THE WHITE FLOWER

The road to 'The Journey'.. starts from the dark..
piercing which you reach to the start..
and then you search for the ride to take you through the dour..
to revive and make you fly..like an ambitiously souring bird..
THE WHITE FLOWER will guide you to the BRIGHT NEW WORLD..

He was living in this world unknown to him.. For 21 years he had survived..looking for the 'Fountain of the Light'..As far as he could remember, he was dropped on this planet from a far far world..somewhere belonging to the WHITE STARS..and since then he had been trying to find the way back..For 21 years..he kept solving clues and riddles..he fought dragons..he crossed the oceans and climbed the peaks..he even killed the venomous beasts.. and then he found a map..a map to the 'Fountain of the Light'..the way to the land of the WHITE STARS..

The Map was possessed by the gigantically ugly 12-legged spider..He sliced all of its legs and pierced its eyes to subdue it.. and then the spider revealed..

"Through the flow of the fountain..You will have to pass..
In search of a place guarded by the saint souls..
You will have to prove yourself worthy of your goals..
To reach to the WHITE STAR..you will have to follow the white marks..
And You will need THE WHITE FLOWER..to protect you from the carks..
Possessing it you will reach to the end..sure and safe..
THE WHITE FLOWER will guide you..and will show you the way.."

And then with the map given by the spider..he went on..in search of THE WHITE FLOWER..However he was skeptical regarding the credibility of the spider.."how can a mere flower show me the way to my city of THE BRIGHT STARS??"..But in the absence of any other options, he had no choice..

The way, as per the map..was not long..as he already had traveled a lot..and luckily he had been on the right track..always!.."Just a few more hurdles and I will get it...."..

He crossed abysmal valleys..he walked on the thorns..he faced the dark clouds and thunderstorms..but he kept moving...

As he progressed nearer to THE FOUNTAIN..there were changes everywhere..the surroundings started turning green..the thorns vanished and started converting into purple white flowers..Black clouds paved the way for the white clouds..Now he could also see the white angels guarding the place..He asked one of them.."I am in search of the WHITE FLOWER"..The guard gazed at him..and then pointing towards a fountain said..

"We knew you will come..for it was destined
IT is waiting for you..You are right on time..
21 years IT waited for your touch ..you stranger..
Take IT with you..IT will protect you from all the dangers..
As much you need IT..IT needs you and your touch..
To shine, for you, and guide you..to serve its very purpose..!"


So the fountain was just in front of him..He went through without wasting a single minute..and on a floating WHITE JAR..he saw the hanging WHITE FLOWER..As he stretched his hands to pluck it..a voice emerged out of the emptiness...

"The moment you will pluck..
You will get all the luck..
Everything that you suffered you will forget..
Pain and Sorrows will vanish..and your life will be reset..
You will reach your land of THE BRIGHT STARS and will always be there..
Till the WHITE FLOWER you will hold will remain in your care.."

and then in reply he said..

"21 years I searched for IT.. untiringly un-ceased..
I have suffered alot..it's time for them to be repealed..
I want to see the world of light..I can't brook this darkness in any way..
I will protect THE WHITE FLOWER..I will stand for it..come what may..!"

With these words he plucked the flower and held it in his hands..Everything glistened with the fluorescence..THE WHITE FLOWER turned brighter with his touch on it..and he was surrounded and cluttered by the small white angels everywhere..then a long white stair-way to the sky unfolded in front of THEM.."This will take both of you to your destination.."..the angels murmured.. He held THE FLOWER diligently and with love..He rose his first step towards the stairs and then he paused for a moment..He kissed THE WHITE FLOWER and said..

"With you and for you..
I will make this journey as beautiful as you..
Your purity and sanity is nothing but god's creation..
I will always be with you..Let's head for OUR DESTINATION.."

With these words and with that kiss..he ran on that stair-way..and never looked back..

And When The End Is Imminent..

Since the day I was small..I was told I could win the world..
Only if I try hard..only if I aimed to catch that soaring bird..
They said that IMPOSSIBLE..is nothing but a perilous place..
which stillborn souls fear to tread..and wanted others not to trace..

I was made to believe in HUMAN POWER..the ingenuity of the thoughtful brain..
That how it works indefatigably.. effectively..unrestrained..
That how it powers the THOUGHTS..to derive solutions if used with sapience..
That how it could be used to control..everything and everyone with its influence..

I read about people climbing Himalayas..defying gravity and landing on the moon..
I even saw them flying planes...and I wanted to be one of them soon..
And this way I was made to believe..that human body could achieve wonders untired..
That how it can elongate to reach heights..and obliterate forces if desired..

Today..I stand in front of this BEAST..I want to stop its way but Can I??
I want to live more... I want to at least give it a try..
It's approaching near..seething with anger..roaring with strident thunder..
I believe I can wither its rage..I can impel these soaring waves to surrender..

Because I have always believed ..that I surely can if I want..
That I must not capitulate..even if my knife is severely blunt..
My conscience fails to give up..I have so many undone dreams to behold..
Howsoever fierce and forceful it may be..I must remain undeterred..and bold..

But then when I look at these tides..they want to assimilate me with their might..
I have an unusually strange feeling of helplessness..a streak of fearsome fright..
I am thinking of a solution..but my mind has now disallowed thinking..
My body feels incapable to handle it..brooding with fear..it is shivering..

How could that be happening.. Will IT decimate me..my will..my soul..??
Even if I will stand unrestrained..to protect my dreams..to achieve my goals??
Where's the might of the HUMAN POWER..that moved mountains and conquered the space..
Can't it subvert a conglomeration of petty drops..rampaging at belligerent pace??

I think the answer is NO..I believe my time has come..
However skillful and inviolable I may be..I am merely a mortal human..
All my life I thought I was the strongest..but that is what I was told..
Now when I see my imminent future..my breath gets stronger..my pulse gets cold..

I could defy any thing but how could I plunge the creator of my being..?
That controlled my every minute..every breath..and all my thinking..
But if YOU dominated my heart..my mind..my body..and my soul..
Then why did YOU implanted those dreams..those ideas..and created those roles.??..
The question will linger forever..I believe the answer is something unknown..
For YOU created us to be born..play..and then die..for your RECREATION..forlorn..

DO YOU BELIEVE IN GOD???

I am always intrigued by the people who believe in god..!!..Well I may sound a bit indifferent but just give it a thought.. those who believe in god..they believe that god created this world and whatever they do is actually what god's wish is..!..
and this very thought befuddles me all the time...

Guys..if we say..that god created this world..or even controls this world..or we say that there is a superpower who always know where we are..what we are doing..in short ..he knows everything..!!..then don't you think that this very concept contravenes the very idea of our FREEDOM or FREE WILL..!!!???

So basically..when we say that god is the superpower..in absolute control of eternity..then it means that everything that we do is predetermined..!!.. This idea of things being predetermined if is true then do you think that there is any worth of doing anything on your own..??..Does the idea of FREEDOM to do things on your own..the idea of INNOVATION..makes any worthy sense..??!!!..Well..I don't think so..!

I have numerous examples of people who believe in god completely..who believe that everything that is around us is GOD'S CREATION.. In other words god is the SCRIPTWRITER of this world..Considering this statement to be true..whatever we do is actually PRECONCEIVED and PRE-WRITTEN....

So, if you did something extra normal today that made you feel proud of your own self..then hey..consider thinking again..coz there actually nothing that you are doing is new..whatever you are doing is actually pre-scripted..!!..

This very idea made me question the relevance of my being..that if I am writing this post right now..then it actually is pre-written somewhere in GOD'S script in the exact manner I am doing it right now..The way I think..the way I conceive ideas..everything..every emotion..is PRE-DETERMINED..how grotesque of an idea is this..I would rather not believe in god..!

THE ART OF WISHING!

CASE SCENARIO: 3 years back..month of May..blazing sun...in front of my college gate at DTC bus stop..

About 16:00 hrs (based on memory!!)
"Its been an hour now since I came here"..(I have this habit of talking to my own self..I do it on a regular basis in fact!!).."I am tired..I am not going by this bus..(now focus on this line..)GOD! PLEASE SEND AN AUTO..PLLLLEEEAAASSSSSSSSE!!"..

16:05 hrs (for sure!!)

"Oh!..THANK GOD.. finally an auto is coming.."..(it was the first auto that I saw in last 60 minutes at the end of the road..and then it came nearer and I got up..I waved my hand..and then....and then it went away without stopping..!!!!)

I looked up and said..
"Thank you god.. for SENDING an auto..after all this is what I wished for..!:-x.."

Had I wished..”God!..Please send a vacant auto that will stop infront of me when I will be waiving my hand..and will take me to my home safely..securely..timely...and obviously by meter..!!”..then probably the story would have been different..as a matter of fact, I am pretty sure regarding that..!!!

See, this is what I call fundamental art of wishing..and u know what..if you are proficient in this art then trust me..life will get so very easy for you..
PS: God listens to you..always..and if you dun believe in god..well then you can say..that there is someone like a WISH GRANTER..whatever you wish for..if he/she listens to that..it will be granted..and in the exact manner you would have wished..yes..in absolutely exact manner!!..

So, basically if you are running with high fever and have taken an off from your office..and you wish something like this..”God..please get me better..as soon as possible.”..then there is a very high probability that yes you will get better.. pretty soon infact..but then after 2 days..when you will return to ur job..u will find loads of pending work..you will wake up for nights to cover that up ..and ultimately out of tension + frustration + time lag, u will again have a feverish body!!!!.. but then you cant blame anybody u see..!! whatever u asked for you got that..now what happens after that has got nothing to do with god/Wish Granter okay!!..

At the start of the 4th year of my engineering, I realised I cannot do a job related to engineering!!:P..I wished just for 3 things ..a job which wont be technical..which would be interactive and which would pay me well..!!..After an year..I got my first job at Aakash Institute as Mathematics Faculty with a salary pack of 6 lac an annum!!!..It wasn't technical + it was interactive + it was a well paying job indeed!!..well..i joined it..and after 3 months i resigned..!!!!! Reason: I realised i can do alot more than just teaching..i m not deprecating the teaching job..i respect it alot..!! what I mean to say is that by being there I would have restricted myself to teaching only. I hate such restrictions ..When I know I can fly then why the hell should I be satisfied by the idea of hopping..!!!..

Anyway.. dat is not the point..the point is that if I would have wished lyk.."give me a job which will satisfy me completely..U KNOW WHAT I WANT..READ MY MIND.. HEART too..!!"..then probably i would have been in a better state..!!!..But then, I never knew wat to wish for..I was ignorant of the art of wishing..But now I know that!!..So, now..when I am standing at a bus stop..then instead of wishing for anything..I just say.."*To whomsoever it may concern!!*..Hey..You Know what I want..just give me that..!!!"..I think it is working!!..Well I manage to get autos on time now!!!:)

Hmm..now the movie time..Movie for the day is "INTERSTATE 60"..a fantasy/adventure/road trip kinda stuff where a guy is in search for the answer to his questions with life..and he meets a WISH GRANTER!! Interesting right..!!!..Yeah..it is..go for it..and from now on...keep wishing..intelligently..or..you know ..READ MY MIND..HEART TOO!!!:)
