This Too Shall Pass

Finding Our Purpose From Jeremiah #34~Stand Strong in the Storm ...

When you've done your best and stood your ground

and nobody supportive seems to be around

don't you dare give up on your stance

repeat to yourself "this too shall pass"

When you've cried yourself hoarse about your true feelings

To a friend or partner, with whom closure you are seeking

Even though it seems they don't validate your cry

Don't you run behind them asking "Why?"

When you've given all you've got to your dream

and all you seem to get are struggles that make you want to scream

Recall that roadblocks are blessings in disguise

Some come to redirect you, some to make you wise

When the storms in your life never seem to stop

Leaving you with no time to clean up or mop

Know that the storm itself is doing the clearing

Of all the negativity from your garden of life

When you've quit your toxic traits and started being your true self

Don't be afraid of comments, critics, labels or shelves

Those who matter to you, won't mind the change

And those who mind the change, don't matter to you at any range

When nothing seems to be going right

And you have been forced to buckle down in fright

Know that you are being humbled

And reminded to bend and pray, not grumble

Pray, pray with all your might

Pray till you get the strength to fight

Pray till you get the perspective in sight

That you finding and being your true self is your birthright.

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 ...

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 ...

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...
