Let us keep it simple- This one's for our FAVOURITE TEACHER.....

This one's for you sir....


I know there are millions all over the world,
Who for their students, have new worlds, unfurled...
I know there are billions all over the world,
Who pray their teachers, with their ways superb,

Still in an attempt, to pray this person wise,
A person who has been like God, in Guru’s disguise,
Here I go ahead, on my little efforts to praise,
For his personality can not be thanked, in these small less ways,

In comparisons I have found, he is different than the different,
Enlightenment and Achievement, his teachings have always meant.
That simple saying, the little short thought,
For us, the one, “life” who has taught..

Yes, he values truth more than fame,
Yes he loves faith more than name,
Yes, he likes to be loyal; he likes to be sincere,
Yes for all his students, he is the panacea for every tear,

I had heard of Krishna, I know he was a God great,
And always I had wished, that a mentor like him, would be in my fate,
So, this is not for sir, this is for the God there in the heaven,
For giving us a “TEACHER” who is more precious than the World’s wonders seven.

SOLILOQUY - ECHOED!!

Soliloquy is something that you say to yourself, a part of your soul, that only you know. And when that part is defined for a GURU, it means a part of his infinite knowledge, which if understood will take you far more ahead of worldly mortal worries and wonders. Well, since I am a part of a worldly fanatics who call themselves- The ”To be engineers”, let me put it the engineering way,  a Guru's teaching is like the satellite, a big repeater in the sky, it keeps on relaying information , keeps on sending beaming echoes, that we all need for survival, but the gist of the long concept is you need to make your soul's receiver so strong, that you receive them, amplify them, and adhere to them with zero attenuation, forever . So here's putting a part of the same relayed knowledge to everyone who needs to know- The person who is the reason for this Blog to be made- My Guru, Prof. Akash Tayal.
This is what Krishna said to Arjuna, and sir told us to read, actually assimilate! No, I am not acknowledging myself to be Arjuna, but the other comparison holds. Yes, it does. Without doubt.For all times in life, when you need to decide-  between Dharma- and Adharma, this might help, will help...
  
''शरासन तान, बस अवसर यही है ,
घड़ी फ़िर और मिलने की नहीं है .
विशिख कोई गले के पार कर दे ,
अभी ही शत्रु का संहार कर दे .''

श्रवण कर विश्वगुरु की देशना यह ,
विजय के हेतु आतुर एषणा यह ,
सहम उट्ठा जरा कुछ पार्थ का मन ,
विनय में ही, मगर, बोला अकिञ्चन .

''नरोचित, किन्तु, क्या यह कर्म होगा ?
मलिन इससे नहीं क्या धर्म होगा ?''
हंसे केशव, ''वृथा हठ ठानता है .
अभी तू धर्म को क्या जानता है ?''

''कहूं जो, पाल उसको, धर्म है यह .
हनन कर शत्रु का, सत्कर्म है यह .
क्रिया को छोड़ चिन्तन में फंसेगा ,
उलट कर काल तुझको ही ग्रसेगा .''

भला क्यों पार्थ कालाहार होता ?
वृथा क्यों चिन्तना का भार ढोता ?

And as  an end addressal, sir, we are blessed to be a part of that world which has less, but precious people like you!!

BE IN THE SYSTEM, TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM

There are fewer chances in life where we learn from our mistakes, for most of the times, due to our inherent intrinsic egos we fail to accept and admit that we were at fault. I am a bit reluctant to say this, but for the first time in my life, I have learnt from a sense of guilt, a feeling of regret!
It is said, if you are blessed by the immortal powers up in the heaven, God will help you and bless you even when you do things that might be completely wrong. And the same nectar of truth, learning and bliss I will put up today. To the readers of this blog, this one’s not just for thanking my Mentor, but this time, for telling him and people like him, that it is you and your words that have kept God’s sermons alive. And thanks is a little less heavy word for that, so I am not using it!
This one’s a life time lesson, the one that can change destinies, change nations, change fortunes of  millions of people and places...Sir says- Wherever you go in life, do not look for projections. Because everyone in the world is not like you, can not be like you, should not be like you. Everyone has his or her own set of perceptions! So do not always look for systems that are like you ! Sometimes parallelism has be to sacrificed because the world is vivid- thoughts , ideas, ideals, can never be similar for two people! That’s how God made us.
He says- If you are in the list of people, who feel that you did not join politics because it is for bad people, you are wrong. Before saying, that the system is bad, look for it! You have to be in the system, to change the system. A silent spectator never helps. And that’s what we in India are!  We look, see, observe, and then back off. We never put our hands inside the bin to clear it, and that’s where we fail.
SO why this post is special, is because , it is not a lesson from my teacher to me, it is because it is a word that needs to travel long, from the north to the south, across the east and over the west. And for the person who gave this precious word to me, I have just a single promise to make, that come what may, from now on, your students , sir, would never back off. We can change the systems or not, that’s destined, but we will try, for sure...
