Hope So,.......

Image
The election results are out. For a change, the People of India are thinking on the same lines .I really smell hope in the air, we are thinking beyond religion, race and region .We are looking towards a better India . I always like to play optimistic even if I don’t sound one.  The world has gone crazy and probably there is no option left other than optimism.Hope has been declared the word of the decade .Books, TV, Newspapers are using ‘Hope’ on every other occasion. Perhaps, Stephen King was right in saying “Hope is the good thing may be the best thing and no good thing ever dies”. Don’t they say, Hope is for the people who don’t have any thing else to fall upon. The people of my country have shown that they are not hopeless people. So Mr. Gandhi,we are looking forward and we are looking with all our hopes because that’s all we are left with.   (The Pic is taken from  Shepherd Fairey Obama’s illustraion  and Text by Mystic Darvesh)

'My wish list for ‘the election festival 2009’

                                                   (Picture from reuters.com and text by   MysticDarvesh)                           I don’t want Mr. L.K.Advani to be my P.M. We deserve better and not some eighty something Head of the state, whose last wish before dying is to sit on that coveted chair and that too just for the sake of it.         I wish Varun Gandhi loses this election. I wish Varun Gandhi being taught a lesson early in his life that ' it’s not easy to humiliate Indian Muslims or any community '. Elections should be won on anything, but hatred.                              Sajjad Lone should win. His motive can be power, money or a Kashmir resolution. Last option looks bleak,everything else will be available 24x7 in the Parliament. I wish him good luck just for the sake of participating and telling his friends and foes “let’s move on”…..      

“My apologies to Khwaja ”

(Text and pictures by Mystic darvesh) I went to Hazrat Khwaja Bakhtiyar Kaki‘s Mazaar.This was my first visit to Hazrat Kaki’s dargah.I have been living in the city of Hazrat Nizammuddin Auliya for three long years .Being a self proclaimed Darvesh, I should have visited and offered fatiha on Hazrat Kaki's mazaar on the very first day I came to the city. Today, I went there and offered my apologies to one of the greatest and renowned Muslim Sufi mystic,saint ,scholar and disciple of Khwaja Garib Nawaz. I closed my eyes and felt the forgiveness in the air. It was early morning, the day had just begun.I was one of the first few visitors of Khwaja Kaki.The whole place was too calm, serene and everything looked Divine. I entered the Bab-e-Khwaja, freshly mopped alleys and beautifully crafted doors led me to the mazaar. I offered Fatiha on the mazaar which gave me a great sense of relief. I really felt blessed by Khwaja at that moment .Maybe, it was early morning bliss but

(The pics are taken from google images and text by Mystic Darvesh) God can’t be deaf I have lived in too many places and specifically rented places. I have always been fortunate enough to find a place in proximity to God’s home, despite being a sinner. A sin is always too good to resist. The place I call home and where my parents live has a Masjid and Imambargah in the next lane. The house where I live in Delhi has a Gurudwara next to it. I have lived in so many places with Hindu Gods always peeping at my room and watching me performing all those sins . All these Gods are different, they sure are .However, they do have one thing in common they all have loud speakers .Even a sinner knows, God always has a reason.He cannot be deaf so, there should be some other reason. I think these loud speakers are there to declare that each of these God’s home has a different message for the world. They are also telling people who work in night and that too for the western world ‘the
