Happiness is in you
Senses, you refine; mind, you define.
Intellect, you sharpen; self, you enlighten.
Happiness, you will have; life will brighten.
Then hardly can you complain.

Atma
Atma is the Self,
made of Prana, Mana and Vak:
Motion, Consciousness, and mater.
Intellect sheaths Atma;
Mind sheaths Intellect;
Senses sheath Mind;
Body sheaths Senses;
Aura sheaths Body.
Thus,
Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atherwa sum up.
Body includes brain.
Brain includes intellect,
And Consciousness.
So Body and Energy
Are the two parts
That join to make Life.
Thus,
Science approves of.
We deny not both statements,
one by subconscious mind
and the other by conscious mind.
That is why
Religion and Science coexist.

Mind your happiness
Subtract the moments of unhappiness.
That is not the life you have lived.
Learn to adapt to the environs
That you will have to live with.
Happiness rests with your haves,
Not with what you aspire to have.
Then readily comes happiness,
Which is the life you have lived.
Mahatma Gandhi found happiness
Even in the life of the prison.

Your aura
Senses, you canalize; don’t master.
Mind, you rationalize; don’t block.
Intelligence, you crack; don’t lull.
Self, you meditate, don’t pride.
Your aura will be in expansion.

Be unassailable
Physical strength for bed,
Intellectual capacity for head,
Emotional maturity for mind,
Aesthetic sensibility for senses,
Human values for heart,
And spiritual depth for soul,
One must develop utmost.
Then the one is unassailable

Reverence brings resonance
Whether you have God or not,
You should have someone to revere.
Unless you have reverence
You can’t find any resonance,
For healthy mind and aura.

The suppressed passion
Women, often, refuse to succumb
To the lust of their higher ups
Who are admirable though,
Not that they loathe their heroes
But that they mind their peers.

Define insanity, define me
'A spectrum of behaviours characterised by
certain abnormal mental or behavioural patterns
that may manifest as violation of societal norms
including becoming a danger to themselves and others or
nowadays denoting mental instability'
Hey! wiki define abnormal, because I don't understand
Tell me who decides societal norms, cause I didn't contribute to them
Let me be dangerous, let me be myself
The stability of whom should I look at?
Define love, define pain, define sufferance
define mercy, define justice, define tolerance
define passion, define sex, define complexity
define insanity, please define me
Take me out of this dream, I can't catch the reality
lead me through this wet fog, guide me home
all my senses are enhanced when
I'm abandoned to your memory
Borderline attitude of being nervous, occasionally anguished
a stormy spirit supposedly calm, a balance quite disturbed
people are arrogant with strange guys
people are scared about non-linear minds
are you among them?
Define love, define pain, define sufferance
define mercy, define justice, define tolerance
define passion, define sex, define complexity
define insanity, please define me

Mission of human being
The mission of a woman
Is to excite men around
And the vision of a man
Is to get birth in their mind.
Both agitate in this direction
And drain away their libido
Without hatching their eggs.

The Unattainable asylum
Brainless beauty is a peril.
Brain without beauty is still a thrill.
To me, however, you are a thrill.
My intellect, you titillate.
My heart, you mutilate.
I stick to the job and this venue
Only to see you and be near you.
When the job and the venue go
Where will I go sans you?
How shall I live sans you?
In two years comes my civil death.
Along with it, goes my sensual death.
It is in your hand to put it off
By answering my calls
And sending your smiles.
Can you promise, my dear?

Which is bliss?
Risky path to Lord Amarnath-
Safety one to Lord Biswanath.
Which do you prefer-
Travel or destination,
Life or salvation?
Effortless low contours-
Restless high contours.
Which do you like-
Peace or wealth,
Reach or promise?
Abstinence to please God-
Worldly to gratify senses.
Which do you value-
Penance or romance,
Bliss or thrill?
A bird at hand or two in bushes.
Which do you take-
Present or future-
Existence or inference?
Live in what you are
Rather than
What you will be in.
It is the bliss.

To live young
Tone the muscles;
Strain the glands;
Inflate the lungs;
Give rest to the brain.
Your physique is kept.
Eat fruits and leaves
And only boiled cereals;
Take plenty of water;
Fast once in a while.
Your health is kept.
Keep away from sun;
Wash and bathe often;
Groom your look;
Pride on your figure.
Your vision is in shape.
Recall the rose of others;
Forget the thorn of others;
Show gratitude;
Earn one’s goodwill.
Your mind is at rest.
Know the averment;
Listen to the environment;
Seek answers to whys;
Ponder over your thoughts.
Your intellect is alert.
Study the romance;
Enjoy the music;
Contact with heart;
love the opposite sex.
Your passion is up.
Then you live young for long.

Franks 2000 Tv
Risin above the city, blocking out the noonday sun
It dwarfs the mighty redwoods and it towers over everyone
I still remember when that delivery truck came down our block
What a lucky guy, I hear he got the last one in stock
And the neighbors are just green
They say, thats the biggest screen weve ever seen!
Its franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everbody come and see(franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Thats franks remote control, you can look, but dont touch it, please
cause franks the one in charge and he decides what everybody sees
The pictures crystal clear and everything is magnified
Robert deniros mole has got to be ten feet wide
Everybody in the town
Can hear those 90,000 watts of dolby sound
And Im mighty proud to say
Now I can watch the simpsons from thirty blocks away
On franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Im gonna get one of my own real soon
Its like having a drive-in movie in your own living room
Whoa, hey now... hey now na na na now
Hey now... hey now na na now
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Got a two year warranty on parts and labor
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)

Happiness To Me
Does Happiness depend upon comfort? ’
The answer is definitely a big, ‘No! ’
Happiness lies in not comforts alone!
Happiness is not a static quality of the
human mind, body and soul.
All can’t remain happy all the time.
It would be foolishness to wish for a life,
filled with happiness alone;
Life could become boring, when happiness is prolonged.
Even A pauper can be happier than the prince.
Even A beggar smiles and sleeps well, despite much strife.
Happiness is a frame of mind that’s dynamic in nature;
Happiness is a kind of mood of feeling very well;
Happiness is a state of one, when life seems worth living;
Happiness is all within;
Happiness is in giving;
Happiness is in sharing;
Happiness does not depend on comforts;
Happiness cannot be bought by money;
Happiness is not all luxury;
Happiness is in being child-like, though adult;
Happiness is in sacrificing for others’ sake;
Happiness is in doing acts of charity;
Happiness is when you’ve led a righteous life.
Happiness to some is in dreams alone;
Happiness to some doing risky feats;
Happiness to a few is in a sheer lazy life;
Happiness to me is in loving.

The role of God
What harm did
Chicks do to eagles,
Or deer to tigers,
Or goats to men,
For their loss of life?
Why do you murmur
About unworthiness
For your suffering?
Cure or endure.
God has no roll.

2000 Miles
Theres something I need to say
Im not sad youre gone away no way
Wont be calling information
Or waiting at the railway station
You walked out of my front door
I wasnt then but now Im sure
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
Had to get me to the church on time
To say that silly I do I do nursery rhyme
Youve been bitching at me for awhile
Say hey now baby dont you cramp my style
Dont go beating me like that
Im glad I wont be coming back
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you

Woman blinds man
A woman might turn vulnerable
Somewhere, sometime in her life.
A man is at wait for time and place
To turn a wolf on women.

Happiness defined.
Happiness is the feeling good,
A state where worry is absent.
Happiness is much sought after.
Happiness is the life's purpose.
To feed the senses gives happiness.
To feed ego gives happiness.
To spend libido gives happiness.
To feel safe also is happiness.
Let them come without prejudice
To the interest of others.
Discard such happiness that fails
In the conscience clearance.
Happiness that would accrue from
Showing mercy, giving pardon
And doing voluntary helps
Is higher as comes from goodwill.
