Chain of questions

I met a tree yesterday
It had a gloom, I saw
A gloom to keep within
A gloom to imagine
A gloom to paint an imaginary life
With thousands of colors
A gloom to paint a creative world,
Something dreamy beyond dreams,
Something very connecting between
Illusion and reality...
And we should be knocking at the door of both, there lies a big bridge;
Huge bridge between the world of illusion and reality.

Jimmy, my landlord's dog barks,
And there are striking hits of the watch
Taking you to the different world,
In the different world which is really unknown.

There is a long chain of questions
All the way around
But never ever I found
Even a single answer.

This universe,
Something above this universe
Of which we don't have any idea
There is always an endless chain of questions.
And oh, no response at all
Not a single answer of them.

There is not a big difference
Between creator and creation I feel
Creation itself is a creator! Yeah
As we don't doubt any creation
But we doubt the creator whom we call God
If we believe that something behind any creation, there is a creator;
Then we must believe
That behind God there is a creator
Who has completed God
But this idea!!

See this nature itself is a creator and a creation for sure,
There is no one beyond it
If there is a feeling
Then this feeling is created by itself
There is no one beyond it
That's how the chain goes on...
This chain creates infinity
There is nothing beyond infinity
And I don't want to go
To deep into infinity
Because even a single thing
Has different layers of infinity
That always leave a question beyond the infinite things
Beyond the creator
There is something beyond the God
But there is nothing beyond the God.

Himalayan Symphony

"Himalayan Symphony: Songs and Poems of Narendra Singh Negi" is a book consisting of the English translation of the major songster and poet of Uttarakhand Himalayas Sri Narendra Singh Negi.  His expression has been inclusive of all the vivid colours of hill life. This book is a series of an earlier book "A Stream of Himalayan Melody: Selected songs of Narendra Singh Negi" which has been readily accepted by readers nationwide. This series envelops his poems and songs of great artistic value.  Foreword If ever one were to draw a map of popularity of individuals in the central Himalayas Shree Narendra Singh Negi would occupy the highest standing bar. It will be a gross mistake if one evaluated Negi just for the poignant songs he has written, sung and composed. He stands atop and beyond them all – A towering Adam-sized human being. 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 भले ही तुम्हारा वहाँ होना सार्थक नहीं जान पड़ता क्यों चल रहे हो इतने मुखौटों को लेकर कि खुद की भी कोई खबर नहीं है, सड़कों पर रेंगकर मर जाने वाली जिन्दगियाँ उन तक कोई कराह नहीं पहुंचा पाती जहाँ पहुँचना लोकतंत्र में तय होना चाहिए 19 मई 2020

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
