I am a ray of sun

-

I am a ray of sun;
Illuminating in the dark inside.

I am a splash of colors;
Painting on the canvas blank;

I am a smir of rain;
Satisfying the thirst of my soul.

I am a spring of nature;
Blossom in the autumn inner.

I am a drop of water;
Playing in the ocean of infinity;

Being an instrument divine;
Is a noble, ever renewing, blessing.

~ Siddharth Mistry

Out in the fields with God

Hurry, worry and curry! Isn’t it describing our lives? We run behind the success and invite worries. We haste in achieving worldly possessions. And in celerity, we miss enjoying life. Life is beautiful, when we enjoy it fully.      Here is a wonderful poem about living a life with joy. The poet wonders in nature and loses petty cares. Among the play of winds and rustling of trees, among the singing of birds and humming of bees, he forgets niggling of life. Nature is the divine creation of God. As it hasn’t ego, when wonder in it, ruffles of life turns into smooth.  Sometimes we feel down due to foolish fears of what may happen. We may feel blue due to imaginary menace. The poet cast it away in husking of the corn and nodding of drowsy poppies.  He finds the presence of God in nature. Where ill thoughts die and good thoughts are born. Understanding of nearness of God makes us happy in all situations. In pain and pine, when we feel that God is with me and within me, it

पूर्वजन्मकॄतं कर्म तद् दैवमिति कथ्यते | तस्मात् पुरूषकारेण यत्नं कुर्यादतन्द्रित: || पूर्व जन्म मे किया हुवा अच्छा या बुरा कर्म जब फल देता है, इस जन्म मैं उसे दैव कहते है। इसलिए इन्सान को चाहिए इस जन्म में समय ना गवाते हुए अच्छे कर्म करे।   We may afraid of destiny. We may feel that what is prescribed in destiny is going to happen. We read the daily horoscope. We pay high to astrologers. We wear stones and rings and what not! We feel secure in that.  We feel that we are the puppets of someone else’s hand. He makes us dance according to his will. We feel helpless against that. We threaten and bow down to cruel bludgeonings of chance. According to me, this is all due to a lack of prudent knowledge. Vedic concepts are indifferent to what we used to believe. Human life and the world are being driven by the laws of the universe. The law of evolution, the law of karma, the law of attraction and repulsion, etc. And they sound well that I am the master of my fate and captain of my soul. B

Life

Life is a game, play it. Life is a puzzle, solve it. Life is a mystery, unfold it. How wise words these are! All the days are not the same. They vary. Up and down, to and fro are but natural. It’s like a roller coaster ride. It threatens sometimes. We may lose head and heart due to the variance.   In such an imbalance, how do we balance is the major point. In the midst of the conflict, in the midst of hardship, in the midst of the storm, how do we think and live, that carries the major attention. In the struggle, we may get disturbed. Negativity and distortion may drag us down. But the truth is: it’s a process, the process of development. No struggle can bring us down, but our own mind can. So it’s an opportunity to build a positive mind. So in the scuffle, instead of getting down, awake and arise. Build the mind with positive thoughts and emotions. Draw a meaning in difficult times and surely it will bring us up. Here is a heartening divine poem by Shri Aurobindo
