Are You Happy ?




Voice : Are you happy ? 

Me : Is that a trick question ? 

Voice : Just a simple question

Me : You don't ask simple questions. 

Voice : Haha

Me : To answer You, I am very happy right now. Why wouldn't I be - with a warm cup of tea, silence all around, melody of himalayan flute playing in the background and heart warming views ..

Voice : So if all this is taken away from you, will you still remain happy ? 

Me : Even my tea goes ?      

Voice : Yes, even your tea is taken away ….along with everything else. 

Me : With everything taken away from me, I think I will have a problem. I think anyone would !

Voice : Not everyone. 

Me : Not everyone ?  

Voice : Not for those who live in self-sustaining, unbounded and eternal joy that springs from within. But, this quest will remain elusive for those in pursuit of happiness that is dependant on things that are transient...and this even includes your own form. 

Me : How can one be conscious of the difference ?   

Voice : Simple. One needs to know the false as false, to know what is Real. 

Me : And God alone is Real !

So every moment, one is taking a step either towards what one 'thinks' will give one happiness or towards 'real happiness'.    

Voice : For real happiness, you don't take steps, you simply choose. 

Real happiness does not delude those who know the difference of 'Being Happy' and 'Being Happy In God’s Love'. Living this difference is everything. 

Then, nothing can be taken away from you because you already have the great fortune to have lost everything in God's Love. 

Me : Wow

Voice : You can find what you are looking for.....but, what ARE you looking for ?

The Last Dance

"The rigours of movement, 
Could not halt my body 
Nor did the bleeding of my feet, 
Or sensation of any pain.  

Swaying and moving unceasingly,
Music played for my dancing feet 
Overcoming physical impossibility, 
I wasn't in my body.

It was the descent of energy upon me, 
 Breaking me into rigours of movement 
My being reverberated with intensity, 
I knew this frequency. 
  
With entire existence within my breath, 
Nothing was to stop me today  
Moving to the rhythm of celestial music,   
Smile and tears made their way.

Resonating within louder and louder, 
My entire being vibrated with His call, 
Facing total annihilation in this trance 
I was in bliss of my last dance."
