Oh! It is twilight!

 


I am, the absolute awareness,

sitting still, with no movement,

deep in silence, one with the self,

light is seen within thyself


Slowly, I come in contact, 

with the so called mind,

Me and mine knocks at the door,

Oh! it is morning!


Sunlight enters the living room,

I smell coffee from the backroom,

On the canvas of space and time,

the show called 'world' begins with a chime.


One experiences the 'waking state'!

Circumstances happen called fate!

Events unfold in time to chase

Separating individuals in space


Five sense organs continue to work

Four functions of mind operate

Five elements of universe is enjoyed

Everything happens in the absolute awareness


Golden Sun slowly turns red,

Roaring waves wishes goodbye,

Half moon appears on the sky!

Oh! it is twilight!


Mind gets ready to sleep

World resolves within deep

Sun appears to go down

Absolute awareness shines on its own

A Tale of Two birds

  A   Tale of two birds Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree there sat a bird, With a  coo coo  here, and a  coo coo  there, Here a  coo , there a  coo , Everywhere  coo coo ! This bird eats the berries, Some are bitter, some are sweet. Fluttering here, fluttering there, Restless in its endless search. Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree there sat a jīva, With a  glub glub  here,  and a  glub glub  there , Here a  glub,  there a  glub   , Everywhere  glub glub   ! The jīva whines in sorrow, The jīva whines in fear. Forgetting its true nature,  It suffers birth after birth. Old Īśvara had a farm, And on this farm He had a tree, And on this tree the jīva met the Guru, And the jīva turned into a bhakta. She asks, “Give me this, give me that,” She prays in sorrow and distress. She makes her bargains and deals Slowly c...

Life is a Yajña

  Life is a Yajña I simply sit and close the eyes I download the mind, I download all its contents, I disregard the past memory, I set aside the worries of future, I look at my life...  I witness the life ... I rise above all selfish demands  I transcend all trivial concerns I allow life to become a yajña. .. I offer this life, as an oblation I offer the personal self,  Me and Mine as an oblation in the fire of wisdom  Vak- The organ of speech I visualize it as Rig Veda I offer all the words that come out I offer speech as an oblation ... I speak the truth when needed to speak I speak only in sweet tones I avoid hurting at all cost Now, the speech is Rig Veda I offer it as an oblation to Īśvara, the whole The Family, Community, Society,  Humanity at large, All life forms in the creation, I offer it as an oblation! Prāṇā -The Vital Force  Breath, Energy, Vigor Pervading the entire body I visualize Prāṇā  as Sama Veda I offer the energy as an oblati...

Tiger’s Nest Monastery Hike — An Adventurous Awakening Journey Within

Tiger’s Nest Monastery Hike — An Adventurous Awakening Journey Within Paro Taktsang , famously known as the Tiger’s Nest Monastery , is one of Bhutan’s most sacred and breathtaking places — perched on a cliffside at an altitude of around 3,100 meters (10,200 feet) in Paro, Bhutan.  It’s not just a hike; it’s a pilgrimage.  We began our hike from the base around 7 AM. Wooden walking sticks rented from locals in hand, Strava app turned on, and spirits eager, we followed our guide, Kinzan, who kindly guided us along. We took a “before hike” photo — smiling, unaware of the lessons waiting ahead. The winding path stretched ahead, shaded by tall trees, strings of prayer flags, with hundreds of steps ascending through the forest.  Around us, travelers from all over the world climbing along—each group led by its own local guide. Step by step, one foot before the other, the hike began.  With every upward step, doubts crept in —  Will I make it?   The walking stick ...
