My Soul Asks for Peace!!

 

Soul Satisfaction and Journey of Life

I am walking on a lonely path!

That is swallowing my passions and strengths

I feel like losing what a soul I was

Or it is a matter of time

that

Makes everyone change a path of life

I am not on a road that described my being!

I am walking all straight without knowing the line to follow

The world is a combination of distractions

And I am a weak fellow for this world

Full of masks of dead feelings

My heart yearns for true love

And find hypocrites all around

May be I am not in love with this world

and

Something inside is breaking me

A desire to be in a world that is lovable

Where there is peace within and all around

But I know there is no peace around

Only death can take me to that Paradise

Where I will be in comfort of soul and have peaceful life!

Will I be in Paradise is a question that I fear

not to ask

To my soul and to get its true answer!!

Why WE Prefer to Leave Peace of Mind for Material Gains?

Spiritual Peace and Nature

I am pondering on one situation that is so much common with modern man, and that is to switch from one place or job to another for the sake of material gains. It happens everywhere and at the cost of having a tough and hard life but we keep on doing that. I remember a long time ago when I was attending a sitting session with a great intellectual of our earlier times. He asked all of us being Representatives of Youth.

He asked us a simple question that was outwardly simple but carried a great Wisdom Path. He asked us all as if why we were losing our Precious Lives and Present Moment for the sake of gaining high salary jobs, and to upgrade our Social Status. Everybody tried to give answer but I was silent not because I had followed his hidden point, but due to the fact that I was always on the point to live a peaceful life, and if prosperity comes as ALLAH’s Will then we need to be thankful for it. But not to follow the blind path of Success that might lead us to distresses and depressions.

Now the question arises as why we are fighting this battle of hardships as to win some name, and to get more luxuries. Isn't it an irony that we do not know as if we would be alive on the very next day? But we keep on striving on this strange path of so-called glory and growth? Dreams and Desires are unlimited, and who will make a fine balance to let his or her SOUL all in Peace? Modern world with attractive gadgets all around make us all blindfolded to keep on moving on a path that might not be meant for us. Here I would tell you few harms of this unnecessary battle of Material and Social Growth!

Losing the Creative Self

Yes! We are losing the creative minds and the motivation to do something so awful that the world will remember us. We are only longing for comforts and luxuries and do not want to learn new arts, and to get into world of charismatic creativity for the sake of it any more!

Social Isolation and Increase in Psychological Issues

Now people don’t have time to spend with their loved ones as everybody says around “Time is Money”. But have you seen that the distraction and ignorance has caused a whole generation of direction-less Youth. Now old people live in Old Homes and nobody bothers the psychological and Soulful needs of another person!

Sense of Materialism Prevails on a Larger Scale

Now look at the motives and hidden truth behind all our moves. We want to be social in order to get any sort of benefit for future. We do not concentrate on agonies and pains of others, and just try to be friends for good worldly reasons.

I have highlighted some major issues that the whole world is facing in terms of Humanity and losing connection with Hearts, Minds and Souls of others. We have lost the true value of precious love that had an ability to bind us together in families, groups and societies for better reasons. Now we see the chaos all around, and people gather to protect their rights or to gain some negative motives. Spirituality and Mysticism has lost its value, and we can’t find any more people so easily who are having Divine Light with them, to heal our souls and to direct us towards Peace of Mind as well!

Time Sets Us Free or Chained?

Waiting for Freedom

I am wandering for so long as what is a real Human Destiny, and why we keep on waiting for future when the only time we have is NOW. Yes! It is a great irony of all human individuals that we keep on framing ourselves in perfect situation in the days that nobody has seen. If my soul is aching right now then I need an antidote for it right now, not in a time zone that might not even exist for me!

I am afraid that I cannot express what I really feel when I am referring to present moment and its importance in our real lives. If I wait for a blissful moment that is no-existent right now then I am wasting my energies like all you guys. I have to have only one option, to spend this time in something that is fruitful and peaceful for me and for others around me. I am not saying that you should shun off all opportunities or plans that you have long made for coming years. So the time must make us free and not chained into a series of duties that we must perform before death!

Here I would like to give you my example as I went on a road trip last month, and considered it to be an escape from my daily chores and responsibilities. I am not afraid of daily life works and challenges but I wanted to rejuvenate my soul my soul or spirit to come back with new vigour. To start my responsibilities in a much nourished and refreshed way. I got tired of travelling but I kept on seeing things with a great feel that I might not be able to return to those lands. So just chill out and see everything.

I saw life in so many colours as it was a countryside with quite a culture that is still deeply rooted with Earth. So I saw historical and kind of timeless monuments, and then I realized a new factor as who made those monuments. Those people must be having only one thing in mind to make glorious buildings, and to make a huge impact on the people of their times. But where are those people who built those monuments and the ones who were supposed to be suppressed. All are gone and only a historical transcript is placed at every place!

Now such a common man can move through the corridors of power and glory! It reminds me of the real essence of life. To make your life easy for yourself and for others as everybody is going to die. But the history is so cruel that it would only make a board or transcript of yours. So live in a mode as tomorrow you are going to die, and do deeds that can make you alive in the memories of people. The ones that are sweet and a feeling of love and gratitude for you. My journey was both inside out so I realized it so strongly to share it with you!!

Travelling through Self History!

It happens that we start a journey towards some destination and ends at finding our own self, somewhere in the middle of nowhere. You can just imagine a desire to go on a travel that is soulful and you can see various people from different races and creeds. But each individual represents a certain aspect of your own personality. I started a journey towards South to discover some centuries old monuments, and when I reached there. I felt as if I was there at some other time.

I wanted to grab that moment in history and to be in an era that I have never seen but just imagined, and wished strongly to be in that time. I wanted to know the small details of that era and it seemed that it was alluring and soothing, and made me free of so many twists and turns that modern life is offering. So this is it but I am deeply fascinated and loved to be in a a paradigm that makes me love what is seen and more of what is unseen.

Most of times, we are like that as we start some plans of life with a clear cut objectives but reach at a destination where there is no U Turn. But that new alley or valley is even much more beautiful than wee expected. I was present at an old Shrine and Praying to Almighty ALLAH when I realized the clear cut sense of Timelessness. I was not in the present moment but my soul was so light and I felt like a burden of tons just got out of my shoulders.

I am in awe and I am in despair as I  am back to my normal hectic life but a very major part of mine has just stayed there. I want to take swings to that moment when time and space lost its meaning for me. I want to cherish something that is surely Divine but present in me like a small dot of eternal light. I am here in my bed room but not present here. I want to reach out there, and I want to experience the time that is chained with timelessness!!

Platonic Love Really Exists Somewhere in this Material World ?

Platonic Love and Modern World

I am student of literature and I kept on reading different things that are discussed here and there. Most of times it is not a case as ideal that literary people have presented us. Like I would share my thoughts as what is “Platonic Love” and how to explain it in modern terms. If you tell me about literary way then it is a description by a famous philosopher Plato. It tells a mental state when a person is in love with other one without having a desire to acquire him or her physically. 

Platonic Love means a love that involves Soul Connection, and it has nothing to with material gains, outward beauty and to get any kind of benefit. So it is really an important aspect of Human Psyche and it must be in the world sometime. But at this moment, I cannot find that this philosophy does not work right here at the moment!

Now the whole world has changed and it becomes only a clichéd statement that a person can love without expecting anything. Here the human psyche has changed and we love to be loved, and to get benefit in one way or other. Either we feel the comfort of having someone who adores us and can give us something like love, compassion and a TIME for sure. Now the soul connection and just keep on thinking about a beloved is no more payable.

It is a world of quick actions, responses and demands. Now no one wants to be in love with someone who cannot give him or her anything. Now Love is a matter of give and take, and people have no time to spend in thinking and living in dreams. Modern worlds has snatched the innocent and pure forms of love and even a simple way of life!

It is a tragedy in itself as we are not realizing its drastic dangerous effects. We are losing the concerns and bonding that our ancestors used to have. Asking anyone to date or to have a one night stand won’t give anyone real happiness, and it eventually turns out into loneliness and desperation, and off course depression. Is it possible that we can develop purity in relationship, and I am leaving to my respectable audience to guide me in this context!!
