Re-traveling

This place is a collection of a period of my life when I’d always believed in the power of words, goodness of human being and moment’s magic. I have changed now but I would like to believe in my beliefs yet again with a new light.

I hope to continue this blog yet again and I hope it would be useful to those who reads it.
Thank you for being with me in this journey and I hope you would remain.

I feel old, and I’m starting to learn many things. Paulo Coelho said :

“We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it’s our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.”

So, trusting Allah, I wish to take actions and be brave to live and learn.

Light Of Heart

Some hearts darkens, let some light in,
Open windows for forgiveness, let it be cleansed,
And let it be sealed with the Truth of the Soul.

Restlessness

I asked Baba Gee, “Sir, why we feel restlessness? Why there are so much worries around us that we are unable to sit with satisfaction and peace in heart?”
He replied, ” Look! Don’t keep your bundle of problems in front of you,
take them to Allah.
He will solve them. You struggle to solve those problems
all by yourself, but you will not be able to solve them.

~Ashfaq Ahmed

I am Sure

 

“I am as sure as I live that nothing is so near to me as God. God is nearer to me than I am to myself my existence depends on the nearness and the presence of God.”

-Meister Eckhart

A Question

“What has he found who has lost God?
And what has he lost who has found God?”

― Ibn ‘Ata’ Allah Al-Iskandari

Some Point

“In life, at sometime or another we come to a point where all relationships cease—where there is only us and Allah. There are no parents, brother or sister, or any friend. Then we realise that there is no earth under us nor is there sky above, but only Allah who is supporting us in this emptiness. Then we realise our worth – it is not more than a grain of sand or the leaf of a plant. Then we realise our existence is only confined to our being. Our demise makes not a whit of difference to the world around us, nor to the scheme of things.”

~ Umera Ahmed, Peer-e-Kamil

The Lost Place

“When you don’t know where to start,
just go to a place you miss so much.”

― Toba Beta

Moving Water — Rumi

Something very deep & profound.

intellectual voice Blog

When  you do things from your soul, you feel a river

moving in you, a joy.

When actions come from another section, the feeling

disappears.  Don’t let

others lead you.  They may be blind or, worse, vultures.

Reach for the rope

of God.  And what is that?  Putting aside self-will.

Because of willfulness

people sit in jail, the trapped bird’s wings are tied,

fish sizzle in the skillet.

The anger of police is willfulness.  You’ve seen a magistrate

inflict visible punishment.  Now

see the invisible.  If you could leave your selfishness, you

would see how you’ve

been torturing your soul.  We are born and live inside black water in a well.

How could we know what an open field of sunlight is? Don’t

insist on going where

you think you want to go.  Ask the way to the spring.  Your

living pieces will form

a harmony.  There is a moving…

Blindness

There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.”

~Mahatma Gandhi

My Secret

My secret is that I need God– that I am sick and can no longer make it alone.

I need God to help me give, because I no longer seem to be capable of giving; to help me be kind, as I no longer seem capable of kindness; to help me love, as I seem beyond being able to love.

~Douglas Coupland
