Quietude







once again here I am

communicating with words

 words that have  power

to show, to guide

to lead one to experience

to shed the cloak of identity

words too recede

in the silence

where heart resides

oh! my beloved

this heart breathes thy name

thou are the one 

beating as I,I,I ..

Tracing The I



I wonder about 'I'

what is this 'I' really?

 body? mind? bundle of thoughts?

this 'I' feels so special

most intimate 

ever present

here I am

mixing up everything

rattling away

I, Me, Mine

You smile at my ignorance

making me understand

oh! my beloved it is Thee

who is saying 'I'

I am You 

You are I 

this heart chants Thy name as I,I,I

Tryst with Self





your smile bewitched me

the pure magical laugh

with a knowing look

stole my heart right away

tears of joy running down the cheeks

standing there in front of you

stumbling for words

I spoke to you

through my heart

no words were needed

just a simple gesture was enough

you knew what this heart was asking 

oh! my beloved

this heart chants thy name!

Kaashi Calling




a desire to see you was always in the heart

but I knew 

I had  to wait for your call 

 only if you wish then it would happen

many have waited lifetimes to see you

here I was with this heart full of love

wondering, waiting, wanting

suddenly you call me

 giving me no time to prepare

I come to you

eyes filled with dreams

to see you

to touch you

to hold you in my hands

to pour my heart out

oh! my beloved  how you tricked me

laughing at my predicament

teaching me to live

to go with the flow

to give up expectations

to see clearly

 to just be

you so gently made me understand

you are ever present in my heart

this heart chants thy name...

experience of Kaashi the holiest place to be

Kaashi meaning the inner light ..

Kaashi is ever present in our heart

Mystical Lines



the lines which differentiate between you and me

the lines which separate me and the world 

the lines which define me as ME

the lines which define YOU

the very lines are becoming blur

merging into one 

I fail to grasp myself

seeing only YOU 

inside outside

everywhere

your bewitching smile 

casts spell on the world

once again I wonder 

beating in this heart as I, I, I

thou are the one 

Oh!  my beloved 

 I see myself in your smile!!

Advaita


Looking through the eyes

Hearing through the ears

The rhythm of heart 

The expansion and contraction of lungs

All the feelings and emotions 

Dancing to the hypnotic tune

The operator runs the show

Hiding at the same time being obvious 

Surrender leading to recognition 

The ultimate truth reveals

Oh, beloved! thou are the only one

No two..
....

....

Now Playing ...

Lights, Camera, Action ..

Mother,Father, Son, Daughter

Each dependent on one another

Role play of life continues 

Each role so special 

Wishing for the play to continue forever ..

STOP

Who is acting?

Who is watching?

Dig deep inside 

The one who is acting is nonexistent!

The one who watches is eternal!!

The one who gets this is out of the role

Others continue 

Role after role

Lifetime goes away..

Another Human birth wasted ..

Oh! my beloved have mercy..

May this birth be the One

No more roles to play..

This heart chants thy name..
