Student Asks :: What Is Love?

A student asks a teacher, “What is love?”
The teacher said, “in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick.”

The student went to the field, go thru first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders….may be there is a bigger one later. Then he saw another bigger one… but may be there is an even bigger one waiting for him.

Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he starts to realise that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he knew he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted. So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand. The teacher told him, “…this is love… you keep looking for better ones, but
when later you realise, you have already missed the person.

Seeing It... !!..

"If the Human Body is Obscene, Complain to the manufacturer, Not Me." ~Larry Flynt Long back while watching Discovery Channel. In a Program, I heard them say: "Our Body is Dynamic. Changes every day. Each & Every Day... ! Human Skeleton is COMPLETELY RENEWED every 10 years." *Current Research -- PMID: 8519493, PMID: 597437 [[ Pubmed IDs ]] We say that: (1) His Eyes are intense. (2) Her Smile is good. etc. IS IT FOR ALL? ...ALWAYS?? I'm trying to say that - Its All in the Eyes ! A person lying naked on the bed... can be anyone from a child to someone selling body for money. And EYES can be anything from Saintly Ignorant to Gyenocologist at Work to a Ponce to Sharp Shooter to Fighter Pilot to a Mother [[who feels - and not just See It !]] Some Child [[unable to See beyond some feet !]] to a Blind [[who still can see - WITHOUT EYES !]]... Or may be YOUR OWN EYES ! Well this Human Body as we SEE is not the same for long. Beautiful today, can be Granny tom...

A Sufi Sight... !!..

CLOUDS NOW & THEN GIVE SOUL SOME RESPITE FROM THE MOON GAZING BEHOLD... !!.. ~Baku (A Haiku Translated From Japanese) ... Just Read & Enjoy ! [1] A seeker went to ask a sage for guidance on the Sufi way. The sage counseled, " If you have never trodden the path of love, go away and fall in love; then come back and see us. " ~Jami [2] The Sun never says to the Earth - 'You owe me.' " Look what happens with a love like that. It lights up the whole sky. " ~Hafiz

Simple Everyday Thoughts !

You simply have to put one foot in front of the other and keep going. Put blinders on and plow right ahead. One must work and dare if one really wants to live. ~Vincent Van Gogh The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore. If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. Great things are done by a series of small things brought together. Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes. Only when I fall do I get up again. Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. The reward of a thing well done is having done it. An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory. I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. I've failed over...
