How It All Began.....................


I still remember the day it all began.

In an ocean full of grace and love

Though unaware, I was bathing.

With a heart full of excitement and innocence

Like a huge wave of unconditional love YOU appeared

And washed away all my ignorance,

Awareness dawned and I realised the truth

Though I saw YOU for the first time

I felt a bond of ages!!!!

YOU were seated far apart

High on the stage.

But I felt so near to YOU.

To YOUR sacred feet, my heart flew

Ah.....how innocent it was then

I knew YOU too had received that humility

How I knew I myself don’t know...

Tears rolled down my cheeks

The eyes closed themselves ;

My whole being swept into such ecstasy

Such contentment it had never known.....

The drop had met the ocean

The ocean welcomed it into its arms.

Since that day my life changed

Each night blessed with tears

Oh......tears of longing and gratitude!!!!

Full of gratitude like the ocean

Hollow and empty like the sky

This is what my very being is

Thank YOU, thank YOU..........

The search is over...................

I have reached home..

My home sweet home!!!

  1. All is here and now

    Here and now

    The past is gone and future unknown

    I longed to be this way

    To be free like air and yet still

    Letting the life unfold on its own

    And no more I exist the way I did

    Looking beyond is a sort of fun

    Once it starts it never ends,

    Love was hollow the way I did

    I seek for things in it

    blinded and obsessed,

    Long enough but it seems like a dream

    Untrue to the core

    Once I reached the home

    I need not explain

    For

    Words are hollow they can’t reach

    Where silence is the way
