After Covid-19


Stillness all around

Brings me to stillness,


And the moment expands.....


 Body confined in a room

Soul expands and growsBigger... and bigger.....Including whole world 




Soul sees new world order emerging. 



Boundaries fading

armies waning

Richness getting new meaning,

Silence is loved

Felt and cherished is Godliness, and not elusive God .

Divisive religions disappear. 


One world without boundaries and armies,

Religions and nations,

Plenty produced and flowing throughout

In streams of love.

Bliss



A painting with a verse. 
(Watercolor on white drawing paper 15”x11”)


Often there is an illusion that I am giving.

Meditation brings me back on the right track!
And peace  again!

Search!


Search me
You will see many wounds

Some healed, some healing and
New appearing!
Yet I stretch beyond my limits
For it creates more space
New terrain,
And gives me moments
That helps me discover new me

Wounds heal with time
Space created remain within for ever
---

Come Soon....a call


Space where
I am not sleeping
Yet not awake, though aware
In the wonderland
With wings on
Gliding slowly
Far above grounds of reality
Far bellow hollows of dreams
Waiting for you,
Here is where I will be found

Space where
No gravity applies
No pain exist
No efforts needed,
Here is where I will be found,
Waiting for you
Always

Come soon
My friend

Reflections



Overwhelmed by events,
Reacting
And
Whirl of cause and effects follow

....... Pause
To reflect

And deep within a voice
Heard

“Let go...
 Love is to surrender”

Easy comes
reflections in nature.

Living


Living

A candle
Spreads light
So others may see...

And when
Its time is over
It stops being

No demands
No expectations
No traces

Just passing through....
Some call it burning

I say it is living

Raas Lila


Silence creates the space
Separating mind from heart
And heart from soul

In deep silence
Soul often reveals
Secret of universe to heart
In a language unknown to mind
Heart can only pass it to
Another heart, also
In silence

Two hearts communicate
Play, dance
Celebrate.....

As long as in silence.

Bare Naked


Bare Naked

On a cool quiet of night
Alone
Rested facing sky wide open
I lie for a while

Calm and vastness
Combined
Play its magic…..
Soon I feel my breath
and
Hear my heartbeats

Slowly
Trivial frills drop
and
Truth revealed
Bare
Naked

Beautiful Emptiness



Felt like indulging in gossip
Just about to ring up a friend,
I halted….

A moment of awareness

Looked at
That emptiness, I was
Seeking to fill with useless gossip

Closer look revealed....
She is so beautiful,
this emptiness!

I looked at her closely
Dwelled in her for some time
And
She filled me!

There was no need to gossip!
No need to raid fridge!
No surfing TV aimlessly!

Enthusiasm for my new project took over!

Moving on


 Watching world same way
Life a repetitions
Moving in circle

Looking within cleaned
Mist on Eyes
Granting new vision

Now seeing better
I move on
Not stuck anywhere

Creativity


A Loving heart struggle
To bring out
Beauty felt within
In infinite
Different ways
In her
Elating work

It is her answer to the call

I call it creativity.

Echo


Echo

Love receive in
Only love






Your being is enough







Everything else is returned
Name, title, claims….
Even sound,
As it violates

Be it ego
Be it echo
It repeats
till its death

Dip in Depths

Dip in Depths


I have been a seeker
Since many years
Since many lives

It used to be Books
I will dig in
Then lectures of Masters  & Gurus
But all told me what was known

It brought no change

In silence,
In its depth
Revealed are new dimensions
Knowing
Got different meaning

Words fail me, but I can say
It comes to you in depth of silence
And you do not seek it
You just be there and receive it

Every time I take a dip in depths 
And be there,
It comes in many forms
Like deep water beings of different sizes, shapes and colors
Touch me, feel me,
Some enter in to me, to remain in me
And become part of me.

With every dip
I am different

Elements Lost


Beautiful fishes
Long and swift
Playing around sea plants
In deep within
So beautiful, mesmerizing

Sometimes Golden
Sometimes pink, blue…..
…..Different moods

Wanting to show them to you,
I try to shape them in words
Add sketch or photos
But at best is a very poor mock up

I still persist

Trying to bring those deep water beings
Into dry air
And present to you  
But
Dead fishes

Elements lost

Please see my limitations
And forgive me

connection


Connection

Thanks to smiles
To my small gestures,
Thirsty soul feels quenched
Loved and esteemed.
Small relief seen on faces
Connects me in that moment to
Infinite source of bliss

Indebted I am to
Those smiles.

River of Life & Harmony


River of life

Sitting on the bank
Looking at the flow
Just seeing…..
Whirls, weaves, pace, swell, drop, current…..

Just seeing…..
Is
so cooling
So gratifying….

Isn’t thinking to change it foolish? and
Efforts painful and futile?
Yet indulging often in that foolishness!
                       
-

Harmony

Loving is flowing with flow
Surrendering needs no efforts
Going against brings pain.

One Single impression: Silence


One Single impression:   Silence

On a garden bench
After morning walk,
Relaxed
I see…..

A quill floating in the air
Drifting slowly up
and down

A butterfly with green and red spots
Passes over my head
Then goes on to flower near,
A call of cuckoo
Soon answered by his mate,
Two friends on a bench next
Sharing a joke…laughing loudly

Cool morning air
Passing through my nostrils
Touching deep into my stomach
……….Making me
Lighter
Lighter…..

Floating with quill
Slowly up
And down……..
Flowing …….with flow

Silence and wants



 Silence   and   wants


After rapid spirited climb
To the peak
…….Warm breathe cooling and slowing,
Still feeling pleasing pain 
of pulled hair

Head resting over her heart…..
Hear pounding of her heart beats
Dhak…..dhak ….dhak

Her hand moving in my head
Playing with hair,
Her heart beats loud and clear
Dhak……………….dhak ……………….dhak
Pause between two beats
more spacious.

In that space
I vanish.
Remain
Just..... silence

…….No wants
Just silence
For a few moments.

(Silence visits in many ways. Are we there to receive?)
