Poetry Again

1.        OF LIFE AND SMILES Bhagte raho Bhagte chalo Rona nahi hanste chalo Jo dikhaye ye zindagi dekhte chalo Raste agar ho kathin to bhi tum bhaag te chalo Ek din kyu ki zarur aisa din ayega Ke tu khud khuda ko kareeb payega Milega wahi jo tera dil chahega Jab tu apne mukh pe hansi layega 2.              Do not feel low of the bad days For every heart break you suffer, God creates for you a buffer, A place he holds for you so close, He wishes to give you your share of love dose…. But he examines your souls before giving you something… Free in this world is nothing… If you pass the test of god, You will get love a lot…. To pass this test of god, Just make sure you are not, Skeptical about the god’s ways… And are not afraid of bad days…… 3.              The pain, when you feel far away The cry of my heart, The pain of you, being apart, The frustration when I find you not close, This path which I ac

Difficult times are mirrors…

At points in life, often we are overpowered with a strong negativity around us. Those are the days, when we feel nothing is happening in our favor. We just feel we have nothing to achieve, and we are forever meant to struggle and be defeated at the end. Every single thing it appears, happens just to make us realize that you are not on the right path, and you should stop putting efforts to succeed, because you are not destined to… This happens with all of us, and this happens specifically only for us. But do these difficult times are any challenge, or meant for something above all this? The difficult times are back breakers for us. Nothing in our favor and everything against, every flavor it seems, is without taste. Difficult times, like a mirror shows us our own image, but the difference is, difficult times show us our true self, when we are gripped in a cage around us. Like we see mirror, where it appears that our image is confined to the boundaries of mirror, and there is n

The confused soul……

“Is this right or is this wrong? Am I mean or I am not? Should I do this or should I do that? What should I really do because anything I do, I feel sad……” The biggest irony of today’s world is that no one is happy the way they are. Everybody yearns. In my previous posts too, I have tried to explain that satisfaction is an inner feeling but still not found in this mortal world. So what should I do then? Why each one of us is confused all the time? Why is no one is satisfied. The reason is as simple as smiling with innocence. Because some things are not meant to be understood, some things are meant to left on their own. Some theorems are best when are not explained. And some devices perfect till the time, they are not opened up. My point is, people and me myself should, stop thinking about life as something which is complex, hard and impossible to decipher. This is because, we are not here to explain life, and to understand it. We are here to live our life, and

The unheard cry….

RONA TO AATA HAI BAHUT JAB KOI CHALA JAATA HAI CHHOD KAR…. DIL KARHAATA HAI BAHUT JAB JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR….. YAADIEN AATI HAI BAHUT JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR….. MAN MACHALTA BAHUT HAI JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR…… ZINDAGI GUMNAAM HO JAATI HAI JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR…. HAR HANSI DABB JATI HAI JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR…. EK GAMM REHTA HAI JAB CHALA JATA HAI KOI CHHOD KAR….. GUMSUM SA FIR JEEWAN REHTA HAI JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHHOD KAR….. EK ANDHERA CHAATA HAI JAB CHALA JAYE KOI CHODD KAR….. BHAGWAN KISI KO KISI SE DUUR NA KARE…. KISI KE JEEWAN MEIN GAMM NA BHARE….. KYUNKI GAMM INSAAN KO RULAANA SIKHA DETE HAIN….. FIR BHI GAMMO KI APNI EHMIYAT HAI JEEWAN MEIN… KYUNKI YAHI GAMM TO JEENA SIKHA DETE HAIN…. AANSUYO KO APNA KAR BHI HAR PAL ME JEENA SIKHA DETE HAIN……

The Web Of Desires…..

“Mennu ehh vi Chahida, Mennu Oh Vi Chahidaa, Mennu Chahida Chahida Chahida…….” (I want this, I want That, I want, I want, I want) A human soul is the slave of his/her desires. As a human, I always am in the need of this and that, and more than my need, it is the want of anything new, anytime and everytime. The human desire is that feeling which makes you crib for something till a point you do not have it. And as soon as you possess the thing, your soul starts cribbing for another desire to be fulfilled. These desires, range from having a big car, big house, huge money, success and position and a lot more. This desire to have something which you dream, has no end. Once you have one thing you start desiring something bigger. It never cedes away. Just make you restless till you achieve the thing you want. We often see people unhappy, unsatisfied and complaining about their current life, for the things they do not possess. But no one is seen being thankful for the things th

You are no demigod…

Demigod is someone who has spiritual powers. As the sun starts to light up our day, every morning, each one of us, start our daily schedule like the previous day. A student, wakes up and goes to school, a professional goes to his office, businesses start normal functioning and the whole landscape shifts from peaceful, sleepy and calm environment to the hustle and noise of the productive earth. The earth where each one of us is indulged in some or the other activity, the activity which we believe we can do, to progress in life, to a level where we feel successful. “But in this whole scenario, where do I, as a personality stand? Will I be able to prove myself a valuable part of this world? A world where everyone is always busy in proving itself better than the other one, where every single person is running the race for survival and win. To prove this, I need to brush up my knowledge and my skill, and achieve perfection, but as I know perfection too is a dynamic term whi

How to embark upon the odyssey of self-realization......

Do the question of self-realization haunts you at various points of life? Who are you???? Do this question comes to your mind every now and then?? If you think you are a broken spirit with no objective for life, or feel lost just because you are unable to find anything worth living, think again… are you on a right path of self-realization ? Or just are wandering from place to place in search of something which will not be found with the technique you wish to apply. Self-realization and the path to happiness is not a static one, which can be given from one person to the other. Self-realization requires deep concentration for your work as well as seriousness to embark upon the journey. At the same time, self-happiness requires a person to keep his calm maintained when situations do not favor him or he feel lost while walking on this earth. The road to self-realization is adorned with many thorns which are not like the physical thorns which make the blood flow

A support which change one’s life…

Every one of us have heard on common phrase, that we come alone, and go alone, in this world and from this world. A popular Hindi song even say, “ Kehne ko saath apne ye dunia chalti hai, par chupke iss dil me tanhaai pal ti hai…. ” If you have carefully heard this song, it portrays how the protagonist feels lonely without a support with him, the support of one whom he loves. This illustration shows us the power which a support has in our lives. But have you ever wondered that why then, everyone is so dissatisfied with their lives. There may be two reasons to it: Number 1: The person is unable to find someone who supports him/her. Number 2: He/she have trusted on the wrong person for support. But there can be a third aspect to this theory too. We come on this earth. Many of us think of its aim and many more never think about the reason for us to be in this world. In their journey, which is called life, they meet a number of persons, but not everyone stays with

What is God?

Faith is a stone which can shake mountains. Faith is a personal belief. Faith depends from person to person. We have faith in those people, things or events whom we believe can solve problems for us and make our lives smooth and secure.  The same concept applies to our faith in God. We believe in god because we have a trust that praying to god will solve most of our problems. Praying gives us a feeling of relaxation because when we pray, we transfer our worries to a higher power. Because of this, we feel faith in that higher being to a level where we begin to believe in it as a powerful source which can do anything. But have you ever wondered, if we believe in god to just ask his love, or just get our work done and transfer our worries? Who is god? God is a power, god is a spirit or god is something beyond our understanding. Who in reality is god? Is not god a power which we believe can do anything and make our dreams come true?  Is not god a power which can

Kuch bhi aasan nahi hota, Bin sangharsh koi mahaan nahi hota...

Jina chaahe aasaan nahi hota… Par bin sangharsh ke to koi bhi mahaan nahi hota…. Jab bhi darr jaaye shaksiyat jeene ke dauraan, Jab lage ab to bas gaye hi ye praan… Maan lena ek nya daur fir jeewan me aaya hai, Fir se ek naye tajurbe ne tumhe bulaaya hai….. Marna to ek din sabko hai, ghabraate kyu tum ho, Jeena to abhi poora jeewan hai, thak jaate kyu ho….. Agar acha mila to khushi dega, bura mila to tujurba, Koi bhi kahaani kabi barbaad nahi hoti, Bin ujade kabhi koi jagah fir se aabaad nahi hoti…. Rukengi nahi saanse jabtak samay aayega nahi, Nahi haaroge tum jab tak tumhara dil chahega nahi….. Praan tyaagna to door, ek saans bhi kam nahi kar sakte marzi se, Khuda smbhalta hai tumhe jab bhatakte ho manzil se, Kabhi khud ko naa maan na chota ya kamzor, Kyunki wo rabb kabhi nahi chorr ta tumhari dor….

I love what I do, because I do what I love……

The above statement is one of the most cherished ones in my current life. This statement projects my personal mentality for the work I do. In short, I love my job and I feel really lucky that I love whatever I do to earn my living. This is an extremely rare case as it means that you are totally dedicated to your job because it is more than a source of income to you. It is your thought process, it is your way of living. As I wrote previously too, that in order to succeed, it is essential to make your passion your profession, on similar lines, today I wish to ask each one of you that how many out of the total number of professionals actually love what they do. Most of us work throughout our lives, but only a handful feel the satisfaction of doing something worthwhile. That is because only a small proportion of us are able to do what we like, in life. For the rest, life is a race…. A struggle, a war, to be fought each day on the frontier of mind to kill one’s desire… In order

Do not just think act, too…..

Most of the times, when we think of doing something,  our thought remain limited to the confines of our mind and is unable to convert into actions. When something is not converted into action, there remains no chance of a reaction from the outside world . This means, without us acting to achieve something, we cannot dream of getting reward one day . Mere thinking about a better life one day, or success in our career one day, will not land us anywhere. To make sure that we are ahead of where we are today, it is essential for us to introspect our abilities, think over the opportunities, and act too. Act according to our thoughts of success, so as to give the environment around us an opportunity to reward us. Many of us would have heard the popular saying in Hindi that, “ Bina Marre to Swarg Bhi Nahi Naseeb Hota…. ” which means that there is no heaven without giving our own life, then how can we think that we would get a pleasant reward without putting efforts in this world. The

To work as per my passion and not profession:

The greatest fear of anyone around us, is of being not able to grab a respectable position in this society. As it was said in a famous movie that if we do not score good marks, we will not be able to grab a good grad college, and if there is not a good grad college with good marks, there would be no placement, no placement means no job, no job means no salary and no salary means no marriage. This means our society at large, is moving just to prove themselves on just a single front, i.e. to prove that they are worth marrying?? Or for that case, to grab a job which pays them handsomely. Is it the only thing left in our lives, to get money and family and get settled? What about our own aspirations? Each one of us, during our development stage, begin to develop some hobbies, some passions which we feel connected to. Some are too mainstream and some might even not be known to anyone accept us. If we stick to one of our passion, we develop a skill related to it. It may be singing,

When it’s not your fault….

As I walked in my office today, I realized I had forgotten something very important. The task which I forgot did not solely was attached to my responsibilities, neither I was answerable about it to anyone. But I felt that I should do that task. It was to plan a secret surprise for my distant friend, who is not in touch with me since the last one year. The following week is his birthday, and I really want to surprise him by my gesture. But as I came over my work desk, I saw the number of unread e-mails, each one of which signified some or the other official duty which I needed to perform. Hence started my day of endless work like the other days. In the cobweb of these duties, somehow I forget about the thought of giving surprise to that old friend. Days passed and the day of his birthday also passed without me realizing that it was his birthday. One more year passed without wishing the friend which meant the world to me at one point of life. What I was left with, was a guilt in my

Trust is the mother of betrayal

It is often said and felt that the one we trust, with time changes and with that change, one day comes a point when he breaks our trust. He/she does some or the other thing which not only hurts us but also brings to us an experience, a lesson, a feeling, a feeling of being hurt, a lesson of being betrayed and an experience of a lifetime. As we begin to trust someone, we start giving him/her more space in life, we start to give the person more importance and with time, he/she is the only one whom we feel emotionally attached and connected to. I had read a line which was written by a friend which read that “Do not give the key to your happiness to someone else.” That line still pinches me hard, to think and to understand how should each one around us gives our key of happiness to someone or the other in our lives. That key, I believe is one of the most valuable, more than the wealth of the world, because once that key rests with wrong hands, it can totally ruin one’s life and turn i

When situations entangle you …..

I tend to write about situations a lot. This is just because every day is a new journey and everything we face is a new situation which gives us valuable experience for us to relish and learn from, all through our life. Life itself is a combination of sweet and sour experiences and in life, we are destined to mix this sourness and sweetness to create a perfect taste for ourselves. Situations which lead to experiences, sometimes have a profound impact on our daily routines and sometimes on the way how we look at our lives. In this cobweb of mortal world, where we feel we are a spider ready to engulf any opportunity that comes in our way, actually we are being entangled day by day in the silky strands of this materialism and responsibilities which do not let us think above a pre-determined standard. This standard, I say is the standard of mortal world. Here the maximum one can achieve is mortal wealth, success or money. In this standard, one remains always perplexed and unsatisfi

Breathing in the era of pollution

In this era, when we experience pollution at peak levels, many of us wonder, how we are able to breathe in such an environment. If we look at the readings of harmful substances in the environment around us, we are shocked to find out how harmful it is for us to breathe. But, do we ever stop breathing? Do we ever do something that can bring about a change in these levels. Almost 90% of people are known to worry about such a situation but I am sure that not even 9% do something to bring about a change. Similarly, as the physical environment around us is at great pressure due to human intervention, our inner peace is also disturbed at large. This is because the modern lifestyle is known to give a lot of reasons to worry to an individual. People, due to work pressures or due to reasons out of there control, tend to worry at large. This causes depletion of their happiness and their soul, slowly. And this is what I call inner pollution. The phenomenon of polluting one’s peace due

Lost in the crowd

At various points of this continuously running life, each one of us come to a point where we feel stuffed. Stuffed because we see a number of people around us, people who are successful, the achievers, looking at whom we always feel low because we are not at their level of success. The people whom we see all around us, make us feel lost in the crowd, not even like the ones in the same crowd. We simply feel left out of this world, just because we begin to feel that we are not a part of this crowd. We are then left to believe that we are left behind to a place, where no one even bothers to look at us. This situation arises at various points, because of our failures, and also because we over expect from ourselves. We make ourselves believe that we can do this and that and even more than that, which rise our own self expectations. And as we move on, without fulfilling our own expectations, we feel lost and left behind. In this process, what we are doing is just losing our own self

Mujhe zaroorat ek ki nahi har ek ki hai……

Jab bhi dekhta hai mujhe koi door se, Samajh baithta hai wo ki khush hu mein apni zindagi mein, Na chahta hu kisi se kuch, Na dene ka khayal rkhta hu….. Par aaj chalo mein ek dil ki baat sabko bata hi duun…. Mujhe zaroorat ek ki nahi har ek ki hai…… Jitney bhi log aayein hain aaj tak jeewan mein, Unmein se zaroorat ek ki nahi har ek ki hai… Har koi hai apne aap mein poora, Ek bhi unmen se na ho to lagta hai jeewan adhura…. Chahe ho wo dost, ya ho parivar ka koi insaan, Ya ho wo koi jaankar, ya fir chahe anjaan, Sabki jeewan mein apni koi na koi jagah hai Kahin na kahin har koi aj bhi mere dil mein basaa hai… Jitney bhi log aayein hain aaj tak jeewan mein Unmein se zaroorat ek ki nahi har ek ki hai….. Samjhte sab aisa hai ki swarth apne ki vjah se sabse door huun, Har koi samajh baitha hai ab ki mujhe zaroorat unki nahi hai… Samjhau kin alfaaz mein unko ki chahe bat karu ya chahe kar na paau bhag daud mein Unmein se zaroorat ek ki na
