The sacred island!

There is a part in all of us. I don't know where we keep it. Hide it from the world. But it is there. Always coming to our rescue when we are sad, depressed, hopeless, it comes to give us hope, love, care. It is the sacred island within us. 

We are born on it, the sacred island. Well most of us. We have happy childhoods where we are the centre of attraction we are the nucleus and the whole world revolving around us. Then the island opens to the world. For the first time we realise that there is water all around it. Water that can drown it, soil it, dampen it. Slowly, as we grow, we tend to store all our loving memories, feelings, emotions and treasures on this island and guard it fiercely. We are lost in the ocean around the island fighting the pirates and the sharks. We get busy forging alliances of like minded warriors who can help us stay alive and protect that island of ours. All our life we want to live on that sacred island, waiting for the right time. When we are ready and the island is guarded with an impenetrable fortress. But it never happens. Or atleast it never happens on time. It's always late. We die wishing to live in this paradise - the sacred island of ours.

Let's do it now! Let's just drop everything and row our canoes towards this island with all our might. Let's hide the boats when we get there cos we are not going to need it ever. The island has it all. Its walls are protected and nourished by our most sacred feelings and thoughts.
Once we are there we won't worry about the fears that nag us for we will be too happy to worry about them.

It's time to head there. For too long we have lived thinking that island is beyond us where it was always within us. Just that we never looked there but looked all over the universe forgetting that the universe within is as vast and complicated as the outer world.

Ready? Let's go!

The power of travel

We don't meet people like Columbus anymore. Someone who risked everything to travel and find Newlands. Virgin territories for humanity. Today we are so obsessed with our gadgets, that we are moving away from the real world. We are not travelling enough. We are not aware of our surroundings.  We are not one with nature anymore. I'm worried. Are you?

Plastic world!

We stopped being nomads ten thousand years back... And like stagnant water, our decay started. We formed boundaries that never existed before But we became the prisoners within them We let greed take over and we started finding joy outside us God was within us but we looked outside We became obsessed with winning We started killing for fun We chose to be cruel when we should have chosen to be kind We chose to kill when we should have chosen to collaborate We became a society full of plastic A society that glorified materialism A society that was dying from within A plastic world Will we ever come out of this plastic world? No one knows for sure Let's enjoy the nature what's still left Before we might start paying for the air we breathe We are dying as a race We are killing our own selves by eating junk and filling out minds with junk It's got to stop now We must turn back to nature and become free We must return to innocence For happiness and liberty

Warring for peace?

May seem like an oxymoron but that's exactly what we smart human race is doing. We need to look within ourselves to find light. We are all sinking the planet to depression with our fears, negativity, stress and greed. We were so much happier with little. We lived in the moment. Now we live in insta reels. We are going in the wrong direction as a race in the speed of light with no return  Only God can help us. We are so keen to destroy ourselves. May there be sanity to end suffering and may there be peace and happiness for all humans. Help us God. Bless us with your grace. We need you more than ever. Only you can save us God
