The Universe in me !

Asked the Nature , why you give lives and why you take them away? 
Nature answered me 'My boss gave me the freedom to do so !' !

Asked the fire , why do you show the path , why you get provoked to be an ambush and swoop the woods ?
Fire answered me 'My boss gave me the freedom to do so !'

Asked the earth , why you  let the plants blossom from your womb , and why you have to be a  giant crack and swallow everything resting on you into your mouth?
 Earth answers me 'My boss gave me the freedom to do so !'

Asked the water , why are you so pure , and be the main element to make living , and why you become a monster wave and gulp the innocents? 
Water answers me 'My boss gave me the freedom to do so !'

When I insisted that I am committed to know the answers,they all took me to 'Eyes', A pair of eyes ! Ordinary but big eyes ! 

I asked 'the eyes' who are you?

It replied , "I am the one who you are looking for !"

I asked , are you the boss ? It replied " if you agree !"

I was surprised , happy , scared and filled with entire emotions of the world !

I tried controlling my emotions and asked why the five elements are pleasant sometimes and sometimes be cruel?
 
The Eyes replied "they are just like you,

Like the nature , you might give birth ,but when you sit ,stand and sneeze you take lives which might be invisible to you but means a lot to themselves  !

Like the fire , you burn like a candle for your family but sometimes burn with enmity and revenge for a person who might be also a member in his own family  !

Like water , you be so cool sometimes but hurt many into tears !

Like earth you be so patience sometimes but burst  for unbearable reasons !

Like you ,them and any other element , I just create and give them the freedom to act !

Listening to this , I breath fast.I can't wait to see what's in those eyes ?

Would there me moon in one eye and sun in another ?

Would there be the all the planets in one eye and the stars in another ?

Would there be  100's of galaxies in one eye and black holes in another ?

How those eyes manage all this ?

 To know the truth I jumped near and looked into those eyes !!!

Surprised to see there is nothing but my reflection in both the eyes !

I asked ,"there is nothing in your eyes except me !"

The eyes answered ,"yes as my job is to just watch you."

I got annoyed, and unsatisfied  for the answer , asked , "if you keep watching me all the time who watches the universe ?"

 

The eyes replied , " well I am watching you in this universe and the universe in you " !!!

 

And I opened my eyes when the clock stuck at 7 and went to make breakfast !

నేను మా బాబు కోసం వ్రాసిన మోదటి లాలి పాట.

నేను మా బాబు కోసం వ్రాసిన మోదటి లాలి పాట.


చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా,
నీలీలలు చాలయ్యా,పాలు త్రాగ రావయ్యా.

చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా.

కొప్పు మీద నెమలి కన్ను లేదు గాని చిన్ని నాన్నకు,
కొప్పు మీద నెమలి కన్ను లేదు గాని చిన్ని నాన్నకు,
పురి విప్పిన మనసంది, మనసులోన దైవముంది.

చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా,
చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా.

అరచేతిలొ వెదురు వేణువు లేదుగాని బుజ్జి నాన్నకు,
అరచేతిలొ వెదురు వేణువు లేదుగాని బుజ్జి నాన్నకు,
ప్రతి పలుకూ చిలక పలుకులే, ప్రతి మాటా తేనె ఝల్లులే.

చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా,
చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా.

బంగారు మొలతాడు లేదుగాని చిట్టి నాన్నకు,
బంగారు మొలతాడు లేదుగాని చిట్టి నాన్నకు,
వళ్శంతా పసిడి వెన్నెలే, చంద్రబింబమంటి మోములే.

చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా,
నీలీలలు చాలయ్యా,పాలు త్రాగ రావయ్యా.

చిన్ని చిన్ని కృష్ట్నయ్యా, నువ్వే మా కన్నయ్యా.

My first lullaby ,I have written for my son years ago !

Oh lord Krishna ,look at my own sweet little Krishna !

He might not possess a peacock feather on his hair like you , 

but happy is his heart , bliss is his soul  like a dancing peacock in the rain , noticed haven't you ?

Oh lord Krishna ,look at my own sweet little Krishna !

He cannot blow the flute and charm the girls like you , but every little baby word he Speaks, every little sound he makes is a feast for my ears , you know this don't you?

Oh lord Krishna , look at my own sweet little Krishna !

I certainly cannot afford to decorate my baby like Yashoda did to you , but doesn't his body shines in the sun and glows in the moon like a mountain dew ?

Oh lord Krishna , look at my own sweet little Krishna !

I know you won't stop showering smiles on me , though I compared a tiny human being with the maker of this universe like you ! 

I dared this as I know ,every being has a bit of you , and serving them is serving you !

My Bottle 'God' sambar !

Today I wanted to cook bottle gourd sambar which was my mom's recipe ! Went to an Indian market ,

Saw a big green fresh bottle gourd which was perfect for my sambar .

But a shinny Indian scarf drew my attention . Since I had little money left  that day , I got compromised on the bottle gourd and bought the scarf ! I substituted my mom's  Bottle gourd sambar recipe with cucumber insted  !!! 

This whole episode made me to relate like this ....

The farmer who have put the seed , did the  hardwork, spend time to grow this vegetable and calls it as bottle gourd ...resembled for me the very first person , who discovered that there should be some superpower in this universe who is driving the entire matter to exist and he named that superpower  as 'God' !

Then I compared the super market owner who got this bottle gourd from the farmer and preserved it ,cared for it, in a suitable environment ...to the messengers  of god , who not only trusted and believed in god but also tried to pass this precious treasure unaltered  to the next generations !

Then came my mom who bought the bottle gourd and since she knew her kids are fussy and messy to eat the bottle gourd if she cooks as a whole , she cut it into 3 pieces and made curry , sambar and pickle  just for us to get all the goodness of the bottle gourd ...resembled for me the person who might have figured out the incapability of coming generations who won't be able to carry the true strength of god as a whole ,so he might have created a human form to the God , made an idol, idolised him,personified him and personalised him ,!

And then it's  me in my childhood who not only chose to just eat the bottle gourd sambar , but also deliberately announced that other dishes as bad and very bad , unable to realise even the other dishes have same vegetable , but in a different form...reminds me of the people who fight and debate that ' only their own god is great '!

Then comes the adult but dumb me again , who sometimes spoil my mom's sambar recipe ,some times over cook the bottle gourd , and sometimes even dare to substitute the bottle gourd with cucumber  and yet call it 'bottle gourd sambar' and serve the family ....reminds me of many of us  who talks about god ,discuss about god ,give crowns and thrones to god ,pray to god in misery and also finally forget god easily for pleasure and money !
