Voices Without The Body

Sometimes I do feel my life is a complete treat. I enjoyed my childhood in a join family with 5 extremely lovable brothers/sisters. College life was even smoother. I got few great souls as friend in my life. I started my professional life with a big head company. Got writing skill as a gift from god and also got AH Poetry and Solitary Retreat as platforms where I could improve and explore my abilities and skills. Most amazing thing happened this year when I married a girl with whom I wanted solely in my life. I got such an amazing parents who supported me whole my life just to make me what I am today.

But, today, the morning is looking annoyed. A serene isolation I am feeling around. No morning Aggarbatti Fragrance is pampering me, No bells are ringing, No washing machine is roaring, no cooker is whistling. The room is as empty as the sky after heavy rain. 

My mom used to wake me up with a kind pamper, my father used to wait for me on tea table till I recover myself from my sleep, my grandfather used to wish me good morning in such a warm way that anybody and everybody feels refreshing. Those days were still alive somewhere in my heart.

Yes, I am missing my parents, my longitude and latitude. Yes I am missing them badly, in every breath and every beat. I used to tease and irritate my mom but today that is irritating me. I used to tease my father but today that is making me angry. I have become a responsible man but with fear and isolation. Life is a real joke, you start walking with a hope of getting better scenes ahead and suddenly you find a curve that sails you to the point from where you have started your journey.

What is the use of a life full of pocket but with empty mind, what is the use of life with full of opportunity but no fortuity. But that is how we take birth, that’s how we grow and that’s how we learn. Life without parents is like living in a well of dark, no matter what direction you choose, you will surely hit your head on the wall. You feel like you are inside womb where you just can use your hands and heart.

In our entire life we try finding solution but we often ignore the hidden message from god:-“Soul-Is-Ur-sun”. We always try to wake up our mind but we always ignore and forget to wake up our soul. That is why we feel Isolated, with no soul. but I feel, someday, somehow, I will find that bell, that serene pamper, that classic touch that will wake my soul up.

Missing you mom and dad, USA is not a different planet I know but yes now it’s a total different life. And I am living it rather trying to live it and thanks to my wife Kavita for being a light and ladder, thanks to her for being always there with me.

Soul In The Tunnel

"From the window of a hopeful eye, what I see? I just check and confirm whether the light has appeared in the sky or not? The clicking clock, the buzzing tunes, the sun light wakes me up every day. I never try and ask my soul, I never talk to my subconscious; what are their definitions of morning. I am so dependent upon the light and so are you. Often in the bed, our subconscious wakes up our mind and we get up just to confirm whether the sunlight is there or not and if not? We wait and wait till the light appears. We make the subconscious wait along with us. We increase the eagerness to have light but we often ignore life-soul by doing that. We have miss out the beauty of empty road, naughtiness of morning breeze often just in hope of having light soon.

The isolated soul in the dark tunnel will never find the way… soul will eagerly try and find the light and that will often misguide him. Why can’t we just follow what our soul says and not our brain? Darkness has always made us scared, weak, dependent. We are so aggressive at darkness. No matter how strong our will power is to chase the destination, we often lose our strength, the moment we lose light and by doing that we often forget that the life is still there, the strength is still there, the commitment is still there, the soul is still excited to chase, to race. Light has won our civilization that we just don’t use light as reference but as life and by doing that we are ignoring the hidden meaning of light(lie-it) and what we receive from light is life(lie-if) but it is not the case with soul of strength. It helps us to refresh (re-phrase).

Recall your childhood memories when you were a baby. We used to wake up early in the morning and play with darkness, but with helplessness. We used to cry and cry till somebody comes and take us out in the air. Situation is no different, our soul used to cry in the morning but we can’t hear but we can feel and probably, that’s why we find our eyes blurry in the morning.

I am not against light and its beauty my friends; I am just against the dependency that we have created on it. Leave your bed, go to your balcony early in the morning or at midnight and just see the things you usually see when having light. Just feel the darkness. The same old roads, the same shadowed trees, the same vehicle honking but still the beauty, you find it unseen, unexplored. You will talk via soul not via mind. It may bring thrill but it will for sure keep your soul alive, dancing, and full of strength. Listen, the bells are dancing along with cow in the dark; listen to the morning AARTI drums, the conch is calling you, they are giving you a wished life.Try it-get it.
