~ Robin Jani

Flowers are perfect visible and living symbols representing some of the fundamental feelings (Love, Joy, Bliss, and Peace) responsible for our existence. These fundamental feelings are now being understood by regulated objects. When we watch 2 imaginary characters indulged on screen, we realize “what is love?” When we read fictions, we come to know about “Joy” and “Bliss”. But between these regulated objects, we gradually lose learning from nature – the very pure form! We don’t feel excited when a tree wants to start a conversation, when a flower wants to sing a love song or when wind describes joyfulness.

With so much ’I’, we look at the nature and we never learn anything from flowers, trees, rivers and miss lifetime chances to sense love, peace, joy or divinity.

Go, sing with the flowers! Nurture them, grow up with them!

~ Trailblazer.

Many mysteries a man will understand but to understand love, he has to experience mother’s love first.
Many achievements a woman will achieve but to understand fulfillment, she has to transform herself into mother.

Our world’s progress would not have been possible without woman’s maternal instinct and selfless love. Honor your mother as God. Give highest respect to women in society for their precious contributions to the world. Cherish maternal instinct on which life runs eternally.

Journey from nothingness to be a being,
She was the only guiding force.
Thereafter, first step in this world,
Her welcome smile was the only motivation to live.
From day 1 to Today and till last breath,
She is the torch bearer.

Mother.

Conversation from backyard

Free dive from the sky, was lonely and painful.

Take off from self and crossing unknown winds was not so easy.

But, out of nowhere, petal of lovely flower suddenly came in my way..

Saved me, gave new form to my existence.

With doubts, I wondered and asked:

“Was it selfish act or selfless? Why did you save me? Why does someone ever help someone without reason?”

Petal answered:

“Dear water, did you ever answer same question I ask repeatedly since I was mere seed beneath the soil and you nurtured me for ages? No, because you have no answer, in fact, there is no reason exists for any selfless love. Your existence as droplet is my gratitude for all selfless love you poured in my nurturance. Let’s enjoy life.”

Not only love but rest of the pure human emotions has no seasonal effects. If emotion is pure and selfless, it blossoms at any day, any time. Giving, sharing, and happiness all go together, without affected by seasons.

Laila – Majnu Story

It is reported that Majnu said,”To know Laila you will need the eyes of Majnu.”

The king of his area called Majnu and said. ”You are mad! I know your Laila – an ordinary girl, jet black – nothing special. I feel sorry for you, so here are twelve girls from my palace – they are the most beautiful women of the country. You can choose any one you like. Seeing you cry, my heart also cries.”

Majnu looked at them and said,”There is no Laila among them. They cannot even be compared to Laila, they are not even worth the dust of her feet.”

The king said,”Majnu, you are mad…!”

Majnu said,”That may be so, but I must tell you one thing: to see Laila you will need the eyes of Majnu.”

Majnu is right. To see the beauty of trees you need an eye for art – there is no other proof. If one wants to know love, one will need the heart of a lover – there is no other proof.

Butchers see skin, the beloved see being;
Skin is superficial, being is eternal.
With butcher inside, one cannot canvass beauty;
And with ghetto inside, one cannot realize beauty.
