In this investiture of fleshly life A soul that is a spark of God survives . And sometimes it breaks through the sordid screen And kindles a fire that makes us half-divine. Savitri, Book 11, Canto V

Divine light

The Divine always responses to our aspiration. His light is always
there even in utter dark ignorance of this earth-nature.

Peace

















Come here and be immersed in peace. In the words of Sri Aurobindo-
'There was no step of breathing men, no sound,
Only the living nearness of the soul...'
You will find nothing exists in this universe except a vast infinite sense of peace. Do you exist? Yes and also no. Your realisation is your self and there can be nothing else. Is it your own realisation or someone's where you have been erased to the last? Do not ask anything-go on ...

Alone















He is alone but not lonely. To be alone you must be stripped off everything you have. Then stand apart not to be a bystander but to muse with the essence of your existence like this tree.

Bleeding leaves



















The leaves are seen bleeding as a branch of the tree they belong to has been cut. If you are able to be one with the vegetative nature -you will see that they also feel pain like you. Be a musician to create a music with the pain, affliction and also love of the vegetative nature.

A prayer


















This is the time when the Earth offers her prayer to the Heaven for her suffering children.

Drunk



















The moon has filled the cup of the night. Come out in this moon-lit night here and get drunk like this night.

Purity















This is purity of innocence. This is the essence of soul and without this we are far from the Divine. No religion can be of any help for getting near to the God without this.

Here lives a fairy



















This is an image of forest. I love forest like many others of this world where the forestland is gradually decreasing. Civilisation has many extremely bad side effects and one of them is industrialisation. Modern and civilised man is more happy to live in a city than to live in a forest.
Man is a creating (and also creative) animal-but at the same time selfishly destroying. A Rembrandt or an Einstein has not contributed to the cause of the Earth or Nature. He is sustained by nature and for his comforts he uses her all conceivable potentialities. But man has not on his own given anything to this earth-at least that much an insect needs to live on.
But there is a personal truth behind this image. A fairy very much afraid of her diminutive forest habitat requested me to create one for her. So I dedicate this creation to that fairy.

Revelation



















I do not know how the word 'Revelation' can be expressed with words. Perhaps poets can. But from my own experience I am more comfortable to express what I feel with this above photo to make a sense of the caption.
