"TIMELESS MOMENTS"

Time is an essential dimension of the universe and it is essential component of life. We don’t see time but still everything moves around the invisible time.

Moments are experience of life in present. It has nothing to do with time. For example, in the night when we see stars in open sky we feel them as real. But the fact is quite different. The star we saw as twinkling might have died ages back and what we see is just the light of star that is still travelling. So the experience of our moment have no connection with time. Moments are here and now.

Living in time dimension and living in moments can make the life entirely different. In the time dimension comes, past, present and future and this is how we know to live. But in moments all these dimensions of time goes off and only experience remains. The pure experience of the present. The child lives life in moments and take the life as it comes. But the time has its own significance and value. Time helps us manage and organize the living in much better way. But at the same time, time driven life gets dull and monotonous. Its unfortunate that as we grow and move away from childlike lifestyle our life start revolving only around time and living the life as it comes in moments, slowly fades away. Time is more about improving standard of living and moments are more about quality of life experience. When we remember good or bad time of past, we mainly remember those moments only that made the experience eternal for us.

The concept of satyam, shivam, sundaram points at moment only. The ultimate truth is all about- present. Shiv means eternal which is nothing but present moment and life is beautiful when we experience it the way it comes every moment. Moments are pure, unbiased and full of natural experience.

Kabir has said, kal kare so aaj kar ; aaj kare so aab. It points again to this very present moment. One of the great saint when questioned about what they do different from rest has answered, “I eat when I eat and I sleep when I sleep.” I think it is the most difficult thing to do for us indeed. So simple yet so difficult to live in present. Our time driven life has made us divided and without life, like a dead-man-walking. The modern man is living longer life, more advanced, having more knowledge of world around us but unfortunately this modern man is less lively and devoid of self-knowledge. The stress and frustration is increasing and time is becoming the precious commodity. In securing better and better tomorrow this modern man is losing every moment…..which is full of life.
