Nirvana.

Bring your mind home. Release. And relax!

Flow State.

That flow state, when spinning a Fire Poi becomes the embodiment of  current emotions and the music playing at the time is indeed spiritual.

The last time I used crayons, there was a small house by the river surrounded by lush green garden with two coconut trees, one leaning over the other that seem to be grown together and continue to stay like that forever while a boat in the river with a needlessly larger sail is aimlessly going towards the far off hills and might extend its journey into the cloudy sunset like those silhouette birds in the sky.

Just   imagine!!

A Cosmic Gift.

Life – It goes by.
As it goes by few dots are connected. Over a time it is astonishing to notice that the connected dots form a circle.

Not for a very long time though, it took me one year to see that circle.

Dec 31^st, 2012 – Dubai

It was a beach party with UV painted faces and glow sticks hanging around our necks. Fireworks, live saxophone house music and the luxury of being lost defined the way how a new year has to be revealed again. I could draw the connections to what happened on an immeasurable scale a year ago.

My love towards colours, darkness and music all came to life pulling me back into time.

Dec 31^st, 2011  – Somewhere around Bengaluru

With some sought of a plan along with my friends we were on our way to a party. Having no idea on where it is and whom we are going to hang out with, we ended up in a place which for sure I am not going be there again in rest of my life. Not that the place is terrible or something, in fact it is one of the most beautiful places I’ve witnessed in the dark, but I am not so sure where it was. 

Around five of us with some unknowns in no one’s land surrounded with huge trees and all sought of vegetation, the night is turning out to be exciting as our eyes got accustomed to that darkness. My friends and acquaintances were mere shadows in that labyrinth which possibly was imagined or actual.

There was this thumping music blasting out of the car and for me it seemed like that was the origin from where we all came. That origin of intense music, it was my landmark in the dark and the brightest thing I remember seeing was the night sky through the gaps between trees and leaves. As I stare up I time and again used to lose track on the ground reality. But as long as I hear the music I felt that I was in my territory. The place and surroundings made me feel that I am one among them and with that pride and joy I often used to burst with random dance moves. I know somewhere around all my friends also would be enjoying the same way. I retraced the path in the dark to catch up with them, while on my way, I noticed some glowing colours in the air dancing in various patterns, for an instance it looked so alien to me but in next to some time as I approached I could make out that they were some visualizations from the laptop which was placed above the car.

One after the other, all of us gathered there and it was like for the first time I developed a special liking for the visualizations. Those dancing colours appeared like some force which brought unity. Thanks to the one who arranged it. 

While it was still dark just before the sun was all set to blaze up we stopped on our way back and it was amazing to notice the surroundings gaining their life and colours back. The vastness of the place, the beauty it contained, the mystical sun rise, the vividness and the early prayers we could hear faintly from a place not so far defined the perfect morning.

I could see those shadows being peeled out of my friends which they were carrying all night, and I certainly knew there were some connections established among us.
All this was more like we all were unwrapping 2012 which came to us as a cosmic gift.
