On days when life gets too much to bear
I just want to look within, without and withdraw
And then the din gets so much that the din becomes an ocean
A time when only a single word of wisdom is needed to quell the surge
The word doesn't come, the inspiration does not dawn
But the guru is never faraway
And for today I am picking up something to inspire myself,
Let's see what Kabir says for today-
सुमिरन से सुख होत है, सुमिरन से दुःख जाय
कह कबीर सुमिरन किये, साईं माहि समाए
perhaps I should just be with this thought for today-
(oh, this blog entry is not meant to be a poem, though the format is poetic)
Kabir's are the words that, at times, rock my consciousness. Just as some have a Christ- when they seek Jesus within their own souls, or others a Buddha, I walk with or in Kabir's. And the best part is that when i walk with One, i know the Other is equally splendid, equally close and equally resplendent. I am similarly enriched by the presence of each of these possibilities. For my own Infinite Self contains all these worlds. End of Duality. For this road, I take the name Prateeksha!
