The essence of your true origin

Rekha Sahay

You think of yourself
as a citizen of the universe.
You think you belong 
to this world of dust and matter.
Out of this dust
you have created a personal image,
and have forgotten
about the essence of your true origin

  1. That’s a fabulous reminder Rekha that we all human should not forget. We are so proud of our name and wealth and this and that… But when we realize from what we have been created then we would be humbled.

    1. Indeed Chirodeep . One one the Greta’s shlokas has a similar meaning –
      खाली हाथ आए और खाली हाथ चले। जो आज तुम्हारा है, कल और किसी का था, परसों किसी और का होगा। तुम इसे अपना समझ कर मग्न हो रहे हो। बस यही प्रसन्नता तुम्हारे दु:खों का कारण है।
