Mere Papa

-
Mere papa, jinhe duniya mei log bahut se naamo se jaante hai
koi pyaar se Rammu kehta hai to koi Atal ji to koi Gupta ji
hamare liye woh sirf papa heen nahi,
ek prerna hai, himmat hai, aur garv hai
aaiye aap sabka unse parichay karaate hai
bachpan mei ek shikayat thi
papa kabhi hamare kaam nahi karte, hamesha bolte jao aur khud karo
tab bada bura lagta tha, kyunki baaki sabke papa bolte the, beta hum kar dete hai
bahut baad mei samajh aaya woh hume zindagi ko khud se jeena seekha rahe the
papa, jinhone kabhi hamare liye koi faisla nahi liya,
hamesha ek heen baat boli, jo bhi karo sahi ya galat
hamesha hume bata k karna, aur tum hamesha hame apne saath paoge
mere papa, jinhe bina hame sulaye, bina amma ko sulaye neend nahi aati thi
jo hame kabhi raat bhar kisi dost ke ghar nahi jaane dete the
tab lagta tha ki kitne kathor hai woh
aaj samajh aaya ki woh hame rishte nibhaana seekha rahe the
mere papa, jo shayad kabhi kisi ke yaha bina bulaye nahi gaye
par jab bhi kisi ko zarurat padi, to sabse aage unko paya
fir koi chahe saath khada ho ya nahi
unhone kabhi sahi aur sach ko chodha nahi
fakr hota hai hume unpe, jab koi kehta hai
ki Gupta ji kisi ki sunte nahi
sach to yeh hai ki, Gupta ji sunte sabki hai
vichar sabki salaah pe karte hai
lekin faisla hamesha us par chodte hai
jiski zindagi pe sabse zyada asar hota hai
mere papa, jinhe bahut log jaaante hue bhi nahi jaante
ek baat un sabse kehni hai
Gupta ji bhale heen har kaam aakhiri samay pe karte hai
par jab woh karte hai to usse behtar kabhi kuch ho sakta nahi
aaj bhi yaad hai mujhe, jab school mei chart banana hota tha,
mere papa, raat bhar bhi jaagte hue apni sundar si likhai se awards dilwate  the
kabhi aisa na hua aaj tak, ki kuch bola ho aur unhone kiya na ho
aur jab nahi bola tab bhi na jaane kaise unhe pata chal jata tha ki kya chahiye hume
mere papa, jinke kisse aur kahaniya kabhi khatam nahi hote
aaj zindagi k naye padav pe hai
aaj tak unhone na sirf naam kamaya, balki jo izzat kamai hai
usse hamari pehchaan hai
jab bhi hame zarurat padi,
tab aapne hame doobara chalna seekhaya
aapke diye hue nuskhe aur salaah
hame hamesha yaad rahenge

 mere papa, ek aisi shaksiyat hai
jinhe aaj tak koi jaan na paya
yeh sochna waha se shuru karte hai
jaha duniya ki soch khatam hoti hai
isiliye mere papa, jab bhi kuch karte hai
woh sirf poora nahi, balki sarvshreth bhi hota hai

You Are More Than the Mind

 'The real "you" is different from those thoughts. You are reacting to every thought that visits your mind. By reacting to all of them, you are paying attention to your thoughts and feeding them, allowing them to exist. That is how a troubled mind creates a chaotic world.' This is an excerpt from a book am reading. A book which happens to be a fiction, and i didn't expect to read such a deep line in that one. It made me think, ponder upon even after days of reading the same. This is something that i learnt during Vipassana. My understanding of this is "Things keep on happening around you, whether they are good, bad or negative positive for you, completely depends on how your brain processes it, which is again dependent on what have you fed it in terms of thoughts and inputs (like reading, watching, etc).  They say, we create a version of reality in our mind, which is a product of actual happenings, our thoughts/ideas and our reactions to them. What you pay at...

An year of Metamorphosis!

-
Since the last post, life has been overhauled. It's been six months, and life is completely different now. A lot has happened in these six months, and I cannot relate to myself anymore. The person I was before April and the person I am now are two completely different human beings! Definitely, I have become more boring than earlier.  This year has been the year of firsts! Many things happened for the first time with me, and I did many new things.  Getting fired Vipassana Living in negative temperatures with basic means  Not planning anything  Noble silence for 9 days (Trust me the best time of life) Living without a phone, internet, and family  Lived at an altitude of 3500+ mtrs from sea level  Rushed mom to emergency for cardiac care Went on a trip with my Angel Welcomed a baby girl in the family. The first daughter after me! When she was born, no one in the family knew what rituals we had for a baby girl, as the ones who did all of them when I was born ar...

Tranquility with Tinyminy!

It has been more than 5 months that i wrote something, and that's true for not only this place but in general, I haven't written anything. Probably the longest i have stayed without writing. And am still sane. Wow, something to be really proud of. Guess the credit goes to two things: Another 10 day Vipassana course  My 9 month old niece. She is a saviour, as these days, most of my time goes to her playful antics.  I did my second "10 day course of Vipassana". While i was looking forward to the peace that noble silence brings, to my surprise, i was asked to do " Seva " when i joined. The seniors or the more experienced people in this field told me, that it is great that i was able to do Seva in my second course itself, however, somewhere i felt like a scapegoat. Nevertheless, the experience was amazing in more than one way!  Though i missed the complete " Noble Silence ", (when you do Seva , participants can reach out to you, for any kind of inconve...
