Act of Forgiveness

See how ducks teach us spiritual lesson,

Just watching them also is meditation.

Utterly present in the moment at ease,

So dignified! Silently they float in peace.

Aware and conscious as a timeless devotee,

As perfect as a mindless being can be!

 

At times two ducks fight for no obvious reason,
Or when one strays in other’s private possession.
Clash ends in seconds, calmly they separate the way,
Vigorously flapping wings few times, gently they sway.
In serenity they move on in their own trend,
As if the battle had never happened.

 

Observing their act for the first time I believed,
By flapping wings, excess energy the ducks released.
Preventing from being trapped in their body,
Keeping away from converting into negativity.
Natural wisdom this is, easy for them to let go,
They don’t have a mind, with false self or ego.

 

Offer no resistance, let life to flow through,
Resistance is your mind; acceptance frees you.
Accept what can’t be undone, surrender to what is,
Forgive every moment, allow it to be as it is.
Submit your self to divine intelligence,
And He calls us the best of His creations!

Stations of Soul

Contentment, ultimate desire, then Love,
Like the river, then ocean and so the shore.

Earth, fire inside, and then the light,
As coldness, rain and then sunlight.

Separation, Oneness, then endless yearn,

Destruction, calmness, hence evolution.

Knowledge, self-restraint, then illumination,
Stillness, then silence, then revelation!

Signs of understanding for me and you,
This transitory world is of little value.

All Inside of You

In the deepest depths of your entity,
A kingdom is concealed in secrecy.
There is day inside, there is night too,
The world is hidden all inside of you.

 

When malice casts its gloomy shadow,
Fear prevails when you let it grow.
When grief masks upon true value,
Darkness spreads inside of you.

 

As faith supremacy conquers fear,
Spirit smiles, colours of love appear.

When rivers of light flow all through,
Sun shines bright inside of you.

 

Each time a new "you" will evolve,
When unique thrills inside resolve.
Sorrows, happiness all veiled in you,
There’s life inside, there’s death too.

 

Deep inside heavenly seeds are born,
Same place within, are worldly thorns.
Contend the rivals, guard inside of you,
There’s divine silence, there’s evil noise too.

Awaken The Soul

Profuse riches and worthy treasure,
Possessions in plenty all you gather.
You build your forts here-to-fore,
Bountiful colours of fake, you adore.
None of these with you will remain,
Bare woodlands will be your domain.

Oh my heart, why indulge in sleep,
The journey to divine is yet so deep.
Seek nothing now, but the Source,
That is the remedy, the Only force.
Like clouds, survival passes away,
Awaken the soul, travel Enlightened way.

Oh beloved, death lingers over your head,
Will suffer many cycles, if in this you forget.
Love for Divine is the light of essence,
Without it is an ocean of darkness.
Set free from illusion, surrender in Love,
Be one in Him and rise above!

Beauty All Around He Spreads For Me




In His heavenly canvas with love only,

Created the world when He felt lonely.

Acts so artistic when He composes a life,

In a lump of clay He pours in His light.

Sprinkles love to mould in the mixture,

Till he crafts it in His own picture.

He is the Lord of utmost glory,

Beauty all around He spreads for me!

Lit the sun and fixed it in sky,

Tossed the stars up in the high.

The love Sun holds for the Moon,

Tenderly brings it out from gloom.

Sun offers its flaming golden caress,

To make the moon glow in the darkness.

All work of nature embraces love for me,

Beauty all around He spreads for me!

Glosses of paint He sprays in the garden,

Gives them life, dresses them to be flowers.

Fanciful blossoms display their colours,

Invite the bees to be their lovers.

Deep in love, honeybee kisses the petals,

In the fond of nectar, lovingly it settles.

With all this love, He brings me honey,

Beauty all around He spreads for me!

When Love Comes, It Never Knocks!

When love came to me,

It never knocked.

The spirits blended,

Emotions interlocked.

Feels like some heavenly force,

For this is love ofcourse.

Your blissful presence,

Now dwells in my essence.

Being with you, how well I foresee,

A perfect place it is meant to be.

A special world for you and me,

A pleasant bond no one can see.

My love for you is so strong,

You’re the melody to my song.

I hear in every verse I sing,

Ecstasy you always bring.

Oh you are so like me,

You are my remedy.

When I look in your eyes,

I witness paradise.

My heart dances in serenity,

Oh you complete me perfectly.

My love, I give you my heart,

Without you, I would fall apart.

It’s you, yes you, only you!

I Love You, yes I aver!

I love You Forever!

Wake Up & Rise!

Wake up beloved souls,
Wake up and rise!
U are sent as best of all,
Stray not and be wise!

Your Master is never asleep
The Sahib is never at ease
Oh slave of the Master
Why do you adore to sleep
And why not reflect in deep?
Wake up beloved souls,
Wake up and rise!

From the heights of paradise
Through the closure of night
The hoors arise
Bringing vessels of light
For all those who are wise.
Wake up beloved souls,
Wake up and rise!

Stay up in contemplation
Seek and glow in compassion
Leave the sleeper’s nest
Search for eternal rest
Indeed the light will reveal
For all those who believe.

Wake up beloved souls,
Wake up and rise!
U are sent as best of all,
Stray not and be wise!

A Companion's Dream

Wih the inception of dawn,
By the first light of morn,
In the abstracts of my dreamland,
And with my guitar in your hand,
Oh you appeared before me,
Indulged in absolute fantasy!

You drew on those strings in marvelous way,
Identical notes that I so desire to play.
The words so dear and the tone intimate,
Resembles to me, my soul could relate.
In my emotions you become so clear,
As if not you, my reflection in the mirror!

“The message explained in dreamily expressions,
See my dear, is rich in significance.
The musical note is the wisdom we share,
To pull the humanity out from despair.
The guitar as divine path and the strings are us,
Sent down from heaven as God’s agents.”

On the stage of life, lets take a semantic role,
It may be vain, but it is a wonderful hope.
A cherished desire in the force of life,
In train of pious thoughts the world would drive.
Let us make this world a place so bright,
For our fellow beings, yes we are the light!
