What The Shadow Self Wants

I want your love

Tell me you love my ideas

Tell me I did my best

Tell me that nobody else matters to you but me

Tell me you'll help clear out my fears

Give me your hand to hold on to

Give me your shoulder to cry

Give me a warm, affectionate gaze

Give me the belief that I'm the best

I know there are better people out there

With more drive, passion and love

I just want to know that I am

One person who makes your world explode with joy

Show me your acceptance of my nature

All the good, the bad and the in between

I have been taught to judge and hate my imperfection
I need your compassion for my peace

Take me to a place far away

Where the stars meet the sea

Hold my face in your gaze

As though within me, you see beauty

I don't need you to put me on a pedestal

I don't need you to put me down

I only want your acceptance, understanding and love
That tells me, no matter what, I'll be safe and sound.

Give me some sunshine

Give me some rain

Give me another chance

I wanna grow up once again...!

~ Give me some sunshine, 3 Idiots

Of Meditations and Realisations

Being a self proclaimed spiritual enthusiast, it didn’t take me much time to delve into the world of meditation. And by delve, I mean going through various articles, how to’s and videos where people described what meditation meant to them, the various methods of meditation, the miracles they had experienced after a mere day of meditation, its overall health benefits and of course the overall increase in focus and mental clarity, etc. Notice I didn’t tell you anything about me practicing a full on actual meditation? Well that’s because I didn’t, at that time at least. To me, meditation was the most uncomfortable thing anyone could ask me to do (literally) It meant I had to silence the distractions I loved, ignore the distractions I hated and basically focus on something as boring as my breath or worse, a mantra in sanskrit, whose meaning I had no idea about and felt no form of devotion to. I couldn’t day dream of what an amazing meditation expert I would soon become (or even ...

Thank you Tears & Triggers

Triggers were something I used to actively avoid. Because of the way they made me feel: restless, frustrated, angry, disappointed and a wide spectrum of uncomfortable feelings. For the uninitiated, Psychology Today Triggers are are similar to that burnt or itchy feeling we get around any bleeding scratches, stinging bites or broken bones. The pain is there for a reason, to inform us that something is out of balance. Most of the time, we don't need to do anything except wash the wound and rest in one place, allowing our body to give primary care to heal the wound and ensuring our energy is concentrated mostly in healing. The irony is, we have been taught to take rest when we have physical wounds; but not for emotional wounds, especially when it too needs similar care. "Toughen up", "Man up", "Suffer Silently", "No pity parties", "Don't cry for this and all", "Stop being a baby" are some common generalizations thro...

Our Eternal Mother

The universe knows my struggle As I face nightmares in my sleep It knows my ecstatic happiness When I achieve my dreams within this dream The awakening is tough When I force ^ myself to become aware That my reality is but maya (slumber) That my consciousness needs elevation In the name of renunciation Don't force yourself dear little one The eternal universe warmly says What use is it to show the secrets of the cosmos, to a half awakened child who would rather prefer its sleep? What use is it to show nectar To a tiger loving its meat? Come to me when you're ready little one, f orever awaiting your arrival, i will be Fear not the world you leave behind, f or I am the true reality Forsake your ahamkaara* Forsake your sense of self For you are a dramatist emoting my script A director's actor, a breathing puppet Take however long to arrive at this realization Fear not death, for it is but the next ...
