Nothingness- The need of the hour

Technology made me impatient. I'm always scrolling, I'm always checking my phone. In a fast-paced life, when people are trying to compete with one another, 'doing nothing' can be a really good thing. There is no time for us to do NOTHING. When there is, we are too impatient to lay low. Checking our phones every 2 mins, playing a game or two. Sitting idle with nothingness is extinct now. Extinction, like its counterpart, came fast. I didn't know what hit me, it was fast and exciting, but now it's just a habit which keeps on repeating every few minutes.

Suffering own demons

            I have many demons inside me which makes me what I am (along with the angels). I thought I had control over my demons but this irresistible force comes to me when I am weak. Demons feed on our weaknesses and make us weaker. Waiting to be released, angels lying in a closed beaker. Demons have taken control over them now. Will there ever be a revelation? Complete annihilation of demons. Or will I be destroyed in this annihilation? The question no one can answer. All I can do is suffer my own demons and find a way to fight them. The struggle is long and hard but one who walks on the broken glasses can understand the true softness of sand. In reality, glass is created by the fire between the sands. Truth is always in front of us but we choose to look behind.

Mind vs Matter

Attachment good or bad? A question that has been troubling many religions. We all had experiences of attachment in our life. But mine is weird though, can't make sense of it. A little while back I was in a place away from everyone I knew, miles from my comfort. I hated every moment of it, every hour, use to count my days backward to when I 'll leave this place and get back with my daily schedule and with all my life's comfort and privileges.  But some part of me wanted to miss that place, didn't want to leave. The final day of exile as I would say; I was back communicating with strangers, thinking that the days are over and I'm done with this. The fact is, that I have completed my 12 days of staying away from my comfort,  but when I am leaving which I wanted to from day one, I am getting this homesick feeling that I'm going to miss this place. All the time I had there, with myself, just me and my mind, and no one else existed. I was lonely but calm. I wasn't comfortable but I was at peace. The mind was seeking peace which I got there; peace of almost nothingness. 
In his entire life span, a man can want many things - money, car, lavish home, and power but in the end, it's the peace of mind that they seek. Peace cannot be bought by money, found by power, or by helping needy. It can be attained by knowing the mind, body, nature, and time. Knowing self is always the first step and the last step. But from the day we are born we try to figure out the world and its aspects. Finding self is like finding god. God needs to be found and respected. So find yourself and respect it. The peace will be found or peace will find you.
Here I am back with all my family, friends, and acquaintances talking, trying to figure out my career and my future. But my present is worried, restless, once again needs to feel my mind. The mind who has been confusing me all my life. There is an answer in this confusion which I haven't figured out yet. But soon will, till then it's just an unanswered mind trying to communicate with me in all sorts of language which I don't understand yet.
