That I Am

And For no reason

I start skipping like a child.

And For no reason

I turn into a leaf

That is carried so high

I kiss the Sun’s mouth

And dissolve.

And For no reason

A thousand birds

Choose my head for a conference table,

Start passing their

Cups of wine

And their wild songbooks all around.

And

For every reason in existence

I begin to eternally,

To eternally laugh and love!

When I turn into a leaf

And start dancing,

I run to kiss our beautiful Friend

And I dissolve in the Truth

That I Am

Purpose of Music

Saturday is my day of music .

As such all days are days of music only .

This picture saw on facebook some years back which reminded me the purpose of music and that is oneness with everything.

Music is a wave length and as oneness of Sound and Silence increases …. so is the transformation from Time dimension to Timeless Dimension .

and this brings ability to converse with first humans……

then with animals…. , 

then with trees….. , 

then with nature…. 

and then with every atom……. 

and finally with cosmic divine ……

we may refer as OM, ALLAH, GOD or name of our choice ,

Listen and love this beautiful Timeless afternoon Music by Ashwini Bhide Deshpande – Raga Bhimpalasi

Love all.

Kabir, the mystic of Kashi (Varanasi) is well-known and loved for his wise rhymes (dohe) that have lived on for centuries.

The one who understands the power of love has achieved wisdom, and wisdom may not be measured by the books one reads.

Kabir’s poetry is exceptionally beautiful, deep, direct and candid. The teachings behind his words are conveyed quietly but impactfully, without losing their sweetness or freshness.

Over the ages, the followers of Kabir and the lovers of his enchanting poetry have memorized, pondered and performed his couplets to seek spiritual awakening. He shared his knowledge with all – regardless of the faith or caste of his listeners and followers.

Love All.

Poem of Divine

Life is gift of divine. 

Nature is the Poem of Divine.

Live a poem…. if heart is there.

Trace a poem… if mystery is there.

Embrace a poem….. if soul is there.

Enjoy a poem …. if music of all three is there.

Enjoying this music of divine in every walk of life is true Meditation.

Meditation is a science to live in present with open eyes.

Wonder what people do sitting in yoga posture with closed eyes?

If you have answer ….. post them. 

Will love to know.
