Singing in the Rain -Shravan

Oh..beautiful rain!..

you inspire my soul..

You always come with the whisper of the wind.. 

You are musically dancing..,

romantically nostalgic..

lovingly healing..
and meditatively silent..

Your finest droplets in the purest sun shine

kindle the rainbows of dreams in the hearts of lovers..

Your clamor in the forest -

brings the silence of the universe down to the wilderness..

And when you fall on the leaves in the silence of the night,

I fall asleep with a prayer in my heart..

A beetle's death : Shravan

The other day in the twilight

I saw a beetle soaring into the sky

with a vague end in its mind

and then with a cloudless end in its mind

a bird flew up behind..

and snatched the beetle

from the sky into the beak..

After a moment’s silence...,

only the bird was there..

- happy and contented.

And the beetle ceased to exist

happily and contentedly.

silence of a moonlit night

A silent night

with the sky full of stars

and the brightest full moon,

that fell from the sky

into the serene pond

and joyously playing on the little waves,

that dancing in the wind..

the music of the wind passing through the bamboos..

Contrasting the depth of stillness;

the never ending chirping of crickets..

the song of a distant nightingale..

the plops of frogs jumping back into the pond

Reflecting the moods of nature,

my heart sang in the silence of my soul..

O! this moonlit night,

that sprinkled with the twinkling stars

and the ancient music

is filling my soul with penetrating silence!

Angel - by Shravan

You are an angel

I don't know whose

Yet who cares?

The flower in yonder valley

is nobody's own

And its fragrance in the breeze

is no one's own

My eyes are open to enjoy the beauty;

And my heart is wide to breath in the fragrance

The flower never says “it is mine”

The flower is there to please the world.

falling in love & rising in love - Shravan

beholding the luminosity of your beauty,

i fall in love

listening to the rhythms of your heart,

i rise in love

the most poetic thing in the world is your beauty

and your heart is the most serene space

let me drink from the ocean of your beauty

and let me dissolve myself into your serenity

allow my heart to merge into yours

allow me to melt

and disappear into the depth of your love

No Thought for the Day - Osho

"Truth is not a belief, it is utter intelligence. It is a flare-up of the hidden sources of your life, it is an enlightening experience of your consciousness. But you will have to give the right space for it to happen. And the right space is accepting yourself as you are"

Osho
