Oh Thou, The Beautiful Star.

Oh thou, the most beautiful star,
why so distant from me, thou are?
Thou always maketh me live in fear,
that thou won't ever cometh any near.

Thou keep me awake during the twilight,
making me walk alone by the night light,
and staring at thou in the dark,
while lying on the broken bench in the park.

Though hearing only the cry of the owl,
and seeing only men on the prowl,
still on the deserted street I keep my pace,
so to dedicate few lines in thy grace.

Though mighty as thou are,
being at a place that is very far,
still thou posses a place in my heart,
from where thou will never part.

Thy love is what I will never receive,
but still that won't maketh me grieve,
as thou art the one, whom for eternity I will adore,
like I have always done before.

I see men waiting for the full moon,
as the full moon maketh the women swoon,
but I waits for the moonless night,
as it maketh thou look even more bright.

And the young wait for the dawn,
so to find with whom they can fawn,
but I waits for the dusk,
to share with thou, the pleasant musk.

I find some men, whom I reckon art loon,
who speaketh that there isn't anything more beautiful than the moon,
but on its face, the moon have many scar,
but thou face is faultless, of my most beautiful star.

Thy beauty is not the only trait,
that about thou is perceived to be great,
but are also the directions to the travelers that thou show,
when the mighty Sun and the moon fails to glow.

I wish that thou will for ever shine from above,
so even from a distance, with thou I can share my love,
and that thou will for ever be twinkling and be bright,
and ne'er be faded by the moon light.

Being Free

If you can walk your own walk,
and talk your own talk,
If you can run your own mile,
and even in plight, always wear your smile.

If you can dance on your own beat,
and can always be on your feat,
If you don't find luxury in your seat,
but keeps your cool, even in ever soaring heat.

If you can never be tired of being lone,
and can create your own masterpieces, even with few pieces of stone,
If you can do what need's to be done,
even if you are being backed by none.

If you can be a game changer,
instead of being an avenger,
If you can walk with a stranger,
and can be fearless in the face of danger.

If you are never afraid of looking younger than your age,
and lack of compassion never act as your cage,
If your action do not sprout from desire of a wage,
and if you can never be seized by a murderous rage.

If your mind don't dwell on days of yore,
and you are never afraid to loose your shore,
If you can jump from the edge of the mountain, in order to soar,
and to reach new heights, from where you can make a roar.

If you can hold everyone dear,
and greet them with a cheer,
If you can show them that you care,
and in your actions, you are always fair.

And if you can be like romantics,
and do things that are in nature, Hermetic,
And if you can live your life to the fullest,
and fight every battle with a new courage.

Then your life will be noetic,
and full of elements that are aesthetic,
and you will grow like a blossoming tree,
and you my friend, will for eternity be free.

मेरे प्रिय भारतीय दोस्तों,
आपको नये साल की हार्धिक सुभकामनाये|

अहिंसा पर एक छोटा सा लेख|

हर साल हम छप्पन सौ करोड़ जानवरों का उत्पीडन और हत्या करते है| यह हिंसा है|
पर हम यह भयानक हिंसा को रोक सकते है| हम अहिंसा को अपने जीवन का एक प्रमुख भाग बना सकते है|
हमे मास खाना, दुग्ध का प्रयोग, ऊन और रेशम को उपयोग करना और जानवरों की खाल पहेनना बंद करना होगा| हमे मनोरंजन और आनंद के लिए जानवरों का शोषण बंद करना होगा| हमे दूसरो को शिखाना होगा की जानवरों का शोषण करना गलत है| दुसरे सब्दो में, अगर हम अहिंसा और न्याय में विश्वास करते है तो हमे वीगन बनना होगा| साकाहारी जीवन शैली भी हिंसा है|

वीगन जीवन शैली दुनिया की तमाम समस्या का समाधान है|
वीगन=अहिंसा|| यह शालीनता का निम्नतम स्तर है|

आपसे अनुरोध है की आप इस बात को समझे की दही, पनीर, मख्खन और अन्य दुग्ध सामिग्री हिंसा है|
में आपको इसे समझने के लिए प्रोत्साहित करता हूँ| आपसे अनुरोध है की आप जाने की जानवरों का शोषण करने में कोई मानवता नहीं है, और अगर है तब भी यह अनैतिक और अनुचित है|

हम प्राथर्ना करते है की २०१२ में हम शांति को अपनाये और वीगन जीवन शैली का प्रचार करे|

हर्ष और शांति||

My dear Indian friends,
I wish you all a very happy 2012.

A little note about non-violence.

 Each year we torture and kill 56 billion other animals. This is great Himsa. The good news is, we can stop this terrible violence. We can bring non-violence in every aspect of our lives. We need to stop eating, wearing and using other animals. We need to stop eating meat, dairy, wearing fur, wool, leather, silk and stop using all animal products. We need to stop exploiting animals for entertainment and for our pleasure. We need to teach others that exploiting animals is wrong. In other words, if we really believe in nonviolence and justice, we should be VEGAN. It is still Himsa if we are vegetarian.

 Veganism is the answer to many of the world's problems. Veganism = Ahimsa. It is the minimum standard of decency.

 My dear Jain friends. Please understand that eating yoghurt, cheese, and other dairy products are Himsa. I encourage all to consider this. Please know that there is no "humane" way to exploit animals, and even if there were, it still would be immoral and unjust.

 May 2012 move us closer to peace. May veganism be widespread.

 Joy and peace

ज़िद है

ज़िद है खुश रहने की,
दर्द में मुस्कराने की,
खोए हुए को पाने की,
बंदिश से उसको छुड़ाने की|

ज़िद है स्नेह प्रकट करने की,
टूटे हुए दिल में प्यार भरने की,
खुद पे सितम सहने की,
और बदले में कुछ न कहने की|

ज़िद है भूख मिटाने की,
रोते हुए को हँसाने की,
बुराई को पराजित करने की,
शांति  का परचम लहराने की|

ज़िद है ऊंची छलांग लगाने की,
गिर के भी संभल जाने की,
चोट को भुलाने की,
मंज़िल को पा जाने की|

ज़िद है खुद की राह चुनने की,
और उन राहों पर निरंतर आगे बढ़ने की,
दिन में भी सपने देखने की,
और उन सपनो को पूरा करने की|

ज़िद है जीत जाने की,
और हार में जीतने वाले को सराहने की,
पर फिर से प्रयास करने की,
और कभी न हार मानने की|

ज़िद है खुद के फेसले लेने की,
और उन्हें अंत तक निभाने की,
उनके लिए कोई भी कीमत चुकाने की,
और कभी ना अफ़सोस जताने की|

ज़िद है तुम्हारी रक्षा करने की,
और इस प्रण के लिए प्राण गवाने की,
तुम्हे खुश रखने की,
और तुम्हारा साथ निभाने की|

ज़िद है सत्य मार्ग पर चलने की,
और मिथ्या को उजागर करने की,
सबका हित चाहने की,
सिद्धांततः जीवन बिताने की|

ज़िद, बस ज़िद ही तो है जीवन में,
कुछ कर गुजरने की,
ज़िद को ही हासिल कर जाने की,
असंभव को पा लेने की,
हार को मुह की खिलाने की|

Upon My Death

The day when I will be dead,

I will want you to remember what I said,

that I would much more like,

if you will celebrate what I did in my life,

than you being sad,

and mourning my being dead.

The day when I will be forever gone,
that day should not be your life's dusk, but be its dawn,
that day when my body will be nothing but a brawn,
in your heart I will want a picture of mine to be drawn,
not to remind you of my decease,
but to forever tell you that I always desired for your peace.

The day when the distance between me and the world will trine,
I will want you to know that your heart will always reside close to mine,
that day I may end up either in heaven or in hell,
but where ever I be, I will want that in happiness may you dwell,
and as when alive, I had always worked for your state of weal,
even after my demise, your welfare will persist to be my zeal.

The day when I will be dead, and you bereaved,
you won't have anyone with whom you can share you fervour,
that day I will want you adopt a being, who in this world full of people stays lonely,
and with whom your life will be once again forever be lovely,
in the form of him, with me you can share your love,
and you will be my agent of peace, my lovely dove.

The day when I will be dead,
every part of my body will became useless except my head,
but still I wont want it to go waste,
so I will ask you to cut it into pieces and to use it to enhance some non-veggies's taste,
or to put it in front of some natural beast,
so that on my body, he can feast,
because it will be useless for my body to be buried or be burned,
and by being someone food, some goodness for me, my body will earn.

The day when I will be dead,
I will ask you to donate the leftover parts of my head,
so the things that will become useless for me, like my eyes and ear,
will come into use of some unfortunate being, to see and hear,
and with those, he will be once again be happy and pleased,
seeing which, my soul will rest in peace.

Harshad Gupta

My sayings, a collection part II.

~In difficult times, when we ourselves cannot trust our own sanity, then how can we expect others to trust it.

~The biggest problem that is persistent in today's world is that every being, either it be an animal, a woman, a child or anyone else, is looked upon as a property and not as a sentiment living being. It is when we start treating them as a sentiment living being and not as a property, then only most of the problems faced by us today will be solved.

~ Never be afraid of chasing your dream, however dark the path may be. Some point of time in your life you will realize that those dream were the only thing that you had.

~We need money, not to be happy but to buy the idea that we are happy, because in reality, we all are not. 

~Never be afraid to talk to a learned man. Even a small conversation can change your life for eternity. And if you do, talk with an open mind.

 ~Only those who have enemies, needs a friend.

 ~The problem with being an Alchemist is that by the time you are one, you are not anymore interested in the gold or the elongated life you might get with the philosopher stone and elixir of life you have produced. The only thing that interests you anymore is your undying thirst for knowledge and purity.

 ~No God is greater than any of the living being, hence no life should be sacrificed/killed in his name.

 ~If you don't question your faith then your faith is in question.

 ~There is only one true God. And he is "God", who has no name, no religious followers, who is impartial to all his creatures, who is just God.

~One who smile less, lives less.

~Smile till you are alive, and you will smile for eternity.

~True beauty lie on face and lies in a compassionate heart.

~I fail to understand why the founder (or God) of ANY religion will be so partial to let one of his creation destroy all the other of his beautiful creations. What has these HUMAN done to deserve this partiality? I respect all religion and believe that all the Gods are just to all their creation, not only to human, it is just that we human were unable to get his message carefully in the first place and hence, directly abuse him by making other species suffer in his name.

~If your life is dull and dark, try to make some one smile and that smile of his will brighten your whole life.

~A smile is a source of great power, it has the ability to lighten ones life forever.

~Don't underestimate silence, it has the capability to give rise to great storms.

~Don't underestimate silence, it can give shelter to great storms.

~A smile is all I have, a smile is all I can give and a smile is all that i desire for.

~Hatred and jealousy are not synonyms. Jealousy is only a hypothesis that the other person is superior than you but hatred is a confirmation of his superiority.

~Hatred will kill you and make you exactly like the person you hate.

~Greed spares none, not even its owner.

~Hate has never killed anyone but the beholder.

~The more I know about humans, the more I wish I wouldn't have known them at all.

~X-men are mutants by seeds (birth), Wo-men are mutants by creed, but V-men (Vegans) are mutants by deeds, they have evolved into much compassionate beings. (V>W>X)

~The best way to be happy is by being the source of happiness.

~A beautiful smile sprouts from a compassionate heart.

~Love as if you have no brains so that it doesn't matter to you what you have gained or lost and love as if you have no heart so that it doesn't hurt you in the end!!

~Slaughtering thousands of innocent animals in the name of God is an unforgivable and cowardly sin. Animal liberators target corrupt and evil men who exploit the animals and society and behave barbarically. They never target innocent lives by planting bombs, killing or harassing them. This is what separates an animal liberator from a terrorist. An animal liberator lives to fight and a terrorist hides to live.

~How can someone not be dazed by seeing how people take pleasure in others agony?

~I don't break rules, because i make my own rules.

~Dream as if you are daring and dare as if you are dreaming and you will never fall.

~Partially differentiate the word with respect to yourself to get the much awaited solitude and peace!!

~ Worrying is just a waste a time. You either have the potentials to get out of a situation or you don't. If we have the potentials then however difficult the situation may be, you will find your way out of it and if you don't have potentials then however hard you try, you won't be able to get out of the situation and so whats the point of worrying anyhow?

~ I better be in harmony with myself than with those who don't respect my values.

~ The day we loose our innocence is the day we loose our greatest source of happiness.

~ My professor said that my grades don't shows my intelligence.
Well, my grades don't shows my intelligence because i am too modest to let my grades to show off my intelligence. *sigh*

You May Forget

You may forget my name,
or the field, which was my game,
you may forget who i am,
or what was my life's aim,
you may forget my face,
or the city which was my birth place,
you may forget the things that was for me to claim,
or all those things that brought me to fame,
but never forget the things for which I stood,
even though you may or may not consider it good,
as being a man I should always be known for my ideals,
as these ideals are the one which take me to my state of weal.

You may forget what I said,
or whether I am alive or dead,
you may forget that we were ally,
or whether you considered me a wise guy,
you may forget whether we had ever talked,
or whether we have on a fine morning ever walked,
you may forget that I am your abettor,
or how I wanted your life to be more brighter,
but never forget that I will be always on your side,
and if ever you need me, with you on dangerous path I will ride,
but difficulties in your course is not what I aspire,
as your euphoria is all I desire.

You may forget what you spoke,
and how those words made my heart broke,
you may forget how wildly have you acted,
and how by those act, I have been adversely effected,
you may forget how you tried to got rid,
and how you left me in the mid,
you may forget when in my need, you said good-bye,
and how those actions made me cry,
but never forget that towards you, I don't hold spite,
and even in my low consciousness, I don't intend to smite,
and never forget that, for your deeds, you have been purged,
and all I want for you is that, may you be blessed.

Events and greetings

November 1st- International Vegan Day

Lets mark this day in the honor of all those grieving mother cows who lost their young ones just for a glass of milk because we are too stubborn to get over our obsession with dairy, for all those lonely chickens who lost their loved ones just for a piece of there legs because we are too timid to find any other way to treat our taste buds and for all those innocent lives who lost their lives or the lives of their loved ones just to please a superpower who holds apathy to the agony of others because we are too meek to question him and our faith.
Happy International Vegan Day!!

When the words lost its meaning.

In the midst of the storm, stood I,
and tears came flowing down my eyes,
by knowing that it is useless speaking,
now, since the words has lost its meaning.

Trying hard to look into the past,
wondering what my memory will cast,
I saw myself doing a morning walk,
with a person with whom i had to talk.

There were lots of thing I was suppose to say,
before the very death of the day,
being uncertain that before the next day will dawn,
that person will be here or else be gone.

Despite feeling very meek,
I opened my mouth to speak,
there were lots of words which I uttered,
but out of them, was there any word which really mattered?

A lots of word were still left unspoken,
as if they would have had broken,
the heart of person whom I care,
and ultimately laying them bare.

On a contrary it would have made his day,
but still those were the word which i was unable to say,
as if I was surrounded by some fear,
as he was the one whom I hold dear.

Next dawn, I suddenly got out of my snooze,
with a very terrible and heart shaking news,
he was forever gone, never to return,
giving me sensation of a heart burn.

There were a lots of things I wanted to tell,
which now can only be done by a knell,
that I wanted him to be awesome,
and to make him blossom.

And to be merry,
so that his nights would be bright and starry.
That I only wanted to conciliate,
and never to repudiate.

But those are the words that will now remain unspoken,
making my spirit even more sunken,
and my nights much more dark,
filling it with a sound similar to hound's bark.

In the midst of the storm, standing I,
and still the tears flowing down my eyes,
knowing that I am still so meek,
that I won't be able to speak.

But I have to gather some dare,
to show how much I care,
and how much I appreciate,
so as to make him rejuvenate.

This time I had to tell,
as I don't want to knell,
and to make it useless speaking,
and to make the words loose its meaning.

Speak before it becomes useless speaking,
speak before the words loose its meaning,
speak before the very end,
speak before you will condemn.

~ Love, Light and Truth;
