The blindmen and elephant - story of our lives!

I am sure all of us remember the story of blind men and the elephant. How each blind man comes in contact with a part of the elephant and starts thinking the elephant is like a tree, or a snake or a fan etc.

I sometimes feel that our life is like that. At every stage in life, we are coming in contact with an aspect of life and we start thinking that this is life. As we grow older and when we have played the roles of all the blind men, we tend to put it all together and start figuring life as a whole. We get the whole picture then.

So till we are there, where we are ready to see life in full from every perspective, let's continue to play our role of the blind men and let's have the faith that life itself will reveal to us and we will experience life in full.

We will understand the whys and the why nots. We will get answers to all our questions and may be stop questioning the answers we have.

We will be truly and fully alive, living life on all engines gunning in full blast.

Till then, let's enjoy the journey. If the journey is beautiful, the destination will be even more stunning!

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
