Telling Me ..

The earth revolves in ellipses.
The hands of the clock move in circles.
Hills and villages are traversed by gypsies.
The water in a waterfall gurgles.

No one tells anyone to do anything-
Why should anyone tell me?
Even gods give choices to everything
Asking us to choose and accept with glee!

When I ask you, you do not tell.
When you ask, I tell you.
You tell me to distinguish between heaven and hell-
While you tell yourself that there is nothing such, because of no clue!

You tell me to do this thing in that manner
While you do that thing in this way!
Why, then, do you raise truth’s banner?
When lies are the only thing you tell, and say!

Don’t tell me,
If you don’t practice what you preach.
Don’t tell me to ask you! See!
When you ignore and screech!


- Abhishek Syal



This poem is written with the mindset of a teenager, or a college student. It is in this age that he dwells a lot on the duality that the common world gives his eyes to see and his ears to hear! It envisions the growth self-realization and individualism, to which he is attracted fatally to. He is the member of Gen-Y, the latest generation, and therefore, he believes in absolute, and cannot believe in anything which has no existence or proof or is devoid of logic behind its existence. There is also a surge of rightful attitude, which asserts one true self, in the direction towards an Identity. However, he believes in no God, and no spirituality, the ideals of which are replaced by the Self.


Notice the starting letter of Gods in the poem. Any difference? Now, Can you guess why???

To Win..

Sometimes, i think that winning isn't everything.

I think sometimes losing is better than winning. You learn the lesson with losing, that many times, is lost during winning.

Sometimes, you gotta lose to win. To win the war, you gotta lose the battle.

Sometimes, in Life, you gotta lose to learn how to win, and win big!

Failures are the pillars to success. Learning from mistakes build the shelter to success!

Osho's preachings VII THE GAMBLER..

to live dangerously, means to live. if you dont live dangerously, you dont live.

living never flowers in security; it flowers in insecurity.

the more alive you are... then there is no boredom, then there is no dust from the past, no desire for the future. then, the present moment is very sharp, like a flame.

religion is a spiritual risk.

love, but dont think that tomorrow the woman will be available to you. dont expect that.

dont make tomorrow predictable. expect nothing and be ready for everything.

the goal of your life should be centered at play. play means doing something for its own sake.

meditation is play. it is leela. you enjoy it for its own sake.

and when you start possessing each other, then, you both are no longer in love.

each moment has its own intrinsic value.

and whenever you can find any opportunity to risk, never miss it, and you will never be a loser.

Osho 's Preachings VI

infact, the whole life can be transformed into meditation, because meditation simply means becoming more aware.

so go inwards and be more aware. one day victory is yours-- that is absolutely certain. you just have to fulfill the requirement: you have to be totally aware.

what matters is that the man was total, and the total man never is defeated. his totality is his victory.

love is a risk. life is a risk. god is a risk.

Preachings of Osho V

mind is conditioned from the outside; it can be ruled from the outside. You have to grow into no-mind, only then you can not be ruled from the outside. Only a man of no-mind is a free man, independent. He is simply free.

intimacy with one man/woman is better than many superficial relationships. love is not a seasonal flower, it takes years to grow. and only when it grows does it go beyond biology, and starts having something of spiritual in it.

come so close to each other that you can look deep into the woman and the woman can look deep into the woman and the woman can look deep into you. don't be dishonest with each other.

meditation is the art of living with yourself. The art of being joyously alone.

you can leave the world-- you will be the same. you will again create the same world because you carry a blueprint in your mind. it is not a question of leaving the world,it is a question of changing the mind, renouncing the mind. That's what meditation is.

sitting silently, doing nothing, the spring comes and the grass grows by itself!

Discord's Cornice.. Revenge

stalwart unidimensional of life's tears,
mammal's deportment needs paregoric--
to foster the glorious human inside,
anecdotes of the ovoid zygote...

nugatory to careen on the selves--
the clones of the hatred,
stanch the wounds of the lascivious
illusive of evicting wounds themselves..

acumen lies in life's hustings,
recuperate from the plebeian--
refined, thoughtful perceptions
gives way to the providence.



This poem is written to signify the uselessness of demonizing one's own Life due to maltreatment by others, or due to wrong influences of wrong people in Life.

Instead, "Success is the best form of revenge."

It underlines this spirit in true humanity!

OSHO PREACHINGS IV

life is rich because there are differences, differences don't make anyone higher or lower. different attitudes, different opinions.

miracles still happen.

and a religious person is always young. even when he is dying, he is young. even in his death, he is full of joy, full of dance, full of song.

i would like the whole world to be full of feminine qualities. then only, wars can disappear. then only, nations can disappear. then only we can have one world: a loving, peaceful, silent and beautiful world.

repression is the way to avoid the risk.

be natural if you want to go beyond nature someday. be natural: that is the first requirement. there is a higher nature: that is the message of the Tantra.

sex is the man's greatest bondage.
you have to make every effort for meditativeness, so that all your energy, instead of moving downwards, starts moving upwards.

the moment love dies in you, many other things also die in you. a man who cannot love cannot be creative in any sense.

remember, no stage of life is ever lost. your child is still within you.

you become like an onion-- many layers-- and if you penetrate all the layers of child, youth and old age, are still there, intact.

patanjali, almost 5,000 years ago, taught a system in which every effect had to be led to a cause: prati-prasav.
prasav means birth.
prati-prasav means you are born again in the memory. you go back to the very birth. You relive. to relive, is prati-prasav.
