whats happening around me?

ohh, what days??no one knew Indian cities could be so terror-prone.I had gone for a satsang from AOL with my parents were the lesson was to live in harmony with your surroundings.Then had a fab. trip to Reliance mart, which my parents enjoyed, that was a intrusion of western shopping culture in India, definitely for good I must say.
But alas, I came back and heard about the successive blasts in Ahmedabad yet again.I had just come out of the gloom and grief of the blasts that stuck Bangalore yesterday.I mean, just look at my mindset with these happenings around. What fateful days going on??Are "things" on verge of entering a "dark hole".
I am not sure, if you can understand the above sentence. I shall explain the meaning of it in a later blog of mine.
Power crisis, fuel crisis, there is crisis all around.Infaltion rising...India once shining is in utter darkness as of today?I am not sure, how the situation has risen , nor very confident about how we Indians are going to recover and get back to normalcy.But I do standby to the courage and grit of fellow Indians, standing up after every trauma and getting back to daily chores the very next day of such aweful incidents.We do dont bring our lives to standstill. The next day,we get back to work and fun all together....But yes, the sense of insecurity in our hearts is fading away gradually.I am not prescribing any steps to recover from such traumas nor, to try halt such incidents in near future.I am pouring my heart out, trying to understand what is happening "around me and within me".

Lets find a solution

You see through the world, the world of misery-poverty-hunger.
You go through your insight, the sight of grief-loneliness-struggle.
You walk through the path-the way to non-existence-gloom-ignorance
I wonder at times, is this the composition of Life?What am I here for, other than the daily chores every human being performs to survive.I fail to understand the motive behind the whole concept of existence.
The plight of people around you, does it let you feel satisfied with yourself?
Not me atleast!!They say Lord Buddha after seeing the same sight, sought for "salvation".
But it did it help eradicate all the miseries he saw in this perishable world.The Lords, the saints, the knowledgeable strata of society speak about it, talk about it, but nothing to remove it from world.
Hold on folks, I need to complete it, I am in a state of fix as to what to add now !!!Help me, find a solution....

The fight-love

This is what my hubby-Ritesh wrote for me when we fought for one full day :)

dil tera ho gaya muje pyar ho gaya,
zindgi me meri kya khumar aa gaya..

shayad kahena tha mujko tumse kuch
fir kahe na saka wo kahi unsuni..
zuba par the kitne falak ye magar,
dil dhadkata hi rahe gaya hamsafar,

dil tera ho gaya muje pyar ho gaya,
zindgi me meri kya khumar aa gaya..

ek khwab jo he jisme tum hi ho,
ansu me mere, dard me bhi ho,
ankho ki palak aur jhalak me ho,
meri yaad hamsafar sari zindgi ho..

dil tera ho gaya muje pyar ho gaya,
zindgi me meri kya khumar aa gaya..

ek chaabi do apne dil ki,
ek aasha do tumhe paanne ko,
ek hansi de do apne hontho se aur chhupa lo muje apni baanho me

har kami kam he tumhari kami se
har ghum fika he tumhare ghum pe
har dhadkan me ab tum hi tum ho
waqt adhura he mera tumhare bina
[- Ritesh Mehta]

crux of life

yes, the crux of life is death.
And I will start my era of blogging with this subject.
One incident that hovers over my mind, of a person who is a stranger to me,of an incident no where related to me, but it keeps coming to my mind now n often.So, I decided to blog with something which has constantly blogged me since past few days.
A distant friend of ours, aged just 25 , who was supposed to celebrate his bday a few days back.
Yes, I said he was "supposed to celebrate", hmm, but someone who is so young, he hasnt yet seen life has been called to a distant world.No one knows the answer to this unfathomable question.Did you understand what the question is?
They say a man defines his destiny. Does he really? Readers do comment on the question.Coz I have been searching an answer for this since a long time.The person I spoke about above, lets name him "M" for my blog.So,M has spent his 25 yrs studying,and toiling to make a career for himself,his parents and his family.He hasnt yet seen life, now was his time to pay back to his parents whatever he could.But one fine early morning, M goes with his friends for bike ride exercise.And doesnt come back to this world ever after that!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, they met an accident with no fault of either the victim or any other person in this world.
So, what happened??Yes, there bike drove off an idle truck standing besides the road.
Destiny they say, right?So, I would leave with you a question - what was the purpose of M in this world??For that matter, whats the purpose of life??


And yes, I have chosen a lively color for some of the gloomy posts I might write.Thats what mirage and allusions are for me!!
