A Mother For All!


An Albanian Lady by birth, a catholic nun by belief, an Indian citizen by work but An Angel of Humanity To the whole world...." The Blessed Mother Teresa"....

All great things have been said and done for this amazing woman whom I cannot get off my mind ever since my childhood. I have been reading about her the day I was in class 5th when I first came across her story as a chapter in my school syllabus.. as when I grew up I tried to find more about her and endlessly have read a lot about her work, and the way she served humanity.

It is an amazing journey that she has treaded in this world and the path she walked upon has left the footprints for every individual of her times or of the coming times to think upon that how can one be so selflessly compassionate and dedicated to the cause of love and peace?!!

She has sent an extraordinary example of serving humanity by crossing the borders of religion, caste, race, countries, traditions etc that we humans have created to to distinguish.She impersonated compassion, love, human values and service. Her irrespective attitude towards the troubles on the path she was walking has made her immortal and has given a chance to survival of the weakest against the laws of survival of the fittest of Darwin. She has enriched the life of the weakest, dying and the unwanted by her love and compassion. She has brought peace to every soul she passed by.. Her shadow was sufficient to create the magic of life.. I fall short of words in describing her here... rather I would like to quote her here about love "f we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it"..

My heartiest respects to Angel of Humanity on the occasion of her Birth Centenary year

Metamorphosis: A mircale of life

Metamorphosis: a process involved in changing the dimensions, meaning, goals, aim, personality, outlook and over all outcome of an individual. The word scientifically used shows a change or stages of life of a creature where it transforms it body from one form to another. A metamorphosis takes place in every individuals life right from the day one till the last day. The way the process proceeds takes a different course in every individuals life, for some its overnight and radicle for some its gradual and evolutionary.

A butterfly evolves from a larva; who knows that a grey coloured slimy looking creature will evolve into the most beautiful creation of the almighty. The course of development decides how the outcome will be ( though being outcome driven is not so supportive of the theory of self evolution). The major changes that takes place in an individual during what we call his experiences of life are deep rooted in the psyche he develops during his larval stages ( infancy).

Every individual has ample and equal amount of opportunities; none is less in the grey matter content but the correct acceptance of the fact of being able to be novel lacks in the one who deems to be static. We all know that "change is the only constant thing in life"; though we ignore the changes and dont adapt according to them. The miracle called metamorphosis takes place in altogether different way in every individuals life, but the need is to realise, utilize and optimize the changed parameters. The day an orderly balance is achieved in the system consisting of the soul and the universe the entropy will tend to zero and the individual will be relieved of all worldly stress : we can name it MIRACLE.. of Metamorphosis..

Time: Ages and stages



A wise acts according to the age, a fool acts according to the stage.

we often come across great personalities who have been called the "yug purusha"- the man of the era (age). seeing their journey in becoming the immortal forever a special pattern has been strikingly simple and similar. One can site examples from origin of life to present super fantabulous fast time age be it Lord Rama or Jesus or Prophet for today it be His holiness Dalai Lama or Mother Teresa. They all are timeless and they have a fourth dimension in themselves which makes us say that it was there Era when we mortals were on the earth. What has made them immortal is the need that they addressed in the time when no one could pay attention to the prevailing sufferings. The age can be named after such great people giving their more than life contribution to humanity. The light they throw in the darkness, the power they induce in the prayers of the sufferers , the calmness they bring about in the people so that they can rest at peace one fine day. Their mortal form may have vanished from this earth but the spirit is still alive; Christ was crucified and not the Christ spirit. The lessons to the mortals were more profoundly understood only after they could get themselves aware of the age they lived in.

Moreover, contrastingly the world has seen blunderers too. They acted in one act play: like Adolf Hitler, Like Edi Amin tyranny personified.. back in the past we named them as demons now they are more human of the form, The terrorist of the millennium May be called as Osama Bin Laden who has become the synonym of terror but the spirit is weak enough to lift the human souls to the height of agression and let them rule the world. Their spirits are not that powerful eventhough they are acting in accordance with the stage they set up. The end of the one act play of these blunderers is all devised and designed by them and hence it acts like a stage where the Age rules and the stage becomes merely unimportant to be remembered. There have been stories we all would have heard from out parents/ grand parents about their incidences during our freedom struggle of India, they will always cite examples of Mahatama Gandhi and not of Lord Curzon and his tryannical nature.

To immortalize on the psyche of the ones whom we have never met, seen or even thought of them is the quality of wise who are acting according to the Age and make themselves to be the Man Of the Era..

The gist of putting this here is that choice is yours: to be aged or to be staged!!??

Time: ageing and spirit


Time is the only thing you can give to your most beloved person, cause you don't get it back!- anonymous

There is on life, we have to live , one day we aim at, one more target achieved, one more goal cleared, one more reward rendered and one more task ready.. The mechanics of a working soul today is some how placed in the same way everywhere. The day you are born; your parents start thinking about you; savoring dreams for future, nurturing you in way to achieve the exceptionally best things from rest of the crowd of the same generation. The same day ageing begins, its not about years that count in your life; its about how well you manage the spirit of life.
Spirit of life involved your zest to live one more time, living 1000 lives in one life time is possible.. its just that time and age are to be shielded with spirit you live with.. You can grow old yet can remain a child with a child like spirit.. Every man has a child in him, let not it die because true living spirit is living it to fullest without worrying about tomorrow...

Love: a gesture, affection, emotion, feeling, blissful, eternal, unexplainable, impersonate, divine.... I can go on describing the vastness of the word to the extent that I might not come to an end even after I lose my worldly self. There are very many ways,thoughts, actions and more words expressing Love, for each one the way is different but still it is perfect to befit into the lives of two individuals.

Some say it is a bird, some say it is just nothing or some say it is mere fulfillment of mutual desires, but what is important is that it exists between two individuals creating all the magic which normally is absent in formalities. Love is often described as strength and more often described as weakness of an individual; the point of view of presenting is varying with degree of freedom of usage of the word.

Love for family, love for friends, love for soulmate, love for God, love for inanimate things and love for everything else, but surely classification doesn't stop here..I find it unfair to classify types of love or even to describe the qualities of love because it is after all LOVE...
