Shivapuri - 9/11/2019 The Story of the Three Monks What is divine, shall remain in her divinity. What is mystery, shall remain a mystery. Deep in the forest. Forever Untouched. So it starts. Step after steps of leaving the world the behind. Nothing is for free. One choice leading to another. The law of receiving and giving. The air is full of silence from the night. Even my breath is disrupting the ways of the forest. My thoughts echo deep within the abyss of unknown. I wait. Sit by a flowing stream. The water is cold as the bedrock, as it washes through my being. I can feel the forest watching. Welcoming me with her silent gestures. I ask her, as I stop by these age old wilderness buzzing with her own spirit. Will you take my fear away? The watcher of the forest spoke to me. She said. She talked of the three monks. She said, meet them. I asked her, who shall I meet amongst them all?. She said, either of them. Half way through, I left with wonder; wonder for the forest, ...

Strolling through the forest, What is ahead, is left behind Steps after steps of thoughts dissolving into fear I am directly next to the buzz of the crickets The cracks of the woods Hidden away from the sun, the green world Dark but ancient Silent yet reslient Away are the temple bells and stupa drums The horns of the sacred echo resounding deep within I suddenly realise You see what your mind can see You hear what you want to hear Is it the questions you bring or you bring yourself? The door or the way back ? Deep within the mysterious forest lies Both the way out And the way within The doorway in or the way back? Deep within the mysterious forest lies Both the way out And the way within!

Bangalore, 2013 - Finishing up remnants of my thesis  A sweet reminder..  How does a full circle feel?  10 years into 10 hours  Like Waking up from a beautiful sleep They say you need  To fully wakeup, you become lost in your sleep One terminal into another As days turn into years  When sweet turns bitter-sweet  Karma, I see you finally  That smirk brings back the memories  Oh your whispers all these years I thought it was all me  The captain of my ship  My boat, my wind and the sea For a moment, It felt like myself Powerful indeed  Oh Karma. A bitter sweet reminder indeed!

Caption: Dakshinkali - 3rd Feb, 2019 "Painted Lies" She was there The winds lifted her I think I saw her once Her smiles were adorned Marvelous she was I think I saw her dance Her feets were not telling lies Is it still you? I saw you move your lips I think you only mumbled You were there The eyes don’t deny Unintended intentions Unspoken thoughts Who is gonna write her songs? If ever she is going to recognize The glimpses if she saw Would she be back? Would she smile? Would she dance again? I think she only mumbled All the painted lies Colorful they were All the painted lies   Its not for me to say What you carry If only you smile Her glimpses I saw Not sure if you want her back Deep down, I hope not                     All the painted lies          ...

June 2017 - Himachal Pradesh, India The mountains shiver Winds blow upon the howling night the spirits mourn the dying moon The darkness is at the gates feets they move drums they rumble hands they fly Echoes of the crazy heart Is that you? The sadhus they mumble Muddy lungs and bloody bongs  Puff the magic puff Poof the puff the smoke disappears in a blink let it go will you? Thoughts come in Dreams take over with the Day and with the night illusions into dellusions He is here not give Did you know? In the shadows he walks Burns what you have He is here only to take away Lives at stake yogis they cry Do you think this is that easy? All your prayers All your belongings All your dreams Burn them all will you? feet they move drums they rumble hands they fly Echoes of the crazy heart I see a glimpse O shiva where are you? -The Shiva’s Call!

Aug 2014, Udaipur, Rajasthan - India The Heart Song! Upon the silence of the dawn She speaks, the love song Where does your heart lie? Deep under your breath The mind takes the throne But the heart keeps the kingdom alive She is that tender love Boundless compassion With every thump of your chest With every blood that flows in your head With every race in your pulse Do you see how the dolphins dance in the air? For the heart is the sea She has no agenda Oh mother of the mothers Even once in a while   With every glimpse you speak You make sure the world goes around How you miss her everyday don’t you see? She has a way of guiding you Even to listen to her once in a while With all the life that she gives Oh Listen to her once in a while For the way is clearer Clearer than the moonlight, Oh Mother, Oh divine, Let me fall in love With the heart song you sing!  

Mardi, October 2016 The calling! What am I most afraid of? Maybe I should ask that question everyday I wake up. Even to leave the warmth of the blankets is a tough battle within everyday. Oh that call I had to make. No, maybe the morning plans I made. Sometimes time, the clock starts ticking along right after the sunlight you see. I am worried about all the things, the tricks that the mind plays on me. What I call life revolves around in boxes of little place we call homes is what I see. The walls that we put up. Even stronger are the ones burried deep within. Oh it is a daily battle you see. The winter is coming. Fight the cold, fight the world you see, What makes me call others once I step out, That wall which defines, Earth is there only when I need my vacation can you believe? Love is only there when I am longing don’t you seek? What I find is the loneliness I climb, Trust me what I speak, Just the warmth I seek, Only you see, Cold cold t...

Picture taken from gettyimages! What is more beautiful? Flute or the drums Hymn of the strings The silence in your face What comes before the thunder? Oh for the love of life The oneness in your eyes How you move your feet? I see you looking at me When I see within Sweet surrender that formless sky Take me within, the clouds that cover up Oh forgive me if I am drawn to your melody I have only a moment to spare Oh let me close my eyes I bow Oh you leave me with nothing I bow Oh you move me to the beats I bow Even with my eyes closed I can see I bow your grandeur is beyond I bow The words are not enough What is more beautiful? Nor the flute nor the drums Hymm of the heavens The smile in my face Oh what comes before the thunder ? Oh buddha of the buddhas Let me taste what you have found For I have only a moment to spare Let me close my eyes I bow Oh buddha I want nothing Only smile in my eyes What comes ...

Spring - 2011 What have we come here for? Deep down we all seek Nowhere but within I saw a vision Under the night sky it was By the shore By the earth floor   Barefooted we were dancing When we forgot our breath What have we come here for? Can we let go and just dance? What is this all worth for? Can you just sing to the beat? What is this all worth for? Maybe I am not throwing my hands and feet enough When the beat is growing louder All I hear is melody and silence All Compassion and nothing else Something familiar, but a distant memory We hold each other hands As we circled the fire Clapped and danced Braced by the eternal love We were taken in Joyful and free We were taken in And that’s how we were born Born into this world What have we come here for? All a memory But I saw a vision A dream I close my eyes I feel the dance, I feel the music Rebirth, it was all love and joy it was!
