Emptiness

Emptiness is good. It renders free space. There is huge shortage of emptiness in today's India. There are people and there are objects; all around. There are endless vehicles and the sky is full of planes. I search for emptiness everyday but I cant find it. I go out to parks which are closed in the afternoon; coffee shops and Mc. Donald's thats full of young crowd. There is construction; big malls and residential building all around. There is pollution and there is too much of rush everywhere.

Emptiness brings value to our ecosystem...my coffee mug has its value because of the space it possesses.....My mind is hardly peaceful because its hardly empty anytime....There is always a rush of blood to my head and innumerable thoughts that add to turbulence of my mind....Emptiness is peace to me and my final aim..

Where the mind is without fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

- Rabindranath Tagore

Thank God he is not alive to witness the chaos, turmoil, pettiness and the death of humanity today....
