Spirit, art and life unfolded

 Lost in the haze Perplexing concepts swirl around, A maze of helplessness, a search for solid ground. Existence reduced to mere bewilderment, A struggle to find footing, a sense of discontent. Theories and mantras, tantras and creed, Leave me questioning, lost in a sea of need. No clear direction, no guiding light, Just the echoes of a desperate, sleepless night. The call of the clairvoyant, the mew of the cat, The bark or bite of the dog, all blend into a chat. Meaningless sounds, a cacophony of pain, A reflection of the turmoil that I cannot explain. At the bottom of it all, I find my existence, A fragile, flickering flame, a mere presence. A sense of helplessness, a cry in the dark, A longing for solace, a heart that's lost its spark. Lost in the haze Where are you? Meandering, drifting, floating and vaporized These theories, interpretations, mantras, tantras You may never know the essence Is it poison or nectar in the bowl Until effects seen, you may never know Delusion or rea...

 Sur niragas ho Never wanted to sink into these elements In this short, inept journey, I dropped rapidly Into this jaw Free me of negativity, anger, and animosity Sur Niragas Ho Full in the grip of these vile ways The coils tightening Prayer on my lips, I pray earnestly Sur Niragas Ho

 Mind games  Mind heavy since morning, Suddenly feels relieved and light. No weights lifted or released, yet the burden is gone. Clueless about happenings, why heavy and why light. Why the drift? Mind games beyond comprehension. Though I want to be stoical about problems, They seem to persist undeterred. Yet, the uneasiness has vanished. Constantly reviewing my thoughts, Wondering if I've been too idle, Observing people and behaviors, Questioning their transient moods, loyalties. Are they influenced by seasons or planetary movements? Likes and dislikes unserious, Much like our reactions to social media approvals. Are we too driven by external factors, Beyond our natural inclinations?

Let go When feel helpless, let go. When feel hurt, let go. When madness runs havoc, let go. When lies are traded, let go. When you can't set someone right, let go. When the precious is taken away by cruel rights, let go. When spite is might, let go. When all the good you want goes awry, let go. All is not lost. Nothing is lost. Something will set the atrocious right. Your cruelty will meet its dust. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do

The yogi's serene image sits amidst a pile of leaves, accumulated over time, his drawn-in stomach a testament to his ascetic discipline. His face radiates profound peace, his matted hair a symbol of his dedication to his craft. Despite days without food, his young body remains strong and healthy, his expression untroubled and free of grimace. This inspiring image is the embodiment of my aspirations, a beacon guiding me towards a state of inner peace, self-mastery, and harmony with the world around me.

On a rainy evening, I ventured out for a lakeside walk, despite the security guard's warning about the slushy road. The desolate landscape, devoid of human presence, was familiar territory for me. Yet, the rain-drenched greens and the lake's sheet of water, punctuated by raindrops, filled my heart with gratitude. The wonders of rain are unparalleled! Fear might have tempted me to turn back, but I pressed on, drawn to the beauty around me. My usual 3km circuit includes the other side, which I explored today, navigating the challenging road. The image I captured during my walk is etched in my memory - a serene scene around the lake, with buffaloes grazing happily, oblivious to the rain. The vast, green field is dotted with patches of water, reflecting the overcast sky. In the distance, residential buildings line the horizon, contrasting with the natural expanse in the foreground. A dirt path, lined with dense greenery, runs along the right side, indicating...
