                 -1-
मन अथाह सागर सा तेरा,
अनगिन भावों का आगार,
माप सका  कहाँ कोई पर,
उस ममता की गहराई माँ।

                  -2-

तुझसे सुने   कहानी किस्से ,
फ़िर बचपन में पहुंचाते हैं,
उन  वक्तों      को याद किया, 
और आँखे भर भर आई माँ ।

                  -3-

चंचल मन की अगम पहेली,
कब       किसने सुलझाई माँ,
दूर    सूदूर बसे      रिश्तों में,
बस डूबी     और उतराई माँ ।

                 -4-

यादों के       झुरमुट में खोई,
लगती        कुछ तरसाई माँ,
थकी और उलझी उलझी सी,
छुईमुई      सी    मुरझाई माँ । .

                   -5-

तेरे होने      पर कब समझा,
तुझको     खोने का अहसास,
तड़पन      और घुटन दे गई,
तेरी चुपचाप      विदाई माँ ।

                 -6-

चेतन मन  की चिंताए सब,
शाँत हुई,    साँस रुकी जब,
बन्धन     टूटे ,    अपने छूटे,
रिश्ते    हुए    परछाई     माँ ।

                  -7-

थमी हुई      साँसो ने तेरी,
गहन मर्म यह समझाया,
भीड़ भरी इस दुनियाँ में,
क्या होती    तनहाई माँ ।

Doing Nothing - Om Prakash Nautiyal

opnautiyal.blospot.com

One is often confronted with the question: “what are you doing these days?” if you say that you are doing nothing. They look shocked as if doing nothing is a simple task. Some even dare to continue their quizzing, “How do you pass your time then ”. They tend to make you believe that time waits for you for its time passing , and the time will stand frozen if you do not let it pass. Had this been so every individual might have his/her own time zone. They probably are confused with the theory of relativity (they might not have dared to try it when the question on relativity was asked in their examination.) and treat time as fourth dimension whose origin is different for different persons. They do not seem to believe that time and tide and tide wait for none.

I have experienced that doing nothing is the most challenging task for it is simply impossible to have a time frame to finish it .If you do something , you may probably have a schedule but to work timelessly without a schedule makes doing nothing such an Herculean task that people often tend to engage them in useless activities and are rather scared from the thought of doing nothing and think that it is probably impossible for them to cope up to this challenge .One more discouraging factor for them may be that they think if they tirelessly engage themselves in doing nothing they may not get time to relax after doing nothing .The very thought is scary . For a wise man has said that the most satisfying thing in life is: “To do nothing and take rest afterwards”

All this daunt them to no limit to keep them away from doing nothing and they start believing that doing nothing is impossible. They forget that there have been great people in this world whose deeds continue to inspire and motivate us and they have simply discarded this theory that doing nothing is impossible. They have stood up against all odds and experienced the fruits of doing nothing. It is only a matter of mustering enough courage and making a start for doing nothing and one is bound to succeed. I reproduce below the golden words of a great non doer

“Who says nothing is impossible, I have been doing nothing for years ”

“The writing on the wall” – The World of Face book

I was just scanning an article which mentioned that millions of children world over gets scolding or punishment for scribbling or writing on the school or house walls. Human beings have this instinct of communicating and this gets a trigger in children just by the sight of an empty wall to the displeasure of their elders who are keen to maintain the walls bright and clean.

The creations of ancient poets, artists were also carved in stones used in forts, temples and other structures of importance for the obvious reason that walls serves as huge canvass, have endurance and lasting visibility to audiences of several generations. The origin of the phrase”writing on the wall “is also reportedly attributed to the supernatural writings on the walls of Palace of Babylon which appeared for predicting future.

Gone are the days! And we just do not like to read “the writings on the wall” anymore, more so if the wall belongs to us .We get terribly upset and agitated by this creative trespassing.

But please hold on. Look and behold! There is another world coexisting with our world and that is the World of FACE BOOK.
The inhabitants of this world are a completely transformed lot. They invite and welcome others to write on their walls and feel happy, cheerful & obliged. So please do not suppress your creative instincts .Please come, you are welcome to write anything on my wall .

Long live The world of Facebook
