The YouTube video above is based on my poem ‘ Pleasures of the path ‘ .
I shot this video during my trek to Kuari Pass and I was completely mesmerized by the beauty of the Himalayas in Autumn season. It’s difficult to experience the same by watching this video but i hope my poetry did little magic to evoke the same emotions which I felt during the trek.
Thank you for watching and being a part of my blogging journey so far.
My Dear,
Are you still there ?
Searching for me ,
In the mist of the past,
Or in the smog of future!
Maybe I am not here
In the Now,
Maybe I faded long ago.
Ever changing waves of life.
Search me deeper,
Walk through your breath,
Sail on your emotions,
fight with your memories.
Hold on your tears,
Push that ocean from deep within,
Your love churns through time,
Revealing me in the showers of eternity…

There are times when you really feel that you can’t walk anymore, you want to give up.
But then a voice comes from nature, it pushes you further and it rewards you with it’s charm.
Suddenly your energy comes back and you don’t want to stop anymore…
Yes, if you walk long and if you feel like you are going nowhere then don’t stop, ’cause you are very near to something.
Something, which may not be your goal but it will give you solace, it will give you strength, it will give you contentment.
So keep climbing and never give up.
You imagine,
To lead a perfect life.
A life full of dreams ,
And no sorrows.
But is this possible?
A life without hiccups,
And no loss ?
Or do you feel,
The wonders of life,
Without falling down?
No, absolutely not.
Your joys, your happiness,
Your ecstasy and every high
Thing feels wonderful ‘cause
You once tasted the bitterness
Of sorrows, of defeats,
Of losses.
Life is an adventure ,
Once you go down,
And then you go up.
Happiness to sorrows,
Sorrows to pain,
Pain to contentment,
And finally
contentment to joy…
There’s a world out there,
Out there in the wild,
Your roots lie there in the open,
Waiting to grow you with sunshine.

I have started my YouTube channel recently to share my travel stories. I hope you like it and follow me there.
Happy New Year 2023
There’s a light fading with a promise,
The promise to bring sunshine again,
Till then let me bathe in it’s wonder,
The wonder between darkness and sunlight…..

Hope you had a great year, some may have struggled. But, What really matters is just you hang on there, try to have fun with whatever little moments you get. And wait for the amazing moments to shine on you…
Sooner or later they will….
Worries pushes you deeper,
In the whirlpool of anxiety,
Forces you to panic,
Until you lose your mind!
Things that has no presence,
It is only feeding your mind,
What’s the point of those worries,
When they may not even arise!
Let these moments come,
Close your eyes and wait,
Let them come to you, inhale
And exhale them without a trace!
When panic hits you,
And you get lost with anxiety,
Remember to slow down and feel
The moment that shines on Now.

Throughout our lives we cling onto something, waiting for that thing to give us happiness, success, or something pleasant in return.
But what we get in return? Nothing, disappointment, sadness. Maybe expectations drive us, it pushes us towards our goals, we try hard to achieve that, but in spite of so many efforts we are left with nothing.
Then comes a point of disappointment, grief, frustration because we are still attached with that goal or expectation . This is where we are harming our selves, losing the essence of our lives, we lose our happiness.
This is where we have to give up on those hopes and seek contentment.
The biggest thing in life is to understand the right time to give up on something. When it’s really needed to find our true purpose, to find true meaning of life.
Persevering , until we get exhausted and finally find contentment in our efforts.
Relationships , goals , success, money all stay here when we finally say goodbye. So why so much fuss for the attachments we live with. Give up on all those things that disturbs our stay here in this life.
Maybe this is a new beginning for that….
Greed is often considered as bad or wrong , in fact it is one of the seven deadly sins we are told to stay away from to lead a better or clean life.
But is it really so bad? I mean it is mostly the driving force of anyone’s life. But again, it can lead to wrong path and could bring chaos.
For instance, if any king or dictator desires absolute power he could bring chaos for the entire world.
On the other hand it can affect the world in a positive way. A person who aspires to become famous through his talent or good work then that greed is good and justified.
If we have a little greed to become or achieve something and work hard towards it, if everyone becomes active that way, renouncing laziness, it could do wonders for an economy.
I mean excess of everything is harmful and to lead an active and balanced life we should drive ourselves with Little Greed .
There is importance of both negative and positive energy in our universe. What brings balance or makes life possible to thrive is the balance of both energies and not the excess of any one.
