मानस गीत

(This is inspirational song of Manas people)
(यह मानसों का प्रेरणा गीत है)

अग्नि इन्द्र वरुण तुम हो, सूर्य सोम और रुद्र भी तुम हो।
किसकी प्रतीक्षा कर रहे हो मानस,
ब्रह्म भी तुम ही हो।
अहम ब्रह्मस्मि कहो, ब्रह्म नाद प्रारम्भ करो।


विराट पुरुष तुम हो, हिरण्यगर्भ तुम्हारे ह्र्दय में है।
किसकी प्रतीक्षा कर रहे हो मानस,
विश्वकर्मा भी तुम ही हो।
अपने विश्व की रचना प्रारम्भ करो ।


यज्ञ की वेदी तुम हो, हवि भी तुम हो।
किसकी प्रतीक्षा कर रहे हो मानस,
पुरोहित भी तुम ही हो। यज्ञ प्रारम्भ करो,
ब्रह्म नाद करो, अहम ब्रह्मस्मि कहो ।

SJ (28.8.09)

क्यों कहते हो मेरे साथ कुछ भी बेहतर नही होता

सच ये है के जैसा चाहो वैसा नही होता

कोई सह लेता है कोई कह लेता है क्योंकि

ग़म कभी ज़िंदगी से बढ़ कर नही होता

आज अपनो ने ही सिखा दिया हमें यहाँ

हर ठोकर देने वाला पत्थर नही होता

क्यों ज़िंदगी की मुश्क़िलों से हारे बैठे हो

इसके बिना कोई मंज़िल, कोई सफ़र नही होता

कोई तेरे साथ नही है तो भी ग़म ना कर

ख़ुद से बढ़ कर कोई दुनिया में हमसफ़र नही

VM (07.9.09)

यह सच है कि खुद से बेह्तर कोइ साथी नही होता

पर खुद को पाना भी तो इतना आसान नही होता

खुद को पाना गर इतना आसान होता

तो दुनिया मे इतना गम न होता और

कोई कभी तन्हा ना होता

हमने भी कभी तमन्ना की थी हमसफर की दिले साकी की

एक हसीन सपना सा देखा था ज़िन्दगी के दिन ओ रातो की

पर कोन जांनता है ख्वाब के पीछे क्या होता है

खुशबू ए फूल है या कांटो की चुभन है

अब तनहाई ही हमसफर है हमसाथी है हमसाकी है

किसी का साथ अब अच्छा नही लगता

दिल घब्रराता है अब किसी की आहट से

खामोशी खामोशी खामोशी बस सिर्फ खामोशी हर तरफ खामोशी

BOOK 1- The Silence

Silence is the beginning and silence is the end - in between the two, lies all sound and noise. Before coming into being there was silence and after end of being, it is silence. Silence is the source of birth of all matter, energy and living beings and silence is the ultimate destination of all things, energy and living beings. All life forms come into being out of pure silence and vanish into pure silence.

It is so easy to be noisy (make noise and live in noise) and so difficult to be in a state of silence. Mere 'not speaking and not listening' is not in itself state of silence. Mere absence of sound and noise is not silence. Loneliness is also not silence. Silence is a natural state of being while loneliness is man's perception created by man made circumstances. Loneliness is a negative state of being while silence is a positive state of being. Loneliness weakens man while silence strengthens him. Loneliness is forced upon a man by social, family or other external circumstances while silence originates from within the man's heart and mind.

Silence is a loving inner peace and lies deep within the depth of heart. It has always been there. It is always here. It is right here within you and all around you, stillness, an apparent void, a seeming nothingness out of which everything arises, exists, and eventually returns.

When you are in a state of silence, there are no words, just an echo of primordial sound ( "OUM" ) and you and the silence within. There is nothing more than this and nothing less than this. This is the truth. This is the source from where everything comes into being and then returns. All existence, everything that is, all matter and energy, all thought is contained in this silence.

This pure silence is what some have called Truth, Infinity, Reality, Enlightenment, Nothingness, God, Holy Spirit, True Self, Love and Consciousness.

This silence is a mystery beyond mind, beyond what the human brain can fully comprehend. Like a beautiful diamond, we can only see a few facets at a time. This mystery is seemingly far beyond our capacity to understand, to know. And yet this is contained within our very selves, and this contains us as well.

The greatest wonder of this is that you and I, above all other life forms on this planet are able to be consciously aware of this reality.

You are aware of this, though perhaps you have not experienced this yet. Perhaps you have not realized this. This awareness of ours, this consciousness of being, is the silence itself.

This silence permeates everything and is the cause of everything.

All that you need, all that you seek, all that you hope and long for is contained in this silence.

This is the way everything is in reality exist. All forms, all matter, all energy, all thoughts grow and then disappear.
