WHEN A DESERT NIGHT UNLEASHES THE DARKNESS WITHIN YOU..


In the wilderness of the desert,cold freezing winds gushing through,on a turbulent yet strangely quiet night..the quietness of the kind which echoes through the ears.moon shining down through the tent door from the sky where stars are brighter than ever before..Im lying in a blanket all wrapped up.Letting thoughts take over the night from here on.Distant folk songs filling the vaccuum,their amplitude rising with every wave of wind thats strikes my tent roof and then disappearing into the silence of the depth of the night.Maybe some soldier is playing his radio loud or is it some local vehicle passing by on its way to destiny..i wonder if this is the timelessness.is this what they have been saying all along ,a solution to finding the eternity ..
In the wilderness of desert,i lie silent and still ,as if my single move would beware the winds of my presance.i lie calm and awake.Far far away from the places where men are busy struggling and women gossip all the time,where lights are too luminous to let the darkness of the night reach my heart,where greed and lust prevail and corrupt the purest of hearts that seem helpless against momentum of time that sweep them along.Far far away from that place where LIVES ARE TRADED FOR MONEY OR SECURITY,WHERE GOD EXISTS NO MORE ESOTERICALLY,WHERE FATES ARE DECIDED ON THE BASIS OF ASSUMPTIONS. I am faraway from such lands.And strangely enough ,I feel secure in this barrenness here that is dominated not by people but the One.Oneness prevails here.everything happening around me right now is a perfect trumpet played in a uniquely harmonious way.
'IS THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE DESERT TONIGHT,A MIRROR IMAGE OF MY SOUL?IS THE WILDERNESS OUTSIDE STRINKINGLY SIMILAR TO THE DESERTNESS INSIDE?'...
Or is it just my inner state that is at peace and harmony with God and His ways? Maybe everything that fills the air in the desert exists in the land of people too .then is it just the tranquility of the moment that convinces ,my heart, of my God..?
So many questions ,so many thoughts.Sigh,how much more to fight for what i already fought..maybe ill leave the answers to my lord and try to forget the faithless frauds.Maybe i should stop here lest my mind should handle the TRUTH.Maybe its better to put all the 'maybies' away..and call it a day.and live in this moment of serenity that life doesnt very often bless us with.
in the wilderness of the desert,a distant sound of a lost bird weep...sigh! stop thinking your mind out 'Miim' ..its time to sleep.
in the wilderness of the desert that resembles a heart....

  6. well honestly i cannot comment on them since i havent researched much on their theories.but taking God as a metaphysical force with only one aim that is to run the universe that we perceive and limiting the good aspects of faith and religion as something that is more of a humanly need to maintain societies and our world is not justified.limiting God to only exoteric force is not justified..but ofcourse since i havent studying them much only heard their theories from other people,i might be terribly wrong in deciphering these great philosophers...

  7. my philosophy and my thinking is inspired by Shams of tabrez and Rumi..in their philosphies have i found that God is a force that resides within us.in our actions,our virtues..searching out our souls is the path where God lives.God is both exoteric and esoteric force.i would recomment you 'the anonymous' to read 40 rules of divine love that Shams of tabrez followed.read them one by one and research on evry rule!think about every single rule he has laid down and you might understand only then what i am trying to say.

  8. regarding my previous statement that faithlessness prevails beyond philosophy!! its a huge debate and ill write an article about it.how and why i think that its better to think within the limits of heart and philosophy than depend solely on mind and logic ..

  9. i agree with ur some points,i hv read 40 rules of lv, and annonymous name is zomer.

  10. i hv read them and i thnk they r trying to say same thing but in different ways

    ReplyDelete
  11. one of the rules is that ' God created every person through His reflection.but every person has difference in opinion.imposing your thought over other's is challenging God's creation'...ways are different,views too...but the source and the destiny is the same 'Oneness'!

  12. u agree on tis k evry one preceives things diff, nobdy can impose thier beliefs on smbdy else. repitive injury to a human soul turn sme towards divine love and some make them look for love for wisdom. those who r trying to find reasons and logics do nt necessarily take thm to atheism road.

  13. yes ..agreed upon! and so i said in my article 'dream followers or dreams hollowers' that maturity of mind can exist with a dreamful heart..when you remove heart,feelings,faith and intuitions from your decisions in life,what remain behind is only mind and all its logics..and if God were to be recognized only through logic and reason,then justify all the miracles that happened in the lives of the prophets!you dont put logic in them.you just believe in your faith..right?

  14. LIVES ARE TRADED FOR MONEY OR SECURITY,WHERE GOD EXISTS NO MORE ESOTERICALLY,WHERE FATES ARE DECIDED ON THE BASIS OF ASSUMPTIONS.
