Tumhen jafa se na yun baz aana chahiye tha
abhi kuch aur mera dil dukhana chahiye tha
tavil raat ke pehlu mein kab se soi hai
navid-e-subah tujhe jag jana chahiye tha
bahut qallaq hua hairat gazida tufan ko
ke kon dube kinhen dub jana chahiye tha
bujhe chiragon mein kitne hain jo jale hi nahi
savad-e-vaqt inhen jagamagana chahiye tha
ajab na tha ke qafas sath leke ud jate
tadapana chahiye tha phadaphadhana chahiye tha
ye meri har ke kar-e-janan se hara magar
bichadane wale tujhe yaad aana chahiye tha
taman umr ke aasurdagi-e-vasl ke bad
firaq aakhiri dhoka tha khana chahiye tha
We try to exert a Ted Williams kind of discipline. In his book The Science of Hitting, Ted explains that he carved the strike zone into 77 cells, each the size of a baseball. Swinging only at balls in his "best" cell, he knew, would allow him to bat .400; reaching for balls in his "worst" spot, the low outside corner of the strike zone, would reduce him to .230. In other words, waiting for the fat pitch would mean a trip to the Hall of Fame; swinging indiscriminately would mean a ticket to the minors.
Life brings what it brings. I might be young but I've learnt this: prepare for each blind corner with your strongest shoulder dropped, ready to smash through whatever is thrown at you next. Once the dust clears you will be standing tall, a champion, a victor. NOTHING will be able to knock you down once you've taken the biggest hits this life has to offer, so come on life, BRING IT!
Fortunate are those who take the first step. Someday people will realize that men and women are capable of speaking the language of the angels - that all of us are possessed of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and that we can perform miracles, cure, prophesy, and understand.
One may desire a spurious respect and precedence among one's fellow monks, and the veneration of outsiders. "Both monks and laity should think it was my doing. They should accept my authority in all matters great or small." This is a fool's way of thinking. His self-seeking and conceit just increase.
I think that if you're just a good person, you work hard, you say "yes," and you are driven, you will eventually work your way to the top. At least that's how it's been for me.
Ishwer se kabi kuch mat mango
Ishwer wo nahi deta jo aapko accha
lagta ha
Kyunki Ishwer se kabi kuch mat mang
Wo deta hain jo aapke liye accha hota
