Shed a tear and rinse our sins!

Let's shed a tear for all those trees we massacared to furnish our homes

Let's shed a tear for all those animals we slaughtered in the name of sports

Let's shed a tear for all the rivers we polluted
In the name of prosperity

Let's shed a tear for all the mountains we mercilessly chopped in the name of growth

Let's shed a tear for all the pollutants we dumped in the seas and suffocated the life there

Let's shed a tear for all the birds we made homeless to build homes for us

Let's shed a tear for all the bees who lost their way, for us to check social media nonstop on our phones

Let's shed a tear for all the forests that we burnt with the fire of our greed

May be then, when all of humanity cries together for the sins we committed for generations, may quench the fire we ignited in the breast of mother nature. 

Then may be she will cry for us too, like a mother who sees the repentence in the eyes of her devastated children.

May be then, we will earn her forgiveness and she will help us rebuild our lives and rediscover our connection with the larger universe.

And when we find that connection again, we have the chance to be truly free!

May be again we will cry tears of joy together and sing the songs of happiness with all the creations of mother earth.

Come my friend cry a river and wash our sins
That's our only route to redemption!

Humanity is lost!

We lost ourselves when our quest was overtaken by greed. First, we wanted to learn - the earth, the oceans, the skies and then we wanted to own them. We invented toys of mass pleasure and mass pain. We got religion and creed. And we got lost in all these. We stopped being the wanderers who wanted to cherish nature. Enjoy it's gifts.  We started challenging the almighty the creator. We lost. We are dying as a race. Dying with the burden of civilization that offers only stress and agony of loans. Sitting in one position we are destroying our body the greatest gift of nature. We don't deserve to be called the smartest of all species. We are the most idiotic of all. We are dumb. AI is taking over. We will be lost in machines soon. They are our future. We cease to be us soon. God bless us!

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!

Love is all around me!

I remember this peppy song from my childhood with these lyrics love is all around me, everywhere I go...I have forgotten the singer, the lyrics and everything about this song. But these few lines have stayed with me all these years.  Truly, if we look around, there is so much to love and be grateful for....from the view of the rising sun from my balcony, to the books I read, to the food I eat and the energy I feel within. It's beautiful. The whole universe is within us and there is so much to be happy about....only if we truly open our eyes and see. Life is so tiny. Today we are alive but tomorrow we may not be. So why not inhale all the beauty around so that when we close our eyes in the night, we feel the divine bliss within and cherish it, without a regret in the world. It's a beautiful life, I feel pity for thr people who waste it hating ! May God bless their souls and may they too learn to see the beauty all around, so that this earth can truly become a beautiful place to ...
