Breathing is not being alive!

We are not dead when we stop breathing. We are dead when we stop living!

I see so many people around me having a bright smile but eyes full of sorrow. I feel so sad for them. I can totally empathise with the. For, there are days when I too am one of them. Being honest!

But, just like the moon waxes and wanes, just like the seasons change, just like high tide and low tide, we too must change. We must know in our hearts that good times are coming and cheer ourselves. 

But, how do we stay happy for longer times? How do we make happiness our true nature? How do we find inner strength to overcome outer adversities without losing peace of mind?

There are tons of literature available that helps us attain peace and tranquility but it needs our conviction and courage. The courage to not follow the majority. The courage to be different. The courage to stand alone. The courage to ask for God's help and forgiveness and guidance. The courage to face our fears.

I'm sure as Buddha said we all can become Bodhosatvas provided we are ready to make some changes in our lives and stay in control of our happiness.

May God help us all, find our IKIGAI and Nirvana. 🙏

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!

Oblivious to oblivion

We humans are getting more and more engrossed in things that don't matter and replacing it with things that do matter. We keep track of every new I phone model but we have lost track of the losing greenbelt and nature. We are killing everything that is keeping us alive. But we are happy to live now selling our tomorrow's.  It's a sad state of affairs. We are looking externally for things which are within us. And things which are external and unnecessary we are taking it internally - like peer pressure and loud lifestyles. Where is the sense? Where is the moral compass that controls our actions? Wake up humanity...before we are erased from this planet. We need the planet the planet doesn't need us. Let's not forget that, ever.

2020: adios amigo!

The year 2020 was cruel to most of us, but it taught us many positive lessons. It made us appreciate and be grateful for all that we have, and realise what we really need in life to be happy. It was a lesson needed for the world to reboot and rethink of its priorities. It reminded us that we have been making the mistake of using people and loving things when it needs to be the other way round. It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...
