well.........

standing under a tree almost on the edge of a cliff looking upon a valley.its pleasant, serene, calm and gratifying to self. admiring and just taking in the beauty around. the mountains..... so mighty and unyielding............and yet so composed n peaceful. n every little thing around complimenting them. nature in perfect harmony. nothing on the mind.......... just the scenery n the coolness of the wind. silence.......
n then suddenly the silence transforms into an empty stillness. everything suddenly goes lull. the birds r quite........ even the trees feel like they have stopped breathing. the wind vanishes. time stops for that moment.
then it happens...... the earth starts to rumble n move. starts to shudder......... holds on firmly to the tree and starts to panic. all of a sudden notice the mountains........which seem to be shaking n trembling not unlike the leaves of the tree. all at once feeling the earth move beneath the feet. such power!!! such authority....... such awe....... going rite through. in that moment feeling more like a part of this 'life' than ever before. "creation"............... was it something like this? the terms 'tandav' and 'shiv' come to mind. ' to move the mountains' they say................... to see such a spectacle........ feel humbled...... overwhelmed and overcome. is this what's getting lost??
it stops and its not the same............... but hw long can that last. lose sight of whats significant and meaningful pretty soon. do extraodinary experiences really change perspectives and reason?
well.................
