DHAR DHAR TRAVELLER... YOU MIGHTY SAGE!

Welcome o Traveller, my spirit mourns for you!

Thank you for crossing my door for entering my domain. My heart shivers witnessing your sight..

Thousands unspoken words rest upon you lips. Thousands years of heritage blossom upon your shoulders. 

Thousand miles of dusty road rest upon your feet

Been wondering and praying and asking for you longer than the time could tell

Been washing my face with the Ganges for your light to come...

Been crossing my palms for your bless to rain

Been building temples for your sight to rest upon me

Been marking my forehead for you to build your temple in me

Thank you for coming, O I am not worthy for you…

I now bow my lustful body

Please teach me

Save me

Show me how to travel!

How did you do it? What forced you?

Teach me how to detach myself from the world and my luggage. Do I really need a luggage to travel? Where is your luggage then?

My luggage is my puny world, my poor spirit, my raw intellect, my thirsty senses, my mundane affairs, my struggle to survive. Survive for what?

You know my past you play with my present and you did not define my future? You say I can do that.

Can I? Worthy am I?

You have come to me… So I must be!

You have no luggage. Divinity is your water, blessings is your food, the world is your clothes. And yet I was taught to reject divinity to forget blessing do deny the world.

O mighty one…

My deeds choke me, the winds avoid me, only cold walls and their pillars surround me. Was that my fight, my goal? Infinite plains waited for me and I choked myself in concrete and walls. With my will to give shape to everything, to be able to explain everything...

... Can’t I accept just a little bit of mystery to exist in this world? Do I have to bring everything into shape and finity? How did I come to reject infinity?

O Mighty one, mourn upon this fallen soul!

Teach me how to travel

You walk bare feet, but I will still need shoes.

Yet you still open a road for me

Teach me how to travel it.

Save me!

THE PASSENGERS OF THE LAST METRO - WHY ARE THEY DIFFERENT FROM ALL THE REST!?

Whenever I am outside in the city here in Delhi I prefer to take the last metro that is supposed to take me to my destination. In order to do that, I spend a bit extra time with people I meet, or if we are supposed to finish the gathering bit earlier, than I spend some time in quite walk trying to feel the pulse of the city and the night atmosphere.

All this just to take the last metro for the day, somewhere around midnight.

What is so special about this?

Why I prefer to remain late just to catch the last metro?

Not only to avoid the crowd which is normal appearance in Delhi Metro in the earlier hours of the nights.

Because the passengers that can be seen in that metro are different from all the rest.

If you travel the metro by day you will be forced to practice your own ability of patience and tranquility while staffed in few inches of space surrounded with lifeless faces who just like you can’t wait to reach their destination and to leave the loaf of people inside.

However that is not the case with the passengers in the last metro.

They are different than anyone else.

What is different about them?

Let's first divide them in 2 groups:

GROUP 1- They are relaxed. Energy can be noticed on their faces and the spark in their eyes just seems to be waking up although it is late at night.

These are people that have decided to spice their own story, to leave their comfort zone, and to add variety in their life.

They are persons who despite their programmed working engagement in corporate entities 8-10 hours a day, have decided to break the routine and to dive into something new temporarily Attending a party, event, visiting a friend, to whom there is some time since they last told him/her how glad they are that they are part of their life.  Maybe tomorrow they will be sleepy for work, but they will also know that:

.... YESTERDAY THEIR STORY HAS GROWN!

GROUP 2 - Part of these passengers are again employees who came back from their extended working time. It is easy to recognize them. Most of them sleep during the journey and sometimes even miss their destination. You cannot notice the spark in them, because even if it exists, it is closed inside the eyes that are faced towards the floor. Their plan, their story for tomorrow is defined in advance, and can be described in only one word – SAME!

The first are usually in small groups of 2 or 3 people. You can notice smile instead of tiredness on their faces while discussing about the lovely moments or person with whom they spent their time. Their story is not a straight line of routine and mechanics, they liberate them selves frequently, shake their day, and the burden of obligations and excuses is no longer able to control and define them.

The energy they manifest exceeds the metro facility and penetrate your hearts. It makes you addicted with the desire to be always in its presence.

That is why I prefer to take the last metro, here in Delhi!

THE REAL STORY OF THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST!

Do you know the story of the Beauty and the Beast?

I don’t think there is a slightest need to describe this story in details.

The Beast which actually is an enchanted prince falls in love in a beautiful girl with saintly character, and at the end their love is summarized in happy ending where the Beast gets his initial human form.

However, before he gets back to his original form, he used to be a beast.

A creature driven by intuition that lives on a lower level of consciousness than people. Or at least that is what people prefer to think. This was the case until he face the real divine beauty represented by the saintly girl and regained the form that was meant for him – The Human one.

The human form is the advanced condition for which I pray daily that each one of us will reach sooner or later.

The Beast is a manifestation of the condition typical for most of us at this time, full with confusion, dilemma, ilussion, inability to give others our real love, inability not to hurt back in case we get hurt.

We are all condemned of being beasts during larger or lesser part of our life. The life on Earth is simply conceived in that manner, and our curse as being as beasts is supposed to strengthen us for the time we decide to start seeking perfection. Else, the road would simply be too easy.

The beast is something we should accept as part of ourselves first. The time period we are predetermined to spend as beasts depends on ourselves, whether it takes longer or shorter time to recognize and embrace the Call, as gift which is meant for all of us, the divine truth, as the saintly girl in this epic story.

Fortunately we are not alone in this story. The moments when we are alone, and no one is around, when deep thoughts occupy our every atom of consciousness , when we think – “What if things were like this or like this” That is the time when the guidance appears, the advise we longe for so much by a force greater than ourselves, a force that comes from our Father. 

You know what is the best thing?

The ideal situation we imagine in these moments is not some distant fantasy but on the contrary, the reality that awaits for us if we release ourselves from our own chains and give the world what has been given to us.

What we all can do is to hear our own Call for liberation and to start following it. The Call is reserved for all of us, does not know of discrimination, invites us all at once and one by one. There are many that complain that it is very difficult almost impossible. They might not be so far from the truth, but don't you think that it is worth it? Don't you think it is worth trying once again?

Some people remains beasts forever. They become accustomed to that lower state, they start considering it as normal and predetermined and they do not believe that the world can be something different. They call themselves by many names such as attheists, and their knowledge is consumated by illusion.

Some recognize the divine beauty, the human form, the Call and follow it. Sometimes they remain alone on the way learn a new dimension of suffering that purifies them and prepares them.

Is your choice to remain Beast and to ferociously protect the Rose that according to you defines what you are, what you are capable of and your limits..?

Is your choice to abandon what you think you know and start looking for the Human condition..??
