You're my Rainbow

Everyday I walk around in a world full of interwoven dreams, One with drops of joy, clouds of sorrow and an air of intention lying above my head. I'm counting those symmetrical tiles of kaleidoscopic space, thinking of all the colors unseen And then I look up at you, and you bring back every color on my face and in my heart and I realise what life means





You're my Violet, the passion in my soul
You're my Indigo, the deepness of my sky
You're my Blue, the calmness of my sea
You're my Green, the everlasting color of eternity
You're my Yellow, the sunshine when I'm down
You're my Orange, the fun, craziness and beyond
You're my Red, the anger in my eyes
But most importantly, You're my Rainbow, The melangé of all insignia, momentum and the working of my world

:'(

शीशे के घरों में देखो तो पत्थर दिल वाले बसते हैं
जो प्यार को खेल समझते हैं, तोड़ के दिल को हँसते हैं

जब वादे भुलाने से पहले खुद को ही भुलाया जाता था
अब कसमें कितनी झूठी हैं और वाडे कितने कच्चे हैं

अजी प्यार सौदा दिलों का है जो ये व्यापारी क्या जाने
ये प्यार तो अपनी पूजा है दौलत के पुजारी क्या जाने

अपनी हर बात छुपाते है दीवानों के फितारे कच्चे है
जो प्यार को खेल समझते हैं और तोड़ के दिल को हँसते हैं
शीशे के घरों में देखो तोह पठार दिलवाले बसते हैं

How many ppl smiled coz of u 2day?

When we take birth on this planet, we cry and everyone laughs at us! I believe in this, we should do such deeds all through our life that when we die, we should laugh and everyone else should cry... There r numerous ways suggested in our holy scriptures 2 achieve this. But who bothers 2 read all tat in this fast moving world. But i dunno how ppl find time 4 reading volumes of novels n watching episodes of TV soaps. Getting out of this habit is almost impossible. Lemme be frank, it is possible by only those who had immense experience wid all this! My parents say, i hope every parent will tell this to their children, time is precious, dun waste! Time is precious 4 those who hav a materialistic aim. If i set my goal 2 ride a BMW, i ve got only 40 yrs of service 2 rug my bum hard in office, earn tonnes of money by hook or by CROOK! n as i knw, many... many set such targets. Our parents r correct if they/we hav such targets in life. But according 2 me, time has got no meaning, v r all immortal. now as i said immortal, many wud hav opened their mouth wide! seeing me mention "immortal", immediately their mind wud hav added an Armani suit 2 tat existing BMW! thanks 2 our incredible thinking n imagination powers. But keep them in ur pockets! carefully notice tat every offer comes wid conditions apply** :D
A person who hav had enuf experience in this world or who is brought up in a gud environment, wid nice ppl, will learn 2 make others happy. But a solidified steel is always harder! I m not at all talking abt becoming a saint, i m talking abt becoming humans 1st. Have u ever given a thought why u r born? OMG! wat question hav i asked... i beg ur pardon 4 this! Everything is a union in this world. eg: hand, legs, mouth, etc. r different parts but belongs 2 a superset named Body. legs works 4 our hands, hands 4 our mouth, likewise, every part of our body works 4 each other. But does any part expect anything is return? likewise, consider this world 2 be a system. Ppl r its parts. Will it be ok if v start expecting? wat ll happen if our hands expects something frm our mouth 4 d food it feeds? body will lose its sync! ok, now i agree wid my fellow frnd, who says tat self enjoyment is necessary at times. Now i hav a question 4 him... if v were all supposed 2 enjoy by our own? why wud some1 give us birth whr d bloody human population is already overflowing? why can't v all take birth on diff. planets? when mother nature has created so much, can't she do this? wat do u think? so can u now see a bleak ray of reason behind our co-existence?
Loving ppl, (whoeva it may be... regardless of language, caste, creed, all other social dividers) like ur own self is d essence of life. Even if 2day if u stop whr u stand n juz think abt d past on wat all u spoke n did wid ppl u neva knew n if u imagine urself in their shoes at tat vry moment, u may feel so bad tat ur inner self will kill u. Try doing tat every nite b4 u go 2 sleep. I neva say, go 2 temples, offer prayers. But juz spend time wid urself. Find time 4 urself 2 analyze ur deeds, ur words tat u left uttered. Play ur role widout any expectations frm d co-stars. Infact, teach ur co-stars gently if they underperform n grasp tats lacking in u. Its all abt doing things 4 others, coz v r here juz 2 serve ppl, juz 2 make others happy, directly or indirectly. This kind of thought will come not out of spoon feeding, not out of forcing upon some1, but wud come out of no whr (2 be scientific)! Anyway, v r all gonna die 1 fine day, n can't take away d smallest piece of matter frm here. So, lets enjoy by making others enjoy(Newton wud feel proud 4 developing his 3rd law after reading this). Pledge today, not postpone, tat i ll strive wid full acceleration 2 make more n more ppl n other creations happy! wid this u ll be d change, n will neva expect something else 2 change! I m today writing this 4 u, my dear reader, coz i follow this myself, else i wudn't be delivering such a noble msg so beautifully 2 u. Thanks 4 reading it, n i wud be much more happy if u implement!

In Pursuit of Happiness...

Many ppl: writers, poets, playwrights, even filmmakers, n above all our religious scriptures hav given us elaborate lessons on happiness, but still many of us haven't got it right. I m not some1 who may giv u d perfect way 2 achieve happiness. But juz try this as well.
Lemme giv u a self-derived theorem.
"Wateva we do, or if any changes occur in nature, v can be sure tat it happens only 2 bring more happiness."
This theorem may appear 2 be failing at certain instants, but such appearance is a mere illusion. Thr is a corollary 2 this as well.
"Anything done or changes made 2 bring unhappiness will require more force n energy, n this will always be lesser than d forces of nature."
Like force n energy r physical quantities, happiness is an eternal, divine quantity which can only be felt. One may consult any physicist or refer 2 any physics text, n u may find tat everything will tend 2 reach equilibrium or a more stable state. Even stability as a term may carry only a physical meaning. In this article, this theorem of stability has been extended.
1 may wonder tat how come every change occurs only 2 bring more happiness. I shall now discuss some vry small examples taken frm our day-2-day life.
1) We all get up in d morning, brush our teeth. But y? y shd v do it? ok, try not brushing n u ll feel uneasy while having anything all thru d day. It makes us feel fresh n happy.
2) Wat if v eat pizza wid curd? how wud it be? But v generally hav it wid tomato, mustard or chilli sauce juz 2 taste better n make us happy.
3) V all keep our rooms tidy n clean. Y? It makes us feel pleasant as soon as v enter it. Who wud like enter a dirty, stinking room.
4) V all fall in love n marry or marry n fall in love juz because it makes us feel on top of this world. V knw tat thr s some1 who ll give their everything 4 us!
5) I m writing this 4 my satisfaction coz this article may benefit some1, make some1 lead a better life. Wen i see some1 feeling better brings me happiness in return.
Likewise everything happens 2 bring more n more happiness. Rather in our ancient scriptures, its said tat wen GOD created this universe, he was fully determined 2 bring ntn else but immense happiness. V all knw tat GOD is omnipresent so v need 2 be pleasing wid every1. Infact, bringing sadness/grief or any negetive feeling is so difficult , as difficult as rowing a boat upstream! But its so surprising tat ppl row d boat upstream wid more ease than rowing it downstream! Finding a path of happiness is juz a matter of proper decision-making.
Many say tat d cause of happiness is relative. Here by referring 2 many ppl, I point 2 those who r ignorant. According 2 me, both d cause n d state of happiness is absolute. Thr is no scale 2 measure happiness. Its an art of enjoying d present. Infact, I haven't chosen an apt title. It shd hav been "Happiness in pursuit of u". Being happy is so simple, rather d simplest! But 4 making ppl happy, they need 2 taught abt it in d most complex way. If they r taught in an easy n simple way, they feel tat their GURU is not well-read! Enjoying each n everything which v come across in our daily lives will bring happiness.
Lemme raise a question: How many of u wud enjoy standing in a long queue on a hot, sunny day?
Well, I dun think anybody enjoys tat. But wen i think of those standing behind me, I feel blessed. Wen i think of those ahead of me in tat queue, i appreciate their devotion tat they came earlier. Now juz luk, how beautiful it is 2 see every1 being so different yet all of them hav d same tolerance level, level of patience. Think, in tat heat, how beautifully they were all crafted by Lord Brahma. Other than this, wen i wait in a queue, i come across many things which makes me happy n keeps my senses engaged. This was juz an example.
Work which is not done to bring happiness to 1 or many also if not done out of interest is sheer waste of energy n resources. To this work, many may oppose or/and criticize, but 1 shdn't give up, rather pray 2 d almighty 2 give d ability 2 finish wid maximum efficiency n u, urself row upstream wid full mental n physical energy having juz 1 thing in mind: Wateva outcome this work produces will add 2 d peace n happiness in our society. Some1 is gonna smile coz of u!
SPREAD SMILES! :)

Love is not blah blah blah... Then wat is it?

Love is not a valley of tears
it is the plain of smiles, in lives

Love is not a cloud of fears
it is the sky of confidence, in minds

Love is not a house in doubts
it is the rain of trust, clearing dust

Love is not an award to relish
it is to lose trivials, from hearts

Love is not a string of timely events
it is the diamond bead necklace, of moments

Love is not falling like petals
it is the opening up of bud, new everyday

Love is not undressing with hands
it is the caress with eyes, through nights

Love is not pointing out flaws
it is the tapering with understanding, gradually

Love is not bowing oneself to feet
it is the soft hug of respect, for togetherness

Love is not a storm of feelings
it is the eternal peace, afterwards

Love is not a war waiting for declaration
Love is not a deal signing proposal
It is that sense of belonging
as one sacred union
before anything
is tagged 'love'

With love, Bismillah!

U mite hav come across many ppl in ur life! many means a vry large number. but out of tat quantity, i wud like 2 point at a noble person named Bismillah Khan. With this info, many readers mite be instantly mapping this name in their brains, n searching. Some may knw but some won't. lemme add 1 more detail 2 his name, ustaad bismillah khan. Even now, some more mite hav reckoned him, n some didn't. now adding 1 more detail abt him, he was a shehnai player. Now many hav got who i m talking abt. thr is a reason 2 y am i taking his name wen thr r many ppl like gandhiji, obama, rehman, n many more.
this man hails frm banaras(varanasi). i wasn't fortunate enuf 2 meet him personally at home but i somehow made it 2 his concert thr. he is an "upaasak of naad-brahma puja," an embodiment of "ganga-jamuna tehzeeb", he was a symbol of secularism. this man is known 2 vry less number of ppl. ppl knw A.R.Rehman, Yaani, Elvis, Michael Jackson, etc. as gr8 musicians but this man was 1 step ahead of them all but instrument was not well-known. The person who hosted tat concert told, "He was d undisputed jewel in d crown of Indian music; one who will not be born in d nxt few centuries. He gave a whole new meaning 2 shehnai".
As i knw him, he was not a person who played 4 money or fame, he neva even used 2 leave his favourite banaras whr during my stay thr, i cud see d notes of his shehnai wafted across d Kasi-Vishwanath n Sankat Mochan temples n intermingled wid d placid waters of d ganga. This was enuf 4 me 2 become his fan. I like him 4 his simplicity n humility which is guided by d love he has 4 his ppl. After earning fame, he refused requests frm d district administration n a company selling air-conditioners 2 hav an A/C installed in his room. 4 this he said," How i cud hav slept in d cool comfort of d A/C wen my neighbour Ramzan Ali poured buckets of water on his "tattar" 4 keeping d heat away in summer".
According 2 d religion of Islam, thr r 5 things a muslim shd do. And this man obeyed all d 5 wid passion!
A life constantly n search of d right Sur. Something tat he always tried 2 find in not juz his music but in his human relationships too. This was his only prayer, n sadly, this had been his only crisis.
Yes, despite immense love frm d public, despite gr8 recognition 4 his art, he had always been a lonely man. Soft-spoken n often at ease wid his lonely state. 2day v hav blogspot 2 share our feelings, but he used 2 celebrate his solitude musically in his dilapidated terrace room n tried 2 share it directly wid d blue, clear sky. He was compelled 2 perform 4 money 2 keep his family going but this humble genius was neva on d lookout 4 material happiness but only craved 4 human love.

Mujhe kuch nahi chahiye. Main sirf khuda se maangta hoon ek sachha sur jo mujhe abad kar aur iss jahan ko abad rakhe.
Main ahat hoon lekin suron mein hoon, aur ek waqt aayega jab main ahat nahi hoonga kyunki suron mein anahat kii bhi vyavastha kar rakhi hai Khuda ne...

He represented d bridge between classical music as nurtured in d royal courts n its popular versions presented on proscenium stages of d world. He elevated d shehnai frm sounding d auspicious notes at weddings 2 a magic instrument 4 classical hindustani music. He enhanced d instrument's range, innovating wid d cross fingering system2 produce gamaks n tonal modulation appropriate 2 d spectrum of sound required 4 hindustani music. D unique tone tat characterized his shehnai was d testimony 2 these innovations. But perhaps gr8er than all these achievements was d fact tat he represented a world n a worldview tat has all but disappeared 2day. [:(]
He did not become a gr8 shehnai player coz he hailed frm a family of court musicians or coz his guru or uncle Ali Bux 'Vilayatu', was a temple musician in Varanasi. His gr8ness lay in d fact tat he was. And as long as he was, he played.
True genius is Sui Generis! Its hardly surprising tat thr is no obvious inheritor of his mantle. Musicians frm all over d world made a beeline 4 his home in d temple town, lending it an all2gether diff dimension as a pilgrimage centre. Humble it was, as he treasured no wealth more than his shehnai. It was his companion which he placed 2 his pillow after his wife's death. This person being a Muslim worshiped Maa Saraswathi, a true secularist . His pluralism n tolerance were not learnt. They were instinctive n non-didactic, something tat flowed naturally in d context of his being. He belonged 2 a generation tat worshiped NAAD, d abstract principle of d perfectly tuned note n also a perfectly tuned soul. It was d pursuit of this goal in a culturally composite context tat defined his gr8ness!

Few questions 2 bother!

Thr r so many questions arising in my mind...
Y r ppl like this?
Y does every1wants everything 2 happen their own way?
Y does bloody every Indian parent want their kids 2 be rank holders?
Y d hell r ppl competing wid 1-another?
Y is tat d bloody currency notes r given more importance than d man possessing it?
Y r ppl greedy wen Maa has given her kids everything in abundance? Rather she doesn't knw 2 give less!
Y do ppl juz get carried away by d artificiality of things?
Wat makes ppl miss out d real beauty in a thing?
Y r HER kids so narrow-minded, wen Maa is so broad-hearted?
Y r HER children d way I've seen?
Wat do u think is d reason tat Maa created every1 uniquely? Even twins born at d same time frm d same womb r different in nature!
Wateva maybe d reason, y don't HER kids realize tat?
Y does every1 want 2 be d same?
Getting a MBA degree, becoming a technocrat, doctor, rank-holder, CEO... Y can't ppl think beyond this?
My dear readers, juz think, y can't ppl think unique, creatively inspite of being given a unique body, brain? This is juz like u give different inputs 2 different experiments but still u get d same output!!! Am i going into deep psychology? V r all gonna be revolutionaries, these r juz d sparks which ll ignite minds n tat ignition will set this world right! I want my readers 2 learn abt d essence of life! Life is not juz abt doing something, getting appreciation frm others... frm others, here, i mean those idiots who did nothing all their life n r alive 2 juz pass comments on ppl who did atleast something gud. God shd bless those "others"!
Instead life is all abt discovering urself, ur interests. Note here, its UR interests. Then spending all ur life mastering, further polishing n being on a pursuit of attaining perfection on wat v hav interest. So tat at d time of death, 1 can feel happy, take a breathe filled wid satisfaction n thank Maa 4 giving such a beautiful life n such a beautiful playgrnd!
All this seems 2 be nice heard n said, vry few hav d guts 2 ponder over it n act. Lemme share wid u 1 more fact. If i show this piece of writing 2 my parents, I knw wat they ll say. They ll say, "All this is fine, but u wasted ur time writing all this. This wasted time cud hav been utilized if u had studied ur syllabus, u wud hav scored more n wud hav got a better job!" This dialogue they uttered without thinking seems 2 me like a scolding! Its vry natural 4 them if they react in this way, coz they grew up playing in a bounded playground like a fish in a well. Whreva they turned their faces, they saw a huge wall in front of them. They were not so fortunate 2 hav read this at a tender age wen our activities doesn't become habits. They juz acted thinking abt wat tat person wud say or wat this person wud say if i act tat way or this way, ultimately did ntn, juz thought n tat too wat others wud feel/think!
But i don't think this 2 be a topic of thouht at all. Did mother nature provide us wid a finite playgrnd 2 play our games of life?
Did she eva enforced any rules n regulations 4 d game of life?
Then who r those ppl who tell us 2 do things as they like?
Think unique, Do unique n thus, BE unique! But everything wid love n compassion 2wards 1 n all....

ThanQ
