date with life also
unfolds the date with death
as life and death
are connected
they are integral to each other
they are different poles of one rod
o death now its time
we must date
and explore the possibilities of life
which is there within death
o death its time for us
to talk now and hence lets meet
lets date with each other
yet lets not fix anything
what we are going to do on this date
lets date with each other
without any dogmas or rules
lets date with each other
without any presumptions or assumptions
on this date we prolong the journey
the journey to eternity
the journey till eternity
the journey beyond eternity
o death
i see no fear to date you
i feel no aloofness to date you
wouldn’t it be interesting
that you too will smile with me on this date
have you ever smiled on your own self
have you ever smiled without a reason
now don’t tell me that
you are beyond smiles of human gestures
nevertheless who told you
that smile is a human gesture
no it is not
smile is eternal
smile is eternity
a smiling date with death
this would be the gong of our meet
a smiling date with death
this would be the bible of our retreat
a smiling date with death
this would be the gift of our creed
o death
before we proceed
let me share deep gratitude to
not only this planet but
every being
every creature
every living and non living
entire cosmos
entire eternity
o death
before we proceed
let me share deep gratitude
to divine
to you
to this body mind consciousness
to everybody
to stars
to planets
to galaxies
to energies
to everything and every being
o death
before we proceed
let me ask for forgiveness
to everyone who are hurt
in this journey walking along
walking away on the path
where this body mind consciousness walked
let me ask forgiveness
to all those beings and things
who might have consciously or unconsciously
fallen into every kind of inconveniences and trouble
with my presence
with my behaviours
with my gestures
with my words
with my silence
with my entire self
o death
before we proceed
let me ask forgiveness
to entire cosmos
for all my naive mistakes
naive acts
ignorant works
o death
before we proceed
let me forgive
all those who have consciously or unconsciously
put me into every kind of inconvenience situations
who have butchered my heart
who have suffocated my entire being
i forgive everyone
and i forgive myself
o death
before we proceed
let me send this prayer
to entire cosmos
that love peace bliss prevails
in everything and every being
that let truth be revealed from untruth
let light emerges wherever there is darkness
o death
shall we now proceed together
on this smiling date
to merge into eternity
to be eternity
until eternity
and beyond…
