"Solitude" is something that most of us dread but there are still some of us who love it. It so happens that whether we like it or not, all have to face it sometime or the other... why not, if we just give it a thought, we'll see that we have come all alone in this world and it is all alone that we have to leave too...
I have been driving my bike since class 11th... some 8 odd years till now... most of the time alone... people often listen to music while driving... what i do is i recite 'shlokas' from the Bhagwat Gita in my mind... there's a constant tape running inside me while driving... newayz it's about recently when i joined some coaching which is about 18 - 19 kms from my home. The shortest route that i undertake happens to pass through the crematorium grounds of our city.Almost everyday i see corpses being taken morning and evening to their final destination.It's not much difficult to think then that i also have to endup like this... and while i go on driving, i feel as if i am trying to run away from the inevitable...no one knows what will happen next... life is like the same journey that can end anytime without any notice... what if i meet with an accident the next second...we youngsters are so energetic about everything but we feel remembering GOD and chanting HIS name is only the duty of oldies who have nothing to do and are in the last stages of their lives...we need to think again... saying a lot here would amount to giving unnecessary gyan but we deny the very truth of life...and people actually find it strange wen someone of my age says he or she indulges in praying and meditating everyday.Let them think so but i would never forget to thank HIM for giving me this life and would pray to HIM to show me the right path each day. Also ask HIM to be with me throughout my life coz people will come and go but i know eventually i have to complete this journey alone!!
