BARAKA

Today, I saw something which probably has changed me forever. It made me realize, that life only begins with one Breath but the end is Mukti (Liberation). It made me realize, what have we become, looking for NEXT updated cell phone or a gaming console. Sitting in our air conditioned offices, sipping green teas’ and black coffee. Earning lakhs, driving our shinny cars, thinking of sex as a salvation. Trying different cuisines, thinking that it’s a way of knowing the culture. Doing our regular classes of yoga or sessions of lotus sutra. Thinking it might make us liberated.

We forgot one basic thing about life which is ‘DEATH’.

I urge and request everyone to please watch a movie called ‘BARAKA’. It’s a documentary photographed and directed by Ron Fricke. It has no narration and just images and one of the most beautiful soundtracks. I cannot guarantee that how much you will like it or hate it, but i am sure about one thing, if you watch it non-stop for 97 minutes, straight of its running time. It will give more satisfaction then your one month of meditation into the void.

Thanks
