The calling!

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 truth, is what I find
The loneliness within is that bare feet
What I call is mine
Why do I keep holding oh divine?
Freedom isn’t what I want am I blind?

It is in the forest I find. It is that silence. Where even the insects I find. The birds they join in. What joyful life. Even they celebrate the night. What awaits the misty morning, is what brings the silence within.

It is when the shoes become unnecessary. It is when the earth feels light. It is when the air feels what it is supposed to feel like. The rains they bring in moments of oneness. Even the blue horizon that opens up to the mountain sky.

Oh beloved. What am I most afraid of?

Isnt it the silence within? The silence that forms the sky. The joyful life. What is my calling?

Oh spirits of the forest. Let me wipe my eyes. Live more lightly you whisper. Feels like a distant memory you see. When you let me step into the earth you ask me. What is my calling? The blankets that hold me. Don’t you see it is a daily battle within ?   

What is my calling?

Humanity within. Love abound. When you love, you let go. When you love you come back. You come back to the world and see it as is. The cold as she is. The summer as she is. The nature inside you is waiting to meet what the nature outside is. What is my calling? The forest whispered. Come back lest you forget. She said, my calling is your calling. Finally I know, even the forest, she wants us back don't you see?

Medicina, Medicina!

  Art by Luis Tamani, link below! All the emotions suppressed,  What happens as the layers reveal one by one?  As the events unfold  The truth undigested  The past in front of you like a mirror.  How long can you sustain a smiling face?  Doesn't it get tired after a little while?  A little lapse and you’re in the same loop once more.  The thin line between the worlds  Once the box is open there is no going back?  Or do you?  Hidden underneath your suppressed voices. It's the stories of the cultures. The cries of the civilizations  Thriving in the whispers  What do you do?  When strangers cross their paths?  Who is the first to initiate the contact?  Or who is the one who feels the need to?  So you see it is the stories of the cultures. All the emotions suppressed.  The thin line between the worlds  A little lapse and you're in the same loop once more.  How is it any different?  ...

Let me graze in my space..will you?

Panchpokhari, November 2021 Let me graze in my space  Leave me at peace And all will be well!  As it is supposed to be But then you want trouble Everyone wants trouble, no?  Don’t you? Not that they are wanted  But they come chasing anyways Somewhere around the bend Just when all the troubles were away Simply following the lead  Leads coming from wherever  Who knows  But there was a perfect day  No it was a perfect shade No no it was perfect time No no it was the air  The loss of sense of time  Or was it the dimness of the sun  Sitting by the foothills  All the stress magically dissolved away  Comfort sinking in even if for a bit  As coincidences coincide  It is a time when you can rejoice in simply being Participation mystique they say  But it is true what it is that they say  Yes let me graze in my space  Leave me at peace And all will be well!  As it is supposed to be But then you want trou...

My first Qigong and Taichi Session!

  Luna in the middle followed by us practitioners on the sides! I was first surprised to find Taichi and Qigong public events at Couchsurfing. Even though not sure what to expect I decided to try it out because I have somehow always been appealed by the Taoist Philosophy. Having seen Taichi and Qigong flow movements in the movies and popular culture, I wanted to give it a try without a second thought. Thanks to the free session hosted by Luna and Nayeem! I visit Nagarjun forest/hill/region whenever I feel too clogged in the life within Kathmandu's hustle and bustle. The Nepal Yoga Home is located at the foothills of Nagarjun and at a picturesque location. In a way it is quite a place to host Taichi as well. Luna and Nayeem greeted me with gentleness and their warm presence. First off, Luna’s choice to practise outdoors was perfect. The fresh air outside was welcoming. And the view to the valley in the distance is a blessing in disguise. Even though I was the only one to show up at ...
