A Shame on You

To  remain hidden physically
covered by clothes,

To remain hidden characteristically
Wearing a mask,

To  remain hidden financially,
With lockers and passwords,

To remain hidden spiritually,
Not knowing your own self,

Is a Shame  on You.

The Nursery Rhyme For All Ages

Much awaited results declared.
Saints and sinners failed in LKG:
Repeat it.  To have it.
P for pleasure. P for Possess
P for pain. P for peace.

Pleasure, the brightest Sun of Sons,
Enthralling humanity by splendor,
Started its journey, from
P for presence, to
A for Absence.

Giant-sized Money with infinite Comforts,
Cleopatra-sized Women with infinite variety,
Hitler-sized Power with infinite Freedom,
Omar-sized Wine-falls with infinite kick,
Are Gates of Heaven to P.

Die to live or live to die?
Rest to sweat or sweat to rest?
Have to lose or lose to have?
Run to reach or reach to run?

The wise are fools, the rich are poor,
The literate are illiterate.  Men are women.
Nature is for sale.  The beginning is for end.
Violence is for silence. The worst are the best.

Old Houses, Sick residents,
With withered dreams, coloured fruits,
Vexed, with fixed owls, mixed fear,
Jealous of busy bees.

Chased by the denied, locked by the opened,
Found by the lost, finished by the started,
The Whirlpool of C, ever spinning,
The Master Key U, submerged, waiting for.

Quotes On Change and love by Lao Tzu

"Try to change it,   You will ruin it.  Try to hold it,   You will lose it."

        - Lao Tzu, the Chinese philosopher

Interpretation:
Freedom is the birth right of any individual.  It is the soul of individuality.  Like a bird and a tree, a child has to grow up in its own accord.  In the name of education, religion, morality, culture, when we try to change a child, we destroy its individuality, its freedom and natural expression and response to life.  Eventually man is not what he is, but how others wanted him to be.

You will not lose anything that you do not hold.  Loss follows "hold".  Man tries at his best to hold but loses the youth he is gifted with, the money he saves, the property he owns, the relations he owns and the like.  When the breeze comes in, enjoy it.  If you close the door to arrest it, you will miss it.  When somebody loves, love.  If you try to possess them, you will lose them one day.  No hold, no loss.

Quotes On Mind by Lao Tzu

"The usefulness of a pot comes from its emptiness."
-   Lao Tzu, the Chinese philosopher

Interpretation:
     A pot which is already full of something is useless, nothing can be poured or kept in further.   Similarly, a mind which is already full of something, is incapable of receiving anything which is useful.  Once the pot is empty, its usefulness begins.  Once the mind is without thoughts, the consciousness begins, revelations occur, intuition arises, insight happens, realization of truth takes place.
