Lamp Light

I took my old lamp
Many of its parts are rusted
Not used regularly and not dusted
Not have enough oil

I lighted it and kept on an old table
It could kill the darkness nearby
Often my lamp seems to loose the battle
Darkness, along with a gentle breeze attacked it..

Alas... I thought the lamp died
My hut's wall cannot keep its light inside
Darkness attacked it from all four corners
Now they got dew drops as their friend..

I liked Breeze, dew, cool weather,
often I thought they are a relief
But they don't like
My old lamp and its fading light..

പ്രാർത്ഥന

                                           പ്രാർത്ഥന  നമ്മുടെ ജീവിതത്തിൽ മിക്ക സന്ദര്ഭങ്ങളിലും ഒരു പക്ഷെ എല്ലാ ദിവസവും കേൾക്കുകയും പറയുകയും  ചെയ്യുന്ന ഒരു പദമാണ് 'പ്രാർത്ഥന'. എന്നാൽ എന്താണ് പ്രാർത്ഥന എന്നത് വ്യക്തത ഇല്ലാത്ത ഒരു സമസ്യയാണ് നമുക്ക് പലപ്പോഴും. പ്രാർത്ഥനയെ പറ്റി പല എഴുത്തുകളും വായിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്, പല പ്രഭാഷണങ്ങളും കേട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്. പക്ഷെ ഒരു വ്യക്തമായ  ഉത്തരം  ഇതുവരെ  ലഭിച്ചിട്ടില്ല എന്നതാണ് സത്യം. എന്റെ പാർത്ഥന അനുഭവമാണ് ഞാനെഴുതുന്നതു, അത് എല്ലാവര്ക്കും സ്വീകാര്യമായിക്കൊള്ളണമെന്നുമില്ല. കാരണം പ്രാർത്ഥനക്കു ഓരോ വ്യക്തിക്കും അവരവരുടെ സ്വന്തം നിർവചനം നൽകാൻ കഴിയും. ഒരു പക്ഷെ  അതാണ് പ്രാർത്ഥനയുടെ സൗന്ദര്യവും പവിത്രതയും. പാർത്ഥന എന്നത് ഒരു അന്വേഷണമാണ്, യാത്രയാണ്. സ്വന്തം ആഴങ്ങളിലേക്കുള്ള ഒരു ഊളിയിടൽ, അവിടെയാണ് പ്രാർത്ഥനയുടെ തുടക്കം. സ്വയം അറിയാൻ, കാണാൻ, കേൾക്കാൻ, ഒ...

LAMPLIT

One foggy morning of a December, I couldn't remember the year, may be three or four years back....I was feeling so lazy to get up and of course.......forcing myself to sleep more. Don't know how much time I lie down.... I have Opened my eyes.....a very thin.... clear ....perfect nice beam of light is falling near on my bed .....I looked at the beam.... an oval was formed at the point where it touched ......that spot is also lighted up.......yes...light can do it....even the thinnest of the beam..... I stretched my hand towards the spot.....just to touch it with my finger.....and I touched...... Amazing......my finger is glowing..... it is spreading to my other fingers also....then ...all over my palm.....hands....all over my body....lightened and lightened Light.............. from where it comes....??? I wondered..... I don't know......

My Purpose

"You have a duty to perform. Do anything else, do a number of things, occupy your time fully, and yet, if you do not do this task, all your time will have been wasted" - Rumi What is the purpose of my life ? I asked this question many times to myself. More than four decades I have been living in this planet with the mercy of the ones who have been rightly identified their duty....and I should be definitely ashamed in asking this question for all these years and left with no answer.  But I am not giving up.....Better late than never...am still in search of an answer.  I am not sure about the results...but I have to continue my search... Millions might have lived and died in this earth in utter disappointment without knowing their purpose. Living the whole life in pain and misery !!! Living without knowing your purpose....Living away from your Creator....Also making the life of the people around us also miserable...This is called SIN....? I don't know.... I read some w...
