Keep it pure! ~ Preserve it!

photo credit: by puri_

God is caring about the human

He forbid them from doing sins

like bloodshed, adulteries, debaucheries, etc.

These sins were declared as forbidden acts

God sents prophets for previous nations of world for proper guidence

and Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) was the last prophet, to guide the all of humanity 

lovers may understand about the concept of 'forbidden' and 'sins',

if they know about preservation in love!

the lovers must keep themselves pure

to preserve the respect of love

even the wordly beloved dislike if lover leave him and go astray after the alluring glitters of the strangers!

actually it is not selfishness in love

but the main requirement of Love for being a true love

this is the preservation of santity

and the purity of being

Preservation: Loving regardless of the meeting face-to-face..

"Although we have lost physical contact and never seen each other since months"

the girl wrote in the chat window in the computer,

"I dont know how come are we going on until now!"

the lover replied:

"I know about God since my childhood

without having seen Him

and still I am going on with Him! -

  This is a matter of belief!"

Single atom of Oxygen must meet some one!

image credit: by ms.poem

Chemistry of Love & Relationship: Like example of Oxygen!

In Chemistry, matter makes an atom. Two or more atoms make a molecule. And these atoms or molecules combine to make a subtance. In short, atom is the smallest unit which can take part in a chemical reaction, but may or may not exist independently. For example, The atoms of the oxygen gas always exist in pair (i.e. In form of molecule). It never exist as a single atom (O) independently, it always exists as O2.  

Water (H20) is a compound combination of 2 atoms Hydrogen (H2) and a single atom Oxygen (O). If water is broken, then it these atoms are free. Thus released Oxygen and Hydrogen.

H20 ---------->  2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen

If there is a single atom of Oxygen(O) is released.. Since, nature has meant it to live with some pair, so, it must fulfil this requirement. It shall readily combine with any other atom it will happen to meet.. to get a stable state! Either it may combine with another single atom Oxygen, to make a pair (O2) or may combine with any other like atoms of Sulphur or whatever as possible!

Similarly, God has put a quality of concileation and accustomisation in human beings to overcome psycological traumas and lonliness in this world. The lonely heart will find the best one. A relationship is a gift of God. I maybe be liked by your heart (Oxygen), or maybe selected by fate (Sulphur, Potasiaum or Oxygen).. whatever, Every single atom of Oxygen must meet some one.. Everyone have a full potential of love, just we need to uncover this secret and realise this hidden treasure. This is special gift of God. This bond represents the love. Just there is a need of purityand respect. This world should be like a clean lab with pure heart atoms, molecules, and sincere compounds. This state of stability, peace, mental self satisfation and thankfuless to God is what they say as a balanced happy life. And I say a peaceful glory of human relationships with the sweetness of love, care and respect.  This is a social stability, social nirvana and peace of life, and warmth of heart!

oh holy pigeon of love
your eyes have every colour of life and feelings
your heart is always fluttering like a green flag of sufis
and nerves always flowing with the tears of emotions
oh sentient being
oh sensible heart..

this is not your place
this is full of contamination by griefs
ruined & dilapidated by miseries
aah.. garden and dry grass
and some murky sunlight
only autums resides here with few dry leaves

oh my heart!!
fly high.. go into the skies..
sing.. sing.. sing.. transcend the skies..

Purity

~
what makes the heart dance in joy
what makes the eyes see the world clear
what makes all senses feel every emotion
even that of whithering leaves
russling over the lonely roads of life
what makes us know the love

it is purity,

the water of time will keep on flowing
as long it is destined to flow
but the silence will get on laughing
as much pain it saw in the times of pain
the love will shine on day
the sun will rise
and the first ray of light will knock every glum door
and the eyes will raise thankfully!

May our hearts be translucent
to let some beams pass in to shine
making us stars
in this world
and in the real place

how many eyes got water?
how many hearts came forth with love!?
water has reflection of dome
love has fragrance of thoughts
and the sky is bright
and the wind mild

nature flows in the air
eyes look on emptyness in the space
as we are in nowwhere
but still in love!

peace on all
sentient beings!

I choose Love!

The city of Makkah had been polluted with the centuries of ignorance and cruelty. A young man started started preaching the lessons of cleanliness and purity among the youth and other ages. The inspiration was increasing among the youth.. that the city elites got skeptical and worried. System of tyranny started trembling with the fear of getting tumble down.

They came to that man, and offered him the wealth and the best women of Arab to be presented as a price to stop that peaceful teaching of Oneness of God which was going to promote brotherhood of man, purity and love.

He said to his close relative, I will never stop this teaching, even if they place the sun at my one hand and the moon at other!

This man was Muhammad (peace be upon him) the last prophet of God!

(with the time their atrocities increased upon him and his relatives, and he was forced to leave Mekkah along with most of his companions. Later on, he became victor in the war of Mekkah, and he forgave everyone in Mekkah, also including the enemies of war)

Why we love 'em..

Picture Courtesy: originally uploaded on flickr.com by Marlis1- in Switzerland


Why we love them!!

In this world, everyone of us have dearest ones.. whenever someone says: 'Please take of your health! You are very important to me' - tears come automatically in the eyes by listening that!!

What is this? why do we love them? we are selfish to all of the world? but our heart stops beating when we understand their love and care for us! We need this love! Why?

We can solve this mystery..very easily! just by stopping by for some time and reflecting upon our emotions. Now I personally tell you, "We are grossly impoverished of Love in this world.. because we have a very short circle.. Love is like an oxygen.. we can die emotionally if it stops reaching in our lungs!! We really need our loved ones to love us!! Love is a magic which energizes a mom to make her babbling baby say for the first time 'ma.. ma'! Mom and child have a deep psycological attachment and emotional synchronization of mind, heart and being, and they convey their emotions to each other by using facial expressions and smiles.. this smile is very important for her to accoutre her baby with emotional confidence and feeling of warmth... the life! unless this smile this flower may whither away soon! The mama is love.. Love, love, love! All we need is love! We can't live without it!

Love is so much important in our life, we can see its examples in every important moment which empowered us to feel confidence and happiness. All our miseries actually are due to missing of love!

A boy loved a girl.. and she was normal in beauty! He passed some time and they got close so much that one live in other's heart. Later on, he let go all the chances of having the beautiful one!

Why? which power made him adamant to his love only. That is Love! Love is enough!

There is a famous Pujabi language song to be heard in Pakistani wedding:

Kala Shah Kala
Kala Shah Kala mera kala hai dil dar
Gorean no paraN karo
Mein aap sone di taar
Gorean no paraN karo

Black King Black

Black King Black my lover is black

keep the white ones away

I am myself his connection

keep the white ones away

(in punjab, sometimes colour complexion is the meter of beauty judgement among many people. But this song implies on the importance of love instead of averting towards the more beautiful!)

Our beloved ones are enough for us! We need them. We stay happy, no matter they are not the best dazzling qualities, but they are every thing for us! Why they are enough? why we love them? we are actually feel mentally and emotionally alienated from the strange company and people, so there creates a wide emotional gap in our heart, we can die with cold..! but our beloved ones fill that gap with the warmth of their existence! We never feel strange to them.. we share with them the similar basic cords of heart, which are intermingled, overlapped and tied with each other. It keeps our being perfumed. So, stay in touch to your relatives and beloved ones.. that is real life!

As there says a sufi poetry in Urdu:

kyun dekh k hm ko tm yu ank churatey ho

jb dil me hi rehto ho phir aankh sey kia parda

they ham bhi kabhi terey, gardish hey zamaney ki,

Mehram to puraney hain ,Aa ab to galey ml ja,

kia mj se chupatey ho, chilman sy lgey kyun ho

hm dekh to letey hain rukh aap ka thorra sa

- Syed Muhammad Shah Zaman Gilani Chisti!

Why you avoid after seeing me

As you stay in my heart, then what is this kind of veil from eye

sometimes I was also yours, change is brought by time

I am old acquaintance, come do embrace me now

what you hide from me, why you stay beside the veil

we do catch a little of your sight

Love.. Love.. Love!!

In the city of madina, a camel got a disease of skin itching. After that, many other camels started catching the same sickness. People started gossiping and stigamatizing the first camel, as they thought it the cause for spread of disease among other animals. It was suggested to alienate him from the place!!

The Teacher interrupted and asked: Why are you stigmatizing the poor animal?
People: Because of spreading diease in other animals!

He said: Well, if the disease came to other animals from the first one by spread.. then, where he got it from at first?
All got answerless!

Moral: Never stigmatize the poor one for their weakness. Infact they are need our love and kindness!!

Best Gift

Your Sweet Veils!

DSC_1122_tuyuguo_bldg, originally uploaded by kdriese.

They say I don't love You!
Yeah! they say right

people lose hearts in infatuations of love after seeing the beauty and getting impressed!
but how to love someone without seeing
i never got any chance of looking You
with any sweet long sights.
You kept so many veils!
so, how can i do love to You!

but that last night..
after hearing the sound of rustling from dress of some unknown passerby across outside of my door
and i lost my heart on that street which was perfumed with the sweet mysterious night
leaving my heart dusty and cracked with a sweet pain!

i know..
there had never been any passer-by there
nor any sound, nor any rustling of any clothe!
even there was no fragrance of Thee actually
but there was a mysterious veil !

You never gave a chance of looking Your Sweet Majesty!
but made me insane of Your glowing mytical shades of veils

You have many many thousands thousands uncountable veils
and my heart has got trapped in some of them!, which i got chance to perceive!

yeah, how can i love You!

.. Natural!
You keep so many veils

but i have lost myself in Your veils!
I love Your veils!

Purely!!! .. Sweet Nights of Love!

Taklamakan up close, originally uploaded by Kiwi Mikex.

Do You remember the beautiful wonderful nights, we passed together!
beside the dark night shade
even the star had been off
and no one else was there
except Thee and me!

it was so wonderful
so beautiful
like kissing on the black dot
in the middle of wonderful glowing white skin of pale love..

oh Honey, i love running after your white shades
for all of my this short miserable worthless life!

and the green tee
pure, deep
and peasantly little harsh in taste!
and the fragrant, fertile, rich, wetty vapours from tee
penetrating into mind
it was a best tee of ever
which i enjoyed in Your company!

You met me
but from so many veils..
so many..!!
so many..!!
to which one should i sacrify my heart on!

Oh, my Honey..
please don't betray me
by keeping so many veils
let me have You
or..
You have me!
Purely!!!

without You..

All the nights had gone
This night will also go too far
BUT this moment will never pass..

still great lofty..
This moment of peace and love!

Melting blue

Melting blue, originally uploaded by nordicshutter.

the naive lover was fumbling inside the reconditeness of ambiguity and confusion between the love and verbosity.. things are always quite unclear, but get the status of esoteric wisdom.. and being tired of this fruitless loving, he cries on the Beloved and challanges His Kindness!!

but when the Beloved resolves to show him the way.. he puts him in the test of wordly love.. his is being taught the etiquettes of worship, and that is the way of Love. All the things and beloved desires are finally lost, thus leaving the heart full of grief.. and then, he sees everyone and everything has forsaken this miserable being.. but still the final Truth is waiting to receive this frustrated loser in Its arms of kindness. And then the broken chipped-hearted lover realizes the True Beloved. The meshed heart of the lover finally becomes able to see the truth of love.. He can see the melting ice and transforming into the pure clean trasparent water.. so, then he rushes and wastes no time for getting it.. this glimpse is full of light of love and spirituality.. Truth is clear.. That is love! True love!

dry afternoon meditation

P1110849, originally uploaded by djotai.

after small intervals there coming screeching sounds of kites, in the sky of mild hot day with little fresh breeze, under the dry sunlight!

Human's desires are like a horse - as much you will free it , as far it will go away. As much you will stretch it, as long it will go on!.. like the rubber band! And it hurts a lot when you leave it after too much stretching it.

So, don't drive the heart unruled or ego as crazy horse.. keep a sights over it.. it don't need too much mindfullness. But it only needs letting things be normal. So don't stress them.. bitter pain has sometimes sweet taste.. but not always good for heart or soul!! What you need is to keep healthy emotions.. healthy mind!

Compassion of Beloved!

Small Pink Flowers, originally uploaded by ettlz.

The True Beloved accepts the lovers, irrespective of their pasts and old dispositions.
This is the compassion, forgiveness, sincerity and highest behaviour.
So, we should say this as Love of True Beloved -- whose love is not based on ego, need or selfish narrowness or need!

as sufis (lovers of True One) say:

Come, come, whoever you are.
Wanderer, worshipper, lover of leaving — it doesn't matter,
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vow a hundred times,
Come, come again, come. 1

-Rumi

The True Beloved has set up the eternal tavern of Love.. and He is constantly feeding the lovers with true wine of Love.. these cycles of brimmed chalice are increasing the bewilderment of sacred drunkards since ever!

After having him forgiven all his sins.. if He will play with lover by way of asking:
"You did that wrong at that time in your life! Do you remember?"
Then the lover would blush!! ;-)

What a Great Beloved! Accepting the lover! Accepting his repentence.. whatever background or past he keeps.. even if he has filled the world with his mistake! Just he needs a true repentence! The Beloevd is Great!

Few word for Ahmad Faraz

Photo: Ancient Mosque Friday Prayer uploaded by ungana

نہ جانےہوگیا ہوں اِس قدر حساس میں کب سے فراز
کسی سے بات کرتا ہوں تو آنکھیں بھیگ جاتی ہیں
"Don't know since when have i become sensitive to such extent, Faraz
when i talk to someone, my eyes soak wet! "
- Faraz

بڑا اندھیرا تھا اُن کی راہوں میں اے دل فراز
میں اپنا گھر نہ جلاتا تو کیا کرتا" much darkness was there in the ways which were leadng to their(=beloved's place?)(*1) place ways, Oh heart, Faraz
what else would i do, if i did not put my house on fire? "
- Faraz

اب کہ ہم بچھڑے تو شاید کبھی خوابوں میں ملیں
جس طرح سوکھے ہوئے پھول کتابوں میں ملیں" now that if we may get separate, then perhap would be found in the dreams,
same as dry flowers are found in the books "
- Faraz

رات بڑی مشکل سے سُلایا ہے خود کو میں نے فراز
اپنی آنکھوں کو تیرے خواب کا لالچ دے کر
" last night, with much difficulty, I have made myself asleep, Faraz!
by enticing my eyes with the greed of your (beloved*2) dream "
- Faraz

*1: In urdu poetry tradition, 'plural' word is also used to show respect to individual. Such as english word, 'thou', 'thee'.

*2: urdu poetry tradition, there are many linguistic allusions which hide many meanings. Many poets point at Beloved God by using veil of words of simple wordly beloved etc. This can be found in Momin's poetry. We should not negate this possibility in Faraz's poetry too. God knows better!

Ahamad Faraz, The last greatest poet of Urdu, (2008)

This great lover passed away last night.. his beloved might have come at his grave and she must have cried for some moment!

I went there. After seeing the grave, I returned to my place. My heart kept burning with pain and regret.. and then a dusty windstorm came.. and then light pitter patter.. and then little fast small rain came .. then it stopped within some minutes.. my dry country got soaked in some freshness.. and my heart felt much cooler after this rain!! May Allah mercy on the lovers' souls!

baby.... you are love!!

Kingston, originally uploaded by Richard M..

love is a holy bliss from God..!!

once love came to me
when i was sitting in a small evening street
and kissed lightly on my cheek
it seemed like a chubby small baby

i held him in my hands
then lifted him and then swirled around me
he laughed and laughed
in a very melodious tone
i played with him till many hours

then he stopped
in a silence
and then asked..
'can you feel love?'

i said..
'no'

'and now?'
saying this he ran away
and disappeared somewhere

since then..
'I can feel him!'

except the loving 'God' everywhere !!"

May Allah guide and protect us!

Love in the strange Wilderness!!

Star Night & Moon with flash. need to be viewed at largest size to see all the stars, originally uploaded by artic pj.

The people who
feel the freshness of night
and taste of true love
in the memory of True Beloved,
they should never
be afraid of strangeness
of new worlds, towns
and galaxies..

Because the true light of love
broadens their minds
and breath,
and fills their hearts with true ecstasy
and soul with fulfillment...

Oh.. Allah,
Give me the passion for celebrating these holy nights..
Come on..
here...
I am ready to get bewitched!!

Lover..

Lover's eye is always full of love!!

when he sees the Beloved..
something breaks inside his chest!

nothing remained in his chest now
given to the Beloved the thing what was the best!

Life!!

Once a Khwaja Baqibillah's disciple asked him what is 'annihilation in God[1]' (Fanaa) and 'Ever lasting subsistence in God[2]' (Baqaa). He replied: After my death, ask this question from the person, who will lead (imama) my funeral prayer.

Khwaja put a condition for his funeral prayer that it would be lead by only the person who had never missed any ‘late night prayer’ (tahajjud which is of not binding nature in Islam). Since it was so strict condition that after his death no one came forth to lead the prayer because there was no body would have offered all tahajjud prayers of his life without any missing.

A veiled man came forward and took lead of the funeral prayer. The disciple went to him to ask the question of fana & baqa. The veiled man removed his veil to show his face to him.. it was Khwaja himself inside!!
