Who has the time!

When the time to spend with loved ones, is so short, who has the time to hate others, get angry on them, scheme a revenge for them, laze in fantasy or dream of heavens.

In an average lifetime of 80 years, 40 years are spent sleeping. Then 2 hours a day in Eating, take out 8 more years. Then 1-1.5 hours a day in Bathroom. Take out some more years. Then, transport. few more years gone. finally you do some much work for just financial sustenance.  And then, few hours a day, you spend with your loved ones... count how much time we have! and as you grow, time seems to fly faster!

One who thinks, I have lot of time, becomes lazy. One who sees the short amount of time available, becomes illustrious.

This lifetime is long enough to see the fruits of our actions, and is short enough to postpone anything good.

Happy Valentine's day!

"Oh, you love me so much!" :)

There was a time when people were shy to express their love. So the "I love you"s became fashionable.
Now its time to recognise other people's love by conveying to them, "Oh, You love me so much!"
Often people are seen making effort to prove their love, and its nearly an impossible task, since its beyond proof or logic. If you recognize other people's love, then they will be free from a burden to prove it, and more love will flow to you!

Most difficult thing to hide...

You can easily hide the thoughts. Feelings are not so easy to hide, looking at someone, you can see what he/she is feeling. 

More subtler we go, its more difficult to hide! 

Love is most difficult thing to hide...

Yet, it is also most difficult thing to expres..!

There were days when movie songs would portray the dignity in love. There was some depth in the expression. When will the days come back

where we can have meaningful lyrics, written from heart, not intellect, and such devout singing that simply conveys the feeling, the longing?

since the days when the media has become so handy and easy, probably the producers have lost the depth of conveying it can give, so the production is so shallow.

Missing you!

Oh my dear one, I am missing you badly.
What did you not do for me.
You were with me in rain, thunder or sun.
You never said no to me, and came with me wherever I wished to go.
You were always there for me, and now, even a day without you, is so much lonely.
You have become so much a part of my life, please come back soon!

See here the one I am missing:- My bike! I have given it to servicing.

Love’s in the air

Love doesn’t have to be said or expressed; it’s already there in the air. It’s a matter of recognition. And how so wonderful ways life has for making you recognize that you are… fountain of love!

And once recognized, you don’t have to do anything with it, apart from just being in love. Especially you don’t need to make love; it can’t be made, it’s not like a tomato soup.

What can be done is to uncover the obstacles that stop love.

Come 14 Feb evening and there are more depressed youngsters than happy couples! If you don’t have a valentine you are not cool is an equation that has been fed in heads of youth today. And as long as Love is equalized to a relationship it becomes a heavy thing. Of course every relation is based on love, but not every love needs to culminate in a relationship!

There is Western culture where love is expressed too much, and hence it somewhere, in some sense, looses the depth of expression. Isn’t it, what do you say… And then there is an Eastern culture, where people are so conservative, that they don’t even express the love for their entire life. They feel so stifled inside. What we need is a balance of the two.

When we are children, we go hug our parents so easily. As youth its rare, and so is our behavior towards our best friends. Somewhere, sometime, that sense of touch is left untouched, and hence a craving for that sense arises. If you don’t understand this, leave it. One friendly hug can dissolve all cravings and aversions. Someone has beautifully said this, “ A hug is a wonderful gift, one size fits all!”

… in love …

(I am ) in love (with you).
(You are ) in love (with him).
(They are ) in love (with each other).

In all these expressions, what is common is being “in love”! And that is what makes a big difference. People take so much pride in saying “I love you”, to the person they love. Of course it is needed to be said, but know that you are not doing any favor to that person by loving him or her! When you are in love, what is happening inside you… A certain consolidation of life force energy, certain sensations that are very pleasing, a certain pain of longing also, a certain feeling of oneness or belongingness…
Of course the other person may have been responsible or a cause for this to happen inside you, but what we forget in the process of being in love is what is this happening inside us. We label it to the other person, and when next time that if the presence of that person doesn’t cause that experience we have within, then our love for that person weakens…Observing what’s happening inside us, gives strength to the love we have for others. Then it can’t be taken away by events or circumstances, people and emotional outbursts.

Is it Love? Really?

Some people discuss whether love at first sight exists, some wonder about it, some wait for it, some wish it never happened!

Love is effortless. To read this blog needs an effort, to love someone needs no effort!



Then there are those who wonder if is it Love? Really?

Ok, let me ask you something. When its dawn, there is some light, and some part of the room is still not lit. Do you question, is this light? Do you question in the totally dark room, is this darkness? Same here. No point in questioning love! When you are questioning something, it means it is already there...



Give me 5 kg of love please.

Sounds ridiculous? Yes it is! Because Love can't be measured! Still, people keep saying, I love this more, that more, they compare - as if it came in dozens or meters. 3 meter of love for person A is more than 2 meter of love for person B! So ridiculous to compare your love for someone with love for someone else!

What can be measured, is an illusion. e.g. 5 kg rice would "feel" to be of some "weight" on earth, and it would be "feel" to be of less "weight" on moon. Its relative.

What is absolute is that it is rice, 5 kg or not.
