Naam Khumari
In this life, everyday that we get, each moment that we have, is truly so precious. At times, we forget the value of what we have been given by the creator. There are so many things which happen in the world. We get caught in our troubles and we forget what has been given to us. If we see a diamond lying in dust, what would we do? Would we let the diamond lie in dust, or would we pick it? A diamond does not lose its preciousness even when it is in dust. The dust would be gone, once you wash it. The value of this breath does not fade because of our problems.
What is this life? What is this human body? It has been said, that this human body is the door to salvation, whilst we are alive. There are many people who read and read, I give them this example, If you are hungry and people discuss about food, will that be able to satisfy your hunger? What does this heart search for? It searches for joy, but which joy? Not the one which depends on circumstances, but the joy which is constant, the joy that is within each one of us.
Enjoy the presence of the divine, which is everlasting, which is within you. I do not ask people to leave the world. Take care of your responsibilities in this world, but do not forget your responsibility towards your heart. Then there will be gratitude. Then would you realize who you are and what has been given to you. Your heaven is in your heart, your god is in your heart. Understand this.
I have written this bhajan and I would like to read it to you:
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Is jagat ke faisle, nahin hak mein tere sada
Mushkilon mein jo saath de, uska tu lihaj kar
Hey manuj, ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Jo mila woh kho diya, ab tu karta hai fikar
Dhani se nirdhan bana, ab to kuch laaj kar
Hey manuj, ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Gyaan deep tujhko mila, taine usse bujha diya
Is andheri raat mein apna bhi kuch khyaal kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Jo prem ki dori teri, baandhe thi tujhe prem se
Jab se woh dori kati, ab girne ka intezaar kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Rehna nahin, tu jaayega, ye dukh tujhe satayega
Apne jism kaa dhyaan chhod, har swans mein dhyaan kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Jisne sabkuch diya, usko tune thukra diya
Ab dawa ka kya asar, bas gam ka ilaaj kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Is jagat ki gali mein, kitne aaye aur gaye
Tu bhi apne safar ka, kuch to intezaam kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
Prem taine kaafi kiye, par saccha premie naa mila
Prem kahe guru preet se, apna beda paar kar
Hey manuj ek kaam kar, nij hriday mein didar kar
Jo tere se door hai, usko apne paas kar
