Oh boy!!

running after inglorious material gains??
there is no true gains
there is no true loss
'Gains' we all live more
losses makes us go blind

but she is looking so beautiful

with the dynamics of birth
purposes and defeats
quest to read my own mind
newer task of my own kind

oh! she is looking so beautiful

could have left it unsaid,
alas!! like always
alas! unlike always
i did speak my heart out, often
to sound damned

she is looking so damn "beautiful"

I think

my dreams are nothing but I,
my thoughts are nothing but I,
they are not about wealth;
not even about self.

unable to understand people who can always think
here,
I work get tired and then, I think
I sin and cry then, I think
I lie and then, I think
am slapped of and, I think

able to understand role I have been given a bit
I feel tied and then, I think
I love and hate, I think
I care and wonder and then, I think
I aspire and then, I think

doors keep opening and closing on my face,
I get frustrated and, I think
am furious and, I think
am broke and then, I think
am conspired to doom, I think

chanting mantras all day, I can't think
wandering far and wide, I can't think
no worldly chores, I can't think
no finger on my face, I can't think

I know my body is not me
still it's my abode for a while
a drop of water falls from the sky....
on leaves, it is one of many
in ocean, it is lost
on face, whipped off
on sand dunes, it holds a bit
where are you my dear??
where am I?

everything happens for the balancing
with your mind you choose
be condemned, be praised
you pay heed, thence you loose

attachments detachments will tear you apart
you have a Heart
you have a Heart
filled with frailties
bewildered with reality

one day we all will be gone
to take weightless form
gracious death will catch us all
to take us wherever we want.

जो भी हो!!!

परोक्ष अपरोक्ष रूप!
कलि है छाया पर सुनहरी धुप!!
जीवन का अंत; अनंत
मृत्यु की ओर अग्रसर; जीवन पर्यंत

प्रत्यक्ष अप्रत्यक्ष वास्तविकता
रूदिवादिता या अधोनिकता
धर्म अधर्म का मायाजाल
खोया चेतन असामयिक काल

सूक्ष्म या वृहद् ज्ञान
सागर सामान अभिमान
शंभंगुर तन नित नयी काया
ना जाने कहाँ जाना है, न जाने क्यूँ आया?

ज्वार भाता या रक्तचाप
निरंतर चलता विभात्सा नाच
योधाओं का महा घमासान
विजय पराजय और वर्त्तमान

भक्ति योग और भोग
मृत्युलोकियूं के अलोकिक बोल
सहमे से आदर्श झूटी सांत्वना
सच नित लज्जित भावना

पर तज देना भी उपाय नहीं
खोज में जुटे रहना या खो जाना कहीं
पथ मात्र पथिकों के ही
विश्वास को बलवान करो बस अभी
विश्वास को बलवान करो बस अभी

दिल में जो तस्वीर थी तेरी, उसे तो कब का जला दिया
अब तो न तुम हो न तुम्हारी यादें .
पर क्यूँ जलती है आँखों को तेरी तस्वीर का धुआं?
जब दिल के रेत पर लिखा तेरा नाम वक़्त के समंदर ने कब का मिटा दिया.
