The Chronicles of Love - Valentine's Day!

The Chronicles of Love

“Work without love is deplorable;

Work with love is desirable;

Love without work is divine...”

                Our world is tied down with love. Its perimeter (of course, sphere structures can have perimeters) is the magnitude of love every soul in the world sprouts on one another. Sharply, one could say, the world as of now survives, just because a part of mankind still lives on love – many unknowingly – and only that eternal feel of the soul keeps this planet still alive. Exploring that tiniest part out of the million other features that runs the lives of people is what excites, illuminates, dismantles, directs, dilutes and many times restructures people, processes and performance.

                Nobody could ever say that one is not ever loved. From the moment one breathes or in-takes the first breath of oxygen out of this gaseous Earth into the lungs, love enters through the breath. Maybe that is the reason, it is often quoted, ‘love is in the air’ as it seems to be. The divine nature of selflessness and the eternal being of the ultimate force are the factors contributing to this unbelievable feeling called love. Indeed, ‘self is loveless-ness and love is selfless-ness’ is true in every spirit. Once you break the barriers of yourself, love dominates your ‘self’ and once you uphold the principles predicting that the barriers do exist, your ‘self’ dominates your love.

                From the day I remember that I as a person exist in the world or the day I received my senses in my earliest childhood, I felt that something other than people, place and knowledge surrounds everyone and that invisible ‘feature’ orders anything and everything that involves you. It took me so long to discover what the feeling is and how much that feeling could do and realized that the ‘invisible feature’ alone had made decisions for me more than me making for myself. Of course, the invisible feature in description is termed as Love. One predicts that the entirety of the soul is the feel of satisfaction and the need at the same time. Love is the one which provides stability to the soul and the purpose of life. When one takes in these two points to evaluate, it both ends in conjunction and contradiction, however the intersection is all but the soul’s desire to be happy.

                Love makes the self to explore its capabilities to search for its true match. This also gives the freedom to live life by one’s own terms and decide for ourselves the need to attain rebirth or die haplessly filled with regret. This feeling of love is crazy, intelligent, childish, matured, argumentative and assertive – all at the same time – believe it’s true! And one can never say which of the feelings could dominate over another in that particular moment. This is that feeling of uncertainty which excites delights and rejuvenates the soul to keep exploring the horizons of love. One feels the pain in happiness and one smile when pains roll over. The effects and consequences are not meaningful and that always creates a sense of illusion that the real hollowness is present with filled spaces. And the craziness continues to yet another level that whenever one comes with the loved one together, the heart switches on and the mind goes blank. There is no fear in letting this happen and when it happens only true things come out of it. When the true things come out, one will find the real happiness and satisfaction. It is not in the matter of how much one earns, how much one parties, how much fame and popularity one attains and how much dollars you throw for your everyday’s living. Most of the times, silence with your eyes gives you the greatest happiness. This silence takes years to switch on and if it is on, it switches on the best in you – the real best!  

                There have been rare moments of deadly silence within us when our hearts operate over our minds. And those are the moments in life which decide how and where and when and why, you live your life for the longest term. Whatever your minds decide, it is for that present moment and it vanishes over time and whatever hearts decide, those are the ones which define the entirety of life. Just because of this, the greatest people in history of this glorious world have always instructed our hearts to make decision and keep our minds quiet during the decision time. Decisions by the mind are calculative while decisions by the heart are real, satisfying, stable and true-to-you. The difference between living with love and defying with purpose is choosing to live by the decisions which makes you or which pushes you. Explore the difference and there is life!

                An awesome feel surrounded me one day. I was hapless and soulless every moment, when the divine within me shouts that the moment has come. Fortunately, I suddenly blinked my eyes to see in front of me, the twilight is brightening on her face. It is that one glorious moment in life years ago which transformed me to who I am now. I really meant what I said that I saw my twilight in the first moment I saw her. This is just because, I completely died myself to see my twilight and in the very next moment, I took her in to rebirth as the person I’m today! The feeling of life is feeling the soul blossoming. Even now, this moment when I’m writing this piece of truth, I sense the feel of the first look I had on ever, as though it happened just early this evening – the truth however is that it happened years ago. I believe even this feeling is true as time and tide doesn't exist in the world of love. The only things present in this greatest world mankind have ever known are ‘pain’ and ‘gain’ – anything surrounding love can be invariably categorized into these two giants of love.

                In this moment of truth, one must also admit that not everyone has found this world revolving. Else, they knew the world exists but are tied down by ‘foolish’ extravagant forces not to take the ‘space vehicle’ of heart to jump into this. All I could say is that these forces are stupid in every sense and YOLO (You Only Live Once) signifies that everything whatever you could do, just do it! Just do it! The best thing one could do being born is to live a life filled with no regrets at all. If you believe in something and if you live by the decisions your heart systems provide, just do it no matter what the consequences could be. Because YOLO is true. If you want to say or share anything about everything, just talk straight from your heart. Because YOLO do exists.

                The greatest thing the devil ever did is making everyone believe it didn't exist. Sometimes the devil of love does that. Whenever one sees a natural calamity or a brutal man-made attack, we believe the devil has returned. When one analyzes this situation that if world is said to be filled with love and the world is a beautiful place just because love exists, how do people destroy love then? The answer lies within the question itself. Love exists and these are the extravagant forces to test the people about their in life. This has been proved numerous times in the history and that proof is the reason why mankind is alive even today! The devil blinked its eyes even in the Stone Age of man when they fought for food and place. The quest for power, fame, women and land has deceived mankind to blink the devil’s eyes innumerable times since that time starting from the nailing the Christ in the 0 B.C. (Zero century B.C.) to the height of slavery in middle-east and Africa to the days of American independence to Russian renaissance in communism to the two ‘cruel’ world wars to India’s struggle to independence to as present as September 11, 2001 or November 26, 2008. But the world has come over all of these to see the light of today’s dawn quite successfully. However the feel of the devil blinking anytime surrounds people and that is fear of life to many. I again wish to pronounce that this uncertainty is what makes the feeling all the more special.

                I suppose that the people’s smiles are ignited by love. When I wrote ‘A smile at billion hearts’ I must admit that my heart dominated over my mind and that is why it made the writing special for me. People! My fellowmen! My contemporaries! Please let your heart do the talking of your decisions in life. Please let your love reaches out to people who crave and care for real affection. Please imbibe the art of loving and being loved in you. Please lift your soul to a space that can live without oxygen and not without love. If this happens, the devil this world sees now and often could never return from its dark. It is not just quality education, sophisticated infrastructure, healthy living, nutritious food, disease-less people and ever-smiling mankind which makes this world a beautiful world, it is also the world filled with love and laughter which makes the world even more desirable. Let wars shut down, hatred sleep, vengeance locked and the cruel changes the user but let alone the operating system of love keeps running without any malfunction. There is no backup or recovery tool if the devil returns. Let us love to put this world upfront to goodness and godliness.

                The love of the mother is to see her children hale and healthy. The love of the loving ones is to see their loved ones loving them infinitely. The love of the children is to watch their worlds in difference filled with innocence all the time. The love of the soldier is to live in peace. The love of the King is to restore harmony in self and self-surrounding people. The love of GOD is to make this world stable, honest and far better place so much to an extent that the people are born to live and die and live and die and live and die end number of times to accumulate endless love. The love of the creator is to find his or her creations to reach as many as it could and influence the lives to raise to at least some more goodness than existing. This creation if it falls in the category of making people’s lives change for the better, I am sure the love inside me will reach the eternal glory!

Love makes life beautiful!

Love is what life is all about!

Love to see your skies breaking to heaven!

Love is you and me!

Love!

THE WORLD AND ME: WHAT DO I EXPECT AND SEEK-TO-BE?

              In pursuit of something irrelevant or falling in an unknown space, this world keeps moving every day. There is a wide speculation that ‘everyone’s goals are chased’, ‘dreams are made real’ and so on but I believe that the real essence of life is missed on the way. Have you ever wondered why this world is highly partial to its people? Why someone has the power and wealth to have fun while the other literally starves every day? Why someone has the liberty to grow a cash tree while the unluckiest of the lot willing to house under a branch-less tree?

            Ironically, the answer lies within the question itself. It is just the belief and attributes of an individual that defines who one really is and how one perceives the world. Many are under-privileged because of the place, race, and time and to the parents they are born. Incidentally, no one can control their birth. But their life till the end is by far in their own hands. This could well be proved by the fact that this world has seen great people with magical lifestyle undoubtedly from every corner of the world. The one quality of all is being the HOPE.

            Hope, as said, is the most special virtue in human life. It is like a ‘pointing finger’ painted on a door that is closed to you. It points, directing to you to another door further on that will open to your big opportunity. Keep looking for that other door – that open door where success, great lifestyle and the so called ‘liberties’ could be achieved.

            However, many hands do not possess this ‘pointing finger’. Those whole lots of people have created a space for themselves and are just living and passing everyday just to die soon. This action all revolves in your minds and without ‘hope’, life is a barren land with maize seeds thrown in. Hope to live and never hope to die. This is not human at all.

            Every man in this world is striving to reach a space which is abstract, but the fact is through that process, one forgets to live. Everyone awaits the future, believing it exists if alive and restrict oneself to believe there is happiness even now.

            A salesman was having trouble making sales, always afraid and forever whistling in the dark. An older and successful salesman gave him a 3-sentence prayer. Reprising that the results were miraculous and his percentage of sales rose steadily.

            A group of words or three sentences changed many a lives. The prayer is:

‘I believe that I am always divinely guided..!

I believe that I will be led always to take the right turn of the road.

I believe that GOD will always make a way where there is no way’.

Quality of Self:

            In the last 21 years, I happened to travel a lot, maybe more than others would have done in my same age-group. Family pilgrimages, school tours, college industrial tours, trekking and for participating in numerous symposiums, I kept travelling and found endless patterns of people around the country. The difference between people from various landscapes arouses mainly from their cultural habits. Everyone makes own lifestyle and keeps surviving every day, really not knowing what they are up to. Every life is fulfilled only when the time comes to make you feel that you are satisfied. In the world, not the money nor the power that determines fulfilment but the art of getting contended is what gives the fullest satisfaction. In the history of human life, if one clearly observes, ‘he who is satisfied with his desires and principles has become great in life’.

            An important question for anyone is: ‘what am I doing to my own self? Am i making myself big to equate with the power potential in me? Or am I accepting smallness as I am capable of?’ The answers and confidence by which your answer yourself defines the gem who you are. To think yourself smaller than you actually are a violation of your real nature and disaster is anytime near.

            

           Through the years, every thought, every emotion, every experience contributes to the quality of self. We are coincidence building up or breaking down the self. The art of leading gives you the wisdom to lead others. As the world knows, success is 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent motivation.

              

            No matter how old or how settled one becomes, self is in the making continuously. Everything contributes to its greatness or littleness, its stagnation or growth, its shadow contention or real attribute. The world perceives to chase their dreams in an empty arena where the entire hope rests within. I perceive that this world is still better when the inner-self actuates and people go in by answering the questions their self asks. Just imagine if everyone speaks to their self and do great things benefitting all, how the world would be?!

 

Hope to see things come true:

            Hope is wishing for a thing to come true; faith is the believing that it will come true. The world is real; its people are real; their actions and achievements are real but everyone keeps trending the unknown path of contention. Many conceive to forget that the art of satisfaction lays in every action. Chasing dreams of fantasy is absurd while chasing dreams of contention is the only absolute. Every day, every moment do actions by which you get satisfaction, similarly even now when I write this blog, I feel so. This unbelievable feeling called ‘HOPE’ is wanting something so eagerly that, in spite of all evidences that you are not going to get it, you go right on expecting it.

            However, the actions on the way to tread the undefined path are satisfactory. There is nothing wrong in doing so, as even if one fails to reach the destination, one still lives in the road that is the real outcome of fulfilment. And the remarkable thing is that this very act of hoping or belief produces strength of its own. No matter how long it takes, ‘persist’. No matter how discouraged you get, ’persevere’. No matter how much you want to quit, ‘hang in there’.

            Deep within an individual is a vast reservoir of untapped power waiting to be used. The big heart of faith can push those crushing circumstances of life wide apart. The positive mind is not limited, while it carries the power to penetrate, solving the problems in life effectively. People who have big hearts and big minds need not be afraid of what may come, for those hearts and minds determine the quality of the future.

            Expectations many a times lead to disappointments. Even then, I often never fail to expect. It gives courage to keep your head held high, seek right things and march forward in life leaving behind countless defeats, embarrassments and struggles. I expect this world to be full of hearts and minds, filled with contended people who feel satisfaction in every action they do. I expect one answers oneself before doing every action. I expect that the sun never sets on anyone who deserves to live rather defy dying. Eventually, I believe with the fullest hope, this world will be a far better place to live in, even better than the ages of its birth millenniums ago.
