My experience with ego

I see an unfamiliar path

I sense a deep curiosity

I wish to go and explore

To discover and experience those unknowns

"Stop and stay!🤨 "orders an authoritative ego

I fight, rebel and move more

"Look at the comforts we have!🤗" displays a manipulative ego

Momentarily attracted but letting go,

I smile and wave it off, moving on more

"You will lose your identity!😠" warns a threatened ego

I contemplate, shrug and go on, seeking the unknown

"Don't leave me alone!!😭" pleads a scared ego

I look at it compassionately, grateful for its duty done, but hastening further, I go on

"You've made me break!😖" yells a broken, shattered ego

I empathize with it, acknowledge its pain, and move on

"Who am I ?😵" whimpers a nonexistent ego

I leave it alone to its questions, moving on

Lo behold, the path that hath unfolded,

Seemingly long, tiring and infinite before me

Now dissolves into a fantastic, unimaginable source of light

No longer waiting for but seeking me

"How did this happen?" I think idly

An answer issues from the light beautifully

The journey wasn't towards me outwards

But towards me ever present in you

To reach me, the ego had to go

Painfully shattered, existing no more

Oh elevated being, know this true

Your identity is, was and will be Me and not thy ego.

Now that you've given up your earthly list

Enjoy this cosmic bliss :)

The Art Of Acceptance

" Acceptance, in human psychology, is a person's assent to the reality of a situation, recognizing a process or condition (often a negative or uncomfortable situation) without attempting to change it or protest it. " - Wikipedia Hello Wanderers... an august April to you (pun intended :P)! March has been a month of earning too many brain wrinkles (which appear when one attempts to learn or apply something new), academically, spiritually and emotionally for me. And here I am to share my insights on the art of acceptance ( which would have made March so much more simpler for me ). What does acceptance have to do with brain wrinkles? You'll be able to answer this question by the end of this article. Now, before I start, let's get the basics straight. We lovely hoomans, with our amazing brain capacity and fantastic ability to analyze, create and predict, sadly tend to falter in one area where all other species seamlessly succeed - ACCEPTANCE. Having evolved wit...

Who is the One for you?

" The One " is a romantic concept indicating a "soul mate" who is a particularly special or compatible person * who knows us completely, accepts us, stays with us no matter what and with whom we can be truly vulnerable, feel safe and secure always. Let's view it from a scientific and logical perspective. It has been proven that we are made of atoms from stardust as most of the elements that make up the human body and every creature in existence were originally present in stars (i.e) the collisions with asteroids, comets, solar waves from other stars over millions of years prior to the formation of the first ever living being on this planet, brought the necessary elements essential for life to this planet. So, logically , soulmates must be people with most number of complementary atoms. You see one person with whom you feel that you share so much in common and you try to get to know them deeper and deeper. Your intimacy with them grows exponen...

Inside the Mind of a Missionary Worker

I wrote this poem in an attempt to dive inside the mind of missionary workers and healthcare warriors, who are the need of our pandemic struck world. I was curious to explore how they could genuinely and unconditionally give sisterly and brotherly love to victimized people, who often shame themselves - as in, they hate their own existence and don't love themselves. It's easy to love people who love themselves or at least have learnt to deal with their insecurities and have stopped projecting their fears and complexes onto other people. But how does one love someone who hates themselves? Let's see. I want to love you no matter what you do whether you hit, beat or curse I want to love you no matter who you are genuine or a toxic farce I want to love you no matter what you throw defenses, screams and abuses galore I want to love you You know why? It's the only thing that's gonna set me free and help me fly So how do I love you when you are this mess of s...
