Joy!!!!!

Life is Beautiful!!! Yes it is!!!

But,

It is still waiting, waiting since I know it

Waiting for that which I know does not exist,

Future of then,

Hasn’t showed me now

That which I thought was waiting here today.

I now want to see it in the past of day after.

Even day after will have it not.

And I have known it all.

Everything I do,

Is to get what matters the most.

And “to get” what has always been with me,

With me but still waiting,

For a glance of recognition

I look at it not into the eye

I look for “It”, into “Its” eyes.

I know it know, I have known it before,

I realise it now, I have realised it before

Face on face for that doesn’t matter

Face on face, still, for what matters the most.

Certain of uncertainty.

Certain of certainty as well,

The shadow of the former,

Makes life the way it always has been.

Enough is enough; I want to see u into the eye

Love u not for reason

Longing, no one else could wait that long.

And yet again I lose the game

This close and that for still…..

And yes!!!

You r beautiful

You r my self

U r and all that comes is a shadow of yours.

Day after, tomorrow, today

Naa, not any more,

This moment here it is and in the next and

Further u came along…………………..

Mere Raab ko Naman

Aaj jo kehene lage toh shabd dhoka de gaye,

Doob gaye aakhon mein jaise, neer banker bah gaye.

Kya kahe unke bare mein jinhe, maat pita hum kehete hai,

Ghari ghari pal pal hum kritagya hue rehete hai.

Janam janam jo punye kiye the, inka humko saath mila,

Yug yug ki tapasya humari, inke roop Prasad mila.

Jag kyun puje ishwar ne, jaanu na main, main puju toh baat hove,

Aise ghar mein janam diya hai jaha swain tera was hove.

Prem swaroopi inhe banaya, apna roop inme sajaya,

Murat bhi jinhe mile wo bhagi, unka putra humein banaya.

Phoolon sa chehera dekhu unka, kali na koi khili aaise.

Ganga si vani roj sunu main, aab kya teerath, kava, kasha.

Budha, nanak kya bhaju main, saab ka such sang saath mila.

Gita, Kuran aap main hi, saab vedo ka saar mila.

Such ke baad dukh aave hai, suna hai maine kabhi.

Baat lekin sachi kahu main, dukh na maine dekha kabhi.

Baat jo juba se inkali, pal bhaar mein puri hui.

Maange bin kya kahu main har khwahish puri hui.

Laad karyo hai bahut lekin, jaarurat ki fatkar lagi,

Maati se moorat kiya hai, bin na hove maar kabhi.

Jhalke kabhi jo ek assshoon, aapka hiwada bhi roo diya,

Humaree khushi ke ek chan ko aapne apna taan man diya.

Prem mein chaha, prem mein manga, aisa bahut hai dekha m.

Prem mein saab kuch luta diya, aisa aur na dekha maine.

Haar swas se rin chukaye to bhi, suut bhi na de payenge,

Aatho yam raat kar ke bhi, ahyesaan apka na keh payenge.

Ek dua hi mukh se nikle, aur mangu toh baimanni,

Tu joo sath hai mere sath na kisi ka aur mangu.

Mera mujhme kuch nahi saabkuch hai tera

Tera tujhko saup du, kya lage hai mera.

Agar mujhme pran ho toh baas aapke hi naam ho.

Nazar hate is cehere se aab, yeh khata na hum kare,

Gunah se kam na hai agar, raab ke is roop pe palak jhapke.

Dear Friend

No words said, No vows taken, No story created to remember.
No promises are made to stay forever.
No thoughts exchanged to be together.
All futile, all impuissant, as a prayer from an ungrateful heart.
What words and gestures could never dream of,
A reticent smile said it all.
Eyes brought me innocence, when the first time they met my friend,
Caring, sharing, its nature said my heart next time we met.
My being knew nothing beyond, the divine love when saw it dawn,
Static in dynamism my life that seemed set forth on a voyage
Melancholy of loneliness breaking it along.
I love you more than a mother, loves a new born, dear friend.
I cherish you more than a king cherishes its crown dear friend,
By my side you’ll always be I have no doubt,
Where you be you’ll remember me, you have no choice.
Happy be you, come what may, joyous be you is all that my orison pray!!

THE DIVINITY

The glow, The charm, The elegance, The poise,

The grace that You so graciously shower me with.

The smile so enchanting, enslaving every prey, who gets to see You.

Your eyes always in Prayer of, graciousness and gratefulness,

Your form is the abode of the Goddess of beauty.

Your being is the serenity of lotus in water.

No ease it is to love dear mother,

And You just do it as Your very nature.

Your words if meant, enlightenment could dawn.

Your presence if felt, a dead would live along,

The Lord shall take care of me, why should He?

Sans duty the Lord remains since,

Divinity in You I saw, when it dawn.

Queen You are of mortals and Divine

If hearts are caged, where can the wings fly?

You paint the canvas with colors and oil,

Futile efforts You take, for reasons unknown,

Painted my life with rainbow of Your smile,

The world in owe of, to where You belong.

The twinkle of Your eyes Mamma, I know no God beyond,

Bless me with Your presence, till my breadths go on………………….

Unspoken love

my heart really pains to see my class...which is a home to me in this condition...........i just pray for the things to change for the good

Home is where the heart is
And my heart resides in the third floor of Stephen court

Hours of learning, minutes of fun,
Seconds of shivers, light years they covered

Memories so dear, hover everywhere,
How? How? How could this happen to me?

Good begets good, childhood taught me young,
Old obsolete teaching, that’s the song that was sung.

The game that is, even at my house
Played, management, government commoners, participants all in vain.

Ah! My heart pains in sorrow, my cheeks wet in pain,
My hands together in prayer, Lord in surrender I remain.

Time brings distance, distance brings separation,
My being is bereft of time and distance, ignorant of the word separation.

The gross seemed forgotten, ungrateful never imagined,
The subtle lies there soaked in gratitude tears of gratefulness.

My hears weeps as much as yours, I know you don’t deny,
I know, you know, I love you the most, words need not try.

The lord with me my family resides.
I knew he would, take care, he had no choice.

Words never said, I was concerned,
Capable of explanations they are, not prayers of love.

Times testing our mettle will soon find its way out,
Perseverance, passion, commitment will never let my family down.

Prayers are powerful, said Jesus when He came.
Pure heart is pious, Krishna’s words still remain.

Krishna or Jesus said this one gospel fact…..
Faith can bring back death to life; good times will have to return.

I bow down to the commitment, unshakable as the Alps,
Alps may melt down someday, but the sun would never stop to burn.

My heart is yours, will always remain,
You are mine, I will always claim.

Times keep changing, it will still change,
But static in dynamism, our love would remain…………………..

Question and Answers

These are some of the questions that were asked to parents at a premier school in New Delhi for their child's admission.......and these are my answers to these questions





Unreasonable indulgence by parents may produce undesirable effects

A river needs a dam to keep a check on it, or it causes destruction, but at the same time an excessive check leads to cracks even on the strong walls of the dam. Children are these waters, they have their own flow, parents are these dams to check the direction of flow, but an unnecessary interference my cause rebellion.
If imagination usually develops before the intellect. How will you nurture your three year old child?

Imagination is the doorway to creativity,

at such a tender age the bird of imagination needs to sore high. I would let my child unfurl its creativity by learning through Nature, through processes, at the same time I would guide the development of intellect of my child, by teaching him/her what is right and what is wrong.

Do you know that anxious fearful parent will cause anxiety and fear in his child? How do you see it? Explain.

Parents are the role models of their children and children are very likely to develop those qualities that are possessed or exhibited by their parents. Total lack of fear may lead to destructive tendencies. Like salt in food, little fear is required for one to be righteous. Fear and anxiety is love upside down, one is anxious for something one loves and is afraid of losing it, and this awareness helps me and will help my children counter fear and anxiety.

I give quality time to my children. Explain.

Children can find their best friends in their parents, but provided their parents are available to them when they need them, when they want to share something with them, and this is when parents can teach their child the basics of life, manners cultures and values, that’s how education at home takes place. This is quality time spent together where the child gets education in a subtle manner, and at the same time love and respect for parents manifold.

How important are values to you and how do you inculcate them in your child?

Imbibing Values is the most integral part of a child’s education, values form the foundation of a child’s future, education bereft of values is fruitless, and that individual gives no contribution to the growth of society or the Nation, which is the basic duty of every human being. I as a parent ensure that spiritual, moral, ethical and social values form the flesh and blood of my child’s character, thus not limiting his education to books but including yoga, meditation, spiritual practices, spiritual books, stories of great men and service to society even if it includes small things like feeding animals. Thus ensuring my child’s all round development.
