Where the mind is without fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up
into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action-
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Lonely Traveler

Am i walking a lonely path?
Nobody is seen around?
Nobody seems to walk with me
Its a risky path it seems...
As if nobody has walked this path for long..
But still, why did i choose this path?
Is it me who took this path?
Or somebody has guided me this way?
Anyway i am taking 2 more souls with me..
I don't see the destination...
But just giving myself to God..
Trusting him completely..
Even if i don't know the next step..
With tears, fear, but with belief ...
I walk the way u take me Lord..
Because u haven't given me a choice..

Love has asserted supremacy in my life.

Just Got this interesting piece as if read from my heart...

Love has asserted supremacy in my life.

I sit here helpless, I cannot hide. Oh, the pain of my open Heart in this world of Shadows. Shadows we surrender to, holding onto for security, thinking they are reality.

I was one of the Shadow’s friends, thinking I knew who I was, that I was in control. Oh, my arrogance, until this moment.

“Open your Heart”, my inner voice says clearly. “Confront your fear of falling, out of control, into an unknown land, uncharted.” But the pain, the pain is unbearable; I scream in terror, please no more, I cannot take any more.

Have mercy on me.

“There is no alternative”, the Voice says compassionately. The Voice of the Heart of Love now sings to me, serenading my soul.

“Love isn’t sentimental, but is the glue that connects, and keeps the entire Universe whole.” From the tiniest sub-atomic particles, to the flowering of plants, to the creation of life, planets, stars, galaxies, Love is there.

“Love is not something you give when it is to your advantage, or only when it will be returned. Love simply is. Now, let your ego occupy its true place as an instrument of my Heart; give yourself to others.”

I now experience a calm and serenity that I have never known before this moment. The Voice of the Heart of Love nurtures me, saying, “Can you feel my living presence inside and all around you? Like a slow moving stream through a thick forest on a warm day, moving continuously, always there.”

This is the experience of Life. Everything is alive and in motion; the trees, animals, birds, fish, and even the rocks, mountains, the wind, the stars, the whole Universe is alive.

“You are part of this Life. You are this Life. The creation of the Universe did not just happen in the past, but is going on in you and in the world every moment.”

The Voice of the Heart of Love says: “The end of the world is near. The hurt you feel is part of the plan. The pain of birth, the pain of awakening from the Shadow world. This is only the beginning for you. For you to be my servant, you must face Death.” I respond, confidently, saying that I am not afraid of Death. The Voice says, with mild amusement, “Is that So?”

“Listen to me now.” All of a sudden, my petty fears, insecurities, hurt, and all that I have grown to identify with in this world become visible. An explosion rocks inside of me. Like a sea of red blood, so cloudy, I see the truth of myself.

The Shadows still have a hold on me. “Let go my child, release all your doubts into me.” Once again, the childish vision of myself is demolished.

The Voice of the Heart of Love continues, saying, “This is the message of your life. Remember, the Shadow world does not want to hear these words.”

“This is how you will confront Death. Give yourself and be available as an empty vessel for my Love. Love everyone, especially those that are different than you. When you can still love those that hate you, then you will be doing my work.”

“Now is the time. Start right where you are, with yourself. Then, be a witness for Love, a source of uplift and healing around you, and reflect this into the community and world. Connect with others who are doing the same. As these circles gather, let the entire cosmos ring with the vibration of this Spiritual Power.”

I sat up refreshed, full of life, and with so much peace.

Music, Dance...

Music, dance, painting or any creative forms comes from one's heart...All these creative
forms in its purest, are mediums of realization of who we are...Dance can just be movement
of body, confining to some rules with a song in background...That is just the mechanics of dancing.Rules are just some generalization...Following all the rules, will not make a good dance...Rules are for the beginners...A mature dancer will not remember any rules...she will just dance ...It will flow out of her, because true dancing comes from the depths of heart, when each and every atom in him is dancing in absolute sync...If a dancer is truely dancing, the person will be in bliss...Her mind and body will be in tune...The objective of the dancing will not be to please the audience and get applaud from them or to get some awards,or for any selfish purpose...But will be an offering to the God inside...If the spectator can also be in tune with the dance, it will take him also to the same bliss..He will also be taken to the core of his being...Thats why, music,dance or any forms of creativity in its purest form can be so enjoyble, so blissful....
