Each Experience Completes

Life and its Experiences... We label experiences as Good or Bad.. Nevertheless they are just Karmic events unfolding themselves with someone as the Nimitta. The Essence is to take the Lesson perhaps and Move On... 

Even the slightest awareness about what happens around us gives us a glimpse of this reality... The most beautiful or the seemingly worst experiences in life lead us to a state of nothingness... A Vaccum !! 

As Gurudev has put so beautifully :  

"Each experience completes. Completion means leading to void or nothing. In the progression of life, you will leave behind every experience saying, "This is nothing." Anything that is completed loses its importance. That is to say it leads you to void - this is nothing. 

A sign of intelligence is how soon you arrive at this understanding. Examine everything in life and say "This is nothing" and what remains after all that, is Love, and that is everything. When "This is nothing" does not come out of knowledge, it comes out of misery.

 Either through knowledge or through misery, you come to the point of "This is nothing, this is nothing". The choice is yours. If you got this, it is really NOTHING, If you didn't get this, never mind - this is nothing. (laughter)

Now....

How long can we drive looking in the rear view mirror..

Life is all about letting go and moving on...

The hurts and resentments we hold, hurt ourselves more than others

Pain is washed away by time...

and Forgiving is living the moment, moments of gratitude...

Its all about the Now.... :)

Let Go... :)

"Just as the bird has to find the courage to let go of the branch in order to fly, so we also must let go of our branches if we are to know the exhilaration of soaring to the highest potential of our life.

The branches we hold to are our inner attachments - our beliefs, ideas and memories. And then there are the outer attachments - people, possessions, positions and privileges are a few.

But as long as we hold on to them we will live in fear (of letting go and loss) and we will never be free. And just watch those birds, by letting go of one branch they are able to spend the rest of their life alighting on a million other branches, and they enjoy the view from each.

Are you flying and soaring in your life, or are you stuck on one branch, cursing others as they fly past.

Go on, try it ...let go!"

Simply flowed..

The whirlwind of thoughts in my head, sounds of Ashtavakra and what flowed was this .....

Surface storms that rise and blow away
Life sucks and yet rocks and sways
Turning life towards a new zing
It’s the time to dance n sing!!

Life’s storms tear and rip,
Wave upon wave
Bigger than the biggest wave, stronger than the raging storm
Is the one beautiful youuuuuuuuu
Wherz the time to think when u can sing!!

Lashing waves n strong winds abound
The stillness n calmness
That watches these events and storms unflolding
That eternal witness is youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Forgetting the madness of this world
Let your heart simply swing n sing!!

This Moment

Through the laughter in the spring,
And the pain in the rain,
To the depth of existence,
To the being in me,
Every moment, this moment, fully lived, well lived.

The road less travelled,
That throws limitations to face,
To the path of love,
To the realm of bliss,
Every moment, this moment, fully lived, well lived.

Enchanting astonishing
This journey of life
Surpassing limitations, exceeding expectations,
Passion dispassion, which way to go,
Every moment, this moment, fully lived, well lived.

Endless questions, scant answers,
Travelling but nowhere to go,
Thy grace this faith,
Keeps life moving,
Every moment, this moment, fully lived, well lived.
