Not becoming. Being.

I was bumping up and down at the back seat of an auto rickshaw. The motorbike next to me was probably just a few inches away. Many of the time i thought the auto rickshaw was gonna bang into the car at the front; just waiting for it to happen. It did not.

Driving to them is like walking. They can manipulate the vehicles so well, that it as already become part of them. Everyone is moving towards their destination, snaking in between spaces without hindering the progression of others. They probably has only one rule to follow--- no rule, yet with full awareness of what's going on on the road.

Don't ride the bike. Be the bike.
Don't sit on the chair. Be the chair.
Don't do yoga. Be the yoga.
Don't dance. Be the dance.
Don't talk. Be the words.

"Falling in love you remain a child; rising in love you mature. By and by love becomes not a relationship, it becomes a state of your being. Not that you are in love - now you are love."
"We all cling to the past, and because we cling to the past we become unavailable to the present."~ Osho

  2. Don't just play the music. Be the notes in between the spaces, be the music in creation in your own little way that its you, that no other people can even mimick it. Because the music is you.
    Drown yourself into the tunes, breathing in all the notes from the score and pour them out with your heart. and enjoy the goose-pimples that touches you from within.
