As you sit on those rocks
Lost in wandering thoughts
Let mist and rain wrap you
And wind whisper songs

Shanti 😇😂 #rishikesh #peace #rishikeshdiari Shanti 😇😂

मन के झोले में
कितना कोलाहल
कितनी हलचल
यों ही
कितनी बातें 
मैं खुद से करता
आवाज़ें अंदर गूँजें
मेरे अंदर का शोर बड़ा,

ना जानें
हिसाब कौन सा 
गणित कौनसी
मुनाफ़ा कैसा
मैं विचलित
कुछ तो खोजा करता हूँ,

मुझे एक आवाज़ मिले
कोई तो एक नाद मिले
मेरे मन को सीचें
कि शोर मेरा वो शांत करे,
आवाज़ क़ोई 
नि:शब्द 
मेरी खामोशी से 
जो बात करे

Do we need to know all languages, words and letter Do we need to know all languages, words and letters to have a connect?

These morning bird chirruping looks like heaven. A short drive from #rishikesh , lesser known #jhilmillake  is a conservation sanctuary that is habitat to some 700 species of birds. Some are summer guests, others are winter visitors and a few have their permanent home here only. 

Sitting on top of a watch tower all by ourself, these sounds were as healing to out soul as any silence could be. If you are around, do explore this hidden gem.

We sometimes get selfish for we wish that certain We sometimes get selfish for we wish that certain places remain as unknown to masses as much possible. This is one such place i #rishikesh 

As we were roaming around on the fringe of #rajajinationalpark, we happened to meet Ashish, an amazing soul . Within minutes, we started chatting like some old friends. Ashish has also been exploring the area around and he took us to this hidden gem, a small water source with crystal clear water, solitude with water sounds and yes some nice fish pedicure.

Indeed something offbeat, away from the hustle bustle of rishikesh. Wish such places remain hidden and pristine as long as possible away from mad tourism rush.

मन ऊँचा इन बादलों स मन ऊँचा 
इन बादलों सा हो जाये 
उधेड़ बुन से 
ऊपर कहीं उठ जाये
आये तू 
हर सुबह 
गहरी धुंध सरीखी 
कि
सफ़ेद बादलों में अपने 
भर तू मुझे ले जाये ll

Never give up. Is it? . 'Giving up' is as fine as Never give up. Is it?
.
'Giving up' is as fine as 'Not giving up'. At times, you yield to your loved ones and then there are times when you give up for yourself. There is no harm in letting things go that drain you and do not lighten you up. I get surprised for how each of us is a different person with our own set of choices. What matters to me may not even be relevant for you and vice-versa. So giving up by itself is also subjective 🙂 it's fine to hike to the point that you enjoy and then give up. Reaching to peak, may be some other day or never. And then there are times when you would love to push all limits and won't give up. After all, it should be your choice and not an external bill-board, that should tell you for not giving up. You are light and you are sun-shine 😇

Slicing your melancholy into thousand pieces and t Slicing your melancholy into thousand pieces and then savouring it with a glass of wine one piece at a time.

Filling your bubbles with mist and haze and then enjoying piercing them one by one.

Few pictures are just not perfect. They are a mix of thousand contradictory thoughts, emotions and feelings. There is purity and then there is melancholy, that is dark enough to let you explore the walls around you with the touch of your palms and fingers slowly moving along until you find the corner to sit away from everyone and everything, just being with yourself, enjoying your delicious solitude😊
