breaking into verses and things
inspired, spontaneously
such is the magic of the creative darkness
...shoonya...
a verse by Ashutosh Bhupatkar----
turinja turinja
the words came to me
in rhythm and pace
in their fullness
and the meaning
hovered over
the essential
nothingness.
Then the letters
started dancing
around i
and formed
a string of hard n soft.
to turn into
a creative combat.
This silent pregnant space of nothingness exists within each one,each human being, even as it holds us all . It is a space of pure potentiality, where all is possible. It is not difficult to access this space, if only one can pierce the web of noise and begin to listen to the sound of silence. If one can just hold the silence within and listen, a new sound, a new word, a new song arises. And it sings through what ever it is that you know to do best. Best , mind you, is not about a perfection in form , but that which comes from the heart. And you need not be a singer or a painter, but be the best of whatever you do and hear the song move through you....I once heard the song move through a doctor's hand as she operated on some one close, for a full two hours...and through the smile of a student who had been struggling to continue and complete studying what she loved most to do, design clothes....and also through the strength and help of the man who anonymously pushed my car with his as it stopped at night on the road....who said it's a harsh world out there, when we all breathe...
About Me
- Moksha
- 'Unless one has a glimpse of the spiritual within , humans will always be clamoring for material things’- Ranjit Makkuni------------------- In this fast paced life with an influx of rapid audio visual bombardments, high aspirations,endless choices, healing for self and the planet can come through stopping and resting in the silence of present moment.............. Moksha is.... space to dissolve ignorance through knowledge, ‘I’ through experience, to touch the underlying timeless dimension present in all things. Moksha is envisioned as a space of sharing of experiences and knowledge from the travels through life, to trigger reflection, evoke inner journeys and contribute to a green, more sensitive living. Features, verses, anecdotes, sacred knowledge and wisdom drawn from across the world from any and everywhere ..... Nature, spiritual systems , arts, textiles, clothing, music,dance,learning methods.....also, stories of love,hope and humanity in real life. Moksha strives to value, preserve and grow all that reclaims the beautiful experience that being alive is. Moksha is a celebration of life in all it's flavours........ Ritu Jain..... ©2010 Ritu Jain
This is my first visit to the blog and I like what I see here: a commitment to expressing one's true thoughts and feelings. And you have a deep respect for words, sounds and colours. I find it very reassuring.
