Freedom from Mind

by

I 
Have 
Learned 
So much from God 
That I can no longer 
Call 
Myself 

A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim, 
a Buddhist, a Jew. 

The Truth has shared so much of Itself 
With me 

That I can no longer call myself 
A man, a woman, an angel, 
Or even a pure 
Soul. 

Love has 
Befriended Hafiz so completely
It has turned to ash 
And freed 
Me 

Of every concept and image 
my mind has ever known.

Hafiz
From: ‘The Gift’ 
Translated by Daniel Ladinsky

Good to life ?

by

Life is a fair energy and Love is value energy and when we love life than fair energy become freedom and wholeness in Life.

My movie time is 60 minutes everyday for 3 days for a one good actor and for last two days it has been Legendary Actor Morgan Freeman ,

so in a year time I watch good 100 movies of 100 best Actors and Actresses of Western Cinema.

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen – that stillness becomes a radiance. Morgan Freeman

We humans are more concerned with having than with being. Morgan Freeman

I can say that life is good to me. Has been and is good. So I think my task is to be good to it.

How do you be good to life?

You live it.

Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman performance as the chauffeur Hoke Colburn to Miss Daisy (Jessica Tandy) that really put him on the movie star map. 

it’s a really well made film with wonderful acting performances from Jessica Tandy, who won an Oscar for her role as Miss Daisy

Driving Miss Daisy won four Oscars and was nominated for another five, including Best Actor for Freeman, though he didn’t win.

A fine dialogue from the movie

“- Daisy Werthan: You know your letters don’t you?
– Hoke Colburn: Oh yeah, yeah I know my abc’s pretty good, just can’t read. 
– Daisy Werthan: Stop saying that you’re making me mad! If you know your letters you can read. You just don’t know you can read. 

The last scene is truly heart touching , if you have not watched than do watch it , it is a value for time Movie,

Hear, Ear , and Wear

by

Every Life has a story to Tell , Teach , and Transform but all depends on how you Hear, Ear , and Wear.

Lao Tzu ( 570 – 490 BC ) was sitting under a tree when an old leaf fell, just wavering; and he watched the leaf falling down from the tree, and he became enlightened.

Highway of Thoughts

by

Today noticed some Traffic sign boards on Highway during morning walk , a thought came what is the speed limit of our thinking and imagination ?

Are we HOT ( Highway of thoughts ) ?

Mind is a Highway of thoughts generated by activation of our senses and nonsenses and most of the time it may witness Traffic Jam of various thoughts of different colors and our inclination on any thought get it parked in our Brain’s memory temporary or permanent slot .

A new study has suggested that an average person has 6,200 thoughts per day. Thousands of thoughts cross our mind through the day. Many people even complain that they can’t sleep immediately after going to bed as their brain does not stop thinking.

Mind is a bridge between I and Eye or Self and Senses.

Brain is a Super computer of immense capacity and users friendly .

But most of the people complain about Monkey Mind and Donkey Brain . Why ?

Enjoy the story before we Stop at Zebra Crossing for us to cross the river of thoughts with a Cool mind and Silent Brain .

Story: One day while Zen monk Tanzan and a young monk were traveling, they came to a river with a strong current. As they were preparing to cross the river, they saw a young lady in distress also attempting to cross.

Tanzan offered, “Here, let me carry you across,” and placed her down gently on the other side. 

The lady said, “Thank you very much. Goodbye.” The two continued on their journey for more than half a day. 

Finally, the younger monk could not contain himself any longer, and blurted out, “I thought we monks were supposed to avoid women. Why did you just do that?”

“Oh, you mean the woman way back there? I put her down long ago. Are you still carrying her?” 

Love this Sign of Zebra Crossing where a Pedestrian crossing the Stripes of Black and White with Cool mind and Silent Brain .

Black and White are synonymous with Detachment and Attachment , Dislike and like , Negative and Positive , Past and Future , Time and Timeless and Body and Soul …… and many more faces of Duality.

Brain get activated by stepping on Black as well as on White , so if you say Yes to a thought or say No to any thought but it get parked into the memory space of brain so how to have silent Zone in our Cluttering Mind and Overloaded Brain .

Pedestrian is synonymous of Referee who is neither attached nor detached with any Players of Duality who walks in Silence Zone of Now .

Referee is one who is alert , aware in present moment with Cool mind and Silent Brain

Enlightenment 360 degree is to be a Referee in Game of Time and Timelessness witnessing it with Neutral Mind.

Love All.

Hundreds of prayers

by

Makkay gayaan, gal mukdee naheen
Pawain sow sow jummay parrh aaeey

Going to Makkah is not the ultimate
Even if hundreds of prayers are offered
–

Ganga gayaan, gal mukdee naheen
Pawain sow sow gotay khaeeay

Going to River Ganges is not the ultimate
Even if hundreds of cleansing are done
–

Gaya gayaan gal mukdee naheen
Pawain sow sow pand parrhaeeay

Going to Gaya is not the ultimate
Even if hundreds of worships are done
–

Bulleh Shah gal taeeyon mukdee
Jadon May nu dillon gawaeeay

Bulleh Shah the ultimate is
When the “I” is removed from the heart!

Bulleya Ki Jaana Main Kaun! – Happy Ho

Syed Abdullah Shah Gilani, known as Bulleh Shah, was a Punjabi philosopher during 17th-century  and He was a Sufi mystic poet and is universally regarded as “The father of Punjabi enlightenment”

Statement of Understanding

I am Old in Time but Not old in Timelessness is not a Statement of Spirituality but a Statement of Understanding the Divine Nature of Cosmic Consciousness.
