I was walking on the beach, the sand tickling my feet, oblivious to the world around me, in a happy world of my own. The world was a vast expanse of nothingness, walking along the sea, water colliding with my feet and then retreating.
The sky was bereft of clouds. The land was vacant as far as the eye could gaze. Time immaterial, deeds did not matter. The world inside me was swaying to the tune of the sea. I was one with the universe, no care in the world, free and footloose.
I did not think who I was; I did not bother about what I was; life had a completely different meaning. There were no planes to catch, no money to be made, no people to tend…life was one huge state of bliss.
The world hadn’t decided that we are here to create, achieve, and possess. The world hadn’t created God and so nothing was forced in the name of God. The mind was always meditative, one with the universe.
The tongue hadn’t tasted salt, the stomach knew no hunger. The mind was pure, the thoughts clear. There was no untruth, love meant not procreating. Home was where night fell; each individual in isolated splendor.
Sleep was sans dreams. No demons to be fought within or without. It’s a life of peace, the state of nirvana that I lived. And death was not feared for I know not what it means. For I lived without passion for life that afterlife was not of concern.
There are no devils. For when the mind is tranquil devils have no place to drop anchor. Keeping your mind occupied to keep Satan away is living life in fear of losing life. Why fear of losing something that I do not own. All fears arise from the fear of losing, then why strive to own.
