seeking to fix everything but me? How futile yearning to build a garden without sweat mine? I am the wound, I am the healing; I am the question, I am the answer! I am the logic, I am the magic; I am the cause, I am the effect! The Great Mother has put the macrocosm in this tiny microcosm! Weilder of great powers, wields Her arrows through this bow! This heart, Thy abode, Thy gift! Beginning of all Joy, end of all misery! The breeze that moves, flowers that dance, joy that stills,  Fragrance that sings, is all Thou, My beholder!

Face the fear

Greatest truth is revealed when we face our deepest fears! As windmills of time ripen the fruit open to reveal the seed. The journey of evolution is turbulently spiral; For the firmest resolution to ascend, is cyclical. We enjoy, we forget; we struggle, we remember; Who escapes this design but for the one who soar! Behold your friends, still they may desert you; Behold the trust, still it would betray you; Plans after plans crumbles as pack of cards, Destiny after mutiny, hides in the light of stars; In this game, the illusion of leading is veil of struggle; Fame and shame, convolves pain with every purpose. What you do when winds stop breezing you? How do you move when lethargy stalls binding you? Talk empty philosophies & inherited glories of past? Or walk in crowd, heads straight as if no shadows last? My friend, my soul, I am seeing you from within; I stayed within you, before you knew yourself. I have read your journey before your first step. You may cover yourself...

Heart in Pain

What's the best music I can hear?   It's the silence within my own self,   Finding contentment in solitude.   Let this divine melody   Wrap the world in harmony. Yunus says no worship is worthwhile   If it breaks a single heart   Where the Beloved resides. Rumi advises,   "Let the heart break open   For light to enter." Here, dwijaha says,   "Let a thousand hearts break,   Let them blame you for their pain.   Bless them all in your heart,   For you are the medicine   That heals every heart & soul."
