Beautiful Bright Beginnings

Beautiful Bright Beginnings

 The only beautiful bond worth staying linked joyously here and hereafter is with our Lord SriKrishna and all the staunch devotees of our Lord SriGovinda.  Then life well lived.

 

FAREWELL TO FAMILY & FRIENDS WHO HAVE DRIFTED AWAY . FANTASTIC! FINE! PLEASE STAY BLESSED. PRAYERS.

PLEASE LET’S LET GO OF THOSE WHO HAVE OUTGROWN US FOR  THEY HAVE MOVED ON . SO SHOULD WE.  WIN WIN.

At the outset, as always, I confess, that I am not a subject matter expert of all I write, but at the same time, all those topics that makes me happy, introspective and where I did learn a lesson, I try to assemble them together. Please, do not feel constrained to agree for there is a different fit for everyone.


Whilst writing these words, am reminded of so many acquaintances, friends and family , who proclaimed to me , that this bond mattered the most to them, but have slowly and steadily moved away,  never to reach out or respond. Their words and actions can be deemed as being asymmetrical. 


Here, we keep on phoning, texting and writing longest messages to them , as though our world starts and ends with them. The needles of our time  has stood still for us,  but for them,  their time and space zone has blocked us.

Few strategies first hand, mentioned below that hold me in good stead are: Please seek an audience from all those , who once claimed  closeness,  but now who have drifted away, to just get to the root of the problem. Try putting pieces together if any. If nothing works ,silently sign off. Due caution has to exercised not to take the matter to public display then it hits us as a double whammy. We could either become a topic of ridicule or appear to be a victim. Without a whimper , please let us clear our slate. No debit and no credit. Everything nullified.
This is an act which will clear us of a nagging doubt     ” Have I hurt them unknowingly?  The response if any , would necessitate us to say a sorry , thanks and excuse me or  no thanks , no sorry or no excuse me.
Of course, no begging, just an exploration of the truth of the break up and a patch up if possible . Here the relation could be  sour siblings, friend turned foe, parting parents etc. The relation in itself is not of a great consequence .  A broken bond has to be repaired , if at all…. 

In the first instance only ,  If they do not  take that trouble of connecting,  maybe try,  for just one more time and then the case gets closed and sealed permanently from our side. No more trip down memory lane and handshake . 
Let’s be magnanimous not to  pester and make our presence felt where not required.   With zero guilt glide away ,  in greatest glory.
Please do not forget to pray for them for we did enjoy fine moment’s in the past with them.  To let go totally, should be a gentle, good and gracious act with no contempt or malice.  They have moved on, not their fault.  

We are holding closest the strings of affections which we need to disentangle ourselves from.  The act of letting off, gives us a feel best factor.  What is tied through force snaps,  what is linked with hope , love, togetherness and mutual admiration and awe builds a beautiful bridge of bliss and bright beginnings.  Rest only wilt and wither.

Why waste our worthful time and energy just like that?
So many associations,  which then held great promise , after the above act of lossening the tie,  made me forget that these people actually existed. After completely obilterating them out of my radar, I unleashed a new spring of freedom and a great thought what a great relief!. Few did reach out after many years for their convenience and gain, but by then, the mirror of faith had broken to pieces.  Not again the drama!
This time we have moved on and out.  Reverse engineering in full gear.  


To my mind, we need to live with  a high self esteem but no false prejudice and to grapple lovingly the truest relations that matter to us.

To walk that extra mile alone for a fine person and to mend a bruised heart is worth the countless efforts but to snoop , scruntize and survey on an undeserved, becomes like a coil/noose on the other’s neck as also ours. Dignified exit for us, would be like a sunshine all the way laced with peace and tranquility.

Let’s not sniff the oxygen off someone else but surely keep a hopeful eye to find few other like minded  friends who can once again be a part of our journey and brighten our life. This is certain to happen. Why not? If say, even a few hundred moved away, we still have the wide Universe all waiting with open arms to embrace us. As a friend, a sibling, a guide or a parent.
The show moves on fabulously.   No guilt trip, no failure feelings and definitely no self pity.

Here’s cheers to Hope, Happiness and Health and above all to CHANGE . YES CHANGE, CHANGES EVERYTHING.  JUST ABOUT ALL . HANDS DOWN WE ARE THE ULTIMATE WINNERS THAT TOO ORGANICALLY ACHIEVED

Needless to say all this in the mortal world with our most beloved Lord SriKrishna merrily dancing with us. Jai Sriman SriNarayanaya namaha. JAI SRIKRISHNA JAI SRIKRISHNA.

PAIN and EMPATHY.

PAIN and EMPATHY

Pain and Empathy,

Are like twins joined at birth.

Those who suffer silently,

Reach , run and rescue.

For they have been and seen,

Their hearts glow with love,

For the lone and the lost.

In them, their own images embossed.

No matter how trifle it may seem,

Other’s problems, pains and pinch,

They console , care and counsel,

Yes ! It’s a great benediction.

To suffer, search and then sing,

To the tunes of bliss.

The spotless soul sparkles,

Empathy gently engulfs pain.

Shines like an emerald.

It’s eternal edifice is built on,

Pains, compassion , love and prayers.

Let’s embrace pain and empathy.

It builds bridges and connects,

Hearts and Minds of All.

TRULY CONNECTS THE ENTIRE

UNIVERSE IN ONENESS.

PRAISE BE OUR LORD.

Anger , Anguish and Abusive words. 

ARE THEY JUSTIFIED?

 

9025859086?profile=RESIZE_710x

Each one of us , would always like to be politically correct, prim and proper. Ever eager to hide ourselves in the garb of gentleness and goodness for others to appreciate and applaud.

What one fine day or at few opportune moments, we let go of our guard and for the rightest cause, hurl abusive words and let loose the torrential gates of anger and anguish ? That too in front of an audience.

SHOULD WE FEEL GUILTY OUR IMAGE HAS TAKEN A BEATING? OR DESPISE OURSELVES FOR BEING HUMAN?

SHOULD WE ALWAYS CONDITION OURSELVES TO WITHDRAW &WRENCH FROM OUTPOURINGS GOOD OR BAD? Should we always be enslaved and be a captive forever in the trap of a good samaritan and a pristine image in front of the entire world?

To my mind , ideally it is best to control our emotions for our own well being.

To shield ourselves from the outside world and try to be reticent and not expose ourselves to every sundry. But if a situation, when pushed to the brink , leashes the supressed anger and pain , please do not mind at all “What will they think of us now? What about my impeccable mannerisms and my personal brand?

Please let go. The ones who know us will one hundred percent understand and empathize, the others will carry a tale. Who matters most for us is the deciding factor. The latter I care not. They never existed.

Rumour mongers, otherwise, too light the fire and spread smoke of confusion and chaos ,  without any specific reason. Please ignore them. Complete obliteration. 

To embrace ourselves truly, means to be in perfect synchronization of the good and the bad , the divine and the human, the anger and the serenity , the private and the public space within us.

Let’s not be too mindful of our mannerisms, they stifle and strangulate us . TO ERR IS HUMAN. PLEASE MOVE FEARLESSLY AND NOT PAY TOO MUCH  HEED TO THE WORLD AND IT’S WAYS. THEY HAVE NOT WALKED OUR JOURNEY. STATIONED AT AN IVORY TOWER THEY ARE UNAWARE OF OUR GRIND. AN ARMCHAIR ADVICE CAN ALWAYS BE OVERLOOKED.

PLEASE DO NOT JUSTIFY YOUR IMPLICIT OR EXPLICIT EMOTIONS. THEY ARE OURS TO STAY. NO EXPLANATIONS NEEDED.

SILENCE AND SOLITUDE

 

When our mind is totally still and calm, away from every clutter,  in the midst of chaos, cacophony and chatter,  then slowly we move towards a state of mental equilibrium and transcendence. 

None of us have the privilege of retiring from our responsibilities and duties.  We have to train our mind constantly,  that our Lord SriKrishna has, is and always will rescue each one of us under all circumstances.  We need to have an implicit faith in our Lord SriGovinda, then  all our fears, insecurities and stress will vanish.  

Let's chant lovingly SriHari SriHari SriHari SriHari.  Surely our worry will run away.

Jai Sriman Srinarayanaya Namaha.

Jai Sriman SriNarayanaya

( THE MOST SUPERLATIVE CHOICE, IS TO LOVE AND LAY OUR LIFE, AT THE MOST DIVINE  LOTUS FEET OF OUR LORD SRIKRISHNA .  SRIRAMKRISHNAHARI)

THE CHOICE

Should I traverse
the frequent road?
Or move towards
the path not taken?

Where does success lie?
In the seen or the unseen?
The heard or the unheard?

Do we lose?
In our exercise of choices?

NEVER EVER!
Please listen to your heart.
Break every bastion.

To be a crowd?
Or to be a face in the crowd!

To walk touched by all?
Or to leave two foot prints!
On the sands of time.

The Decision and
Choice is Ours.
The Results and Risks
Embrace and Endorse.

What resonates is
THE ATTITUDE
THE BOLDNESS
THE CONVICTION
YES I DARE.

For I have chosen,
wisely and not worldly.

To Live with Pride
And not Prejudice.

YES !MY CHOICE.
         MY LIFE !
         I ENGINEER IT!
         FANTASTICALLY!

In Conversation with Covid

Jai S8540938883?profile=RESIZE_710xSriman Srinarayanya Namaha

 

IN CONVERSATION WITH COVID.🙉🙊🙈
(In a very lighter vein ).

Covid ( C ) : Hi !🥳
Myself ( M ): Oh No!😩
( running , the speed of a cheetah in full action).🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

C : catches up ...deeply panting..Why are you running , My Dear ?👹
M : What ! Dear ! Say that again! You Madcap! I just don't want to know you ever. Who are you ?🤬

C : Ungrateful creature!.😋
M : What me ? 😳

C : Yes, you.
M : Pray explain from minimum, 20 feet distance , make sense in your nonsensical blabber.( very impatiently and 😡😡😡)

C : Have brought you a 20 pages handwritten glories about myself . Here keep it with you. It will do you good.😍

Work from home, work life balance, quality time, unprecedented boom in unleashing hidden talents, family time, empty roads, unlimited leave, carefree sleep etc etc etc. Can't you thank me ? The list is unending.
M : Wow !The darkest chimney calling the poor pot black. Here take a 100 pages handwritten bound book .🥶

The less said the better of the havoc and the wreckage you created when you unexpectedly descended upon us, that too uninvited. 🤯

Premature deaths , fear, unemployment, poverty, NAME IT, the worst of worst ( IN SUPERLATIVE, BOLD , ITALICS AND UNDERLINE ), you are solely to blame.

100 pages is just a pocket booklet. ( a mere Synopsis). I am writing a thesis, will courrier you very soon.😠

C: My other name is common cold and flu.😜

M : Kidding? You are a meddlesome mountain in front of those mere molehills. You liar!. You cheat! 🙁

C : Hey, cool down.
All you have to do is social distancing, maintain hygiene , wear masks and avoid crowded places...not at all tough .Simple yaar.🥰

M : OK! OK! Heard you. Please leave immediately. Do not disturb.🥸

C : Hey what is the dead urgency ?😣
M : There is for you. Your ravishing rival is all ready to ex terminate you.😇😇🥰

C : ( Frightened ) Who? Who? Pray enlighten me.😰

M : Covaxin and the countless other vaccines created by our Lord Sri Krishna.. You just can't escape now
🤣🤣

C : (Running like a lightening. In feeble voice ).Are they effective?😭
M : You find out for yourself...Bye! Bye! 🤩🤩

Moral of this light hearted banter, (hidden inside) is a subtle message.

Since evolution of mankind , our creator has gifted us unlimited powers to survive, sustain and sail through successfully.

Historical records point of the innumerable attacks , some man made while others nature's fury.

Yet , in all , we emerged VICTORIOUS. We learned our lessons and still going strong.

What future holds none knows. Anything new that strikes , makes its predecessor weak and feeble.

Lets all join our hands together and jointly resolve to face every future eventuality fearlessly, but as they say , Discretion is a better part of valour. Caution is the key.

We need to , from our side, fully nurture our dearest mother earth, who has so lovingly nourished each one of us.🌳🌷🍃🎄🌵🌳🌴🌻🌏🌍🌎

The mantra here is TEAM WORK ! TOGETHER WE CAN AND SURELY WE WILL !.🌈🌈

Pair of opposites.

Jai Sriman SriNarayanaya.

8540359265?profile=RESIZE_710x

 

8540359882?profile=RESIZE_710x

Pair of opposites.

 

Happiness and Sadness,

The Black and the White.

The Good and the Evil,

The Mighty and the Midget.

 

Are they different?

They are one and the same.

When one disappears,

The other surfaces.

 

THE SUN IS THE STAR.

In the dawn , SUN is splendourous,

At night, it becomes sparkling sapphires.

If the pair of opposites,

Are the same, then,

 

Let's hold both of  them,  in our heart.

Then only our life ,

Becomes liveable.

 

To accept and to adapt,

To rejoice and respect.

The pairs of opposites,

Is the only option left.

MODERATION IS THE KEYWORD.

 

Jai Sriman SriNarayanaya Namaha


8536147078?profile=RESIZE_710x

MODERATION IS THE KEY WORD.


Two pair of twins,

Money and Luck.
 
Fate and Hardwork,
One Haughty other gentle.
 
Fought over supremacy,
I AM GREAT! I AM GREAT!
 
Money claimed people adore me,
Luck boasted I am the most invited.
 
Fate and Hard Work slogged,
In  silence and solitude.
 
Net Result Money lost 
In Relationships and Health.
 
Luck was fairweathered,
And cast away in a jiffy.
 
Hard work reigned supreme,
Fate/ Karma acted impartially.
 
What one sows one reaps,
Here now!  But time it takes.
 
From action to reaction,
Lets not belittle the other.
 
Money , Luck, Fate and Hardwork,
All are complementary to the other.
 
What matters most is moderation,
Excess of any is poison.
 
Lets celebrate! to all the four,
We need and love all of them.
