Faith

In a world of opposites, there is one word which does not have an opposite: FAITH. With faith, you move mountains. Faith carries you through every phase in life. Faith help transition from the physical to the spiritual. Faith provides value to the self. It is an unshakeable and unchangeable anchor.

Belief systems can change. But if faith changes, it was never faith.

Faith is as essential to man as breath. Otherwise, we would be like rudderless ships, lost in a whirlpool and never reaching our source.

Liberate

 Life is one big movie within the theatre of this world. We laugh, we cry, we suffer endlessly and unnecessarily if I might add the last word. At some point you learn to extricate yourself and watch this movie unfolding and are able to laugh at it!

Is anything permanent that we live attaching ourselves to it? You see people “close” to you moving away and you see some coming closer for whatever reasons. You see people judging you, smirking while some actually and grudgingly respect you even. However, our insecurities or otherwise, are generally the cause of how we shape our world. And this has little to do with others.

You will always find beauty in a stand-alone form because it seems to stand tall against a backdrop even of chaos. There is a sense of “belonging” to the supreme power which is the only support all creation has on a permanent basis. The cycle of the death of the old and the beginning of the new is a perpetual in the universe. The pattern is undeniable and unquestionable: the “tower” in the tarot cards, I think.

There is a steady stream of wisdom running before us, wisdom that when practiced, gives us a sense of realization of our intrinsic existence as “existence, consciousness, bliss”. It is the most liberating realization and one each one of us should strive towards.

Silence

Sometimes, over a period of time, you continue to see so much crap happening around you and in the world, that you reach a state of silence! There is so much to say that ultimately, there is nothing left to say. Speechless state!

I guess the mind has agonized and agonized, dissected and bisected a million times over and finally come to zilch. And that state of meaninglessness is actually the beginning of a new life within this life.

You care and care and care so much that one day, you have burnt your energies and your stamina to arrive at a state of exhaustion.

And then you pick yourself up to start living again and protecting yourself this time over.

It is constant learning. From reactions to anger to denial, bargaining with the self and finally acceptance of what you cannot change. So then, change starts from within. The start of a meaningful journey!
