Hazaron Khwahishein Aisi...

Hazaron khwahisein aisi...ke har khwahish pe dum nikale...bahut nikale mere armaan, lekin phir bhi kam nikale....


To the many fold meanings this deep couplet by Ghalib , though the meaning seems very obvious, how easily we fail to forget and ignore such a truth of life?
Thousands of my real big desires have been fulfilled, yet i am not satisfied...still i think i don't have enough!!!
Is it our ignorance?? is it our greed?? I don't think it is any of these.
"Desire", which we have always learnt (in the bookish snese) to be pulling us back from eternal appiness."Desire" which we have thought to be the root cause of all our problems."Desire" which we think is never ending. "Desire" might actually be our way to ultimate freedom!!!
To express in a nutshell, our "Desires" are only external manifestations of our inner self to be free.But, then...there is the "catch". Every desire we have, is just an attempt to touch the higher, to feel the greater freedom...its is just an "attempt". it is just like a shot taken in the dark.In most cases it does not hit the target.In most cases, we are just left with the pain and disappointment of missing the target. And in this state of pain, we start firing more and more shots, again in the dark..Which lead to more disappointments. And that is how we get into the vicious trap of never ending desires.Also, our spirit inside keeps a log of all the disappointments, pain, anger, resentment which it gets through the "missing taget", not to forget the thrill,fun and different experiences(both good and bad) which the spirit gains during the desire fulfillments.This log is what becomes our "karma" which we carry though lifetimes.
So it all boils down to something like a graph problem in one sense.Our spirit wants to find its route to the destination in the shortest way.So instead of trying brute force for all the paths, ideally it should give time to itself, analyze the maze in which it is stuck, and patiently work its way throug it with guidance. This whole method is nothing but the "Sadhana" we ought to do.And the guidance is the 'Divine Grace'...

The Journey.....as it goes..

Disappointment....

This is the second step in the journey. Not achieving what we expect to achieve or in most of the cases people not giving us back what we expect them to..now the question is why is disappointment is a crucial step ? Well...because Failure and disappointment might act as very important tools to kill our greater enemy and, ironically, the reason of our existence too...our ego.

The Journey

Failures...Failure...is the first step of a journey!!! weird??? Well...when the journey is cross galaxies and universes..then every step is going to be like never before. OOh!!! am i talking about space craft journeys and alien worlds??? i think not. This is the journey from being a weak human to realizing being a super human!!So...such a journey many a times, begins with Failures. Failure to be a human. ironic; isn't it?? i don't know how many of people reading this blog have experienced the failure to be human, do leave a comment if some one has.Failure to be a perfect human;which we inherently want to become might make the first step to becoming a "Non-Human"
