New Year StrataGEM

Yet once again
It's time to start fresh game!

Get rid of mental strain,
Wash the anguish from your brain!
Let all the cynicism drain
To feel the soothing rain
On the revived veins.

Yet once again
It's time to start fresh game!

Prepare yourself to maintain
The enlarged domain,
With less of complains
And more of compliance.

Yet once again
It's time to start fresh game!

Protect the self from feign
And let the spirit reign.
The vain must be in rein,
It must be allowed to wane!
You may have to deign,
But remember you'll gain.

Yet once again
It's time to start fresh game!

Away from the customary chain,
Seek a new lane!
Solely with the self campaign,
Bliss is to be attained!

Yet once again
It's time to start fresh game.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Lighting a merry Christmas

Smiling is very must!

Blessings are to be discussed,

Carols are to be listened;

Yummy cakes are to be eaten,

Greet 'N' gifts are to be given;

Santa would be coming

To enliven your living!

In the 'instant' age,
Respect is a pact
Making relations compact
Leaving little impact
As it is not given from heart.
Packed in temporary role,
Respect is a leaf that falls off
During trough.
But regard,
Is an eternal guard
That helps in blissful depart.
It seems hard to give regard
Which erupts from rib cage
And leaves vibrations like sage.

Regard helps generate esteem
That has a focused 'venerable' beam
Which makes respect deemed.

Regards naturally brings respect,
But it becomes vulnerable
When 'venerable' beam gets missed
In showing 'instant' respect
Without any regard.

Ergo Respect gets compact

And stays in graveyard
Making one regret
The experience of illusory respect,
While Regard successfully leaves a visiting card
Which always stays as a guard.

Beyond Partial

Beyond Partial

'Wants' create more 'wants',
Thank god! constraints exist
To stop feeding such 'wants'.
Wait! Is it these constraints
Which tend to create more wants?
Yes! it might be.

Blockages of constraints open,
Water of 'wants' flows more than usual.
Then a 'Rational'
Might Lose rationality
And consume beyond saturation.
Arrogant rational being
Goes on a binge
Thinking that the new allocation
Would have a wise tinge,
Failing to understand
Systematic error has its stand.
One must learn,
The working
Of System 1 and System 2
To be truly rational!

Let effortful system work to think-
If given initial constraint
Fulfilled desires,
Then how to make optimum use of the bonus?
Whether to keep feeding illusionary wants
Or to create marvels?
Whether to gain wisdom
Or to keep searching
For new satisfaction levels?
Whether to understand the general equilibrium
Or to keep reaching a higher partial equilibrium
Which avoids other sectors
And seems to have a limited hectare!

Living or Surviving

Living or Surviving

Years pass by without expressing

Whether a task gives you a feeling

Of living or surviving.

When one is dealing

It's said that's living,

When one is asked to sit calmly

It's said that's surviving.

In which case are you thriving?

The concepts have changed.

Living became a surviving,

Surviving became a living.

Start thinking,

Are you surviving a living

Or living a surviving?

LEAD in NEED

Lead in Need

Where there's a weed
And a need to remove bad deed,
Plant a seed of good deed
 And Lead.

Why we feed a weed
Just for our greed?
To earn a yield!
Eventually money would yield
Higher rates of return
But quality of life forgone
Would never return.

 Instead of feeding a weed,
Let's lead in need.

माया

माया 

संसार मे डूब कर देखा ,हाथ पकड़ में आई माया। 

छाया जैसी  बन गई माया,यह मिट्टी की है काया। 

पल पल हसाया,पल पल रुलाया,

हर पल सोया,खुद को ही गाया। 

तन भी खोया, मन से खोया ,

कण कण खोया,जग में भुलाया। 

जहाँ  तहाँ  का खाया ,कुछ नहीं भाया,

ऐसा नाट्य रचाया ,फिर तू पछताया। 

अपंग सा तू बन गया ,

जब यम का बुलावा आया। 

अब समझ में आया,

क्या थी यह संसार की माया !

Pissed

Pissed

Someone insisted the pissed

To face every twist

And never to resist,

In order to exist

One must persist.

One mustn't get pissed

When one's name gets missed

In a list.

One mustn't feel dismissed,

One must feel free

To join a 'Unique Class' list.

Instead of getting pissed,

Let the thoughts get a twist.
Let the mind consist

Valuable thoughts 
Which none can extinguish.

Valuable thoughts would assist

To increase the self worth.
Then the name would never get missed

In any valuable list.

Once it feels You.

But You choose to reveal yourself

Can't say they found You

Some Time

SOME TIME

There's 'some time' left,

I'll knock around.

There isn't any time left,

In 'some time'

Nothing could be done,

So I'll knock around.

There's only 'some time',

So I'll fulfill my desires

Of grabbing things and pounds.

Then in Mathematics

Integration was taught

And its link with 'some time' was revealed.

'Some time' summed together

Would make up my whole Life!

What I do in 'some time'

Is what I do in Life.
The lesson was forgotten in 'some time'.

When 'some time' was left to fade away,

When in 'some time'

I met my true self,

I realised,

I wasted my life

In useless desires.

I was highly indebted to souls

Who helped me,

Who gave me their 'some time'.

I didn't give anyone 'some time'.

I didn't value 'some time'.

Oh Lord!Please give me 'some time'

To make my life worth.

Give me 'some time'

To thank who helped me.

Give me 'some time'

To help others.

Give me 'some time'

Not to knock around

But to utilize.

At least give me 'some time'

To clear the debts of all times.

In 'some time',

'Some time' seemed to be very valuable.

The way small rectangles

covered the whole area,

'Some time',

covered the whole life.

સ્વચ્છતા અને પવિત્રતા

સ્વચ્છતા  અને  પવિત્રતા 

શરૂ થયું અભિયાન 

સ્વચ્છતા નુ,

જરૂરી હતુ  એક વિકલ્પ 

પવિત્રતા નુ । 

પવિત્રતા હશે તો સ્વચ્છતા રહેશેજ 

પણ જ્યાં બધું સ્વચ્છ દેખાતુ હોય  

શું ત્યાં પવિત્રતા અનુભવાય છે?

 આજુ બાજુ છે બધું રળિયામણું 

પણ મન નથી સોહામણું ,

શરૂ  થયું છે અભિયાન 

પણ માનવ કરે છે દેહાભિમાન ।

વિચાર મા આવશે પ્રમાણિકતા 

ને જ્યોત પ્રગટશે ભીતર મા ,

તોજ ઉજાસ પ્રસરશે જીવન મા ।

NOTHING IS COMPLETE

NOTHING IS COMPLETE

Life is incomplete
Because Life is Something
With 'Me' instinct.

'Me' is the only One,
While traveling kilometers left was only One.
Till the time its in a state of 'Me',
Till the time kilometer left is 'One',
It won't reach Ultimate One.
The moment One becomes nothing,
The moment kilometer left is zero,
Is the moment of ultimate bliss.

zero is nothing
But zero is complete.
State of nothing
Is the state of being complete.
Nothing is Complete.

Seconds

SECONDS

It takes time to achieve success

But few seconds to meet failure.
It takes time to make consistent profit
But few seconds to incur loss.
It takes time to grab things
But a single earthquake to snatch things.
It takes life to make life lively
But in seconds Death snatches it happily.
Too much time is invested
In building a life
Which is always under construction!
Where good things take time
While bad things snatch time
And the last crucial Seconds
Teaches us the truth of Life.
The well-experienced Seconds 
Which could turn victory into failure
Teaches a great lesson of Life
To turn failure into victory.
It takes seconds to gain values that lasts till years,
But it takes years to grab things that lasts for seconds.
