कैसा यह नाता है सांसों से सांसों का ...

Kites

दिल की पतंग हवा में गोते खाती है

ढील तो दो देखो कहाँ पे जाती है

उलझे नहीं तोह कैसे सुल्झोगे

बिखरे नहीं तो कैसे निखरो गे ..

Here n There .. Now n Then .. I see bliss ..

Some set of people are awesome... They make you sit back and enable you to see nothing but

the moment ..Vishal (one of many rare gems folks at Art of Living) turned a boring metro

 trip into a wonderful musical journey ..Just notice the music's magical effect on everybody

 travelling .. It seems that they have left all their worries.  We all are meant to happy though

 it is easily it is the most forgeted laws of nature .. and music brings  back to the state of

 inevitable happiness ..All I could do is to capture it and you do the rest  ... sit back and have

 a virtual metro musical ride ..:)

Musical Journey

Google Se Bach ke kahan jayega..

After Ages Finally I dropped in a hall to see a movie call Paa . The name fascinated me as I call my Dad as Paa. Just how Amitabh Bachan used to say “Paa “ made me develop an affninity towards the movie and of course it comes from the makers of “Cheeni Kum” whose one liners are still a part of my lingo aka Ghass Phuss and Silent Movie. As I came out of the movie hall, I decided that I would write on it. I love the movies out of which I can take something back home and Paa comes straight of that class. The first things which made the pennies worth is reaffirmation in the movie that there is nothing bigger than truth. The way Abhishek confesses being the father of Auro was simply superb.No matter how much deep shit you may be in , if you stand by the truth their is no way but up up up. And the other big thing which was an instant take away was that you must feel for a person who has accepted his mistake and is sorry for what he has done. Another legendary performance from the legend, it seems he is getting better as he is growing older and playing a role of “old” child is special. The best part was the relation between mother and the kid. The film depicts the mother’s love for her child in a perfect way. I always have a view that we all take it as a very underrated and taken for granted form of love. With due respect to romance , mother’s love is not as glorified as it should be.My belief is no matter what happens to me tomorrow, if there is any person standing by me that would be my mother. That’s the purest form of love. A stunning looking Vidya Balan personifies a steel nerved woman standing by the tough times and growing up a special child. A tribute to motherhood. A must watch. And make sure you say sorry or start accepting someone's “sorry” after seeing the movie...

Don’t miss the awesome monkey dance and the way Auro says "Google se bach kahan jayega" and "mujhe poti jaana hai"

kya ye sach hai

Kya yeh sach hai

khushiyon ki na hoti koyi sarhad

kya yeh sach hai

sapnon ka na hota koyi mazhab

kya yeh sach tera suraj

kya yeh sach tera chandrma

kya yeh sach hai tera jahan

he gar tera jahan !!

diwarein kyuon yahan??

Tu hi dukh ke nisha de ...

Tu hi sukh ka savera ..

main jo badhkun tu disha de..

lun main bas naam tera

ha yeh sach tu hi mera..

kya yeh sach yeh tu hi zindagi..

han yeh sach hai ...

han yeh sach hai ...

It's all you

This creation is a celebration of your presence

I see you in the leaves, in the petals , in the flute ,
In the thorn, in the unseen
It’s all you and you and you
In the bark or the thorn or the roots in the mud,
Your face is reflected , smiling and dancing and laughing and singing
It’s all you , it’s all you, It’s all you
In the tears of joy, in the tears of sorrow alike you play, you
Dance, you sing and you celebrate
It’s all you, it’s all you, it’s all you
For each glorifies the other.
Everything in this creation glorifies everything else.
Clapping my hands together, I rejoice in your presence
It’s all you, It’s all you , It’s all you.

Up and above !!

Love

Whats Love

I just keep asking this eternal question to people or keep on observing this phenomenon called love . I have developed this strong belief that love is everywhere in our daily life . Well here are some observations

Love is when my Ma makes chai for my Pa and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.

Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.

Love is when you lend somebody some money and dont expect him to give it back ...

I know my older sister loves me because she knows that I would stay up and take care of her kids , so that she can sleep.

Love is when Ma sees Pa smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Sanjeev Kumar.

During my flute recital at home, when my everybody is pissed off listening to it , Dad smiles.

Love is when I was sure that Ma will be fine even before she went for a heart surgery.

When you go out and offer your munch to someone, without waiting for the other person to offer you his

Love is when you have the ice cream together.

Love is…When you tell someone…something bad about yourself…and you are scared that,person won’t love you because of what you said…then that person surprises you by loving you even more.

Love is when you want the other person to listen to your favorite song again n again.

Love is when your child comes running to you and give you a hug just for a chocolate, immediately after you have just yelled at him

love is when i hear somebody say “i am with u”…

When you are miles and miles away yet you feels so near

Love is when you are willing to stay up all night, just to be with

Love is getting struck by silence and loss of words when wanting to say a lot

Love is knowing you’re never alone no matter what happens in the world.

Love is when a person says I hate you and you know it hurts that person even more

Love is when I sit with nature, and everything just seems so much in love with each other.

Love is when how much ever I may fight with my parents, if they’re gone for 5 days, I feel like a 5 year old, helpless child

Love is when one is hurt, and the other is crying…

Love is..when I do the impossible, Only because He told me to do so!!

Love is when you just cant help rising and getting better .

Love is when you are in full devotion and u start worshipping.

Love is when u say to someone 'Tu Bin Bataye mujhe le chal kahin "

Love is when you don’t ask ‘What is love’. You simply know !!

Moon : I see and when the eye is opened, all is light.

As i finish my rendezvous with the moon in an awesome full moon tonight , it make me feel compelled to write about the lovely celestial body right here right now. On this full moon night it feels as if it is a marriage of light and love . As they say the moon is the planet of unconcious mind,The moon rules desire as opposed to ego, need as opposed to expediency or reason. It describes how you feel about yourself, how you handle relationships, and how you emotionally respond to situations and experiences. Well to me , the full moon night is something I always look upto . It feels like the while light resides in every atom of thyself. As if i am getting an healing all overand mind is getting subconciously sublime.

As William Blake said

The moon, like a flower

In heaven's high bower,

With silent delight

Sits and smiles on the night.”

Humein Raston ki zarurat nahin hai .. hamein tere peron ke nishan mil gaye hain ..

This one is to express my indebtedness to the master who has always saved me whenever i go off track .Lately , I have felt that he has been holding my hand and walking me through ... I was always depended on my mind to see the known but it is my faith for the master that I have now started believing the unknown and its making my life as fresh and weightless as never before .I feel as if that I have been changed to somebody to nobody and I am loving it .. It feels amazing to be a beginner and work for an unselfish cause . There is nothing fulfilling than what I feel "Right here Right Now".

Keep Walking ...

Money can buy almost anything

But anything's nothing when you're dead

So just Keep Walking !!

Paint my imagination

just came across these beautiful pics and could'nt resist to capture them on my I phone .

The pics say a lot .. dont want to put give them any captions

the best things are undescribable

Sound the bugle now

Whnever I feel low .. apart from a wearing the red colour these lines from Bryan adams have always been a shooter .. gotta share with u all mates .. try it hearing on You tube .. may help u most when you need it most .. cheers.

Sound the bugle now - play it just for me
As the seasons change - remember how I used to be
Now I can't go on - I can't even start I've got nothing left - just an empty heart
I'm a soldier - wounded so I must give up the fight
There's nothing more for me - lead me away... Or leave me lying here
Sound the bugle now - tell them I don't care
There's not a road I know - that leads to anywhere
Without a light feat that I will - stumble in the dark
Lay right down - decide not to go on
Then from on hight - somewhere in the distance
There's a voice that calls - remember who your are
If you lose yourself - your courage soon will follow
So be strong tonight - remember who you are
Ya you're a soldier now - fighting in abattle
To be free once more -Ya that's worth fighting for

creatively imaginative ...

Your smile is like the hues of dawn,

Your eyes, like flowers on the lush green lawn,

You walk past me like a fragrant breeze,

Your very presence puts me at ease,

Your sweet words put the cuckoo to shame,

Can I Oh honey, give you a name?

You’re purity personified like the lotus leaf,

To the worldly talk, your ears are deaf,

You’re majesty is like the Ganges divine,

Take me into your fold Oh my love pristine

.I don’t want a tale on the sands of time,

Nor is my love bound by Nature’s clime.

I know not Meera’s yearning in trance,

Nor Radha’s love in her cosmic dance.

My love is in my heart, it’s my breath and my life,

Make my life a part of your life

Sorry Mr. Terrorist ! You picked the wrong city

At 3 am on 26th Nov morning, five hours into the attack, with gunfire and grenade explosions going above her, the receptionist picked up the phone at the Taj and said "The Taj Mahal Hotel, Good morning" . Mumbai will not be cowed, it will not be beaten , it will not be beaten, Yes , if the entire city had a receptionist as a metaphor , I believe that this is exactly what the world out there would have heard from Bombayites that fateful night .





The present moment says
We are fast approaching a the stage of ultimate inversion, the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens act only by permissionm , which is the darkest periods in the Indian history .. I think we were better off being ruled by the british.. Democracy has become a rogue for India .. Its a tipping point for trigerring one more battle for freedom .. as to what we fought for 61 years ago .. The FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT to "LIVE"

Dont just sit there watching news .. till the new channels themselves forget it .. We are a country of one billion people if all of us actually did something this time .. theres is no way the'd let this happen to us everytime .. dont forget it


NOT THIS TIME


E.N.O.U.G.H is E.N.O.U.G.H

Blind Date

One day as I was traveling back to Bandra in that crowded train, there was this man sitting next to me wearing white kurta pyjama & dark glasses and looking out of the window. He was humming an old hindi film song. Suddenly he asked me without looking at me, why am I so restless. I asked him how does he know that I am restless. He said my body language indicated that. After sometime he again said that I must wear colourful clothes. I looked at my stained cream coloured T-Shirt and kept quiet. Then he said" sometimes a colourful shirt can change your state of mind". I asked him why was he wearing a white kurta pyjama. He said that is because he was not restless. At Dadar station he got up walked towards the door of the local train, pushing the crowd. Somebody shouted "get off my foot, cant you see you are standing on it". He turned towards this man and said," I am sorry I did't see. I am blind" and disappeared in the crowd.
I looked at my stained cream T-Shirt and wondered at the thought of the blind man talking about colours, Since then, whenever I am feeling low or not in my elements or slightly off colour, I pick up a red shirt and my day changes its colour. Try it… It may work for you too…

Ice Creams and The present Moment

srry bawa but its the only way to tell my freinds about this..

This is from a few years ago...Beamish and i were walking along a beautiful shady lane in the dadar parsi colony of Bombay. We were both eating a naturals ice cream... and suddenly Beamish got very excited... his eyes were shining, he had had a realization!He said Do you see how we feel that the last bite of the ice cream is special? We eat the whole thing, but then really, really savour the last bite... Why don't we eat each bite as if it's the last one?!Why can't we live life, each moment to its fullest? Savouring it, relishing it... Like its our last...Living in the present moment means eating each bite of ice cream as if it were the last one!!!We really enjoyed our ice creams after that... :) I love Ice creams
