I am privileged (poem)

Thank you God,

for giving me shelter,

for providing me clothes,

for blessing me with food,

for honoring me with health,

for showering me with family,

when so many people in world,

have to survive in cold nights,

have no clothes on their bodies,

have hunger pangs while they sleep,

have bodies with extreme disabilities,

and have no family or have sick children.

Thank You God for this awareness and gratitude.

Aum Tat Sat (God is Truth)

Thank you God for the wonderful morning (poem)

When I was in IIT Delhi,
sometimes I would drop by a friends house,
to be greeted by her father reading the news paper,
and I would listen to his calm, healing words (in pure Hindi) about God.

This morning, after 1.5 decades,
I called him up and experienced the same soothness,
he talked with love, contentment and complete surrender to God,
and my soul sensed the coolness, a traveller (feels) under a shade in Sun.
