All I need to do is, "Thank you God"

I get upset when my 8 year old son,
refuses to get me the oven from storage,
so that I can warm up yesterday's leftovers,
of the vegan pizza to create space in the fridge.

Something tells me, I need to stop,
for it may not be the best thing to eat,
as the first thing in the morning till lunch,
then, I relax on sensing that its my God's signal.

On March 4th, 2012, I saw, what I can only see in India (poem)

I was in Delhi and after a refreshing nap,
I got up, made prashad, Gurudware-wala-halwa.

I had invited all the helpers (with families),
to a local sweet-snack shop in the neigborhood.

I reached the Aggarwaal's shop with that halwa,
along with my nephew(13) & son(9) of our press-wali.

The youngest one, explored the shop thoroughly,
and then stated "chuski with blue, green, yellow & red".

There was a joy in his eyes, as he saw those colors,
pouring onto the ice ball; he licked it, watched it, licked..

Once he was done, he saw my nephew eating Lays chips,
when asked, if he wanted that, he said, "...but I had 1 thing."

On hearing, that he could eat more than 1 thing today,
he simply followed my nephew in eating, Maaza, rasmalai, golgappa...

The young cooking lady showed up, dressed up with makeup,
and relished 4 rasmalais, maaza, golgappas and held onto 1 Maaza togo.

The cleaning lady came in, and was lost in deciding the order,
for she had no idea what tasted what, & the cooking lady guided her through.

Then, arrived, driver with his newly married dressed-up bride,
he was in his party clothes with a lot of pride and she shy, in her saree & jewels.

Both of them ate very modestly with the wife letting husband decide,
but, it was joyful for me to serve, the people who had served me & are serving my family.

Once they left, I stayed in the market with my nephew to buy Holi colors,
and when I shared the prashad with the shopkeeper, some strangers stepped forward to ask for it.

Now, thats something possible only in India, where people trust stranger's prashad,
ask for it with complete faith and eat it after touching it onto their forehead, saying their God's name.

Who says my India is no longer the land of spirituality?

With God...(poem)

each desire transmutes into Creativity,
every fear leads towards Empowerment,

all judgements purify into Compassion,
entire separation dissolves within Oneness.

My friends say, I am glowing whenever...(poem)

I have accepted my "wrong desires",

I have walked through my "biggest fears",

I have said a prayer replacing my "judgement",

holding tight onto or just thanking my dear God.

Distinguishing matters (poem)

Listen to the commitment,
and not the noise.

Think from compassion,
and not from desire.

Act in Light,
and not in darkness.

Speak with faith,
and not with fears.

Sooner or later...(poem)

Love,
always wins.

Commitment,
always manifests.
