Beyond Birth & Death

One fine day someone wished me ‘Happy Birthday’.

I found a moment of joy and I said thank u.

The very next moment a thought came to my mind.. Who was born this day???

Is it ME, the body or the mind?

I couldn’t find any of this was born in the same day.. except a thought only.

I asked myself, Am I born?

No.. never! I am always here.. only the body was manifested… and it will disintegrate when the time comes.

Is it the body manifested that day?

Nah! Much before it was there in my mother’s womb. The body came out from the womb is that day.

That means the body which I belong is visible to you on that day. Right!

So you are celebrating that moment?

YES!

Then why can’t you tell ‘Happy visible day’

From the ‘Invisible’ I become ‘Visible’ because of my karma in the past..

I will be ‘Invisible’ again when the karma ends! And thats my birth and death!

ACT – Get up and put your shoulders to the wheel – how long is this life for? As you have come to this world, leave some mark behind.Otherwise, where is the difference between you and the trees and stones? They too Come into existence, decay and die. – Swami Vivekananda.

Committed for what???

I wonder when someone’s relationship status is ‘committed’… because at that moment a question arises in me – Are they committed to live or to commit suicide???

I believe for most of them commitment means a promise to live together. I don’t know if it’s the same what I’m supposed to follow. Anyway it’s my turn to think… Let me try!

While searching a groom for their daughter, parents make assurance that he will take care of their daughter forever. For that they ensure if he has a sound job status, family background and moral values. Is that sufficient for a girl and a guy who decide to live together? Can a job or family status give togetherness or harmony in life? If not then what else can??

For me, marriage is a path where two minds think together and move towards a common goal. To move towards the same goal both should support each other. I feel this is commitment! Only then there will be harmony in life. Otherwise, it is just a status that one is ‘committed’. It can be a commitment to kill oneself while we look for a life!
