What if the sun sets were as real as the sun rises?


Muanpokhari, Shivapuri - Nov 15, 2019



I was stepping downstairs
Just like every other day
As you get tired from a long day
It might be from a rooftop place
It might be from your window
It might have been an amazing day together
It might be a way downhill
The view you were seeing suddenly gets your attention

You finally start feeling
This is it
It is as if all your past selves were suddenly drawn to this moment
Watching this together
Quietly as you sit
a moment
tunes itself into a view
You watch the smoke mix with the air
The forest growing sleepy with the setting sun
Birds they fly slowly and you follow them
all the way into the clouds
The sky suddenly turns into colors
Your thoughts pull you out into the city lights
You know how life is like back
You know how time is like back
You know as you open that door to step in
You know as you take your shoes off
As you allow yourself back into your room
The morning starts into another sunrise
The cycle of cycles
Your thoughts suddenly breaks
It is uneasy the feeling
You ask yourself, how is this different?
How is this any different?
Is other day any different?
Deep down you know
Something is not same anymore
What if the sun sets were as real as the sun rises?

As the view shakes you
You get back in your bike
The darkness falls in
You kick start the engine
As you go down stairs
Just like every other day
As you get tired from a long day
It might be from a rooftop place
It might be from your window
It might have been an amazing day together
It might be a way downhill
Deep down you know
Something is not the same anymore
What if the sun sets were as real as the sun rises?

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 ...
