Time to get life back on the tracks. Not worth the crib. Time to move forward in life. Bitterness is not my style. I am born optimist. Always positive. It is like being healthy. It is natural. Illness is unnatural. So is negativity. I treat life like a child. Try not hurry and nothing to worry. Need to loosen up a bit. Time to do some creative visualisation, a technique proposed by Shakti Gwain. The trick is to visualise something that you want. And go into the finer details. The more details one visualises, the closer you are to the object. Very relaxing. They say that when you visualise something, the entire universe starts working to bring that object into your life. It is a positive affirmative technique. I would love to be in Goa right now. Sitting on my favourite beach-Vagator with my husband. Just the two of us. The beach is very unusual. When one is sitting on the rocks, the sea waves are at the human eye level. You suddenly feel as if you are actually sitting under the waves. Towards one side of the beach is a short hill, over looking the sea. Amazing sight. In the dissappearing light of the evening sun, the sea, the moutain and the beach all turn strange colours. Blue, then orange and then purple. Gradually people start leaving the beach. It becomes silent. As time passes, it grows darker and more quite. One can hear the stray dogs barking. Silence....listen to the sound of the waves....soothing, rythmic consistent in its range. Gradually it all fades away into the night. The sea, the beach and the hill are all engulfed in the darkness of night.
It is like a music in silence. The sound of the waves are just phonetic interludes in the symphony of silence. Yes I would love to be there with you. Away from all the unnaturalness that we have learned to treat as 'normal'.
ReplyDeleteI just remembered a similar moment when I, as a child, toured to Rajgir, a Buddhist center in northern Bihar. We attended the mass ceremony. The chief monk was a 8 year old boy. It felt like 'The Last Emperor' happening in real life. All one could hear was a continuous rumble of prayer and rhythmic beating of a shallow drum. One instantly gets into a trance that fades into peaceful silcence.
It is only in silence that one can hear the divine music of lord Shiva, the omkar or Om.
