Meditation: a gateway - to Nirvana

Ever imagined sitting by a quietly flowing stream… in the lap of Nature where life is green and sunny…. amazing isn’t it….. ?

Incredibly blessed with exquisiteness, fabricated with repetition of the gushing sound of water falls, engulfing the ambiance as if Nature has woven a song of its own….

I guess it all comes back on us if we want to sit on the rocks and let the sights and sounds of the flowing water make a way to our soul and bring out inner peace or just pass it on prioritizing the reasons for its ignorance

Funny isn’t it when Nature silently sings songs for us, never banking on our attention and yet never intrudes to the decisions we take in our lives….

For different people there can be many ways to meditate ourselves…

But the bottled up idea is how one can apply the effort in a direction opposite to what we are used to and our "effort" must be to relax ever more deeply.

Facing the daily odds of life where my life is all tied up with the hours of the clock a kind of race against time….I do urge to seek refuge where I can diffuse my soul with the vibes…..
For me, Music is my refuge where I can crawl into the space between the notes and become the part of the melody. It lets me in fabricating the silence where these notes are woven and yes it does heal my shattered soul…..

The best part about meditating myself is when I have my soul reflector…. someone whom I am in tuned with and share these internalize energies with…...

There is nothing more one can feel when you bring happiness in another soul where a tremendous flow of energy is awakened….

All of the concerns, problems and projects, which had filled our mind to bursting capacity begin to disappear.

There is nothing to try to figure out now, nothing to decide.

The lyrics silently console you with their perfect peace and harmony.

You feel somehow sedated, as if the forces of nature have conspired to put you at siesta - to put you at ease.

There is nothing to do, nowhere to go and nothing to think of. All I feel is to lie back and absorb the peaceful vibrations which flow into every part of my being, whispering,

«be at peace, relax my friend, all is well now».

The peace and security of being in the womb of melody allows us to surrender to the moment and we become a receptor to anything any challenge we let our thoughts and feelings…..It is as if the door of our mind has been opened and all of those conversations, actions and perceptions lying unresolved, floating at various depths in the sea of the mind begin to glide….

To me Music expresses my feelings and thoughts, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words as if the composer has taken the colours of nature and pen pictured the portrait on the silence.
