Darkness

Far far from engines
This pleasing melody
The melody of brooding mountains
They have embraced the darkness;
Does it panic you?
No mate,
It's tranquilizing far away from crowd.

The shattered you
Look for this lovely darkness
It soothes;
Crowd has a darkness
The crowd preparing
Conspiracy for you.

People carry darkness within
The people with fake faces
You look for solitude
It's a darkness then
A pleasant darkness.

The whisper of this dusk breeze
You close your eyes
And I feel the placid warmth within.

I stay with this
This darkness mate
Keeps me close to mine
The illuminating darkness
With a bright face of light.

His universal popularity and presence is bewildering. He is everywhere:  In Uttarakhand agitation, taking out “prabhat pheris” i...

कराह

तुम्हारी उम्रों के पैर थके हुए नजर आते हैं कि वो चल रही हैं सफर अपना, और बहुत लाज़मी भी है बातों का उसी तरह घटित होना जैसा कि उनको होना है तुम्हारे वहाँ होने से जहाँ कि तुम हो भल...

Bow, arrow and target!

Bow, arrow and target! Laden with the flowers of countless heavens And bloomed petals of thousand lotuses The ‘bow’ is OM Expressed into countless names and forms The individual Self, the ‘arrow’ is And, the Inexpressible, Inconceivable, Imperishable Brahman, the ‘target’ is In the silence of witnessing and watchfulness The ‘arrow’ should be pierced gently And tenderly grounded With the target hit, ‘arrow’ becomes the ‘target’ And gained is Oneness (Poem from my personal diary kept in between  the tranquil showers of Maandukya Upanishad and Guru Granth Sahib) Dr Deepak Bijalwan  Image from - https://randomrantingsofacreativemind.wordpress.com
