God is not in temples !!!

Its when some incident or some person silences the chirping inside you, silences the song in you that you yearn to find God... Instead of trying to find God in white marble floored temples we just need to visit a hospital....
Its in those corridors and rooms filled with IV tubes, blood stains, medicine smells and injections that we see how people relate to God the most. With every wail and cry, with every prescription that the doctor writes , with every wheel chair being pushed towards the opertaion theatre and with every sign of recovery the patients make, God is remembered...
No temple can evoke the desperation of those eyes praying in the hospital..No temple can jolt us into believeing that there is a higher self ,just like a saved ,dear one, at the hospital can do...

I guess its human...To be oblivious about things until it hits us on our face... And so we remain oblivious to the fact that just visiting the temple doesnt connect us to God... Its the faith, its the patience, its the hope and most importantly, its the Karma that allowes glimpses of the higher self...
And thats coz , its never a power seperate from us, its all in us, just waiting for us to awaken and get in touch with it..

Reckless...So Often

Unable to decipher the reality from the illusion,
we go on living, feeding dreams to our delusions...

The conflict between the mind and heart, never seems to get resolved..
We keep messing up our present,
We keep justifying our perceptions,
Yet, we are unable to evolve..

Never are we sure what is wrong or right..

We become reckless
we become careless
we end up stuck in a puddle of filth
In an attempt to recieve momentary delight..

And so ofetn, emotions defy intellect and we allow them to dominate...

Silent emotions....

Sometimes i sit and wonder, but i am never able to tell you...

my silence is my own , yet i want YOU to be a part of it..
my tears are silent yet i want YOU to hear the scream in them...
if only YOU understood...
the lonliness needs you...
its the lonliness i experience....
only coz i got attached to YOU...
and then i sit and wonder... is it the lonliness we experience...
once we are in love.....

Our Thankless selves

Ambition, self obsession and narcissism has turned us all into thankless morons.
its when hurt strikes us, that we realise, how we never remember to thank people for the small things they do for us to make a difference in our lives....
We forget to thank friends for their support, we forget to thank parents for their nurtehring, we forget to thank or even express in some way, to our partners for bearing all our tempramental swings and we forget to thank God for giving us all these people who help us steer through life...
And then one day, when grief strikes us coz our love is not reciprocated, when our efforts are not appreciated, when our support to others is not acknowledged, its then that we must look into ourselves and see, did we give others what they deserved????
How will we get it back then???
After all we have gotten used to our thankless selves !!!!
