LOVE NATURE GOD AND ME

 Love has its own silent language and when nature converses in this language of love you begin to discover that you too are a part of this ever blooming nature.Love  and gratitude oozes from your expanded heart and you receive much more than you give or seek .

You embrace this sacred  love sensation with a feeling of immense satisfaction and become one with the awesome nature and with everything created in this Gods  beautiful world .You see Gods outstretched armscalling you to love all in the same way that he loves you .

We are all part of nature then why do we drift away from nature as we grow ?In this drift we also drift away from love .Love is truth .Why do we shy away from this truth ? To understand love we must first understand nature which is content and blissful .Nature reminds us in many ways that love is  in giving to others without expecting for nothing in nature lives for itself . 

A walk with  nature, whether by the  mountains. valleys ,sea, river, woods or the meadow works wonders for the  human soul .i share my musings on  venturing into the mountains with nature ,love and God 

❤️❤️❤️ I LOVE YOU ❤️❤️❤️ 

Walking up the mountain 

encircled with flowing fountains 

 I see Gods beautiful world abound 

Where nature astounds 

and love  surrounds 

an echo resounds 

abruptly from nowhere 

I love you ....I love you 

❤️❤️❤️

chimes the fragrant air

My heart sings and leaps 

My emotions run wild and deep 

Suddenly I feel HIS grace 

In a loving tight embrace 

Winds encompassing me 

caressing my face 

blowing my hair in sweeps 

Golden sun rays 

kissing my flushed cheeks 

Dancing white clouds 

float gracefully around 

With musical silent sounds 

They whisper and greet 

I love you ....I love you 

❤️❤️❤️

they repeatedly  tweet

this echoes all over the land 

like a soul awakening band 

Nature has opened its loving heart 

Welcoming me as its beloved part 

Mingling with harmony and peace 

letting all  differences cease 

For we are all one our creator is one 

We are epitomes of love and elegance 

bathed in his  sweet benevolence 

singing gratitude with deep reverence 

With my hands folded in prayer

I smile at this beautiful love affair 

I bow with bended knees 

surrounded by whistling breeze 

My heart sings with ease 

I love you ....I love you 

❤️❤️❤️

yes that's  true 

Losing myself in this love 

Is the most noble virtue 

Looking at the vast skies 

My heart jumps in piles

I see HIM high above 

With eyes full of love

a halo shining bright

radiating divine light  

His wide open arms 

beckoning me to his side 

with an uncanny charm 

I hear and see him smile 

I love you ..I love you 

❤️❤️❤️

My precious child 

Let nature's peace flow in you

Like the sunshine flows into trees 

Like the rivers flow into the sea 

अजीब दास्ताँ है ये

अजीब दास्ताँ है ये 

गुल ने कलियों से कहा,

मैं तुझ में था पहिले से छुपा,

तू ना जान सकी ये भेद मेरा ,

मेरा अंश  तो  है तुमसे  ही बना,

ये है मेरी अजीब दास्ताँ ,

रब कैसा है ये करिश्मा ।

लैहरों  ने  समुनदर से  कहा,

मैं तुम से अलग कभी थी ही नहीं ,

मैं तुम से निकली और हू तुम  में  बसी 

मैं तुझ से हुई ,और हुँ तुझ पे फ़ना ,

ये है मेरी अजीब दास्ताँ ,

रब कैसा है ये करिश्मा ।

किरणों ने सूरज से  कहा,

मुझे रोशनी तुमसे है मिली,

तेरी शक्ती है मुझ में भरी ,

मैं तुम्हारे ह्रदय से निकली ,

ये है मेरी अजीब दास्ताँ ,

रब कैसा है ये करिश्मा ।

कस्तूरी ने हिरन से कहा

तू ना हो इस तरह परेशान मेरी जान 

यूं ना तू मुझे ढूँढ मेरी बात मान 

मैं हूँ पैहिले से तुम में छुपी हुई 

ये है मेरी अजीब दास्ताँ ,

रब कैसा है ये करिश्मा ।

आत्मा  ने  मन से कहा ,

तू देख नहीं मुझको सकता,

मैं हूं तुम्हारे  दिल में बसी हुई,

तुम्हारे  देह से हूँ मैं डकी हुई,

पहचान मुझे मूर्ख इन्सान ,

क्यों बाहर ढूँढता है भगवान ।

ये है अधभुत  अजीब दास्ताँ 

रब का बनाया  सुन्दर  गुलिस्ताँ।

कहाँ  शुरू हुहा कहाँ ख़त्म हूआ 

आज तक नहीं जान पाया इन्सान 

जानने की ज़रूरत है भी नहीं 

जो रब ने बनाया सब कुछ है हसीन

पुष्पा  चतुर्वेदी 

PURE SILENCE

 PURE SILENCE .....

Pure  silence is within me in here 

An apparent still space magically pure 

A rise a fall which eventually subsides 

Gives rise to a mystic nothingness inside 

Pure silence is my very BEING 

The truth I have always been seeking

Graced with nothing more nothing less 

Blessed am I with this pristine possess 

Pure silence  is real  and unchanging  

Unlike the outside noise ever changing 

This beautiful BEING is worth embracing 

Full of consciousness and love amazing 

Pure silence whispers softly in my ear 

You are not this You are not that 

You are a diamond embedded here 

Each facet shines revealing a clue 

Understand and know what is true 

Pure silence is the core of each living creation 

The seat of awareness and self realization 

Every single  breath and beat of yours 

Is driven by  it's powerful silent vibration 

Pure silence permeates your whole BEING 

It mysteriously spreads its beautiful wings 

Giving you all that you need ,seek and hope to see 

It allows  you to BE and to be FREE

OH GOD LET MY SHADOW CEASE

 THEY kept speeding and listening to the din outside 

Never stayed still to listen to what comes from inside 

Became restless and stressed during the ride 

But 

THOSE who were awakened by their inner voice 

Enjoyed the silence and peace away from the noise 

THEY kept dreaming of possessing all they saw 

Couldn't resist sense desires drooling with awe 

Their needs multiplied they were never satisfied 

But 

THOSE who remained content with what they had 

Never felt  unfortunate jealous unhappy or sad 

 THEY kept hoarding selfishly all they possessed 

Even connived to grab others shares instead 

No amount of what they had was ever enough 

But 

THOSE who generously gave away all they could 

Spread happiness and joy and felt so good .

THEY lived their life imprisoned in ego and greed 

Went to any extent to make others hearts bleed 

Ultimately it was they who fell face down indeed 

But 

THOSE who honored  integrity humility and honesty 

Lived a life without fear preserving their dignity 

 THEY loved with expectations to be fulfilled 

When not as expected their joy was killed 

Love lost its charm giving way to conflicts 

But 

THOSE who loved unconditionally without expectations 

Understood and accepted happily without frustration 

THEY could never reach the shore despite all they had 

Possessions made them heavy that they drowned instead 

They never let go ego ,attachment ,lust greed and rage 

But 

THOSE who lived a life of  love content  and sacrifice 

Flowed effortlessly and reached the shore of paradise 

 OH GOD !!! bless me to be THOSE and not THEY 

Give me the wisdom to follow your voice and pray 

Catch my hand  tight don't let me go astray 

For 

Then only can I become love bliss and peace 

Become one with you so that my shadows cease

A BEAUTIFUL RIDE

 A BEAUTIFUL RIDE 

My body is a chariot 

My mind is King 

My soul is the driver 

Controlling the swing 

I humbly ride around 

Listening to inner voice 

Ignoring the din 

And the outside noise 

Horses driving are seven 

purity ,peace ,power ,knowledge,

love ,happiness and bliss

Their energy is great 

They are souls true mates 

No accident till date 

I humbly drive around 

Loosing myself first 

To quench my thirst 

Reins are restricted 

Mind is a witness 

Passing thoughts are watched 

Sometimes ducked and dodged

I  humbly  ride around 

Holding  the reins  right 

Guided by the divine light 

I look up to feel HIS grace 

Reins held tight restrict all desires 

Lust greed attachment ego rage 

The five outer worldly fires 

Free from this tempting cage 

Content with what I acquire 

I  humbly ride around ,

Trying not to be  aroused 

By any sight  or sound 

Each weather is like spring 

There is happiness in everything 

No enemy  no  bee sting 

Everywhere love  is abound 

Surrounded by a joyful  sound 

I humbly  ride around 

Feeling HIS endless blessings 

So caring and  profound 

God has changed my vision

All I perceive here glistens 

I see myself in others 

We are brothers and sisters 

We are all children of  God 

I humbly ride around 

Spreading love and smiles 

Over miles and miles 

 God let this trance continue 

Let it not break in two 

Bless me to enjoy this bliss 

Love laugh dance and sing 

Revel this divine soul kiss 

Let me humbly ride around 

Savor  the beauty abound 

Life is truly wonderful !!!

Thank you God 

This ride is so very beautiful !!!

OCEAN OF HAPPINESS OF MY MIND मेरे मन का सुख सागर

 O God bless me !!!

In the ocean of happiness of my mind 

I want to drown and sleep peacefully primed 

I searched and searched for you and cried 

It's been ages now and still you manage to hide 

Birth and death are  illusions of your creation 

Where can I find you Lord to bless me with salvation 

With out  your grace O lord  their is no wisdom 

I crave  for your love  and blessings to feel wholesome 

How not to feel disturbed any more by Joy and sorrow 

Only when I find you will i feel liberated from tomorrow 

My mind yearns to be lost in eternal  bliss and peace 

The soul submerged silently in you to dissolve and cease 

O God bless me !!!

In the ocean of happiness of my mind 

I want to drown and sleep peacefully primed

GODS SAYS "I LOVE YOU" IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS

Sitting under the tree with flowers and  birds 

in silence ,did you hear what I heard ? 

My heart leaped with joy and stirred 

Do you want to know those magic words ? 

" I love you "

Trees sway joyfully to and fro in the breeze 

"I love you "they rhythmically chime with ease 

Flowers red ,yellow , purple and blue 

In a melodious chorus sing " I love you " 

Birds flying above in the clear sky tweet 

"I love you dear soul ,you are so sweet " 

Clouds glide elegantly merging with the  blue sky 

Whisper enchantingly "I love you " as they sail by 

River  flows gracefully meandering around 

Chanting merrily"I love you " in a soft sound 

The mountains echo loudly far and wide 

" I love you ,never ever leave my side " 

Warm sun rays embrace and kiss the peaks 

Murmuring "I love you ,you are unique " 

Our loved ones hugs and the squeeze of their hands 

Sparkle in their eyes is unspoken "I love you"unplanned

Friends shaking hands and greeting "how do you do?"

Are really smiling and expressing  "I love you " 

I see God in everything here and everywhere as I pray 

It's HIS message"I love you" that they lovingly convey 

Our Awesome God  never fails to remind us every day 

I love you ..I love you .in so many different ways !!!

Yes this is HIS love I can feel it ! 

Gods love comes to us from different mediums 

unfortunately we are sometimes quite blind to it........

I do know that  It would be hard  for me to convince about  this to some .Yet for those who are truly devoted to HIM  it is not very difficult to perceive HIS love .I witness love all around me here .God is the greatest lover of mankind and all his creations .

Sometimes I wonder which is greater in magnitude HIS love for us or our love for HIM  ? On second thoughts  I feel  our love can never equal the love HE has for us.

Despite  the changing  seasons of happiness and sorrow HE remains in our heart and is always  there to carry us in his lap .When we are in pain his love gives us strength and courage to  be able to bear it till it passes away .Ups 

and downs of the material world are our own Karmas and  have nothing  to do with HIS love for us .HE is very impartial as we learn from Bhagwad Gita 9.29 

samo 'ham sarva-bhutesu 

na me dvesyo 'sti na priyah 

ye bhajanti tu mam bhaktya 

mayi te tesu capy aham

I am present equally in all beings. 

There is no one hateful or dear to Me. 

But, those who worship Me with devotion, 

they are with Me and I am also with them.

We should not look for HIS love in fulfilling our materialistic desires. HE loves us as HE is always giving us wisdom to set us free from maya,its illusion,its bondage ,ways to self-realization and to  love others the same way as HE 

loves us all .

Sant Kabir says 

Preeti jo laagi ghuli gayi, paight  gayi man maanhi.

Rom rom piu-piu karahee , mukha ki sardha  naahi. 

I am in love ...Love has captured my being in such a way as if it is melted in me and has entered my mind and heart 

Not only my mouth but every pore of my body is thirsty like a bird
