Human Mind!! No Good!!

Why do we get stuck with 'its too late' thought emotion? Do we relate it to age or the mind gives too much negative strenght to the thought that we tend to put a full stop simply because we refuse to think more on it to give a try? Ain't it like sweeping under a carpet,trying hard to forget? Why can't we defy our mind and prove it we're the one who are in control of our own thoughts and not vice versa?! Human mind!! Damn!! No good!! 

What Is Love?

Let's admit: We all want love in our life. We want to be loved. But it makes us realise along with love in our mind, comes in our own set of fears, insecurities, expectations and with these negative emotions revolving around us, we mess it up, fail to understand, to enjoy the simple form of love.....

Let's admit: We keep hearing about unconditional love. Do we know what it means? It simply means loving without any expectations, full stop!! But have we ever given love a chance, to understand the term 'unconditional'? Why don't we allow the ego mind to rest, so we give ourselves completely into? Yes, we can, 'only' if we start taking tiny steps to love our self in a unconditional way, firstly and foremost everything begins within us - our inner self......If we agree!!

So the question here still remains! What is love?! Wouldn't it be good to feel and express the emotion without any barriers? Of course, it can, because love is purely universal and no one owns it!!

Celebration In Itself!

Celebrating doesn't necessarily mean enjoying a particular day or event in our life! If we want, each day can be a celebration.... But the moment we wake up, the thought of tomorrow rises in our mind hurrying away not even kowing what today can be.... Let us learn to go easy on ourselves...Let us be in the now...Let us understand each day what it mean...Let us give our face a chance to relax and ease off the tension lines..... Let us celebrate each second, minute and hour, till we call it a day...Don't not let time rule our day...Let us learn what it means to live and let live, that should be our motto every single day! Cheers to our lives!!

Meherabad - A Peaceful Heavenly Abode Of Meher Baba!

Who is Meher baba? Yes! That is the exact questionable expression one will hear when the name is said. Well...the same question mark was hanging over my head and absolutely had zero knowledge about Baba. My answer to the question is, in all my living years I didn’t hear the name until few weeks ago, when I started reading the books written by Mrs. Nan Umrigar , which were suggested by my friend Ms. Mitali Banerjee. Reading the books, I got to know Him and after knowing Baba I just couldn’t wait to visit His abode, later soon after when I got the opportunity to visit Meherabad, I grabbed with my both hands without even giving it much thought to it. I would say it was truly a privilege for me because the day of my visit coincided on the day of Dhuni. What more can I ask for from Meher Baba. I can confidently say that after my visit Meher Baba and I’ve become friends now in our own way. But even before I and Meher Baba could shake hand as friends, there is bit of a story to it, a story where my friend Mitali was also involved in it too, should say it was very well synchronized where Baba had a big role to play in it. We both have come to realize how funny Baba can be in His own best way! :)

I got to know about Meher Baba and how his amazing spiritual journey began in the books and of course later through my research on the internet, I wanted to know more about Baba in whatever possible way I could lay my hands on to dig for more information. The more I read, the more I wanted to visit Meherabad, and knowing it was proximity close to the city I lived in, the distance was some few hundred kilo meters, So I just couldn't wait for the day to come for the eager visit to the place. Through Mrs. Umrigar, I soon connected the other Baba lovers and planned my visit.  It was a memorable road trip where I heard lots of Baba’s wondrous ways as how Baba touches everyone who come to His abode......All they take back home is the eternal blessing from His heaven.

Meherabad - A little abode which Meher Baba created with His own hands, a place which solely belongs to Him, and a place where nature welcomes you and the wind with its warmth gently caresses your face. Meher Baba has spread His aura around every inch, every nook and corner of the place, you feel it instantly and know it well His presence is very much intact in His abode, a perfect place chosen by  Baba to have His tomb and also of His dedicated followers who immensely served and loved Baba till their end . Meherabad is a place which is truly respected and taken care off in minutest detail, a place no one can take it for granted but bow down to it with gratitude in one's heart and soul. A place so simple with no fancy and frills to it, where one can just be there and enjoy the sound of silence in the purest version of it, living in the highly modern world with deafening sound around us, this silence is like a blessing, a soulful music to the ears, it uplifts the soul, the purity of the place fills up within, face lifts up and lips break into a smile. And seeing all the smiling faces around within an instant you know they feel the same too, that Meher Baba is very much around us. This little abode is a magnetic place; it pulls you to its roots to make you feel one with it. This is a place where going once is just not enough!!! All I will say is to this is - Welcome to a little heavenly place called 'Meherabad'!

JAI BABA!

Discovering Your True Self....!

We have heard the saying 'Discovering your true self' is life's biggest adventure ever! Yes! Agree, there is no denial here! It is indeed an adventure! Would say, an adventure filled with unsolved mysteries, if some are solved sooner, then good, if not keep solving them, sometimes mysteries in life has no endings. Throughout our life journey we try and try to open each lock holding the destiny's key in our hands. Yes again! Frustration sets in...Peace of mind goes for a toss...Anxiety slowly starts creeping in us, finding its strength hold in every cell of our body. One day, realization dawns on us, we feel our every emotion have started pouring all over the place, it’s going out of control, suddenly there is a loud voice inside our mind, and we hear a scream that says enough!! The mind has woken up....We pause!!!!

Thinking....Contemplating....And eagerly waiting for an answer in other words a solution to everything our mind is seeking for. The mind begins to juggle with its own questions and answers, is it worth putting in every emotion into solving the mysteries life throws at us or take a back seat, relax a little, see our choices and go with the flow.... A flow like the river does, flowing and moulding itself, facing bravely each curve or rock that it has to pass through. Why, don't we be like the river, gravely facing each curve and rock, and yet keep flowing even if we reach into the ocean struggling to keep our head held high as not to submerge into the deepness of it, hoping and knowing that our destiny has already kept the key where it belongs and waiting for us to reach to grab it....Once we hold the key in our hands, and with a smile we turn around looking our shoulder to take a backward glance and see how far we have come here.......Facing all the hitches and glitches we stumbled upon in our entire life makes the  adventure worthwhile proudly knowing that along the way we also have discovered our true selves and true self is what makes us!! Do we agree?

  

The Choice Is Always Ours....!

The connection between the mind and mouth is amazing, what is thought by the mind, the mouth does the talking, so sometimes it's fine to let both of them to rest for a day...If given a chance to do, we instantly will notice how the mind starts putting itself into action right away, oozing out the negativeness that is accumulated inside us...sure it will definitely feel like a bursting of volcano with black lava pouring down from all sides, but instead of running away from the lava, we need to realize why we turn ourselves into a volcano, and keep suppressing everything till it’s time to erupt?! Why are we being hard on ourselves? Or maybe we have our own perception as how life is meant to be lived! Or live it like a volcano, erupting till the end! Or sing, love, meditate or just laugh it out, the choice is always ours! Amen!
