कुछ छोटें सपनों के बदले

कुछ छोटे सपनो के बदले, बड़ी नींद का सौदा करने..
निकल पडे हैं पांव अभागे, जाने कौन डगर ठहरेंगे..

वही प्यास के अनगढ़ मोती, वही धूप की सुर्ख कहानी..
वही आंख में घुटकर मरती, आंसू की खुद्दार जवानी..
हर मोहरे की मूक विवशता, चौसर के खाने क्या जाने..
हार जीत तय करती है वे, आज कौन से घर ठहरेंगे..
निकल पडे हैं पांव अभागे, जाने कौन डगर ठहरेंगे..

कुछ पलकों में बंद चांदनी, कुछ होठों में कैद तराने..
मंजिल के गुमनाम भरोसे, सपनो के लाचार बहाने..
जिनकी जिद के आगे सूरज, मोरपंख से छाया मांगे..
उन के भी दुर्दम्य इरादे, वीणा के स्वर पर ठहरेंगे..
निकल पडे हैं पांव अभागे, जाने कौन डगर ठहरेंगे..

कुछ छोटे सपनो के बदले, बड़ी नींद का सौदा करने..
निकल पडे हैं पांव अभागे, जाने कौन डगर ठहरेंगे..

लम्हों के झरोखों से

1.

मेरी हर दुआ हर अजान में तू है ,
कहते है घर खुदा का जिसे उस मकान में तू है
कैसे पहुंचेगी मेरी परवाज़ तुझ तक ,
मैं हूँ जमीन पर और आसमान पर तू है
मेरी इबादत मेरी मोहब्बत पर इनायत कर,
मेरे दिल और धड़कन के दरम्यान में सिर्फ तू है
मेरी ख़ताएँ नाकाबिले माफ़ी है शायद,
तभी तो बेपरवाह है इस कदर कि मेरे दर्द से अनजान तू है

2.

ऐसा नहीं कि हमको मुहब्बत नहीं मिली, 
तुझे चाहते थे, पर तेरी उल्फत नही मिली, 
मिलने को तो ज़िंदगी में कईं हमसफ़र मिले, 
पर उनकी तबियत से अपनी तबियत नही मिली, 
चेहरों में दूसरों के तुझे ढूंढते रहे दर-ब-दर, 
सूरत नही मिली, तो कहीं सीरत नही मिली, 
बहुत देर से आया था वो मेरे पास यारों, 
अल्फाज ढूंढने की भी मोहलत नही मिली,
तुझे गिला था कि तवज्जो न मिली तुझे,
मगर हमको तो खुद अपनी मुहब्बत नही मिली,
हमे तो तेरी हर आदत अच्छी लगी "फ़राज़"
पर अफ़सोस !! तेरी आदत से मेरी आदत नही मिली..

3.

ज़ख्म क्या होता है ये बताएँगे किसी रोज, 
कमाल की ग़ज़ल तुमको सुनाएंगे किसी रोज, 
थी उन की जिद के मैं जाऊं उनको मनाने, 
मुझे ये वहम था कि वो बुलाएँगे किसी रोज, 
मैंने कभी सोचा भी नहीं था ऐसा कि, 
मेरे दिल को वो इतना दुखायेंगे किसी रोज, 
उड़ने दो इन परिंदों को आजाद फिजाओं में, 
गर होंगे तुम्हारे तो लौट के आएंगे किसी रोज..

4.

आज मुझे फिर इस बात का गुमान हो,
मस्जिद में भजन, मंदिरों में अज़ान हो.
खून का रंग फिर एक जैसा हो,
तुम मनाओ दिवाली ,मैं कहूं रमजान हो.
तेरे घर भगवान की पूजा हो,
मेरे घर भी रखी एक कुरान हो.
तुम सुनाओ छन्द 'निराला' के,
यहाँ 'ग़ालिब' से मेरी पहचान हो.
हिंदी की कलम तुम्हारी हो,
यहाँ उर्दू मेरी जुबान हो.
बस एक बात तुझमे मुझमे वतन की खातिर यहाँ समान हो,
मैं तिरंगे को बलिदान दूँ, तुम तिरंगे पे कुर्बान हो.

5.

रूह के रिश्तों की ये गहराइयाँ तो देखिये,
चोट लगती है हमारे और चिल्लाती है माँ।
चाहे हम खुशियों में माँ को भूल जायें दोस्तों,
जब मुसीबत सर पे आ जाए, तो याद आती है माँ।
हो नही सकता कभी एहसान है उसका अदा,
मरते मरते भी दुआ जीने की दे जाती है माँ।
मरते दम बच्चा अगर आ पाये न परदेस से,
अपनी दोनो पुतलियाँ चौखट पे धर जाती है माँ।
प्यार कहते है किसे और ममता क्या चीज है,
ये तो उन बच्चों से पूँछो, जिनकी मर जाती है माँ।

6.

वो मुझे मेहंदी लगे हाथ दिखा कर रोई, मैं किसी और की हूँ बस इतना बता के रोई!

शायद उम्र भर की जुदाई का ख्याल आया था उसे, वो मुझे पास अपने बैठा के रोई !

कभी कहती थी की मैं न जी पाऊँगी बिन तुम्हारे, और आज ये बात दोहरा के रोई!

मुझसे ज्यादा बिछड़ने का ग़म था उसे, वक़्त-ए -रुखसत वो मुझे सीने से लगा के रोई!

मैं बेक़सूर हूँ कुदरत का फैसला है ये, लिपट कर मुझे बस इतना बता के रोई।

मुझ पर दुःख का पहाड़ एक और टूटा, जब मेरे सामने मेरे ख़त जल के रोई।

मैं तन्हा सा खुद में सिमट के रह गया, जब वो पुराने किस्से सुना के रोई।

मेरी नफ़रत और अदावत पिघल गई एक पल में, वो वेबफ़ा थी तो क्यों मुझे रुला के रोई।

सब गिले-शिकबे मेरे एक पल में बदल गए, झील सी आँखों में जब आँसू के रोई।

कैसे उसकी मोहब्बत पर शक़ करूँ मैं, भरी महफ़िल में वो मुझे गले लगा के रोई !....

तेरे शहर से तो मेरा गाँव अच्छा है
बड़ा भोला बड़ा सादा बड़ा सच्चा है
तेरे शहर से तो मेरा गाँव अच्छा है
वहां मैं मेरे बाप के नाम से जाना जाता हूँ
और यहाँ मकान नंबर से पहचाना जाता हूँ
वहां फटे कपड़ो में भी तन को ढापा जाता है
यहाँ खुले बदन पे टैटू छापा जाता है
यहाँ कोठी है बंगले है और कार है
वहां परिवार है और संस्कार है
यहाँ चीखो की आवाजे दीवारों से टकराती है
वहां दुसरो की सिसकिया भी सुनी जाती है
यहाँ शोर शराबे में मैं कही खो जाता हूँ
वहां टूटी खटिया पर भी आराम से सो जाता हूँ,
यहाँ रात को बहार निकलने में दहशत है
मत समझो कम हमें की हम गाँव से आये है
तेरे शहर के बाज़ार मेरे गाँव ने ही सजाये है,
वह इज्जत में सर सूरज की तरह ढलते है
चल आज हम उसी गाँव में चलते है
............. उसी गाँव में चलते है |

8.

मेरे ज़मीर को इस क़दर निचोड़ा ना करो,
हर मुसलमान को दहशतगर्द से जोड़ा ना करो
हम ने भी गंवाई हैं जाने आजादी के लिए,
तुम हमें शक की नज़र से देखा ना करो
हिन्दू हो,मुसलमान हो,सिख हो के इसाई हो सब एक हैं
तुम हमें मज़हब के तराजू में तोला ना करो
देख कर मासूमों की लाशों को जितना तुम रोए थे,उतना हम भी रोए हैं
तुम हमें हैवानियत की जात से जोड़ा ना करो
ज़रा देखो उस लाचार माँ बीबी और बच्चे को,
मासूमों की लाशों पर सियासात की चादर को लपेटा न करो
वतन के बानी हो अगर ,तो एकता पर विश्वास करो,
मज़हब के नाम पर वोटों को बटोरा न करो
जो करे वतन से गद्दारी वो इंसान नहीं शैतान है ,
तुम मेरे पाक मज़हब को इस शैतानियत से जोड़ा न करो.

9.

जब तिरा नाम लिया दिल ने, तो दिल से मेरे
जगमागाती हुई कुछ वस्ल की रातें निकलीं
अपनी पलकों पे सजाये हुए अश्कों के चिराग़
सर झुकाये हुए कुछ हिज्र की शामें गुज़रीं
क़ाफ़िले खो गये फिर दर्द के सहराओं में
दर्द जो तिरी तरह नूर भी है नार भी है
दुश्मने-जाँ भी है, महबूब भी, दिलदार भी है

10.

जो हुआ वो हुआ किसलिए
हो गया तो गिला किसलिए
काम तो हैं ज़मीं पर बहुत
आसमाँ पर खुदा किसलिए
एक ही थी सुकूँ की जगह
घर में ये आइना किसलिए

11.

तस्वीर बनाता हूँ तस्वीर नहीं बनती
एक ख़्वाब सा देखा है ताबीर नहीं बनती

बेदर्द मुहब्बत का इतना-सा है अफ़साना
नज़रों से मिली नज़रें मैं हो गया दीवाना
अब दिल के बहलने की तदबीर नहीं बनती

दम भर के लिए मेरी दुनिया में चले आओ
तरसी हुई आँखों को फिर शक्ल दिखा जाओ
मुझसे तो मेरी बिगड़ी तक़दीर नहीं बनती

12.

उसके होंठों पर रही जो, वो हँसी अच्छी लगी
उससे जब नज़रें मिलीं थीं वो घड़ी अच्छी लगी
उसने जब हँसते हुए मुझसे कहा` तुम हो मेरे `
दिन गुलाबी हो गए ,ये ज़िन्दगी अच्छी लगी
पूछते हैं लोग मुझसे , उसमें ऐसा क्या है ख़ास
सच बताऊँ मुझको उसकी सादगी अच्छी लगी
कँपकँपाती उँगलियों से ख़त लिखा उसने `खुमार `
जैसी भी थी वो लिखावट वो बड़ी अच्छी लगी

13.

भरी है धूप ही धूप
आँखों में

तुम्हें देखे ज़माने हो गए हैं

मेरा ही नसीब था

 
सब कुछ पास था उस के |
मुझे देने के लिए वो गरीब था |
उस ने बहुत धन दोलत दिया,
दुनिया को पर में तो एक गरीब था |

जो भी मिला उसी से मिला | ये मेरा ही नसीब था 
मेरा जनम हुआ ये भी उस के लिए बड़ा अजीब था |

कोई हंसा, कोई रोया, मेरे घर का ये माहोल था 
उस वक़्त माँ का दर्द में न समझ पाया था 
पर मुझे पता है माँ के में कितना करीब था 

जन्म की रात काली थी | चाँद भी न आया था 
दिन में बदलो ने डाला डेरा ये मेरा नसीब था 
दादा जी कहते है वो साल पड़ा बड़ा अकाल था |
सब कुछ कला था सिर्फ वो ही मेरा गुनगार था
ये कैसा मेरा नसीब था  ????????

बचपन बिता जवानी आई , घर छोड़ा ये कितना अजीब था 
आज तो माँ की ममता के लिए जीता हूँ  | हर रोज़ गम पिता हूँ 
 
गाव छोड़ के आया लेकिन यहाँ भी जीना मुहाल था ................

आज आज माँ के साथ मंदिर गया 
मंदिर में किसी ने पूछा तेरा चेहरा इतना उदास क्यों है| ?????
बरसती आखों में प्यास क्यों है और तुम मंदिर में क्यों हूँ 
जिनकी नजरो में तू कुछ भी नहीं वो तेरे लिए आज इतना खास क्यों है ||?

मैं कुछ न बोल पाया क्यों की वो भी तो मेरा ही रकीब था 
न कमी थी कोई जहान में, कमजोर मेरा ही नसीब था

नीयत हो गयी दूसरे के दर्द पर कमाने की 
ऐसे में कौन लोग किसके खिलाफ 
धोखे की कहाँ शिकायत लिखाएंगे.

Are you in a Healthy Relationship ??

POWER OF POSITIVITY

Relationships can either bring mutual growth and happiness, or feel suffocating and debilitating after a while. All relationships serve their purpose, whether you stay with someone for a few weeks or for an entire lifetime. Any relationship should support, encourage, uplift, and challenge you to become a better person, not drain you of energy and make you feel bad about yourself.

If you have to sacrifice any of the following things for your relationship, you might need to reevaluate what value the person adds to your life.

10 THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP FOR A RELATIONSHIP

1. FREEDOM

If you constantly have to check in with your partner, or feel guilty about going somewhere with friends or family, this shows that your significant other lacks confidence within him or herself. Possessive behavior almost always points to an extreme internal insecurity, often from unhealed childhood wounds, such as abandonment or neglectful parents. Even though this person deserves love and kindness, you need to cut ties with the person to allow them to heal on their own. Controlling behavior suggests that the person does not feel comfortable with him or herself, and this definitely needs to be worked out before he or she commits to any long-term relationships.

2. YOURSELF

Never change yourself for someone else; the right person will love you for nothing less than your full, authentic self. Also, the right person would never want you to change, because they truly enjoy your genuine essence, without you having to change a thing. Granted, relationships all require small compromises, like maybe eating at a restaurant your partner wants to try instead of the one you really wanted to go to, but you shouldn’t have to alter your personality or beliefs for someone else. Be yourself unapologetically, and if your partner can’t accept you, you need to go for someone who will.

3. HAPPINESS

If someone doesn’t enhance your life and add to your joy, then what purpose do they serve in your life? Bottom line: if your partner drags you down and makes you feel crappy about yourself and life, then it’s time to call quits on the relationship. You need someone who will match your vibration and bring vibrant energy into your life, not someone who leeches the energy from your life. Of course he or she won’t always feel completely blissful, but if they can’t seem to find happiness on their own or offer it to you at all, then let them go…they need to focus on inner healing, not a relationship.

4. FUN

Do you enjoy the company of your partner; do you laugh, play, act like kids, and try new things together? A relationship always comes with disagreements from time to time, but even after a long time of being together, you still should be able to do activities that bring out the inner child in both of you. You should never give up fun in a relationship – without fun, life can become pretty mundane, and it will only cause tension if you remain with someone who can’t relax and let loose every once in a while.

5. YOUR DREAMS

An ideal partnership consists of two people on the same mission, supporting each other every step of the way. Or, just two people who have different dreams, but still encourage and cheer each other on. If you don’t have someone on the same path as you, or even someone who has your back, don’t hesitate to leave the relationship. What you want out of life makes up a large portion of who you are, and you don’t need someone who dismisses or bashes your goals.

6. INNER PEACE

Your guy or girl should make you feel a deep sense of calm that makes you forget about the chaos around you. If they make you anxious, nervous, or angry a majority of the time, they will only weaken your own vibration and cause you to become vulnerable to negative energy. Your partner should have peace within him or herself, and reflect it onto you as well.

7. YOUR DESIRE TO EXPLORE

Life is about having new experiences often, so if your partner is unwilling to try new things and holds you back from going on your own adventures, you probably won’t find long-term happiness with this person. Your partner should actually encourage you to take risks so you can grow as a person, so it should be a red flag if he or she tries to inhibit your free spirit.

8. YOUR OTHER RELATIONSHIPS

Your relationships with friends and family shouldn’t have to suffer just because you have a boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancé, or spouse. This ties in with possessive behavior a bit, because this can greatly compromise the other relationships in your life. Your partner should allow you to have friend and family time without getting possessive and trying to control who you hang out with and when. Make sure you have an understanding, confident partner who doesn’t need you around all the time to be happy.

9. YOUR SPIRITUAL/RELIGIOUS BELIEFS

Some people do change their religion for their partner, but it’s different if you truly desire to practice that religion rather than your partner trying to force you to adopt certain beliefs. No relationship is worth compromising deeply-held beliefs or practices. Your partner should enhance your spiritual life, and hopefully grow with you as you evolve.

10. COMMUNICATION

Every relationship requires a deep commitment to truly listening to the other person and understanding his or her thoughts and feelings. A loving, open relationship comprises two people who value one another’s opinion, and don’t judge each other. If you continually feel that your partner doesn’t make an honest effort to communicate openly with you, let them know your needs aren’t being met. It’s so important to have an emotionally available partner if you want a successful, happy relationship.

I believe that two people are connected at the heart, and it doesn't matter what you do, or who you are or where you live; there are no boundaries or barriers if two people are destined to be together. We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it my dear Friends.

God Bless !!

Uncontrollable Love

Love knows no end; it doesn't keep time, 
And it doesn't want to be alone. 
It brings constant reminders as the days pass
Cherished by all who want to receive them. 

Love is said to be in the eye of the beholder 
But, love resides in your heart and soul 
And is nourished by others. 

Love springs up when you least expect it. 
Love is out of your control. 
Love keeps you continually wondering. 
Love is there for you to reflect on. 
Love teaches your life to grow. 

Sometimes love hurts, and you want to die. 
Take a deep breath and face it head-on. 
Love isn't going anywhere; it's there by your side. 

Memories of love can make you happy and content, 
But they can also make you cry. 
Please don't ask yourself why! 

When love is in your grasp,
Whether now or in the past, 
Gently receive it and don't turn your back. 
Love consoles and heals the heart.
Love is yours if you want it, so embrace it! 

Meditation - The First & The Last Freedom

Meditation is an approach to training the mind, similar to the way that fitness is an approach to training the body. But many meditation techniques exist. So how do you learn how to meditate?

“In Buddhist tradition, the word ‘meditation’ is equivalent to a word like ‘sports’ in the U.S. It’s a family of activity, not a single thing,” University of Wisconsin neuroscience lab director Richard J. Davidson, Ph.D., told The New York Times. And different meditative practices require different mental skills.

It’s extremely difficult for a beginner to sit for hours and think of nothing or have an “empty mind.” But in general, the easiest way to begin meditating is by focusing on the breath — an example of one of the most common approaches to meditation: concentration.

Concentration meditation

A concentrative meditation technique involves focusing on a single point. This could entail watching the breath, repeating a single word or mantra, staring at a candle flame, listening to a repetitive gong or counting beads on a rosary. Since focusing the mind is challenging, a beginner might meditate for only a few minutes and then work up to longer durations.

In this form of meditation, you simply refocus your awareness on the chosen object of attention each time you notice your mind wandering. Rather than pursuing random thoughts, you simply let them go. Through this process, your ability to concentrate improves.

Mindfulness meditation

Mindfulness meditation technique encourages the practitioner to observe wandering thoughts as they drift through the mind. The intention is not to get involved with the thoughts or to judge them, but simply to be aware of each mental note as it arises.

Through mindfulness meditation, you can see how your thoughts and feelings tend to move in particular patterns. Over time, you can become more aware of the human tendency to quickly judge experience as “good” or “bad” (“pleasant” or “unpleasant”). With practice, an inner balance develops.

In some schools of meditation, students practice a combination of concentration and mindfulness. Many disciplines call for stillness — to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the teacher.

Other meditation techniques

There are various other meditation techniques. For example, a daily meditation practice among Buddhist monks focuses directly on the cultivation of compassion. This involves envisioning negative events and recasting them in a positive light by transforming them through compassion. There are also moving meditations techniques, such as tai chi, chi kung and walking meditation.

Benefits of meditation

If relaxation is not the goal of meditation, it is often one result of it. Back in the 1970s, Herbert Benson, MD, a researcher at Harvard University Medical School, coined the term the relaxation response after conducting research on people who practiced transcendental meditation. The relaxation response, in Benson’s words, is “an opposite, involuntary response that causes a reduction in the activity of the sympathetic nervous system.”

Since then, studies on the relaxation response have documented the following short-term benefits to the nervous system:

1. lower blood pressure
2. improved blood circulation
3. less perspirations
4. lower respiratory rate
5. lower blood cholesterol levels
6. more feelings of well-being
7. deeper relaxation

Contemporary researchers are now exploring whether consistent meditation practice yields long-term benefits, and noting positive effects on brain and immune function among meditators. Yet it is worth repeating that the purpose of meditation is not to achieve benefits. To put it as an Eastern philosopher might say, the goal of meditation is no goal. It is simply to be present.

In Buddhist philosophy, the ultimate benefit of meditation is liberation of the mind from attachment to things it cannot control, such as external circumstances or strong internal emotions. The liberated, or “enlightened,” practitioner no longer needlessly follows desires or clings to experiences, but instead maintains a calmness of mind and sense of inner balance.

How to meditate: Simple meditation for beginners

This meditation exercise is an excellent introduction to meditation techniques.

1. Sit or lie comfortably. You may even want to invest in a meditation chair.

2. Close your eyes.

3. Make no effort to control the breath; simply breathe naturally.

4. Focus your attention on the breath and on how the body moves with each inhalation and exhalation.

5. Notice the movement of your body as you breathe. Observe your chest, shoulders, rib cage and belly.

6. Make no effort to control your breath; simply focus your attention.

If your mind wanders, simply return your focus back to your breath. Maintain this meditation practice for 2–3 minutes to start, and then try it for longer periods. 

Mindfulness is a quality that's always there. It's an illusion that there's a meditation and post-meditation period, which I always find amusing, because you're either mindful or you're not.

At one point I learned transcendental meditation. I was in that state of oneness with creation and it was as if I didn't exist except as a part of everything. Meditation is to dive all the way within, beyond thought, to the source of thought and pure consciousness. It enlarges the container, every time you transcend. When you come out, you come out refreshed, filled with energy and enthusiasm for life my dear Friends.

God Bless !!

Happiness is a State of Mind

Happiness is the status of our mind in a given condition. Everybody goes through their own struggles. They may vary depending on who you are, or the way you take on life. Some go through silent struggles, kept away from people and often concealed inside of them. But others go through loud struggles, meaning the battles in which the person is fighting can be easily heard by others. No matter how successful a person is, or may seem, they too have had their own battles to fight so that they can reach their happiness.

A tip to winning your battles, no matter what it is, is to cancel out all the negativity around you. In life, there is always going to be people who will try to drag you down and destroy you. It could be because of their own personal struggles and problems, or envy and fear. Just remember to always believe in yourself and stay strong. At times it may be hard but, be good to the people around you. They may not necessarily be good to you back, but i assure you that it will pay off.

Life is not easy and reaching your goals is not either. We as humans tend to put so much unnecessary weight, and stress, and planning on our shoulders. Too much of that can prevent from easily perusing your dreams. I know when i was younger, all i wanted to be was happy. When people ask me what i wanted to be when i grew up, i would answer with 'to be happy'. So always think of what makes you happy or what you enjoy instead of thinking about what you're good at and over planning. Anything can be improved and polished, anything can be learned.

So it's all up to you. To follow you're dreams and reach your goals.

It is like any other human emotion that we undergo yet profoundly influence the human life on the earth.

Ask anybody around you, for what they want to live. The ready answer is "Happiness". But everyone seek the happiness outside. When it is related to the mind activity we can emanate from inside.

Now the million dollars question is when or by which or in what conditions we become "Happy" But it varies with person to person and conditions they live in. It is completely a relative factor that makes us happy. So when conditions influence our Happiness we shall not subject our happiness to conditions or materials. Then we agree that "Happiness is absolutely an inside job."

It is quite obvious that, happiness is largely dependent on the following,

1. Abundance of what we desire physically.

2. Contentment over material possessions psychologically.

3. Accomplishment in a given task.

4. Winning among all the competitors.

5. Successful in a chosen profession or job.

6. Achievement of a life long purpose or dream.

The list goes on, it is never ending. But all these are the outside things that become reasons for our happiness. What they imply? There should be always a reason for us to become Happy. We can be happy without a reason. When we think about God's wonderful creation and innumerable blessings each day and each moment we receive unknowingly from him, more over an invisible light always shows path to our souls when ever we miss our direction,this kind of thinking stimulate our inner peace it would be reflected on our faces. It is more than happiness and it is "Bliss" which is eternal. When this kind of mental status is achieved, there is no need to seek happiness from outside.

We see many live examples as evidences to corroborate that happiness is not linked to material possessions. Despite getting success or achieving something many people are not happy for the only reason that they change their priorities to become happy. Always pursuing or haunting something makes us restless and ultimately it removes what ever the remnants of happiness from our lives.

Take a minute from your busy life to think about the beauty of the God's creation and just have a inner look for while to appreciate what we possess today, it gives immense pleasure. Make yourself oblivious of what will happen tomorrow, be cheerful about today and save this moment to become "Happy" my dear Friends.

God Bless !!

I Choose Abundance Over Scarcity

Live a Life of Abundance

Everything originates from the Self. This is the life we feel within us. The same life is expressing through all. The Self wants to explore its highest possibilities through man. For this there needs to be a setting, an arrangement.

So what is the setting of this Play Field? What is the arrangement?

This arrangement is a framework of laws called the Laws of Thought which are the cause for all creation, and the Law of Abundance.

The Law of Abundance

The Law of Abundance states that, “There is abundance of everything for everyone”. There is abundance of love, peace, happiness, wealth, health and avenues for expression in your life and everyone’s life. There is a natural flow of money, time, happiness, and harmony in your life and everyone’s life. Nothing less than abundance will do to provide for exploring the highest possibilities.

There is no limit. Abundance is one of the qualities of the Self. It is an inherent part of the functioning of Nature. Nature is inherently positive. There is no lack or scarcity of anything.

If this is so, then reflect on what is it for which there is a feeling of lack. The cause for the feeling of lack is always a core thought, a wrong belief. By any chance are you thinking that you have got less because an other person has more? Such a belief could be created in childhood when some siblings get more and some get less. A notion forms that our money is stuck with the rich. Do not think that Nature is so stingy. It wants to give generously to everyone. There is no lack there. But if you have received less then there is a core thought somewhere within you which says something like, “Money is less. It is hard to come by. Even if it comes, it does not remain.” Somewhere in your thoughts it is embedded that it is difficult to earn money. You have probably heard this in your childhood from your parents. “This is very difficult… this does not work… It is not easy… one has to go through a lot of hardship.” So much has gone into your psyche that it keeps working on you. Now that you want to break this framework, tell yourself this law. “There is enough.” If you feel you have less, it only means that it is stuck on the way. Why? Because you have taken off your ‘happy hat’. This is the hat of assurance that there is enough whenever and where ever you need it. The laws of thought imply that you will see everything in your life according to how your thoughts are. So wear the hat again and what is stuck will be released. It is stuck because of your chanting, that there is less. “My height is less… I am less beautiful… I am not so smart… I lack these qualities… Something is lacking… I am incomplete…” This thinking arises because of the core thought where one thinks of oneself to be the body. So imagine the feeling generated when even a single hair turns grey. “My God! Am I getting old?… Now my body will deteriorate… these ailments will begin… I will soon die…” The cycle of thoughts begins.

To a women who is childless and wants a child, there is no other topic for her in her life. “Till this happens, I am incomplete… I am inferior…” She remains in this feeling of lack. Her happy hat has come off a long time ago. But there is no need for this feeling. Be in the feeling that everything is available in abundance. Now when such a woman adopts a child, the feeling of lack has now gone. It has been seen in many cases that now this woman bears a child of her own as well. It appears like a medical miracle. But it was actually her own feeling of lack that got released.

The Source of Abundance

The missing link in the practice of Law of Abundance is that, “Things flow into your life according to the feeling you are in”. Happiness is at the source of abundance. The happier you are, the more abundance flows into your life. Be connected to this happiness simply through acceptance, gratitude, meditation and spiritual understanding. No external cause is required. Wear the magical hat of happiness to bring forth abundance. The “happy hat” makes you a magnet. Otherwise you are like bronze. Bronze here is a metaphor standing for a lifeless statue that does not attract anything. Become a relaxed magnet. Release your restrictive thought pattern. Let it go. Remind yourself that there is enough and remember to keep your “happy hat ” intact my dear Friends.

God Bless !!

सुख और दुख की परिभाषा

ऐ "सुख" तू कहाँ मिलता है..
क्या तेरा कोई स्थायी पता है..

क्यों बन बैठा है अन्जाना..
आखिर क्या है तेरा ठिकाना..

कहाँ कहाँ नहीं ढूंढा तुझको..
पर तू ना कहीं मिला मुझको..

ढूँढा ऊँचे मकानों में..
बड़ी बड़ी दुकानों में..

स्वादिष्ट पकवानों  में..
चोटी के धनवानों में..

वो भी तुझको ढूंढ  रहे थे..
बल्कि मुझको ही पूछ रहे थे..

क्या आपको कुछ पता है..
ये सुख आखिर कहाँ रहता है?

मेरे पास तो "दुःख" का पता था..
जो सुबह शाम अक्सर मिलता था..

परेशान होके रपट लिखवाई..
पर ये कोशिश भी काम न आई..

उम्र अब ढलान पे है..
हौसले थकान पे है..

हाँ उसकी तस्वीर है मेरे पास..
अब भी बची हुई है आस..

मैं भी हार नही मानूंगा..
सुख के रहस्य को जानूंगा..

बचपन में मिला करता था..
मेरे साथ रहा करता था..

पर जबसे मैं बड़ा हो गया..
मेरा सुख मुझसे जुदा हो गया..

मैं फिर भी नही हुआ हताश..
जारी रखी उसकी तलाश..

एक दिन जब आवाज ये आई..
क्या मुझको ढूंढ रहा है भाई..

मैं  तेरे  अन्दर   छुपा   हुआ    हूँ..
तेरे  ही   घर  में  बसा   हुआ  हूँ..

मेरा नही है कुछ भी "मोल"..
सिक्कों में मुझको ना तोल..

मैं बच्चों की मुस्कानों  में हूँ..
हारमोनियम की तानों में हूँ..

पत्नी  के साथ चाय  पीने में..
"परिवार" के संग जीने में..

माँ बाप के आशीर्वाद में..
रसोई घर के पकवानो में..

बच्चों की सफलता में हूँ..
माँ की निश्छल ममता में हूँ..

हर पल तेरे संग रहता हूँ..
और अक्सर तुझसे कहता  हूँ..

मैं तो हूँ बस एक  "अहसास"..
बंद  कर दे तु मेरी तलाश..

जो मिला उसी में कर "संतोष"..
आज को जी ले, कल की न सोच..

कल के लिए आज को ना खोना..

मेरे लिए कभी दुखी ना होना..
मेरे लिए कभी दुखी ना होना..
