“When we say we are going to do something, we should at least try our level best to do it!” Just a suggestion.
No earthly pleasures are essential for life. Only the love of life and nature can sustain us if we chose to live so.We can choose to come out of our cages and show our own true self. The one that is trapped within.
Do you remember those times when you sometimes go mad and behave erratically? Might that be because your inner self is somewhere inside there finding those weak links , when it chooses to come out and reveal itself. Not every place, and not in front of anyone, but when we are most at ease, and with those we trust above all…
“Kabhi kabhi dikhta hain humaara woh roop." -The hidden self. The true self. The child within - the One, that is yet to mature. The playful Krishna within us.
When we see someones "that hidden self", we think they have gone mad. We are sometimes amazed, sometimes annoyed, but people true to their hearts love it when they see those shackles broken.
Why would we want to see them like that? Nah, not because we want to share a laugh, but because, until we see them truly, how can we know the real person?
The carefree self. The one that shares no burden. The one that could have existed. Maybe, if those burdens and responsibilities in life were to be removed , we would be a completely different species. Enslaved within the cages of our own creation, how can we escape! Wrapped up in seeking earthly pleasures, which we might very well do without.
But can we do without them? Some have. They have either been known as great men or no one ever heard of them! And they didn't care about that.
I have seen those people who come during Kumbh Mela. So many, who seek that route-an escape!
Family. Expectations. Responsibilities. They have left these behind.
But then turning away from those is in itself a sin, right?
Even if we detach ourselves from our own at one space, we end up making even more relations in the next!
So, do we just carry on as we are and stay happy? Maybe.
HE has made such a maze that you can never come out of it. Seekers are many, finders are few. None, almost.
Each one finds his own trail. In work and family, in hobbies and money, in smoke and alcohol, in food and luxury… To each his own!
As we all know, many things can be as intoxicative as alcohol. A man can get drunk in his passion, in something that he loves without even a sip of wine.
The musicians fly in the flow of their own music.
The artists live in their world of creativity and imagination.
The dreamers dream. And the foreseers envision a world that none can contemplate.
And, architects live in their own castle of dreams!
Or igloos! (if in Antarctica)
And a mom lives in the world of her kids. As does a person thrive in the heart of his love.
So many things to contemplate and yet, as we read this, we are in a rush to do the next job! The world is such!
Just live it…..
