My Escape To Surrender

-
Escapism...

 World Criticized that it is escapism ....
Escaping from Life..
Escaping from Responsibilities..

Initially i used to resist but now,  I know yes it is escapism...

 I can proudly stand in front of this world and say in my source voice...
YESSS... I ESCAPED....

I escaped from taking to giving...
I escaped from Greed to Generosity....
I escaped from Lust to Love...
I escaped from Anger to Awareness...
I escaped from Complaints to Gratefulness...I escaped from my bad tendencies to good ones...


There was a chase....So...
Yes I ran for sometime till i reached a considerable distance....
Till i reached a place where i cannot go back....Till i forgot where i escaped from...

 My Escape from Bonding brought me freedom...
My Escape from the Head landed me in the Heart...
My Escape from feverishness brought me to Perfection...
My Escape from Doing ended up in Selfless Seva...
My Escape from Selfishness landed in Unconditional Love...
My Escape from Darkness brought Light in Me....
There was Uncertainty... So...
Yes I ran with someone till I knew my way....
Till i knew my destination...Till i reached... Till i knew i found my Guru....

 When I found HIM.. I realized... I am in the train...Running in the train will not reach me any further... I am being taken to the destination...

 Now I Relax .....
Knowing that I have escaped...
Knowing that my train have an able driver...
Knowing that i will reach my destination.. faster than anyone else..

Breaking away from the Jails...I realized that i was


In the Jail of Sorrow ...
In the Jail of Attachment ...
In the Jail of Jealuosy ...
In the Jail of Hatred....

Only a Brave one can Break... and Escape...
 
I donot regret... for being imprisoned...
For these Imprisonments only have transformed me....
  
Finally when few Miles passed... Few stations passed...
I realized...

 that I am again in the Jail...
But this time it was not an arrest... It was Surrender

 Willing I Surrendered...

 In to a Jail of Love...the Infinite Love...

 From this Jail.. I do not have the courage to Escape...

And there is no Escape....

 Hey Everyone Escape now... to realize that there is no Escape...
And Surrender into the Infinite Love...

From An Escapist who escaped from the World and surrendered in to Spirituality..

A Prayer to find my Sister Who I never Knew

-
My Sister left this planet when she was just 27 days in this planet... I may be 2 or 3 years old... Oh My Sister...  This is a letter written long ago in my heart but found its expression today.... It is a special day today .... I wondered always !!!! Why did You leave so early ?? Why did you come to this Planet all the way if it was to leave us so early ?? I know Life is a mystery...  As a child I overheard from a conversation from our family members that  according to my horoscope a girl child cannot be born after me .... Is that why You left ??  Somewhere am i responsible ?? Long time i had this fear... But i am sure i could not have done anything wrong in this life time...  If you were there with us may be I would have been a different person.. May be our family environment had been different.. I don't know...  But yes one thing for sure i have missed all the love you could have given me..  Luckily i studied in a co-education school

I Live For You I live

I wanted my Devotion to HIM like Meera... I wanted to be in Love with HIM like Radha.... I wanted to be Mad in HIS Presence like Sri Ramakrishna.... I wanted to create of Knowledge and Awareness like Swami Vivekananda... But when I met HIM.... I was afraid to even Speak to HIM... Fear with God ???...  The whole point i came to HIM was to move from Fear to Love... Feeling of Helplessness... But every time when i met HIM... He has made me wait... till I come back to the true self that is LOVE>>> so that i can express the ONE I am.... I became Myself... with all my shortcomings and qualities... HE wants me as I am..  He had and have many Meeras... He has and have many Radhas... But HE wants me as I am... What do I want???... I also wanted ME as I am...Always... He has put me through all these to make ME what I am.. it meant dropping everything.... Drop my Fear...Inhibitions...Judgments.. Positions... and Everything I have.... And HE waited and is waiting

In search of the Ego that lost in the Chennai Floods…

In search of the Ego that lost in the Chennai Floods… I don’t know if I had to pay back to the city I grew up this way… I don’t know if i was lucky to be there this time… I don’t know if I was destined to be here…. In my Child hood once when there was continuous rains I remember praying… Rain Rain go away… My bro and me even made a song for the same… May be that is why I had to be there to welcome this… I never ever felt that this was too much … Somewhere in me there was this acceptance of the outpour..  Because …. It happened more than 6 months ago I came to know that a disaster (tsunami kind of disaster) is going to struck Chennai this day… I knew the Master knew this… But waited to see how HE handles this… But ran out of patience and the fear that knowing this I am not doing anything about this.. Went to HIM and asked what to do ??? First HE did not answer… But later HE said it will be not be major.. Don’t Worry… Went back with Confidence… B
