یکسوئی ہے، حاصلِ جہدِ مسلسل تحریک ہے، یکجائیِ خالص کا تسلسل کیونکر کرے انسان، تکمیل کا دعویٰ مخلوق کو زیبا نہیں خالق کا لبادہ ہر سعیِ انسان فطرت میں ہے پابند اس بات میں پنہاں ہے  انسان کا مقصد تطہیر ہو، تعمیر ہو تکمیلِ خودی تک تبدیلیِ افکار بس مطلوب یہیں تک۔ ثمین صدف

Selective perception; it’s limitations, inevitability and utility: The human being is bound by natural laws. There is a finite, limiting trait to every single aspect of his life. The same applies to his perceptibility. He is bound to be selective and limited in his perception. It helps the human being to notice the details. To focus and stay put. The drawback though is that this sort of perceptibility comes in different shapes, sizes and shades thus the lens needs to be changed often for if worn long enough, every single concept and fact becomes tinted.  The human mind is susceptible to the method a concept is perceived in and it stores each such information automatically. e.g  If a person as a child is constantly exposed to one aspect of a story, image or conversation. He will retain that memory and whenever that issue or topic is bought up, the mind will automatically offer images and bits and pieces from its stores as ready interpretation. This is where it becomes importan

The paradoxical duality of life, nature and everything around us points so obviously to a wholeness and oneness  that is bigger than what our minds can ever attempt to conceive but still we are such fools that we dare to challenge it every day , every moment , every second of our existence. It’s always Us vs Them, You or me, my way or your way! There is only one!  In nature we see that each twosome has their time, their say, their way! The sun sets to let the darkness cover and then the night fades to let the dawn spread. In people we see the worst helping a thirsty dog and the best acting greedily like a dog. In the end it will all boil down to who stood where in this constant struggle between the two everywhere. Will we be the ones who broke out of the dark like the dawn or will we  be the ones who tried to cover the light and spread our darkness. We will, eventually fulfil our destiny of reaching a state of wholeness but to reach there we have to accept this duality w

The human being, even the brightest mind is subject to going awry in this changeable world. This inconsistency has a purpose, a logic, a method often misunderstood by the fickle man in a fickle world. Quite similar to a child whose fancy is caught by a butterfly on his way back home and he starts chasing it. Lost in time and space. Caught up in a temporary wonder. In the mean while God moves a  poisonous snake away from the child to a mouse. Then the tree sheds a branch so that the child can trip and fall and an ant hill is saved . The child gets up and the butterfly is gone. He looks around and remembers he had to go home. He is back on the path. The lone wolf who passed that path just a while ago is long gone totally unaware of the juicy prey it never knew was so near by. The wind has made the apple tree shed some apples for the child’s basket. The flowers have woken up to brighten his morning along the way but the child oblivious to what’s around him , prances on; a bit saddene

There is huge problem with our vision. Yes! We can’t see! Us humans! Nature created opposites and pairs just so we could see and learn. How can we measure the purity of something if we aren’t aware of the impurity?! How would we notice the significance of a being or a matter if we weren’t  able to notice the insignificance of the very same?! How would we notice the white if there  wasn’t any  black?! How would we know kindness if we hadn’t known tyranny?! How would we know freedom if we hadn’t known oppression?! How would we know surrender if we hadn’t known God?! Our tainted vision hinders us from seeing the white in the black, seeing the winner in the loser , from seeing the truth in the lie and from seeing eternal empowerment in surrender! #havefaith #surrender

The dream sellers: What the mind can conceive it can achieve! Man conceived a place where delusions and deceptions could be turned into a reality thus the ‘idiot box’! One can’t really blame the young generation for thinking that patience is to wait while the vending machine processes their request or the video uploads or downloads 😏.  Two complete generations used to getting a result at a push of a button cannot recognise what strive and struggle is, what patience is. Just yesterday after about a month I sat down with the kids to see what they were watching. I saw only two advertisements . Kids saying: میری ہر خوشی بسکونی! If only this could actually happen! 🙄 These people need to meet our children and understand that happiness is not as simple as bisconni! Men on motorcycles holding on to women saying: گرپ سروس جیسی تو فکر کیسی! One wonders for a moment at what he’s actually saying and what he’s holding on to. Genius! Pure genius! Not only do the dreads in the tyre
