जन्माष्टमी की अनेक अनेक बधाई

Greetings on the auspicious day of Janamashtami. May all your anxieties and pain be taken care of and may you remain healthy and wise, happy and prosperous !

Another month begins. A fresh new day in a fresh new month. Fresh month in the year. A year full of hope and good tidings. May you all enjoy the days ahead in tranquil circumstance.

Tranquility, peace, stillness are the virtues of those that are enlightened. That have through prayer and meditation gained for themselves the higher reaches of humanity. Let us be humans and not barbaric in countenance.

Is it not true that when the mind is not clear that when it revolts against people and society, it is the time  to step back a bit and watch the world go by. We may not always be consciously aware of it , but come the time to leave and it all comes back.

My mind is not clear today … and hope of its recovery seems dull and distant. In such circumstance does it not feel the need to travel out and check on various matters, not quite connected or detached.

I am struggling today. Fact is what one needs to say has been deciphered, but the will is not allowing it to come out. So be it. I shall finish here and now and hope from all of us a forgiveness on today’s performance.

We are liberated today … to go our ways … to succumb …. perhaps to reproduce, but nothing beyond.

All else will happen and may God grant you the liberty to execute it as you step out of the country.
