Close your eyes………..it’s dark!!
Open your eyes…………it’s still dark :-l
This world is filled with miseries, misfortunes, and, people who are responsible for it. I had only heard about emotional turmoil, until recently when I experienced it myself…. What disappoints me the most is the sufferings of my beloved and that of socially, economically and physically challenged!!!
Look around yourself, observe things, happenings is there anything that can turn your head over heels and trigger your inner voice to say, “GOD IS GREAT; THERE WAS AND WILL NEVER BE SUCH A SITUATION WHERE YOU WILL HAVE TO CONFRONT SOMETHING BEYOND YOUR RESISTANCE!!!!!”.
My mind cries loudly responding to this ‘’’’NOPE!!! NOT AT ALL ‘’’’’
It seems I’m standing alone without any support to cross a warpath which is ahead of me surrounded with fire from all sides…. L I’m helpless, disabled, thinking about the fact that though I know the nitty gritty I’m not able to support any cause, relentlessly want to do something but all in vain without any assistance.
My heart summoned my mind which was battling with its contradicting arguments… for a second my mind went blank synonymous to the land after being struck by any natural calamity. Suddenly there was this ray of light that could be seen from everywhere and… this ear soothing voice that in a gentle tone called upon me and said, “DEAR ONE!!IT WAS ME WHO CLOSED YOUR EYES WHEN YOU TRIED OPENING IT, SUCH THAT YOU DON’T SEE ATTROCITIES OF HUMAN AGAINST HUMAN BECAUSE YOU ARE MY CHILD AND I DON’T WANT YOU TO GET TENSED ABOUT THESE THINGSJJ”.
My immature mind which was dumbstruck at the sudden intervention started firing questions as if was some open season (this was bound since I was out of sorts). The conversation begins like this:
***
MIND: That super natural being created heart and filled it with love, such that only love sustains in the universe, and that people exhibits this love explicitly. Why is it that this love is over powered by hatred and anger. Why people turn cruel and just slaughter the neck of forgiveness and compassion. And moreover those who show love are termed as helpless and weak????
VOICE: Sweet heart, you have all the answers within since it is covered with the veil of ego, anger and desires I shall explain you everything. My child when you are in you in your moon walk I walk beside you and when difficulties dawn upon you I carry you on my shoulder… Oh loved one!! god is within everybody… Love is everywhere there is no null point in universe there is no void…. And as you said that the people who love are weak... tell me one thing is your mom weak…a priceless soul made up of love… a being who surpasses the entire shortcoming just to see you happy…???
MIND: (Not even feeling ashamed for have raised such a question it was inquisitively asking dumb questions in series) Whaat??? God is in everybody huh???
VOICE: Yes!! What is it that you pray during your difficult times???
MIND: (Confused at being counter asked) It depends upon the situation!!!
VOICE: Okay J and what about the person who suffice your needs then??
MIND: (Completely baffled) Can you explain your point briefly…..
VOICE: Child listen and understand okay……. when a person desperately needs a support from nowhere gets a call from his/her mom who enquires about his/her well being making that person ecstatic. That mother is none other than god… when a young boy needs money to start his business the father who provides financial assistance is god… when a gal gets lost and isn’t able to trace her way back, the stranger who helps her is none other than god…. In such situations the needs are fulfilled by those people who have got no issues regarding whatever happens to the former… why should they even be bothered…. “THESE HELPING SOULS ARE GOD”…… These Odd bodkins are filled with love, compassion and when their beloved are upset, they are put to task. Why talk about others will you enjoy with your friends if your sibling is sad in spite of the fact that you people fight like cats and dogs??? Will you not voluntarily take initiative to resolve his/her issue…. You will, right… then you also become that godly soul since you offer your shoulder to your brother/sister to place their head are cry their heart out!!! The moment you understand it your queries will be answered…….
***
This gentle voice had done the work of what a slight breeze does to leaves which rustle and sway in its direction. When observed intricately the love, happiness around me was visible without the fog of dullness and miseries…………. I got completely charged…Life Is beautiful and this universe is lovely…….. Let’s try and make this world a better place to live!!!!!!!!
For all those who are reading it don’t fail to recognize the odd bodkins who help you selflessly… and make sure you reciprocate the same!!!
Let peace prevail……………
