The Insider !!!

When a baby is born, he is unaware about its environment. He is aware of only one thing and the feeling of 'love'-with which he is being held and cared with. This was the only feeling that he had as a fetus. The womb of the mother is dark and the darkness is nothing but quite and black!!! it is fearful and mysterious. Still, the baby lived there for nine months, it was his home; cossy and comfy yet dark which is not cossy or comfy. 

How parallel!!!

In the past three days, I was forced to think and ponder about this earth, its natural habitat (including us), its creation and the divinity of its creator by the nature itself. But that very moment, i was afraid to return to the frying pan of misery from the laps of tranquil nature into the concrete city life. The woods were dark, quite, mysterious but yet they provided the serenity and tranquility to the mind and soul. It was like meditation; calm and soothing. The hut where we were staying had a barbed fence running throughout the large area of our hosts property with pine growing everywhere. It was beautiful.The sunrise and sunsets were unexplainably clean and orange ! Pure nature...Ahhhh, Bliss.

It was one of the nights while i was enjoing hot mug of tea in the freezing cold with no lights except that of the bonefire, thanks to the load shedding. Suddenly, i heard a voice... as someone was calling my attention. I thought probably due to silence i am imagining things but at the same time I felt if i was sitting in a roller coaster and about to fall right out of my chair...I concentrated again...was I asleep!! No I was not, I could see the pine trees in front of me, tall, majestic standing with their grandeur as the Kings of that Night. I again felt trickling down my ankles but it was stuck somewhere under my shins...i could feel the thrust to give-up to that force but my mind was still quite alert. 

Of course, it was not a normal condition !!! 

The ghush reached my feet while i was firmly sitting in my chair. I heard the voice again, "do you like this??" 


My heart wanted to say yes but i wasn't still sure whom i was communicating with !!! Swiftly, I got the answer in the same voice, "I am your soul" and then there was silence for good 3-5 minutes.

"I can hear my soul "... I was thinking, can this be true!!!! ... i heard it again, "I am your soul". Now i was sure, smiling within myself i exclaimed ...."Oh Wooooow, I so wanted to do this for long ... and here is my chance!!!!"


My wandering didnt stop there and i instantly posed my favorite question, "where do you live; inside my body??"


"Yes, I live in your conscious with a tough neighbor" "A tough neighbor, whose that, is it my unconscious ???" "No, its your ego, my lady." 

"God!!!" I released unconsciously, my right brain was actually conversing with the left brain...how koool...superB... it was awesome!!! Of-course, i am not a prophet or a saint. But every human has the power to connect and listen to its soul and brains but we unfortunately cant hear them in the presence of our very noisy neighbor called EGO.I was reminded of the great OSHO, who said that Ego is the false center that has been nurtured by the society. It drags you from your righteous center to the false center, where you fall pray to its selfish desires and pleadings. The property of Ego in your mind starts growing in circles around your soul, starts the pigmentation of encapsulation of the righteous center by fencing it. 

Once you come near it, everything changes, everything settles again. But now this settling is not done by the society. Now everything becomes a cosmos, not a chaos; a new order arises. But this is no longer the order of the society - it is the very order of existence itself. Therefore, we don't step out at all... thats the comfort our Mind has been given by its pompous neighbor. Why, so that it can rule you and not vice versa. 

After all of these thoughts, suddenly, i was brought back to the light, false light of bulb. And all this unconscious conversation between right and left ended. I was not asleep or unconscious but consciously conscious. I was actually happy to let myself loose after 32 years of boastfulness and deceit created by my false center. 

I am happy that i have traveled inside in my brain and soul to actually feel and see their domains. I have seen the door to step into that world, just like Alice who found the door to the wonderland following Mr.Rabbit. The darkness of those woods became  Mr. Rabbit for me and lead me to the world of my conscious brains. I am loving this and smiling at NASA whose trying to conquer the space and tracking ways in the galaxy and milky ways but have been unable to provide a single map to the inside !!!
