He....as the guiding light :)

Who are we, why are we here, who sent us, where will we be going?...........

Nobody knows but everybody ponders. Saints have their own theories, science has its own justifications. But the matter of the fact is, we do not have an answer which actually, ‘is an answer’.

But we cannot stop living because we don’t know where we are heading to. We need not also, because there is one thing which is enough to keep us going, which is enough to give purpose to our life and which actually does. That thing is, ‘the guiding light’. The guiding light which surrounds us all, which moves us all, which gives meaning to us all.

We haven’t seen it, coz it never discloses its presence by saying it all. It, in its own surreptitious and ambrosial way of making things realise, throws light on the way which it wants us to tread.

It takes the form of sun which awakes and fills us with endurance at the start of a beautiful day, and the wind that slowly combs our hairs and discloses the divine truth, ‘keep moving, coz that is your destiny’. Or the food we eat saying as you need food for survival, this world too needs good deeds from us all to persist.

It takes the form of bad experiences, teaching us the conscientious way of executing things. Or sometime bountiful experiences, telling that there is always a better part of life.

The way it ensures that someone is always there when we are low, and makes us available when someone else is deceived by life. The way it silently touches us in form of our lovers thought, when we are alone and the way it makes us feel alone & abandoned when we deviate.

It is there as our mother taking care when we are ill, as grass to support when we fall and a stranger to give strength while walking alone at night on a dark road.

Supporting as a father when we grow and as a son when we are old. Manifesting as a miracle at time the doctors give up and a flame of wisdom from elders when hard times turn up.

The all pervasive ‘the guiding light’............ which leaves no need for us to worry, but to just keep moving. As it is there, always ‘as an answer’. :) :)

Play of Emotions

5th SEPTEMBETER,
6.30in evening, the boy was sitting in a low mood and was missing someone close who just left for her corresponding place. Was feeling restless and wanted to somehow escape this all galloping feeling.

Decided to make a cup of coffee for him to relax and feel at peace, but the turmoil inside was rigid enough to be encroached easily.

Third cup of coffee and it started raining by that time; cold breeze brought little tranquillity to a highly apprehensive mind. Small droplets of slightly cold rain water on his hand gave celestial pleasure.

Turbulent mind slowly forgot all the pain it was carrying and got hit by a wave of elation. He was delighted to see birds chirping around, soothed by the voice of water touching ground, excited to see happy faces looking for shelter, felt at peace by the aroma of sand wet by the rain water.

The world was a happy place again, happy place for the kids playing in the ground, happy place for the always complaining old lady in the next veranda, happy place for the all exhausted & tired labour working in vicinity, happy place for the mother, for the children, for the father, for all around who were part of the scenery.

And there, sitting quite on the chair with coffee in hand and happiness around. He realised ‘the play of emotions’.

Realised that only few moments back he was in control of negative and distuning emotions and felt de-motivated to do anything, but with a small change in surrounding, merry moments took him over on a joyful ride and filled him with energy to do all his heart says.

Realised that change in surrounding was only a support or an excuse his soul used to get back to its default state. The default state with which god creates all souls, the state of bliss and happiness :)

There and then he made a promise to himself that never in life he will let short term negative emotions to stop his soul to live the way it is meant to by the almighty.

There is one common thread which follows through all the creations of god, be it humans, animals, birds, nature any anything, i.e. “the thread of love & happiness”.

If we want to accomplish the purpose of our existence and ‘live’ our life......THEN RATHER THAN BREAKING, LETS STREGTHEN THIS THREAD BY TAKING THE SAME PLEDGE, AS THE BOY TOOK :)
