RUDAALI: FILM REVIEW

GUIDING LIGHT

Guide me like a lighthouse,
illuminate my path.
Remove stagnant self doubts,
vanquish all unseen wraths .

Downpours of great wisdom,
come to narrate this life.
Cascade with warm bright beams,
that will live in my eyes.

Reflective ever free,
gleam sun rays everyday.
Flow like the serene sea,
at night with peaceful waves.

Help me feel self assured,
as held fears disappear.
Make my heart beat so pure,
my soul swiftly flies clear.

Shiny star in the sky,
twinkles with endless thoughts.
Capture wishes thrown high,
with pure intentions caught.

“217th” Stories

***One day death went to visit a man and said: “Today will be your last day of living.”

“But I am not ready.” The man replied.

The death said: “Sorry to say that your name was at the top of my today’s list.”

The man calmly rejoined: “Oh, ok. No problem. Let’s have a coffee together, before my death.”

“No harm in that.” The Death responded.

The man secretly put some sleeping pills in Death’s coffee and handed her the cup.

The Death finished the coffee and went to deep sleep.

The man took the Death’s list and erased his name from the top part of the inventory and put it at the bottom.

The death woke up and said: “You were very kind to me today. To pay my appreciation to you I will start my duty from the bottom of the list.”

HAPPY BUDDHA PURNIMA

Harbans's avatarINNER THOUGHTS

BUDDHA PURNIMA

Started his earthy journey in the year 563 B.C. to King Sudhodhana & Queen Maya
His birth name was Sidharatha
Born in Lumbini in the Kingdom of Kapilavastu in Nepal
Wherein he had his upbringing
With love and affection profusely overflowing
From childhood itself, he was surcharged with emotions.


He used to feel much pain
When he saw people in utter pain
Hence the King kept him at his aloof in residence
Profuse with a lot of opulence
And all the comforts which a person needs for existence.


Prince Sidhartha was married to princess Yasodhara
So that his son remains busy in the palace life itself
Just cut off from the outside existence
Filled with pain and sufferings
As his father wanted him to be the king and rule his kingdom after him
But the seers predicted that Sidharatha would be spiritual oriented.


A Buddha – is the…

THE POWER OF NAMASTE 🙏

SaaniaSparkle 🧚🏻‍♀️'s avatarSaania's diary - reflections, learnings, sparkles

During my first few days at the University of Washington, I remember meeting so many new people. I vividly recall meeting a group of international students from different corners of the globe at a get-to-know-each-other board games event. At first, we were all hesitant and unsure about how to interact with one another given our diverse backgrounds. However, as we played a whimsical round of Scrabble and chit-chatted for a bit, at the end of the day we all wanted to blend in to feel appreciated and loved. So, what does this tell us about human nature?

Getting a little bit in touch with my roots, here’s the most beautiful thing I see in Hinduism: Namaste! This one gracious word reminds us that:

“We are the same. And we are whole.”

As a little girl, I remember watching people join their hands close together with a gentle bow and…

I WILL LOVE YOU UNCONDITIONALLY

Go and stand in front of a mirror right now and tell yourself that you will love yourself unconditionally no matter what.

This is my decision to unconditionally love myself. I adore both the woman I have become and the girl I used to be. In the end, there is actually nothing wrong with me. To some extent, all the negativity, bullying, lost friendships, hatred, and judgement had nothing to do with me, but nobody was to blame. I can now see that. I felt like I was missing something, and the experience broke me. I wasn’t strong enough to stand up for myself, whether it was because of how I witnessed my mother’s upbringing or a lack of confidence. I was unaware that being who I am is OK. The majority of the time now, I see a brighter version of myself. The way I am is amazing. After all, I am lovely.

I am aware that I am no longer required to defend myself to anybody who will pretend to listen. I am aware that I don’t need to inform others of my anxiety and despair in the hopes that they would be understanding. No, I don’t have to tell you why I act the way I do. I don’t have to be too pleasant or kind to you. I owe you nothing. However, I do have a responsibility to provide for myself on a daily basis with a secure and loving home within my flesh. Even when others don’t give it to me especially when they don’t I do owe myself love, gratitude, and respect. I’ve learned how to comfort myself, so I don’t need somebody to save me or make me feel better. I am happy to be here. Of course, it’s wonderful to be surrounded by good people who accept me. It’s simple to miss people that do notice you and love you for it when you don’t love yourself or know who you are at your heart.

Remember, the most comfortable option isn’t usually the best option for you. Sometimes you have to get out of your comfort zone. Sometimes you have to take a chance on yourself, even if it’s terrifying and uncomfortable. Yes, you could lose something lovely by taking the riskier option, but you could also get something fantastic.

I Will Love You Unconditionally
