The Discovery


Today we embark on the journey taken never before, and while we know there is little we can do about what's going on, we are restless. 

We are looking forward to the time when this will end the old normal returns 
There might be no old normal left any more. 
Nothing gone is ever the same again. 
A new normal awaits us. 
When? 
Is for nature to say, 
Only if you can listen to her.

I've always believed that my perception of time, our definition of urgency and laid-back is very different from that of time's itself. We're but a small part of earth's existence, and even smaller part of the universe itself.
Consider this and you might want to step away from your me-filled lives and give some time to parallel thought process.

Nature operates out of a different definition of urgency and an altogether altered way of transition to new times.
No matter how much you think about it, it will always turn out be planned and step-after-step in hindsight. 
Even though it doesn’t seem that way when it happens. 


Shutdown seems crazy enough, since it’s happened the first time with us. We do not know where this is taking us, and honestly we do not know what to do with the newfound discovery. The discovery of non-hurried existence.

When I look at my family struggling with the same discovery, I cannot help but realize that we've actually stopped living the life of slow. 
The many things which have taken shape in the past 15 odd years, have made us dissociate from the quintessential existence & importance of slow in our lives. 
Slow is the real amrit. Slow is always around.

When you look out of your window, you listen to life which you've ignored. The life you realized was important, but never believed in. To listen to yourself breathe in these sounds is like consuming manna, serene.

There are few who've started living in this parallel thought process, while some continue their journey otherwise. Life is much different for a lot of us, our lens' all unique.

In Pursuit

While the whole world waits, we pursue... This time has given us an unasked-for freedom, to chose what to do with it. We have, gained some & lost some. We have, availability of time & lack of physical mobility. We have, a difficult decision to make. While many are in denial of it all. Where there are hoards whiling away their moments, waiting for the old normal, in pursuit of the past, there are also some who are willing to do away with the thought of the bygone. The acceptance of change(also read as "new") is the first step in many directions it brings. There are those who have contacted old chums, one's who they've always wanted to go on with. The fast lanes they were in wouldn't allow it. Now is the realization, than a mere intention to get in touch with old pals is enough to do so. There are those who have loved & always ran to the hills and the beaches, hating their 4 walls, the fast currents of their rapid-ful river of a life bl...

Re-Align

Look around you... Do you smell the sunlight on your skin? Can you hear the wind move your hair? Does the color of the sky mean something? It's the world calling, it's asking you to pick up. Pick up the call which you've otherwise been blinded to, by the rush of the hour. Ever wondered why it always feels good when you do nothing while you are around nature? When you sometimes take that much needed pause, in an otherwise always playing life? It's a calling, to your inner self. Come now, it says, I've been waiting to give you the gift of eternal peace. Which you've sold to acquire oodles of restlessness. Our biggest foe today is the never ending pursuit of restlessness. The way of life we've been living ever since we can think of, is designed to give us only more of this restlessness. The real pace of life, and the true meter of time is calibrated by nature. While we can only think that we are in control of our time. Material life end u...
