"There is a house which is dark; and there is no electricity..and the Ghost with his two sisters used to stay there, crawling around the village sometimes.." I remember my grandma saying this in a shrill voice to all of us - clinging to her and trying to imagine the house. This used to make us silent and further follow her up in the story..and no need to say that the never-ending stories never used to end before we sleep ..or the sleep used to come before the story used to end.
Today, even when I imagine this house, it seems so scary so dark. Living in such a house is out of question. And so we can go there with a matchstick and a candle and illuminate the house..or try to get electricity and make it illuminated.
The house gets its beauty, its light and the visibility inside when the candle is lighted or the bulb glows. The Ghosts will go away and it will be place to live.
Is not the same thing goes with life, with the body and with the mind. Unless one switches on the light, it is so dark. Years together we never make the choice of illuminating the life and so it remains dark, it remains unexplored and not a place where the good thoughts can stay. Darkness swallows the self, the soul inside and we are left in the deep darkness.
Once the new light is searched for, there is connection that gets established between the body, the mind, the soul and the inner self. All of them gets connected, everything becomes so visible, so simple and logically connected. And the darkness is removed, the blind spot gets open, we see ourselves, and ...in the process others also see us and we see others.
Yes...there is a choice that is to be made. The choice of Darkness and Ghosts..or the choice of Lights and Living, beautiful house..The choice has to be made by you, by me, by the self, not by anyone else.
The first realization that there is a light beyond the darkness of life, the connection that exists between the inner self, the mind, the body, the soul and the life; this realization need to be there. Then only the choice can be made. Once the choice is made, the awakening happens, the flaring up, waking up, the soul-searching starts. The Ghosts like fear, insecurity, jealousy, greed, anger, ego, pride, selfishness start running away. The clear image transforms, the clarity evolves out of the fog...
They may call it Nirvana or Awakening or soul searching; but for me; it is just to share with You with Me and connect You with Me..through the invisible thread.
