~ Bornagain ~

-

Written longback, happened to rediscover recently, let me dwell in the memories of the state of mind with the most
powerful moments for my ownself....here it is, now....

born with a body and mind
unknown to my ownself
an orphan to the self

there comes a time
where rebirth happens
by the grace of the Divine
in the form of Guru

bornagain to know my
OWNSELF
embraced by the love of
MASTER
even amidst the whirlwind
IT swayed so gracefully....
no flood could wash IT
just flowed through IT

where are the protective arms
looking for alms now
no doubt the child has
to learn to stand on ITS own
if i am a child
mother, you will not withdraw
your loving protective arms
if i am an adult
i will no longer be
longing for...
so who am I

an orphan in a barren land.....

both the orphan and the barren land
still belong to YOU.....

nolonger an orphan of the limited
body and mind
just an orphan......

The Tamil word for orphan is Anadai, from Anadi - one without a beginning and an end. That is Consciousness itself.

~ "Adapt Tune" ~

An insight into a dance competition show. Unlike the regular performance where a participant proves his dancing skills to a song selected and well trained for it, here he is expected to dance to the unexpected tunes. The DJ on the set is the creator of the tunes for that moment. The participant on the floor is evaluated as to how well his performance is tuned in to the unexpected rhythms. "Expect the unexpected" and tune in to be your own self. Thats when the best of performance is unfolded. You dont perform but you just tune in to the rhythms. There is a subtle and yet a vital difference that distinguishes you from the rest. The sense organ, ear, lets the listening happen. The mind accepts the tune and the body adapts to the tune and thats what is called the dance. Firstly, one needs to be well equipped with the skills and thats what is called confidence. Without a proper knowledge and practice of the skill, one would only turn out to be a laughing stock on the floor. Once t

Let us a take a look at the transformation of a simple metal plate into a knife. The metal plate when processed through various stages gets shaped into a sharp instrument used primarily for cutting etc. Have you noticed, the process doesn't get completed in just sharpening the blade. It takes a complete shape only when a wooden handle is provided on one end. The one edge of the sharpened blade gets fixed into the wooden case, thereby, providing strong and comfortable access to the usage of the instrument. Left without a wooden case to hold, the blade still remains a sharpened tool but dangerous even to the user. Try holding a sharpened blade and make use of it. May be, your hands would bleed first even before making use of it. When looking at the mind, intellect and its connectivity to the Self, i felt it is easier to understand and relate it with the example of the knife. Intellect, as a sharpened blade is essential to discriminate, execute. It becomes a dangerous tool only when i

Eyes chose to embrace gently simply to let me dwell deep within Surging up like a lightening Stillness bestowed to realize The silence thats within and without Even while the sense chose To fill the ear with Divineful music Aware to the aliveness All alone in meditativeness To express the effects In words as here can the cause be contained In words of limitedness Bow down in grateful silence My own Beloved source...
